From Ossau and Iraty to PDO Ossau-Iraty

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to understand how a geographical indication (GI) is built through time and how its (non)appropriation by local producers shapes it. The reciprocity of such process is also considered: how the creation of a GI changes local relationships between producers, within the GI and out of it? The case of Ossau-Iraty is relevant: in south-west of France, this protected designation of origin (PDO) has been based on two distinct regions: Bearn (Ossau) and Pays Basque (Iraty). Since then, most producers of Bearn have rejected this PDO. Design/methodology/approach The author adopts a diachronic perspective: the trajectory of the local dairy ewe sector is described, focusing on the trajectory of on-farm cheese makers from Bearn and Pays Basque and the trajectory of Ossau-Iraty. Based on different methods (qualitative interviews and archive research), this paper aims at analyzing the interactions within such heterogeneous networks. Findings When the PDO was created (1980), the opposition between producers of Bearn and Pays Basque was based on strong senses of place, which would be translated in a different perception of tradition: to Bearn producers, PDO Ossau-Iraty would be an industrial cheese, in which they did not recognize their product and themselves. With time, the producers who have been involved in the PDO worked on its specifications. The recognition of symbolic practices such as on-farm production or Summer pasture production, the recognition of differences between Basque cheese and Bearn cheese are changes that contribute to the evolution of perceptions within the local producers’ community. The author observes a recent convergence between Basque producers and Bearn producers, as their distinct products share common and strong qualifications within PDO Ossau-Iraty that contribute to their respective valorization. However, it seems to occur at an institutional level and the adhesion of the local producers might still be at stakes. Research limitations/implications A statistical study could reinforce the author’s exploratory and historical research. Furthermore, it would have been relevant to take local inhabitants and local consumers into account, as they have participated in the products’ qualifications as well. Originality/value A long-term analysis (40 years) contributes to better understand how cheeses are valorized and how such process is based on controversial processes. It contributes to root GIs into local histories, which are nor as consensual neither as uniform as we would primarily think, and to identity levers for sustainable local development.
Extraosseous Aneurysmal Bone Cyst at Hypothenar Area in an Adult Male- A Case Report

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Aneurysmal Bone Cyst (ABC) is a benign tumour of bone which develops most frequently in the metaphysis of long bones and the posterior elements of vertebral bodies. The ABC generally occurs during the first two decades of life and has a slight predilection for the female sex. Radiographically, ABC is usually eccentric, lytic and expansile with well defined margins. Soft tissue or extra osseous ABC is extremely rare in occurrence, with only few case reports found in literature. Extraosseous ABC is usually found in soft tissues of lower limb and arm. Its occurrence in soft tissue of hands is extremely rare. Hereby, authors reported a case of a 30-year-old male patient who had swelling of approximately 9×6 cm in hypothenar area of left hand starting proximally from the wrist crease and extending distally till distal palmar crease and from the ulnar border of the palm till the mid palmer area. Authors described this case to highlight this entity, at an uncommon location (hypothenar area of palm) and importance of excisional biopsy in such cases.
Behavior of Two‐Span Continuous Bridge under Truck Axle Loading

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Reactions, moments, displacements, and rotations due to axle loading in a two‐span continuous, composite‐steel girder test bridge were analyzed and compared with those calculated by finite element, American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO), and the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) analysis methods. The simulated truck axle loads were applied on the test bridge on one, two, and three lanes to maximize positive moment at 0.4 L and negative moment at 1.0 L. The results of the study show that finite element analysis most accurately predicted the bridge behavior under the truck axle loading. The AASHTO and NCHRP analysis methods gave inaccurate results, since the loads were applied away from the supports.
Breaking with tradition: Fischer—Tropsch gas loops and modelling vapor—liquid—liquid equilibrium

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Fischer—Tropsch gas loops have been in use for nearly a century, producing synthetic fuels and petrochemicals. Yet there still remain many opportunities to expand its uses, update the gas loop with new technology, as well as better understand at a fundamental level the way the products behave. The following chapters address each of these three points, trying to bring new insight into the uses and behavior of one of the most promising technologies currently available for producing synthetic fuels and petrochemicals. Rather than focusing on the synthetic fuel production of Fischer—Tropsch synthesis, the gas loops significant by-product of steam was applied to the steam assisted gravity drainage recovery of bitumen. It was found that Fischer—Tropsch technology can be used in tandem with traditional once through steam generation methods to produce the necessary steam, while also lowering the CO2 emissions and producing liquid hydrocarbon products, diluent for bitumen transport, and solvent for steam co-injection. In the second part of the thesis water electrolysis is integrated into cobalt and iron based Fischer—Tropsch gas loops and compared with traditional Fischer—Tropsch gas loops which use air separation units instead. The carbon efficiency of the Fischer—Tropsch gas loop was found to be significantly increased for both cases and renewable energy was found to work well with the iron-based Fischer—Tropsch gas loop design. The syncrude recovery section of the Fischer—Tropsch gas loop has received little attention in literature regarding oxygenate partitioning between the aqueous and organic liquid phases and gas phase. Several thermodynamics models were tested for accuracy in oxygenate liquid—liquid and vapor—liquid—liquid equilibrium partitioning. The UNIQUAC model was found to be the best model for liquid—liquid calculations and when using the Hayden O’Connell was found to be the most reliable model for predicting vapor—liquid—liquid equilibrium compositions.
Indication of natural gas migration and accumulation by three-dimensional fluorescence characteristics of gas-field waters: A case study of the Permian-Triassic in the central-western Sichuan Basin

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Permian-Triassic natural gas migration paths and accumulation patterns in the central-west Sichuan region have been studied by way of examining the three-dimensional shape, light intensity excitation and fingerprint characteristics of aromatic hydrocarbons fluorescence spectra of gas-field waters. The Permian-Triassic gas-field waters in the central-western Sichuan Basin have (condensate) gas reservoir characteristics, where three subclasses (base peak, double peak and odd peak, but mainly the stable type of base peak subclass) and seven types of three-dimensional fluorescence characteristics have been identified. Three-dimensional fluorescence characteristics of the waters of the Permian-Middle and Lower Triassic differ greatly from that of the Upper Triassic Xujiahe Formation. The former is mainly influenced by hydrocarbons from high to over mature Lower Paleozoic marine shales and the Upper Permian Longtan Formation coals, but the latter is mainly influenced by its own source rock maturity differences and organic matter type difference. Research on the three-dimensional fluorescence characteristics indicates that the Upper Permian and Middle to Lower Triassic reservoirs in the Moxi structure are predominately dominated by vertical migration and accumulation. Gas in the reservoirs below the Leikoupo Formation originates mainly from the Longtan Formation coals, while the Leikoupo Formation gas reservoir includes gas from a gypsum-salt rock section. Gas in the Xujiahe gas reservoir in the Pingluoba structure is mainly migrated from central-southern faults and the reservoirs have strong lateral heterogeneity. Key words: Sichuan Basin, Permian, Triassic, gas-field waters, three-dimensional fluorescence, type, gas migration, gas accumulation

Clinical assessment of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin as a potential diagnostic marker for neonatal sepsis: a prospective cohort study

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Sepsis is a life-threatening condition associated with high morbidity and mortality rates among neonates. Clinical diagnosis is limited due to the neonates' unspecific signs and symptoms as well as the long time required to obtain the blood culture results. Consequently, there is an urgent need for new biomarkers to early diagnose neonatal sepsis. We aimed to evaluate Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) diagnostic performance to detect neonatal sepsis. We enrolled 30 neonates with sepsis admitted to the neonatal intensive care units and 30 age- and sex-matched healthy neonates recruited from the neonatal outpatient clinic during their routine follow-up visits. We measured NGAL levels by sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, the C-reactive protein (CRP) with nephelometry technique using BN II nephelometer, and the complete blood count by Mindray BC-6800 analysers. NGAL, CRP, TLC, haemoglobin, and platelet levels showed significant differences between cases and control (all p < .001). Of the 30 neonates with sepsis, 17 neonates (56.7%) survived. At 0 h, the NGAL level showed no statistically significant difference between the non-survivors and survivors' groups; however, after 96 h, NGAL was significantly higher in the non-survivors group (p ˂ .001). Our diagnostic analysis showed that NGAL levels have strong discrimination power to early differentiate neonates with sepsis; at the 475.00 pg/ml cut-off value, NGAL showed both sensitivity and specificity of 100% with an area under curve of 100%. Conclusion: Our study suggests that NGAL could be a promising biomarker for neonatal sepsis detection. Further studies with larger sample sizes and survival analysis are warranted to confirm this finding and to clarify the efficacy of NGAL in survival prediction. Key findingsNGAL level was high in neonates with sepsisNGAL level was high in non-survived neonatesNGAL could be a promising diagnostic marker for sepsis.
Photoinduced melting of superconductivity in the high-Tc superconductor La2-xSrxCuO4 probed by time-resolved optical and THz techniques

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Dynamics of depletion and recovery of superconducting state in La2-xSrxCuO_4 thin films is investigated utilizing optical pump-probe and optical pump - THz probe techniques as a function of temperature and excitation fluence. The absorbed energy density required to suppress superconductivity is found to be about 8 times higher than the thermodynamically determined condensation energy density and nearly temperature independent between 4 and 25 K. These findings indicate that during the time when superconducting state suppression takes place (~0.7 ps), a large part (nearly 90%) of the energy is transferred to the phonons with energy lower than twice the maximum value of of the SC gap and only 10% is spent on Cooper pair breaking.
Türkiye Türkçesi&#039;nde su ve kullanımı üzerine geleneksel kavramlar

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The relationship between humans and water has existed since the beginning of human history. The effective ability to use water has caused the development or the decline of many civilizations in history. The ruins found in numerous Turkish settlements, especially in the Anadolu region, have proved the cultural richness of water use among Turks. As a result of this richness, many definitions and terms such as water, water cycle, soil-water-plant relationships and water use have been made. In this study, the words taken from “Derleme Sözlüğü” related to water and water use in Turkey Turkish are investigated and classified into seven groups. These groups are: hydrologic processes for water input, headwaters, qualification of water, soil-water-plant relationships, water transport and irrigation. Finally, this paper demonstrates that Turkish has a large word pool from which possible problems of nominating water related terms are solved.
Getting to know Mark, a homeless alcohol-dependent artist, as he finds his way out of the river

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Managed Alcohol Programs (MAPs) are a relatively recent addition to the repertoire of harm reduction approaches for persons experiencing severe alcohol dependence. In these settings, clients, who are typically homeless, are provided with a maintenance amount of alcohol while residing in a shelter setting. This case study examines the living experience of a homeless alcohol-dependent client of a MAP in an effort to articulate the process factors related to engagement with this form of treatment. The participant, a 48-year-old white male, participated in a series of qualitative interviews that took place prior to admission, immediately following admission, following re-admission, and after completion of the program over the course of 18 months. A grounded theory approach to data analysis was undertaken. The findings suggest that the primary utility of the MAP was in stabilizing a range of problems such that he was provided with the time, energy, and resources necessary to engage in the critically important task of constructing valued identity, place, and meaning and purpose in life.
Drivers and Predictors of Catastrophic Health Expenditure Associated with Long-Term Medical Conditions for Outpatient Visits at Public Health Facilities in Bayelsa State

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Background: Long-term medical conditions (LTMCs) now dominate global disease burden, requiring lifelong care and frequent hospital visits, which impose significant financial strain on households. This study quantified direct costs, measured the prevalence of catastrophic health expenditure (CHE) and identified the biggest cost drivers among patients with LTMCs using public health facilities in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State. Methods: A cross-sectional survey of 339 adult patients with LTMCs, namely Hypertension (HTN), Diabetes mellitus (DM), Tuberculosis (TB), and Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). Healthcare costs were calculated to reflect the average monthly costs. Patients whose monthly direct cost as a proportion of monthly household income was more than 10% were classified as having incurred Catastrophic Health Expenditure (CHE). Results: The median age was 50 years (IQR=40-60). Per clinic visit, the total direct and direct medical costs were ₦3700 and ₦3000 respectively. Patients with non-communicable diseases, multi-morbidity, health insurance coverage, and the elderly incurred higher direct costs. The costs of prescribed drugs were the drivers of direct medical costs. About 33% of respondents experienced CHE. The predictors of CHE were Age (>65 years) and whether the patient received a drug prescription during a clinic visit. Conclusion: This study highlights the substantial economic burden faced by patients with LTMCs accessing care in a public hospital.Overall, findings underscore critical areas for policy interventions such as age-sensitive financial protection policies, enhanced drug affordability policies and government funding support for NCDs to mitigate financial hardship for the elderly and those with complex conditions.
Generalists neglect psychiatry

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

EDITOR,--The recent report by the Royal Colleges of Physicians and Psychiatrists highlighting the psychological care of medical patients emphasises the importance of general doctors being able to detect and assess the presence of common psychiatric disorders.1 2 Most patients with psychiatric illness are not seen by psychiatrists, with only just over a quarter of psychiatrically ill patients actually being diagnosed.3 There must therefore be an increased emphasis on the detection of psychiatric illness …
A Critical Appraisal of Marshal Hodgson’s View of Islam Vis-à-Vis Cumulative and Discursive Traditions

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The article engages closely with Marshall C. Hodgson's view of Islam in his theory of Islamicate civilization. Despite his methodological consciousness and various revisions he introduced in the study of Islamic civilization, he failed to do the same in his conception of Islam. This contribution looks at three relevant aspects of Hodgson's take on Islam. Apart from explaining problems inherent in his conception of Islam, I examine the relative efficacy of the view shared in some important ways between Hodgson and Smith. To this end, first, I argue that Hodgson's every allusion of Islam breathes dualism. Even though he was indeed well aware of this dualism, he barely succeeded in accounting for it, either historically or in Islamic tradition. Second, I try to make a theoretical link between this view of Hodgson and Wilfred C. Smith. I also compliment this with a review of some of the key counter arguments posited. Third, the article ends with a brief comparative assessment of W. C. Smith's cumulative tradition, Talal Asad's discursive tradition, and Shahab Ahmed's "coherence" in the face of "outright contradictions" thesis.
Perceptions on Accommodation Tax: A Comparative Study on both Turkish and British Tourists Visiting Fethiye, Turkey

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Tourism stands out as one of the largest industries in the service sector within national and international economies. Opposite to its positive economic contributions, the tourism industry has negative environmental and socio-cultural impacts at local, national or international levels. Therefore, more financial resources are required to reduce the negative effects of tourism. One way to create new financial resources is to introduce tourism-based taxes. Tourism-based taxes indirectly collected under different names e.g. city tax or accommodation tax have recently emerged in many countries in the world. Therefore, the overall aim of this study was to find out the perceptions and attitudes of the foreign and national tourists on accommodation tax within the framework of sustainable tourism in Turkey. The study was carried out on both Turkish and British tourists in the destination of Fethiye, Turkey. This study pioneered on the subject of tourism based tax in Turkey as the bill of tourism based tax was passed through the Turkish Parliament at the time of the study conducted. The data were collected by a questionnaire survey. Then, the data were analysed and the results showed that both Turkish and British tourists were consenting (willing) for paying the tourism based tax. The study further showed that any price increase associated with the tourism based tax would not affect both foreign and national tourists’ holiday preferences to Fethiye, Turkey.
The influence of clients, as a dimension of the relational capital, on the product-process innovativeness

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

The complexity of the business world had increased, in managers and researchers, the will to find new competitive factors within the firms that permit to achieve sustainable competitive advantage. In this concern the knowledge-based view of the firm emphasizes knowledge as a resource that reveals advantages to the firms. And the intellectual capital represents the management of those knowledge-based assets that are valuable to the firm. On the other hand, and despite the importance of innovation and innovativeness within today's economy, we know little about how intellectual capital of the firm can contribute to a superior innovation at the firm level. Investigating this linkage we have made a survey to 68 firms working on the auto components sector, established in the Northern of Spain and Northern of Portugal, and we found firstly, that innovativeness has two main dimensions, perfectly differentiated, the product-process innovation and the management innovation; secondly that the clients (relational capital dimension) influences differently each type of innovativeness capacity. We found that the clients influences directly, only, the product-process innovativeness. Moreover, in our study, clients had no direct influence on the management innovativeness. These results highlight the importance of the dimension client of the relational capital on the innovativeness performance and more broadly, highlight the value of intellectual capital as a competitive advantage in contemporary time.

Learning curve and short-term outcomes of modularized LADG for advanced gastric cancer

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG) is a complicated procedure. To reduce the difficulty of the operation and standardize the surgical procedure, we explored a new operation mode, which we termed modularized LADG (MLADG). To further extend the new operation mode, we conducted this study to evaluate the short-term outcomes of MLADG for advanced gastric cancer, and determine the learning curve. Data from 100 consecutive patients who received LADG between October 2016 and October 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Short-term outcomes, such as operation time and intraoperative blood loss, were evaluated, and the learning curve was calculated. For MLADG, the mean operation time was 168.2 ± 13.0 minutes, the mean intraoperative blood loss was 93.6 ± 29.1 ml, the mean number of harvested lymph nodes was 28.6 ± 4.2, and conversion to open surgery occurred in only 1 case. In addition, MLADG had an acceptable postoperative complication incidence and fast postoperative recovery. After the first 20 cases, the operation skill reached a mature and stable level. Our results indicate that MLADG is an oncologically feasible and technically safe surgical procedure. For the trainees with rich experience in open distal gastrectomy, the learning curve is considered to be completed after 20 MLADG cases.
