Un Dieu se dévoile : herméneutique processuelle d'Éz 16

Les penseurs de l’herméneutique du XXe siècle ont redéfini essentiellement l’humain comme un être en quête de sens, interprétant sans cesse le ‘monde’ à travers ‘son propre monde’, cette compréhension transformante contribuant à son devenir. Serait-il pertinent dans une recherche de sens qui caractérise une démarche de foi, d’utiliser des outils herméneutiques ouvrant les Écritures sur d’autres possibles que ce que la Tradition chrétienne propose aujourd’hui ? Le présent mémoire veut répondre par l’affirmative à ce défi, en appliquant une approche processuelle sur le chapitre 16 du livre d’Ézéchiel, un prophète avec lequel la tradition juive a gardé une certaine prudence et un texte particulièrement osé que la pastorale chrétienne a ignoré. Après une mise en situation qui trace les paramètres fondamentaux de la démarche entreprise dans ce mémoire (chapitre 1), une traduction littérale du texte hébreu est proposée, faisant ressortir les nuances que suggèrent les formes verbales et les éléments particuliers que révèle une analyse macro-syntaxique (chapitre 2); la méthode d’analyse processuelle choisie pour interpréter le texte est inédite dans le monde francophone, tout comme la perspective processuelle de l’étude telle qu’elle se déploie dans les chapitres 3 et 4 du mémoire. L’analyse débouche sur des propositions théologiques originales, redéfinissant notamment la Toute-Puissance divine comme un entêtement qui cherche à convaincre, et inscrivant le pardon divin au creux de la liberté et de la responsabilité humaines.

Trabalho, educação e movimentos sociais: um estudo sobre o saber e a atuação política dos pescadores da Colônia Z-16, no Município de Cametá-PA

Esta pesquisa teve como objeto de estudo os saberes dos trabalhadores da Colônia Z-16 construídos no trabalho. Objetivamos analisar o saber produzido pelo trabalho dos pescadores e a participação política desses sujeitos no contexto social de seus movimentos. Para o desenvolvimento deste estudo nos pautamos na abordagem qualitativa e optamos pelo estudo de caso, tendo como referência o materialismo histórico. Constituem os referenciais teóricos: Marx, Saviani, Frigotto, Schawrtz, Damasceno, Franco, Fischer, Machado, Kuenzer, Santos, entre outros. Analisamos os resultados das entrevistas que nos possibilitou chegar às seguintes conclusões: a) os pescadores desenvolvem seus saberes a partir do seu trabalho; b); os saberes dos trabalhadores entrevistados, são desenvolvidos de modo contraditório, em meio às relações estabelecidas e, ao mesmo tempo, confirmam a identidade da classe trabalhadora, mas também revelam valores próprios do capital; c) os trabalhadores compreendem a escola como meio de ascensão social e não como possibilidade de valorização de seus próprios saberes; d) a atuação política dos pescadores contribui para desenvolver o saber no e para seus trabalhos. Assim, percebemos que esta temática precisa ser aprofundada e a continuidade da reflexão pode favorecer o empoderamento dos trabalhadores.

Índices de trauma em pacientes submetidos à laparotomia

OBJETIVO: O trauma é um problema de saúde pública de enormes proporções. Constitui-se na principal causa de óbitos na população jovem. O Major Trauma Outcome Study (MTOS) é um estudo descritivo e retrospectivo da gravidade das lesões e evolução dos pacientes, considerado como o maior arquivo contemporâneo de informações descritivas de traumatizados. O objetivo do presente estudo é comparar o cálculo retrospectivo do New Injury Severity Score (NISS) com o Injury Severity Score (ISS) já calculado prospectivamente, utilizando o Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS) e uma simples modificação deste índice, denominado de NTRISS (New Trauma and Injury Severity Score), e também comparar esta população submetida à laparotomia com os pacientes do MTOS. MÉTODO: Foram estudados 1.380 pacientes adultos traumatizados e submetidos à laparotomia na Disciplina de Cirurgia do Trauma da Unicamp, em Campinas, durante um período de oito anos. Os dados avaliados foram: demográficos, causa do trauma (fechado ou penetrante, ferimento por projétil de arma de fogo ou arma branca), estado fisiológico na admissão (RTS), diagnóstico anatômico de lesões (ATI, ISS e NISS), probabilidade de sobrevida utilizando o TRISS e o NTRISS, e a evolução do paciente (sobrevivência ou óbito). Foram utilizadas as estatísticas Z e W, inicialmente descritas por Flora, a fim de comparar a predição de óbitos ou sobreviventes com o estudo controle (MTOS). RESULTADOS: A maioria dos pacientes (88,3%) era do sexo masculino e jovem (média de idade de 30,4 anos). O ferimento por projétil de arma de fogo foi o mecanismo de trauma mais freqüente, com 641 casos (46,4%). Quatrocentos e trinta pacientes (31,2%) sofreram trauma fechado. As médias do ATI, ISS e NISS foram, respectivamente, de 12,3, 17,6 e 22,1. A taxa global de mortalidade foi de 16,8% e os pacientes com trauma contuso tiveram a maior mortalidade (29,3%). O NISS identificou melhor os sobreviventes e óbitos se comparado ao ISS, obtendo-se uma maior especificidade com o NTRISS. Foi observado um número significativamente menor de sobreviventes do que o esperado pelo estudo basal, com Z -16,24 com o TRISS e Z -9,40 se aplicado o NTRISS. Variações no valor da estatística W para cada paciente mostraram uma diferença no número de óbitos equivalente a 7,89 mais casos de óbito do que o esperado pelo MTOS, por 100 pacientes tratados, ao se empregar o TRISS, enquanto que estes valores foram reduzidos para 5,14 utilizando-se o NTRISS. CONCLUSÕES: Os métodos utilizados para cálculo da probabilidade de sobrevivência apresentaram limitações, particularmente nesta população com predomínio dos traumas penetrantes. O NISS, com o seu derivado NTRISS, foi o escore que obteve uma melhor predição de sobrevivência se comparado com o ISS. Os resultados obtidos com o TRISS e NTRISS foram estatisticamente piores do que os do MTOS, porém este processo de monitorização destes pacientes traumatizados tem sido importante para assegurar uma condição continuada de controle de qualidade.

Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)

Characterization, and crystal structure of thiophenyl-2-methylidene-2- aminophenol

The Schiff base thiophenyl-2-methylidene-2-aminophenol (ImineOH) is obtained from a stoichiometric mixture of 2-thiophenecarboxaldehyde and 2-aminophenol in ethanol under reflux at 90 C. Its crystal structure is determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. ImineOH packs in an orthorhombic unit cell in the Pbca space group with the unit cell parameters a = 16.942(4) Å, b = 13.4395(11) Å, and c = 17.5857(12) Å, V = 4004.1(10) Å3, Z = 16. Strong hydrogen bonds are present in the ImineOH structure. Apart from the X-ray study, ImineOH was characterized by elemental analysis (CHN-S) and FT-IR (4000 cm-1 to 400 cm-1), UV-Vis and 13C, 1H, and 15N NMR spectroscopic measurements. © 2013 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.

A proteome signature for intrauterine growth restriction derived from multifactorial analysis of mass spectrometry-based cord blood serum profiling

Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is defined as a condition in which the fetus does not reach its genetically given growth potential, resulting in low birth weight. IUGR is an important cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality, thus contributing substantially to medically indicated preterm birth in order to prevent fetal death. We subjected umbilical cord blood serum samples either belonging to the IUGR group (n = 15) or to the control group (n = 15) to fractionation by affinity chromatography using a bead system with hydrophobic interaction capabilities. So prepared protein mixtures were analyzed by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometric profiling. The six best differentiating ion signals at m/z 8205, m/z 8766, m/z 13 945, m/z 15 129, m/z 15 308, and m/z 16 001 were collectively assigned as IUGR proteome signature. Separation confidence of our IUGR proteome signature reached a sensitivity of 0.87 and a specificity of 0.93. Assignment of ion signals in the mass spectra to specific proteins was substantiated by SDS-PAGE in conjunction with peptide mass fingerprint analysis of cord blood serum proteins. One constituent of this proteome signature, apolipoprotein C-III(0) , a derivative lacking glycosylation, has been found more abundant in the IUGR cord blood serum samples, irrespective of gestational age. Hence, we suggest apolipoprotein C-III(0) as potential key-marker of the here proposed IUGR proteome signature, as it is a very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) member and as such involved in triglyceride metabolism that itself is discussed as being of importance in IUGR pathogenesis. Our results indicate that subtle alterations in protein glycosylation need to be considered for improving our understanding of the pathomechanisms in IUGR.

Static and dynamic characteristics of cerebral blood flow during the resting state in schizophrenia

Background: The cerebral network that is active during rest and is deactivated during goal-oriented activity is called the default mode network (DMN). It appears to be involved in self-referential mental activity. Atypical functional connectivity in the DMN has been observed in schizophrenia. One hypothesis suggests that pathologically increased DMN connectivity in schizophrenia is linked with a main symptom of psychosis, namely, misattribution of thoughts. Methods: A resting-state pseudocontinuous arterial spin labeling (ASL) study was conducted to measure absolute cerebral blood flow (CBF) in 34 schizophrenia patients and 27 healthy controls. Using independent component analysis (ICA), the DMN was extracted from ASL data. Mean CBF and DMN connectivity were compared between groups using a 2-sample t test. Results: Schizophrenia patients showed decreased mean CBF in the frontal and temporal regions (P < .001). ICA demonstrated significantly increased DMN connectivity in the precuneus (x/y/z = -16/-64/38) in patients than in controls (P < .001). CBF was not elevated in the respective regions. DMN connectivity in the precuneus was significantly correlated with the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale scores (P < .01). Conclusions: In schizophrenia patients, the posterior hub-which is considered the strongest part of the DMN-showed increased DMN connectivity. We hypothesize that this increase hinders the deactivation of the DMN and, thus, the translation of cognitive processes from an internal to an external focus. This might explain symptoms related to defective self-monitoring, such as auditory verbal hallucinations or ego disturbances.

The triplite–triploidite supergroup: structural modulation in wagnerite, discreditation of magniotriplite, and the new mineral hydroxylwagnerite

Electron-microprobe analysis, single-crystal X-ray diffraction with an area detector, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy show that minerals related to wagnerite, triplite and triploidite, which are monoclinic Mg, Fe and Mn phosphates with the formula Me2+ 2PO4(F,OH), constitute a modulated series based on the average triplite structure. Modulation occurs along b and may be commensurate with (2b periodicity) or incommensurate but generally close to integer values (∼3b, ∼5b, ∼7b, ∼9b), i.e. close to polytypic behaviour. As a result, the Mg- and F-dominant minerals magniotriplite and wagnerite can no longer be considered polymorphs of Mg2PO4F, i.e., there is no basis for recognizing them as distinct species. Given that wagnerite has priority (1821 vs. 1951), the name magniotriplite should be discarded in favour of wagnerite. Hydroxylwagnerite, end-member Mg2PO4OH, occurs in pyrope megablasts along with talc, clinochlore, kyanite, rutile and secondary apatite in two samples from lenses of pyrope–kyanite–phengite–quartz-schist within metagranite in the coesite-bearing ultrahigh-pressure metamorphic unit of the Dora-Maira Massif, western Alps, Vallone di Gilba, Val Varaita, Piemonte, Italy. Electron microprobe analyses of holotype hydroxylwagnerite and of the crystal with the lowest F content gave in wt%: P2O5 44.14, 43.99; SiO2 0.28, 0.02; SO3 –, 0.01; TiO2 0.20, 0.16; Al2O3 0.06, 0.03; MgO 48.82, 49.12; FeO 0.33, 0.48; MnO 0.01, 0.02; CaO 0.12, 0.10; Na2O 0.01, –; F 5.58, 4.67; H2O (calc) 2.94, 3.36; –O = F 2.35, 1.97; Sum 100.14, 99.98, corresponding to (Mg1.954Fe0.007Ca0.003Ti0.004Al0.002Na0.001)Σ=1.971(P1.003Si0.008)Σ=1.011O4(OH0.526F0.474)Σ=1 and (Mg1.971Fe0.011Ca0.003Ti0.003Al0.001)Σ=1.989(P1.002Si0.001)Σ=1.003O4(OH0.603F0.397)Σ=1, respectively. Due to the paucity of material, H2O could not be measured, so OH was calculated from the deficit in F assuming stoichiometry, i.e., by assuming F + OH = 1 per formula unit. Holotype hydroxylwagnerite is optically biaxial (+), α 1.584(1), β 1.586(1), γ 1.587(1) (589 nm); 2V Z(meas.) = 43(2)°; orientation Y = b. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction gives monoclinic symmetry, space group P21/c, a = 9.646(3) Å, b = 12.7314(16) Å, c = 11.980(4) Å, β = 108.38(4) , V = 1396.2(8) Å3, Z = 16, i.e., hydroxylwagnerite is the OH-dominant analogue of wagnerite [β-Mg2PO4(OH)] and a high-pressure polymorph of althausite, holtedahlite, and α- and ε-Mg2PO4(OH). We suggest that the group of minerals related to wagnerite, triplite and triploidite constitutes a triplite–triploidite super-group that can be divided into F-dominant phosphates (triplite group), OH-dominant phosphates (triploidite group), O-dominant phosphates (staněkite group) and an OH-dominant arsenate (sarkinite). The distinction among the three groups and a potential fourth group is based only on chemical features, i.e., occupancy of anion or cation sites. The structures of these minerals are all based on the average triplite structure, with a modulation controlled by the ratio of Mg, Fe2+, Fe3+ and Mn2+ ionic radii to (O,OH,F) ionic radii.

A study protocol of a randomised controlled trial to measure the effects of an augmented prescribed exercise programme (APEP) for frail older medical patients in the acute setting

Background: Older adults experience functional decline in hospital leading to increased healthcare burden and morbidity. The benefits of augmented exercise in hospital remain uncertain. The aim of this trial is to measure the short and longer-term effects of augmented exercise for older medical in-patients on their physical performance, quality of life and health care utilisation. Design and Methods: Two hundred and twenty older medical patients will be blindly randomly allocated to the intervention or sham groups. Both groups will receive usual care (including routine physiotherapy care) augmented by two daily exercise sessions. The sham group will receive stretching and relaxation exercises while the intervention group will receive tailored strengthening and balance exercises. Differences between groups will be measured at baseline, discharge, and three months. The primary outcome measure will be length of stay. The secondary outcome measures will be healthcare utilisation, activity (accelerometry), physical performance (Short Physical Performance Battery), falls history in hospital and quality of life (EQ-5D-5 L). Discussion: This simple intervention has the potential to transform the outcomes of the older patient in the acute setting.

Afectividad evolutiva y diferencial de 10 a 16 años : estudio experimental a través del Z.Test.

Destacar la importancia que tiene la educación afectiva desde la infancia, y por ello los educadores deben asumir esa tarea, si quieren construir hombres equilibrados.. El trabajo ha sido realizado con un grupo de sujetos,elegidos al azar, divididos para su estudio de acuerdo con la edad y el sexo de los mismos. 280 sujetos de edades comprendidas entre 10 y 16 años. Estudiantes de EGB Y BUP, en su mayoría, y un número mínimo de Formación Profesional.. Los protocolos han sido recogidos en un número variable entre 30 y 60 sujetos según la referencia de Zulliger. Se ha tenido en cuenta las condiciones del aula y la edad de los sujetos. Reunido el grupo concreto al que se va a someter el test, y una vez cumplidas todas las instrucciones que señala Zulliger, cada sujeto responde en su hoja de protocolo. Una vez comenzada la prueba se debe controlar el tiempo de la misma, no debiendo pasar de 20 minutos.. En la primera parte se utilizan instrumentos de carácter bibliográfico, mientras que en la segunda, siendo de carácter práctico, se utiliza el test Z-test.. Elaboración estadística en la que se ha hallado el tanto por ciento.. Los resultados, más significativos, a los que se ha llegado han sido entre otros: Con respecto a la estructura propia de la afectividad, se puede afirmar que tanto los chicos como las chicas predomina el tipo de afectividad insuficientemente adaptada, lábil, impulsiva y sensible a los estímulos. Esto puede ser debido al momento físico y psicológico que estos sujetos están viviendo, pues es cuando se operan todos los cambios puberales, y es también cuando el sujeto se empieza a abrir a un mundo totalmente desconocido para él, y produce desequilibrio e inestabilidad, reflejándose en su afectividad. Sin embargo es preciso subrayar que esta impulsividad es más acusada en los chicos que en las chicas. En lo que respecta a la afectividad interior, hace que el tipo de afectividad lábil aparezca al exterior estabilizada y modificada en su dominio normal, significa que el sujeto la reprime de una manera natural por la introversión, la inteligencia y la visión de conjunto de la situación.. La prueba proyectiva de Z test nos permite llegar al estudio de la afectividad de una forma experimental a través de las respuestas provistas de contenido afectivo, e indirectamente a través del tipo vivencial de los sujetos. Con respecto a la afectividad interior resulta una afectividad lábil. El refrenado de la afectividad en su dominio normal es suficientemente aceptable en los dos sexos, aunque con una mejor proporción en las chicas. El tipo vivencial predominante en los dos sexos es el extratensivo. El indice de agresividad y de la adaptación social es mucho más elevado en las chicas que en los chicos. Ante esto, la postura del educador debe ser más que nunca en esta edad de diálogo, de apertura, de aceptación, de saber escuchar. Por ello tanto la familia como los educadores tienen parte activa en la educación afectiva de los adolescentes..

Cu and Fe metallic ions-mediated oxidation of low-density lipoproteins studied by NMR, TEM and Z-scan technique

In this work we report on a study of the morphological changes of LDL induced in vitro by metallic ions (Cu(2+) and Fe(3+)). These modifications were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance and the Z-scan technique. The degree of oxidative modification of LDL was determined by the TBARS and lipid hydroperoxides assays. It is shown that distinct pathways for modifying lipoproteins lead to different morphological transformations of the particles characterized by changes in size and/or shape of the resulting particles, and by the tendency to induce aggregation of the particles. There were no evidence of melting of particles promoted by oxidative processes with Cu and Fe. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

The Las Campanas/AAT Rich Cluster Survey - II. The environmental dependence of galaxy colours in clusters at z similar to 0.1

We present a photometric investigation of the variation in galaxy colour with environment in 11 X-ray-luminous clusters at 0.07 less than or equal to z less than or equal to 0.16 taken from the Las Campanas/AAT Rich Cluster Survey. We study the properties of the galaxy populations in individual clusters, and take advantage of the homogeneity of the sample to combine the clusters together to investigate weaker trends in the composite sample. We find that modal colours of galaxies lying on the colour-magnitude relation in the clusters become bluer by d(B - R)/dr(p) = -0.022 +/- 0.004 from the cluster core out to a projected radius of r(p) = 6 Mpc, further out in radius than any previous study. We also examine the variation in modal galaxy colour with local galaxy density, 2, for galaxies lying close to the colour-magnitude relation, and find that the median colour shifts bluewards by d(B - R)/d log(10)(Sigma) = -0.076 +/- 0.009 with decreasing local density across three orders of magnitude. We show that the position of the red envelope of galaxies in the colour-magnitude relation does not vary as a function of projected radius or density within the clusters, suggesting that the change in the modal colour results from an increasing fraction of bluer galaxies within the colour-magnitude relation, rather than a change in the colours of the whole population. We show that this shift in the colour-magnitude relations with projected radius and local density is greater than that expected from the changing morphological mix based on the local morphology-density relation. We therefore conclude that we are seeing a real change in the properties of galaxies on the colour-magnitude relation in the outskirts of clusters. The simplest interpretation of this result (and similar constraints in local clusters) is that an increasing fraction of galaxies in the lower density regions at large radii within clusters exhibit signatures of star formation in the recent past, signatures which are not seen in the evolved galaxies in the highest density regions.

Study of (W/Z)H production and Higgs boson couplings using H -> WW* decays with the ATLAS detector

A search for Higgs boson production in association with a W or Z boson, in the H→ W W ∗ decay channel, is performed with a data sample collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies s√=7 TeV and 8 TeV, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 4.5 fb−1 and 20.3 fb−1, respectively. The WH production mode is studied in two-lepton and three-lepton final states, while two- lepton and four-lepton final states are used to search for the ZH production mode. The observed significance, for the combined W H and ZH production, is 2.5 standard deviations while a significance of 0.9 standard deviations is expected in the Standard Model Higgs boson hypothesis. The ratio of the combined W H and ZH signal yield to the Standard Model expectation, μ V H , is found to be μ V H  = 3.0 − 1.1 + 1.3 (stat.) − 0.7 + 1.0 (sys.) for the Higgs boson mass of 125.36 GeV. The W H and ZH production modes are also combined with the gluon fusion and vector boson fusion production modes studied in the H → W W ∗ → ℓνℓν decay channel, resulting in an overall observed significance of 6.5 standard deviations and μ ggF + VBF + VH = 1. 16 − 0.15 + 0.16 (stat.) − 0.15 + 0.18 (sys.). The results are interpreted in terms of scaling factors of the Higgs boson couplings to vector bosons (κ V ) and fermions (κ F ); the combined results are: |κ V | = 1.06 − 0.10 + 0.10 , |κ F | = 0. 85 − 0.20 + 0.26 .
