Le paysan de Paris de Louis Aragon: Écriture du labyrinthe et labyrinthe de l'écriture

Dans les années vingt, Louis Aragon, à l’exemple de ses contemporains pris dans l’aventure surréaliste, recherche une réalité occultée au cours de ses promenades dans les profondeurs de la ville. Son roman surréaliste, Le paysan de Paris, témoigne de cette recherche et l’image du labyrinthe apparaît dynamisée dans sa fonction archétypale car elle s’inscrit non seulement au niveau du narré mais aussi de la narration. A travers la description de lieux urbains tels que le passage de l’Opéra et les Buttes Chaumont, le labyrinthe euphémisé représente le lieu des rencontres, des passions interdites et des correspondances les plus inattendues entre les différents élements du réel. Il devient ainsi l’espace de la quête initiatique brillant par l’absence du Minotaure et la présence de la femme initiatrice. L’enjeu est double pour le narrateur/auteur : vivre l’initiation à la vie érotique et recréer la magie du surréel. Au niveau de la narration, le récit surréaliste devient lui-même labyrinthique, et son auteur apparaît en Dédale prenant le risque de perdre son lecteur au fil de nombreux récits secondaires et divers documents visuels qui viennent interrompre le cours du récit initial. Une nouvelle écriture, l’écriture labyrinthique, est en marche.In 1920s, Louis Aragon, following his soul mates in the surrealist adventure, searched for the hidden reality during his wanderings in the depths of the city. Le paysan de Paris is a living document of this quest and one can find in that novel a revitalised image of the labyrinth, an archetype brought to life in both the story that is told and the way in which it is narrated. The description of urban places like the Passage of the Opera or the Buttes-Chaumont reveals a euphemised labyrinth, a place of encounters and forbidden passions and full of the most unexpected correspondences between diverse elements of the real. It becomes the space of the initiatic quest where the woman is the initiator and the traditional Minotaur is absent. This challenges the narrator/author to pursue the initiation to erotic life and to recreate the magic of the surreal. As the story is recounted, the surrealist account becomes labyrinthine. Its writer appears to be Daedalus building a complex narrative and risking to lose his reader along the way with numerous secondary accounts and various visual documents interrupting the main account. A new mode of writing, the labyrinthine writing, is on the move.Dans les années vingt, Louis Aragon, à l’exemple de ses contemporains pris dans l’aventure surréaliste, recherche une réalité occultée au cours de ses promenades dans les profondeurs de la ville.

The aim of this study was the assessment of the Regional Myocardial Work (RMW) by measuring the stress-strain relationships in the left myocardium, under basic and ischemic conditions. In 11 swines, 4 Sonometrics crystals were placed in the region perfused by the left anterior descending artery (LAD) circumscribing a tetrahedral myocardial volume (TMV). The 1st crystal was situated 45mm below the pulmonary artery, beside the LAD. Under control of the acquisition device, the 2nd was placed 10mm below the 1st following the LAD, the 3rd 10mm at the left side of the 1st and the 4th in equidistant point between the 1st and the 2nd, 5mm deep within the myocardium. A Millar, omnidirectional pressure catheter was placed within the TMV. The 6 distances and intramyocardial pressure measured were digitized and mathematically synthesized. The variation in TMV strain (µv) and stress (µp) was calculated throughout the cardiac cycle, resulting in 2 equations. The relationships between µp and µv result in a stress-strain loop, from which RMW was calculated. Simultaneously, Pulsed Doppler Tissue Imaging (DTI) assessed systolic (VS), early-diastolic (VE) and latediastolic (VA) myocardial velocities. Measurements were performed under basic (B), during ischemia by occlusion LDA for 40 seconds, after 1 and 15 minutes of reperfusion (Occlusion (O), Reperfusion1 (R1) and 2 (R2) periods). The average of RMW, under basic conditions, wa

Develop a Switch Learning Module on Floodlight Controller in Software Defined Networking (SDN)

In traditional existing networks, conducting real-world experiments on large scale production networks presents significant challenges. These networks have remained relatively unchanged for years, with slow advancements in innovation. Traditional networks rely heavily on vendor specific software and operate as closed systems. This “inside the box” approach has limited the flexibility and scalability of the network, leading to the proposal of a new network architecture. Software defined Networking (SDN) represents a transformative paradigm designed to enhance network management by enabling centralized, flexible, and programmable control of the network. The fundamental principle is the separation of the control plane from the data plane which includes the underlying network infrastructure. This thesis project aimed to develop a software defined networking application using the Floodlight controller as a main controller to implement flow rules on Open vSwitch (OVS). The focus is on achieving connectivity between hosts at the layer 2 (data link layer) of the network. Additionally, the thesis aims to gain knowledge with SDN technology by studying its architecture, components, and underlying functionality, and taking the initial step of setting up the environment and developing an SDN module that operates on top of the controller. The application development platform includes VMware running Ubuntu Linux, with Eclipse IDE used for building the SDN application in Java on top of the Floodlight controller, and Mininet acting as an emulator for the networking infrastructure. The primary aim of this project was achieved, establishing connectivity at the data link layer

¿Existe relación entre la microbiota intestinal y las enfermedades del aparato reproductor femenino?

[spa] En los últimos años se está estudiando la relación de la microbiota gastrointestinal con diferentes sistemas del cuerpo humano y/o distintas enfermedades. Si bien es un campo que hoy en día sigue en estudio, existe evidencia científica que demuestra que la microbiota intestinal puede variar en función de las comorbilidades y/o estilo de vida de la persona. La disbiosis intestinal es conocida como el desequilibrio en el número o tipo de microorganismos que habitan en el tracto digestivo del ser humano. El objetivo de esta revisión es descubrir si existe relación entre la microbiota intestinal y las enfermedades del aparato reproductor femenino, en concreto, en: endometriosis, síndrome de ovarios poliquísticos (SOP) y cánceres ginecológicos, así como investigar la influencia de la dieta en la microbiota intestinal. En cuanto a la metodología utilizada para realizar la presente revisión, se han utilizado como principales bases de datos: Pubmed, Crochane Library, Cinahl Complete (EBSCOHOST) y Biblioteca Virtual de la Salud. También se han obtenido artículos en búsqueda de bola de nieve. En Pubmed se realizaron dos niveles de búsqueda. Como conclusión, a pesar de que se necesite más investigación para determinar el mecanismo exacto de la relación entre la microbiota intestinal y las enfermedades del aparato reproductor femenino, podemos concluir que existen diferencias significativas en la microbiota de mujeres que padecen, endometriosis, SOP en comparación con mujeres sanas. También, se ha visto que la disbiosis puede ser un factor desencadenante de cánceres ginecológicos. Se sugiere que una dieta alta en fibra y el consumo de alimentos con proteína de origen vegetal puede favorecer el estado de la microbiota intestinal. Finalmente a día de hoy no queda claro si la disbiosis es la causa o la consecuencia de las enfermedades ginecológicas estudiadas.[cat] Durant els darrers anys se està estudiant la relació entre la microbiota intestinal amb diferents aparells del cos humà i/o amb diferents malalties.

La disbiosis intestinal es coneguda com el desequilibri en el nombre o tipus de microorganismes que habiten dins el tracte digestiu del ésser humà. L’objectiu d’aquesta revisió es descobrir si existeix relació entre la microbiota intestinal i les malalties de l’aparell reproductiu femení, en concret en: endometriosi, síndrome d’ovaris poliquístics i càncers ginecològics, així com investigar la influència de la dieta en la microbiota intestinal. En quant a la metodologia utilitzada per realitzar la present revisió, s’ha utilitzat com a principals bases de dades: Pumbed, Crochane Library, Cinahl Complete (EBSCOHOST) y Biblioteca Virtual de la Salut. També s’han obtingut articles a través de la cerca en bolla de neu. Es varen realitzar dos nivells de cerca. Com a conclusió, a pesar de que es necessiti més investigació per determinar el mecanisme exacte de la relació entre la microbiota intestinal i les malalties de l’aparell reproductiu femení, podem concloure que existeixen diferències significatives en la microbiota intestinal de dones que pateixen endometriosis i SOP en comparació amb dones sanes. A més, s’ha vist que la disbiosis pot ser un factor desencadenant de càncers ginecològics. Es suggereix que una dieta alta en fibra i el consum d’aliments amb proteïna d’origen vegetal pot afavorir l’estat de la microbiota intestinal. Finalment a dia d’avui encara no queda clar si la disbiosis és la causa o la conseqüència de les malalties ginecològiques estudiades.[eng] In recent years, the relationship between the gastrointestinal microbiota and different systems of the human body and/or different diseases is being studied. Although it is a field that is still being study today, there is scientific evidence that shows that the intestinal microbiota can vary depending on the person's comorbidities and/or lifestyle. Intestinal dysbiosis is known as an imbalance in the number or type of microorganisms that inhabit the human digestive tract. The objective of this review is to discover if there is a relationship between the intestinal microbiota and diseases of the female reproductive system, specifically: endometriosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and gynecological cancers, as well as to investigate the influence of diet on the intestinal microbiota. Regarding the methodology used to perform the present review, the main databases used were: Pubmed, Crochane Library, Cinahl Complete (EBSCOHOST) and Virtual Health Library. Articles were also obtained by snowball search. Two levels of search were performed in Pubmed. In conclusion, although more research is needed to determine the exact mechanism of the relationship between gut intestinal microbiota and female reproductive tract diseases, we can conclude that there are significant differences in the microbiota of women with endometriosis and PCOS compared to healthy women. Also, it has been seen that dysbiosis may be a triggering factor for gynecological cancers. It is suggested that a highfiber diet and the consumption of plant-based protein foods may favor the state of the intestinal microbiota. Finally, it is still unclear whether dysbiosis is the cause or the consequence of the gynecological diseases studied

Evaluating the Risk of Re-Identification in Data Release Strategies: An Attacker-Centric Approach

In this methodological paper, we introduce a novel approach to evaluate the risk of re-identification of individuals associated with data release strategies, including data redaction, data anonymization and data synthesis. More precisely, our approach simulates an attacker performing singling-out attacks as outlined in data protection regulations, and scores attacks based on the linkability of records and the information gain obtained by the attacker. Additionally, we further enhance our approach by simulating attacks as a cooperative game. In this game, the value of the attackers\u27 information resources is determined using Shapley value borrowed from game theory. We also demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach using the Adult Income Census (AIC) dataset before discussing the economical implications associated with a privacy breach. Our work contributes to research and practice on the pressing need to better understand and evaluate the inherent trade-offs that exist between data privacy and utility in organizations

Reproducibility and relative validity of a semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire in European preschoolers: The ToyBox study

Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the reproducibility and relative validity of a semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) in assessing food group estimates. Methods: Food group estimates were assessed via a 37-item FFQ and a 3-d food record (FR). Pearson's correlation coefficients for log-transformed values were calculated to assess the reproducibility and Spearman's rank correlation coefficients for log-transformed values were calculated to assess the validity. Kindergartens from six European countries participated in the preparatory substudies of the ToyBox intervention study; data from preschool children 4 to 6 y of age (n = 196, reproducibility study; n = 324, validation study) were obtained. Results: In the reproducibility study, positive Pearson's correlation coefficients for single and aggregated food groups ranged from 0.14 for pasta and rice to 0.90 for cooked vegetables. In the validation study, the FR gave higher estimates of 40 of the 50 food items (single and aggregated) examined compared with those obtained from the FFQ. Positive crude Spearman rank correlation coefficients ranged from 0.01 for total beverages (added sugar) and rice to 0.62 for tea. Corrections for the deattenuation effect did not improve observed correlations. Quartiles and tertiles were calculated for a small number of food groups (N = 14) owing to zero consumption in the rest of the groups. Conclusions: Moderately good reproducibility and low-moderate relative validity of the FFQ used in preschool children was observed. Relative validity, however, varied by food and beverage group; for some of the “key” foods/drinks targeted in the ToyBox intervention (e.g., biscuits), the validity was good. The findings should be considered in future epidemiologic and intervention studies in preschool children
