Nadine Cretin, Dictionnaire des Prénoms de France
On peut se douter que le Dictionnaire des Prénoms de France de Nadine Cretin n’est pas un simple listing alphabétique des prénoms, comme on en voit tant pour le marché des maternités, mais au contraire, un véritable panorama critique du champ de la prénomination en France, autant qu’une étude historique, étymologique et ethnographique de ceux-ci depuis leurs origines, grecque, latine, celte, franque. Cet ouvrage les suit depuis leur invention et leur usage établi à travers les Vitae des saint..
Adipose Tissue Distribution and Survival Among Women with Nonmetastatic Breast Cancer.
ObjectivePrevious studies of breast cancer survival have not considered specific depots of adipose tissue such as subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT).MethodsThis study assessed these relationships among 3,235 women with stage II and III breast cancer diagnosed between 2005 and 2013 at Kaiser Permanente Northern California and between 2000 and 2012 at Dana Farber Cancer Institute. SAT and VAT areas (in centimeters squared) were calculated from routine computed tomography scans within 6 (median: 1.2) months of diagnosis, covariates were collected from electronic health records, and vital status was assessed by death records. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs were estimated using Cox regression.ResultsSAT and VAT ranged from 19.0 to 891 cm2 and from 0.484 to 454 cm2 , respectively. SAT was related to increased risk of death (127-cm2 increase; HR [95% CI]: 1.13 [1.02-1.26]), but no relationship was found with VAT (78.18-cm2 increase; HR [95% CI]: 1.02 [0.91-1.14]). An association with VAT was noted among women with stage II cancer (stage II: HR: 1.17 [95% CI: 0.99-1.39]; stage III: HR: 0.90 [95% CI: 0.76-1.07]; P interaction < 0.01). Joint increases in SAT and VAT were associated with mortality above either alone (simultaneous 1-SD increase: HR 1.19 [95% CI: 1.05-1.34]).ConclusionsSAT may be an underappreciated risk factor for breast cancer-related death
Requirements engineering in software product line engineering
The final publication is available at Springer via http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00766-013-0189-0Many attempts have been made to increase the productivity and quality of software products based on software reuse. Software product line practice is one such approach, one that focuses on developing a family of products which have a majority of features in common. Hence, there are numerous requirements that are common across the family, but others are unique to individual products. Traditional requirements engineering methods were conceived to deal with single product requirements and are usually not flexible enough to address the needs arising from reusing requirements for a family of products. There is also the additional burden of correctly identifying and engineering both product-line-wide requirements and product-specific requirements as well as evolving them. Therefore, in this special issue, we want to highlight the importance and the role of requirements engineering for product line development as well as to provide insights into the state of the art in the field.Insfrán Pelozo, CE.; Chastek, G.; Donohoe, P.; Sampaio Do Prado Leite, JC.

Social Studies Students’ Motivation in Online Learning during COVID-19 Pandemic
This study described the experiences of social studies students as well as how they managed to stay inclined to learn given the struggles, they faced during the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, it looked at how social studies students have faced challenges but are still actively pursuing their own dreams during the pandemic. This research employed a qualitative-narrative approach, involving five (5) social studies students. As data collection techniques, students were asked to write narratively using Gibbs reflective cycle. The findings revealed that students' motivation to continue learning during the COVID-19 pandemic was divided into three main themes, each with its own set of categories and subcategories. The three themes and categories described were: (a) personal, with categories of challenges, self-determination, satisfaction and religious commitment; (b) social, with categories of relationships, inspiration, and well-being; and (c) environmental, with categories of breaking in/conditioning and amenities. The themes and categories showed that these social studies students got their inspiration to learn during the pandemic. According to the findings, these students were intrinsically and extrinsically motivated and dedicated to their studies. The majority of these students were spurred by their individual goals, not by a controlled motive, an incentive, a consequence, or a regulation. This study proposes that students be prepared to be more resilient and to build the ability to be hopeful and motivated to succeed and transcend any of life's hardships by defining how they achieved to motivate themselves
Sentiment analysis with Python in literary texts: a study with the poems of João Cabral de Melo Neto
The purpose of this paper is to analyze if implementing the hermeneutically created negation scope can improve the performance of Sentiment Analysis tools when applied to João Cabral de Melo Neto\u27s poems. To achieve this goal, the paper proposes a hybrid approach that combines lexical analysis based on two dictionaries with a scope of negation created from the author\u27s own poems. Furthermore, some algorithms were used to confirm the negation in the context of Cabralina\u27s poetry. The experiment showed a significant improvement in performance scores when applying one of the dictionaries associated with the scope of negation. This underscores the significance of computational linguists\u27 endeavors to create dictionaries for literary texts and reinforces the need for collaboration between areas of knowledge.

Para lograr este objetivo, el artículo propone un enfoque híbrido que combina el análisis léxico basado en dos diccionarios con un alcance de negación creado a partir de los propios poemas del autor. Además, se utilizaron algunos algoritmos para confirmar la negación en el contexto de la poesía de Cabralina. El experimento mostró una mejora significativa en las puntuaciones de desempeño al aplicar uno de los diccionarios asociados con el alcance de la negación. Esto subraya la importancia de los esfuerzos de los lingüistas computacionales por crear diccionarios para textos literarios y refuerza la necesidad de colaboración entre áreas del conocimiento.

Além disso, houve a aplicação de alguns algoritmos para validar a negação no contexto da poesia Cabralina. Os resultados mostram que o experimento apresentou uma melhoria significativa nos escores de desempenho na aplicação de um dos dicionários associados ao escopo de negação. Isto, destaca a importância de haver um esforço dos linguistas computacionais em desenvolver dicionários específicos para textos literários, assim como reforça a necessidade de colaboração entre áreas de conhecimento

Top 50 most-cited articles in caffeine and exercise: contributions for professionals and researchers
Objectives: To objectively identify the 50 most-cited articles on caffeine intake and physical exercise, as well as the characteristics that make these articles important for professionals and researchers in the field. Materials and Methods: Data were obtained from a Web of Science search with the keyword’s "caffeine" and "exercise". No restrictions were applied based on abstract availability, study type, language and human versus non-human research subjects or any type of time limitation. Results: All articles were published in English and the number of citations ranged from 85 to 421 (median 124). Regarding the level of evidence, 32 of the articles were classified as level II, ten articles were level I, three articles were level III, and five articles were level V evidence. Among the 50 most-cited articles, 35 articles were original research and 15 were review articles. Most of the original studies (28) investigated caffeine intake on aerobic exercise, another four articles on strength training, and three articles on power training. Considering review studies, 14 investigated caffeine intakes on aerobic exercise and one on strength training. The 50 most cited articles were published in 17 journals, with 60% of the articles published by five journals, with the Journal of Applied Physiology having the highest number of publications. Conclusions: We present the 50 most cited articles on caffeine and exercise by number of citations. The studies presented in this article provide teachers, researchers, and students with a set of classic references about caffeine and exercise
