Le syndrome des loges (compartment syndrome) est définit comme une augmentation de la pression intramusculaire (PIM) compromettant la perfusion du contenu de la loge musculaire en question. Ce chapitre portera essentiellement sur le syndrome des loges aigu de la jambe qui est le plus fréquent. Le syndrome des loges du membre supérieur est couvert dans un autre chapitre

SYNOPSIS: In this lesson, students explore increased precipitation and sea level rise in New Jersey and advocate for a climate adaptation strategy.

SCIENTIST NOTES: In this lesson, students will learn the basics of sea level rise and extreme rainfall and how that specifically is impacting New Jersey. They will also be introduced to a variety of ideas and technology to combat the increased flooding due to these things. Finally, they will be inspired to take action and propose an idea that will benefit their local community. All the videos have been reviewed for accuracy. The two mapping tools also explain where they are getting their data from. This resource is recommended for teaching.

POSITIVES:
-This lesson can be used in English, social studies, or science classes.
-Students are given voice and choice in this lesson.
-Students become agents of change in their own communities.

ADDITIONAL PREREQUISITES:
-Students should be familiar with the basics of climate change and sea level rise.
-Students will be advocating for climate adaptation strategies. Climate adaptation strategies are ways humans are adapting to a changing climate. This is different from climate mitigation, which are ways humans are slowing down climate change. Climate mitigation strategies include reducing fossil fuel use and ending deforestation.
-The first two videos in the Investigate section will autoplay only the segment of the video that pertains to this lesson.
-How Climate Change Has Intensified Hurricane Season will play from 02:59-03:36.
-Thermal Expansion & Sea Level Rise will play from 01:27-02:54.
-The Investigate section features six different resources. These resources (four videos, one map, and one podcast) should not take that much time individually.

DIFFERENTIATION:
-Students' communication can be as simple or as thorough as you desire. They will need more time to research and craft their communication if you want their writing to be more fact-based and robust.
-Some students may wish to communicate their advocacy via social media. Make sure to follow all school rules and monitor students' progress if you allow this in the classroom.
-Allow students to pursue other methods of communication, adaptation strategies, and recipients not listed in the chart in the Inspire section.
-In certain situations, it may be best to allow students to teach their family and friends about increased precipitation and sea level rise. This could be used as a replacement activity instead of student communication to government and business leaders.

Paradoxically, while natural disasters clearly destroy wealth, they also seem to create wealth and employment when the damages are repaired. But 19th century French economist Frédéric Bastiat argued that this idea is a fallacy and fails to take opportunity costs into account. In this video, philosophy professor Dan Russell of the University of Arizona defines opportunity costs and explains the importance of Bastiat’s realization on contemporary economics.

SYNOPSIS: In this lesson, students will analyze Amanda Gorman's poem "Earthrise" and write their own poetry.

SCIENTIST NOTES: The lesson introduces students to basic literary techniques and how to use poetry skills to communicate climate change and solutions to a diverse audience. There is no science to verify, but the resources, accompanying materials, and links in the lesson are credible and ideal for teaching. This lesson has passed our review.

POSITIVES:
-Amanda Gorman is a brilliant poet.
-Students will engage in lively group discussions. This poem is abundant in deep meaning and rhyme.

ADDITIONAL PREREQUISITES:
-Before class, share the following with your students:
-Student Slideshow. All students need editing rights, as they will be writing in the same slideshow.
-Full Text of the Poem "Earthrise." Students will need viewing rights.
-Student Document. Each student needs their own copy, as they will be writing their own poem on this document.
-Amanda Gorman is most famous for performing "The Hill We Climb" at Joe Biden’s presidential inauguration on January 20, 2021.
-Amanda Gorman delivered a TED talk called "Using Your Voice is a Political Choice."

DIFFERENTIATION:
-You can select students of all abilities to read part of the poem after you have watched the video.
-The six stanzas selected for group discussion are of various lengths. They range from 6 lines to 19 lines. You can assign weaker students to the shorter stanzas.
-You can create groups of mixed abilities.
-Students who like to take notes can be scribes in their groups.
-Students may be unfamiliar with some of the vocabulary in “Earthrise.”
-Students should use the two linked dictionaries on the resources slide to find definitions of unfamiliar words.

A 12-year-old male presented with a 14-month history of progressive weakness of his right arm and leg as well as a deviated mouth. Physical examination revealed a mild right-sided central facial palsy and mild right hemiplegia. MRI axial T1 images showed a mixed and ill-defined signal in left thalamus and cerebral peduncle with mild speckled enhancement (Figure 1a). The anterior horn of the left lateral ventricle and left lateral fissure were enlarged as compared with contralateral side (Figures 1a, 1b). The left cerebral peduncle was significantly smaller than that on the right (Figures 1c, 1d). A stereotactic needle biopsy was performed.

A 25-year-old, previously healthy woman presented with a 3-year history of lumbago with radiation to the right lower extremity and was admitted to our hospital. Pain was of mechanical type and responded well to rest. Complete neurological examination was normal. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed two well-circumscribed isolated intradural masses at levels L2-L3 and S1-S2. One at level L2-L3 measured 3.2 cm in its longest axis. The other extending from S1-S2 measured 2.2 cm in its long axis. Both masses were heterogeneous in T2 and strongly enhanced after gadolinium injection (Figures 1a, 1b,1c). No other lesions were identified elsewhere on craniospinal axis by MRI. Both masses were completely resected. The patient was discharged ten days later. The MRI performed 10 months after surgery showed no recurrence of the tumors.

A 37 year old female from Brazil presented with paresthesia and cramping in the left calf. She also reported transient loss of strength in the left arm. Neurological examination revealed paresthesia on the entire left side of her body. No clinical abnormality was noted on physical examination, including breast and lymph node examination. During hospitalization, she presented sensorimotor seizure of the left arm and leg. Cerebral MRI showed a rolandic right lesion of postcentral gyrus with FLAIR hypersignal (Figure 1), heterogeneous enhancement and edema around the lesion (Figures 1 and 2). Laboratory tests, including blood cell count and CSF puncture, did not find any abnormality. Cerebral biopsy for diagnosis was performed.

This lesson is part of Software Carpentry workshops and teach an introduction to plotting and programming using python. This lesson is an introduction to programming in Python for people with little or no previous programming experience. It uses plotting as its motivating example, and is designed to be used in both Data Carpentry and Software Carpentry workshops. This lesson references JupyterLab, but can be taught using a regular Python interpreter as well. Please note that this lesson uses Python 3 rather than Python 2.

This collection of essays is derived from the special issue of Africa Today 60 (Winter 2013) which focused on Postliberation Eritrea and the challenges of the country's strategy of nation-state formation in an era marked by global flows.

This is a short introduction to the fundamentals of real analysis. Although the prerequisites are few, I have written the text assuming the reader has the level of mathematical maturity of one who has completed the standard sequence of calculus courses, has had some exposure to the ideas of mathematical proof (including induction), and has an acquaintance with such basic ideas as equivalence relations and the elementary algebraic properties of the integers.
