Emmanuel KASARHEROU Je suis l’adjoint au directeur du patrimoine et des collections. Je suis en poste à Branly depuis cinq ans. J’étais auparavant directeur du Centre culturel Tjibaou en Nouvelle-Calédonie, qui est une autre architecture et un autre centre culturel intéressant aux antipodes de ce musée. Dans une vie antérieure, j’étais directe..

Discussion générale

De la salle Merci beaucoup pour ces propositions très encourageantes et donnant beaucoup d’idées dans le contexte français qui est aussi un contexte très particulier par rapport à cette question de la circulation des objets, parce qu’il y a cette particularité de l’inaliénabilité des biens culturels qui se pose sur beaucoup de niveaux et qui se pose encore différemment pour le cas très particulier des restes humains. Je voudrais savoir quelles perspectives vous voyez dans un futur pour que ce..

An interdisciplinary guideline development process: the Clinic on Low-back pain in Interdisciplinary Practice (CLIP) low-back pain guidelines

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Evaluation of low-back pain guidelines using Appraisal of Guidelines Research and Evaluation (AGREE) criteria has shown weaknesses, particularly in stakeholder involvement and applicability of recommendations. The objectives of this project were to: 1) develop a primary care interdisciplinary clinical practice guideline aimed at preventing prolonged disability from low-back pain, using a community of practice approach, and 2) assess the participants' impressions with the process, and evaluate the relationship between participant characteristics and their participation.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>Ten stakeholder representatives recruited 136 clinicians to participate in this community of practice. Clinicians were drawn from the following professions: physiotherapists (46%), occupational therapists (37%), and family physicians (17%). Using previously published guidelines, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses, a first draft of the guidelines was presented to the community of practice. Four communication tools were provided for discussion and exchanges with experts: a web-based discussion forum, an anonymous comment form, meetings, and a symposium. Participants were prompted for comments on interpretation, clarity, and applicability of the recommendations. Clinical management recommendations were revised following these exchanges. At the end of the project, a questionnaire was sent to the participants to assess satisfaction towards the guidelines and the development process.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Twelve clinical management recommendations on management of low-back pain and persistent disability were initially developed. These were discussed through 188 comments posted on the discussion forum and 103 commentary forms submitted. All recommendations were modified following input of the participants. A clinical algorithm summarizing the guidelines was also developed. A response rate of 75% was obtained for the satisfaction questionnaire. The majority of respondents appreciated the development process and agreed with the guideline content. Most participants thought recommendations improved between versions, and that participant comments contributed to this improvement. All stakeholders officially endorsed the guidelines.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>The community of practice approach was a successful method to develop guidelines on low-back pain, with participants providing information to improve guideline recommendations. The information technology infrastructure that was developed remains for continuous interdisciplinary exchanges and updating of the guidelines.</p

An interdisciplinary clinical practice model for the management of low-back pain in primary care: the CLIP project

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Low-back pain is responsible for significant disability and costs in industrialized countries. Only a minority of subjects suffering from low-back pain will develop persistent disability. However, this minority is responsible for the majority of costs and has the poorest health outcomes. The objective of the Clinic on Low-back pain in Interdisciplinary Practice (CLIP) project was to develop a primary care interdisciplinary practice model for the clinical management of low-back pain and the prevention of persistent disability.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>Using previously published guidelines, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, a clinical management model for low-back pain was developed by the project team. A structured process facilitating discussions on this model among researchers, stakeholders and clinicians was created. The model was revised following these exchanges, without deviating from the evidence.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>A model consisting of nine elements on clinical management of low-back pain and prevention of persistent disability was developed. The model's two core elements for the prevention of persistent disability are the following: 1) the evaluation of the prognosis at the fourth week of disability, and of key modifiable barriers to return to usual activities if the prognosis is unfavourable; 2) the evaluation of the patient's perceived disability every four weeks, with the evaluation and management of barriers to return to usual activities if perceived disability has not sufficiently improved.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>A primary care interdisciplinary model aimed at improving quality and continuity of care for patients with low-back pain was developed. The effectiveness, efficiency and applicability of the CLIP model in preventing persistent disability in patients suffering from low-back pain should be assessed.</p

Relaxation of Crystals with the Quasi-Newton Method

A quasi-Newton Method is used to simultaneously relax the internal coordinates and lattice parameters of crystals under pressure. The symmetry of the crystal structure is preserved during the relaxation. From the inverse of the Hessian matrix, elastic properties and some optical phonon frequencies at the Brillouin zone center can be estimated. The efficiency of the method is demonstrated for silicon test systems. 1 Introduction Ab-initio computations of the total energy within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) and the local density approximation (LDA) [1] have been successful in predicting the structural properties of materials [3]. At zero temperature and pressure, the structural parameters are determined by moving the constituting atoms to positions where the energy E is minimal. This can be done much more efficiently if the forces on the atoms can be computed [2]. If a pressure p is applied to the material, it is the enthalpy H = E + pV which has to be minimized wi..
