    L’image de la Bibliothèque d’Alexandrie, expression surdimensionnée de l’ambition des Ptolémées de posséder « tout le savoir du monde » et vitrine de cet orgueil, a longtemps occulté les autres créations royales, comme celles de Pergame ou de Pella. Le livre que nous présentons se propose de sortir de la poussière les ruines des divers édifices consacrés à la conservation des collections livresques et des archives, moins imposants mais tout aussi nécessaires à la transmission d’un mode de vie..

    Dentists, members of the French Resistance movement during the World War II

    Get PDF
    The Resistance was a reaffirmation of France's independence and individuality, as well as a struggle to regain freedom and, above all, national integrity. In fact, many historians appreciate that the French Resistance could have achieved more if it had been more effectively integrated into Allied plans and strategies. Thus, in this material we tried to present some short biographies of dentists who worked in the French Resistance against the German occupation troops, some of them even paying with their lives for the courage they showed

    Sex difference and intra-operative tidal volume: Insights from the LAS VEGAS study

    BACKGROUND: One key element of lung-protective ventilation is the use of a low tidal volume (VT). A sex difference in use of low tidal volume ventilation (LTVV) has been described in critically ill ICU patients.OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine whether a sex difference in use of LTVV also exists in operating room patients, and if present what factors drive this difference.DESIGN, PATIENTS AND SETTING: This is a posthoc analysis of LAS VEGAS, a 1-week worldwide observational study in adults requiring intra-operative ventilation during general anaesthesia for surgery in 146 hospitals in 29 countries.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Women and men were compared with respect to use of LTVV, defined as VT of 8 ml kg-1 or less predicted bodyweight (PBW). A VT was deemed 'default' if the set VT was a round number. A mediation analysis assessed which factors may explain the sex difference in use of LTVV during intra-operative ventilation.RESULTS: This analysis includes 9864 patients, of whom 5425 (55%) were women. A default VT was often set, both in women and men; mode VT was 500 ml. Median [IQR] VT was higher in women than in men (8.6 [7.7 to 9.6] vs. 7.6 [6.8 to 8.4] ml kg-1 PBW, P < 0.001). Compared with men, women were twice as likely not to receive LTVV [68.8 vs. 36.0%; relative risk ratio 2.1 (95% CI 1.9 to 2.1), P < 0.001]. In the mediation analysis, patients' height and actual body weight (ABW) explained 81 and 18% of the sex difference in use of LTVV, respectively; it was not explained by the use of a default VT.CONCLUSION: In this worldwide cohort of patients receiving intra-operative ventilation during general anaesthesia for surgery, women received a higher VT than men during intra-operative ventilation. The risk for a female not to receive LTVV during surgery was double that of males. Height and ABW were the two mediators of the sex difference in use of LTVV.TRIAL REGISTRATION: The study was registered at Clinicaltrials.gov, NCT01601223

    Zénon de Kition, fils de marchand phénicien et fondateur du stoïcisme

    No full text
    Rien ne prédestinait Zénon, le fondateur de la Stoa, à devenir l’un des scholarques athéniens les plus réputés. Il était en effet le fils d’un marchand de pourpre phénicien, Mnaséas, qui jouissait certes d’une grande aisance financière ayant sans doute d’étroites relations avec la communauté phénicienne établie dans le Pirée mais qui n’était pas introduit dans les cercles intellectuels athéniens. Diogène Laërce rapporte que le premier maître du jeune Zénon, Cratès de Thèbes, le surnommait pho..

    Nysa et ses hommes célèbres : le destin culturel d’une cité d’Asie Mineure

    No full text
    «Nysa and her ‘ men of high reputation’ : the cultural destiny of a city of Asia Minor». This study aims to collect and reinterpret the literary, epigraphic, archaeological and numismatic data about the Carian city of Nysa, famous in antiquity for its men of culture, whose one was the first teacher of Strabo, and for its library. Through the reexamination of this rich documentation, with the mobilization of less exploited sources, especially epigraphic, the article follows the destiny of the city from its earliest testimonies to the late imperial period. The aim is to show how this city, rather modest, builds and affirms its cultural dynamism in a world increasingly dominated by elites networks and by an authentic cult of the paideia.Cette étude se propose de réunir et de réinterpréter les données d’ordre littéraire, épigraphique, archéologique et numismatique concernant la cité carienne de Nysa, connue dans l’Antiquité pour ses hommes de culture, dont l’un fut le premier maître de Strabon, et pour sa bibliothèque. À travers l’examen de cette riche documentation, par la mobilisation des sources moins exploitées, notamment épigraphiques, l’article suit le destin de la cité depuis ses premières mentions jusqu’à l’époque impériale tardive. Le but est de montrer comment cette cité, somme toute modeste, construit et affirme son dynamisme culturel dans un monde de plus en plus dominé par les réseaux de notables et par un véritable culte de la paideia.Dana Madalina.
