Structuration sémantique des documents XML : Expérimentations et évaluation

National audienceLa norme XML permet la représentation d'un document selon un découpage logique qui ne reflète généralement pas la sémantique de son contenu. Il serait donc intéressant de compléter la structure logique des documents XML par une structure sémantique. L'objet de cet article est alors d'évaluer l'approche d'extraction de structures sémantiques pour les documents XML que nous effectuons sur un échantillon de documents issus de la collection ImageClef 2010 tout en utilisant le thésaurus MeSH (Medical Subject Headings)

A Semantic Approach for XML Document Warehousing and OLAP Analysis

International audienceThe nature of data sources together with the multiple alternative descriptions for the documents available in these sources are continuously evolving. Furthermore, these changes are speeded up by the spreading out of the Web and the intensive use of XML documents. However, the main drawback of the logical structure of XML documents is its poorness of the semantics incarnated in documents. Consequently, the need of an approach for determining a semantic structure for an XML document as well as the development of dedicated software tools to handle this structure reveals as an urgent requirement. This paper attempts to alleviate these drawbacks. Thus, it proposes a new approach for determining a semantic structure for an XML document. This structure helps to get much more benefits from the content of documents especially for the decision-making process that should be enhanced with semantic-OLAP for documents

Q fever presenting as myocarditis

We report the case of a 19-year-old healthy adolescent, living in an urban area, admitted because of acute chest pain and extensive anterior ST elevation. Coronary arteries were normal on coronary angiography; troponins were very high, echocardiography revealed a preserved global systolic function but an alteration of the longitudinal strain in the inferolateral wall. Cardiac MRI confirmed the diagnosis of acute myocarditis. As part of the etiological workup, Coxiella burnetii serology showed an acute infection. The diagnosis of Coxiella burnetii myocarditis was retained and the patient was treated with doxycycline and corticosteroid therapy. The myocardial localization of this germ is unusual but can be serious, hence the interest of a Coxiella serology in endemic countries face to any acute myocarditis

Fregoli syndrome in schizophrenia: about a case report

A Fregoli syndrome, just like Capgras Syndrome, Double Subjective Syndrome, and Inter metamorphosis Syndrome, belongs to the group of delusion misidentification syndromes. It is a rare neuropsychiatric pathology that could affect the brain with repercussions on behavior. It is the belief that a familiar person is disguised as a strange person by taking a different physical appearance but remains the same person psychologically. This entity has heterogonous etiologies, occurring mainly in the setting of organic diseases, affective disorders, or schizophrenia. In this article, we proposed to expose a case of a schizophrenic patient who developed Fregoli syndrome

The role of cognitive distraction in sexual dysfunction in female medical resident doctors

Introduction: Studies have shown a high prevalence of sexual dysfunction in Medical residents. Psychological, interpersonal, and sociocultural factors play an important role in sexual vulnerability. In addition, distraction or interference in the cognitive process of the erotic stimulus plays an important role in the development of sexual dysfunction. The aim of our study was to determine the prevalence of sexual dysfunctions among a sample of married female medical resident doctors and to explore its relation with cognitive distraction during sex.Subjects and methods: This was a cross-sectional study, which was carried out in October 2017 with 70 married female medical resident doctors. We used the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) for sexual functioning assessment and the cognitive distraction during sex scale. Results: The mean age of women was 30.52 years. They had been married for 6.04 years on the mean. The majority (74%) had children. According to the FSFI, 40% of resident doctors had sexual dysfunction. The mean cognitive distraction during sex score was 4.37.In our study, women with female sexual dysfunction reported significantly lower sexual desire score = 3.2 vs. 4.1 and p = 0.03) and arousal (score = 3.è vs. 4.7 and p = 10-3), decreased lubrication (score = 3.8 vs. 5.1; p = 10-3), less sexual satisfaction (score = 3.9 vs. 5.8; p = 10-3)and higher orgasm difficulties (score = 3.4 vs. 5.1; p = 10-3). Yet, our results highlighted that women with female sexual dysfunction presented significantly more cognitive distraction during sex (score = 3.9 vs. 4.6; p = 0.03). Conclusion: According to our study, it appears that the prevalence of FSD in medical resident doctors is considerable. Besides, intrusive thoughts and cognitive distraction during sexual intercourse are importantly associated with sexual functioning. Therefore, several measures should be implemented in this population to prevent or act on these factors
