La médecine personnalisée: enjeux éthiques Réflexion autour de l'information aux participants à la recherche en génétique

Suite à la découverte du génome, les patients peuvent bénéficier aujourd'hui, d'une approche préventive, prédictive, voire personnalisée de leur prise en charge. Si la médecine personnalisée devient courante, la « généralisation» de l'information génétique nous amènera probablement à établir de nouveaux standards sociaux et éthiques, car si celle-ci permet une plus grande efficacité dans les soins en aidant à la prise de décision, elle apporte une connaissance inédite de l'homme en terme de risque et de susceptibilité face à la maladie, mais aussi des informations propres à l'individu pouvant mener à la discrimination. Sommes- nous prêts à gérer cette information ? Dans ce travail, nous allons nous intéresser au traitement de l'information lors des tests génétiques en recherche. L'hypothèse de travail étant que l'information génétique est une nouvelle donnée biologique individuelle dont il faut tenir compte dans la prise en charge des participants à la recherche. Pour entamer la réflexion, une revue de la littérature a permis de mettre en évidence les spécificités de la recherche en génétique. Dans un deuxième temps, nous avons effectué une analyse comparative des feuilles d'information et des formulaires de consentement destinés aux participants à dix-sept protocoles de recherches impliquant des tests génétiques au CHUV à Lausanne en Suisse. Cette analyse a permis de faire un état des lieux des pratiques actuelles dans la région et elle est le point de départ d'une mise en perspective des enjeux éthiques liés la question. Les résultats montrent des inégalités entre les différentes feuilles d'information et formulaires de consentement de notre échantillon lausannois en ce qui concerne la restitution des résultats, la confidentialité des données ou encore la possibilité de participer à de futures recherches. Nous en concluons qu'il serait intéressant de travailler à une standardisation de ces documents et une éducation plus large à ce sujet

Pelaksanaan Supervisi Akademik Pengawas Sekolah sebagai Upaya Peningkatan Profesionalisme Guru

Academic supervision is an activity planned to help teachers in the learning process in order to improve students' learning outcomes. This study aimed at investigating the supervision of school's supervisor in improving the professionalism of teachers and improve the quality of education at SMP Negeri 44 Palembang. The type of this research is qualitative and the data were obtained by observation, documentation and interview. The results of this study (1) supervision conducted by applying the official approach, partners, and kinship, and the techniques developed by supervisors in implementing academic supervision vary considerably; (2) supervisory obstacles in carrying out academic supervision is the number of teachers were too many, however it only had limited time; (3) the implementation of general academic supervision is good enough and able to carry out its duties and functions properly; (4) aspects that have been targeted by the supervision of school's supervisors are still limited, not all aspects of academic supervision; (5) the frequency of visits by school's supervisors in conducting academic supervision is considered lack because it is not evenly distributed; teachers receive class visits by supervisors; and (6) efforts made by supervisors in carrying out academic supervision at SMP Negeri 44 Palembang have not been optimal in providing guidance to teachers

Progress towards Bell-type polarization experiment with thermal neutrons

Experimental tests of Bell-type inequalities distinguishing between quantum mechanics and local realistic theories remain of considerable interest if performed on massive particles, for which no conclusive result has yet been obtained. Only two-particle experiments may specifically test the concept of spatial nonlocality in quantum theory, whereas single-particle experiments may generally test the concept of quantum noncontextuality. Here we have performed the first Bell-type experiment with a beam of thermal-neutron pairs in the singlet state of spin, as originally suggested by J. S. Bell. These measurements confirm the quantum-theoretical predictions, in agreement with the results of the well-known polarization experiments carried out on optical photons years ago

Mise au point d’une méthodologie d’étalonnage d’une presse destinée à la fabrication des blocs de terre comprimée

Les paramètres utilisés pour la description des sols entrant dans la fabrication des blocs de terre comprimée sont proposés. La notion de fonction caractéristique d’une presse pour blocs de terre comprimée afin de décrire leur état de fonctionnement est introduite et ses propriétés données. Les effets de certains paramètres sur l’aptitude au compactage des sols sont examinés et les critères utilisables pour la sélection des matières premières pour blocs de terre comprimée sont présentés. Mais les presses à blocs de fabrication camerounaise, ne sont pas utilisées dans des très bonnes conditions ; du fait de l’absence de fiche technique. Pour lever cette lacune, une méthodologie d’étalonnage est proposée et appliquée à une presse de fabrication locale de type Cinva–Ram. Les résultats obtenus indiquent que : pour le sol de référence utilisé, la teneur en eau et la masse totale humide optimales sont de 18,64% et 1,900kg.Mots-clés : blocs de terre, étalonnage, fonction caractéristique, résistance.Development of a methodology for the calibration of compressed earth’s blocks pressIn this article, the parameters used to describe the soils used in the manufacturing of compressed earth blocks are presented. The notion of characteristic function of the compressed earth blocks machines is used to describe their state of functioning and its properties are given. The effects of some parameters, on the capacity of soils to be compacted are examined and the criteria used to select them as raw material for compressed earth blocks are presented. But in Cameroon, earth block machines are not well used because of the lack of technical data on them. In order to reduce this shortcoming, a calibration methodology is proposed and applied to a local Cinva-Ram blocks press. The results obtained indicate that: for the reference soil used, the optimal moisture content and the optimal wet mass are 18.64% and 1.900kg.Keywords : earth block, calibration, characteristic function, resistance

Overexpression of hIGF-1 exclusively in skeletal muscle increases the number of dihydropyridine receptors in adult transgenic mice

AbstractThe number of dihydropyridine receptors (DHPR) and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release channels (RyR1) and their interaction determine the efficacy of the sarcolemmal excitation-SR Ca2+ release-contraction coupling (ECC). Both receptors play a central role in ECC as demonstrated in various animal species and muscle subtypes. In the present work we studied the effect of transgenic overexpression of human insulin-like growth factor 1 (hIGF-1) on the levels of these two Ca2+ channels in extensor digitorum longus (EDL) (fast-twitch), soleus (slow-twitch) and pool of fast- and slow-twitch muscles from adult C57BL/6 mice. Muscles from hIGF-1 transgenic mice showed a significant increase in IGF-1 concentration (20–30-fold) and in the number of DHPR (52% increase) whereas no significant change in RyR1 binding sites was detected. The differential effect on DHPR and RyR1 resulted in a 30% increase in DHPR/RyR1 ratio. Fast- and slow-twitch muscles showed 50 and 70% increase in the number of DHPR and 30 and 80% increase in DHPR/RyR1, respectively. These results support the concept that the increased autocrine/paracrine secretion of hIGF-1 exerts potent stimulatory effects on DHPR α1 subunit expression in adult skeletal muscle

Further evidence of antibunching of two coherent beams of fermions

We describe an experiment confirming the evidence of the antibunching effect on a beam of non interacting thermal neutrons. The comparison between the results recorded with a high energy-resolution source of neutrons and those recorded with a broad energy-resolution source enables us to clarify the role played by the beam coherence in the occurrence of the antibunching effect.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
