Le stationnement à Besançon
Depuis les années 1950, le recours à l'automobile pour de courts trajets quotidiens ne cesse de croître au détriment des autres moyens de transport, ce qui occasionne divers désagréments :encombrements qui engendrent la disparition des fonctions sociales de la rue, atteintes à l'environnement urbain qui dégradent la qualité de vie, accidents de la route générés par la densité et la rapidité du trafic
Le logement en Franche-comté, construction et réhabilitation dans les années 90
Le parc résidentiel franc-comtois se répartit dans l'espace de façon hétérogène et n'évolue pas dans tous les cantons de manière identique. La construction et la réhabilitation de logements sont deux indicateurs qui nous permettent d'étudier ce phénomène. En 1990, l'INSEE a recensé 408 281 logements. Après avoir subi un certain recul au cours de la décennie précédente, la construction de logements a connu une certaine embellie entre 1992 et 1994, elle s'est ensuite stabilisée aux alentours de 6 000 logements mis en chantier annuellement

Specific Pharmacological Profile of A 2A Adenosine Receptor Predicts Reduced Fractional Flow Reserve in Patients With Suspected Coronary Artery Disease
International audienceBackground: The rapid and reliable exclusion of myocardial revascularization is a major unmet clinical need in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) and non‐contributive electrocardiography and troponin. Non‐invasive tests have high rates of false positives and negatives, and there is no biomarker to assess myocardial ischemia. The presence of spare adenosine A2A receptors (A2AR)—characterized by a high dissociation constant/half maximal effective concentration (KD/EC50) ratio—expressed on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) has been associated with ischemia during exercise stress testing in patients with CAD. In this work, we investigated the diagnostic accuracy of spare A2AR versus fractional flow reserve (FFR) in patients with suspected CAD.Methods and Results: Sixty patients with suspected CAD, but non‐contributive electrocardiography and troponin, were consecutively enrolled in this prospective study. The binding (KD), functional response (cyclic adenosine monophosphate [cAMP] production; EC50) on PBMC A2AR were compared with FFR results. Patients were divided into 3 groups: 17 (group 1) with normal coronary angiography (n=13) or stenosis <20% (n=4); 21 with CAD and non‐significant FFR (group 2); and 22 with CAD and significant FFR (group 3). Median KD/EC50 was 6‐fold higher in group 3 (4.20; interquartile range: 2.81–5.00) than group 2 (0.66; interquartile range: 0.47–1.25) and 7‐fold higher than group 1 (0.60; interquartile range: 0.30–0.66).Conclusions: In patients with suspected CAD and non‐contributive electrocardiography and troponin, the absence of spare A2AR on PBMC may help to rule out myocardial ischemia
Investigation of Shared Genetic Risk Factors Between Parkinson's Disease and Cancers
BackgroundEpidemiological studies that examined the association between Parkinson's disease (PD) and cancers led to inconsistent results, but they face a number of methodological difficulties.ObjectiveWe used results from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) to study the genetic correlation between PD and different cancers to identify common genetic risk factors.MethodsWe used individual data for participants of European ancestry from the Courage-PD (Comprehensive Unbiased Risk Factor Assessment for Genetics and Environment in Parkinson's Disease; PD, N = 16,519) and EPITHYR (differentiated thyroid cancer, N = 3527) consortia and summary statistics of GWASs from iPDGC (International Parkinson Disease Genomics Consortium; PD, N = 482,730), Melanoma Meta-Analysis Consortium (MMAC), Breast Cancer Association Consortium (breast cancer), the Prostate Cancer Association Group to Investigate Cancer Associated Alterations in the Genome (prostate cancer), International Lung Cancer Consortium (lung cancer), and Ovarian Cancer Association Consortium (ovarian cancer) (N comprised between 36,017 and 228,951 for cancer GWASs). We estimated the genetic correlation between PD and cancers using linkage disequilibrium score regression. We studied the association between PD and polymorphisms associated with cancers, and vice versa, using cross-phenotypes polygenic risk score (PRS) analyses.ResultsWe confirmed a previously reported positive genetic correlation of PD with melanoma (Gcorr = 0.16 [0.04; 0.28]) and reported an additional significant positive correlation of PD with prostate cancer (Gcorr = 0.11 [0.03; 0.19]). There was a significant inverse association between the PRS for ovarian cancer and PD (odds ratio [OR] = 0.89 [0.84; 0.94]). Conversely, the PRS of PD was positively associated with breast cancer (OR = 1.08 [1.06; 1.10]) and inversely associated with ovarian cancer (OR = 0.95 [0.91; 0.99]). The association between PD and ovarian cancer was mostly driven by rs183211 located in an intron of the NSF gene (17q21.31).ConclusionsWe show evidence in favor of a contribution of pleiotropic genes to the association between PD and specific cancers. © 2023 The Authors.
