Can the lesions induced with actinic keratosis become an enigma for dermatologists? Results of an open perspective study

2017

Different face skin diseases (basal cell carcinoma, actinic keratosis, rosacea, solar elastosis, etc.) could clinically manifest itself as erythematic patches, pimples or plagues. It is very hard to make the clinical exclusion in some cases of these diseases since their characters can partially overlap or certain lesion can mimic another one especially in the cases of skin areas affected with sun. Therefore, the histopathological analysis remains the “golden standard” of the dermatological diagnosis at skin diseases. Our study has shown that certified dermatologists detect actinic keratosis (AK) of face/head skin of I/II levels very well. Verdicts of dermatologists and pathomorfologists are…

Fasting does not guarantee empty stomach in the intensive care unit: A prospective ultrasonographic evaluation (The NUTRIGUS study).

2021

BACKGROUND In the intensive care unit (ICU), a fasting period is usually respected to avoid gastric aspiration during airway management procedures. Since there are no recognised guidelines, intensive care physicians balance the aspiration risk with the negative consequences of underfeeding. Our objective was to determine the impact of fasting on gastric emptying in critically ill patients by using gastric ultrasound. MATERIAL AND METHODS Among the 112 patients that met the inclusion criteria, 100 patients were analysed. Gastric ultrasonography was performed immediately before extubation. Patients with either 1/ an absence of visualised gastric content (qualitative evaluation) or 2/ a gastri…

Consequences of analgesics use in early pregnancy: Results of tests on mice.

2019

International audience; Self-medication during pregnancy continues to be an issue in developing countries due topoor medical education. The most commonly used drugs are analgesics, mainlyacetaminophen (paracetamol, APAP) and, to a lesser extent, ketoprofen (KPF). The aim of thestudy was to establish whether there are consequences of accidental use of these two drugsduring early embryogenesis. The experimental study was performed on 30 pregnant whitemice, divided into three groups: a first group to which APAP was administered, a secondgroup to which KPF was administered, and group 3 as a control group. At delivery, the babymice were examined, and after their first parturition, they were take…

Does an intervention based on the pleasure of eating healthy foods could favour a positive relationship between food liking and perceived healthiness…

2019

International audience; It is generally admitted that consumers perceived unhealthy foods as tastier than healthy foods. However, the opposite association was found in French adults (Werle et al., 2013). Moreover, Marty et al. (2018) found that French children liked healthy foods as much as unhealthy foods. However, the link between liking and perceived healthiness in children needs to be further investigated, in particular at the individual level. Thus, our study aims, first at assessing the link between liking and perceived healthiness in children and, second at determining whether this potential link was modified after an intervention promoting pleasure of consuming healthy foods. To do …

Galvenie akūta retrovirāla sindroma simptomi, ādas un gļotādas izpausmes HIV pozitīviem pacientiem korelācijā ar imūnsupresiju un CD4 T šūnu skaitu L…

2018

Ievads: HIV ir viens no visplašāk izplatījiem vīrusu patogēniem pasaulē. Slimības akūtās fāzes izpausmes ir grūti pamanāmas. Pašreizējie pētījumi liecina, ka svaigi inficēti pacienti gūst priekšrocības no agrīnas diagnostikas attiecībā uz slimības gaitu un dzīves pagarināšanu. Tā kā ādas izpausmes ir vienas no visbiežāk sastopamajām, ir svarīgi tās kritiski izvērtēt gadījumā, ja tās parādās citādi veselīga izskata pacientam. Mērķi: Pētījuma mērķis ir analizēt akūtā retrovīrusu sindroma (ARS) galvenos simptomus, lai veicinātu diagnostiku jau akūtas HIV infekcijas laikā, un noteikt, vai pastāv cieša saikne starp noteiktu ādas bojājumu rašanos un CD4 T šūnu skaitu. Materiāli un metodes: pētīju…

Molecular and Macromolecular Changes in Bottle-Aged White Wines Reflect Oxidative Evolution–Impact of Must Clarification and Bottle Closure

2018

This article is part of the Research Topic "The Chemistry of Wine Ageing" Adresse de correspondance: Institut Universitaire de la Vigne et du Vin, Dijon, France PMCID: PMC5897750; International audience; Chardonnay wines from Burgundy, obtained from musts with three levels of clarification (Low, Medium and High) during two consecutive vintages (2009 and 2010) and for two kinds of closures (screw caps and synthetic coextruded closures) were analyzed chemically and sensorially. Three bottles per turbidity level were opened in 2015 in order to assess the intensity of the reductive and/or oxidative aromas (REDOX sensory scores) by a trained sensory panel. The chemical analyses consisted in poly…

Non-conscious effect of food odors on children's food choices varies by weight status

2017

Open access original research (article number UNSP 16); OBJECTIVE: Food cues are omnipresent in the daily environment and may influence eating behavior even non-consciously. An increased reactivity to food cues, such as food odors, has been shown to be correlated with obesity in children. The objective of this study is to investigate whether the non-conscious influence of food odors on children's food choices varies by their weight status. METHODS: Seventy-four children, of whom 29 were obese, took part in this study. The children performed a food choice intention task presented as a computer game in which 30 pairs of food images (a fatty-sweet food picture vs. a fruit picture) successively…

The effectiveness of green tea and sonophoresis on oily skin: a case report

2022

Background: Oily skin can be extremely problematic for sufferersand presents a great challenge for cosmetologists. This condition is characterized by an excessive amount of sebum on epidermal surface and enlarged skin pores.Modern cosmetology is able to offer a wide range of treatments that are able to reduce excess sebum secretion, and an appropriate diagnosis and cosmetic interview will allow for the selection of a suitable cosmetic treatment. If there are no contraindications for device treatments and the client is not allergic to cosmetic products, an ultrasound treatment called sonophoresis may be used. Green tea is obtained from both the leaves and buds of the Camellia sinensis plant.…
