Antioxidant Phenolic Compounds in Salvia officinalis L. and Salvia sclarea L.

2018

Abstract The differences in the chemical composition of the phenolic compounds of Salvia officinalis versus Salvia sclarea growing in different habitats, were studied. First, the optimal solvent - methanol - for ultrasonic extraction of phenolic compounds from these plants was chosen experimentally. Total phenolic content and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assays were determined spectrophotometrically. Total phenolic content was in the range of 63.9 to 134.4 mg GAE/g of plant depending on the studied species. The highest antiradical activity was displayed by the methanol fractions of S. sclarea varieties (83 and 67%). HPLC-DAD analysis of extracts was done in order to identify the pre…

Co-Designing Social Simulation Models For Policy Advise: Lessons Learned From the INFSO-SKIN Study

2019

This paper describes a participatory approach to co-designing social simulation models with policymakers using a case study of modeling European Commission policy. Managing the collaboration of a wide range of individuals or organizations is challenging but increasingly important as policy making becomes more complex. A framework for a co-design process based on a participatory approach is proposed. The framework suggests that the collaborative design should go through the following phases: Identifying user questions, data provision, model discussion for validation, visualization of results and discussing scope and limitations with stakeholders. Key findings are that the co-design process r…

Étude de prévalence de l’endométriose à la Réunion et en métropole à partir du PMSI

2015

Introduction Objectif principal : determiner la prevalence des hospitalisations pour endometriose a la Reunion et en metropole. Objectif secondaire : apprecier l’evolution des soins chirurgicaux pour cette pathologie dans l’ile comparee a la metropole. L’endometriose est une maladie de la femme reglee. Les principaux modes de decouverte sont la douleur et l’infertilite. Le diagnostic de certitude repose sur la cœlioscopie et donc sur une hospitalisation. Methodes Du 1/01/2008 au 31/12/2012, a partir du PMSI national, nous avons releve les codes de diagnostic principal concernant l’endometriose (N800 a N809). Dans cette population, nous avons consulte les actes realises et ceux qui concernai…

Incidence de l’endophtalmie aiguë postopératoire après chirurgie de la cataracte par phacoémulsification et injection intracamérulaire d’antibiotique…

2016

National audience; Introduction La chirurgie de la cataracte est l’intervention la plus fréquente dans le monde. Parmi ses complications, l’endophtalmie aiguë postopératoire (EAPO) est une infection intraoculaire sévère, qui peut conduire à la cécité. Les objectifs étaient de déterminer l’incidence de l’EAPO après chirurgie de la cataracte par phacoémulsification en France de 2005 à 2014 et d’analyser l’association entre injection intracamérulaire d’antibiotique (IICA) et EAPO. Méthodes Tous les patients hospitalisés pour une chirurgie de la cataracte en France entre le 1er janvier 2005 et le 31 décembre 2014 ont été identifiés dans le programme de médicalisation des systèmes d’information …

¿Pueden “viajar” las guías NICE? Reflexiones sobre su aplicabilidad en la Comunitat Valenciana en España

2017

El artículo pretende reflexionar sobre las oportunidades que supone la adaptación de las Guías de Salud Pública del “National Institute for Health and Care Excellence” (NICE) al contexto de la Comunitat Valenciana en España. Los principales elementos para el éxito de esta adaptación serían: disponer de apoyo directivo; activar un proceso (partiendo de la metodología de NICE) mediante la creación de comités con actores claves dado el tema que se aborda; complementar la revisión de la evidencia con publicaciones y prácticas del entorno español; tener en cuenta las diferencias sociales y sanitarias entre Inglaterra y la Comunitat Valenciana; identificar responsables y escenarios para aplicar …

Food, health and society: the town meets the countryside

2017

It is not long time that food culture has undertaken a process of renewal started when severe food safety problems did reveal through the “food scandals”: the so called mad cow disease (BSE, Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy) or the swine flu and bird flu, and other various contaminations occurred in the late 20th century. The first development in food culture, so long, was due to safety needs but was the beginning of a new consciousness about the importance of food and diet on human health. Quickly, the demand for quality food oriented itself towards qualitative – local, traditional, organic – food features. This was a great challenge and a new opportunity for agriculture: to supply valuabl…

Activos para la salud en cuidadores familiares de enfermos de Alzheimer: desarrollo de un mapa de activos para la salud

2019

El Alzheimer es la enfermedad más prevalente en mayores de 65 años, siendo una enfermedad neurodegenerativa progresiva. El cuidado de estas personas enfermas se sustenta, en la mayoría de los casos, desde el núcleo familiar, siendo éste quien sufre las consecuencias del cuidado. Tradicionalmente, el estudio y análisis de las personas cuidadoras se ha realizado desde perspectivas de déficit o negativas. El presente estudio introduce el modelo salutogénico y de activos para la salud, e intenta comprender el valor positivo del cuidado y la superación de las circunstancias adversas, a través de aquellas habilidades o recursos del cuidador o de su entorno que le ayudan a afrontar de forma posit…

Discordancia entre fuentes estadísticas sanitarias de ámbito nacional (EMH y EESCRI, 1990-2009). Análisis de la morbilidad psiquiátrica

2016

Resumen Introduccion Dos fuentes estadisticas sanitarias proporcionan datos sobre altas y estancias en todos los hospitales espanoles: la Encuesta de Morbilidad Hospitalaria (EMH) y la Estadistica de Establecimientos Sanitarios con Regimen de Internado (EESCRI). Nuestro objetivo es contrastar ambas fuentes para definir su precision y pertinencia en estudios de epidemiologia psiquiatrica. Material y metodos Se focaliza el analisis en 2 aspectos: 1.- comparar el numero de altas y estancias psiquiatricas recogidas entre 1990-2009; 2.- analizar y comparar el modo en que se proporciona la estancia media. Resultados Las diferencias entre ambas fuentes son profundas y aumentan con el tiempo. En 20…

Tracas quotidiens des étudiants de première année de grandes écoles : liens avec la santé mentale perçue et la qualité de vie

2014

Resume L’entree dans une grande ecole, avec les nombreux changements occasionnes, peut etre consideree comme une situation potentiellement stressante. Nous avons donc souhaite identifier les difficultes rencontrees par les etudiants inscrits en premiere annee et leurs eventuelles repercussions sur leur sante et leur qualite de vie. Les resultats obtenus montrent que les tracas les plus frequents et les plus genants sont lies a la reussite dans les etudes (examens), a la gestion du temps (ne pas avoir le temps de faire ce que l’on voudrait faire), aux relations interpersonnelles (eloignement d’un etre cher) et a la sante (sommeil et reveil) avec des repercussions non negligeables sur leur sa…

Eawag-Soil in enviPath: a new resource for exploring regulatory pesticide soil biodegradation pathways and half-life data.

2017

Developing models for the prediction of microbial biotransformation pathways and half-lives of trace organic contaminants in different environments requires as training data easily accessible and sufficiently large collections of respective biotransformation data that are annotated with metadata on study conditions. Here, we present the Eawag-Soil package, a public database that has been developed to contain all freely accessible regulatory data on pesticide degradation in laboratory soil simulation studies for pesticides registered in the EU (282 degradation pathways, 1535 reactions, 1619 compounds and 4716 biotransformation half-life values with corresponding metadata on study conditions)…
