Variations spatiales et temporelles des communautés adventices des cultures annuelles en France
2007
Although arable weed species are particularly well adapted to habitats characterised by high levels of disturbance(ploughing, harvest), the degree and rate at which agro-ecosytems have been transformed in the last 50 years in Europe(use of chemicals, changes in crop rotations) has led to profound changes in the composition and diversity of arable weedcommunities. This thesis provides an update on the composition and diversity of weed communities that can be foundacross the main crop types and regions of France. It also addresses two objectives i) applying (community) ecologytheories for the analysis and interpretation of spatial and temporal variations in weed communities and ii) using the …
Response to: 'Artery tertiary lymphoid organs in giant cell arteritis are not exclusively located in the media of temporal arteries' by Graver et al
2017
We thank Graver et al 1 for their interest in our recently published article on artery tertiary lymphoid organs (ATLOs) in giant cell arteritis (GCA).2 The authors stained temporal artery biopsies of 21 biopsy-proven GCA patients (71% female, mean duration of disease of 2.3±0.9 months) that fulfilled the 1990 American College of Rheumatology classification criteria with anti-CD20 and anti-CD3 antibodies. On the basis of this experimental approach, they confirmed the presence of ATLOs only in the adventitia of inflamed arteries of GCA patients and not in the media as demonstrated in our study. This statement, however, is not supported in our opinion by the experimental approach chosen …
Physiopathologie des vascularites primitives des gros vaisseaux
2016
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu's arteritis (TA) are two granulomatous vasculitis affecting large arteries that present specific epidemiological and clinical features. Their pathogenesis is not fully understood but major advances have been obtained during the last years, thus allowing the emergence of new therapeutic strategies. GCA and TA develop on a specific genetic background but share some similarities regarding the immunological pathways involved in their pathogenesis. The trigger of these diseases is not clearly identified but it is thought that an infectious agent could activate and lead to the maturation of dendritic cells that are localized in the adventitia of arteries. T…
Adventures of Clinical Psychology

Clinical psychology strives to fully grasp the person in his totality and in his individuality, helping him adequately address his own deep internal suffering and discomfort, social uneasiness, and harmonize his own needs, desires and, attachments [...]
Aspectos pragmático-lingüísticos del discurso del turismo de aventura: estudio de un caso: estudio de un caso
2014
El objetivo de este trabajo es ofrecer una visión general del discurso turístico con respecto a sus principales características pragmático-lingüísticas y contrastarlo con un subsegmento turístico concreto. En este caso, nos aproximaremos al turismo de aventura, un tipo de turismo que está creciendo exponencialmente en los últimos años y que, por tanto, está ganando importancia en el sector turístico en España. Para ello, analizaremos un corpus de textos promocionales sobre este tipo de turismo a fin de ejemplificar dichas características e ilustrar a los traductores profesionales acerca de las posibles dificultades que puedan encontrar durante la traducción de este tipo de textos al español…
Immunohistochemical profile of human pancreatic pacinian corpuscles.
2010
To analyze the immunohistochemical profile of the human pancreatic pacinian corpuscles in comparison with that of the cutaneous pacinian corpuscles. In addition, we studied a Pacinilike corpuscle found in the adventitia of a pancreatic artery.We used immunohistochemistry to detect specific antigens for corpuscular constituents, specific antibodies for the identification of Adelta- and C-sensory fibers and for the detection of several growth factor receptors, and some members of the degenerin/epithelial Na channel superfamily of proteins.Approximately 62% of pancreatic pacinian corpuscles have 2 to 10 axonic profiles each enclosed by its own inner core: 1 or 2 of these axonic profiles displa…
Surgical Anatomy of the Rectovaginal Space: Does a Standalone Rectovaginal Septum or Denonvilliers Fascia Exist in Women?
2021
Background Below the anterior peritoneal reflection, the anterior rectal wall and mesorectum are separated from the posterior vaginal wall by a virtual rectovaginal space. In this space, the description of a specific and independent rectovaginal septum as a female counterpart of Denonvilliers fascia has been the subject of debate over the years. Objective The aim of this study is to perform an accurate anatomical study of the rectovaginal area in a cadaveric simulation model of total mesorectal excision to evaluate the possible structures and the dissection planes contained within the rectovaginal space. Design and setting This is a cadaveric study performed at the University of Valencia. P…
Organogenesis and encapsulation of in vitro-derived propagules of Carrizo citrange [Citrus sinensis (L.) Osb. × Poncirius trifoliata (L.) Raf]
2011
Due to widespread polyembryony, Citrus rootstocks are usually propagated by open-pollinated seed germination, although micropropagation offers many advantages. Encapsulation technology has recently attracted the interest of researchers in the field of plant propagation because it combines the advantages of zygotic or gamic seeds with those of micropropagation. In this study, we examined the encapsulation of Carrizo citrange uninodal microcuttings (3–4 mm long) and evaluated the influence of the calcium alginate coating, a short time storage at cold temperature, and different sowing substrates on the viability and regrowth of the explants. A secondary aim was to develop an efficient protocol…
Pathogénie de l’artérite à cellules géantes
2012
Giant-cell arteritis (GCA) involves larges arteries, especially aorta and extra-cranial branches of external carotid. Histo-pathological lesions affect all the layers of the artery leading to a segmental and focal panarteritis with a polymorphic cell infiltrate including T cells, macrophages and multinucleated giant cells, a fragmented internal elastic lamina and an intimal hyperplasia. The pathophysiology of GCA is not fully understood. After dendritic cell activation in the adventitia, CD4T cells are recruited in the arterial wall and polarized into Th1 and Th17 cells that produce IFN-γ and IL-17. These cytokines activate macrophages, giant cells and smooth muscle cells inducing vascular …
Comment conseillers et agriculteurs contribuent au développement d'un modèle d'aide à la décision pour la gestion agroécologique de la flore adventic…
2019
Prod 2019-15kEASPEGESTADINRAAGROSUPDOCT; Afin de réduire l’utilisation d’herbicides, nous avons besoin d'outils pour aider à concevoir des stratégies de gestion des adventices économes en herbicides. Dans ce but, nous avons développé un outil d'aide à la conception de systèmes de culture réconciliant protection des cultures et des écosystèmes. La démarche fait intervenir en parallèle le développement de la structure de ce nouvel outil d’aide à la décision (OAD) en interaction avec les futurs utilisateurs (conseillers et agriculteurs) et une simplification du contenu biophysique du modèle FLORSYS pour l’évaluation des impacts des adventices. L'OAD résultant, DECIFLORSYS, est composé : (1) du…
