La part des cotisations dans le budget des confédérations syndicales
2012
The paper analyses the budget of the seven French trade union confederations (CGT, CFDT, FO, CFTC, CGC, and USS UNSA). Since 2011, these organizations are obliged to publish their budgets according to the principle of transparency. The main purpose was to give the members' dues the higher weight in the total of the trade union budgets. Each organization has defined its reporting entity in terms of this issue. They did "derive" at the federal level the maximum members' contributions - even when these contributions were not intended to the federal level - and they housed most grants and subsidies in satellites outside their perimeter. Finally, the staffs made available, free of charge, to the…
L'école, l'état des savoirs
2000
L'école constitue aujourd'hui plus que jamais un des enjeux majeurs de l'action politique et occupe une place importante dans les débats publics. L'efficacité du système scolaire, sa capacité d'intégration, son organisation, l'orientation des contenus d'enseignement, la formation et les pratiques pédagogiques des enseignants font l'objet de multiples critiques et propositions émanant de tous les bords. Cet ouvrage collectif, accessible aux non-spécialistes, a pour ambition d'éclairer ces débats. Rassemblant près de cinquante contributions, il présente un état des savoirs le plus complet possible sur la situation de l'école française.On y trouvera une analyse des différents réseaux, niveaux …
Inhibitory effect of A10 dopaminergic neurons of the ventral tegmental area on the orienting response evoked by acoustic stimulation in the cat.
1998
Abstract The effect of bilateral electric stimulation of A10 dopaminergic neurons of the ventral tegmental area (80–300 μA, 20–50 Hz, 0.1–0.5 ms, 2 s duration) on latency and duration of the orienting response, evoked by acoustic stimuli (4500–8000 Hz, 2 s), was studied in the cat. A10 neuron stimulation, simultaneous with the acoustic one, was performed with threshold parameters inducing minimal behavioral signs (head searching movement, sniffing, increase in alertness). By means of a videoanalysis system, a statistically significant increase, both of latency and duration of the response, was observed. The possible role of dopamine was studied administrating sulpiride (20 mg/kg IP), a dopa…

Possible transmission flow of SARS-CoV-2 based on ACE2 features
2020
AbstractAngiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is the cellular receptor for the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that is engendering the severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The spike (S) protein receptor-binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2 binds to the three sub-domains viz. amino acids (aa) 22-42, aa 79-84, and aa 330-393 of ACE2 on human cells to initiate entry. It was reported earlier that the receptor utilization capacity of ACE2 proteins from different species, such as cats, chimpanzees, dogs, and cattle, are different. A comprehensive analysis of ACE2 receptors of nineteen species was carried out in this study, and the findings propose a pos…
Cationic Amino Acid Transporters (CATs)
2002
When the transport properties of mCAT-1 were described in 1991, the y+ carrier and major transporter for cationic amino acids seemed to be discovered. Today, we know that there are at least three different CAT isoforms that mediate y+ activity and the family might be growing. In addition, transport systems for cationic amino acids other than y + have been described and proteins that induce the respective transport activities have been identified. Consequently, the transport of cationic amino acids appears to be a complex process involving many proteins— carriers and possibly also regulatory proteins—whose expression is cell-specific and dependent on a variety of external stimuli. The multit…
Effect of an oral dietary supplementation by a formulation based on silibinin-phosphatidylcholine complex in cats with liver diseases
2017
Background: Liver pathology in cats represents a frequent clinical condition occurring in animals of any age. Dietary supplementation with hepatoprotective and antioxidant products could represent a beneficial strategy to prevent and treat these disorders. We evaluated the tolerability and efficacy of long-term treatment with a multi-component, dietary supplement containing functional natural ingredients with recognized hepatoprotective properties in cats suffering from liver diseases Methods: 20 European domestic cats of either gender, 10 with hepatic lipidosis and 10 with cholangitis received for 180 consecutive days a multi-component formulation based on the silibinin-phosphatidylcholine…

Clinical evaluation of automated capillary refill time estimation in dogs and cats
2019
In this study, we clinically evaluated a pulse oximeter-based device for automated capillary refill time (CRT) estimation in dogs and cats. CRT can reveal conditions like shock or anemia in dogs and cats. However, visual CRT estimation has low repeatability, and the available optical systems for automated estimation are not suitable for pets. We evaluated a custom-made portable CRT measuring device on various measurement sites of 12 dogs and 11 cats with parallel visual CRT estimation on the gum by treating veterinarian. The capillary refill was also recorded by a video camera for reference. The visual and video procedures were moderately correlated with the coefficient of 0.61; visual CRT …
Leishmania tarentolae and Leishmania infantum in humans, dogs and cats in the Pelagie archipelago, southern Italy.
2021
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by Leishmania infantum is endemic in the Mediterranean basin with most of the infected human patients remaining asymptomatic. Recently, the saurian-associated Leishmania tarentolae was detected in human blood donors and in sheltered dogs. The circulation of L. infantum and L. tarentolae was investigated in humans, dogs and cats living in the Pelagie islands (Sicily, Italy) by multiple serological and molecular testing. Human serum samples (n = 346) were tested to assess the exposure to L. infantum by immunofluorescence antibody test (IFAT), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blot (WB) and to L. tarentolae by IFAT. Meanwhile, sera from do…
