Risk factors for residual disease at re-TUR in a large cohort of T1G3 patients
2021
Item does not contain fulltext Introduction and objectives: The goals of transurethral resection of a bladder tumor (TUR) are to completely resect the lesions and to make a correct diagnosis in order to adequately stage the patient. It is well known that the presence of detrusor muscle in the specimen is a prerequisite to minimize the risk of under staging. Persistent disease after resection of bladder tumors is not uncommon and is the reason why the European Guidelines recommended a re-TUR for all T1 tumors. It was recently published that when there is muscle in the specimen, re-TUR does not influence progression or cancer specific survival. We present here the patient and tumor factors th…
Formal operations and postformal reasoning: A replication
1991
The relationship between formal operations and postformal reasoning was examined by using the Shayer (1978) chemicals problem to assess formal operations and the Commons, et al. (1982) four-story problem to measure postformal reasoning. The subjects were 35 undergraduate social science and humanities students. None of the subjects who were classified as concrete operational or transitional on the chemicals task showed postformal reasoning. The hypothesis that full format operations are a necessary condition of post-formal reasoning and the expectation that subjects showing full formal operations are more likely than others to exhibit postformal reasoning was not supported.
Biology of the preimaginal stages in trogid beetles (Coleoptera): Experimental data∗
1992
Abstract Some aspects of larval behaviour in two species of trogid beetles, Trox bispidus (Pontoppidan) from temperate Europe and Afromorgus tuberosus (Klug) from tropical Africa, have been studied experimentally. From the results obtained it emerges that the rise of the newborn larvae towards the soil surface is imputable to a simple negative geotropism. Larval food relocation also contributes to reducing aggressive interactions at the food source. The potential range of trophic and behavioural variation seems to be larger than that expressed in nature as a rule. This can contribute to explaining, in evolutive terms, the rare cases of transgression from a uniform trophic and behavioural pa…
Sensory & consumer studies with special populations: children and elderly
2015
revue créée en 2015; The need to adapt the usual sensory methods to face the particularities of children and elderly has been emphasized since many years. A diversity of methods that could be used with children according to their developmental stage, and to a lesser extent with elderly depending on their cognitive status, have been described. This review aims at underlining limits but also possibilities for measuring, in children and elderly, sensory reactions, food acceptance and also for exploring cognitive aspects of food perception. The main points to conduct successfully sensory and consumer studies with these populations are highlighted.
Morphological abnormalities induced by Fenoxycarb on the pupa ofPhanerotoma (Phanerotoma) ocularisKohl (Hym., Braconidae)
1993
Fenoxycarb at concentrations of 0.001 μg/ml, 0.005 μg/ml, 0.01 μg/ml, 0.05μg/ml and 0.1 μg/ml had an adverse effect on the pupa of Phanerotoma (Phanerotoma) ocularis. When topically applied, it induced morphological abnormalities. The percentage of anomalous obtained depended of developmental pupal stage and was higher when was applied in the first moment of development (80 %-90 %) than in the final of development (50%-60%). These anomalous was inviables. Zusammenfassung Morphologische Abnormitaten bei Puppen von Phanerotoma (Phanerotoma) ocularis Kohl (Hym., Braconidae) nach Einwirkung von Fenoxycarb Fenoxycarb, in Konzentrationen von 0.001 μg/ml, 0.0005 μg/ml, 0.01 μg/ml, 0.05 |μg/ml und …
Digestive Neuroendocrine Neoplasms (NEN): French Intergroup clinical practice guidelines for diagnosis, treatment and follow-up (SNFGE, GTE, RENATEN,…
2020
Abstract Introduction This document is a summary of the French Intergroup guidelines regarding the management of digestive neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) published in February 2020 ( www.tncd.org ). Methods All French medical societies involved in the management of NEN took part in this work. Recommendations were graded into four categories (A, B, C or D), according to the level of evidence found in the literature until May 2019. Results The management of NEN is challenging because of their heterogeneity and the increasing complexity of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Pathological analysis is required for their diagnostic and prognostic characterization, which mainly relies on differ…
New Theoretical Solution of Stage-Discharge Relationship for Slit Weirs
2018
In this paper, the flow-process of a slit weir was analyzed on the basis of a theorem of dimensional analysis and incomplete selfsimilarity theory. The theoretically deduced stage-discharge formula then was calibrated using experimental data obtained for a ratio between the weir and the channel width, ranging from 0.05 to 0.25. The deduced stage-discharge relationship allowed measuring discharge values characterized by errors that, for 98% of the measured values, were less than or equal to 5%. The performance of the proposed theoreticalstage-discharge formula also was improved by introducing the Reynolds number (for 98.5% of the measured values the error was less than or equal to 5%, and th…
L'effet de la qualité des stages sur l'insertion professionnelle : le cas des diplômés de l'enseignement supérieur
2010
En ligne sur le site du CEREQ : www.cereq.fr/pdf/Net-doc-71.pdf; Document de travail du CEREQ (Net.doc, n°71, septembre 2010); Les stages sont régulièrement présentés comme une condition nécessaire, si ce n'est suffisante, d'une bonne insertion sur le marché du travail. Les compétences acquises en dehors du système éducatif procureraient aux stagiaires un avantage décisif pour trouver un emploi. Des inquiétudes sont néanmoins apparues ces dernières années face à une multiplication des stages dans le parcours des étudiants, ce qui retarderait leur accès à une première activité salariée sans pour autant donner une réelle valeur professionnelle à ces expériences acquises en cours d'études. Ils…
Strategy of Treatment in the Advanced Stages — Round Table Report
1983
Although cancer of the prostate is completely preventable by castration before puberty, prevention at such a price is obviously out of the question. Equally, in later life, it is necessary to weigh up the cost to the patient, in terms of quality of life, of any slight extension of its duration. Denis reminded us that in autumn it is not the length of days but their freedom from distress which should be our primary concern.
Psychosocial maladjustment in adolescence: parental socialization, self-esteem, and substance use
2018
Este estudio analiza la vulnerabilidad de los adolescentes a par- tir de la autoestima y el consumo de sustancias, y la protección o riesgo del estilo de socialización. La muestra fue de 1445 adolescentes españoles (59.4% mujeres), 600 tempranos de 12 a 15 años (41.5%) y 845 tardíos de 16 a 17 años (58.5%). Las familias se clasificaron en una de las cuatro tipo- logías: indulgente, autorizativa, autoritaria y negligente. El ajuste de los hijos se midió con autoestima (emocional, familiar y física) y consumo de sustan- cias (alcohol, tabaco, cannabis y drogas de síntesis). Los resultados mostra- ron que en la adolescencia tardía la vulnerabilidad fue mayor que en la tem- prana. Se encontró u…
