Anthropometric Indicators as a Tool for Diagnosis of Obesity and Other Health Risk Factors: A Literature Review

2021

[EN] Obesity is characterized by the accumulation of an excessive amount of fat mass (FM) in the adipose tissue, subcutaneous, or inside certain organs. The risk does not lie so much in the amount of fat accumulated as in its distribution. Abdominal obesity (central or visceral) is an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and cancer, having an important role in the so-called metabolic syndrome. Therefore, it is necessary to prevent, detect, and appropriately treat obesity. The diagnosis is based on anthropometric indices that have been associated with adiposity and its distribution. Indices themselves, or a combination of some of them, conform to a big picture with di…

A little walk between Early Jurassic sponges and corals: a confusing morphological convergence.

2019

24 pages; International audience; Hispaniastraea Turnšek et Geyer, 1975 is a unique coral genus from the Early Jurassic Epoch (Liassic). Corals of this genus are characterised by a highly dominant major septum and a set of eleven minor septa that are very short or even abortive. Initially discovered in Spain, new samples of this genus were depicted from Morocco by Beauvais in 1980; however, this genus was interpreted as a synonym of Pseudoseptifer Fischer, 1970, a chaetetid sponge (i.e., a sponge with siliceous spicules embedded in a calcareous skeleton). The skeleton of Pseudoseptifer is composed of adjacent tubules that increase by fissiparity by means of a pseudoseptum. Based on the stud…

Disséquer les épées à poignée métallique de l'âge du Bronze grâce à la tomographie : étude technique et champ des possibles

2022

Les épées à poignée métallique de l’âge du Bronze sont des objets complexes dont les techniques de production intéressent les archéologues depuis longtemps. Dès la fin des années 1950, des radiographies ont été réalisées afin de comprendre comment étaient coulées puis assemblées les différentes parties de ces armes. Cette méthode a constitué une avancée majeure dans l’étude du mobilier métallique en général et a considérablement renouvelé nos connaissances sur les techniques de production des objets métalliques, notamment en alliages cuivreux. Néanmoins, l’interprétation des clichés radiographiques peut s’avérer compliquée dans le cas d’objets complexes, formés de nombreuses pièces métalliq…

Condylar position indicator and T-scan system II in clinical evaluation of temporomandibular intracapsular disease.

2012

The pathogenesis of temporomandibular joint intracapsular disease (TMJI) is multifactorial and its diagnosis is not easy. In this work authors show two types of clinical analysis: the Condylar Position Indicator (CPI) and T-Scan 2 system.Twenty patients (mean age of 24.5 years) with TMJI problem and 10 healthy matched subjects (mean age: 25.4 years) were selected. Analysis of TMJI was performed on each patient by means of Condylar Position Indicator (CPI) and T-Scan System II tests.Eight patients presented vertical symmetrical condylar distraction greater than healthy subjects (P-value0.001). T-Scan showed a difference of Percentage of Force (POF) not greater than 5%. Seven patients showed …

Un nouveau regard sur les épées à poignée métallique de l’âge du Bronze à la lumière des rayons X

2023

Les épées de l’âge du Bronze, a fortiori celles à poignée métallique, figurent parmi les objets les mieux documentés de la période, avec un grand nombre d’études réalisées à l’échelle européenne depuis la fin du XIXe siècle. Malgré tout, l’emploi de techniques d’imagerie utilisant les rayons X, telles que la radiographie et la tomographie, permettent de porter un regard nouveau sur ces armes grâce à l’examen de leurs entrailles qui révèlent certaines techniques mises en place par les artisans pour leur production. Ces épées sont en effet des objets complexes formés de plusieurs pièces agencées à l’aide de techniques variées, pour lesquelles les artisans de l’âge du Bronze se sont montrés tr…
