Perspectives for the Treatment of Brucellosis in the 21st Century: The Ioannina Recommendations
2007
Policy Forum. Competing interests: ER has received research grants from Daiichi, Bayer, and Theravance and has served as a consultant to Pfizer, Theravance, Bayer, Wyeth, Rosetta, and BiondVax. Summary Points Brucellosis remains the commonest anthropozoonosis worldwide, and its treatment remains complex, requiring protracted administration of more than one antibiotic. In November 2006, a consensus meeting aimed at reaching a common specialist statement on the treatment of brucellosis was held in Ioannina, Greece under the auspices of the International Society of Chemotherapy and the Institute of Continuing Medical Education of Ioannina. The author panel suggests that the optimal treatment o…
International BEAT-PCD Consensus Statement for Infection Prevention and Control for Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia in collaboration with ERN-LUNG PCD Cor…
2021
Introduction In primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) impaired mucociliary clearance leads to recurrent airway infections and progressive lung destruction, and concern over chronic airway infection and patient-to-patient transmission is considerable. So far, there has been no defined consensus on how to control infection across centres caring for patients with PCD. Within the BEAT-PCD network, COST Action and ERS CRC together with the ERN-Lung PCD core a first initiative has now been taken towards creating such a consensus statement. Methods A multidisciplinary international PCD expert panel was set up to create a consensus statement for infection prevention and control (IP&C) for PCD, covering …
Quantum well intermixing in GaInNAs/GaAs structures
2003
We report on the characteristics of quantum well intermixing in GaInNAs/GaAs structures of differing N content. Rapid thermal annealing combined with SiO2 caps deposited on the surface of the samples is used to disorder 1.3 mum GaInNAs/GaAs multiquantum wells which have been preannealed in-situ to the stage of blueshift saturation. The different effects of two capping layer deposition techniques on the interdiffusion of In-Ga have been compared, particular regarding the role of sputtering processes. The dependence of quantum well intermixing-induced photoluminescence blueshift on N concentration has provided extra information on the intrinsic properties of the GaInNAs/GaAs material system. …
ADC based measurements: A common basis for the uncertainty estimation
2010
In the last years, many Authors have dealt with the uncertainty evaluation of the measurement performed by using an analog-to-digital converter, proposing different approaches to analyze the uncertainty propagation. However, in these studies, in order to identify the uncertainty sources, different sets of parameters are used, and, often, it is not considered that the various uncertainty sources have different modalities of propagation. Obviously, this implies that the various proposed approaches are not directly comparable. One of the main reasons which has caused this situation is the coexistent of various Standards concerning the characterization of the analog-to-digital converters. There…

Le prix des paysages périurbains
2007
L'évaluation économique du prix des paysages périurbains utilise des analyses géographiques (occupation des sols, composition paysagère, distance à des biens paysagers, paysages vus : champ de vision, objets, formes). L'article fait le point sur la littérature en matière de méthode et de résultats et présente l'estimation du prix d'attributs paysagers dans la ceinture périurbaine de Dijon.
The value of peri-urban landscapes in a French real estate market
2011
Co-éditions : Wiley, Hoboken, USA; International audience; Nous étudions le prix hédoniste de paysages périurbains dans la région de Dijon (France) à partir de données individuelles de transactions de maisons, géoréférencées pour permettre de les apparier avec des données géographiques sur les paysages. Des variables paysagères sont constituées en calculant le paysage vu depuis le sol autour de ces maisons : plans de vision selon leur éloignement (six horizons sont distingués) et contenu de ceux-ci décliné en douze types d’occupation du sol. Les résultats montrent que la vue proprement dite compte, car les objets présents à proximité des maisons mais non vus ont un prix hédoniste inférieur …
