Identified Risk Factors Among Truck Drivers Circulating in France

2020

The growth of the European market for road-freight transport has recently led to important changes. Moreover, due to the geographical context of France, truck drivers from different countries circulate on French roads to deliver their goods.

Aiming at collecting data among truck drivers from different European countries, the questionnaire has been translated into seven languages and has been administered at four highway rest areas in France. The collected data were analyzed by means of multiple correspondence analysis, which pointed out new links between wo…

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on urological practice in emergency departments in Italy

2020

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) and the disease it causes, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), are causing a rapid and tragic health emergency worldwide [1,2]. Italy was the first European country to experience a virus outbreak, starting on 21 February 2020. It resulted in a national quarantine, and the official lockdown of the country’s non-essential businesses and services began on 9 March 2020. Although several reports are available in the literature providing recommendations for the reorganization of clinical and surgical activities [3–7], to our knowledge, no data are available on the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the outcomes of other medical conditi…

The Collaboration of Lewis Carroll and Harry Furniss: illustrating the Sylvie and Bruno books

2008

The collaboration between Harry Furniss and Lewis Carroll did not stem from friendship, but from necessity: Carroll always illustrated his own texts as he wrote them, but his drawing skills were not good enough for publication. Yet it was impossible for him to write up the novel if the illustrating process did not take place simultaneously. To what extent is the collaborative creation of Sylvie and Bruno a real dialogue? Did Carroll only consider Furniss as an extension of himself? The correspondence between the two men allows us to analyse the complex relationship between the writer and the artist, but also acts as a prism that decomposes Carrollian creation into its graphic and textual co…

A multiple-response chi-square framework for the analysis of Free-Comment and Check-All-That-Apply data

2021

International audience; Free-Comment (FC) and Check-All-That-Apply (CATA) provide a contingency table containing citation counts of descriptors by products. The analyses performed on this table are most often related to the chi-square statistic. However, such practices are not well suited because they consider experimental units as being the citations (one descriptor for one product by one subject) while the evaluations (vector of citations for one product by one subject) should be considered instead. This results in incorrect expected frequencies under the null hypothesis of independence between products and descriptors and thus in an incorrect chi-square statistic. Thus, analyses related …
