Mental health and psychosocial support strategies in highly contagious emerging disease outbreaks of substantial public concern: A systematic scoping…
2021
Background Acute disease outbreaks such as the COVID-19 pandemic cause a high burden of psychological distress in people worldwide. Interventions to enable people to better cope with such distress should be based on the best available evidence. We therefore performed a scoping review to systematically identify and summarize the available literature of interventions that target the distress of people in the face of highly contagious disease outbreaks. Methods MEDLINE, Cochrane CENTRAL, Web of Science (January 2000 to May 7, 2020), and reference lists were systematically searched and screened by two independent reviewers. Quantitative and qualitative studies investigating the effects of psyc…

User-oriented evaluation of mechanical single-channel axial pipettes.
2013
Hand tools should be designed so that they are comfortable to use, fit the hand and are user-oriented. Six different manual, single-channel axial pipettes were evaluated for such objective outcomes as muscular activity, wrist postures and efficiency, as well as for subjective outcomes concerning self-assessed features of pipette usability and musculoskeletal strain. Ten experienced laboratory employees volunteered for the study. The results showed that light and short pipettes with better tool comfort resulted in reduced muscular activity and perceived musculoskeletal strain when they were compared with a long and heavy pipette. There were no differences in the efficiency between the differ…
How was the Turin Shroud Man crucified?
2014
As the literature is not exhaustive with reference to the way the Turin Shroud (TS) Man was crucified, and it is not easy to draw significant information from only a "photograph" of a man on a linen sheet, this study tries to add some detail on this issue based on both image processing of high resolution photos of the TS and on experimental tests on arms and legs of human cadavers. With regard to the TS Man hands, a first hypothesis states that the left hand of the TS Man was nailed twice at two different anatomical sites: the midcarpal joint medially to the pisiform between the lunate/pyramidal and capitate/uncinate bones (Destot's space) and the radiocarpal joint between the radio, lunate…
Le sens de l’écart : la narration déconstruite dans les vidéos de Willie Doherty
2011
International audience; In his video works, all tightly focused on the Northern-Irish conflict, Willie Doherty probes the perpetrator-victim dyad and denounces the truncated visual representation of the conflict by deconstructing the relation between image and sound. The texts uttered by the voice-over raise political issues relevant to post-conflict Ireland, whether it be victimhood, national trauma or the construction of collective memory. Multiple open-ended interwoven narratives accompany images without closing their interpretation.; Dans les œuvres vidéographiques de l’artiste nord-irlandais Willie Doherty, les éléments narratifs entretiennent une relation complexe avec les images film…
Particularités de l'imagerie des traumatismes de l'appareil locomoteur chez l'enfant et l'adolescent (crâne et rachis exclus)
2013
Les lésions traumatiques du squelette en pratique pédiatrique sont fréquentes, faites de macrotraumatismes et de microtraumatismes répétés. Le diagnostic et le bilan de cette pathologie sont, dans l'immense majorité des cas, réalisés grâce aux clichés standards, surtout pour le squelette appendiculaire. Les fractures de l'enfant sont plus souvent diaphysométaphysaires incomplètes qu'épiphysométaphysaires. Elles touchent principalement le membre supérieur par ordre de fréquence. Il existe de nombreuses images pièges, variantes de la normale ; la consultation d'ouvrages de référence est fondamentale. Les clichés standards en incidences orthogonales sont la règle et permettent de diagnostiquer…
Violence de l'histoire et poélitiques théâtrales contemporaines : domaines anglais, français et francophone occidental
2016
International audience; Le théâtre mémoriel qui s’est développé ces dernières années est souvent considéré comme apolitique parce que consensuel. Violence de l’histoire et « poélitiques » théâtrales contemporaines (domaines anglais, français et francophone occidental) entend montrer qu’il n’en est rien. À partir d’un ensemble de pièces de Bond, Crimp, Mouawad, Cormann, Visniec et Kalisky, l’auteur définit un « théâtre de la mémoire et du traumatisme ». On cherche ici à montrer comment ce théâtre peut se faire réparateur du sujet dévasté par la violence de l’histoire de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle. Devenir sujet de son histoire, telle est la visée éminemment politique à laquelle particip…
