Suicide represent the second cause of death in Switzerland and, between 15 and 20 years of age, 8% of girls and 4% of boys have attempted suicide at least once in their life. "Universal" primary prevention in schools is usually run through courses dealing with the issue of suicide and which are systematically provided to all pupils. There is no evidence that they have any positive effect and even they may be in some instances harmful. The training of professionals working in the school setting to better identify and refer adolescents facing risky situation is probably effective. Another promising approach is the one which aims at improving the school climate in increasing social connectedness and the pupils' life skills. Finally, the school which faces a suicide should set up debriefing activities, thus deterring vulnerable pupils to engage in violent acting as a result of a contamination process.

A majority of smokers and non-smokers mind tobacco smoke. Passive smoking causes death by sudden infant death, lung cancer and coronary heart disease. 3000 to 6000 persons are killed every year in France. The lack of implementation of the Evin's law published in 1991 explains why non-smokers are not given the protection they can expect. The trend of scientific knowledge and of French and international public opinions support a growing demand for a complete protection of non-smokers with a total ban of smoking in all public or working places.

Depuis 1987, la Suisse dispose d'études répétées sur les comportements sexuels dans plusieurs populations, ce qui permet de suivre l'évolution de paramètres importants concernant la santé sexuelle et l'exposition au risque de transmission du VIH/sida et d'autres IST. Cet article, tiré du dernier rapport de suivi de la stratégie du VIH/sida en Suisse, présente la situation relative à l'activité sexuelle et aux comportements préventifs chez les jeunes de 17 à 20 ans et compare ces paramètres à divers âges de la vie.

Post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) is the most frequent chronic complication of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) with an estimated prevalence of 30-50%. PTS is a significant cause of disability, especially when complicated by venous ulcers. Therefore, PTS has important socio-economic consequences for both the patient and the health care system. Actually, the efficacy of PTS treatment is very limited; therefore, best treatment remains prevention. Compression therapy, particularly by graduated compression stockings (GCS) has a pivotal role in PTS prophylaxis. Aim of this article is to resume state of the art literature on this subject. Recommendations on PTS prevention have even been reported.

[Quintessence] - L'incidence du mélanome malin augmente rapidement depuis plus de 50 ans. - La Suisse, avec 1700 nouveaux cas diagnostiqués par an, est, avec la Norvège, le pays d'Europe le plus touché par le mélanome. - Des différences régionales sont récemment apparues avec une incidence plus élevée dans les cantons romands. - Les changements observés en Suisse dans l'attitude et le comportement face au soleil sont trop récents et modestes pour influencer l'incidence. - La détection précoce effectuée depuis près de 20 ans a permis d'augmenter la survie et le taux de mélanomes fins sans toutefois altérer l'incidence des lésions épaisses. - La mortalité associée au mélanome malin a récemment diminué, d'abord chez les femmes. L'efficacité de la prévention devrait se confirmer à terme si les efforts entrepris se poursuivent. [Auteurs] [Summary] - The incidence of malignant melanoma has steadily increased in Caucasian populations over the last 50 years. - With some 1700 new cases per year, Switzerland has, with Norway, the highest rate of melanoma in Europe. - Regional differences within Switzerland are emerging, with a higher incidence in western (French-speaking) cantons. - Observed changes in sun protection attitudes and knowledge in the Swiss population have yet to impact on the incidence trend. - Early detection, as pursued since the mid-1980s in Switzerland, has led to a substantial increase in survival and rates of thin melanoma, without major change in rates of thick melanoma. - Mortality from melanoma has recently decreased, initially in women. The effectiveness of prevention campaigns should eventually be confirmed if current efforts persist. [Authors]
