The authors examined the associations of social support with socioeconomic status (SES) and with mortality, as well as how SES differences in social support might account for SES differences in mortality. Analyses were based on 9,333 participants from the British Whitehall II Study cohort, a longitudinal cohort established in 1985 among London-based civil servants who were 35-55 years of age at baseline. SES was assessed using participant's employment grades at baseline. Social support was assessed 3 times in the 24.4-year period during which participants were monitored for death. In men, marital status, and to a lesser extent network score (but not low perceived support or high negative aspects of close relationships), predicted both all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Measures of social support were not associated with cancer mortality. Men in the lowest SES category had an increased risk of death compared with those in the highest category (for all-cause mortality, hazard ratio = 1.59, 95% confidence interval: 1.21, 2.08; for cardiovascular mortality, hazard ratio = 2.48, 95% confidence interval: 1.55, 3.92). Network score and marital status combined explained 27% (95% confidence interval: 14, 43) and 29% (95% confidence interval: 17, 52) of the associations between SES and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, respectively. In women, there was no consistent association between social support indicators and mortality. The present study suggests that in men, social isolation is not only an important risk factor for mortality but is also likely to contribute to differences in mortality by SES.

Cette thèse compare et analyse les affirmations de plus de 300 publications d'Eglises européennes sur la crise de l'emploi des années 1975-1985. Il en ressort des approches concernant tantôt l'évolution de la situation économique, tantôt la place de l'emploi dans la vie humaine, tantôt les conflits sociaux autour des emplois. Les différents types de discours éthiques prononcés sont valorisés, chacun dans son espace; certains points font l'objet de remarques critiques. Ces considérations sont complétées de perspectives tirées des discours bibliques correspondants et portant sur les enjeux des débats éthiques actuels sur la place du travail dans l'économie et la société.

The two objectives of this study, based on a sample of 1398 Swiss army conscripts born in 1966 who participated in a first study in 1985, were to measure the prevalence of low back pain (LBP) at age 26 years and its incidence between 19 and 26 years and to analyze the relationship between LBP and occupational, nonoccupational, or physical risk factors. The lifetime prevalence of LBP at age 26 was 69.1% and the incidence of LBP between 19 and 26, 44.7%. A history of LBP or a pathological physical examination result at age 19 did not predict the prevalence or the incidence at age 26. Standing, twisting, vibration, and heavy work were significantly associated with chronic LBP and/or the 1-year prevalence of LBP at age 26 (P<0.05). The evolution of sport and leisure-time activities from age 19 to 26 did not differ between people with or without LBP. The ergonomic organization of the workplace should represent a major element of future strategies to prevent LBP.

Sur mandat du Conseil d'Etat valaisan, l'Institut universitaire de médecine sociale et préventive a réalisé une étude sur les patients hospitalisés dans les établissements de soins valaisans en automne 1985. L'objectif de cette étude, organisée sous forme d'un recensement, était principalement d'étudier l'adéquation du lieu d'hospitalisation par rapport à l'état du patient; cette question a été directement posée au médecin traitant. Plusieurs autres renseignements démographiques et médicaux ont été relevés lors de cette enquête. Celle-ci a porté sur 26 établissements fournissant des prestations de soins aigus, chroniques et d'hébergement (lits d'infirmerie des homes); il s'agissait des soins somatiques aussi bien que psychiatriques. Cela représente un total de 2771 lits... [Auteurs]

L'objet de cette étude est d'estimer la prévalence des douleurs du racis chez les jeunes hommes convoqués pour la première fois à leur recrutement en Suisse romande en 1985. On s'intéresse donc aux douleurs présentes au moment du recrutement, mais également aux douleurs déjà révolues, puisqu'on sait qu'il s'agit d'une affection qui récidive facilement. Ceci est donc considéré comme un facteur de risque. D'autres facteurs de risque tels que le sport et la profession exercée seront analysés afin d'estimer leur influence sur la prévalence des cervico-dorso-lombalgies. [Auteur, p. 7]

The influence of social factors on birthweight and fetal and infant mortality was investigated in the Swiss birth cohort from 1979-85 (N = 519,933). The proportion of newborns with low-birthweight (less than 2500 g) was higher in lower social classes. Stillbirth-rate, neonatal and postneonatal mortality were higher in lower social classes, too. When controlling for birthweight, the increase in mortality in the lower social classes became somewhat less striking. Marked social differences in perinatal mortality were found in the newborns with normal weight, whereas almost no difference could be detected in the low-birthweight-group.

Le dosage du plomb sanguin a été inclus dans l'enquête MONICA (MONItoring of trends and determinants in CArdiovascular disease) sur un échantillon représentatif de la population des cantons de Fribourg et de Vaud. Les résultats sont présentés en trois sections: 1) Distribution de la plombémie en fonction de quelques variables spécifiques: variables socio-démographiques, facteurs de risque classiques des maladies cardio-vasculaires, variables sur certaines habitudes alimentaires; 2) Analyse discriminante des personnes dans le quartile supérieur de la distribution de la plombémie; 3) Description plus détaillée des 18 cas de plombémie supérieure à 1.5 micromoles/l.
