La protection des données personnelles en France

La notion de vie privée, et plus précisément le droit à la protection des renseignements personnels, est reconnue aussi bien dans les textes provinciaux, régionaux, nationaux et internationaux, que dans les politiques mises en place par les sites Web. Il est admis que toutes informations identifiant ou permettant d’identifier une personne peut porter atteinte à sa vie privée, à savoir son nom, prénom, numéro de téléphone, de carte bancaire, de sécurité sociale, ou encore ses adresses électronique et Internet. Cette protection, admise dans le monde réel, doit aussi exister sur les inforoutes, étant entendu que « l ’informatique (…) ne doit porter atteinte ni à l ’identité humaine, ni aux droits de l ’homme, ni à la vie privée, ni aux libertés individuelles ou publiques » (art. 1er de la Loi française dite « Informatique et Libertés » du 6 janvier 1978). Ce principe étant admis, il est pertinent de s’interroger sur les moyens envisagés pour parvenir à le réaliser. Faut-il avoir recours à la réglementation étatique, à l’autoréglementation ou à la corégulation ? Cette dernière notion « n’est pas à proprement parler une nouvelle forme de régulation », mais elle préconise une collaboration entre les acteurs du secteur public et privé. L’idée de partenariat semble retenir l’attention du gouvernement français dans sa mission d’adaptation du cadre législatif à la société de l’information, comme nous le montre le rapport Du droit et des libertés sur l’Internet remis dernièrement au Premier ministre. Par conséquent, cet article a pour objectif de dresser un tableau de la législation française, et de ses multiples rapports, applicables à la protection de la vie privée et, plus particulièrement, aux données personnelles sur le réseau des réseaux. En prenant en considération les solutions étatiques et non étatiques retenues depuis ces deux dernières décennies, nous envisagerons une étude de l’avant-projet de loi du Gouvernement visant à transposer en droit interne la Directive européenne du 24 octobre 1995 relative à la protection des données personnelles.

Eutaleola, a replacement name for the homonym Euteleia (Bryozoa: Pasytheidae)

Eutaleola nom. nov. is proposed as a replacement name for Euteleia Marcus, 1938 (Bryozoa: Cheilostomata), a secondary homonym of Euteleia Raffray, 1904 (Arthropoda: Coleoptera). Eutaleola is a monospecific genus of Pasytheida e, found in warm shallow waters on both sides of the Atlantic and in deeper waters of the eastern Pacific. Brazilian material of Eutaleola evelinae (Marcus, 1938) comb. nov. is described and illustrated.

Sildenafil preserves diastolic relaxation after reduction by L-NAME and increases phosphodiesterase-5 in the intercalated discs of cardiac myocytes and arterioles

OBJECTIVES: We investigated the influence of sildenafil on cardiac contractility and diastolic relaxation and examined the distribution of phosphodiesterase-5 in the hearts of hypertensive rats that were treated with by NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME). METHODS: Male Wistar rats were treated with L-NAME and/or sildenafil for eight weeks. The Langendorff method was used to examine the effects of sildenafil on cardiac contractility and diastolic relaxation. The presence and location of phosphodiesterase-5 and phosphodiesterase-3 were assessed by immunohistochemistry, and cGMP plasma levels were measured by ELISA. RESULTS: In isolated hearts, sildenafil prevented the reduction of diastolic relaxation (dP/dt) that was induced by L-NAME. In addition, phosphodiesterase-5 immunoreactivity was localized in the intercalated discs between the myocardial cells. The staining intensity was reduced by L-NAME, and sildenafil treatment abolished this reduction. Consistent with these results, the plasma levels of cGMP were decreased in the L-NAME-treated rats but not in rats that were treated with L-NAME + sildenafil. CONCLUSION: The sildenafil-induced attenuation of the deleterious hemodynamic and cardiac morphological effects of L-NAME in cardiac myocytes is mediated (at least in part) by the inhibition of phosphodiesterase-5.

On the name of the lepidophagous characid fish Roeboexodon guyanensis (Puyo) (Teleostei: Characiformes: Characidae)

The arguments for the usage of the names Gnathoplax, Roeboexodon, R. geryi, and R. guyanensis are revised. Based on the literature and museum specimens, we recommend that the neotype of Exodon guyanensis should be considered valid; that the genus Gnathoplax should be considered an objective junior synonym of Roeboexodon; and that Roeboexodon geryi should be considered an objective junior synonym of Exodonguyanensis.

New Synonyms in Hortia and Dictyloma (Rutaceae), with Validation of the Name Hortia badinii

This work is a part of a taxonomic revision of the Neotropical genus Hortia (Rutaceae), where three names (H. colambiana Gleason. H. chocoensis Cuatrec., and H. badinii M. Lisboa ex Groppo) are proposed as synonyms of H. brasiliana Vand. ex DC., and the name H. badinii is here validated. Additionally, another name in the Rutaceae. Dictyoloma peruvianum Plana., is proposed as a synonym of D. vandellianum A. Juss. Notes on the type collection of D. vandellianum are provided.

Postural control during prolonged standing in persons with chronic low back pain

Prolonged standing has been associated with the onset of low back pain symptoms in working populations. So far, it is unknown how individuals with chronic low back pain (CLBP) behave during prolonged unconstrained standing (PS). The aim of the present study was to analyze the control of posture by subjects with CLBP during PS in comparison to matched healthy adults. The center of pressure (COP) position of 12 CLBP subjects and 12 matched healthy controls was recorded in prolonged standing (30 min) and quiet stance tasks (60 s) on a force plate. The number and amplitude of COP patterns, the root mean square (RMS), speed, and frequency of COP sway were analyzed. Statistical analyses showed that CLBP subjects produced less Postural changes in the antero-posterior direction with decreased postural sway during the prolonged standing task in comparison to the healthy group. Only CLBP subjects were influenced by the prolonged standing task, as demonstrated by their increased COP RMS, COP speed and COP frequency in the quiet standing trial after the prolonged standing task in comparison to the pre-PS trial. The present study provides additional evidence that individuals with CLBP might have altered sensory-motor function. Their inability to generate responses similar to those of healthy subjects during prolonged standing may contribute to CLBP persistence or an increase risk of recurrent back pain episodes. Moreover, quantification of postural changes during prolonged standing could be useful to identify CLBP subjects prone to postural control deficits. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The life impact of burns: the perspective from burn persons in Brazil during their rehabilitation phase

Method. Participants were 18 years of age or older, who had been discharged from hospitalisation between 6 months and 1 year before the interview, or who underwent reconstructive surgery during the previous year, or who were under outpatient follow-up awaiting reconstructive surgery. Data were collected by means of semi-structured interviews. Results. Thirty-eight of the 44 participants (86.4%) reported some type of changes associated with the burn injury, the treatment, or both, regarding the following aspects: work, leisure, relationships, religious ties, educational activities and habits (smoking, using alcohol and drugs and dressing style). The data showed a statistically significant association between burns on at least one of the upper limbs (with or without hands) and changes in work. Conclusions. Some of the aspects mentioned by the participants, such as work and leisure activities, need to be further researched in order to improve our understanding of the impact that these changes causes in the person`s life.

Cross-sectional and prospective relationships of interleukin-6 and C-reactive protein with physical performance in elderly persons: MacArthur Studies of Successful aging

Although IL-6 has been shown to predict onset of disability in older persons and both IL-6 and CRP are associated with motality risk, these markers of inflammation have only limited associations with physical performance, except for walking measures and grip strength at baseline, and do not predict change in performance 7 years later in a high-functioning subset of older adults.
