Comment faciliter la consommation de protéines après un bypass gastrique [How to facilitate protein consumption after gastric bypass?].

After a gastric bypass, covering protein needs is impossible. This deficit is co-responsible for several postoperative complications so it is essential to inform, prepare and train every patient candidate for such an intervention. To increase protein intake, it is important to work on two different aspects: on the one hand on food sources, targeting the richest food and, on the other hand, on food tolerance so that these foods can be consumed. In fact, gastric bypass induces not only a reduction in gastric volume, but also reduces the passage from the stomach to the intestine. Changes in feeding behavior are much needed to improve food tolerance.

Comment mettre en application des recommandations de pratique clinique? L'exemple des dyslipidémies [How to apply clinical guidelines in medical practice? The example of dyslipidemia]

How to summarize and facilitate the implementation of national and international guidelines in clinical practice? To adress these issues, we present a summary of dyslipidemia management for general practitioners. To achieve these aims, we adopted strategies based on international and national guidelines and focused on clinical applications which implies to choose specific options, such as the use of cardiovascular risk score and specific therapies as first options.

JULIDE: a software tool for 3D reconstruction and statistical analysis of autoradiographic mouse brain sections.

In this article we introduce JULIDE, a software toolkit developed to perform the 3D reconstruction, intensity normalization, volume standardization by 3D image registration and voxel-wise statistical analysis of autoradiographs of mouse brain sections. This software tool has been developed in the open-source ITK software framework and is freely available under a GPL license. The article presents the complete image processing chain from raw data acquisition to 3D statistical group analysis. Results of the group comparison in the context of a study on spatial learning are shown as an illustration of the data that can be obtained with this tool.
