Les proches dans le Code civil

Le législateur du Code civil a introduit le terme « proche » dans de nombreuses dispositions, mais n'en propose aucune définition, ce qui laisse une grande marge de manoeuvre pour son interprétation et son application. La signification et la portée du terme ne seront ainsi pas les mêmes selon le domaine juridique et la situation de fait analysés. Face à cette grande diversité d'usage du terme, l'auteure de la contribution propose de l'appréhender selon les domaines et les buts dans lesquels il est utilisé par le législateur afin de réussir à tracer les contours des différents cercles de proches envisageables.

Response Prediction in Chronic Hepatitis C by Assessment of IP-10 and IL28B-Related Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms.

BACKGROUND: High baseline levels of IP-10 predict a slower first phase decline in HCV RNA and a poor outcome following interferon/ribavirin therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis C. Several recent studies report that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) adjacent to IL28B predict spontaneous resolution of HCV infection and outcome of treatment among HCV genotype 1 infected patients. METHODS AND FINDINGS: In the present study, we correlated the occurrence of variants at three such SNPs (rs12979860, rs12980275, and rs8099917) with pretreatment plasma IP-10 and HCV RNA throughout therapy within a phase III treatment trial (HCV-DITTO) involving 253 Caucasian patients. The favorable SNP variants (CC, AA, and TT, respectively) were associated with lower baseline IP-10 (P = 0.02, P = 0.01, P = 0.04) and were less common among HCV genotype 1 infected patients than genotype 2/3 (P<0.0001, P<0.0001, and P = 0.01). Patients carrying favorable SNP genotypes had higher baseline viral load than those carrying unfavorable variants (P = 0.0013, P = 0.029, P = 0.0004 respectively). Among HCV genotype 1 infected carriers of the favorable C, A, or T alleles, IP-10 below 150 pg/mL significantly predicted a more pronounced reduction of HCV RNA from day 0 to 4 (first phase decline), which translated into increased rates of RVR (62%, 53%, and 39%) and SVR (85%, 76%, and 75% respectively) among homozygous carriers with baseline IP-10 below 150 pg/mL. In multivariate analyses of genotype 1-infected patients, baseline IP-10 and C genotype at rs12979860 independently predicted the first phase viral decline and RVR, which in turn independently predicted SVR. CONCLUSIONS: Concomitant assessment of pretreatment IP-10 and IL28B-related SNPs augments the prediction of the first phase decline in HCV RNA, RVR, and final therapeutic outcome.

Quelques conséquences de l'application du nouveau code pénal suisse sur la psychiatrie légale [Some consequences of the application of the new Swiss penal code on legal psychiatry]

The new text of the Swiss penal code, which entered into effect at the beginning of 2007, has many incidences on the practice of the psychiatrists realizing expertises in the penal field or engaged in the application of legal measures imposing a treatment. The most notable consequences of this text are, on the one hand, a new definition of the concept of penal irresponsibility which is not necessarily any more related to a psychiatric diagnosis and, on the other hand, a new definition of legal constraints that justice can take to prevent new punishable acts and which appreciably modifies the place of the psychiatrists in the questions binding psychiatric care and social control.

Implantació de la telefonia IP en un entorn empresarial

L’objectiu d’aquest treball és dissenyar un model general d’un sistema de telefonia IP per a una petita o mitjana empresa. El model ha de tenir en compteles característiques actuals de la xarxa de l’empresa i proposar una solució adient. Un altre requeriment és la utilització de software de lliure distribució, des del sistema operatiu fins al relatiu a VoIP, i més concretament, el software de centraleta VoIP Asterisk sobre GNU/Linux.En primer lloc s’estudiaran els conceptes bàsics de la telefonia IP (protocols,codificadors, servidors, etc.). En segon lloc, s’analitzaran els diferents escenarispossibles i es proposaran solucions adequades per cadascun d’ells. Després s’estudiarà el funcionament de les centraletes Asterisk i la seva configuració encada escenari. Finalment s’aplicarà aquest estudi a una empresa concreta
