Ce travail de recherche évalue dans quelle mesure le pharmacien, en collaboration avec les autres professionnels de soins, peut soutenir le patient VIH-positif dans sa prise médicamenteuse en associant de façon originale l'entretien motivationnel et les piluliers électroniques. Les résultats montrent que l'adhésion thérapeutique peut être maintenue à un niveau élevé même dans un groupe de patients à risque de non-adhésion. [Auteurs]

Cette étude a été menée par l'Unité d'évaluation de programmes de prévention de l'Institut de médecine sociale et préventive (IUMSP) de Lausanne. Elle s'inscrit dans le cadre de l'évaluation globale de la stratégie de prévention du VIH/sida pour laquelle l'IUMSP a reçu mandat de l'Office fédéral de la santé publique. Le programme national "VIH et sida : Programme national de 1999 à 2003" a été préparé en 1998 par l'OFSP en collaboration avec des experts et publié en février 1999. Il fait suite au manuel "Prévention du VIH en Suisse : buts, stratégies, mesures" publié en 1993 et couvre la période de 1999 à 2003. Les 14 objectifs qu'il définit, avec leurs jalons, sont répartis dans cinq grands domaines à savoir: promotion de la santé, prévention, thérapie et diagnostic, conseil et soutien, savoir et transfert des compétences. Afin d'en planifier la mise en oeuvre, l'OFSP a organisé 14 plates-formes régionales en août et septembre 1999 qui ont fait l'objet d'un rapport publié en janvier 2000. Les plates-formes ont été suivies d'une "Conférence intercantonale VIH/sida" le 8 septembre 2000 à Berne, organisée conjointement par l'Office fédéral de la santé publique (OFSP)/Section Sida et l'Aide Suisse contre le Sida (ASS), dont le thème général était "Transfert dans la lutte contre le VIH/sida". Faisant suite à la première phase d'évaluation qui, elle, a porté sur l'état des activités de lutte contre le VIH/sida dans les cantons, la deuxième phase de l'évaluation fait le point sur la mise en oeuvre du programme national 1999-2003 au niveau national et dans les cinq cantons pour la période 2000-2001 et porte sur l'implantation du programme national. Y sont analysés le développement des activités dans tous les domaines, la pertinence des objectifs et jalons, les éléments garantissant la pérennité et la qualité des interventions, et le développement des collaborations à différents niveaux.

Drinking habits are socially patterned and social networks influence individuals' drinking behaviors. Previous studies have focused primarily upon the influence from family members to drink less. Those studies that have focused upon peer influence have been largely confined to social norms among adolescent and college-age drinkers. By contrast, based in adult populations, this article examines exhortations from friends not only to reduce alcohol consumption but also to increase it. Survey data in 15 countries that participate in the Gender, Alcohol and Culture: An International Study project (GENACIS) were used to test whether there were country and gender differences concerning the influence to drink less or to drink more by friends and examine if this was affected by the drinking behavior. The findings revealed that those influenced to drink less had more heavy episodic drinking (HED) occasions than those who did not report such influence. By contrast, influence to drink more, originating mainly from same-sex friends, may be more the result of social situations that encourage all drinkers, regardless of their frequency of HED occasions. At the country level, influence to drink less for both sexes decreased with the proportion of drinkers in a country. Similarly, influence to drink less for both sexes also decreased in countries where gender roles were more egalitarian. Thus, in countries where alcohol use is more widespread and fewer differences are observed between male and female gender role expectations, fewer people were influenced to drink less. These findings have implications for social and behavioral strategies designed to reduce alcohol-related harm across a wide range of cultures.

Background: Declining physical activity is associated with a rising burden of global disease. There is little evidence about effective ways to increase adherence to physical activity. Therefore, interventions are needed that produce sustained increases in adherence to physical activity and are cost-effective. The purpose is to assess the effectiveness of a primary care physical activity intervention in increasing adherence to physical activity in the general population seen in primary care. Method and design: Randomized controlled trial with systematic random sampling. A total of 424 subjects of both sexes will participate; all will be over the age of 18 with a low level of physical activity (according to the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, IPAQ), self-employed and from 9 Primary Healthcare Centres (PHC). They will volunteer to participate in a physical activity programme during 3 months (24 sessions; 2 sessions a week, 60 minutes per session). Participants from each PHC will be randomly allocated to an intervention (IG) and control group (CG). The following parameters will be assessed pre and post intervention in both groups: (1) health-related quality of life (SF-12), (2) physical activity stage of change (Prochaska's stages of change), (3) level of physical activity (IPAQ-short version), (4) change in perception of health (vignettes from the Cooperative World Organization of National Colleges, Academies, and Academic Associations of Family Physicians, COOP/WONCA), (5) level of social support for the physical activity practice (Social Support for Physical Activity Scale, SSPAS), and (6) control based on analysis (HDL, LDL and glycated haemoglobin).Participants' frequency of visits to the PHC will be registered over the six months before and after the programme. There will be a follow up in a face to face interview three, six and twelve months after the programme, with the reduced version of IPAQ, SF-12, SSPAS, and Prochaska's stages. Discussion: The pilot study showed the effectiveness of an enhanced low-cost, evidence-based intervention in increased physical activity and improved social support. If successful in demonstrating long-term improvements, this randomised controlled trial will be the first sustainable physical activity intervention based in primary care in our country to demonstrate longterm adherence to physical activity. Trial Registration: A service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health. Developed by the National Library of Medicine. ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT00714831.

Lancé en 1963 par le président Ngô Ðình Diệm, le programme chiêu hồi visait à susciter des défections dans les rangs Viêt cộng. Sa première phase, dite de persuasion, consistait en un intense effort de propagande réalisé par le largage de milliards de tracts, la diffusion de messages par haut-parleur aérien, l'affichage de banderoles ou de posters et plus généralement l'utilisation de tous les canaux de communication possibles. S'y ajoutait le déploiement d'unités de propagande armées, composées d'anciens Viêt cộng, chargées de plus particulièrement cibler les groupes prioritairement visés par les messages du programme. Le programme chiêu hồi fut la plus massive des opérations psychologiques conduites lors de la guerre du Vietnam et sans doute la plus importante des actions de guerre psychologique de l'histoire.

The final tournament of the UEFA European Football Championship is one of the top sporting events in the world, and a high-profile event of this kind requires a well-planned and well-executed anti-doping programme to ensure the integrity of results in the competition. UEFA EURO 2012 presented a unique logistical challenge, with the tournament spread across two countries, both covering a large geographical area. This paper discusses the planning and delivery of both the pre tournament out-of-competition (OOC) testing programme and the in-competition (IC) programme, as well as reviewing the activities of doping control officers (DCOs), the whereabouts programme and assessing the sample collection and transport process. The analytical approach applied is also discussed, along with an overview of the distribution of T/E ratios and blood parameters.
