Le point sur l'ergométrie en 2012 dans le diagnostic de la maladie coronarienne.

Background In patients presenting with acute cardiac symptoms, abnormal ECG and raised troponin, myocarditis may be suspected after normal angiography. Aims To analyse cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) findings in patients with a provisional diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in whom acute myocarditis was subsequently considered more likely. Methods and results 79 patients referred for CMR following an admission with presumed ACS and raised serum troponin in whom no culprit lesion was detected were studied. 13% had unrecognised myocardial infarction and 6% takotsubo cardiomyopathy. The remainder (81%) were diagnosed with myocarditis. Mean age was 45615 years and 70% were male. Left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) was 58610%; myocardial oedema was detected in 58%. A myocarditic pattern of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) was detected in 92%. Abnormalities were detected more frequently in scans performed within 2 weeks of symptom onset: oedema in 81% vs 11% (p<0.0005), and LGE in 100% vs 76% (p<0.005). In 20 patients with both an acute (<2 weeks) and convalescent scan (>3 weeks), oedema decreased from 84% to 39% (p<0.01) and LGE from 5.6 to 3.0 segments (p¼0.005). Three patients presented with sustained ventricular tachycardia, another died suddenly 4 days after admission and one resuscitated 7 weeks following presentation. All 5 patients had preserved EF. Conclusions Our study emphasises the importance of access to CMR for heart attack centres. If myocarditis is suspected, CMR scanning should be performed within 14 days. Myocarditis should not be regarded as benign, even when EF is preserved.

La régulation des interdépendances entre la forêt et l'eau potable en Suisse : études de cas sur le site de La Côte (projet Alpeau) : les cas des captages des Mouilles et du Montant (canton de Vaud, Suisse)

Ce working paper traite des règles prévues en Suisse pour gérer les usages des forêts et de l'eau souterraine ainsi que leur interdépendance. En deuxième partie, deux études de cas (sur La Côte vaudoise) montrent de quelle manière les règles prédéfinies sont mises en oeuvre afin de protéger les captages d'eau souterraine. En troisième partie, une application du cadre d'analyse des régimes institutionnels des ressources (RIR) permet de discuter en profondeur des mécanismes institutionnels en oeuvre et des enjeux en présence dans le contexte suisse.

Voir et analyser le gouvernement de la foule en liesse. Eléments pour l'étude des rassemblements festifs à l'aide de matériaux sonores et visuels

Seeing and analyzing crowd control : considerations on the study of festive gatherings through the use of audiovisual material. The goal of our research project was to analyze the mechanisms of crowd control on the occasion of the 2008 European Football Championship held in Geneva. In this article, we describe the necessary ambiguity of these occasions for public authorities. On the one hand, they must guarantee that the occasion is sufficiently secure to avoid infractions or incivilities by fans ; on the other hand, they must create the conditions for a festive event of which exuberance is a central part. Police forces aim not to eliminate excesses but to contain them, since some degree of excess is indispensable to ensure the accomplishment of the event. How does the police deal with this complicated situation ? Where is the limit between preventive and repressive measures ? How do they implement management of the public order in the setting of a sports event ? We aim to render visible the practical conditions of the event by making use of video sequences recorded during a match in Geneva. The empirical materials collected will be used to describe three different situations that highlight how quickly fan action can radically switch natures and how complex it is for the police to face a jubilant crowd. In such a context, we show that assuring the smooth progress of the event requires a redefinition of the role of the police, whose interventions must tread a fine line between permissiveness and prohibition.
