Effect of diets high or low in unavailable and slowly digestible carbohydrates on the pattern of 24-h substrate oxidation and feelings of hunger in humans.

BACKGROUND: The pattern of substrate utilization with diets containing a high or a low proportion of unavailable and slowly digestible carbohydrates may constitute an important factor in the control, time course, and onset of hunger in humans. OBJECTIVE: We tested the hypothesis that isoenergetic diets differing only in their content of unavailable carbohydrates would result in different time courses of total, endogenous, and exogenous carbohydrate oxidation rates. DESIGN: Two diets with either a high (H diet) or a low (L diet) content of unavailable carbohydrates were fed to 14 healthy subjects studied during two 24-h periods in a metabolic chamber. Substrate utilization was assessed by whole-body indirect calorimetry. In a subgroup of 8 subjects, endogenous and exogenous carbohydrate oxidation were assessed by prelabeling the body glycogen stores with [(13)C]carbohydrate. Subjective feelings of hunger were estimated with use of visual analogue scales. RESULTS: Total energy expenditure and substrate oxidation did not differ significantly between the 2 diets. However, there was a significant effect of diet (P: = 0.03) on the carbohydrate oxidation pattern: the H diet elicited a lower and delayed rise of postprandial carbohydrate oxidation and was associated with lower hunger feelings than was the L diet. The differences in hunger scores between the 2 diets were significantly associated with the differences in the pattern of carbohydrate oxidation among diets (r = -0.67, P: = 0. 006). Exogenous and endogenous carbohydrate oxidation were not significantly influenced by diet. CONCLUSIONS: The pattern of carbohydrate utilization is involved in the modulation of hunger feelings. The greater suppression of hunger after the H diet than after the L diet may be helpful, at least over the short term, in individuals attempting to better control their food intake.

Evaluación de la regeneración ósea mediante procesado de imagen

La regeneració òssia és un procés estudiat per experts de tot el món. Aquests experts estudien materials capaços d’accelerar el procés de formació de teixit ossi en zones on s’han produït defectes ossis. Després d’un determinat període de temps de l’aplicació dels materials d’estudi en la zona on hi havia una manca de teixit ossi, s’obtenen imatges d’aquesta zona on l’expert mitjançant l’ inspecció visual d’aquestes imatges avalua si l’os s’ha regenerat bé o no. El problema d’aquest mètode d’avaluació es que requereix d’un expert on la valoració d’aquest és subjectiva i difícil de quantificar, el que pot provocar que hi hagi discordança entre experts. Amb la finalitat de aprofitar les imatges en que es basa l’expert per avaluar la capacitat de regeneració òssia dels materials d’estudi es proposa realitzar un anàlisi quantitatiu de la regeneració òssia basat en el processament d’imatge. L’algorisme dissenyat es capaç de classificar imatges de la mandíbula en: imatges de regeneració bona i dolenta mitjançant la parametrització de l’histograma de nivells de grisos de la imatge, solucionant la falta d’objectivitat del mètode d’avaluació de la regeneració òssia i la necessitat d’un expert per realitzar-la.

Dialectique entre facteurs de risque de maltraitance et ressources protectrices : analyse de situations de couples âgés dans le contexte de l'aide et des soins à domicile

Résumé Comment comprendre que certaines situations d'aide et de soins -comportant de nombreux facteurs de risque -présentent de la maltraitance, et d'autres pas ? Cette question est à l'origine de notre travail de thèse de doctorat en psychologie, réalisé en collaboration avec un service d'aide et de soins à domicile du canton de Neuchâtel (Suisse). La problématique des mauvais traitements envers les aînés est te plus souvent abordée dans une perspective positiviste visant, par des études quantitatives ou semi-quantitatives, à identifier ses caractéristiques «objectives ». Si ce type d'approche est pertinent pour cerner les contours du phénomène et élaborer des politiques de prévention, il s'avère insuffisant pour saisir en profondeur les mécanismes qui alimentent le .processus de maltraitance, et par là penser la prévention en amont. La littérature sur les mauvais traitements envers les aînés, les études sur le vécu des situations d'aide et de soins, et les théories systémiques proposent un cadre permettant d'interroger les dimensions relationnelle et subjective de la maltraitance. Par une recherche compréhensive centrée sur l'analyse de quelques situations de couples âgés dans le contexte de l'aide et des soins à domicile, notre travail questionne le rôle de la dynamique relationnelle et du sens donné à la situation d'aide et de soins dans le processus de maltraitance, et plus particulièrement dans le processus de «médiation » des risques. Des entretiens semi-directifs (individuels et de groupe) auprès des acteurs de la triade «conjoint aidé -conjoint aidant -professionnelle référente de situation» nous ont permis de recueillir des données sur les facteurs de déséquilibre et les ressources d'équilibre à l'oeuvre dans ces situations. L'analyse de ces données a mis en évidence l'intervention conjuguée de la dynamique relationnelle et du sens donné à la situation d'aide et de soins - à travers le processus de co-construction du sens dans l'interaction entre les acteurs et le contexte - dans le processus de maltraitance, et plus particulièrement dans la dialectique entre facteurs de risque et ressources protectrices. En révélant l'action médiatrice de la co-construction du sens sur le rapport entre risques et ressources, notre thèse apporte un éclairage inédit sur la maltraitance des personnes âgées et sa prévention. Elle incite à une réinterprétation du phénomène de la maltraitante touchant d'autres populations et ouvre la voie à des pratiques de prévention novatrices.

Use of a renal-specific oral supplement by haemodialysis patients with low protein intake does not increase the need for phosphate binders and may prevent a decline in nutritional status and quality of life.

BACKGROUND: Protein-energy wasting is a frequent and debilitating condition in maintenance dialysis. We randomly tested if an energy-dense, phosphate-restricted, renal-specific oral supplement could maintain adequate nutritional intake and prevent malnutrition in maintenance haemodialysis patients with insufficient intake. METHODS: Eighty-six patients were assigned to a standard care (CTRL) group or were prescribed two 125-ml packs of Renilon 7.5(R) daily for 3 months (SUPP). Dietary intake, serum (S) albumin, prealbumin, protein nitrogen appearance (nPNA), C-reactive protein, subjective global assessment (SGA) and quality of life (QOL) were recorded at baseline and after 3 months. RESULTS: While intention to treat analysis (ITT) did not reveal strong statistically significant changes in dietary intake between groups, per protocol (PP) analysis showed that the SUPP group increased protein (P < 0.01) and energy (P < 0.01) intakes. In contrast, protein and energy intakes further deteriorated in the CTRL group (PP). Although there was no difference in serum albumin and prealbumin changes between groups, in the total population serum albumin and prealbumin changes were positively associated with the increment in protein intake (r = 0.29, P = 0.01 and r = 0.27, P = 0.02, respectively). The SUPP group did not increase phosphate intake, phosphataemia remained unaffected, and the use of phosphate binders remained stable or decreased. The SUPP group exhibited improved SGA and QOL (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: This study shows that providing maintenance haemodialysis patients with insufficient intake with a renal-specific oral supplement may prevent deterioration in nutritional indices and QOL without increasing the need for phosphate binders.

An exploratory study on facial emotion recognition capacity in beginning Alzheimer's disease.

Objective: It was the aim of this study to investigate facial emotion recognition (FER) in the elderly with cognitive impairment. Method: Twelve patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and 12 healthy control subjects were asked to name dynamic or static pictures of basic facial emotions using the Multimodal Emotion Recognition Test and to assess the degree of their difficulty in the recognition task, while their electrodermal conductance was registered as an unconscious processing measure. Results: AD patients had lower objective recognition performances for disgust and fear, but only disgust was accompanied by decreased subjective FER in AD patients. The electrodermal response was similar in all groups. No significant effect of dynamic versus static emotion presentation on FER was found. Conclusion: Selective impairment in recognizing facial expressions of disgust and fear may indicate a nonlinear decline in FER capacity with increasing cognitive impairment and result from progressive though specific damage to neural structures engaged in emotional processing and facial emotion identification. Although our results suggest unchanged unconscious FER processing with increasing cognitive impairment, further investigations on unconscious FER and self-awareness of FER capacity in neurodegenerative disorders are required.

The de facto independence of regulatory agencies and its consequences for policy making and regulatory outcomes

This dissertation focuses on the practice of regulatory governance, throughout the study of the functioning of formally independent regulatory agencies (IRAs), with special attention to their de facto independence. The research goals are grounded on a "neo-positivist" (or "reconstructed positivist") position (Hawkesworth 1992; Radaelli 2000b; Sabatier 2000). This perspective starts from the ontological assumption that even if subjective perceptions are constitutive elements of political phenomena, a real world exists beyond any social construction and can, however imperfectly, become the object of scientific inquiry. Epistemologically, it follows that hypothetical-deductive theories with explanatory aims can be tested by employing a proper methodology and set of analytical techniques. It is thus possible to make scientific inferences and general conclusions to a certain extent, according to a Bayesian conception of knowledge, in order to update the prior scientific beliefs in the truth of the related hypotheses (Howson 1998), while acknowledging the fact that the conditions of truth are at least partially subjective and historically determined (Foucault 1988; Kuhn 1970). At the same time, a sceptical position is adopted towards the supposed disjunction between facts and values and the possibility of discovering abstract universal laws in social science. It has been observed that the current version of capitalism corresponds to the golden age of regulation, and that since the 1980s no government activity in OECD countries has grown faster than regulatory functions (Jacobs 1999). Following an apparent paradox, the ongoing dynamics of liberalisation, privatisation, decartelisation, internationalisation, and regional integration hardly led to the crumbling of the state, but instead promoted a wave of regulatory growth in the face of new risks and new opportunities (Vogel 1996). Accordingly, a new order of regulatory capitalism is rising, implying a new division of labour between state and society and entailing the expansion and intensification of regulation (Levi-Faur 2005). The previous order, relying on public ownership and public intervention and/or on sectoral self-regulation by private actors, is being replaced by a more formalised, expert-based, open, and independently regulated model of governance. Independent regulation agencies (IRAs), that is, formally independent administrative agencies with regulatory powers that benefit from public authority delegated from political decision makers, represent the main institutional feature of regulatory governance (Gilardi 2008). IRAs constitute a relatively new technology of regulation in western Europe, at least for certain domains, but they are increasingly widespread across countries and sectors. For instance, independent regulators have been set up for regulating very diverse issues, such as general competition, banking and finance, telecommunications, civil aviation, railway services, food safety, the pharmaceutical industry, electricity, environmental protection, and personal data privacy. Two attributes of IRAs deserve a special mention. On the one hand, they are formally separated from democratic institutions and elected politicians, thus raising normative and empirical concerns about their accountability and legitimacy. On the other hand, some hard questions about their role as political actors are still unaddressed, though, together with regulatory competencies, IRAs often accumulate executive, (quasi-)legislative, and adjudicatory functions, as well as about their performance.

Individual versus standard quality of life assessment in a phase II clinical trial in mesothelioma patients: feasibility and responsiveness to clinical changes.

BACKGROUND: In patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma undergoing a multimodality therapy, treatment toxicity may outweigh the benefit of progression-free survival. The subjective experience across different treatment phases is an important clinical outcome. This study compares a standard with an individual quality of life (QoL) measure used in a multi-center phase II trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Sixty-one patients with stage I-III technically operable pleural mesothelioma were treated with preoperative chemotherapy, followed by pleuropneumonectomy and subsequent radiotherapy. QoL was assessed at baseline, at day 1 of cycle 3, and 1, 3 and 6 months post-surgery by using the Rotterdam Symptom Checklist (RSCL) and the Schedule for the Evaluation of Quality of Life-Direct Weighting (SEIQoL-DW), a measure that is based on five individually nominated and weighted QoL-domains. RESULTS: Completion rates were 98% (RSCL) and 92% (SEIQoL) at baseline and 98%/89% at cycle 3, respectively. Of the operated patients (N=45) RSCL and SEIQoL were available from 86%/72%, 93%/74%, and 94%/76% at months 1, 3, and 6 post-surgery. Average assessment time for the SEIQoL was 24min compared to 8min needed for the RSCL. Median changes from baseline indicate that both RSCL QoL overall score and SEIQoL index remained stable during chemotherapy with a clinically significant deterioration (change>or=8 points) 1 month after surgery (median change of -66 and -14 for RSCL and SEIQoL, respectively). RSCL QoL overall scores improved thereafter, but remained beneath baseline level until 6 months after surgery. SEIQoL scores improved to baseline-level at month 3 after surgery, but worsened again at month 6. RSCL QoL overall score and SEIQoL index were moderately correlated at baseline (r=.30; p<or=.05) and at 6-month follow-up (r=.42; p<or=.05) but not at the other time points. CONCLUSION: The SEIQoL assessment seems to be feasible within a phase II clinical trial, but may require more effort from staff. More distinctive QoL changes in accordance with clinical changes were measured with the RSCL. Our findings suggest that the two measures are not interchangeable: the RSCL is to favor when mainly information related to the course of disease- and treatment is of interest.

Evaluation of the 3D symmetry of the knees when walking using na ambulatory inertia system: results 14 months after ACL Plasty.

Purpose of the study: Reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) controls laxity but does not enable restoration of strictly normal 3D kinematics. The purpose of this study was to compare the kinematics of the pathological knee with that of the healthy knee after ACL plasty. This study applied a new ambulatory system using miniature captors. Material and method: Five patients with an isolated injury of the ACL participated in this study. The patients were assessed after injury (T1), at five months (T2), and at 14 months (T3) after surgery. The assessment included laxity (KT-1000), the IKDC score and the Lysholm score. The 3D angles of the knees were measured when walking 30 m on flat ground using a system composed of to small inertia units (3D accelerometer and 3D gyroscope) and a portable recorder. Functional settings were optimised and validating to ensure easy precise measurement of the 3D angles. Symmetry of the two knees was quantified using a symmetry index (SI) (difference in amplitude normalised in relation to mean amplitude) and the correlation coefficient CC. Results: Clinical indicators improved during the follow-up (IKDC T1: 3C, 2C; T2: 5B; T3: 2A, 3B; subjective IKD: 53-95; Lysholm 67-96). Mean laxity improved from 8.6m to 2.5 mm. The gait analysis showed increased symmetry in terms of amplitude for flexion-extension (SI: −17% at T1, −1% at T2, 1% at T3), and an increase in symmetry in terms of the rotation signature (CC: 0.16 at T1, 0.99 at T2, 0.99 at T3). There was no trend to varus-valgus. Discussion: This study demonstrates the clinical application of the new ambulatory system for measuring 3D angles of the knee joint. Joint symmetry increased after ACL plasty but still showed some perturbation at 14 months. The results observed here are in agreement with the literature. Other patients and other types of gait are being analysed. Conclusion: This portable system allows gait analysis outside the laboratory, before and after ACL injury. It is very useful for follow-up after surgery.

Respiratory muscle training enhances maximal minute ventilation and forced vital capacity in adolescent athletes.

Introduction. Respiratory difficulties in athletes are common, especially in adolescents, even in the absence of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction. Immaturity of the respiratory muscles coupling at high respiratory rates could be a potential mechanism. Whether respiratory muscle training (RMT) can positively influence it is yet unknown. Goal. We investigate the effects of RMT on ventilation and performance parameters in adolescent athletes and hypothesize that RMT will enhance respiratory capacity. Methods. 12 healthy subjects (8 male, 4 female, 17±0.5 years) from a sports/study high school class, competitively involved in various sports (minimum of 10 hours per week) underwent respiratory function testing, maximal minute ventilation (MMV) measurements and a maximal treadmill incremental test with VO2max and ventilatory thresholds (VT1 and VT2) determination. They then underwent one month of RMT (4 times/week) using a eucapnic hyperventilation device, with an incremental training program. The same tests were repeated after RMT. Results. Subjects completed 14.8 sessions of RMT, with an increase in total ventilation per session of 211±29% during training. Borg scale evaluation of the RMT session was unchanged or reduced in all subjects, despite an increase in total respiratory work. No changes (p>0.05) were observed pre/post RMT in VO2max (53.4±7.5 vs 51.6±7.7 ml/kg/min), VT2 (14.4±1.4 vs 14.0±1.1 km/h) or Speed max at end of test (16.1±1.7 vs 15.8±1.7 km/h). MVV increased by 9.2% (176.7±36.9 vs 192.9±32.6 l/min, p<0.001) and FVC by 3.3% (6.70±0.75 vs 4.85±0.76 litres, p<0.05). Subjective evaluation of respiratory sensations during exercise and daily living were also improved. Conclusions. RMT improves MMV and FVC in adolescent athletes, along with important subjective respiratory benefits, although no changes are seen in treadmill maximal performance tests and VO2max measurements. RMT can be easily performed in adolescent without side effects, with a potential for improvement in training capacity and overall well-being.

Characterization of pupil responses to blue and red light stimuli in autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa due to NR2E3 mutation.

PURPOSE: We characterized the pupil responses that reflect rod, cone, and melanopsin function in a genetically homogeneous cohort of patients with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (adRP). METHODS: Nine patients with Gly56Arg mutation of the NR2E3 gene and 12 control subjects were studied. Pupil and subjective visual responses to red and blue light flashes over a 7 log-unit range of intensities were recorded under dark and light adaptation. The pupil responses were plotted against stimulus intensity to obtain red-light and blue-light response curves. RESULTS: In the dark-adapted blue-light stimulus condition, patients showed significantly higher threshold intensities for visual perception and for a pupil response compared to controls (P = 0.02 and P = 0.006, respectively). The rod-dependent, blue-light pupil responses decreased with disease progression. In contrast, the cone-dependent pupil responses (light-adapted red-light stimulus condition) did not differ between patients and controls. The difference in the retinal sensitivity to blue and red stimuli was the most sensitive parameter to detect photoreceptor dysfunction. Unexpectedly, the melanopsin-mediated pupil response was decreased in patients (P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: Pupil responses of patients with NR2E3-associated adRP demonstrated reduced retinal sensitivity to dim blue light under dark adaptation, presumably reflecting decreased rod function. Rod-dependent pupil responses were quantifiable in all patients, including those with non-recordable scotopic electroretinogram, and correlated with the extent of clinical disease. Thus, the chromatic pupil light reflex can be used to monitor photoreceptor degeneration over a larger range of disease progression compared to standard electrophysiology.

Spin-labeling coronary MR angiography with steady-state free precession and radial k-space sampling: initial results in healthy volunteers.

The purpose of this study was to prospectively compare free-breathing navigator-gated cardiac-triggered three-dimensional steady-state free precession (SSFP) spin-labeling coronary magnetic resonance (MR) angiography performed by using Cartesian k-space sampling with that performed by using radial k-space sampling. A new dedicated placement of the two-dimensional selective labeling pulse and an individually adjusted labeling delay time approved by the institutional review board were used. In 14 volunteers (eight men, six women; mean age, 28.8 years) who gave informed consent, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), vessel sharpness, vessel length, and subjective image quality were investigated. Differences between groups were analyzed with nonparametric tests (Wilcoxon, Pearson chi2). Radial imaging, as compared with Cartesian imaging, resulted in a significant reduction in the severity of motion artifacts, as well as an increase in SNR (26.9 vs 12.0, P < .05) in the coronary arteries and CNR (23.1 vs 8.8, P < .05) between the coronary arteries and the myocardium. A tendency toward improved vessel sharpness and vessel length was also found with radial imaging. Radial SSFP imaging is a promising technique for spin-labeling coronary MR angiography.

IPH Submission to the Central Statistics Office (ROI)

The Institute of Public Health in Ireland (IPH) is an all-island body which aims to improve health in Ireland, by working to combat health inequalities and influence public policies in favour of health. IPH promotes co-operation in research, training, information and policy in order to contribute to policies which tackle inequalities in health. Over the past ten years IPH has worked closely with the Department of Health and Children and the Department of Health, Social Services and Public Safety in Northern Ireland to build capacity for public health across the island of Ireland. Key pointsIPH welcomes the opportunity to contribute to the questionnaire content for the 2011 Census of Population. We are particularly interested in how information collected by the Census can contribute to improved health and in this regard are broadly supportive of the questions addressing health in the current Census questionnaire. We feel that an additional question that assesses self-perceived health would be extremely useful as, while this is a subjective assessment, it has been shown to correlate well with actual health status and use of health services.

Multisensory mechanisms in temporo-parietal cortex support self-location and first-person perspective.

Self-consciousness has mostly been approached by philosophical enquiry and not by empirical neuroscientific study, leading to an overabundance of diverging theories and an absence of data-driven theories. Using robotic technology, we achieved specific bodily conflicts and induced predictable changes in a fundamental aspect of self-consciousness by altering where healthy subjects experienced themselves to be (self-location). Functional magnetic resonance imaging revealed that temporo-parietal junction (TPJ) activity reflected experimental changes in self-location that also depended on the first-person perspective due to visuo-tactile and visuo-vestibular conflicts. Moreover, in a large lesion analysis study of neurological patients with a well-defined state of abnormal self-location, brain damage was also localized at TPJ, providing causal evidence that TPJ encodes self-location. Our findings reveal that multisensory integration at the TPJ reflects one of the most fundamental subjective feelings of humans: the feeling of being an entity localized at a position in space and perceiving the world from this position and perspective.

Predictors of HIV-protection behaviour in HIV-positive men who have sex with casual male partners: a test of the explanatory power of an extended Information-Motivation-Behavioural Skills model.

This prospective study applies an extended Information-Motivation-Behavioural Skills (IMB) model to establish predictors of HIV-protection behaviour among HIV-positive men who have sex with men (MSM) during sex with casual partners. Data have been collected from anonymous, self-administered questionnaires and analysed by using descriptive and backward elimination regression analyses. In a sample of 165 HIV-positive MSM, 82 participants between the ages of 23 and 78 (M=46.4, SD=9.0) had sex with casual partners during the three-month period under investigation. About 62% (n=51) have always used a condom when having sex with casual partners. From the original IMB model, only subjective norm predicted condom use. More important predictors that increased condom use were low consumption of psychotropics, high satisfaction with sexuality, numerous changes in sexual behaviour after diagnosis, low social support from friends, alcohol use before sex and habitualised condom use with casual partner(s). The explanatory power of the calculated regression model was 49% (p<0.001). The study reveals the importance of personal and social resources and of routines for condom use, and provides information for the research-based conceptualisation of prevention offers addressing especially people living with HIV ("positive prevention").

Evaluation de l'efficacité d'un entraînement métacognitif chez des adolescents souffrant de psychose

Contexte :¦La formation et le maintien d'idées délirantes et des hallucinations, qui sont des symptômes clé de la psychose, s'expliquent en partie par la présence de biais cognitifs. La faisabilité, l'adhérence au traitement, l'utilité subjective et également l'efficacité d'un entraînement métacognitif (EMC) permettant de corriger ces biais cognitifs ont été démontrées chez des adultes schizophrènes. Par contre, aucune étude ne s'est intéressée à ces aspects dans une population adolescente atteinte de psychose.¦Objectifs : Déterminer la faisabilité d'un EMC et son effet bénéfique présumé sur les symptômes psychotiques et dépressifs, le fonctionnement social et l'estime de soi chez des adolescents psychotiques.¦Méthode :¦La présente étude porte sur 5 adolescents fréquentant le Centre Thérapeutique de Jour pour Adolescents de Lausanne (CTJA), âgés de 16 à 18 ans, souffrant de psychose. L'intervention effectuée est un EMC correspondant à 2x8 modules en groupe, d'une durée de 45 à 60 minutes, à une fréquence d'une fois par semaine. La mesure de l'efficacité des modules emploie l'échelle Positive And Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS), l'Echelle Globale de Fonctionnement Social (SOFAS), l'estime de soi de Rosenberg, l'échelle de dépression de Calgary et le Health of Nation Outcome Scale for Children and Adolescent (HoNOSCA). Le groupe contrôle (GC) est formé de 9 adolescents de 13 à 17 ans du CTJA atteints de psychose et ayant suivi un programme de remédiation cognitive sans participation à l'EMC.¦Résultats :¦L'EMC est praticable sur des adolescents atteints de psychose. L'adhérence est mitigée et mérite une souplesse dans l'adaptation du calendrier des séances selon la disponibilité des participants. L'EMC possède globalement la même efficacité que la remédiation cognitive dans le domaine des symptômes psychotiques et dépressifs, le fonctionnement social et l'estime de soi.¦Conclusions :¦L'EMC représente une alternative intéressante et/ou un bon complément de traitement, permettant de réduire les symptômes psychotiques et dépressifs et d'améliorer le fonctionnement social et l'estime de soi. De futures études à plus large échelle devraient être entreprises afin de confirmer cette conclusion et étoffer les données spécifiques à cette population.
