Abstract Background Under-diagnosis and under-treatment of childhood asthma were investigated in France using data collected during the 6 Cities Study, the French contribution to the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood. Methods 7,781 schoolchildren ...

International audience; We analyze the response of a type II superconducting wire to an external magnetic field parallel to it in the framework of Ginzburg-Landau theory. We focus on the surface superconductivity regime of applied field between the second and third crit...

The gamma-decay properties of 24Mg excited states are investigated in the inverse reaction 24Mg+12C at E(24Mg) = 130 MeV. At this energy the direct inelastic scattering populates a 24Mg* energy region where 12C+12C breakup resonances can occur. Very exclusive data were ...

International audience; The present paper deals with the Taylor-Couette flow of shear-thinning fluids. It focuses on the first principles understanding the influence of the viscosity stratification and the nonlinear variation of the effective viscosity µ with the shear ...

The purpose of this paper is to define a low cycle fatigue criterion in order to predict the failure of engineering structures. The major problem in defining a predictive fatigue criterion is that it should be applicable for structures submitted to complex multiaxial th...

Highlights • Water-level is a key parameter for the operation of water infrastructure. • A novel open-source water level monitoring system is proposed, costing under $100 AUD. • The system can be used in different configurations with a maximum absolute er...

International audience; Powdered roots of iboga (Tabernanthe iboga) contain ibogaine, an alkaloid that has been used to treat addictions. We report the case of a 30-year-old woman who died after ingesting a powder labeled as Tabernanthe iboga she had bought online. Anal...

International audience; Freshwater fisheries are central to food security in China and this remains one of the most important priorities for the growing human population. Thus, combining ecosystem restoration with economics is pivotal in setting successful conservation ...

International audience; In this paper two models of damaged materials are presented. The first one describes a structure composed by two adherents and an adhesive which is micro-cracked and subject to two different regimes, one in traction and one in compression. The se...

Summary Background Since the beginning of 2008, the implementation of a 100% activity-based payment system, has made efficiency one of the prime concern for the French health-care providing institutions. We therefore assessed the real cost of a scheduled total hip repla...
