L’utilité sociale des associations : à la recherche d’une convention de coordination
Authors: Trouvé Hélène , Jolivet Patrick 
Published: November 2013

The social usefulness of associations : looking for a coordination convention.
In France, social usefulness seems to be becoming a tool for establishing the identity and the legitimacy of associations. Standing alternatively as a regulatory tool (for the authorities) and a signaling tool (for the associations), social usefulness appears to be an unstabilized notion. This article aims at determining whether construction of a convention concerning social usefulness by all participants in the associative sector makes it possible to stabilize it. With this end, the authors use the conceptual framework of the economics of conventions. They rely on the example of integration by economic activity.
Présence des personnes d’origine étrangère dans les minima sociaux et retour à l’emploi

Presence of people with a immigrant background in minimum welfare and return to employment.
A survey conducted by the DREES in 2006 has cast light for the first time on the extent of immigrants and descendants of immigrants compared to French-born beneficiaries of revenu minimum d’insertion (RMI), allocation de solidarité spécifique (ASS) and allocation de parent isolé (ASI) benefits. The study also offered information for RMI recipients concerning the role played by follow-up and their future after ceasing to receive minimum welfare benefits. Immigrants of African origin are poorer than French-born recipients and are three times more numerous in these welfare benefits than in the working population age group. Immigrants receiving ASS and RMI benefits, irrespective of their origins, declared that they accessed certain rights less often than French-born recipients for such needs as health, housing, food or clothing assistance. On a comparable basis in terms of sex, age, qualifications and time receiving the RMI, there were few differences with regard to support, occupation in a job, withdrawal from welfare and transfer to employment by geographic origin of the recipients.

Le rôle de la famille dans la transmission politique entre les générations [Histoire et bilan des études de socialisation politique ]
Authors: Tournier Vincent 
Published: November 2013

The role of the family in political transmission between generations. History and review of political socialisation studies.
This article attempts to review the studies focusing on the family’s political influence. After considering the origins of contemporary debates, the article shows that the advent of scientific considerations has been gradual since the Second World War in research on political socialisation of children. In the early phase, which could be described as “ pre-scientific”, the dominant approaches were relatively categorical. Subsequent consideration cast doubt on the initial certainty, in particular with regard to the position of children and the real impact of the family in imparting political opinions. Subsequently, analyses have been enhanced, which would make it possible now to consider new avenues for research.
Testing species limits of Eurytomidae (Hymenoptera) associated with galls induced by Diplolepis (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) in Canada using an integrative approach
Authors: Zhang Y. Miles , Gates Michael W. , Shorthouse Joseph D. 
Published: November 2013

AbstractStudies of insect host-parasitoid relationships are often confounded by the difficulties associated with species delimitation in taxonomically challenging groups. Eurytomidae (Hymenoptera) are common parasitoids associated with galls induced by Cynipidae (Hymenoptera) and are difficult to identify due to their small size, morphological conservatism, and unreliable published host records. This study tests the species limits of eurytomids associated with galls induced by Diplolepis Geoffroy (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) in Canada using an integrative taxonomy approach including adult morphology, the mitochondrial gene cytochrome c oxidase I, host records, and geographical range. Incongruences between morphological and molecular data were found within the Eurytoma discordans Bugbee complex, as Eurytoma discordans, Eurytoma acuta Bugbee, and Eurytoma calcarea Bugbee were shown to be new synonyms. The results also revealed the presence of cryptic species within Eurytoma spongiosa Bugbee. Furthermore, issues that have impeded ecological and biological studies of eurytomids associated with rose galls such as host specificity and sex association were resolved using DNA barcodes, providing new insights into the evolutionary history of this difficult group.

Published: November 2013

ABSTRACTEar projection is an important goal to be achieved after stage two (ear elevation) in cases of microtia. This is a retrospective study conducted on patients with microtia who underwent staged reconstruction for the same. This study has been carried out over a period of 10 years with 211 patients. Dental impression compound was used as a splint after ear elevation and split skin grafting to maintain the projection of the ear. Projection of the ear was measured both pre- and post-procedure and at every follow-up using goniometer and photographic documentation was simultaneously done. Statistical analysis was performed using t-test. Patients were reviewed every month and splint was continued until 6 months post-surgery. The splint was very effective in maintaining the ear projection of more than 20° even after prolonged follow-up of upto 2 years. There were no complications associated with the splint application or prolonged use.
Augmentation rhinoplasty with custom-made S-shape silicone implant in Asians: A 15-year experience
Authors: Lohsiriwat Visnu , Chuangsuwanich Apirag 
Published: November 2013

ABSTRACT
Background: Asians have low nasal dorsum, thick skin envelope, low defined alar cartilage, low projection of nasal tip and broad alar base. Augmentation rhinoplasty with silicone prosthesis has been performed with predictable results, but unfavourable results and complications still present. This series show techniques and results from single surgeon experience. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 548 patients chart during January 1995 to December 2009. All patients underwent custom-made S-shape implant silicone augmentation rhinoplasty operated by a single surgeon. There were three major operative steps: (1) Intra-operative S-shape implant carving; (2) pocket dissection through bilateral rim incision and (3) tension adjustment before closure. All the patients were recorded for early surgical complications and satisfaction. Results: There were 519 women and 29 men. The mean age is 25.5 years (18-56 years). Mean follow-up period was 6 months (1-60 months). The majority of patient were appointed for esthetic augmentation (86.8%). 515 cases (94.9%) showed well satisfaction following the operation. The total complication rate was 6.5% (4.9% deviation, 0.7% extrusion, 0.5% hematoma and 0.3% infection). All the complications were corrected with uneventful sequelae. Conclusion: Augmentation rhinoplasty with custom-made S-shape silicone implant by closed approach provides high satisfaction with acceptable early complication rate.

ABSTRACT
Introduction: Non-healing wound in the sternal region after coronary arteries bypass graft surgery is a serious complication. For healing a chronic wound, several novel approaches have been proposed recently such as using bone marrow stem cells, platelets and fibrin glue (PFG); but a non-invasive method is highly desirable in the first approach for treatment. The current study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of the combination of PFG in one treatment. Materials and Methods: We report on the treatment of six patients with life-threatening chronic sternum wounds, which caused septicemia with multi-drug resistant pathogens. The ulcers were extensively debrided initially and were measured and photographed at weekly intervals. The combination of PFG was applied topically on the wound after every 2 days. Results: The wounds were completely closed in five patients and significantly reduced in size in one. There was no evidence of local or systemic complications and any abnormal tissue formation, keloid or hypertrophic scarring. Conclusions: Our study suggests, in the first approach, PFG can be used safely in order to heal a non healing sternum wound following coronary artery bypass surgery.

ABSTRACTAdequate drainage of venous blood is the most critical part of successful free tissue transfer. We report a case of anterolateral thigh flap used for covering open communited tibial fracture. The flap was salvaged with short term augmentation of venous drainage with external shunt. The drainage was continued for six days. It was confirmed that there is no more congestion after blocking the catheter and then the drainage was discontinued on seventh day. The flap was successfully salvaged. This method has potential applications in multiple situations for successful salvage of free tissue transfer.

ABSTRACTTouraine Solente Gole syndrome is a rare hereditary syndrome of primary pachydermoperiostosis, with the characteristic triad of pachydermia (or elephant like skin), periostosis and acropachia. A 27-year-old patient presented with aesthetic deformity of forehead due to deep skin folds and coarsening of facial features due to progressive thickening of skin. Associated palmoplantar hyperkeratosis with broadened of finger and toe tips and digital clubbing were noticed. Dermatologic evaluation revealed cutis verticis gyrata of scalp, seborrhoeic hyperplasia of face and hyperhidrosis. Natural history of the disease and aetiopathogenesis were reviewed. Aesthetic correction of forehead through frontal rhytidectomy was attempted.

ABSTRACTTotal upper and lower eyelid unilateral full thickness reconstruction is a surgical challenge. A case of right orbital haemangioma with unilateral complete defect of total upper and lower eyelids with right orbital exenteration is reported, together with the surgical technique of reconstruction. Patient was a 24-year-old female who underwent right orbital exenteration with total upper and lower eyelid excision for orbital haemangioma presented after 3 weeks of the above procedure. In the first stage split thickness skin grafting is used to resurface orbital cavity raw area followed by staged reconstruction of total upper and lower eyelid reconstruction using pedicle deltopectoral flap. This reconstruction provided stable eyelid reconstruction to retain ocular prosthesis with concealed and minimal donor area. After reconstruction patient underwent rehabilitation with ocular prosthesis, now the patient is satisfied with cosmetically acceptable results.

Published: November 2013

ABSTRACTA 35-year-old male farmer came in contact with 11,000 volts high tension electric wire and sustained full thickness burn wounds over scapula, upper limb and anterior abdominal wall along with perforation of the intestine. Patient was initially managed conservatively in general surgery ward and was referred to us after 3 days with necrosis of the burned skin and muscles over the shoulder and abdomen. Patient was initially managed conservatively and then thorough debridement of the necrotic skin over the left shoulder and upper arm was done and the area was split skin grafted. Patient developed enterocutaneous fistula, which healed over a period of 8 weeks. The granulating wound over the abdomen was also skin grafted and patient was discharged after 18 days. About 4 months, after the discharge patient presented with ventral hernia. Repair of ventral hernia by synthetic mesh application and reconstruction of the abdominal wall with a free tensor fascia lata flap was done over the mesh, but the flap failed. Then after debridement two random pattern transposition skin flaps, one from the right upper and another from the left lower abdomen were transposed over the abdominal wound and donor area was skin grafted. Patient was discharged after 17 days.

AbstractIn this paper, we discuss the isometric embedding problem in hyperbolic space with nonnegative extrinsic curvature. We prove a priori bounds for the trace of the second fundamental form H and extend the result to n-dimensions. We also obtain an estimate for the gradient of the smaller principal curvature in 2 dimensions.
The Accuracy and Adequacy of In-Field Artifact Analysis
Authors: Heilen Michael , Altschul Jeffrey H. 
Published: November 2013

AbstractArchaeologists have traditionally collected artifacts during survey in order to analyze them in a laboratory setting and curate the artifacts and associated documentation for future analysis, interpretation, and preservation. In recent decades, however, there has been a trend in the western United States to avoid collection during survey and to relegate most artifact analysis to the field, typically conducted by field crew. Despite heavy reliance on in-field analysis to characterize sites during survey, very little is known about how accurate and adequate in-field analysis is for site interpretation and management. This article presents the findings of a pilot experiment that tested in-field analysis and digital photograph analysis at two sites in the western United States using multiple quantitative measures and qualitative assessments. The results of the analysis show that in-field analysis has a strong potential to yield inaccurate and highly variable results that can lead to the misidentification and misinterpretation of important site components. We recommend that sample collections be made during survey, where possible, and properly curated. For projects in which in-field analysis is used, we recommend that in-field analysis be tested using similar methods to determine whether it can meet an acceptable standard.
A Non-Destructive Method for Dating Human Remains

Published: November 2013

AbstractThe skeletal remains of several Native Americans were recovered in an eroded state from a creek bank in northeastern New Mexico. Subsequently stored in a nearby museum, the remains became lost for almost 36 years. In a recent effort to repatriate the remains, it was necessary to fit them into a cultural chronology in order to determine the appropriate tribe(s) for consultation pursuant to the Native American Grave Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). Because the remains were found in an eroded context with no artifacts or funerary objects, their age was unknown. Having been asked to avoid destructive dating methods such as radiocarbon dating, the authors used Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) to date the sediments embedded in the cranium. The OSL analyses yielded reliable dates between A.D. 1415 and A.D. 1495. Accordingly, we conclude that the remains were interred somewhat earlier than A.D. 1415, but no later than A.D. 1495. We believe the remains are from individuals ancestral to the Ute Mouache Band, which is now being contacted for repatriation efforts. Not only do our methods contribute to the immediate repatriation efforts, they provide archaeologists with a versatile, non-destructive, numerical dating method that can be used in many burial contexts.
Mantle cell lymphoma: 2013 Update on diagnosis, risk‐stratification, and clinical management
Authors: Vose Julie M. 
Published: November 2013

Disease OverviewMantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a non‐Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by involvement of the lymph nodes, spleen, blood, and bone marrow with a short remission duration to standard therapies and a median overall survival of 4–5 years.DiagnosisDiagnosis is based on lymph node, bone marrow, or tissue morphology of centrocytic lymphocytes, small cell type, or blastoid variant cells. A chromosomal translocation t(11:14) is the molecular hallmark of MCL, resulting in the overexpression of cyclin D1. Cyclin D1 is detected by immunohistochemistry in 98% of cases. The absence of SOX‐11 or a low Ki‐67 may correlate with a more indolent form of MCL. The differential diagnosis of MCL includes small lymphocytic lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma, and follicular lymphoma.Risk StratificationThe Mantle Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (MIPI) is the prognostic model most often used and incorporates ECOG performance status, age, leukocyte count, and lactic dehydrogenase. A modification of the MIPI also adds the Ki‐67 proliferative index if available. The median overall survival (OS) for the low risk group was not reached (5‐year OS of 60%). The median OS for the intermediate risk group was 51 months and 29 months for the high risk group.Risk‐Adapted TherapyFor selected indolent, low MIPI MCL patients, initial observation may be appropriate therapy. For younger patients with intermediate or high risk MIPI MCL, aggressive therapy with a cytarabine containing regimen ± autologous stem cell transplantation should be considered. For older MCL patients with intermediate or high risk MIPI, combination chemotherapy with R‐CHOP, R‐Bendamustine, or a clinical trial should be considered. At the time of relapse, agents directed at activated pathways in MCL cells such as bortezomib (NFkB inhibitor) or lenalidamide (anti‐angiogenesis) are approved agents. Clinical trials with Ibruitinib (Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase inhibitor) or Idelalisib (PI3K inhibitor) have demonstrated excellent clinical activity in MCL patients. Autologous or allogeneic stem cell transplantation can also be considered in young patients. Am. J. Hematol. 88:1083–1088, 2013. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Menopause effect on blood Fe and Cu isotope compositions
Authors: Jaouen Klervia , Balter Vincent 
Published: November 2013

ABSTRACTIron (δ56Fe) and copper (δ65Cu) stable isotope compositions in blood of adult human include a sex effect, which still awaits a biological explanation. Here, we investigate the effect of menopause by measuring blood δ56Fe and δ65Cu values of aging men and women. The results show that, while the Fe and Cu isotope compositions of blood of men are steady throughout their lifetime, postmenopausal women exhibit blood δ65Cu values similar to men, and δ56Fe values intermediate between men and premenopausal women. The residence time of Cu and Fe in the body likely explains why the blood δ65Cu values, but not the δ56Fe values, of postmenopausal women resemble that of men. We suggest that the Cu and Fe isotopic fractionation between blood and liver resides in the redox reaction occurring during hepatic solicitation of Fe stores. This reaction affects the Cu speciation, which explains why blood Cu isotope composition is impacted by the cessation of menstruations. Considering that Fe and Cu sex differences are recorded in bones, we believe this work has important implications for their use as a proxy of sex or age at menopause in past populations.

Generation of precise point mutation mice by footprintless genome modification
Authors: Morioka Yuka , Fujihara Yoshitaka , Okabe Masaru 
Published: November 2013

AbstractPoint mutation mice are a key tool in the study of biological functions of genomic DNA sequences and the creation of human disease models. These mice are produced by homologous recombination combined with site‐specific recombinase, which allows removal of drug selection cassettes. However, the methods currently available leave ectopic sequences in the “inactive” intron region of the targeted genome in addition to the desired mutation. Since recent research suggests that the intron region may actually have some functionality, these sequences could potentially interfere with neighboring gene expression and, as a result, affect the mouse phenotype. To completely avoid this issue, we used the PiggyBac transposon to remove selection cassettes and achieve precise genome modification without leaving behind a footprint. This PiggyBac system allowed us to successfully generate mice carrying an artificially introduced Wv point mutation in the Kit gene, and these mice were confirmed to have phenotypes identical to spontaneous Wv mutation mice. Generation of Wv‐mutation corrected mice was also possible, and phenotypes were completely restored. Our footprintless genome modification technology can generate precise point mutation mice with only the desired mutation, and they reflect an accurate phenotype that makes these mice a reliable and “worry‐free” research resource. 52:68–77, 2014. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Parents of Children with Dyslexia: Cognitive, Emotional and Behavioural Profile
Authors: Bonifacci Paola , Montuschi Martina , Lami Laura , Snowling Margaret J. 
Published: November 2013

Within a dimensional view of reading disorders, it is important to understand the role of environmental factors in determining individual differences in literacy outcome. In the present study, we compared a group of 40 parents of children with dyslexia (PDys) with a group of 40 parents of typically developing children. The two parent groups did not differ in socioeconomic status or nonverbal IQ. Participants were assessed on cognitive (IQ, digit span) and literacy (reading fluency and accuracy) tasks, phonological awareness and verbal fluency measures. Questionnaires addressed reading history, parental distress, family functioning, anxiety and depression. The PDys group performed worse in all literacy measures and more frequently reported a history of poor reading; they also showed more parental distress. There were no differences between the two groups in depression or family functioning and no differences between mothers and fathers. Findings indicate that PDys show a cognitive profile consistent with the broader phenotype of dyslexia (i.e. reading impairment and poor phonological awareness), whereas, considering the emotional profile, the impact of dyslexia on the family system is limited to parental distress associated with the perception of having a child with specific needs.

Parents of children with dyslexia may themselves have reading problems and hence difficulty in supporting their children's school work.
Practitioners may consider reading history (as measured by the Adult Reading History Questionnaire) as a first screening tool to identify possible reading difficulties in parents.
Practitioners should help parents of children with dyslexia to manage their emotional reactions to having a child with difficulties.
Family functioning does not differ within families with and without dyslexia.
Being the parent of a child with dyslexia is not a significant risk factor for a mental health disorder (e.g. anxiety/depression).
