Abstract
The paper discusses the projected configuration of the Thomson system on the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX-U). In this paper, we discuss the projected configuration of the Thomson system on NSTX-U. More specifically, we determine, through both optical modeling of the collection optics and in-vessel measurements, that the collecting fibers are to be displaced by at most 1 cm toward the imaging plane along the optical axis. Finally, we estimate the performance of the Thomson system in measuring the electron temperature for NSTX-U discharges.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Loss of function FLG alleles were first identified as causative of ichthyosis vulgaris (IV) and were subsequently found to be major predisposing factors for atopic dermatitis (AD) and atopic disorders. OBJECTIVES To identify independent factors associated with the clinical IV phenotype in adult caucasian patients with AD and to assess the performance of a global clinical severity score of IV in predicting common FLG null mutations. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a prospective study conducted from January 2007 to June 2008. Adult patients attending the department of dermatology with a diagnosis of AD with or without IV were eligible to participate. For each patient, five clinical signs of IV were scored from 0 to 3 - diffuse xerosis, hyperlinearity of palms, scales on legs, scalp desquamation and keratosis pilaris - and a global IV clinical severity score was derived (0-15). Age of onset of AD, SCORAD (SCORing of Atopic Dermatitis), family and personal history for other signs of atopy, and total immunoglobulin E were recorded. Genotyping was performed for R501X and 2282del4. Univariate and multivariate analysis for factors associated with AD or AD + IV were conducted. RESULTS In univariate analysis, family history of atopy, global clinical severity scoring and 2282del4 FLG mutation were positively correlated with the AD + IV phenotype. Using multivariate analysis, SCORAD for AD (OR 0·94, P = 0·01) and global clinical severity scoring for AD + IV (OR 2·62, P < 0·0001) were found to be independent factors. CONCLUSIONS The 2282del4 FLG mutation was confirmed as a good marker of early-onset disease. Moreover, our global clinical severity score yielded a good negative predictive value of common caucasian null FLG mutations.

Abstract
A significant fraction of high-harmonic fast-wave (HHFW) power applied to NSTX can be lost to the scrape-off layer (SOL) and deposited in bright and hot spirals on the divertor rather than in the core plasma. We show that the HHFW power flows to these spirals along magnetic field lines passing through the SOL in front of the antenna, implying that the HHFW power couples across the entire width of the SOL rather than mostly at the antenna face. This result will help guide future efforts to understand and minimize these edge losses in order to maximize fast-wave heating and current drive.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Until now, segmental vitiligo has been considered as a stable entity and mixed vitiligo, the association of segmental and nonsegmental vitiligo, has been reported rarely. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to search for factors associated with the generalization of vitiligo in patients with segmental vitiligo. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a prospective observational study conducted in the vitiligo clinic of the Department of Dermatology of Bordeaux, France. The Vitiligo European Task Force questionnaire was completed for each patient attending the clinic with a confirmed diagnosis of segmental vitiligo after exclusion of other forms of vitiligo (focal, mucosal, not classifiable.) Thyroid function and antithyroid antibodies were screened if not obtained in the previous year. RESULTS One hundred and twenty-seven patients were recruited: 101 had segmental vitiligo and 26 had segmental vitiligo that evolved into mixed vitiligo; 56 were male and 71 were female. Most patients had onset of segmental vitiligo before the age of 18. When conducting multivariate analysis, we found the following to be independent factors associated with the evolution of patients' disease from segmental vitiligo to mixed vitiligo: initial percentage of body surface involvement of the segment >1% [odds ratio (OR) 15·14, P=0·002], the presence of halo naevi (OR 24·82, P=0·0001) and leukotrichia (OR 25·73, P=0·0009). CONCLUSIONS Halo naevi association and leukotrichia at first consultation in segmental vitiligo are risk factors for the progression of segmental vitiligo to mixed vitiligo. In addition, this progression of segmental vitiligo to mixed vitiligo carries a stronger link if initial segmental involvement is situated on the trunk.

Abstract
AIM To compare paracetamol saving followed by the association of ketamine chlorhydrate - magnesium sulfate to ketamine chlorhydrate and analyze cost after the 2 protocols administration. MATERIAL AND METHODS We conducted this comparative study from June 2005 to January 2006 in the services of anesthesiology and resuscitation and visceral surgery of the teaching hospital Gabriel Touré, Bamako. 80 patients were split into 2 groups - group A receiving: 0,25mg/kg of ketamine chlorhydrate plus 50mg /kg of magnesium sulfate, group B receiving: 0,25mg/kg of ketamine chlorhydrate. RESULTS The 2 groups were compared by anthropometrical and clinical data (age, sex, weight) and ASA. The reduction of paracetamol dosage was 57, 50 % of the 4 g actually used per day in A group against 48, 50% in B group. CONCLUSION Ketamin chlorhydrate associated to magnesium sulfate insure a post-operative analgesic saving in visceral surgery. Cost of analgesia actually used is reduced.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The admission of a patient in intensive care justified by the severity of the disease, is a stressful situation for his heirs. A fair and understandable information is a major component of the process quality of care. OBJECTIVE Evaluate the practice of informing families of patients and their satisfaction in intensive care unit. METHOD AND MATERIAL We conducted a prospective study of 90 families of patients. The demographics of family representatives, and satisfaction data were collected. RESULTS The majority of parents were aged between 20-40. The sex ratio was 2.9 for men. The siblings had accounted for 23 parents whether 25,6%. In 46 cases whether 51%, the relatives of families were satisfied with information received. 57.8% did not have good information on the risks of treatment complications. The lack of explanation about the evolution of the disease remained a major concern for 36 families. 69 of parents whether 76.7% felt that the frequency of visits was satisfactory. In our series no contradiction has been recorded in the information provided in 87 (96.7%) parents of patients. 80 (88.9%) of parents of patients showed the courtesy of staff at the reception. 54 relatives of patients whether 60% said they could not have been involved in the therapeutic management of the patient. 41 parents of patients whether 45.6% do not differentiate between the role of different caregivers. 45 parents felt uncomfortable. CONCLUSION Despite the lack of normative information , most family members of patients were very satisfied with the information they were provided. Efforts to improve the satisfaction of families go through identifying the needs of the latter and effective communication strategy.

Abstract
The objectives of this descriptive prospective study were to determine the frequency of intrapartum obstetrical transfers, assess the sociodemographic profile of parturients requiring transfer, describe transfer modalities, and assess maternal and newborn outcomes. Study included all patients requiring intrepartum obstetrical transfer to the Ignace Deen University Hospital Gynecology Obstetrics Clinic in Conakry, Guinea from August 1st, 2009 to July 31st, 2010. Out of 3122 deliveries during the study period, intrapartum transfer was required in 220 cases, i.e. 7.05%. Mean patient age was 23.2 years (range, 14 to 44). The risk for intrapartum transfer was higher among multiparous or nulliparous women (incidence, 8.79%) and adolescents (incidence, 10%). Patients requiring transfer were mainly housewives (60%) and uneducated women (57.27%). Most had had an insufficient number (<4) of antenatal examinations (76.36%) and had been examined at peripheral maternity units (62.73%). In 175 cases (79.54%), patients were transferred by taxi. In 191 patients, treatment required surgery including 130 caesarian sections. There were 12 maternal deaths (5.45%) and 45 neonatal deaths out of 242 newborns including 22 twin deliveries (18.59%). Further work is necessary to improve referral and transfer at all levels of the health pyramid.

Abstract
In November 2009, ten suspicious cases of yellow fever, including six deaths, were notified in the region of Denguélé, in the northwest of Côte-d'Ivoire. In order to evaluate the extent of yellow fever virus circulation and the risk for local people, a mission of entomological investigation was carried out by the Ministry of Health and Public Hygiene of Côte-d'Ivoire. Entomological investigations were conducted in the villages of confirmed cases (Banakoro and Tron-Touba) and the centers of consultation and hospitalization of cases during illness. Breteau index and recipient index were quasi nil. Aedes aegypti was absent among the captured mosquitoes. On the other hand, Aedes luteocephalus and Aedes opok were present at Banakoro and Tron-Touba with respective average biting rates of 0.8 and 0.6 bite/man/twilight. This situation of epidemic in the northwest of Côte-d'Ivoire could be explained by the deterioration of Denguélé region's health system which is a consequence of the war started in the country in 2002 and which has lowered the immunity of the population.

Abstract
The authors in a prospective, analytical study of 8 months from January 1st to August 31st performed at the Ignace Deen Clinic of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Conakry University Hospital; assessed the impact of the mode of delivery in breech presentation on maternal and fetal outcome in the African context of Guinea. Breech presentation in mono fetal pregnancy of at least 28 weeks of amenorrhea was the inclusion criterion in this study. Among 1490 deliveries, 144 breech presentations were reviewed, representing a frequency of 9.66%. Half of breech deliveries (49.99%) were premature against only 11.85% in cephalic presentations. The breech was incomplete in 57.64% cases and complete in 42.35%. Caesarean section was performed in 40.97% of cases against 39.54% in cephalic presentation. The indications were often primiparity (30.50%), acute fetal distress (28.81%) and macrosomia (23.72%). Deliveries through the lower route frequently used the maneuver of Bracht (52.50%). 54.16% of the new-born babies had a fetal weight lower than 2500 g at born. Morbid Apgar score at the 1st minute after delivery through the lower route was found in 69.40% of the breech presentation born babies; however, this rate was 32.70% in cephalic presentation (p=0.000). The maternal morbidity concerned essentially perineal lesions (26.53%). The outcome is largely better in case of delivery through the upper route. The caesarean section is an alternative for the improvement of fetal outcome in countries with low resources.

It is about an observational prospective and descriptive survey that spreads on a period from January 2005 to December 2008. Has been included in the study all the HIV positive pregnant women followed in our service and their babies that had received ARV prophylaxis and 18 months of life serology. RESULTS We recorded 211 HIV positive pregnant women on a total of 9291 childbirths (2.27%). We noted 90.52% of HIV-1 vs 7.11% of type 2. The mother treatment consisted in a tri therapy in 77.25 vs 0.47% of bi anti retroviral and 22.28% of mono anti retro viral therapy. Maternal viral load was undetectable at the moment of delivery in 78.20% of cases. We noted vaginal delivery in 84.36% vs 15.64% of caesarean section. Newborns respectively received 67.32%; 4.88% and 22.92% of bi, tri and mono therapy. They formula-fed in 98.98%. The mother to child HIV transmission rate was 1.98%. CONCLUSION HIV prevalence in pregnant patients is relatively height. HARRT in HIV positive mothers associated to bi therapy and formula feeding to their infants permit to obtain low vertical HIV transmission rate.

Abstract
OBJECT Studying the Epidemiological and clinical profile of accidents on public ways at the welcome service of emergencies, CHU Gabriel Touré within the scope of accident reduction on public ways and an improvement of their taking in charge. METHODOLOGY Retro prospective study over a three-year- period including all the files of any patient emitted for accident happening on public ways without regard to race and sex. RESULT Over a three-year-period (from January 2007 to December 2009). Our team has analized 2450 hospitalization files with a follow-up going from 0 to 45 days. The most concerned ages range from 15 to 29 years (43 per cent) with a male predominance (81 per cent). The mechanism motorcycles-pedestrians (30.9 per cent) was the most represented. The mains lesions observed were cranial traumatisms (58.9 per cent), followed with fractures of limbs (13.5 per cent). Death-rate has been risen at the level of young men above all (from 15 to 29 years) and it was mainly due to cranial traumatisms. CONCLUSION Accidents on public ways represent a keen problem in matter of public health. The taking in charge of the curse should be very urgent. Information, communication and education of all the professional and social stratums seem necessary.

Abstract
This article describes the results of spatial heterodyne Doppler "coherence imaging" of carbon ion flows in the divertor region of the DIII-D tokamak. Spatially encoded interferometric projections of doubly ionized carbon emission at 465 nm have been demodulated and tomographically inverted to obtain the spatial distribution of the carbon ion parallel flow and emissivity. The operating principles of the new instruments are described, and the link between measured properties and line integrals of the flow field are established. An iterative simultaneous arithmetic reconstruction procedure is applied to invert the interferometric phase shift projections, and the reconstructed parallel flow field amplitudes are found to be in reasonable agreement with UEDGE modeling.

Abstract
In rural Senegal, three populations have been followed up since several decades and the malaria mortality trend has been observed since the mid-1980s. However, limits are associated with the verbal autopsy method used to determine causes of death, especially deaths due to malaria. A change in protocol occurred in recent years in two of these three sites with the involvement of two physicians (instead of only one) in the diagnosis. The objective is here to measure its potential impact on diagnosis of malaria deaths. Five hundred and fifteen diagnoses reported on child deaths occurred from 2000 to 2005 have been analysed. We have identified, on the basis of a multinomial logistic regression model, factors affecting the determination of malaria deaths among the characteristics of the child, the death, the illness and its symptoms, and we also took into account method factors. Factors related to the method do not play on the malaria diagnosis. This result insures the continuity of the series on malaria mortality statistics since 2000 in the two sites despite changes in the method. However, the new protocol leads to vanish possibility of having deaths among ill-defined or unknown causes. In the African context of absence of health statistics, data obtained through the verbal autopsy method in demographic surveillance system can provide accurate information in the epidemiological field, even regarding malaria.
