Abstract
The CAMCATT-AI4GEO extensive field experiment took place in Toulouse, a city in the southwest of France, from 14th to 25th June 2021 (with complementary measurements performed on the 6 September 2021). Its main objective was the acquisition of a new reference dataset on an urban site to support the development and validation of data products from the future thermal infrared (TIR) satellite missions such as TRISHNA (CNES/ISRO), LSTM (ESA) and SBG (NASA). With their high spatial (between 30-60m) and temporal (2-3 days) resolutions, the future TIR satellite data will allow a better investigation of the urban climate at the neighbourhood scale. However, in order to validate the future products of these missions such as LST, air temperature, comfort index and Urban Heat Island (UHI), there is a need to accurately characterise the organisation of the city in terms of 3D geometry, spectral optical properties and both land surface temperature and emissivity (LST and LSE) at several scales. In this context, the CAMCATT-AI4GEO field campaign provides a set of airborne VISNIR-SWIR (Visible Near InfraRed - ShortWave InfraRed) hyperspectral imagery, multispectral thermal infrared (TIR) imagery and 3D LiDAR acquisitions, together with a variety of ground data collected, for some of them, simultaneously to the flight. The ground dataset includes surface reflectance measured spectrally with ASD spectroradiometers and in six spectral bands spreading from shortwave to thermal infrared and for two viewing angles with a SOC410-DHR handheld reflectometer. It is completed with LST and LSE retrieved from thermal infrared radiance acquired in six spectral bands with CIMEL radiometers. It also includes meteorological data coming from four radio soundings (one of which was taken during the flight), data routinely collected at the Blagnac airport reference station as well as air temperature and humidity acquired using instrumented cars following two different itineraries. In addition, a link is provided to access the data routinely collected by the network of weather stations set up by Toulouse Metropole in the city and its surroundings. This data paper describes this new reference urban dataset which can be useful for many applications such as calibration/validation of at-surface radiance, LST and LSE data products as well as higher level products such as air temperature or comfort index. It also provides valuable opportunities for other applications in urban climate studies, such as supporting the validation of microclimate models.

Abstract
Abstract
A new process for elaborating continuously organic-inorganic hybrid materials by reactive extrusion is presented. This synthesis consists in formulating a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate (EVA)/tetrapropoxysilane (TPOS or Si(OC3H7)4)/catalyst blend by a corotating twin screw extruder followed by two successive reaction steps: on line microwave crosslinking reaction and hydrolysis-condensation reactions leading to a silica network cografted onto the organic matrix.
Extrusion feed rate (Q), temperature, microwave oven power (P), and microwave curing time (tmw) were studied. Crosslinking density was evaluated before and after hydrolysis-condensation reactions and compared with the previous results obtained in static conditions. These materials tailored by an on line process present a permanent elasticity at high temperature (up to 200 °C) and a certain optical transparency. This new approach offers the possibility to synthesize massive samples based on organic-inorganic hybrid material.

Abstract
With the emergence of disease-modifying therapies for Parkinson's disease, reliable longitudinal markers are needed to quantify pathology and demonstrate disease progression. We developed the A53T-AAV rat model of synucleinopathy by combining longitudinal measures over 12 weeks. We first characterized the progression of the motor and dopaminergic deficits. Then, we monitored the disease progression using the [18F]FMT Positron Emission Tomography (PET) radiotracer. The nigral injection of A53T-AAV led to an increase in phosphorylated α-synuclein on S129, a progressive accumulation of α-synuclein aggregates, and a decrease of dopaminergic function associated with a deterioration of motor activity. The longitudinal monitoring of A53T-AAV rats with [18F]FMT PET showed a progressive reduction of the Kc outcome parameter in the caudate putamen from the lesioned side. Interestingly, the progressive reduction in the [18F]FMT PET signal correlated with defects in the stepping test. In conclusion, we established a progressive rat model of α-synuclein pathology which monitors the deficit longitudinally using both the [18F]FMT PET tracer and behavioral parameters, 2 features that have strong relevance for translational approaches.

Abstract
Due to a mix-up an older couple (69 years and 71 years) ate a meal with herbs from their garden that contained leaves of monkshood (Aconitum napellus). The monkshood plants grew close to the herbs in their garden. Both patients developed the typical symptoms of aconitine poisoning with paresthesia, hypotension and bradycardia. Over the course of time both developed cardiac arrhythmia with ventricular extrasystoles and required monitoring on the intensive care unit (ICU). The husband was more severely affected and needed catecholamines for successful treatment of hypotension (70/40 mmHg) and bradycardia (45 bpm). The toxicological analysis of the patients' serum taken 3.5 h after ingestion led to the detection of 1.8 ng/ml and 2.0 ng/ml aconitine, respectively. The patients were discharged in good general condition after 1 and 2 days, respectively. Monkshood (Aconitum napellus) is one of the most toxic native plants that can also be found in gardens due to its popularity as an ornamental plant. All parts of the plant contain toxic diterpenoid alkaloids, such as aconitine. Aconitine causes persistent activation of the fast voltage-gated sodium channels resulting in severe cardiac and neurological toxicity. Treatment of aconitine-induced ventricular arrhythmias is challenging as they are often refractory to electrical cardioversion and antiarrhythmic drugs.

Abstract
Hops is a new culture in Brazil. Tissue culture can be an important technique for rapid hop propagation. This paper aims to characterize responses from different genotypes under different growth regulators through the interrelationship of response variables important to hop in vitro growth. Three genotypes were cultivated in six culture media with different combinations of growth regulators, BAP (6-benzylaminopurine), IAA (3-indolacetic acid) and GA3 (gibberellic acid). The means were compared by orthogonal contrasts and the interrelationship of the response variables was performed by path analysis. American genotypes showed favorable root development under the BAP + IAA combination, while the use of IAA improved shoot development. The origin of genotypes was important for defining the best protocol for in vitro cultivation. The path coefficient showed that the variable number of shoots has stronger direct effect on the number of nodal segments. Additionally, in tissue culture assays, the use of a covariable and proper error distribution significantly increased experimental accuracy.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective
Prehabilitation programs claim to improve exercise capacity and postoperative outcomes. The study aim was to assess the feasibility of a prehabilitation program and its effects on fitness and clinical outcomes after major abdominal surgery.
Methods
In this prospective pilot study, patients were assigned to high-intensity physical exercise training with 3 training sessions per week for 3 weeks preoperatively. Feasibility of this intervention was assessed based on recruitment and adherence to the training program. Impact on fitness (VO2 AT) was evaluated and correlated with complications and length of stay (LOS).
Results
Of 980 eligible patients, 87 patients (8.9%) were approached for inclusion. Main obstacles to not approach patients were insufficient time (< 3 weeks) prior to scheduled surgery (n = 276, 28.2%) or screening failure (n = 312, 31.8%). Out of these 87 patients, 24 (28%) declined to participate, 43 (49%) met exclusion criteria and 20 (23%) were included. Six patients (30%) could not complete the prehabilitation program due to contra-indication for exercise training evidenced during the test (n = 3), lack of motivation (n = 2) and modification of the planned operating date (n = 1). VO2 AT increased from 9.8 to 11.5 ml/min/kg (p = 0.050). There were no correlations between the change in VO2 AT and postoperative complications (r = -0.133, p = 0.649) and LOS (r = -0.94, p = 0.750).
Conclusion
Prehabilitation programs are difficult to implement and many patients are either not eligible or not motivated. Future efforts should concentrate on those patients who are most likely to benefit from these time- and cost-intensive interventions.

Abstract
Apraxia occurs frequently in patients with dementia. Buccofacial apraxia (BFA) characteristics have been less investigated than limb or speech apraxia. An association between BFA and oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) in old patients with dementia has not yet been explored. We aimed to assess the prevalence of BFA in patients with dementia and evaluate the relationship between BFA, OD, and dementia. We have prospectively included 117 outpatients with dementia referred to a geriatric consultation. Oropharyngeal dysphagia was diagnosed using the volume viscosity swallowing test (V-VST). Buccofacial apraxia was evaluated by miming 7 meaningless gestures. A complementary geriatric assessment of 6-domains completed the evaluation. Buccofacial apraxia was present in 54 (48.6%) patients. Proxies reported OD more frequently in the group of patients with BFA compared to the group without (P = .04). Prevalence of OD assessed with the V-VST was similar between patients with and without apraxia (P = .9). Patients with BFA had a significant lower Mini-Mental State Examination suggesting a more severe cognitive decline (18.1 ± 4.5 vs 15.8 ± 5, P = .01), a lower activities of daily living relative to disabilities (5 ± 0.8 vs 4.3 ± 1.3, P = .001), and had a lower gait speed that indicated frailty (P = .03).In conclusion, our results indicate a relationship between BFA and severity of dementia, disability, and frailty with no significant association between BFA and OD.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this retrospective study was to correlate CT patterns of fatal cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) with postmortem pathology observations. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 70 lung lobes of 14 patients who died of reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction-confirmed COVID-19. All patients underwent antemortem CT and autopsy between March 9 and April 30, 2020. Board-certified radiologists and pathologists performed lobewise correlations of pulmonary observations. In a consensus reading, 267 radiologic and 257 histopathologic observations of the lungs were recorded and systematically graded according to severity. These observations were matched and evaluated. RESULTS Predominant CT observations were ground-glass opacities (GGO) (59/70 lobes examined) and areas of consolidation (33/70). The histopathologic observations were consistent with diffuse alveolar damage (70/70) and capillary dilatation and congestion (70/70), often accompanied by microthrombi (27/70), superimposed acute bronchopneumonia (17/70), and leukocytoclastic vasculitis (7/70). Four patients had pulmonary emboli. Bronchial wall thickening at CT histologically corresponded with acute bronchopneumonia. GGOs and consolidations corresponded with mixed histopathologic observations, including capillary dilatation and congestion, interstitial edema, diffuse alveolar damage, and microthrombosis. Vascular alterations were prominent observations at both CT and histopathology. CONCLUSION A significant proportion of GGO correlated with the pathologic processes of diffuse alveolar damage, capillary dilatation and congestion, and microthrombosis. Our results confirm the presence and underline the importance of vascular alterations as key pathophysiologic drivers in lethal COVID-19.Supplemental material is available for this article.© RSNA, 2020.

Abstract
Alpha-synuclein (α-Syn) is a key protein involved in Parkinson's disease (PD) pathology. PD is characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neuronal cells in the substantia nigra pars compacta and the abnormal accumulation and aggregation of α-Syn in the form of Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites. More precisely, the aggregation of α-Syn is associated with the dysfunctionality and degeneration of neurons in PD. Moreover, mutations in the SNCA gene, which encodes α-Syn, cause familial forms of PD and are the basis of sporadic PD risk. Given the role of the α-Syn protein in the pathology of PD, animal models that reflect the dopaminergic neuronal loss and the widespread and progressive formation of α-Syn aggregates in different areas of the brain constitute a valuable tool. Indeed, animal models of PD are important for understanding the molecular mechanisms of the disease and might contribute to the development and validation of new therapies. In the absence of animal models that faithfully reproduce human PD, in recent years, numerous animal models of PD based on α-Syn have been generated. In this review, we summarize the main features of the α-Syn pre-formed fibrils (PFFs) model and recombinant adeno-associated virus vector (rAAV) mediated α-Syn overexpression models, providing a detailed comparative analysis of both models. Here, we discuss how each model has contributed to our understanding of PD pathology and the advantages and weakness of each of them.

Abstract
Tauopathies are neurodegenerative diseases characterized by the intraneuronal accumulation of aggregated tau. The staging of this neurodegenerative process is well established for Alzheimer’s disease as well as for other tauopathies. The stereotypical pattern of tau pathology in these diseases is consistent with the hypothesis that the tau protein can spread in a ‘prion-like’ manner. It proposes that extracellular pathological tau species can transmit pathology from cell to cell. Accordingly, by targeting these spreading species with therapeutic antibodies one should be able to slow or halt the progression of tau pathology. To be effective, antibodies should neutralize the pathological species present in Alzheimer’s disease brains and block their cell-to-cell spread. To evaluate both aspects, tau antibody D, which recognizes an epitope in the central region of tau, and was selected for its outstanding ability to block tau seeding in cell based assays, was used in this study. Here, we addressed two fundamental questions: (i) can this anti-tau antibody neutralize the pathological species present in Alzheimer’s disease brains; and (ii) can it block the cell-to-cell spread of tau seeds in vivo? First, antibody D effectively prevented the induction of tau pathology in the brains of transgenic mice that had been injected with human Alzheimer’s disease brain extracts, showing that it could effectively neutralize the pathological species present in these extracts. Second, by using K18 P301L tau fibrils to induce pathology, we further demonstrated that antibody D was also capable of blocking the progression of tau pathology to distal brain regions. In contrast, an amino-terminal tau antibody, which was less effective at blocking tau seeding in vitro showed less efficacy in reducing Alzheimer’s disease patient tau driven pathology in the transgenic mouse model. We did not address whether the same is true for a spectrum of other amino-terminal antibodies that were tested in vitro. These data highlight important differences between tau antibodies and, when taken together with other recently published data, suggest that epitope may be important for function.

Abstract
Objectif : Évaluer les différences interindividuelles relatives aux changements psychologiques positifs vécus, selon que les patientes bénéficient ou non d’un suivi psychologique.
Matériel et méthodes : Le PTGI a été administré, auprès de 68 patientes atteintes d’un cancer du sein (Mâge = 46,97 ; ET = 6,92), au début des traitements adjuvants (T0) puis 6 (T1) et 12 mois (T2) après.
Résultats : Les femmes ayant reçu un suivi psychologique rapportent, à T0 et T1, de plus hauts scores de PTG, relations aux autres, nouvelles opportunités par rapport à celles qui n’ont pas bénéficié d’un suivi.
Conclusion : Ces résultats confirment qu’une prise en charge psychologique du cancer du sein permet un meilleur ajustement à la maladie.

Abstract
Une enquête réalisée auprès de 300 femmes atteintes d’un cancer du sein a permis d’examiner leur intérêt pour la réalité virtuelle (RV), les modalités d’immersion attendues ainsi que leurs attentes vis-à-vis de ce dispositif. Les résultats indiquent que la majorité des femmes (93 %) souhaiterait avoir recours à la RV durant leurs traitements, sachant que leurs préférences d’immersion portent sur un environnement naturel accompagné de musique et/ou de relaxation guidée. La RV est envisagée comme un outil pertinent pour s’évader, mieux accepter les soins et réguler leurs émotions. Pour faciliter l’immersion virtuelle, cette étude souligne combien il est important de connaître leurs aspirations personnelles pour leur offrir un soutien technologique individualisé.

Abstract
Infective endocarditis is a serious condition, which is associated with high mortality in elderly patients. Gemella haemolysans (GH) is a microorganism from the Streptococcus family, rarely involved in infective endocarditis. Here, we present a case of Gemella haemolysans endocarditis in an 86-year-old patient, successfully treated by antibiotics and surgery following a pre-treatment comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA). This case is discussed in the context of a review of all published cases of Gemella haemolysans endocarditis. We illustrate the benefit of a systematic pre-treatment comprehensive geriatric assessment in elderly patients with infective endocarditis.

Abstract
EUSO-SPB1 was a balloon-borne mission of the JEM-EUSO (Joint Experiment Missions for Extreme Universe Space Observatory) Program aiming at the ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) observations from space. We operated the EUSO-SPB1 telescope consisting of 1 m2 Fresnel refractive optics and multi-anode photomultiplier tubes. With a total of 2304 channels, each performed the photon counting every 2.5 µs, allowing for spatiotemporal imaging of the air shower events in an ~ 11°× 11° field of view. EUSO-SPB1 was the first balloon-borne fluorescence detector with a potential to detect air shower events initiated by the EeV energy cosmic rays. On 24 April 2017 UTC, EUSO-SPB1 was launched on the NASA’s Super Pressure Balloon that flew at ~16 – 33 km flight height for ~12 days. Before the flight was terminated, ~27 hours of data acquired in the air shower detection mode were transmitted to the ground. In the present work, we aim at evaluating the role of the clouds during the operation of EUSO-SPB1. We employ the WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) model to numerically simulate the cloud distribution below EUSO-SPB1. We discuss the key results of the WRF model and the impact of the clouds on the air shower measurement and the efficiency of the cosmic ray observation. The present work is a part of the collaborative effort to estimate the exposure for air shower detections.

Abstract
Characterized by a fluid and deformable interface, ligand-functionalized emulsion droplets are used as model probes to address biophysical, biological, and developmental questions. Functionalization protocols usually rely on the use of headgroup-modified phospholipids that are dissolved in the oil phase prior to emulsification, leading to a broad range of surface densities within a given droplet population. With the aim to coat particles homogeneously with biologically relevant lipids and proteins (streptavidin, immunoglobulins, etc.), we developed a reliable surface decoration protocol based on the use of polar cosolvents to dissolve the lipids in the aqueous phase after the droplet production. We show that the surface density of the lipids at the interface has a narrow normal distribution for droplets having the same size. We performed titration isotherms for lipids and biologically relevant proteins on these drops. Then, we studied the influence of the presence of surfactants in the medium on lipid insertion and compared the results for a range of polar cosolvents of increasing polarity. To assess both the generality and the biocompatibility of the method, we show that we can produce more sophisticated, monodisperse functional magnetic emulsions with a very high surface homogeneity. Using an oil denser than the surrounding culture medium, we show that IgG-coated droplets can be used as probes for phagocytosis experiments.

Abstract
Abstract:Main requirements for an Anesthesia Information Management System (AIMS) are the supply of additional information for the anesthesiologist at his workstation and complete documentation of the anesthetic procedure. With the implementation of an AIMS (NarkoData) and effective user support, the quality of documentation and the information flow at the anesthesia workstation could be increased. Today, more than 20,000 anesthesia procedures are annually recorded with the AIMS at 112 decentralized workstations. The network for data entry and the presentation and evaluation of data, statistics and results directly available at the clinical workstation was made operational.

Abstract
AbstractAt the Gielßen University Hospital electronic data processing systems have been in routine use since 1975. In the early years developments were focused on ADT functions (admission/discharge/transfer) and laboratory systems. In the next decade additional systems were introduced supporting various functional departments. In the mid-eighties the need to stop the ongoing trend towards more and more separated standalone systems was realized and it was decided to launch a strategic evaluation and planning process which sets the foundation for an integrated hospital information system (HIS). The evaluation of the HELP system for its portability into the German hospital environment was the first step in this process. Despite its recognized capabilities in integrating decision support and communication technologies, and its powerful HIS development tools, the large differences between American and German hospital organization, influencing all existing HELP applications, and the incompatibility of the HELP tools with modern software standards were two important factors forcing the investigation of alternative solutions. With the HELP experience in mind, a HIS concept for the Gießen University Hospital was developed. This new concept centers on the idea of a centralized relational patient database on a highly reliable database server, and clinical front-end applications which might be running on various other computer systems (mainframes, departmental UNIX satellites or PCs in a LAN) integrated into a comprehensive open HIS network. The first step towards this integrated approach was performed with the implementation of ADT and results reporting functions on care units.

Abstract
Summary
Objectives: In our department, we have been using an Anesthesia Information Management System (AIMS) for five years. In this study, we tested to what extent data extracted from the AIMS could be suitable for the supervision and time-management of operating rooms.
Methods: From 1995 to 1999, all relevant data from 103,264 anesthetic procedures were routinely recorded online with the automatic anesthesia record keeping system NarkoData. The program is designed to record patient related time data, such as the beginning of anesthesia or surgical procedure, on a graphical anesthesia record sheet. The total number of minutes of surgery and anesthesia for each surgical subspecialty per hour/day and day of the year was calculated for each of the more than 40 ORs, amounting to a total of 112 workstations.
Results: It was possible to analyze the usage and the utilization of ORs at the hospital for each day of the year since 1997. In addition, annual and monthly evaluations are made available. It is possible to scrutinize data of OR usage from different points of view: queries on the usage of an individual OR, the usage of ORs on certain days or the usage of ORs by a certain surgical subspecialty may be formulated. These data has been used repeatedly in our hospital for decision making in OR management and planning. Conclusions: In assessing the results of our study, it should be considered that the system used is not a specialized OR management tool. Despite these restrictions, the system contains data which can be used for an exact and relevant presentation of OR utilization

Abstract
Abstract:The influence of methods for record keeping on the documentation of vital signs was assessed for the Anesthesia Information Management System (AIMS) NarkoData. We compared manually entered blood-pressure readings with automatically collected data. These data were stored in a database and subsequently evaluated and analyzed. The data sets were split into two groups, ”manual“ and ”automatic“. We evaluated the effect of automatic data collection on the incidence of corrected data, data validity and data variation. Blood-pressure readings of 37,726 data sets were analyzed. We could assess that the method of documentation did influence the data quality. It could not be assessed whether the incorrectness of data during automatic data gathering was caused by artefacts or by the anesthesiologist.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) has a worse prognosis than HF with preserved EF (HFpEF). The study aimed to evaluate whether different comorbidity profiles of HFrEF- and HFpEF-patients or HF-specific mechanisms contribute to a greater extent to this difference. METHODS We linked data from two health insurances to data from a cardiology clinic hospital information system. Patients with a hospitalization with HF in 2005-2011, categorized as HFrEF (EF < 45%) or HFpEF (EF ≥ 45%), were propensity score (PS) matched to controls without HF on comorbidites and medication to assure similar comorbidity profiles of patients and their respective controls. The balance of the covariates in patients and controls was compared via the standardized difference (SDiff). Age-standardized 1-year mortality rates (MR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. RESULTS 777 HFrEF-patients (1135 HFpEF-patients) were PS-matched to 3446 (4832) controls. Balance between patients and controls was largely achieved with a SDiff < 0.1 on most variables considered. The age-standardized 1-year MRs per 1000 persons in HFrEF-patients and controls were 267.8 (95% CI 175.9-359.8) and 86.1 (95% CI 70.0-102.3). MRs in HFpEF-patients and controls were 166.2 (95% CI 101.5-230.9) and 61.5 (95% CI 52.9-70.1). Thus, differences in MRs between patients and their controls were higher for HFrEF (181.7) than for HFpEF (104.7). CONCLUSIONS Given the similar comorbidity profiles between HF-patients and controls, the higher difference in mortality rates between HFrEF-patients and controls points more to HF-specific mechanisms for these patients, whereas for HFpEF-patients a higher contribution of comorbidity is suggested by our results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with coronary heart disease undergo cardiac rehabilitation in order to reduce their cardiovascular risk factors. Often, however, the benefit of rehabilitation is lost over time. It is unclear whether this happens in the same way to men and women. We studied whether the setting of gender-specific behavior goals with an agreement between the doctor and the patient at the end of rehabilitation can prolong its positive effects. METHODS This study was performed with a mixed-method design. It consisted of qualitative interviews and group discussions with patients, doctors and other treating personnel, and researchers, as well as a quantitative, randomized, controlled intervention trial in which data were acquired at four time points (the beginning and end of rehabilitation and then 6 and 12 months later). 545 patients, 262 of them women (48.1%), were included. The patients were assigned to a goal checking group (n = 132), a goal setting group (n = 143), and a control group (n = 270). The primary endpoints were health-related behavior (exercise, diet, tobacco consumption), subjective state of health, and medication adherence. The secondary endpoints included physiological protection and risk factors such as blood pressure, cholesterol (HDL, LDL, and total), blood sugar, HbA1c, and body-mass index. RESULTS The intervention had no demonstrable effect on the primary or secondary endpoints. The percentage of smokers declined to a similar extent in all groups from the beginning of rehabilitation to 12 months after its end (overall figures: 12.4% to 8.6%, p <0.05). The patients' exercise behavior, diet, and subjective state of health also improved over the entire course of the study. Women had a healthier diet than men. Subgroup analyses indicated a possible effect of the intervention on exercise behavior in women who were employed and in men who were not (p<0.01). CONCLUSION The efficacy of goal setting was not demonstrated. Therefore, no indication for its routine provision can be derived from the study results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND On July 5, 2011, France introduced a law permitting the involuntary admission of patients considered to be in "imminent danger" into psychiatric care without the consent of the family. This is known as "admission en soins psychiatriques pour péril imminent"(ASPPI). ASPPI authorizes all physicians to hospitalize a patient without his or her consent nor the consent of a third party. This differs from previous measures as only one certificate is needed. The law also requires involuntarily admitted patients to present themselves before a judge specialized in Liberties and Detentions (juge des libertés et des détentions), 12 days following their admission. Although there has been an increase in the number of ASPPI admissions when compared to other types of involuntary admission, patients admitted by ASPPI have been hospitalized for a shorter time than others. Some authors, however, have pointed out that decision criteria are frequently interpreted in a loose manner by physicians. This study was conducted at Sainte Anne hospital in Paris. OBJECTIVE This study tried to determine if there were different clinical and non-clinical characteristics associated with the length of hospitalization under ASPPI. METHODS This study analyzed all administrative files for patients admitted under ASPPI from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015. These files contained the medical certificates and the court orders. The sample was split into two groups: patients hospitalized for a shorter stay and who did not present themselves to the judge and patients hospitalized for a longer stay and who did present themselves to the judge. The certificates were analyzed with a criteria grid, which includes clinical and non-clinical items. Clinical items were taken from the French High Authority of Health (Haute Autorité de Santé) 2005 recommendations. These include suicidal risk, risk to others, drug abuse, delusions or hallucinations, mood disorder and lack of selfcare. Non-clinical items include other information found in the certificate and sociodemographic information found in the administrative file. RESULTS Among the 250 certificates analyzed, 172 (68.8%) were associated with a long stay and 78 (31.2%) with a short stay. A bivariate analysis found no significant differences between the two groups for non-clinical characteristics and for drug abuse and mood disorder. When no suicidal risk was present, the stay was short in 21% of the certificates and long for 79%. When a suicidal risk was present the stay was short in 43% of the certificates and long for 57% (P=0.0002). When a risk to others was present the stay was short for 19% of the certificates and long for 81% (P=0.003). When delusions and hallucinations were present the stay was short in 15% of the certificates and long in 85 % (P=5×10e-14). When a lack of selfcare was present the stay was short in 10% of the certificates and long for 90% (P=0.01). CONCLUSION This study identified two types of situations linked with the length of hospitalization for patients under ASPPI. In one situation, associated with a longer stay, we found acute psychiatric disorders exhibited by more delusions, hallucinations, drug abuse, and lack of selfcare. In the second situation, associated with a shorter stay, this study found more episodic situations with suicidal risk. This study suggests that some involuntary admissions could be avoided if physicians could monitor episodic situations in appropriate structures. Moreover the criteria grid we used in this study should be validated to further analyze the quality of the certificates in order to lead to more precise recommendations.

Abstract
Objective Investigate a combination of two clinically tested drugs, the NR2B antagonist Radiprodil and the A2A antagonist Tozadenant in the MPTP-treated marmoset model of Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Background In PD, there remains a need for the development of non-dopaminergic drugs to effectively treat the motor symptoms without the induction of L-Dopa-induced motor complications. Methods Clinically relevant doses of Radiprodil and Tozadenant were given both alone and in combination without the addition of L-Dopa, and the antiparkinsonian efficacy of the treatments was assessed in a primate model of PD. Results When compared to the drugs tested alone, the drug combination led to a significant increase of motor activity and an improvement of motor disability in MPTP-treated marmosets. In addition, the motor restoration brought about by the combination was almost completely devoid of dyskinesia. Interestingly, treated primates were not overstimulated, but were able to move normally when motivated by the exploration of novel objects. Conclusion We have demonstrated in a primate model that, the “Radiprodil/Tozadenant” combination significantly improves motor activity, extending previous results obtained in unilaterally lesioned 6-OHDA-rats. The strength of the preclinical data accumulated so far suggests that the use of such an A2A and NR2B antagonist combination could bring significant motor improvement to PD patients, without inducing the motor complications induced by L-Dopa therapy. Although encouraging, these preclinical data need to be confirmed in the clinic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Gait analysis of animal disease models can provide valuable insights into in vivo compound effects and thus help in preclinical drug development. The purpose of this paper is to establish a computational gait analysis approach for the Noldus Catwalk system, in which footprints are automatically captured and stored. METHODS We present a - to our knowledge - first machine learning based approach for the Catwalk system, which comprises a step decomposition, definition and extraction of meaningful features, multivariate step sequence alignment, feature selection, and training of different classifiers (gradient boosting machine, random forest, and elastic net). RESULTS Using animal-wise leave-one-out cross validation we demonstrate that with our method we can reliable separate movement patterns of a putative Parkinson's disease animal model and several control groups. Furthermore, we show that we can predict the time point after and the type of different brain lesions and can even forecast the brain region, where the intervention was applied. We provide an in-depth analysis of the features involved into our classifiers via statistical techniques for model interpretation. CONCLUSION A machine learning method for automated analysis of data from the Noldus Catwalk system was established. SIGNIFICANCE Our works shows the ability of machine learning to discriminate pharmacologically relevant animal groups based on their walking behavior in a multivariate manner. Further interesting aspects of the approach include the ability to learn from past experiments, improve with more data arriving and to make predictions for single animals in future studies.

Abstract
Background Previous studies have shown a high prevalence of failure of passive transfer of immunity (FPT) in Swiss dairy calves. Objectives To investigate risk factors associated with poor colostrum quality and FPT on Swiss dairy farms. Animals Colostrum and serum samples from 373 dam‐calf pairs at 141 farms. Methods The gamma globulin (Gg) concentrations of the dams’ colostrum and the calves’ serum samples were determined by electrophoresis. Potential risk factors were assessed by logistic regression of questionnaire data. Results Prevalence values of 15.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 12.0–19.6%) for low‐quality colostrum (<50 g Gg/L) in cows and 43.5% (95% CI, 38.4–48.8%) for FPT (serum Gg < 10 g/L) in calves were estimated. The main factors associated with low colostrum quality included colostrum leakage before or during parturition and a time lag > 6 hours between parturition and first milking. The results confirm that the occurrence of FPT in calves primarily was influenced by the quality of colostrum, the amount of ingested colostrum, and the time between birth and first feeding. Conclusions and Clinical Importance These results confirm a large potential for improvement in colostrum harvesting and colostrum feeding procedures in the study herds. Control for colostrum leaking intra‐partum, early colostrum milking, and ensuring that the calves ingest a sufficient volume of colostrum within the first hours of life are measures that can be readily implemented by farmers to decrease the incidence of FPT without additional workload.

Abstract
Because of the progressive loss of nigro-striatal dopaminergic terminals in Parkinson's disease (PD), in vivo quantitative imaging of dopamine (DA) containing neurons in animal models of PD is of critical importance in the preclinical evaluation of highly awaited disease-modifying therapies. Among existing methods, the high sensitivity of positron emission tomography (PET) is attractive to achieve that goal. The aim of this study was to perform a quantitative comparison of brain images obtained in 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesioned rats using two dopaminergic PET radiotracers, namely [18 F]fluoro-3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-L-alanine ([18 F]FDOPA) and 6-[18 F]fluoro-L-m-tyrosine ([18 F]FMT). Because the imaging signal is theoretically less contaminated by metabolites, we hypothesized that the latter would show stronger relationship with behavioural and post-mortem measures of striatal dopaminergic deficiency. We used a within-subject design to measure striatal [18 F]FMT and [18 F]FDOPA uptake in eight partially lesioned, eight fully lesioned and ten sham-treated rats. Animals were pretreated with an L-aromatic amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor. A catechol-O-methyl transferase inhibitor was also given before [18 F]FDOPA PET. Quantitative estimates of striatal uptake were computed using conventional graphical Patlak method. Striatal dopaminergic deficiencies were measured with apomorphine-induced rotations and post-mortem striatal DA content. We observed a strong relationship between [18 F]FMT and [18 F]FDOPA estimates of decreased uptake in the denervated striatum using the tissue-derived uptake rate constant Kc . However, only [18 F]FMT Kc succeeded to discriminate between the partial and the full 6-OHDA lesion and correlated well with the post-mortem striatal DA content. This study indicates that the [18 F]FMT could be more sensitive, with respect of [18 F]FDOPA, to investigate DA terminals loss in 6-OHDA rats, and open the way to in vivo L-aromatic amino acid decarboxylase activity targeting in future investigations on progressive PD models.

Abstract
The role of antigens shared between Mycobacteria in in-vivo cross-reactive immune responses in host animals, have been reported to be responsible for reduced BCG vaccination efficacy as well reduced specificity of routine immunological diagnostic tests. This presents with significant disease control challenges in humans and animals. The present review highlights the results of previous studies on the effect of pre-sensitization to environmental mycobacteria on either pathogenic mycobacteria and/or M. bovis BCG, in experimental animals. It also takes an in-depth view into assessing the genetic similarities and relationships between atypical mycobacteria and Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) and how they might explain the immunological imprint of environmental mycobacteria in directing the hosts' immune response upon subsequent exposure to other classes of mycobacteria. The outcome of this review suggests that genetic closeness between particular atypical mycobacteria and MTBC usually indicate a higher level of homology for certain shared protective antigens. This ultimately results in a higher level of cross reactive immune responses as compared with other atypical mycobacteria that are further away genetically. This would explain the different effects of environmental mycobacteria on MTBC that have been reported in the different studies. In other words the direction of the host immune system in response to exposure to MTBC would depend on the type of environmental mycobacteria that was encountered in the initial exposure. We also explain these mycobacterial interactions in the context of the phenomenon of "Original Mycobacterial Sin". The effects of these inevitable mycobacterial interactions on field diagnosis and control by vaccination and how to circumvent them are discussed.

Abstract
Several species of atypical mycobacteria have been isolated from wild and captive amphibians. In captive anurans, cutaneous and visceral mycobacteriosis are common and can result in significant mortality, particularly when animals are immunocompromised. Mycobacterial arthritis and synovitis are reported rarely in amphibians. We describe 20 cases in painted reed frogs (Hyperolius marmoratus), which presented with cachexia, limb paresis or paralysis or 'spindly leg syndrome'. Histopathology revealed multifocal histiocytic to granulomatous synovitis affecting appendicular, rib or spinal intervertebral joints. Periarticular granulomata, granulomatous cellulitis and skeletal muscle atrophy, necrosis and degeneration were also present. In one case, granulomatous spinal osteomyelitis was recorded. Ziehl-Neelsen stains showed large numbers of acid-fast bacteria in macrophages and histiocytes. The mycobacterial isolates obtained from culture were identified as members of the Mycobacterium chelonae complex (either M. chelonae or Mycobacterium abscessus). This was confirmed by 5'-16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) sequencing. In 17 cases mycobacterial lesions were present only in the joints and skeleton, highlighting the importance of not ruling out mycobacterial infection on the basis of absence of cutaneous or visceral lesions.

Abstract
Background Ethnic variations in the (sero)prevalence of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and HPV related diseases have been observed previously. We explored if high-risk HPV (hrHPV) seropositivity indeed differs among 6 ethnic groups in Amsterdam the Netherlands and assessed if hrHPV seroprevalence is higher among women than men within each ethnic group, both after adjustment for confounders. Methods From the multi-ethnic HEalthy Life In an Urban Setting (HELIUS) study in Amsterdam (the Netherlands) we randomly selected 4637 men and women aged 18–44 years with a Dutch, South-Asian Surinamese, African Surinamese, Ghanaian, Moroccan, or Turkish ethnicity. Blood samples were tested for HPV-16,−18,−31,−33,−45,−52, and −58 antibodies using a validated Luminex-based multiplex serology assay. We assessed the association of both ethnicity and gender with hrHPV seropositivity using logistic regression models with generalised estimating equations. Results The hrHPV seroprevalence in Dutch, South-Asian Surinamese, African Surinamese, Ghanaian, Moroccan, and Turkish participants was 18%, 12%, 23%, 19%, 17%, and 15% in men, and 30%, 22%, 34%, 31%, 14%, and 15% in women, respectively. HrHPV seroprevalence of non-Dutch men did not differ significantly from Dutch men. HrHPV seroprevalence was significantly higher among African Surinamese women, and significantly lower among Moroccan and Turkish women when compared to Dutch women. These differences were not significant anymore after adjustment for demographic, health, and sexual behavioural differences between ethnicities. HrHPV seroprevalence varied by age, age of sexual debut, and lifetime sexual partners among women but not among men. Seroprevalence of hrHPV was higher among women than among men, except in the Turkish group. Conclusion Among women hrHPV seroprevalence differed by ethnicity, yet among men no pronounced differences were observed across ethnicities. Women have a higher hrHPV seroprevalence than men, except in the Turkish group. Seroprevalence of hrHPV varies by ethnicity among women in Amsterdam. Among men no pronounced differences in hrHPV seroprevalence by ethnicity are observed. Differences by ethnicity in women are attributable to differences in sexual behaviour. HPV serology is not a useful indicator of sexual exposure among heterosexual men.

Abstract
Swallowing disorders in the elderly. Swallowing disorders are a common problem in the elderly with severe consequences in multiple cases. At the current time these disorders are poorly understood and under-diagnosed. Although physiological aging is accompanied by changes in the process of swallowing resulting in an increase of the occurrence of aspiration, these changes are not responsible for a swallowing disorder. There are multiple aetiologies specific for the elderly and, in some cases, may be treatable when systematic screening is imposed. This one is based on medical history and a physical examination. Then the diagnosis can be confirmed with the videofluoroscopy, the gold standard for swallowing disorders. The management of these disorders is based on preventive measures, education of the patient, his family and of health care professionals and rehabilitation.

Abstract
Immunophenotypic analysis was performed in 53 cases of B chronic lymphocytic leukemia using a large panel of monoclonal antibodies recognizing B, T, activation and myeloid antigens. Our results showed four patterns of reactivity: (a) several molecules were constantly expressed: CD19, CD20, CD24, CD37, HLA-DR, mu heavy chain, CD5, CD23, B5, CD32; (b) one antigen, CD11b, was found in 50 to 80% of the cases; (c) some markers were detected in less than 50% of the cases: CD25, CD38, CD71, CD11a, c, CD14b-c; (d) CD2 and CD16 were never detected. From these results, a phenotypic classification in three groups has been proposed and these groups were correlated with the progression of the disease, mainly with the lymphocyte doubling time of less than one year. We hypothesized that the leukemia cells could be at various stages of differentiation and/or activation according to their expression of activation and myeloid markers.

Abstract
Historical evidence of tuberculosis (TB) affecting primarily captive rhinoceroses dates back almost two centuries. Although the causative Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC) species has not been determined in many cases, especially for those that occurred before bacterial culture techniques were available, the spectrum of documented reports illustrates the importance of TB as cause of morbidity and mortality in different rhinoceros species across continents. In more recent years, sporadic suspected or confirmed cases of TB caused by Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) have been reported in semi-free or free-ranging rhinoceroses in South Africa. However, the true risk TB may pose to the health and conservation of rhinoceros populations in the country's large conservation areas where M. bovis is endemic, which is unknown. Underlying the current knowledge gap is the lack of diagnostic tools available to detect infection in living animals. As documented in other wildlife species, TB could establish itself in a rhinoceros population but remain unrecognized for decades with detrimental implications for wildlife conservation at large and should such animals be moved to uninfected areas or facilities. This paper reviews the current state of knowledge regarding TB in rhinoceros including critical gaps that need to be addressed to effectively assess the threat that this disease may present to rhinoceros.

Abstract
An experimental setup designed for in situ electrical resistance measurement during thin film growth is described. The custom-built sample holder with a four-point probe arrangement can be loaded into a high-vacuum magnetron sputter-deposition chamber through a load-lock transfer system, allowing measurements on series of samples without venting the main chamber. Electrical contact is ensured with circular copper tracks inserted in a Teflon plate on a mounting holder station inside the deposition chamber. This configuration creates the possibility to measure thickness-dependent electrical resistance changes with sub-monolayer resolution and is compatible with use of sample rotation during growth. Examples are presented for metallic films with high adatom mobility growing in a Volmer-Weber mode (Ag and Pd) as well as for refractory metal (Mo) with low adatom mobility. Evidence for an amorphous-to-crystalline phase transition at a film thickness of 2.6 nm is reported during growth of Mo on an amorphous Si underlayer, supporting previous findings based on in situ wafer curvature measurements.

Abstract
Phytophthora root and stem rot, caused by Phytophthora sojae, is an economically important disease of soybean throughout the Midwestern United States. This disease has been successfully managed with resistance (Rps) genes; however, pathogen populations throughout the Midwest have developed virulence to many Rps genes, including those that have not been deployed. To gain a better understanding of the processes that influence P. sojae evolution, the population genetic structure was compared among populations using one isolate collected from 17, 33, and 20 fields in Iowa, Ohio, and South Dakota, respectively, as well as multiple isolates from individual fields in Iowa, Ohio, and Missouri. Genotypic diversity was measured using 21 polymorphic microsatellite (simple-sequence repeat) markers. and pathotype diversity using 15 soybean differentials. For all but three of the populations with low sample size, there was a high level of pathotype diversity and a low to moderate level of genotypic diversity among the populations for both comparisons between states and within-field variation. None of the Rps-gene differentials were resistant to all of the isolates. There were 103 unique multilocus genotypes identified in this study and only 2 were identified from the same field. Although no clones were identified in more than one field, pairwise FST indicated that some gene flow within neighboring fields does occur but not across the region, including fields from neighboring states. These results suggest that there is a strong probability that each state may have their own or several regional populations, as well as provide further evidence of high diversity within this homothallic pathogen which may be due, in part, to limited gene flow, mutation, or outcrossing, and this likely affects the success of deployment of resistance.
