This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les migrants d'Afrique subsaharienne paient un lourd tribut au VIH/sida et à l'hépatite B en France, puisqu'ils représentaient en 2013 31% des découvertes de séropositivité au VIH et 40% des patients pris en charge pour une hépatite B chronique. Cette thèse a pour objectif de comprendre l'impact de la maladie dans des vies déjà marquées par la migration, dans une dans une perspective holistique, c'est-à-dire qui prend en compte les différents éléments structurants de la trajectoire, qu'ils soient résidentiels (dont la migration), familiaux, professionnels, administratifs etc. L'enquête Parcours a permis de collecter de façon quantitative les histoires de vie de 2468 migrants subsahariens en Ile-de-France, 926 vivant avec le VIH, 779 vivant avec une hépatite B (non infectés par le VIH) et 763 n'ayant aucune de ces infections. Les parcours de vie de ces personnes ont été recueillis au moyen d'un questionnaire biographique qui renseigne les éléments structurants de la trajectoire de vie (professionnels, familiaux, conjugaux, résidentiels, etc...). Pour analyser ces trajectoires, les méthodes classiques d'analyse de survie ont été mobilisées, ainsi que les méthodes d'analyse de séquence du type Optimal Matching. Les trajectoires d'installation des migrants en France, qu'ils soient ou non atteints par le VIH ou l'hépatite B, ont été marquées par une grande insécurité dans les premières années, insécurité en termes de logement, de titres de séjour et d'emploi qui a duré six ans en médiane. Bien souvent, l'annonce de la maladie a précisément eu lieu à ce moment de l'arrivée en France. La migration elle-même a eu un impact majeur sur les trajectoires de vie des personnes sur le plan familial et professionnel. L'annonce d'une hépatite B chronique n'a elle pas d'effet sur les trajectoire de vie, tandis que le VIH entraîne une détérioration importante du bien-être, sans pour autant influer sur les trajectoires de couple ou d'emploi. Enfin, les personnes ayant obtenu un titre de séjour pour soins sont discriminées dans leur accès à la carte de résident ou la nationalité française.

Book excerpt: Menée de 2012 à 2013 par un groupe de chercheurs en sciences sociales, l'enquête PARCOURS retrace le parcours de migration et d'installation d'immigrés africains en considérant la façon dont ces parcours s'articulent à l'infection VIH et plus largement à la prise en charge de la santé. En adoptant un prisme biographique assumé, l'étude suit au plus près cette pluralité d'itinéraires qui se croisent et parfois se combinent à l'encontre des différentes expressions de la précarité qu'ils subissent. Pourquoi et comment l'infection VIH percute-t-elle la vie des immigrés d'Afrique subsaharienne en France ? Première étude quantitative d'ampleur menée par des chercheurs et des associations au sein de cette population particulièrement touchée par le virus, l'enquête ANRS Parcours a retracé en 2012-2013 les trajectoires migratoires, sociales, administratives et de santé de ces immigrés. Elle met en relief les difficultés d'installation, les bouleversements familiaux et professionnels à l'arrivée en France, et leurs conséquences en termes de santé. Plus qu'une recherche en santé publique, Parcours est une étude sur l'immigration en provenance de cette région du monde, une immigration marquée par des années de fragilité administrative et d'insécurité au quotidien. Elle met au jour les facteurs structurels qui pèsent, souvent de façon durable, sur l'installation des immigrés en France et accroissent leurs risques d'être infectés par le VIH une fois sur place. Elle montre aussi l'importance des dispositifs qui mettent en œuvre le principe d'universalité de l'accès aux soins (AME, PASS, associations humanitaires) et la nécessité de les garantir. Car la lutte contre le sida, véritable maladie de la précarité, passe par la réduction des inégalités de santé. Cette recherche a été conduite sous la responsabilité scientifique d'Annabel Desgrées du Loû (IRD), France Lert, Rosemary Dray-Spira et Nathalie Bajos (Inserm) et Nathalie Lydié (Santé publique France). Elle a été financée par l'Agence nationale de la recherche sur le sida et les hépatites virales (ANRS), avec le soutien de la Direction générale de la santé et de l'agence Santé publique France.

It includes more non-infectious disease issues and climate change discussion alongside revised case studies and expanded methodology chapters to draw out implications for practice. Promoting an action-based, solutions-oriented approach, One Health: The Theory and Practice of Integrated Health Approaches highlights the lessons learned for both human and animal health professionals and students.
Download or read book Cattle Priests and Progress in Medicine written by Calvin W. Schwabe and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 1978-05-26 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cattle, Priests, and Progress in Medicine was first published in 1978. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. The author shows that over the centuries many of the most significant breakthroughs in improving humans health have been closely associated with observations and experiments on animals other than man. Because human medical progress has been so dependent on veterinary studies, he urges that schools of veterinary medicine assume a much greater role in the training of persons for research in human medicine. To illuminate the historical link between animals and man in medical progress, Professor Schwabe recounts highlights in the history of medicine from ancient times onward. He describes the early history of man in terms of animal cultures, focusing on the prehistoric Nile Valley, and points to similarities in medical knowledge between present-day "cattle" societies in Northeastern Africa and the ancient people of the Nile. He discusses the comparative healers of ancient Egypt, the comparative foundations of Greek medicine, the Arabic contribution, Sicily and the beginnings of modern medicine, and subsequent developments through the Renaissance .Bringing the history down to modern times, Professor Schwabe emphasizes the role of veterinary medicine in medical research. He outlines specific reforms in the curricula of schools and colleges of veterinary medicine which would provide for the education of medical investigators.

Download or read book Laboratory Disease written by Christoph Gradmann and published by Johns Hopkins University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the nineteenth century, the new field of medical bacteriology identified microorganisms and explained how they spread disease. This book interweaves the history of this discipline and the biography of one of its founders, Nobel Prize–winning German physician Robert Koch (1843–1910). Koch contributed to modern medicine by inventing or improving fundamental techniques such as bacterial staining, solid culture media, mass pure cultures, and the use of animal models. His discoveries, which dominated medical science at the turn of the last century, are epitomized in a set of rules named after him. "Koch's Postulates" are still invoked today in attempts to prove the causal involvement of pathogens in infectious diseases. In a double history, Christoph Gradmann narrates the development of a discipline and the biography of a scientist. Drawing on Koch's extensive laboratory notes, Gradmann details how Koch developed his scientific method and discovered the bacterial causes of anthrax, tuberculosis, and cholera. Koch tried to bring this knowledge to clinical medicine by developing medicines that would specifically target the bacterial pathogens he identified. And Koch’s passion for personal travel developed into a career signature, as he became a pioneer in the study of tropical diseases. A fascinating look into Koch's personality and his experimental work in medical bacteriology, Laboratory Disease reveals both the biographical and the historical roots of our modern understanding of infectious diseases.

Theories such as the New International Division of Labour provided fresh impetus for the discipline as did burgeoning research in women's studies & the environmental crisis necessitated additional approaches. This new collection of essays addresses the former & future role of law in these areas. Written by leading legal scholars, proponents stress the continued relevance & vitality of law in the development process. (AFRICAN DISCOURSE SERIES, 4)
