Book excerpt: Le diabète de type 1 voit son incidence augmenter chez l'enfant depuis quelques décennies sans que l'on puisse précisément expliquer ce qui sous-tend ce phénomène. Sur un terrain génétique de susceptibilité, se greffe des facteurs environnementaux qui déclenchent, accélèrent, ou retardent le processus auto-immun qui aboutit à la destruction des cellules ß des îlots de Langerhans. Ces déterminants environnementaux peuvent être de différentes natures (nutritionnels, infectieux, toxiques...) et le changement de mode de vie des sociétés industrialisées qui s'est opéré depuis la seconde guerre mondiale pourraient contribuer à expliquer l'augmentation de la fréquence de cette maladie. Ce travail tente de répondre à deux objectifs. Il fait le point sur les connaissances actuelles en termes d'épidémiologie et de physiopathologie de cette maladie au travers d'une revue de littérature, reprenant les résultats d'études animales, d'études de cohorte ou encore d'études épidémiologiques comme EURODIAB ou DIAMOND. D'autre part, cet écrit vise à présenter les données du registre régional PEDIAB-LR, qui recense dans le Languedoc-Roussillon tous les nouveaux cas de diabète chez l'enfant depuis l'an 2000. Actuellement le seul en cours sur ce domaine sur le territoire français, ce registre apporte des informations sur l'évolution de l'incidence du diabète chez l'enfant au niveau régional. Il permet également d'apporter des éléments de réflexion sur les caractéritiques épidémiologiues des enfants diabétiques et de tester ainsi les différents hypothèses émises concernant les facteurs de risque de diabète chez l'enfant

Download or read book Simplexity written by Alain Berthoz and published by Odile Jacob. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Simplexity, as I understand it, is the range of solutions living organisms have found, despite the complexity of natural processes, to enable the brain to prepare an action and plan for the consequences of it. These solutions are simplifying principles that enable the processing of information or situations, by taking into account past experience and anticipating the future. They are neither caricatures, shortcuts, or summaries. They are new ways of asking questions, sometimes at the cost of occasional detours, in order to achieve faster, more elegant, more effective actions.” A. B. As Alain Berthoz demonstrates in this profoundly original book, simplicity is never easy; it requires suppressing, selecting, connecting, thinking, in order to then act in the best way possible. And what if we, in turn, are inspired by the living world to process the complexity that surrounds us? Alain Berthoz is professor at the Collège de France where he is co-director of the Laboratoire de physiologie de la perception et de l’action. [Laboratory for the physiology of perception and action]. He is a member of the French Academy of Sciences, and is the author of Le Sens du mouvement [The Brain's Sense of Movement] and La Décision [Emotion and Reason].

Book excerpt: Providing a cutting-edge profile of research progress in this important field of study, Cholinergic Mechanisms: Function and Dysfunction contains a compilation of the proceedings of the Eleventh ISCM, held in St. Moritz, May 2002. Bringing together 250 contributors from 30 countries, the book presents a comprehensive picture of the cholinergic field. It provides a survey of current understanding of molecular, pharmacological, toxicological, behavioral, and clinical aspects of the cholinergic system. This volume offers a state-of-the-art account of progress in the field from the molecule in the test tube through the cell and the synapse, to the organism and the patient.

Book excerpt: Multisensory Perception: From Laboratory to Clinic surveys the current state of knowledge on multisensory processes, synthesizing information from diverse streams of research and defining hypotheses and questions to direct future work. Reflecting the nature of the field, the book is interdisciplinary, comprising the findings and views of writers with diverse backgrounds and varied methods, including psychophysical, neuroanatomical, neurophysiological and neuroimaging approaches. Sections cover basic principles, specific interactions between the senses, the topic of crossmodal correspondences between particular sensory attributes, the related topic of synesthesia, and the clinic. Offers a comprehensive, up-to-date overview of the current state of knowledge on multisensory processes Coverage includes basic principles, specific interactions between the senses, crossmodal correspondences and the clinical aspects of multisensory processes Includes psychophysical, neuroanatomical, neurophysiological and neuroimaging approaches
