Legal aspects of personal health monitoring.

Personal health monitoring (PHM) can be defined as comprising all technical systems, processing, collecting, and storing of data linked to a person. PHM involves several legal issues that are described in this paper. This article analyses firstly the short term actions that are needed at the European level to allow personal health monitoring in respect of the interests and rights of patients such as the need to have more harmonised medical liability rules at the EU level.

Indoor fattening of lambs raised on pasture: 2. Influence of stall finishing duration on triglyceride and phospholipid fatty acids in the longissimus thoracis muscle.

Twenty-four male Ile-de-France lambs (six blocks of homologous lambs) were used to study the effect of four feeding systems on muscle triglyceride (TG) and phospholipid (PL) fatty acids (FA) from the longissimus thoracis (LT): raised and finished on cool season grasses (G), raised on the same grasses and stall-finished, indoors, on concentrates and hay, respectively, for 22 (GSS) and 41 days (GSL), and stall-feeding, indoors, on concentrate and hay during both growing and finishing periods (S). In TG, similar decreases (P<0.05) of proportions of linolenic acid were observed after changing from grass feeding to stall feeding (GSS and GSL), and a decrease (P<0.

Indoor fattening of lambs raised on pasture. Part 1: Influence of stall finishing duration on lipid classes and fatty acids in the longissimus thoracis muscle.

Forty male Ile-de-France lambs (10 blocks of 4 homologous lambs) were used to study the effects of four feeding systems on muscle fatty acids (FA): raising and finishing on cool-season grasses (G), raising on the same grasses and stall-finishing, indoors, on concentrates and hay, respectively, for 22 (GSS) or 41 days (GSL), and stall-feeding indoors on concentrates and hay during both growing and finishing periods (S). Twenty-four lambs only (6 blocks) were retained for comparison of growth performances, lipid content in the longissimus thoracis muscle (LT) and their FA composition according to treatment. The 16 other lambs (4 blocks) were removed from the comparison, due to a large spread in the growth of the lambs towards the end of the trial.
