[Problems encountered by hospital pharmacists with information systems: Analysis of exchanges within social networks].

Objective: The development of information systems in French hospitals is mandatory. The aim of this work was to analyze the content of exchanges carried out within social networks, dealing with problems encountered with hospital pharmacies information systems.

Methods: Messages exchanged via the mailing list of the Association pour le Digital et l'Information en Pharmacie and abstracts of communications presented at hospital pharmacists trade union congresses were analyzed.

Loads of trematodes: discovering hidden diversity of paramphistomoids in Kenyan ruminants.

Paramphistomoids are ubiquitous and widespread digeneans that infect a diverse range of definitive hosts, being particularly speciose in ruminants. We collected adult worms from cattle, goats and sheep from slaughterhouses, and cercariae from freshwater snails from ten localities in Central and West Kenya. We sequenced cox1 (690 bp) and internal transcribed region 2 (ITS2) (385 bp) genes from a small piece of 79 different adult worms and stained and mounted the remaining worm bodies for comparisons with available descriptions.

[Compliance to the antibiotic committee guidelines in Tourcoing Hospital].

Aims Of The Study: We evaluated the compliance to the antibiotic committee guidelines of Tourcoing Hospital.

Methods: A national nosocomial infections prevalence study was conducted in June 2006. We collected additional data on the name and indication of prescribed antibiotics compared to recommended drugs in our therapeutic guidelines.

Ultradian rhythms of alternating cerebral hemispheric EEG dominance are coupled to rapid eye movement and non-rapid eye movement stage 4 sleep in humans.

Objective: To replicate the left minus right (L-R) hemisphere EEG power shifts coupled to rapid eye movement (REM) and non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep observed in 1972 by Goldstein (Physiol Behav (1972) 811), and to characterize the L-R EEG power spectra for total EEG, delta, theta, alpha and beta bands.Background: Ultradian alternating cerebral hemispheric dominance rhythms are observed using EEG during both waking and sleep, and with waking cognition. The question of whether this cerebral rhythm is coupled to the REM-NREM sleep cycle and the basic rest-activity cycle (BRAC) deserves attention.
