Magnetic cage and rope as the key for solar eruptions.

Solar flares are spectacular coronal events that release large amounts of energy. They are classified as either eruptive or confined, depending on whether they are associated with a coronal mass ejection. Two types of model have been developed to identify the mechanism that triggers confined flares, although it has hitherto not been possible to decide between them because the magnetic field at the origin of the flares could not be determined with the required accuracy.

[Acute cough in infants: impact on families and pharmacists of contraindications of the Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé (ANSM)].

Context And Objective: Although commonplace and usually not serious, acute cough in the context of upper respiratory tract infection is a frequent reason for consultation and generates significant parental anxiety. Parents often request active drug intervention. Following the contraindications in infants of mucolytics, Hélicidine(®), antihistamines, and terpene-based suppositories, issued between 2010 and 2011 by the Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé (ANSM), we wished to assess whether these contraindications were known by parents and applied in pharmacies.

[Acute cough in infants: impact of national guidelines on medical practices in a French department].

Context And Aim: Guidelines have been published regularly since 2010 by the ANSM (the Health Products Safety Agency) advising against antitussive drugs for infants because of their inefficacy and their side effects (convulsions, respiratory congestion). Antihistamines, mucolytics, and terpene-based suppositories have theoretically disappeared from infant pharmacopoeia. We assessed the degree of compliance with these guidelines on the part of health professionals.
