Cultural Countertransference of Young Clinicians Facing a State of Possession: A Cultural Case Study
No full textInternational audiencePossession states are a well-known but a complex clinical aspect of transcultural psy-chiatry. How do young clinicians react when facing such symptoms? Starting from the case of a Somali patient suffering from possession states, treated in a transcul-tural consultation group, we will attempt to explain the cultural countertransference experienced by young clinicians who witnessed a trance. Using the Cultural Formu-lation Interview, we observed an evolution of the countertransference, and therefore an evolution of the symptom’s understanding and of the patient’s condition. This clinical case thus highlights the necessity to take into account the cultural counter-transference of young clinicians within the transcultural consultation
Multi-laboratory compilation of atmospheric carbon dioxide data for the period 1983-2024; obspack_ch4_1_GLOBALVIEWplus_v8.0_2026-01-13
No full textInternational audienceThis product is constructed using the Observation Package (ObsPack) framework [Masarie et al., 2014; www.earth-syst-sci-data.net/6/375/2014/]. The framework is designed to bring together atmospheric greenhouse gas (GHG) observations from a variety of sampling platforms, prepare them with specific applications in mind, and package and distribute them in a self-consistent and well-documented product. ObsPack products are intended to support GHG budget studies and represent a new generation of cooperative value-added GHG data products. This product includes 535 atmospheric methane datasets derived from observations made by 68 laboratories. Data for the period 1983-2024 (where available) are included

Statistical approaches to analyse the combined effect of seven air pollutants and breast cancer risk: a case–control study nested in the French E3N-Generations cohort
No full textInternational audienceThis study provides evidence of a positive association between exposure to a mixture of seven air pollutants and the risk of BC for the two statistical approaches. NO2 contributed most significantly to the overall effect, followed by PCB153 and PM. These findings underscore the necessity of evaluating combined pollutant mixtures in risk assessment, identifying high-risk subpopulations, and designing targeted preventive strategies

Use of illicit substances among patients seeking treatment for alcohol use disorder in France: unveiling the mixed associations with age of onset and gender
No full textInternational audienceAbstract Background and aims Early alcohol onset and its association with current use of illicit substances remains understudied in France, and specific information by gender is lacking. To address this question, this study examined the effects of age of alcohol onset and gender on past month use of illicit substances among patients treated for alcohol use disorder (AUD) in France. Method The data come from the RECAP study, a national database containing detailed information on patients seeking treatment for substance use disorders collected between 2012 and 2022. The sample comprised 643 942 patients with AUD (21% females). We conducted multivariable modified Poisson regressions to identify factors associated with current use of cannabis, opioids and stimulants. Current use of illicit substances was expressed as incidence rate ratios (IRR). Results There has been a decreasing trend of age of alcohol onset over time among patients, particularly notable among women. Women in treatment for AUD were less likely to engage in illicit substance use relative to men. However, an interaction revealed a complementary mechanism: the earlier the age of alcohol onset, the more women with AUD used current opioids or stimulants relative to men. Conclusion Early age of onset remains a key feature in the development of polysubstance use among patients treated for AUD, especially among women. Age of onset should be routinely incorporated into assessment protocols as it may help identify patients with high risks of polysubstance use, which is likely to disrupt their recovery process
Maternal preconception and gestational exposure to a mixture of short half-life food chemicals altered fetoplacental development in a rabbit model, based on a French mother-child cohort
No full textInternational audiencePregnant women from the general population are exposed daily to chemicals that can affect offspring's health. The current study aimed to evaluate the effects of a mixture of chemicals on maternal and fetal health in the rabbit model, which was defined based on associations between urinary concentrations of chemicals in pregnant women from the SEPAGES cohort and offspring outcomes. From the SEPAGES cohort data, a mixture including 3 phenols, 1 paraben and four phthalates was established and used in a rabbit model. Female rabbits were exposed orally from preconception to 28 days post-conception (dpc) to this mixture (PPP exposed group, PPP) or excipient (control group, C) daily at the doses, estimated from the maximum urinary concentrations observed in the cohort. Maternal and fetoplacental phenotype were characterized. Maternal glucose concentration decreased significantly in the PPP group, before mating. At 21 dpc, ultrasound monitoring showed that fetal body length and abdominal perimeter were increased in PPP group compared to C group. At 28 dpc, heart to bodyweight ratio was increased in PPP females compared to C females. At this stage, fetal blood biochemistry showed a decrease in insulin levels, while triglycerides and total protein increased, mostly in PPP males compared to controls. Exposure to a PPP mixture defined from a human mother-child cohort impacted rabbit maternal phenotype and affected fetal health in a sex-specific manner, suggesting that this mixture could induce fetal malprogramming with long-term effects
Estimation of CO <sub>2</sub> fluxes in the cities of Zurich and Paris using the ICON-ART CTDAS inverse modelling framework
No full textInternational audienceAbstract. Observation-based estimation of urban CO2 emissions can help cities track their pathway to net zero emissions, a goal many cities worldwide have adopted. While mesoscale atmospheric transport models are an effective component in inversion systems estimating country-level emissions, their use in urban-scale inversions presents a significant challenge. Here, we present one-year flux inversion results with the mesoscale ICON-ART atmospheric transport model for two cities with contrasting size and topographic complexity: Zurich and Paris. Inversions were performed with an ensemble square root filter, assimilating observations from a dense rooftop CO2 sensor network in Zurich and from a tall tower network in Paris. The inversion framework optimized gridded anthropogenic and biospheric fluxes, along with background mole fractions from eight inflow regions. Prior anthropogenic emissions were based on detailed inventories provided by local authorities. In Zurich, the inversion resulted in a posterior annual anthropogenic emission of 1012.3±38.8 kt yr−1, representing approximately a 30 % reduction compared to the prior, with the most significant decreases during winter periods of elevated ambient temperatures. In contrast, the posterior fluxes in Paris remained close to the prior, with an annual emission of 3580.0±101.9 kt yr−1, which is 7 % higher than the prior. This comparison highlights the influence of city-specific factors – such as topography, city size, and observational network – on the inversion system performance. Furthermore, our findings demonstrate the potential of mesoscale models to refine urban emission estimates, offering valuable insights for policymakers and researchers working to improve emission inventories and advance urban climate strategies
