Soins primaires et pathologie virale émergente : connaissances et pratiques de médecins généralistes et de leurs patients concernant la méningo-encéphalite à tique (TBE) en Alsace
Médecine généraleL’encéphalite à tiques (TBE) est une maladie infectieuse virale transmise par les tiques, potentiellement sévère, pouvant être à l’origine de séquelles neurologiques graves. Bien qu’aucun traitement curatif ne soit disponible, il existe une vaccination efficace. L’objectif de ce travail, motivé par l’émergence récente de cette maladie infectieuse dans notre région a été d’évaluer les connaissances des patients et médecins exposés à cette « nouvelle » maladie, ainsi que d’évaluer le rôle de ces connaissances dans les facilités de mise en place de nouvelles politiques vaccinales. Nous avons inclus dans un premier temps un échantillon de 49 patients, de manière aléatoire sur deux secteurs, Strasbourg et Mutzig, le recueil des données se faisant de manière standardisée à l’aide d’un questionnaire. Dans un second temps, nous avons interrogé 106 médecins généralistes, provenant de l’ensemble de la région Grand Est, à l’aide d’un questionnaire informatisé. Seize pourcents des patients interrogés disaient connaître la TBE. Après avoir reçu une information sur la maladie, 51 % des patients interrogés étaient favorables à une obligation de vaccination chez les professionnels exposés. Cinquante-sept pourcents des praticiens interrogés disaient connaître la TBE. Avant la dispensation d’une information de rappel sur la maladie, 62 % des praticiens proposaient la vaccination, ils étaient 67 % après ce rappel. Soixante et un pourcent des praticiens interrogés étaient favorables à une obligation vaccinale chez les professionnels exposés après cette information de rappel. La TBE reste une maladie largement méconnue de la population générale. Elle était cependant connue par la majorité des médecins généraliste, exerçant en Alsace, interrogés. La délivrance d’une information concernant la maladie, permettait de faire adhérer une très large partie des sujets interrogés, patients comme praticiens, à la possibilité d’une recommandation vaccinale qui serait émise envers les sujets exposés professionnellement ou dans le cadre des loisirs.Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a potentially severe viral infectious disease transmitted by ticks, which can cause serious neurological sequelae. Although no curative treatment is available, there is an effective vaccination. The objective of this work, motivated by the recent emergence of this infectious disease in our region, was to assess the knowledge of patients and doctors exposed to this "new" disease, as well as to assess the role of this knowledge in the facilities for implementing new vaccine policies. We initially included a sample of 49 patients, randomly in two sectors, Strasbourg and Mutzig, the data collection being done in a standardized way using a questionnaire. In the second phase, we interviewed 106 general practitioners, from across the Grand Est region, using a computerized questionnaire. Sixteen percent of the patients surveyed said they knew about TBE. After having received information about the disease, 51% of the patients questioned were in favor of compulsory vaccination among exposed professionals. Fifty-seven percent of practitioners interviewed said they were aware of TBE. Before the provision of recall information on the disease, 62% of practitioners offered vaccination, they were 67% after this recall. Sixty-one percent of the practitioners questioned were in favor of a vaccination obligation among the professionals exposed after this recall information. TBE remains a largely unknown disease of the general population. However, it was known by the majority of general practitioners, practicing in Alsace, interviewed. The provision of information concerning the disease made it possible to make a very large part of the subjects interviewed, patients and practitioners, adhere to the possibility of a vaccination recommendation which would be issued to subjects exposed professionally or in the context of leisure
Alf Nilsen-Børsskog — The Author Chosen by the Language
This article discusses Alf Nilsen-Børsskog’s four-volume series of novels Elämän jatko [Continuation of life, 2004–2015], seen as the first literary works treating the Kven culture from a native perspective. Nilsen-Børsskog’s novels are analysed as constituting a “counterstory”, a term coined in the postcolonial cultural research paradigm to refer to self-representation. The Kvens have been considered a national minority in Norway since 1999, and their language has been an official minority language since 2005. The present author scrutinizes how Nilsen-Børsskog’s work differs from previous literary descriptions of this minority, often marked by the frequent use of stereotypes of the Kven language and culture

Une nouvelle approche de l’immunité innée lors de la toxoplasmose oculaire : le rôle méconnu des interférons de type I et III
Ocular toxoplasmosis (TO) is an inflammatory condition of the eye caused by infection with the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii. The aim of this study was to explore the role of interferon-β (type I) and IFNs-λ (type III) during TO. Using in vitro models of human retinal cultures, we studied the expression of different cytokines, parasitic proliferation and permeability of retinal epithelium cell monolayers (RPEC) in response to stimulation by type I & III IFNs and infection. We show that most of the cells tested are reactive to stimulation by type I and type III IFNs, that infection with T. gondii induces the expression of type I and type III IFNs, that stimulation of RPEC by type I IFNs limits parasitic proliferation during the infection of these cells by T. gondii and that the IFNs-λ prevent the disjunction of the RPEC following infection by T. gondii.La toxoplasmose oculaire (TO) est une affection inflammatoire de l’œil consécutive à l’infection par le parasite protozoaire Toxoplasma gondii.

À l’aide de modèles in vitro de cultures rétiniennes humaines nous avons étudié l’expression de différentes cytokines, la prolifération parasitaire et la perméabilité de monocouches de cellules d’épithélium rétinien (RPEC) en réponse à la stimulation par des IFNs de type I et III et à l’infection. Nous montrons que la plupart des cellules testées sont réactives à la stimulation par des IFNs de type I et de type III, que l’infection par T. gondii induit l’expression d’IFNs de type I et de type III, que la stimulation de RPEC par des IFNs de type I limite la prolifération parasitaire lors de l’infection de ces cellules par T. gondii et que les IFNs-λ préviennent la disjonction des RPEC consécutive à l’infection par T. gondii

Johann Siegmund Valentin Popowitsch (Janez Žiga Valentin Popovič), Vocabula Austriaca et Stiriaca 1-2 (Frankfurt am Main 2004)
The Austrian dictionary composed by the Slovenian scho-lar Janez Žiga Valentin Popovič (1705-1774) in the third quarter of the 18th century was only published in 2004, and edited by Richard Reutner, who wrote an extensive introduction to it. The dictionary comprises many language-geographical data for the German language, excellent explanations and many comparisons with much information provided regarding Popovic's mother tongue. The author broad horizon is admirable, especially with regard to the German language area and the linguistic literature of that time.Avstrijski slovar, ki ga je v tretji četrtini 18. stoletja sestavil slovenski učenjak Janez Žiga Valentin Popovič (1705-1774), je izšel šele leta 2004 v uredništvu Richarda Reutnerja, kije k njemu napisal obsežen uvod. Slovar vsebuje mnogo jezikovnogeografskih podatkov za nemščino, odlične razlage in marsikaj primerjalnega, veliko pa se najde tudi v zvezi s Popovičevo materinščino. Občudovanja vredna je avtorjeva razgledanost predvsem po nemškem jezikoslovnem prostoru in po takratni jezikoslovni literaturi
Valentin N. Volóchinov: um filósofo da ciência da linguagem
This text address the work of Russian scholar Valentin N. Vološinov, author of the book Marxism and the Philosophy of Language. The objective is to demonstrate a set of characteristics that place Vološinov as a participant in the critique of science movement, which had its epicenter in Germany, between the years 1840 and 1900. To this end, in addition to a general reflection, which recovers the meaning of the term “criticism” most present in the academic environment of the time, this text considers two points of the much mentioned – and, apparently, somewhat misunderstood – opposition of the Russian thinker to the linguistics of Ferdinand de Saussure, as this linguistics is presented in the Course in General Linguistics. Finally, by way of provocation, this text outlines a few words about the proximity between the epistemological works of Valentin N. Vološinov and Wilhelm Dilthey.Este texto aborda la obra del estudioso ruso Valentin N. Voloshinov, autor de la obra Marxismo y filosofía del lenguaje.

Dal genere all'allegoria: concerti di Valentin de Boulogne nei disegni e nelle stampe di traduzione
La studiosa, muovendo dall’analisi di un dipinto di Leandro Bassano, conosciuto attraverso una stampa di fine Settecento, sottolinea i collegamenti tra la figurazione veneta del concerto e il linguaggio utilizzato nei quadri musicali da Caravaggio e dai suoi seguaci.
I seguaci della manfrediana methodus usavano descrivere i momenti musicali inserendoli nell’atmosfera scura delle taverne e dei vari ritrovi mondani. Gli strumenti musicali, raffigurati in queste scene si ricollegano ad una complessa simbologia. Gradualmente il concerto dipinto assume significati reconditi che travalicano l’apparente consesso di musicisti: ora i concetti di armonia e di musica si fondono nella definizione figurativa del concerto allegorico.
Valentin de Boulogne non tardò a farsi la nomea di raffinato esecutore di composizioni di genere, in particolare a carattere musicale, successivamente tradotte a stampa. Molti motivi raffigurati, in un suggestivo schema di riflessi, appaiono all’interno delle altre scene di concerti e riunioni varie realizzate dal pittore, ove le espressioni naturalistiche si confondono con gli elementi simbolici.
Alla luce delle osservazioni e dei dati riferiti in questo studio, si può avanzare l’idea che la scena allegorica ambientata in taverna sia una delle principali espressioni della tradizione manfrediana, particolarmente nelle declinazioni di Valentin.
Infine si proposne l'attribuzione al frnacese di un disegno rintracciato dall’autrice, e tradizionalmente attribuito a Rutilio Manetti; si aprono interessanti quesiti, costituendo un inedito tassello nella storia del dipinto di Valentin de Boulogne Concerto a quattro personaggi e un bevitore (New York in collezione privata, 1626).The author analyses a painting by Leandro bassano, through a print of the late eighteenth century, and empahsizes the connections between the figuration used in Venetian concert painting and the language applied in the musical paintings by Caravaggio a nd his followers.
Finally the analysis of a drawing found by the author, and tradinally attributed to Rutilio Manetti, opens up interesting questions in regard to the history of the paioonting Concert with Characteres and a Drinker by Valentin de Boulogne, now in private collection in New York
