Approche de Stewart : ou comment faire du neuf avec du vieux ?
L’interprétation de l’état acidobasique peut se faire par deux approches : classique, centrée sur le bicarbonate, ou moderne ou approche de Stewart, dans laquelle le bicarbonate est considéré comme une variabl...

P4.17: Acute Dietary Sodium Changes is a Physiological Determinant of Aortic Stiffness
Aortic stiffness evaluation is recommended in standard care as hypertension target organ damage. The main determinants of aortic stiffness are age and blood pressure. We aimed to evaluate the impact of short-t...

‘Oil versus fish’ in northern Norway: perspectives of the market, the law, and the citizen
The coastal marine area constitutes one of humanity’s most important food baskets. However, food production must compete with other uses of scarce coastal resources, demanding high-stakes tradeoffs. This paper...

Climate change and biodiversity: a need for ‘reflexive interdisciplinary’
Climate change is today perceived as one of the greatest threats to biodiversity and ecosystem services. This is an important concern for current society, as the deterioration of biodiversity will have dire im...

Is the early-onset torsion dystonia (EOTD) linked to TOR1A gene as frequent as expected in France?
Early onset torsion dystonia are rare movement disorders. Molecular defect is known for only a subgroup, consisting of a unique and recurrent mutation in the TOR1A gene. We undertook a nationwide census of French...

Dark Energy: Nature and Robustness
Supernovae have provided the evidence for the existence of a dominant dark energy component of the Universe. The commonly accepted form of such a component is the quintessence. Here, we show that the possible ...

Cosmology with XMM Sharc Clusters
We present the preliminary results of the Ω project, a large XMM program devoted to observe distant SHARC clusters. For the first time a measurement of the L - T evolution with XMM is presented. We found clear ev...

Homogeneous Cosmological Models
Building cosmological models is a very old human activity. Clearly, it seems that any society has its own representation of both the history and the geography of the world. Therefore, Cosmology is one of the ...

What do the CBR Fluctuations Tell Us?
The detection of the fluctuations in the CMB by COBE has opened a new area of modern cosmology. The angular spectrum of these fluctuations potentially carries a lot of information, allowing for the possibility...

Constraning Ω0 with Sunyaev-Zel’dovich Observations
As the largest virialized systems in the Universe, clusters of galaxies can be used as probes of the cosmological parameters. In fact, the evolution of the number of cluster of galaxies strongly depends on Ω0:...

The Luminosity Function and Mean Density of Galaxies from the ESO Slice Project (ESP) Redshift Survey
An unbiased and detailed characterization of the luminosity function of field galaxies is a basic requirement in many extragalactic problems. Although several determinations of this function are already availa...
