Ce chapitre d’ouvrage collectif offre une mise en perspective du travail de A.D. Smith qui a été largement commenté aux États-Unis pour son approche documentaire. Son talent d’actrice protéiforme l’a rendu très célèbre et a permis la d’une version télévisée de certains de ses spectacles. L’article, qui conclut cet ouvrage, démontre la radicalité de...

BackgroundHealth professionals working with older persons are not sufficiently aware of the sensory and functional difficulties experienced by older patients. Innovative educational activities, such as the aging-simulation experience, can facilitate this awareness. This study describes the effects of an aging-simulation experience on health profess...

We leveraged the largely untapped resource of electronic health record data to address critical clinical and epidemiological questions about Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). To do this, we formed an international consortium (4CE) of 96 hospitals across five countries (www.covidclinical.net). Contributors utilized the Informatics for Integrating...

BackgroundMany patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are women. Exploring mechanisms underlying the sex differences may improve our understanding of the pathophysiology of HFpEF. Studies focusing on sex differences in circulating proteins in HFpEF patients are scarce.MethodsA total of 415 proteins were analyzed in 392...

SARS-CoV-2 has caused a global pandemic unprecedented in size, spread, severity, and mortality. The influx of patients with severe or life-threatening disease means that in some cases, the available medical resources are not sufficient to meet the needs of all patients. Hence, healthcare providers may be forced to make difficult choices about which...
In [3] a space{time domain decomposition method was proposed for two-phase ow in a porous medium composed of two different rock types, so that the capillary pressure field is discontinuous at the interface between the rocks. For this nonlinear and degenerate parabolic problem, with nonlinear and discontinuous transmission conditions on the interfac...

Set visualization is a well-known task in information visualization. In biology, it is used for comparing visually sets of genes or proteins, typically using Venn diagrams. However, limitations of the Venn diagram are well-known: they are limited to 6 sets and difficult to read above 4. Many other set visualization techniques have been proposed, bu...
Let $m_1 \geq m_2 \geq 2$ be integers. We consider subsets of the product symbolic sequence space $(\{0,\cdots,m_1-1\} \times \{0,\cdots,m_2-1\})^{\mathbb{N}^*}$ that are invariant under the action of the semigroup of multiplicative integers. These sets are defined following Kenyon, Peres and Solomyak and using a fixed integer $q \geq 2$. We comput...
