OBJECTIVES: To describe the polymorphism of intestinal ultrasound findings in children with gastrointestinal symptoms of Henoch Schonlein purpura (HSP) and to investigate the clinical relevance of these findings in terms of symptoms and length of hospitalization. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Clinical and ultrasound data from 43 consecutive children with HSP (36 with and 7 without abdominal symptoms) were reviewed. Patients with abdominal symptoms of HSP were divided into 4 groups (0-III) representing at ultrasound normal appearance and differentiated, pseudodifferentiated, and dedifferentiated bowel wall thickening, respectively. The diagnostic value of ultrasound in diagnosing gastrointestinal involvement of HSP (grades I-III) was calculated using as the standard of reference the absence or presence of clinical symptoms. Average duration of symptoms and hospitalization in the 4 groups was compared. RESULTS: The respective sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of ultrasound for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal involvement of HSP was 83.3%, 100%, 100%, and 53.8%. Groups 0 to III contained, respectively, 5/36 (13.9%), 6/36 (16.7%), 22/36 (61.1%), and 3/36 (8.3%) patients. The groups' average duration of symptoms, respectively, was 2.20 +/- 2.06, 5.67 +/- 1.88, 6.29 +/- .94, and 17.67 +/- 2.66 days, whereas the length of hospitalization, respectively, was 4.80 +/- 2.96, 9.17 +/- 2.70, 11.46 +/- 1.35, and 24.67 +/- 3.82 days. The duration of both symptoms and hospitalization was significantly higher in group III than in the other groups (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In children with gastrointestinal involvement of HSP, dedifferentiated wall thickening as shown by ultrasound is associated with a poor clinical prognosis. [less ▲]

Nutritional studies frequently take into consideration plasma amino acid concentrations in order to evaluate the adequacy of protein intake in preterm infants. From our data of more than 100 determinations of plasma amino acid concentrations in preterm infants, we review the factors influencing the aminogram. Method and moment of sampling, protein intake and composition, protein turnover rate, energy supply, and gestational age, all may influence plasma amino acid concentrations. It is suggested that the cord blood amino acid concentration may be considered as an appropriate value of reference and a safe level for growing preterm infants. [less ▲]

The clay mineralogy of Pleistocene sediments of eleven sediment cores at three ODP sites from 30 degrees N to 60 degrees N northwestern Atlantic Ocean has been investigated. The sediments are characterized by the presence of random illite-vermiculite mixed layers (I-V) (up to 32% of the clay mineral assemblage). The I-V clays are much more abundant during interglacial periods than during glacial ones. They are attributed to detrital supply through erosion of high-latitude continental areas from which they are derived mainly from chemical weathering of micaceous phyllosilicates. Their spatial distribution and the specific conditions for their formation through weathering suggest that I-V mixed layers are mainly derived from the Canadian Shield. They were transported From their source to marine deposition areas by rivers, deep water masses or nepheloid layers. Due to the specific conditions required For the Formation of I-V, its occurrence and abundance are used as a palaeoclimate and palaeocirculation proxy for northwestern Atlantic Pleistocene sediment.

Under the preliminary evaluation program of the SPOT satellite (PEPS project), researches in remote sensing applied to geology of sheet 49 (SPA) have helped to identify several families of lineaments through the use of directional filters . It was mainly lineaments whose orientations reflected condrusian structures but also, other ones (NW-SE, NS and NNE-SSW) which did not correspond to any known geological structures. [less ▲]
