L'observation systématique des comportements des entraîneurs sportifs a connu un réel développement au cours de la dernière décennie. Les études relevées dans la littérature spécialisée peuvent se regrouper selon leurs objectifs: (1) l'analyse descriptive des comportements d'entraîneurs et de sportifs, parfois de très haut niveau; (2) la comparaison de situations pédagogiques, notamment en observant une même personne exerçant les fonctions d'entraîner et d'enseignant; (3) la comparaison des interventions des entraîneurs en fonction du niveau d'habileté des sportifs qu'ils dirigent; (4) la comparaison du comportement des entraîneurs en fonction des succès ou des échecs de leur équipe. ...

Fourteen cases of histoplasmosis due to Histoplasma duboisii seen in Congo from 1981 through 1990, are reported: the average age of the patients was 25 years (the youngest being 1,5 y and the oldest 50y), the M/F ratio was 2,5; most of the patients (10/14) live in a rural area. there was a rather constant frequency of one to three cases per annum from 1981 through 1990. The fisrt congolese AIDS-associated systemic histoplasmosis duboisii case was observed in 1990. Lymph node involvment and mucocutaneous lesions were the most frequent clinical manifestations. In all cases, the disgnosis was established by histological examination. When performed, direct microscopy was always positive (11/11). Isolation of H. duboisii in culture was successful in 7 out of 9 attempts. Two cases of systemic infection were rapidly fatal but a good clinical response was obtained in the other cases wih amphotericin B, which due to intolerance, was replaced by ketoconazole in 2 patients.

An overview of the general decision tree approach to power system security assessment is presented. The general decision tree methodology is outlined, modifications proposed in the context of transient stability assessment are embedded, and further refinements are considered. The approach is then suitably tailored to handle other specifics of power systems security, relating to both preventive and emergency voltage control, in addition to transient stability. Trees are accordingly built in these various application domains, and their salient features are explored, assessed, compared. Among attractive aspects of the trees, we mention their ability to uncover the intrinsic mechanism governing physical processes, and to provide a clear description in terms of tractable system parameters. Further, their dual, 'attribute space' representation is shown to have complementary possibilities for more refined analysis and, in addition, for sensitivity assessment and control. Overall, the approach is characterized by its great flexibility with respect to tree structure, types of physical parameters driving the phenomena, and classes of potential applications. To illustrate and support the developments,real-world examples are reported, rolatin 9 to transient and voltage stability issues simulated on several power systems. [less ▲]

Mechanism of action of DD-peptidases: role of asparagine-161 in the Streptomyces R61 DD-peptidase.

The role of residue Asn-161 in the interaction between the Streptomyces R61 DD-peptidase and various substrates or beta-lactam inactivators was probed by site-directed mutagenesis. The residue was successively replaced by serine and alanine. In the first case, acylation rates were mainly affected with the peptide and ester substrates but not with the thiol-ester substrates and beta-lactams. However, the deacylation rates were decreased 10-30-fold with the substrates yielding benzoylglycyl and benzoylalanyl adducts. The Asn161Ala mutant was more generally affected, although the acylation rates with cefuroxime and cefotaxime remained similar to those observed with the wild-type enzyme. Surprisingly, the deacylation rates of the benzoylglycyl and benzoylalanyl adducts were very close to those observed with the wild-type enzyme. The results also indicate that the interaction with the peptide substrate and the transpeptidation reaction were more sensitive to the mutations than the other reactions studied. The results are discussed and compared with those obtained with the Asn-132 mutants of a class A beta-lactamase. [less ▲]
