Carbonate Coatings on Plant Twigs Found from a Travertine-Depositing Small Stream, Dijon, France

Stable stroke incidence rates but improved case-fatality in Dijon, France, from 1985 to 2004.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE With the progress in stroke prevention, it is important to evaluate the epidemiological trends of strokes over a long period and from a nonselected population-based perspective. METHODS We estimated changes in incidence, case-fatality rates, severity, risk factors and prestroke use of preventive treatments for first-ever strokes, from a continuous 20-year well-defined p...

Depositional facies and aqueous-solid geochemistry of travertine-depositing hot springs (Angel Terrace, Mammoth Hot Springs, Yellowstone National Park, U.S.A.).

Petrographic and geochemical analyses of travertine-depositing hot springs at Angel Terrace, Mammoth Hot Springs, Yellowstone National Park, have been used to define five depositional facies along the spring drainage system. Spring waters are expelled in the vent facies at 71 to 73 degrees C and precipitate mounded travertine composed of aragonite needle botryoids. The apron and channel facies ...

Geometric Constraint Solving and Automated Geometric Reasoning (TRACK PROPOSAL TO SAC 2006, DIJON, FRANCE)

We propose to organize at SAC 2006 a track dedicated to the recent trends in the domain of geometric constraint solving (GCS) and automated, or computer aided, deduction in geometry (ADG). Geometric problems are within the heart of many theoretical studies and engineering applications. For instance a large amount of problems from geometric modeling, computer graphics, computer vision, computer ...

Practical Lessons from the Small Bowel Bleeding Lesions: A Case Report on Small Bowel Cavernous Hemangioma

Emergence of Salmonella genomic island 1 (SGI1) among Proteus mirabilis clinical isolates in Dijon, France.

OBJECTIVES Salmonella genomic island 1 (SGI1) is often encountered in antibiotic-resistant Salmonella enterica and exceptionally in Proteus mirabilis. We investigated the prevalence of SGI1-producing clinical isolates of P. mirabilis in our hospital (Dijon, France). METHODS A total of 57 strains of P. mirabilis resistant to amoxicillin and/or gentamicin and/or trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole is...
