Migration and multiple sclerosis: the French West Indies experience.
The French West Indies (FWI), i.e., the islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe, have recently experienced the emergence of multiple sclerosis (MS). This epidemiological upheaval followed a return migration of the FWI population that had previously migrated to continental France. The prevalence MS was 14.8/10(5) (95% CI: 11.9-17.7) on Dec. 31, 1999 and its mean annual incidence was 1.4/10(5) (95% ...

متن کاملCorrection: Underestimation of Leptospirosis Incidence in the French West Indies
BACKGROUND Leptospirosis is a neglected zoonosis affecting mainly tropical and subtropical regions worldwide, particularly South America and the Caribbean. As in many other countries, under-reporting of cases was suspected in the French West Indies because of inadequate access to diagnostic tests for the general population.

متن کاملMarine carbonate records of terrigenous input into Paleotethyan seawater: Geochemical constraints from Carboniferous limestones
A combined study of trace elements, carbon and oxygen isotopes was carried out for Carboniferous marine limestones from the Lower Yangtze platform in South China. The results provide insights into the influence of terrigenous input to Paleotethyan seawater, from which pure and impure carbonates precipitated. In terms of the correlations between the concentrations of elements with different prop...
