We used 14 easily measured biologic and clinical variables to develop a simple scoring system reflecting the risk of death in ICU patients. The simplified acute physiology score (SAPS) was evaluated… (More)
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM) are hamartomatous vascular malformations characterized by abnormally enlarged capillary cavities without intervening brain parenchyma. They cause seizures and… (More)
We isolated two zebrafish sequences containing a homeobox related to orthodenticle (otd), a gene expressed in the developing head of Drosophila. One of these is clearly homologous to Otx1, a homeobox… (More)
Most severe goat mycoplasmosis outbreaks in France are caused by Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides biotype LC (MmmLC). However, MmmLC can also be recovered from ear canals of healthy goats or from… (More)
A study of the prevalence of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) infection in dairy goats was carried out in France, using a serological ELISA. One hundred and five herds were… (More)

A critical review of the literature about risks and benefits of the removal of impacted 3rd molar teeth is presented in 4 categories: risk of non-intervention, risk of intervention, benefit of… (More)
In order to produce markers of melanoblasts and melanocytes, we immunized a mouse with trunk neural crest cells differentiated into melanocytes in culture. We obtained three monoclonal antibodies… (More)
The persistent carotid-vertebrobasilar anastomoses (PCVBA) can be explained by an interruption of the vertebrobasilar system (VBS) embryogenesis. We present two very rare cases of persistent… (More)
