Abstract

L’essai clinique, pratiqué sur l’homme, constitue une procédure décisive pour l’enregistrement d’un médicament avant sa commercialisation : il est destiné à en confirmer l’innocuité et l’efficacité. Mais les rares essais cliniques réalisés dans les pays en développement sont, le plus souvent, menés dans une perspective de simple délocalisation. Il est donc important que ces pays s’approprient cette expérimentation pour contourner les exigences de l’industrie pharmaceutique et maîtriser leur propre stratégie de santé publique. Cette étape nécessaire doit pouvoir être effectuée dans les pays du Sud pour des médicaments appropriés aux besoins spécifiques des populations. Par ailleurs, l’extension des essais cliniques y favoriserait une exploitation de la pharmacopée traditionnelle dans des conditions rigoureuses. Cet ouvrage décrit chacune des étapes de l’essai clinique, de la préparation jusqu’à l’interprétation des résultats, en soulignant les difficultés particulières aux essais menés dans les pays en développement, notamment en Afrique. Les dimensions culturelles de la maladie et les pratiques thérapeutiques ainsi que l’histoire de l’expérimentation fondent des approches propres de l’éthique qui sont exposées en contrepoint des paradigmes occidentaux. Les coutumes et usages influent également sur la réalisation pratique des essais cliniques, ce qui impose de nombreuses adaptations méthodologiques. Ce manuel s’adresse aux personnels de santé, aussi bien aux cliniciens amenés à effectuer des essais cliniques en Afrique qu’aux professionnels du médicament, aux promoteurs et aux responsables administratifs et politiques des pays africains appelés à se mobiliser pour que ce continent accède à une véritable indépendance sanitaire.

Topics range from molecular and cellular aspects of neuronal development and function to behavior, cognition and disorders of the nervous system. By commissioning the best authors to write on the timeliest issues, and following a rigorous peer-review process, the journal provides an unparalleled source of information and opinion for neuroscientists in academia, clinical research and industry. One of the unique features of Nature Reviews Neuroscience is its extraordinary breadth and depth of coverage. This very broad scope – from molecules to mind – captures the essence of modern neuroscience, and allows the journal to attract readers from all areas of this ever-expanding discipline.

Abstract

Mucosal Immunology is the official publication of the Society of Mucosal Immunology (SMI). It aims to provide a forum for both basic and clinical scientists to discuss all aspects of immunity and inflammation involving mucosal tissues. The journal reflects the interests of scientists studying gastrointestinal, pulmonary, nasopharyngeal, oral, ocular, and genitourinary immunology through the publication of original research articles, scholarly reviews, and timely commentaries, editorials and letters. Publication of basic, translational, and clinical studies will all be given equal consideration. In addition, Mucosal Immunology aims to provide a primary method of communication for the SMI governing board and its members through the publication of society news, announcements of planned meetings and conferences, discussions of policy concerns, and advertisements for job and training opportunities.

Abstract

Immunology is a diverse and growing discipline that can be defined as the study of the tissues, cells and molecules involved in host defence mechanisms, how the body defends itself against disease, and what happens when it all goes wrong. Nature Reviews Immunology provides in-depth coverage of this field, from fundamental mechanisms to translational aspects of basic research, and reviews the field’s most important developments. All Review and Perspective articles are carefully commissioned by the editors and written by leaders in the field. Articles are subject to rigorous peer review and provide high-quality and authoritative coverage of the field in each issue. Articles are carefully tailored by the editors to provide accessible information for non-specialists, and this is additionally enhanced with the use of Glossary terms and highlighted references. Each issue also contains Research Highlight articles – short pieces written by the editors that summarize the results from recent hot research papers.

Abstract

This book presents the latest advances in precision medicine in some of the most common cancer types, including hematological, lung and breast malignancies. It also discusses emerging technologies that are making a significant impact on precision medicine in cancer therapy. In addition to describing specific approaches that have already entered clinical practice, the book explores new concepts and tools that are being developed. Precision medicine aims to deliver personalized healthcare tailored to a patient’s genetics, lifestyle and environment, and cancer therapy is one of the areas in which it has flourished in recent years. Documenting the latest advances, this book is of interest to physicians and clinical fellows in the front line of the war on cancer, as well as to basic scientists working in the fields of cancer biology, drug development, biomarker discovery, and biomedical engineering. The contributing authors include translational physicians with first-hand experience in precision patient care.

Abstract

How to create the conditions favoring biomedical innovation and how to orient research? Elias Zerhouni advocates for the concept of integrated health according to which social and political innovations must enter into synergy with biomedical innovation. Deciphering what the medicine of tomorrow will be - predictive , personalized , preemptive and participative -, he explains why we must preserve the freedom of researchers and how we can encourage innovation in the conduct of scientific projects.

Abstract

This book is a critical examination of the philosophical and moral issues in relation to human enhancement and the various related medical developments that are now rapidly moving from the laboratory into the clinical realm. In the book, the author critically examines technologies such as genetic engineering, neural implants, pharmacologic enhancement, and cryonic suspension from transhumanist and bioconservative positions, focusing primarily on moral issues and what it means to be a human in a setting where technological interventions sometimes impact strongly on our humanity. The author also introduces the notion that death is a process rather than an event, as well as identifies philosophical and clinical limitations in the contemporary determination of brain death as a precursor to organ procurement for transplantation. The discussion on what exactly it means to be dead is later applied to explore philosophical and clinical issues germane to the cryonics movement. Written by a physician/ scientist and heavily referenced to the peer-reviewed medical and scientific literature, the book is aimed at advanced students and academics but should be readable by any intelligent reader willing to carry out some side-reading. No prior knowledge of moral philosophy is assumed, as the various key approaches to moral philosophy are outlined early in the book.
