Abstract
Anthropologists and ethnomusicologists assert that there is no society without song, and more specifically, there is no ritual or celebration without accompanying sound. The production of sounds in social contexts is very ancient. Here, we report on the study of a seashell from the decorated cave of Marsoulas and demonstrate that the Magdalenian occupants of this site transformed this shell into a wind instrument. It is one of the very rare examples, if not the only one for the Paleolithic period, of a musical instrument fashioned from a large shell, and the first conch shell of this use thus far discovered. We already know that prehistoric people transformed many shells into portable ornaments and that they thus attributed substantial corporal symbolism to them. This seashell horn, with its unique sonority, both deep and strong with an enduring reverberation, sheds light on a musical dimension until now unknown in the context of Upper Paleolithic societies.

Abstract
Background Central blood pressure (BP) is a promising marker to identify subjects with higher cardiovascular risk than expected by traditional risk factors. Significant results have been obtained in populations with high cardiovascular risk, but little is known about low‐cardiovascular‐risk patients, although the differences between central and peripheral BP (amplification) are usually greater in this population. The study aim was to evaluate central BP over 24 hours for cardiovascular event prediction in hypertensive subjects with low cardiovascular risk. Methods and Results Peripheral and central BPs were recorded during clinical visits and over 24 hours in hypertensive patients with low cardiovascular risk (Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation ≤5%). Our primary end point is the occurrence of a cardiovascular event during follow‐up. To assess the potential interest in central pulse pressure over 24 hours, we performed Cox proportional hazard models analysis and comparison of area under the curves using the contrast test for peripheral and central BP. A cohort of 703 hypertensive subjects from Bordeaux were included. After the first 24 hours of BP measurement, the subjects were then followed up for an average of 112.5±70 months. We recorded 65 cardiovascular events during follow‐up. Amplification was found to be significantly associated with cardiovascular events when added to peripheral 24‐hour pulse pressure (P=0.0259). The area under the curve of 24‐hour central pulse pressure is significantly more important than area under the curve of office BP (P=0.0296), and there is a trend of superiority with the area under the curve of peripheral 24‐hour pulse pressure. Conclusions Central pulse pressure over 24 hours improves the prediction of cardiovascular events for hypertensive patients with low cardiovascular risk compared to peripheral pulse pressure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lowering the cosyntropin dose needed for ACTH stimulation would make the test more economical. OBJECTIVES To compare the cortisol response to 1 and 5 μg/kg cosyntropin IV in dogs being screened for hyperadrenocorticism (HAC) and in dogs receiving trilostane or mitotane for pituitary-dependent HAC. ANIMALS Healthy dogs (n = 10); client-owned dogs suspected of having HAC (n = 39) or being treated for pituitary-dependent HAC with mitotane (n = 12) or trilostane (n = 15). PROCEDURES In this prospective study, healthy dogs had consecutive ACTH stimulation tests to ensure 2 tests could be performed in sequence. For the first test, cosyntropin (1 μg/kg IV) was administered; the second test was initiated 4 hours after the start of the first (5 μg/kg cosyntropin IV). Dogs suspected of having HAC or being treated with mitotane were tested as the healthy dogs. Dogs receiving trilostane treatment were tested on consecutive days at the same time post pill using the low dose on day 1. RESULTS In dogs being treated with mitotane or trilostane, the 2 doses were pharmacodynamically equivalent (90% confidence interval, 85.1-108.2%; P = 0.014). However, in dogs suspected of having HAC, the doses were not pharmacodynamically equivalent (90% confidence interval, 73.2-92.8%; P = 0.37); furthermore, in 23% of the dogs, clinical interpretation of test results was different between the doses. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE For dogs suspected of having HAC, 5 μg/kg cosyntropin IV is still recommended for ACTH stimulation testing. For dogs receiving mitotane or trilostane treatment, a dose of 1 μg/kg cosyntropin IV can be used.

Abstract
Auditory categorization involves grouping of acoustic events along one or more shared perceptual dimensions which can relate to both semantic and physical attributes. This process involves both high level cognitive processes (categorization) and low-level perceptual encoding of the acoustic signal, both of which are affected by the use of a cochlear implant (CI) device. The goal of this study was twofold: I) compare the categorization strategies of CI users and normal hearing listeners (NHL) II) investigate if any characteristics of the raw acoustic signal could explain the results. 16 experienced CI users and 20 NHL were tested using a Free-Sorting Task of 16 common sounds divided into 3 predefined categories of environmental, musical and vocal sounds. Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA) and Hierarchical Clustering based on Principal Components (HCPC) show that CI users followed a similar categorization strategy to that of NHL and were able to discriminate between the three different types of sounds. However results for CI users were more varied and showed less inter-participant agreement. Acoustic analysis also highlighted the average pitch salience and average autocorrelation peak as being important for the perception and categorization of the sounds. The results therefore show that on a broad level of categorization CI users may not have as many difficulties as previously thought in discriminating certain kinds of sound; however the perception of individual sounds remains challenging.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The Binge Eating Scale is a widely used scale to assess binge eating disorder in obese patients. Until now, this scale has not been validated on a French population, and no psychometrically sound tool assesses binge eating disorder in the French. This study aimed to test the psychometric properties of a French version of the Binge Eating Scale by establishing its factor structure, internal consistency, and construct validity in both a non-clinical population and a clinical population (obese patients who are candidates for bariatric surgery). METHODS A total of 553 non-clinical subjects and 63 morbidly obese patients who were candidates for bariatric surgery were assessed with the BES and the Bulimic Investigatory Test, Edinburgh or BITE (which assesses both binge eating behaviours and use of inappropriate compensatory behaviours). We tested the factor structure of the instrument, its internal consistency, its construct validity with measures of binge eating, and its construct validity with measures of inappropriate compensatory behaviours to avoid weight gain. In 47 out of the 63 obese patients, we assessed binge eating disorder (SCID). RESULTS In the non-clinical population, the BES had a one-factor structure (which accounted for 61% of the variance), excellent internal consistency (α=0.93), and high construct validity with measures of binge eating. In this population, construct validity with measures of inappropriate compensatory behaviours was confirmed in overweight and obese subjects (P=0.42), but not in underweight and optimal weight subjects (P<0.001). In obese patients candidates for bariatric surgery, we demonstrated that the BES had a one-factor structure (which accounted for 46% of the variance), had high internal consistency (α=0.88) and high construct validity with measures of binge eating and good construct validity with measures of inappropriate compensatory behaviours to avoid weight gain. In the subpopulation of 47 obese patients, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were respectively 75%, 88.4%, 37.5% and 97.4% (BES threshold=18). DISCUSSION In this study, we validated a psychometrically sound French version of the Binge Eating Scale, both in a non-clinical and a clinical sample. The psychometric properties of the French version of the BES are comparable to its original version with a one-factor structure. The BES is a useful tool to assess binge eating disorder in obese patients (e.g., bariatric surgery candidates), but might not differentiate between binge eating disorder and bulimia nervosa in underweight and optimal weight subjects.

Abstract
Understood the strategies underlying the perception of speech motor disorders (SMD) is useful for the management of people with this kind of disorders. Our hypothesis was that intelligibility of speech is a dramatic decision factor for the classification of speech production independently of the type of listeners. Two types of listeners: 15 experts (logopedists and phoniatricians), and 15 non experts (students in the field of heath care without any experience) participated at this study performing a free sorting task of 33 stimuli. The stimuli are a sentence readed by 13 control subjects and 20 subjects with a SMD of several kinds of etiologies. The methodology used for the analysis is the visualization of proximity trees by a sorting mathematical algorithm and the analysis of the free commentaries as a discourse. The results confirm that the degree of alteration of intelligibility is the main factor distributed in the sorts, but the reference to the "normality" is an other strong criteria and this notion is frequently associated with a description of the stimuli at a level of voice more than a level of speech. These results lead to a new hypothesis of a classification of perception of speech included a speech disorders, determined at an extremity by a comparison with a "prototype of normality" and at the other extremity by the characteristic of "intelligibility or understandibility" reinforcing some concepts of speech rehabilitation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pseudoseizures involve a group of paroxysmal behavioral symptoms mimicking an epileptic seizure, but without modifications of cerebral electrical activity. PATIENTS AND METHOD In this retrospective study focusing on mental disorders, 37 patients with pseudoseizures were recorded during video-EEG procedure. RESULTS According to DSM-IV criteria, 70 percent of the patients had at least one mental disorder when evaluated. Diagnoses were, in decreasing order of frequency: post-traumatic stress disorders, other anxious disorders, somatoform disorders, dissociative disorders, and mood disorders. CONCLUSION The strong association between pseudoseizures and post-traumatic stress disorders is discussed. Our results argue in favor of a systematic evaluation of psychiatric comorbidity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the role of placental inflammation in adverse obstetrical outcome (AOO). METHODS Analysis of perinatal data of 701 randomly selected mothers of singleton infants, Mombasa, Kenya. RESULTS There were 661 (94.3%) live infants and 40 (5.7%) stillbirths. Out of the live born infants, 78 (12.4%) had a low birth weight (LBW < 2500g); 33 of them were preterm and 41 small for gestational age (SGA). The incidence of neonatal sepsis and post partum endometritis was 3.6 and 19.8%, respectively. The perinatal death rate was estimated to be 7.3% (51/701). The prevalence of acute placental inflammation was 19.6%. Acute placental inflammation was independently associated with preterm low birth weight (ARR=3.8, 95% CI=1.7-8.9, P<0.01), stillbirth (ARR=2.3, 95% CI=1.1-5.0, P=0.03) and perinatal death (ARR=2.8, 95% CI=1.4-5.4, P<0.01). Women with acute placental inflammation had a two-fold higher risk for AOO (32.6 versus 15.2%, respectively, ARR=2.5, 95% CI=1.3-4.8, P<0.01). Other risk factors for AOO were bad obstetrical history, low haemoglobin level and leucocytosis. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of adverse obstetrical outcome defined as low birth weight, low Apgar score, perinatal mortality and post partum endometritis, was high in this population. Acute placental inflammation was associated with preterm birth, stillbirth and perinatal death. More research is needed to study the role of infection in adverse obstetrical outcome, and to design interventions to decrease infectious morbidity and mortality in pregnancy.

Abstract
Hydrogen bonds are major forces of recognition in biochemistry and molecular pharmacology; they are an essential component of intermolecular interactions and determine to a significant extent the 3D-structure of bio-macromolecules. To explore three-dimensional H-bonding properties, a new tool called Molecular Hydrogen-Bonding Potentials (MHBPs) was created. The development of this tool is based on a stepwise procedure similar to the one used successfully to generate the Molecular Lipophilicity Potential (MLP). First, a H-bonding fragmental system was developed starting from published solvatochromic parameters. An atomic H-bonding donor fragmental value (alpha) is associated to each hydrogen atom in a polar moiety. Similarly, an atomic H-bonding acceptor fragmental value (beta) is associated to each polar atom. A distance function and an angle function were defined to take into account variations of the MHBPs in space. The fragmental system and the geometric functions were then combined to generate the MHBPs. These are calculated at each point of an adequate molecular surface or on a three-dimensional grid. The MHBPs were compared with GRID interactions energies and correlated with success to oral drug absorption data. Available examples demonstrate that the MHBPs are a promising computational tool in drug design. Their combination with CoMFA and VolSurf is being studied.

Abstract
Complete avoidance of breast-feeding is the surest way to avoid mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HIV through breast-feeding, but replacement feeding exposes infants, especially those born in developing countries, to the risk of other infectious diseases with consequent increase in morbidity and mortality. One study has suggested that exclusive breast-feeding during the first months of life carries a lower risk of HIV transmission than when other foods are given in addition to breast milk. Other studies have provided limited data on the risks of HIV transmission according to different patterns of breast-feeding, but studies have used different definitions of breast-feeding patterns and have analysed their data with adjustment on different risk factors. This hampers our ability to understand the mechanisms underlying HIV transmission through breast milk and the risks associated with different infant feeding practices. Consequently it is difficult to determine the best interventions to reduce the risk of transmission and the development of optimal policies. In collaboration with research teams involved with infant feeding research, the World Health Organization has developed a tool to assist studies on MTCTto collect information in a standardized manner, using common definitions and terms. The purpose is to facilitate comparisons between studies and the quantification of the risks of transmission according to various feeding patterns, after adjusting for potential confounding variables. The tool includes a core questionnaire to record infant feeding practices and other key information on the mother's and the infant's health. It also provides guidance on methods of analysis and presentation of the complex data on infant feeding. The tool can be used in prospective research studies on MTCT prevention, as well as providing the framework to assess infant feeding patterns in intervention programmes, such as those providing intensive counselling to mothers on infant feeding. The tool will facilitate the compilation of information from these studies which will ultimately provide scientific basis for updating guidelines and policies on infant feeding by mothers infected with HIV.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of vaginal lavage with diluted chlorhexidine on mother-to child transmission of HIV (MTCT) in a breastfeeding population. METHODS This prospective clinical trial was conducted in a governmental hospital in Mombasa, Kenya. On alternating weeks, women were allocated to non-intervention or to intervention consisting of vaginal lavage with 120 ml 0.2% chlorhexidine, later increased to 0.4%, repeated every 3 h from admission to delivery. Infants were tested for HIV by DNA polymerase chain reaction within 48 h and at 6 and 14 weeks of life. RESULTS Enrolment and follow-up data were available for 297 and 309 HIV-positive women, respectively, in the non-lavage and the lavage groups. There was no evidence of a difference in intrapartum MTCT (17.2 versus 15.9%, OR 0.9, 95% CI 0.6-1.4) between the groups. Lavage solely before rupture of the membranes tended towards lower MTCT with chlorhexidine 0.2% (OR 0.6, 95% CI 0.3-1.1), and even more with chlorhexidine 0.4% (OR 0.1, 95% CI 0.0-0.9). CONCLUSION The need remains for interventions reducing MTCT without HIV testing, often unavailable in countries with a high prevalence of HIV. Vaginal lavage with diluted chlorhexidine during delivery did not show a global effect on MTCT in our study. However, the data suggest that lavage before the membranes are ruptured might be associated with a reduction of MTCT, especially with higher concentrations of chlorhexidine.

Abstract
This article aimed to examine the association between maternal and infant HIV infection and low birth weight (LBW <2500 grams). Data from 8563 singleton liveborns in Mombasa, Kenya, were analysed. Maternal HIV infection was found in 14.1% of the women and 9.6% of neonates had a birth weight of <2500 grams. In multivariate analysis, maternal HIV infection was independently associated with LBW (RR=1.46, 95% CI=1.20-1.79, P =0.0002). Maternal age, primiparity, sex of the baby, religion, syphilis infection, anaemia and previous history of stillbirth were also independently associated with LBW (RR: 1.32, 2.19, 1.44, 1.56, 1.61, 1.31 and 1.69, respectively). The rate of intra-uterine HIV transmission was 5.1% and 20.1% of the exposed infants were infected during the intrapartum period. Intrapartum infected infants had a relative risk of LBW of 1.95 (95% CI=1.18-2.87, P <0.01) compared to uninfected children, whereas the birth weight of infants infected in utero was not different from uninfected infants (RR=1.18, 95% CI=0.56-2.60, P=0.630). HIV infected mothers are more likely to have small babies, even after controlling for possible confounding factors. Low birth weight babies were more at risk for peripartum HIV transmission, but further research is needed to study mechanisms of transmission in relation to birth weight.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The correlation between the presence of HIV-1 in maternal cervicovaginal secretions and in the infant's oro-pharyngal secretions at birth, and mother-to-child HIV transmission (MTCT) were examined to obtain a better understanding of its mechanism. METHODS Women without medical and obstetrical complications, living within a reasonable distance of the government hospital in Mombasa, Kenya, were recruited after informed consent. Maternal and infant characteristics were collected. Polymerase chain reaction was used to detect HIV-1 in cervico-vaginal and oro-pharyngal secretions. Infants were tested for HIV-1 by polymerase chain reaction within 48 h and at 6 weeks after delivery. RESULTS Between April 1998 and April 1999, 228 woman-infant pairs were included in the study. HIV-1 DNA in cervico-vaginal secretions was independently associated with HIV-1 maternal viral load and with infant birth-weight, whereas HIV-1 RNA was associated with maternal viral load and maternal age. HIV-1 DNA in the oropharyngal secretions was also independently associated with maternal viral load. MTCT rate at the age of 6 weeks was 23.6%. Intrapartum and early postpartum HIV transmission was independently associated with maternal viral load [adjusted odds ratio (OR), 1.6; 95% confidence interval (CI),1.0-2.7], detection of HIV-1 RNA in cervico-vaginal secretions (adjusted OR, 3.2; 95% CI, 1.5-7.3) and of HIV-1 DNA in oro-pharyngeal secretions (adjusted OR, 3.2; 95% CI, 1.1-9.0). DISCUSSION As far as is known, this is the first study showing that infant exposure to HIV-1 in the birth canal and the presence of HIV-infected cells in the infant's oropharyngeal cavity are independently associated with intrapartum and early postpartum MTCT. It supports the hypothesis that MTCT could occur through the oral route.

Abstract
Clinicians are familiar with the life and psychological difficulties of incest victims, but their observations often are refuted as being retrospective and unsystematic. We aimed to ascertain similarities and differences between incestuous rape and nonincestuous rape. One hundred and two victims consulting a French forensic center were interviewed in a systematic follow-up study over 6 months using structured interview schedules. Stepwise logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, gender, and characteristics of the trauma showed that posttraumatic stress disorder, dissociative disorders, agoraphobia, and low self-esteem were overrepresented in the incest-rape group compared to the nonincest-rape group.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To appreciate the extent and the features of dissociation in a hypothesized highly dissociated population, rape trauma victims, while assessing construct validity and internal consistency of a French version of the Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES), a simple screening instrument for dissociative symptoms. METHODS One hundred and forty rape victims (mean age 23.6 years, 9% male) consecutively attending a Consultation for Victims of Psychological Trauma at the university hospital in Tours, France, were assessed through a French version of the 28-item self-rated DES. RESULTS The mean score (24.1) was high, and 33% of the scores exceeded a threshold set at 30. The Principal Components Analysis of the DES ratings yielded a 3-factor solution: depersonalization-derealization, amnestic fragmentation of identity, and absorption-imaginative involvement. DES reliability was studied through computation of Cronbach's alpha coefficient (0.94). CONCLUSION During validation of a French version of the DES, the study showed that dissociation is considerably linked to rape-trauma victim populations.

Abstract
Cardiac disorders are observed when excessive plasma concentrations of local anaesthetics are reached, following for instance intravascular accidental injection for epidural anaesthesia or brachial plexus block. Bupivacaine particularly, which is one of the most used local anaesthetics, adversely affects intraventricular conduction and cardiac contractile strength from the 3.0-4.0 micrograms/ml blood levels. Depression of conduction is especially to be feared, for it can result in reentrant arrhythmias likely to degenerate into often fatal ventricular fibrillation. Such accidents may sometimes occur at far lower concentrations, subsequent to diffusion into systemic circulation from the injection site (0.4-1.2 micrograms/ml). These accidents were probably due to various factors which concomitantly intervene during the anaesthesia. We could identify a number of these factors by associating them to an intravenous infusion of bupivacaine (0.04 mg/kg/min after a loading dose of 1.00 mg/kg) in animals (dogs and pigs) under electrocardiographic monitoring, in which conduction time, monophasic action potential duration, effective refractory period and electrical fibrillation threshold were determined in the ventricular fibres. The electrophysiological changes due to bupivacaine may be enhanced by 1) dilution hyponatremia (115-110 mmol/l) induced by a short (5 min) intravenous 10 ml/kg/min infusion of hypotonic solution and/or hyperkalemia (7-8 mmol/l) induced by 0.05 mmol/kg/min infusion of potassium chloride; 2) the acceleration of cardiac contractions (180-210 beats/min) induced by ventricular pacing; 3) mild hypothermia (35-34 degrees C) induced by blood cooling in an extracorporeal circuit; 4) myocardial ischaemia induced by complete temporary occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery near its origin. The risk of cardiac accidents, possibly severe, is therefore enhanced by each of these factors capable of lowering the concentration required for their triggering and, of course, the combination of two or several of them. On the contrary, the knowledge of these factors should allow to prevent most of cardiac accidents of locoregional anaesthesia.

Abstract
Evoked potential mapping is a convenient technique to describe brain electrical activity using pictorial representation. A new interpolation method based on the diffuse approximation is applied to represent evoked potential distribution over the skull. The method retains most of the attractive features of the finite-element method but does not require explicit elements. In the simulation examples, the human head is assumed to be a single-layer sphere with homogeneous conductivity, and Ary eccentricity transformation is considered to approximate the more realistic three-shell model. The patterns shown in the computed maps suggest the ability of the proposed method to extract coherent information from the data from different electrodes. In the application protocol, visual evoked potentials are used to test the method with a realistic head shape.

Abstract
Human alpha1-acid glycoprotein (AAG) is a mixture of at least two genetic variants: the A variant and the F1 and/or S variant or variants, which are encoded by two different genes. In a continuation of previous studies indicating specific drug transport roles for each AAG variant according to its separate genetic origin, this work was designed to (1) determine the affinities of the two main gene products of AAG (i.e., the A variant and a mixture of the F1 and S variants) for 35 chemically diverse drugs and (2) to obtain meaningful 3D-QSARs for each binding site. Affinities were obtained by displacement experiments, leading to qualitative indications about binding site characteristics. In particular, drugs binding selectively to the A variant displayed some common structural features, but this was not seen for the F1*S variants. Three-dimensional QSAR analyses using the CoMFA method yielded a steric model for binding to the A variant, from which a simplified haptophoric model was derived. In contrast, no statistically sound model was found for the F1*S variants, possibly due (among other reasons) to an insufficient number of high affinity ligands in the set.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine whether the General Health Questionnaire, a simple psychological screening instrument, could be useful to non-specialists in screening for psychologically traumatized rape victims. STUDY DESIGN 285 rape victims (mean age 22.5, men 8%) attending consecutively a Consultation for Victims of Psychological Trauma at the University Hospital in Tours, France, were assessed through the Structured Interview for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (SI-PTSD), and the French 28-item version of the self-rated General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28). RESULTS 70% had Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and 72% a GHQ-28 overthreshold score. The principal component analysis of the GHQ-28 ratings yielded a 4-factor solution: social dysfunction, feeling of foreshortened future type of depression, somatoform complaints and hyperalertness anxiety. GHQ-28 reliability and validity in screening for PTSD were studied through computation of Cronbach's alpha coefficient (0.95), sensitivity (88%) and positive predictive value (86%). CONCCLUSION: Using the GHQ-28 is valid and appropriate for practical use.

Abstract
The derivation of a new 3D QSAR field based on the electrotopological state (E-state) formalism is described. A complementary index and its associated field, the HE-state, describing the polarity of hydrogens is also defined. These new fields are constructed from a nonempirical index that incorporates electronegativity, the inductive influence of neighboring atoms, and the topological state into a single atomistic descriptor. The classic CoMFA steroid test data set was examined with models incorporating the E-state and HE-state fields alone and in combination with steric, electrostatic and hydropathic fields. The single best model was the E-state/HE-state combination with q2 = 0.803 (three components) and r2 = 0.979. Using the E-state and/or HE-state fields with other fields consistently produced models with improved statistics, where the E-state fields provided a significant, if not dominant, contribution.

Abstract
A series of eight methoxylated C-methyl-2-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-ones 3, 6, 10-15 was evaluated as inhibitors of rat heart cytosolic cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE). The 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5,7-dimethoxy-3,8-dimethyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one (3) and the 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5,7-dimethoxy-3,8-dimethyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one (10) have never been previously described. Inhibition was performed on the whole cytosolic preparation and on the four PDE isoforms after HPLC purification. The flavones 3, 6, 10, 13 and 14 were selective and potent inhibitors of the isoforms, namely ROI (rolipram-sensitive) and CGI (cGMP-sensitive) PDEs specifically hydrolyzing cAMP. The di-C-methylflavones 3 and 13 have been shown to be potent inhibitors of these two isoforms, with IC50 values in the micromolar range.

Abstract
Ninety psychiatric female inpatients had an interview using structural clinical instruments. The patients were often exposed during their lifetime to psychic trauma and especially to sexual abuse in childhood (27%) and rape (21%). Rape is a risk factor for chronicity and severity of mental disorders. Post-traumatic disorders such as PTSD, dissociative disorders, somatoform disorders and borderline-like disorder are linked to rape. Addictive behavior such as alcohol abuse, drugs use, repeated suicide attempts or eating disorders, is also associated with raped patients and especially with those who developed PTSD after rape.

Abstract
This study reports on the most recent epidemiological survey undertaken in New Caledonia, a French dependency in the South Pacific. Three hundred and twenty-five 12-year-old children were selected from schools using the World Health Organization pathfinder sampling methodology. The results showed a DMFT of 4.09. This places New Caledonia in the 'moderate' category on the World Health Organization scale of caries severity for 12-year-old children. Two oral health risk groups were identified: Melanesian and Wallisian children. Different approaches to promoting oral health in New Caledonia, taking into account local socio-cultural traditions, are proposed.

Abstract
The Molecular Lipophilicity Potential (MLP) is a versatile tool in drug design whose present state and potential developments are reviewed here. The MLP offers a three-dimensional representation of lipophilicity as calculated from partition coefficients. The intermolecular recognition forces and intramolecular effects encoded in lipophilicity are presented, followed by the theoretical foundations and validation of the MLP. It is then demonstrated that the MLP allows for the first time to investigate the dependence of lipophilicity on conformation. As a matter of fact, the MLP combined with an exploration of the conformational space of a solute reveals its "chameleonic" behaviour, i.e. its capacity to adapt to the molecular environment. Other applications of the MLP are presented and illustrated, namely its integration into 3D-QSAR (Comparative Molecular Field Analysis, CoMFA) and its interest as a docking tool.

Abstract
PURPOSE The molecular lipophilicity potential (MLP) offers a three-dimensional representation of lipophilicity, a molecular property encoding intermolecular recognition and intramolecular interactions. METHOD The interest and applications of the MLP in molecular modeling are varied, as illustrated here. RESULTS The MLP is a major tool to assess the dependence of lipophilicity on conformation. As a matter of fact, the MLP combined with an exploration of the conformational space of a solute reveals its "chameleonic" behavior, i.e. its capacity to adapt to its molecular environment by hydrophobic collapse or hydrophilic folding. Another successful application of the MLP is its concatenation into 3D-QSAR (Comparative Molecular Field Analysis, CoMFA). CONCLUSION Work is in progress to expand the MLP into a docking tool in the modeling of ligand-receptor interactions.

Abstract
A set of 280 5-HT1A receptor ligands were selected from available literature data according to predefined criteria and subjected to three-dimensional quantitative structure-affinity relationship analysis using comparative molecular field analysis. No model was obtained for serotonin analogues (19 compounds) and aminotetralins (60 compounds), despite a variety of alignment hypotheses being tried. In contrast, the steric, electrostatic, and lipophilicity fields alone and in combination yielded informative models for arylpiperazines (101 training compounds and 12 test compounds), (aryloxy)propanolamines (30 training compounds and four test compounds), and tetrahydropyridylindoles (54 training compounds) taken separately (models A, B, and C). Arylpiperazines and (aryloxy)propanolamines were then combined successfully to yield reasonably good models for 131 compounds (model D). In a last step, the three chemical classes (185 compounds) were combined, again successfully (model E). This stepwise procedure not only ascertains self-consistency in alignments but it also allows statistical signals (i.e., favorable or unfavorable regions around molecules) to emerge which cannot exist in a single chemical class. The models so obtained reveal a number of interaction sites between ligands and the 5-HT1A receptor, and extend the information gathered from a model based on homology modeling.

Abstract
PURPOSE The regular distribution in space and the stability in time of the hydrophilic sphere surrounding iobitridol were investigated. This is a novel yet important concept in the design of polyiodinated contrast agents since such a sphere is meant to hide their hydrophobic core and thus prevent hydrophobic interactions with biomacromolecules and hence chemotoxicity. METHODS The methods used were experimental (HPLC, 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy) and computational (calculation of conformational behavior and molecular electrostatic potentials). RESULTS Iobitridol exists as a mixture of stereoisomers due to hindered rotation around several bonds. High-temperature molecular dynamics established the existence between 0 and 15 kcal/mol of 238 conformers belonging to 14 classes. Most of these conformers have an inaccessible hydrophobic core, and variable temperature molecular dynamics confirmed that the hydrophilic sphere around iobitridol is stable against external disruption. CONCLUSIONS This study has demonstrated that iobitridol fulfils the physicochemical and structural criteria believed to render a polyiodinated contrast agent inert toward interacting with biomacromolecules.

Abstract
A large series (66 compounds) of indeno[1,2-c]pyridazin-5-ones (IPs) were synthesized and tested on their monoamine oxidase-A (MAO-A) and MAO-B inhibitory activity. All of the tested compounds acted preferentially on MAO-B displaying weak (nonmeasurable IC50 values) to high (submicromolar IC50 values) activities. The most active compound was p-CF3-3-phenyl-IP (IC50 = 90 nM). Multiple linear regression analysis of the substituted 3-phenyl-IPs yielded good statistical results (q2 = 0.74; r2 = 0.86) and showed the importance of lipophilic, electronic, and steric properties of the substituents in determining inhibitory potency. Various comparative molecular field analysis studies were performed with different alignments and including the molecular lipophilicity potential. This led to a model including the steric, electrostatic and lipophilicity fields and having a good predictive value (q2 = 0.75; r2 = 0.93).

Abstract
A series of isoquinolines, N-methyl-1,2-dihydroisoquinolines, N-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines, and N-methylisoquinolinium ions were tested as inhibitors of monoamine oxidases A and B. All compounds were found to act as reversible and time-independent MAO inhibitors, often with a distinct selectivity towards MAO-A. As a class, the N-methylisoquinolinium ions were found to be the most active MAO-A inhibitors, with N-methyl-6-methoxyisoquinolinium ion emerging as a potent (IC50 = 0.81 microM) and competitive MAO-A inhibitor. Comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA, a 3D-QSAR method) of MAO-A inhibition was performed using the data reported here and in the literature. Using the steric and lipophilic fields of the inhibitors, quantitative models with reasonable predictive power were obtained that point to the importance of steric, lipophilic, and polar interactions in modulating MAO-A inhibitory activity.
