    Abstract The contributions of efficient PDM systems in industry for better product life cycle and data management is described. Presented are importance, architectural designs and implementation details of some existing commercial and academic PDM Systems i.e. Windchill, CIM DATABASE, CPDM, WPDM and Promise PLM. To implement a new PDM System, this paper presents major development guidelines, main components, mandatory functional requirements and some currently identified problems in PDM Systems. We support the medical community with the proposition and implementation of an innovative initiative, addressing major challenges of providing optimal management of a certain diagnosis, working rapidly under emergency conditions, protecting personal data, coupling individual patient data with general repositories, allowing therapy monitoring, analyzing individual variations with the and incorporation of golden standard therapy guidelines. The concepts of PDM transit the field of Bioinformatics for the implementation of an advanced clinical data analysis and management system. We propose layered conceptual and implementation architectures along with tools and technologies for the development of a prototype system.

    Abstract HIV-1 gp120 glycan binding to C-type lectin adhesion receptor L-selectin/CD62L on CD4 T cells facilitates viral attachment and entry. Paradoxically, the adhesion receptor impedes HIV-1 budding from infected T cells and the viral release requires the shedding of CD62L. To systematically investigate CD62L-shedding mediated viral release and its potential inhibition, we screened compounds specific for serine-, cysteine-, aspartyl-, and Zn-dependent proteases for CD62L shedding inhibition and found that a subclass of Zn-metalloproteinase inhibitors, including BB-94, TAPI, prinomastat, GM6001, and GI25423X, suppressed CD62L shedding. Their inhibition of HIV-1 infections correlated with enzymatic suppression of both ADAM10 and 17 activities and expressions of these ADAMs were transiently induced during the viral infection. These metalloproteinase inhibitors are distinct from the current antiretroviral drug compounds. Using immunogold labeling of CD62L, we observed association between budding HIV-1 virions and CD62L by transmission electron microscope, and the extent of CD62L-tethering of budding virions increased when the receptor shedding is inhibited. Finally, these CD62L shedding inhibitors suppressed the release of HIV-1 virions by CD4 T cells of infected individuals and their virion release inhibitions correlated with their CD62L shedding inhibitions. Our finding reveals a new therapeutic approach targeted at HIV-1 viral release.

    Abstract Adam et l'astragale, deux faces d'une même question : celle de l'homme et de son humanité. Un homme, dans la tradition occidentale, c'est d'évidence un fils d'Adam, qui fut créé de toutes pièces et d'un coup par Dieu à son image. L'homme y est animé de raison, pour se distinguer de l'animal : celui-ci d'emblée et sa nature le sépare radicalement de son environnement. L'astragale, c'est ce petit os du pied présent chez tous les primates et chez l'homme. C'est parce que l'astragale humain forme un angle presque droit que l'homme peut se déplacer debout longtemps, libérer ses mains, développer son cerveau. Cet os minuscule, comme tant d'autre critère, incarne une vision plus continuiste de l'origine de l'homme : l'homme est ici animal parmi d'autres. Ce n'est que par l'apprentissage d'une culture spécifique, par l'acquisition de certains comportements et valeurs, qu'il devient un humain.-

    Face à une vision simpliste de l'histoire de l'idée d'humanité, qui expliquerait en termes de progrès unilatéral le passage d'Adam à l'astragale, d'une vision religieuse à une vision matérialiste, ce livre révèle l'imbrication voire les tensions des deux modèles à travers les époques. Au lieu de définir l'être d e l'humain en s'appuyant sur les seules références philosophiques ou dogmatiques, il interroge les discours et les pratiques qui ont déterminé et déterminent les limites de l'humain. Un tel questionnement demande une approche transversale, multidisciplinaire. L'humanité mise à l'épreuve, en tant que valeur communautaire, principe d'exclusion, modèle normatif de comportement, tel est le fil conducteur de ces essais d'histoire, de philosophie d'anthropologie et d'éthologie. L'Occident médiéval est ici leur centre de gravité.-

    Car c'est là qu'Adam, le chrétien, l'image de Dieu, qui nous semble si étranger, évidement triomphe. Mai c'est aussi à cette époque que sont clairement posés un certain nombre de problèmes qui rendront possible la pensée de l'astragale. Adam et l'astragale, deux faces d'une même question : celle de l'homme et de son humanité. Un homme, dans la tradition occidentale, c'est d'évidence un fils d'Adam, qui fut créé de toutes pièces et d'un coup par Dieu à son image. L'homme y est animé de raison, pour se distinguer de l'animal : celui-ci d'emblée et sa nature le sépare radicalement de son environnement. L'astragale, c'est ce petit os du pied présent chez tous les primates et chez l'homme.

    Abstract Applications for dexterous robot teleoperation and immersive virtual reality are growing. Haptic user input devices need to allow the user to intuitively command and seamlessly "feel" the environment they work in, whether virtual or a remote site through an avatar. We introduce the DLR Exodex Adam, a reconfigurable, dexterous, whole-hand haptic input device. The device comprises multiple modular, three degrees of freedom (3-DOF) robotic fingers, whose placement on the device can be adjusted to optimize manipulability for different user hand sizes. Additionally, the device is mounted on a 7-DOF robot arm to increase the user's workspace. Exodex Adam uses a front-facing interface, with robotic fingers coupled to two of the user's fingertips, the thumb, and two points on the palm. Including the palm, as opposed to only the fingertips as is common in existing devices, enables accurate tracking of the whole hand without additional sensors such as a data glove or motion capture. By providing "whole-hand" interaction with omnidirectional force-feedback at the attachment points, we enable the user to experience the environment with the complete hand instead of only the fingertips, thus realizing deeper immersion. Interaction using Exodex Adam can range from palpation of objects and surfaces to manipulation using both power and precision grasps, all while receiving haptic feedback. This article details the concept and design of the Exodex Adam, as well as use cases where it is deployed with different command modalities. These include mixed-media interaction in a virtual environment, gesture-based telemanipulation, and robotic hand-arm teleoperation using adaptive model-mediated teleoperation. Finally, we share the insights gained during our development process and use case deployments.

    Abstract Background: Acamprosate is an effective and cost-effective medication for alcohol relapse prevention but poor adherence can limit its full benefit. Effective interventions to support adherence to acamprosate are therefore needed.
    Objectives: To determine the effectiveness of Medication Management, with and without Contingency Management, compared to Standard Support alone in enhancing adherence to acamprosate and the impact of adherence to acamprosate on abstinence and reduced alcohol consumption.
    Design: Multicentre, three-arm, parallel-group, randomised controlled clinical trial.
    Setting: Specialist alcohol treatment services in five regions of England (South East London, Central and North West London, Wessex, Yorkshire and Humber and West Midlands).
    Participants: Adults (aged 18 years or more), an
    Interventions: (1) Standard Support, (2) Standard Support with adjunctive Medication Management provided by pharmacists via a clinical contact centre (12 sessions over 6 months), (3) Standard Support with adjunctive Medication Management plus Contingency Management that consisted of vouchers (up to £120) to reinforce participation in Medication Management. Consenting participants were randomised in a 2 : 1 : 1 ratio to one of the three groups using a stratified random permuted block method using a remote system. Participants and researchers were not blind to treatment allocation.
    Main outcome measures: Primary outcome: self-reported percentage of medication taken in the previous 28 days at 6 months post randomisation. Economic outcome: EuroQol-5 Dimensions, a five-level version, used to calculate quality-adjusted life-years, with costs estimated using the Adult Service Use Schedule.
    Results: Of the 1459 potential participants approached, 1019 (70%) were assessed and 739 (73 consented to participate in the study, 372 (50%) were allocated to Standard Support, 182 (25%) to Standard Support with Medication Management and 185 (25%) to Standard Support and Medication Management with Contingency Management. Data were available for 518 (70%) of participants at 6-month follow-up, 255 (68.5%) allocated to Standard Support, 122 (67.0%) to Standard Support and Medication Management and 141 (76.2%) to Standard Support and Medication Management with Contingency Management. The mean difference of per cent adherence to acamprosate was higher for those who received Standard Support and Medication Management with Contingency Management (10.6%, 95% confidence interval 19.6% to 1.6%) compared to Standard Support alone, at the primary end point (6-month follow-up). There was no significant difference in per cent days adherent when comparing Standard Support and Medication Management with Standard Support alone 3.1% (95% confidence interval 12.8% to -6.5%) or comparing Standard Support and Medication Management with Standard Support and Medication Management with Contingency Management 7.9% (95% confidence interval 18.7% to -2.8%). The primary economic analysis at 6 months found that Standard Support and Medication Management with Contingency Management was cost-effective compared to Standard Support alone, achieving small gains in quality-adjusted life-years at a lower cost per participant. Cost-effectiveness was not observed for adjunctive Medication Management compared to Standard Support alone. There were no serious adverse events related to the trial interventions reported.
    Limitations: The trial's primary outcome measure changed substantially due to data collection difficulties and therefore relied on a measure of self-reported adherence. A lower than anticipated follow-up rate at 12 months may have lowered the statistical power to detect differences in the secondary analyses, although the primary analysis was not impacted.
    Conclusions: Medication Management enhanced with Contingency Management is beneficial to patients for supporting them to take acamprosate.
    Future work: Given our findings in relation to Contingency Management enhancing Medication Management adherence, future trials should be developed to explore its effectiveness and cost-effectiveness with other alcohol interventions where there is evidence of poor adherence.
    Trial registration: This trial is registered as ISRCTN17083622 https://doi.org/10.1186/ISRCTN17083622.
