Book Description
How well are the French? What are the most important health-related issues for children of under 15 years of age, for young and older adults, for the elderly? What geographically and socially based inequalities affect health status? How can patients and users of the health care system -- members of the public -- be brought into the making of decisions that affect them in this literally vital field? Is our health care system well organised? And is it working in an efficient and democratic way? How are questions of resource allocation settled? This is the third in a series of official reports (the previous ones were published in 1994 and 1998) compiled by the High Committee on Public Health to analyse health status in the country, with an in-depth review of the strengths and weaknesses of the system as a whole. This report combines a critical analysis of the current health care system with a review of key current and projected health-related issues, focusing on public health targets identified from as broad and all-inclusive a perspective as possible.

Book Description
Behavioral Dentistry, Second Edition, surveys the vast and absorbing topic of the role of behavioral science in the study and clinical practice of dentistry. An understanding of social sciences has long been a central part of dental education, and essential for developing a clinician’s appreciation of human behavior as it affects efficient dental treatment. This book gathers together contributions from leading experts in each of the major subspecialties of behavioral dentistry. Its aim is not merely to provide the student and clinician with a comprehensive review of the impressive literature or discussion of the theoretical background to the subject, but also with a practical guide to adapting the latest techniques and protocols and applying them to day-to-day clinical practice. This second edition of Behavioral Dentistry discusses biobehavioral processes, including the psychobiology of inflammation and pain, oral health and quality of life, saliva health, and hypnosis in dentistry. The book goes on to examine anxiety, fear, and dental and chronic orofacial pain, and then reviews techniques for designing and managing behavior change. It concludes with a section on professional practice, including care of special needs, geriatric, and diabetic patients, and interpersonal communication in dental education.

Book Description
The concept of reproductive health promises to play a crucial role in improving women's health and rights around the world. It was internationally endorsed by a United Nations conference in 1994, but remains controversial because of the challenge it presents to conservative agencies: it challenges policies of suppressing public discussion on human sexuality and regulating its private expressions. Reproductive Health and Human Rights is designed to equip healthcare providers and administrators to integrate ethical, legal, and human rights principles in protection and promotion of reproductive health, and to inform lawyers and women's health advocates about aspects of medicine and healthcare systems that affect reproduction. Rebecca Cook, Bernard Dickens, and Mahmoud Fathalla, leading international authorities on reproductive medicine, human rights, medical law, and bioethics, integrate their disciplines to provide an accessible but comprehensive introduction to reproductive and sexual health. They analyse fifteen case-studies of recurrent problems, focusing particularly on resource-poor settings. Approaches to resolution are considered at clinical and health system levels. They also consider kinds of social change that would relieve the underlying conditions of reproductive health dilemmas. Supporting the explanatory chapters and case-studies are extensive resources of epidemiological data, human rights documents, and research materials and websites on reproductive and sexual health. In explaining ethics, law, and human rights to healthcare providers and administrators, and reproductive health to lawyers and women's health advocates, the authors explore and illustrate limitations and dysfunctions of prevailing health systems and their legal regulation, but also propose opportunities for reform. They draw on the values and principles of ethics and human rights recognized in national and international legal systems, to guide healthcare providers and administrators, lawyers, governments, and national and international agencies and legal tribunals. Reproductive Health and Human Rights will be an invaluable resource for all those working to improve services and legal protection for women around the world.

Book Description
De récentes études démontrent que la peur des traitements dentaires est non seulement toujours présente mais, plus encore, elle a été depuis nombre d'années sous-estimée, atteignant de 15 à 20% de la population. D'autre part, les derniers rapports sur la santé bucco-dentaire des adolescents indiquent que l'utilisation des services dentaires cliniques a plafonné depuis les 5 à 1 O dernières années, avec un taux d'utilisation variant entre 70 et 80% chez les adolescents de12 à 15 ans. Aussi, près des deux-tiers des caries dentaires pour cette population se retrouvent chez seulement 10 à 12% d'entre eux. L'auteur constate que malgré qu' il existe en psychologie un lien démontrable entre la peur et l'évitement et qu'il soit logique de présumer que l'évitement des soins dentaires entraînera une mauvaise santé bucco-dentaire, aucune étude empirique n'a jusqu'à maintenant fait la démonstration de ce lien. Une étude a donc été conçue dans le but de déterminer s'il existe une différence sur le plan de la santé dentaire et de l'utilisation des services dentaires entre des groupes de sujets qui manifestent différents niveaux de peur des traitements dentaires. Dans un premier temps, le niveau de peur a été déterminé pour un échantillon de 1 063 adolescents de 12 à15 ans, à l'aide de l'Inventaire cognitif de la peur des traitements dentaires pour adolescents (Morin et coll., 1987). À partir des résultats obtenus, trois groupes de sujets manifestant respectivement une peur d'intensité faible, modérée et intense,ont été formés. Finalement, dans chaque groupe, 86 sujets ont été sélectionnés pour l'étude comparative. Leur condition bucco-dentaire a été évaluée à partir des critères de l'OMS et leur utilisation des services dentaires a également été examinée. Les résultats révèlent une utilisation des services moins élevée et des indices de morbidité dentaire (CAOD et CAOF) significativement plus élevés pour le groupe de peur intense. L'auteur conclu que la condition bucco-dentaire et l'utilisation des services sont influencées par la peur des traitements dentaires mais que cette peur doit être intense pour que l'effet soit significatif.

Book Description
The new technological advances opened widely the application field of robots. Robots are moving from the classical application scenario with structured industrial environments and tedious repetitive tasks to new application environments that require more interaction with the humans. It is in this context that the concept of Wearable Robots (WRs) has emerged. One of the most exciting and challenging aspects in the design of biomechatronics wearable robots is that the human takes a place in the design, this fact imposes several restrictions and requirements in the design of this sort of devices. The key distinctive aspect in wearable robots is their intrinsic dual cognitive and physical interaction with humans. The key role of a robot in a physical human–robot interaction (pHRI) is the generation of supplementary forces to empower and overcome human physical limits. The crucial role of a cognitive human–robot interaction (cHRI) is to make the human aware of the possibilities of the robot while allowing them to maintain control of the robot at all times. This book gives a general overview of the robotics exoskeletons and introduces the reader to this robotic field. Moreover, it describes the development of an upper limb exoskeleton for tremor suppression in order to illustrate the influence of a specific application in the designs decisions.
