France hospitality

It must be observed here that, in France, hospital functions may be associated with an academic position. Consequently, J. E. Courtois, who was attracted to biological chemistry, entered the Faculty of Pharmacy in the laboratory headed by Paul Fleury, his master with whom a fruitful collaboration became established that was to last for many years.

Flori and le Vaillant (2004) studied the temporal relationship between the uptake of the more aggressive antiretroviral therapy and the use and cost of hospital treatment for HIV-infected patients in France from 1995 to 2000 from a hospital perspective. The authors found that during this period the proportion of patients on ARV treatment increased from 69.5% to 97%, with a large rise in the use of polytherapy. This increase was most notable for patients with CD4 cell counts above 500. ART expenditures per patient increased between the study years by 220%, reaching US 1,886 in 2000. Unlike that, inpatient hospitalization fell by 60% and average length of stay declined. Thus hospital costs (excluding ART) decreased to US 2,137 in 2000.

Method The authors use information on all non-hospital sales of pharmaceutical products in 1992 in a sample of countries consisting of the USA, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Japan and the UK. The database was provided by Intercontinental Medical Systems (IMS). The empirical analysis is based on the calculation of the Paasche and Laspeyres price indexes and the ratio between them. The descriptive analysis is completed with the econometric analysis (quasi-hedonic model) of the determining factors of the variation in the relative prices of each active ingredient in each country taking the USA as the point of comparison. 

I also acknowledge with gratitude the hospitality of the Bibliotheque Nationale, Archives Nationales de France, Faculte de Pharmacie de l Universite de Paris, and the British Library.

Carol Loeb Shloss speculates in Lucia Joyce To Dance in the Wake that whatever condition Lucia Joyce had, it was worsened by family members who forced her to give up her career in modem dance— something at which she excelled. Alas, Lucia was frequently abandoned by men she loved. Her mental health declined. Lucia s brother had her committed to a hospital and insisted that she remain locked up in institutions where she was used as a human guinea pig by psychiatrists testing their nutty theories. When she was 28 years old, the Joyces put her in an asylum near Paris, and she never lived on the outside again. James Joyce loved her dearly and never believed that she was insane. He tried desperately to get her out of occupied France. Unfortunately, he died suddenly in 1941, and Lucia was abandoned to remain in mental hospitals for the rest of her life. She died in 1982 at the age of 75.

Several tests with silicon containing compounds as therapeutics in human medicine have already been crowned with success. In France certain organosilicon preparations, DNR and RDN (compare Chap. 5.5), are used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, cancer and virus infections. In the Soviet Union extensive clinical tests with ointments of l-(chloromethyl)- and 1-ethoxysilatrane as possible drugs for treatment of different typs of alopecia were successful (compare Chap. 5.1). Further clinical studies showed that l-(chloromethyl)silatrane is also very promising in treatment of wounds and bums. In a Swedish hospital patients with poorly differentiated prostatic carcinoma were treated with 2,6-c/s-diphenyl-hexamethyl-cyclo-tetrasiloxane (Cisobitan ) the clinical study also yielded promising results (compare Chap. 5.3). 

The author is deeply indebted to Professor Raymond Daudel for his kind hospitality during the summers of 1962 and 1963 at the Centre de Mficanique Ondulatoire Appliqu e (Paris 19, France) where the bulk of this study was carried out. He is especially grateful to Dr. Odilon Chalvet for invaluable advice and patient guidance throughout the course of this work, and would like to thank Dr. Joyce Kaufman and Professor Hans Jaffe for several stimulating discussions.
