TL;DR: Au cours de la contraction du tissu de granulation, de nombreux fibroblastes acquièrent des caractéristiques ultrastructurelles qui les rendent semblables à des cellules musculaires lisses.
Abstract: Au cours de la contraction du tissu de granulation, de nombreux fibroblastes acquierent des caracteristiques ultrastructurelles qui les rendent semblables a des cellules musculaires lisses. Il est probable que ces elements modifies jouent un role dans le processus de contraction des plaies.

TL;DR: The T2K experiment observes indications of ν (μ) → ν(e) appearance in data accumulated with 1.43×10(20) protons on target, and under this hypothesis, the probability to observe six or more candidate events is 7×10(-3), equivalent to 2.5σ significance.
Abstract: The T2K experiment observes indications of nu(mu) -> nu(mu) e appearance in data accumulated with 1.43 x 10(20) protons on target. Six events pass all selection criteria at the far detector. In a three-flavor neutrino oscillation scenario with |Delta m(23)(2)| = 2.4 x 10(-3) eV(2), sin(2)2 theta(23) = 1 and sin(2)2 theta(13) = 0, the expected number of such events is 1.5 +/- 0.3(syst). Under this hypothesis, the probability to observe six or more candidate events is 7 x 10(-3), equivalent to 2.5 sigma significance. At 90% C.L., the data are consistent with 0.03(0.04) < sin(2)2 theta(13) < 0.28(0.34) for delta(CP) = 0 and a normal (inverted) hierarchy.

TL;DR: Rosuvastatin did not reduce the primary outcome or the number of deaths from any cause in older patients with systolic heart failure, although the drug did reduce the numberOf cardiovascular hospitalizations and the drugdid not cause safety problems.
Abstract: As compared with the placebo group, patients in the rosuvastatin group had de- creased levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (difference between groups, 45.0%; P<0.001) and of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (difference between groups, 37.1%; P<0.001). During a median follow-up of 32.8 months, the primary outcome occurred in 692 patients in the rosuvastatin group and 732 in the placebo group (hazard ratio, 0.92; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.83 to 1.02; P = 0.12), and 728 patients and 759 patients, respectively, died (hazard ratio, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.86 to 1.05; P = 0.31). There were no significant differences between the two groups in the coronary outcome or death from cardiovascular causes. In a prespecified secondary analysis, there were fewer hospitalizations for cardiovascular causes in the rosuvastatin group (2193) than in the placebo group (2564) (P<0.001). No excessive episodes of muscle-related or other adverse events occurred in the rosuvastatin group. Conclusions Rosuvastatin did not reduce the primary outcome or the number of deaths from any cause in older patients with systolic heart failure, although the drug did reduce the number of cardiovascular hospitalizations. The drug did not cause safety problems. (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00206310.)

TL;DR: This article shows how to infer past demographic parameters by explicitly taking into account a finite-sites model with heterogeneity of mutation rates, and proposes an alternative way to derive confidence intervals around the estimated parameters, based on a bootstrap approach.
Abstract: Distributions of pairwise differences often called "mismatch distributions" have been extensively used to estimate the demographic parameters of past population expansions. However, these estimations relied on the assumption that all mutations occurring in the ancestry of a pair of genes lead to observable differences (the infinite-sites model). This mutation model may not be very realistic, especially in the case of the control region of mitochondrial DNA, where this methodology has been mostly applied. In this article, we show how to infer past demographic parameters by explicitly taking into account a finite-sites model with heterogeneity of mutation rates. We also propose an alternative way to derive confidence intervals around the estimated parameters, based on a bootstrap approach. By checking the validity of these confidence intervals by simulations, we find that only those associated with the timing of the expansion are approximately correctly estimated, while those around the population sizes are overly large. We also propose a test of the validity of the estimated demographic expansion scenario, whose proper behavior is verified by simulation. We illustrate our method with human mitochondrial DNA, where estimates of expansion times are found to be 10-20% larger when taking into account heterogeneity of mutation rates than under the infinite-sites model.
