Abstract

Charcot occupies an important place among Rayer's disciples although they did not publish any work together. They met for the first time in 1848 and later at the Société de Biologie. From 1853 to 1855 Charcot was Piorry's chef de Clinique" near Rayer's department at the Charité hospital. In 1860 Charcot was nominated "professeur agrégé with Rayer's backing. Several publications of Charcot with other disciples of Rayer (Ch. Robin, C. Davaine) are recalled as well as his paper, signed alone in 1858, on chronical arterial ischemia (Syndrome of Bouley and Charcot). An unpublished letter from Rayer recommending Charcot to the librarian of the Institut de France (1859) as well as a partial and undated one from Charcot back from England to Rayer are published here.

Video and qualitative research: analysing medical practice and interaction.

CONTEXT: Video has long been recognised as providing an important resource within medical education, particularly, perhaps, for training in primary health care. As a resource for research, and more specifically within qualitative social science studies of medical practice, video has proved less pervasive, despite its obvious advantages. METHODS: In this paper, we sketch an approach to using video to inform the analysis of medical practice and the ways in which health care is accomplished through social interaction and collaboration. Drawing on our own research, we discuss two brief examples: the first involves the use of computing technology in primary health care and the second concerns informal instruction during surgery. The examples illustrate the multimodal character of medical work, how activities are accomplished through the interplay of talk, the visual and the use of material artefacts. They also illustrate the ways in which video provides access to the complex forms of social interaction and collaboration that underpin health care. DISCUSSION: We reflect upon the research opportunities afforded by video and the ways in which video-based studies of interaction can contribute to the practice and practicalities of medicine.

Predictive data mining in clinical medicine: current issues and guidelines.

BACKGROUND: The widespread availability of new computational methods and tools for data analysis and predictive modeling requires medical informatics researchers and practitioners to systematically select the most appropriate strategy to cope with clinical prediction problems. In particular, the collection of methods known as 'data mining' offers methodological and technical solutions to deal with the analysis of medical data and construction of prediction models. A large variety of these methods requires general and simple guidelines that may help practitioners in the appropriate selection of data mining tools, construction and validation of predictive models, along with the dissemination of predictive models within clinical environments. PURPOSE: The goal of this review is to discuss the extent and role of the research area of predictive data mining and to propose a framework to cope with the problems of constructing, assessing and exploiting data mining models in clinical medicine. METHODS: We review the recent relevant work published in the area of predictive data mining in clinical medicine, highlighting critical issues and summarizing the approaches in a set of learned lessons. RESULTS: The paper provides a comprehensive review of the state of the art of predictive data mining in clinical medicine and gives guidelines to carry out data mining studies in this field. CONCLUSIONS: Predictive data mining is becoming an essential instrument for researchers and clinical practitioners in medicine. Understanding the main issues underlying these methods and the application of agreed and standardized procedures is mandatory for their deployment and the dissemination of results. Thanks to the integration of molecular and clinical data taking place within genomic medicine, the area has recently not only gained a fresh impulse but also a new set of complex problems it needs to address.
