Description : « Entre soutien, bienveillance, vigilance, méfiance ou parfois même réticence, les représentants locaux de l'Etat occupent ainsi une place et jouent un rôle variable selon les périodes, les conceptions de l'Etat et les organisations régionales concernées. En adoptant une démarche comparatiste sans pour autant négliger la question préfectorale dans le cas français, nous tenterons ainsi de modéliser le rôle assigné à ces représentants locaux des Etats centraux, partagés entre le seul respect de la légalité nationale et la promotion de coopérations internationales décentralisées. »

Résumé : International audience
BACKGROUND: Women of reproductive age can be exposed to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) at work, and exposure to EDCs in pregnancy may affect fetal growth. OBJECTIVES: We assessed whether maternal occupational exposure to EDCs during pregnancy as classified by application of a job exposure matrix was associated with birth weight, term low birth weight (LBW), length of gestation, and preterm delivery. METHODS: Using individual participant data from 133,957 mother-child pairs in 13 European cohorts spanning births from 1994 through 2011, we linked maternal job titles with exposure to 10 EDC groups as assessed through a job exposure matrix. For each group, we combined the two levels of exposure categories (possible and probable) and compared birth outcomes with the unexposed group (exposure unlikely). We performed meta-analyses of cohort-specific estimates. RESULTS: Eleven percent of pregnant women were classified as exposed to EDCs at work during pregnancy, based on job title. Classification of exposure to one or more EDC group was associated with an increased risk of term LBW [odds ratio (OR) = 1.25; 95% CI: 1.04, 1.49], as were most specific EDC groups; this association was consistent across cohorts. Further, the risk increased with increasing number of EDC groups (OR = 2.11; 95% CI: 1.10, 4.06 for exposure to four or more EDC groups). There were few associations (p < 0.05) with the other outcomes; women holding job titles classified as exposed to bisphenol A or brominated flame retardants were at higher risk for longer length of gestation. CONCLUSION: Results from our large population-based birth cohort design indicate that employment during pregnancy in occupations classified as possibly or probably exposed to EDCs was associated with an increased risk of term LBW.

Résumé : International audience
Occupational exposure constitutes a common risk factor for lung cancer. We observed molecular alterations in 73% of never-smokers, 35% of men and 8% of women were exposed to at least one occupational carcinogen. We report herein associations between molecular patterns and occupational exposure.BioCAST was a cohort study of lung cancer in never-smokers that reported risk factor exposure and molecular patterns. Occupational exposure was assessed via a validated 71-item questionnaire. Patients were categorised into groups that were unexposed and exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), asbestos, silica, diesel exhaust fumes (DEF), chrome and paints. Test results were recorded for EGFR, KRAS, HER2, BRAF and PIK3 mutations, and ALK alterations.Overall, 313 out of 384 patients included in BioCAST were analysed. Asbestos-exposed patients displayed a significantly lower rate of EGFR mutations (20% versus 44%, p=0.033), and a higher rate of HER2 mutations (18% versus 4%, p=0.084). ALK alterations were not associated with any occupational carcinogens. The DEF-exposed patients were diagnosed with a BRAF mutation in 25% of all cases. Chrome-exposed patients exhibited enhanced HER2 and PIK3 mutation frequency.Given its minimal effects in the subgroups, we conclude that occupational exposure slightly affects the molecular pattern of lung cancers in never-smokers. In particular, asbestos-exposed patients have a lower chance of EGFR mutations.

Résumé : This report presents, in two parts, the results of a study carried out on the coast of Martinique, during 1993. The first part presents the evolution of perceptions and uses of coastal areas, linked to the socio-economic transformations of the island. Completing this presentation, based on the analysis of management plans from different periods, an overview of the recent state of occupation of coastal areas in Martinique is also given. The second part presents four case studies of conflictual situations concerning access to coastal areas, on l and and at sea, considering differents types of activities and decision-making processes. For each case study, an investigation has been conducted to identify implied actors, their motivations and strategies, as well as the mechanisms by which conflict appears and evolves.
Le rapport présente, en deux parties, les résultats d'une étude menée sur le littoral de Martinique en 1993. La première partie présente l'évolution des perceptions et des modes d'usage de la zone côtière, liée aux transformations socio-économiques ayant marqué l'île. Cette présentation, s'appuyant sur l'analyse de documents d'aménagement de différentes époques, est complétée par un état des lieux récent de l'occupation de la bande côtière de l'île. La seconde partie présente quatre études de situations conflictuelles pour l'accès à l'espace littoral, terrestre et marin, considérant des types d'usage et des processus décisionnels différents. Pour chacun de ces cas d'étude, un travail d'enquête a permis de repérer les acteurs impliqués, leurs motivations et stratégies, ainsi que d'approcher les mécanismes décisionnels par lesquels le conflit apparaît et évolue.

Résumé : International audience
BACKGROUND: The association between lung cancer and occupational exposure to organic solvents is discussed. Since different solvents are often used simultaneously, it is difficult to assess the role of individual substances. OBJECTIVES: The present study is focused on an in-depth investigation of the potential association between lung cancer risk and occupational exposure to a large group of organic solvents, taking into account the well-known risk factors for lung cancer, tobacco smoking and occupational exposure to asbestos. METHODS: We analysed data from the Investigation of occupational and environmental causes of respiratory cancers (ICARE) study, a large French population-based case-control study, set up between 2001 and 2007. A total of 2276 male cases and 2780 male controls were interviewed, and long-life occupational history was collected. In order to overcome the analytical difficulties created by multiple correlated exposures, we carried out a novel type of analysis based on Bayesian profile regression. RESULTS: After analysis with conventional logistic regression methods, none of the 11 solvents examined were associated with lung cancer risk. Through a profile regression approach, we did not observe any significant association between solvent exposure and lung cancer. However, we identified clusters at high risk that are related to occupations known to be at risk of developing lung cancer, such as painters. CONCLUSIONS: Organic solvents do not appear to be substantial contributors to the occupational risk of lung cancer for the occupations known to be at risk

Résumé : International audience
CONTEXT: Chlordecone, an environmentally persistent organochlorine insecticide used intensively in banana culture in the French West Indies until 1993, has permanently polluted soils and contaminated foodstuffs. Consumption of contaminated food is the main source of exposure nowadays. We sought to identify main contributors to blood chlordecone concentration (BCC) and to validate an exposure indicator based on food intakes. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We used a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) completed by a sample of 194 pregnant women to estimate their dietary exposure to chlordecone and compared it to blood levels. In a first approach, chlordecone daily intake was estimated as the product of daily eaten quantity of 214 foodstuffs, multiplied by their chlordecone content, and summed over all items. We then predicted individual blood chlordecone concentration with empirical weight regression models based on frequency of food consumption, and without contamination data. RESULTS: Among the 191 subjects who had BCC determination, 146 (76%) had detectable values and mean BCC was 0.86 ng/mL (range < LOD-13.2). Mean per capita dietary intake of chlordecone was estimated at 3.3 microg/day (range: 0.1-22.2). Blood chlordecone levels were significantly correlated with food exposure predicted from the empirical weight models (r=0.47, p<0.0001) and, to a lesser extent, with chlordecone intake estimated from food consumption and food contamination data (r=0.20, p=0.007). Main contributors to chlordecone exposure included seafood, root vegetables, and Cucurbitaceous. CONCLUSION: These results show that the Timoun FFQ provides valid estimates of chlordecone exposure. Estimates from empirical weight models correlated better with blood levels of chlordecone than did estimates from the dietary intake assessment.

Résumé : National audience
INTRODUCTION:The AIRBAg study screens for bronchial obstruction in dairy farmers. We present the preliminary results after one year.METHODS:A prospective screening study based on questionnaires and electronic mini-spirometry (Néo-6(®)) that includes a representative sample of dairy farmers from the departments of Morbihan and Île-et-Vilaine in Brittany. The dairy farmers had an occupational medicine appointment and, if they demonstrated at least one marker of possible bronchial obstruction (chronic cough, chronic bronchitis, dyspnoea, wheezing, FEV1/FEV6<0.8), they were referred to a pulmonologist. The data we present here were extracted from the occupational medicine appointments because the pulmonologists' appointments are still running.RESULTS:Among the 277 dairy farmers included, 125 (45%) demonstrated "possible bronchial obstruction". The total score of the CAT questionnaire was higher in these farmers (9.1±6.2 versus 5.8±4.0; P<0.0001). In multivariate analysis markers of "possible bronchial obstruction" were eczema, manual foddering and duration of mechanical straw litter spreading.CONCLUSION:Occupational medicine appointments identified markers of "possible bronchial obstruction". We will have the complete results from AIRBAg study in 2015.

Résumé : International audience
Aujourd'hui, les traces de la présence amérindienne en Martinique constituent, en dehors des pétroglyphes de la forêt de Montravail et des pièces exposées dans les musées de l'île, un patrimoine invisible. Cependant, avant son invasion par les européens cette île a bien été pendant au moins 1500 ans terre amérindienne. Pendant dix années, entre 1995 et 2005, une équipe pluridisciplinaire internationale a ainsi travaillée à étudier l'occupation précolombienne de la Martinique. Ce programme initialement dirigé par J.-P. Giraud puis par Benoît Bérard a été menée dans le cadre d'un Projet Collectif de Recherche intitulé "Le néolithique martiniquais dans son contexte antillais" agréé par le Ministère de la Culture et de la Communication et financé par la Direction des Affaires Culturelle de la Martinique. La synthèse des résultats de ces travaux a été présentée au public martiniquais dans le cadre d'un séminaire international qui s'est tenu à Fort-de-France en mai 2007 avec le soutient du Conseil Général. Elle constitue le cœur de cet ouvrage. Elle a été complétée par un certain nombre de contributions permettant une mise en perspectives des résultats obtenus. Ce volume se divise en trois parties. La première fait un état des lieux de la connaissance sur les différentes cultures précolombiennes qui se sont succédées dans l'île au travers de la présentation de plusieurs sites de références. Elle se conclue par un regard historique qui grâce au récit de l'incroyable vie de Francisco Congo illustre les contacts entre populations amérindiennes, africaines et européennes au début de la colonisation et nous offre des informations inédites sur l'origine de la communauté des Caraïbes noirs de Saint-Vincent. La seconde partie de l'ouvrage présente un bilan des connaissances sur la relation entre les amérindiens et leur environnement naturel au travers d'études archéo-vulcanologiques, archéo-zoologiques et paléo-ethnobotaniques. Ce recours aux sciences paléo-environnementales offre pour la première fois la possibilité d'une réelle approche historicisée de cette relation. Enfin, parce ce que la division géopolitique coloniale et post-coloniale de l'archipel antillais n'a pas de sens appliquée à l'étude de son peuplement précolombien, il nous est apparu essentiel de conclure cet ouvrage par une ouverture sur les îles voisines en particulier la Dominique et la Guadeloupe. Cela nous fait entrer dans cette perspective archipélique qui guide aujourd'hui le travail des archéologues. Cet ouvrage est le premier volume synthétique sur l'occupation amérindienne de la Martinique publié depuis des décennies. Par son sérieux et son accessibilité il met enfin à la disposition d'un public de spécialistes et de non-spécialistes un bilan des dernières connaissances produites. Il répond en cela tant à un besoin scientifique qu'à une réelle demande sociale.

Résumé : International audience
We assessed whether maternal employment during pregnancy - overall and in selected occupational sectors - is associated with birth weight, small for gestational age (SGA), term low birth weight (LBW), length of gestation, and preterm delivery in a population-based birth cohort design. We used data from >200 000 mother-child pairs enrolled in 13 European birth cohorts and compared employed versus non-employed women. Among employees, we defined groups of occupations representing the main sectors of employment for women where potential reproductive hazards are considered to be present. The comparison group comprised all other employed women not included in the occupational sector being assessed. We performed meta-analyses of cohort-specific estimates and explored heterogeneity. Employees had a lower risk of preterm delivery than non-employees [adjusted odds ratio (OR adj) 0.86, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.81-0.91]. Working in most of the occupational sectors studied was not associated with adverse birth outcomes. Being employed as a nurse was associated with lower risk SGA infants (OR adj0.91, 95% CI 0.84-0.99) whereas food industry workers had an increased risk of preterm delivery (OR adj1.50, 95% CI 1.12-2.02). There was little evidence for heterogeneity between cohorts. This study suggests that, overall, employment during pregnancy is associated with a reduction in the risk of preterm birth and that work in certain occupations may affect pregnancy outcomes. This exploratory study provides an important platform on which to base further prospective studies focused on the potential consequences of maternal occupational exposures during pregnancy on child development.
