La Fondation Universitaire peut accorder des subsides pour promouvoir la publication d'articles scientifiques dans des revues internationales. Ces subsides sont destinés exclusivement à faciliter la publication d'articles scientifiques qui découlent de recherches conduites dans une unité de recherche belge.
ATTENTION : Les demandes de subside pour les frais de publication d'articles scientifiques doivent être soumises par le biais d'un nouveau système " en ligne ". Ce système facilite le travail des demandeurs et du secrétariat de la Fondation Universitaire.
Suivez ce lien au système de soumission, où le règlement, une description de la procédure et les formulaires de soumission " en ligne " sont disponibles.
Merci d'envoyer vos remarques sur le système en ligne, les corrections et les ajustements souhaités à fu.us@universityfoundation.be.
Ce qui suit est une liste d'articles scientifiques auxquelles une subvention a été accordée par la Fondation Universitaire. Les articles sont triés par année de publication et par titre.
Nivelle R. et al. (2019) Temperature preference of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) juveniles induces spontaneous sex reversal. PLoS ONE 14(2): e0212504. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0212504
Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is an African freshwater fish that displays a genetic sex determination system (XX|XY) where high temperatures (above 32°C to 36.5°C) induce masculinization. In Nile tilapia, the thermosensitive period was reported from 10 to 30 days post fertilization. In their natural environment, juveniles may encounter high temperatures that are above the optimal temperature for growth (27–30°C). The relevance of the thermal sex reversal mechanism in a natural context remains unclear.

Vanbutsele, G. et al. (2019) Use and timing of referral to specialized palliative care services for people with cancer: A mortality follow-back study among treating physicians in Belgium. Plos One.
Background
Referral to specialized palliative care services (SPCS) occurs often late in the illness trajectory but may differ across cancer types. We examined differences between cancer types in the use and timing of referral to specialized palliative care services (SPCS) and in the reasons for non-referral.

Seret, J. et al. (2019) What Means A Quality Professional–Patient Relationship From The Asthmatic Patients’ Perspective? A Narrative Review Of Their Needs And Expectations, Patient Preference and Adherence, 13: 1951-1960, https://doi.org/10.2147/PPA.S213545
Introduction: Poor treatment adherence among asthmatic patients currently remains a public health challenge. One of the most quoted determinants is the quality of the professional–patient relationship although it has clearly not been fully described.
Purpose: This study aims at deeply exploring asthmatic patients’ needs and expectations about the accompaniment proposed by their healthcare professionals.
Methods: A rigorous narrative review was performed.
Dierickx, S. et al.(2019) Women with infertility complying with and resisting polygyny: an explorative qualitative study in urban Gambia. Reproductive Health vol .16, art. 103.
In many low-and middle-income countries women with infertility are often in polygynous marriages (i.e. marriages wherein men have multiple wives). In general, the practice of polygyny is understood to be harmful for women as it would have a negative impact on their health and general well-being. The purpose of this qualitative study is to explore how women with infertility experience polygyny and to understand their decision-making regarding these marriages. In-depth interviews were conducted between October 2017 and May 2018 in urban Gambia.
Philippaert, K. et al. (2018) A Thallium-Based Screening Procedure to Identify Molecules That Modulate the Activity of Ca2+-Activated Monovalent Cation-Selective Channels. SLAS Discovery.
TRPM5 functions as a calcium-activated monovalent cation-selective ion channel and is expressed in a variety of cell types. Dysfunction of this type of channel has been recently implied in cardiac arrhythmias, diabetes, and other pathologies. Therefore, a growing interest has emerged to develop the pharmacology of these ion channels. We optimized a screening assay based on the thallium flux through the TRPM5 channel and a fluorescent thallium dye as a probe for channel activity.
Klaas M. et al (2018) Acute Effect of Noradrenergic Modulation on Motor Output Adjustment in Men. Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise.
Purpose: To determine the role of noradrenergic modulation in the control of motor output, we compared the acute effect of Reboxetine (REB), a noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, to a placebo (PLA) on knee extensors motor performance and cortical and spinal excitability.
Piers, R. et al (2018) Advance care planning in dementia: recommendations for healthcare professionals. BMC Palliative Care, 2018, 17:88, https://doi.org/10.1186/s12904-018-0332-2
Background: Advance care planning (ACP) is a continuous, dynamic process of reflection and dialogue between an individual, those close to them and their healthcare professionals, concerning the individual’s preferences and values concerning future treatment and care, including end-of-life care.
Laokri, S. et al (2018) Assessing out-of-pocket expenditures for primary health care: how responsive is the Democratic Republic of Congo health system to providing financial risk protection? BMC Health Services Research.
Background: The goal of universal health coverage is challenging for chronically under-resourced health systems. Although household out-of-pocket payments are the most important source of health financing in low-income countries, relatively little is known about the drivers of primary health care expenditure and the predictability of the burden associated with high fee-for-service payments.
Biset, N. et al. (2018) Assessment of medication adherence and responsible use of isotretinoin and contraception through Belgian community pharmacies by using pharmacy refill data. Patient Preference and Adherence 12 153–161.
Purpose: The aims of the study were to evaluate medication adherence and the influencing factors for isotretinoin and contraception (oral, patches, and rings) and to evaluate the concomitant use of contraception and isotretinoin.
Faict, S. et al. (2018) Exosomes play a role in multiple myeloma bone disease and tumor development by targeting osteoclasts and osteoblasts. Blood Cancer Journal 8:105
Progression of multiple myeloma (MM) is largely dependent on the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment wherein communication through different factors including extracellular vesicles takes place. This cross-talk not only leads to drug resistance but also to the development of osteolysis. Targeting vesicle secretion could therefore simultaneously ameliorate drug response and bone disease. In this paper, we examined the effects of MM exosomes on different aspects of osteolysis using the 5TGM1 murine model.
