10. Gene therapy for adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD)N. L., J.-P. A., K. P. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1/2 A. les mots-clés sont faibles. Si des synonymes à ALD ont été trouvés, il n'en va pas de même pour considérer les types d'antiviraux employés. 0/2 B. La grammaire des équations correspondant aux mots-clés n'est pas maîtrisée. Les synonmes de ALD n'ont pas été utilisés (!) dans les équations en association avec d'autres mots-clés pouvant restreindre le nombre de résultats. L'utilisation des mots-clés a certainement contribué à trouver des références intéressantes, mais les équations données dans le wiki ne permettent de faire de la recherche d'information
1/2 C. Outils: plusieurs outils ont été explorés, mais on ne peut pas reproduire les recherches à partir des 2 équations suggérées, car elles ne fonctionnent pas. On en déduit que les références ont été trouvées à partir de mots-clés, et que ensuite, il y a eu des tentatives de reconstitution d'équations... 2/2 D. Les références bibliographiques sont correctes
2/2 E. Les citations dans le texte des réponses à la question sont correctes 1/2 F. La restitution de la démarche documentaire ou méthodologie de recherche d'information est difficile à suivre. Il y a beaucoup d'imprécision, il est difficile pour le lecteur de comprendre vraiment quels équations ont été testées.

10.1 What is ALD, from the "National Institute of Neurological Discorders and Stroke" Synonym Krabbe's disease, Leukodystrophy (NOS, globoid cell, metachromatic, sudanophilic, Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease, Sulfatide lipidosis) What is Adrenoleukodystrophy? Myelin loss in X-ALD (represented here in absence of white matter in right hemisphere) is due to two causes, chemical imbalance and inflammation. Available on <http://www.neuropathologyweb.org/chapter10> (accessed 9/11/2008) The most common is the X-linked form (X-ALD), which is caused by the mutated gene ABCD1 located on the X-chromosome. Since men only have one X-chromosome, they are more severely affected. Onset of X-ALD can occur in childhood or in adulthood. The childhood form is the most severe, with onset between ages 4 and 10. The most common symptoms are usually behavioral changes such as abnormal withdrawal or aggression, poor memory, and poor school performance. Other symptoms include visual loss, learning disabilities, seizures, poorly articulated speech, difficulty swallowing, deafness, disturbances of gait and coordination, fatigue, intermittent vomiting, increased skin pigmentation, and progressive dementia. In the milder adult-onset form, which typically begins between ages 21 and 35, symptoms may include progressive stiffness, weakness or paralysis of the lower limbs, and ataxia. Although adult-onset ALD progresses more slowly than the classic childhood form, it can also result in deterioration of brain function. A mild form of ALD is occasionally seen in women who are carriers of the disorder. Symptoms include progressive stiffness, weakness or paralysis of the lower limbs, ataxia, excessive muscle tone, mild peripheral neuropathy, and urinary problems. HORS-SUJET! Is there any treatment? What is the prognosis? HORS-SUJET! What research is being done?
10.2 Preliminary considerationsQuestion addressed What is the status of treating ALD by gene therapy with lentiviruses? Information to gather Scientific articles, reviews, updates on clinical trials, congresses, symposiums, foundations. Keywords adrenoleukodystrophy, ALD, x-linked, gene therapy, lentivirus, HIV, review, clinical trial(s) [Remark: Alternative names for the disease or its forms exist (adrenomyeloneuropathy, addison disease, childhood cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy, schilder-addison complex) but searches with adrenoleukodystrophy and ALD generated already countless hits so that we did not consider these.] NON! par l'équation (ALD OR adrenoleukodystrophy OR "addison disease" OR "schilder-addison complex" OR X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy ) AND lentivir* dans Web of science donne 8 résultats pertinents! La formation s'est évertuée à montrer l'importance des synonymes en recherche documentaire dans des moteurs de recherche aussi bien que dans les BDB! Equations 1) "Aubourg P"[auth] gene therapy 2) "ALD" AND "lentivirus" AND "gene therapy" or "ALD" AND "HIV" AND "gene therapy" - dans l'équation, les guillements de "ALD" ne servent à rien.
