Piqûres malveillantes : enjeux médicaux et sociaux

2026

Abstract

Le phénomène des piqûres malveillantes implique l’acte de ponctionner une personne avec un objet pointu sans son consentement, souvent dans un milieu festif. Lors de leurs consultations, les personnes victimes de cette forme d’agression s’inquiètent de l’administration de substance pouvant mener à une soumission chimique, de la transmission d’agents pathogènes (VIH, hépatites B et C) et de l’atteinte à leur intégrité corporelle. Le vécu du patient et les représentations sociales de ces risques doivent inciter le soignant à adopter une posture d’écoute, d’humanité et de bienveillance, en parallèle à une évaluation clinique et biologique. Dans cet article, une synthèse des implications de ce phénomène, à la croisée des dimensions médicales et sociales, est proposée.

Transmission electron microscopy

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is a microscopy technique in which a beam of electrons is transmitted through a specimen to form an image. The specimen is most often an ultrathin section less than 100 nm thick or a suspension on a grid. An image is formed from the interaction of the electrons with the sample as the beam is transmitted through the specimen. The image is then magnified and focused onto an imaging device, such as a fluorescent screen, a layer of photographic film, or a sensor such as a scintillator attached to a charge-coupled device.

Gift

A gift or a present is an item given to someone without the expectation of payment or anything in return. An item is not a gift if that item is already owned by the one to whom it is given. Although gift-giving might involve an expectation of reciprocity, a gift is meant to be free. In many countries, the act of mutually exchanging money, goods, etc. may sustain social relations and contribute to social cohesion. Economists have elaborated the economics of gift-giving into the notion of a gift economy.
