The fountains' beauty is very important in Versailles gardens, but many efforts were necessary to realize it. Among a lot of essays, the Marly Machine pleased best Louis XIV. The researchers disagree ...about this machine's attribution, generally, it is believed that Renkin Sualem, expert engineer, was its author. This paper's issue is to survey this polemic since the eighteenth century and to manifest the present writer's opinion. As a result, the problem is in De Ville's knowledge about the hydraulics. Considered that he was industrial bourgeois and educated by the Jesuit, his participation in the technical conception wouldn't be denied.
The fountains' beauty is very important in Versailles gardens and many efforts were necessary to realize it Among a lot of essays, the Marly Machine pleased best Louis XIV. In this paper, the ...Machine's architecture, its technological sources and fruits, the Marly Machine's status on the history of mechanical technology are presented and examined. Several drainage arts in the Walloon mines were indeed applied to the Machine composed of fourteen wheels and approximately 250 pumps. It is pointed that its technique was not revolutionary and that the meaning of Marly Machine can not be clarified by the technological research.
Long-term adefovir administration has been reported overseas to induce renal impairment in a certain percentage of patients. In Japan, its influences on renal function are unclear. In patients ...continuously treated with nucleotide analogues, we compared changes in the serum creatinine level and estimated glomerular filtration rate among patients in the control and treated and not treated with adefovir. The group treated with adefovir showed a significant increase in the serum creatinine level and a significant decrease in the estimated glomerular filtration rate compared with the group not receiving adefovir (p<0.001). There were no significant differences in these changes between the control and the group not receiving adefovir. Logistic regression analysis revealed adefovir administration to be a significant factor (odds ratio, 6.6), inducing a ≥20% decrease in the estimated glomerular filtration rate. In patients in whom daily was changed to alternate-day adefovir administration due to renal impairment, the serum creatinine level gradually decreased, suggesting that renal impairment is reversible.
The maniere de mantrer les jardins de Versailles edited by Louis XIV represents his thought on the gardens and their observation. This paper's issue is to clarify the natures of this guide, here ...translated in Japanese, and of the visit method, comparing with the verse by La Fontaine. Firstly, its style is very simple, composed only of the enumeration of objects among which the fountains' beauty is insisted. Secondly, its promenade is static, i. e. it consists of special points to stop and to view, but the method for the bassins or the parterres is different from for the bosquets.
Certain researchers studied on the history of the chateau-neuf of Versailles, the enveloppe by Le Vau. But they haven't any harmony with themselves about the traitement of the Louis XHTs chateau and ...the first design for the chateau-neuf. It is for the difficulty of three Colbert's documents. For resolve these problems, one must compare the analyses of the documents in the former researchs one of which, measuring the chateau, clarified that one wanted to conserve the Louis XIITs chateau. And some measurements given by Colbert indicate that there was an another precedant plan that one can reconstruct by these.

The issue of ...this paper is a iconographical change of its plafond andits influences on the relation between the chateau and the gardens. At first, Apollonian themes were projected, but they werereplaced by Herculean myth, finally, by the histoire du Roi. The first plan that connects with the gardens' subjects as the palaisdu Soleil's keystone was abandoned and the harmony of the composition wasn't achieved.
