Article Synopsis
- Congenital ocular anomalies (COA) are a leading cause of visual impairment in children in high-income countries, and this study aimed to evaluate their prevalence in European registries.
- Data from 19 EUROmediCAT registries and one healthcare database revealed a prevalence of COA at 3.47 cases per 10,000 births, with congenital lens anomalies being the most common type.
- The findings suggest the need for better screening and early diagnosis of COA, highlighting the importance of large-scale epidemiological studies for understanding these conditions.
Article Synopsis
- Respiratory tract disorders are common in children, yet there is limited data on how respiratory medications are prescribed to them in France, leading to this study focusing on a specific cohort.
- Utilizing data from the POMME birth cohort, the study found that a significant majority (83.1%) of the 5956 children received prescriptions for respiratory medications, predominantly inhaled corticosteroids (ICSs).
- The findings indicated a notable rate of off-label prescriptions, especially in younger children, highlighting the need for further research and clinical guidance regarding appropriate medication usage in pediatric patients.
The objective of this cohort study was to describe the French population of pregnant women vaccinated against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), their pregnancy outcomes and the health status of their newborns (malformation rate, neonatal diseases, etc.), and to proactively collect and analyze reported adverse reactions over time. We conducted a prospective study using an online questionnaire.

Methods: We conducted a case-control study using the EFEMERIS cohort, a database containing pregnancies registered in Haute-Garonne and their outcomes. We collected OA descriptions of fetuses at the time of pregnancy termination or of children at birth and the results of eye examinations of children at 9 months and 2 years of age.
