Background: A previous clinical study showed the high specificity, sensitivity and reliability of MSCopilot, a software medical device designed by Ad Scientiam for the self-assessment of people with Multiple Sclerosis (PwMS), compared to the traditional Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFC). We conducted further analyses to assess MSCopilot's performance with respect to the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS).

Methods: The data of 116 PwMS were analysed.

Background And Purpose: Assessing patients' disability in multiple sclerosis (MS) requires time-consuming batteries of hospital tests. MSCopilot is a software medical device for the self-assessment of patients with MS (PwMS), combining four tests: walking, dexterity, cognition and low contrast vision. The objective was to validate MSCopilot versus the Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFC).

The viscoelastic behaviour of cellulose acetate with a degree of substitution (DS) of 245 plasticized by triacetin was studied at short times by dynamic oscillatory measurements. Two distinct regimes and unexpected scaling behaviour according to plasticizer content were highlighted. The dynamics of chains and their structural organization are not modified up to 35 wt% of triacetin.

Objectives: To evaluate the dolutegravir+lamivudine combination in virologically suppressed patients living with HIV.

Methods: The ANRS 167 LAMIDOL trial was an open-label, single arm, multicentre trial assessing once-daily dolutegravir (50 mg)+lamivudine (300 mg) in virologically suppressed HIV-1 patients on first-line triple-drug regimens. The main criteria for inclusion in the trial were plasma viral load (pVL) ≤50 copies/mL for ≥2 years, CD4 nadir >200 cells/mm3 and WT HIV prior to treatment initiation.
