Short term results of anatomic stemless shoulder replacement with peripheral neck fixation.

Background: Most of the current stemless implants are using a central neck fixation design. Easytech Stemless replacements (FX Solutions®, Viriat, France) were developed promoting the idea of peripheral fixation of the stemless implant. The aim of this study was to analyze clinical and radiological results of this stemless TSA implanted for osteoarthritis (OA).

Mid-Term to Long-Term Follow-Up of Stemless Anatomic Total Shoulder Arthroplasty.

Background: The purpose was to report mid-term to long-term clinical outcomes in a multicentre series of patients who received stemless total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). The hypothesis was that stemless TSA would be a safe and effective treatment with satisfactory clinical outcomes.

Methods: Authors retrospectively reviewed records of 62 stemless TSAs implanted between March 2013 and December 2014.

Stemless reverse shoulder arthroplasty: clinical and radiologic outcomes with minimum 2 years' follow-up.

Background: Recently, a stemless reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) design was developed to preserve bone stock. Clinical and radiologic studies of this design in larger cohorts with >100 patients are not frequent. The purpose of this study was to present the clinical and radiologic results of a newly developed stemless RSA implant.

Critical structural elements for the antigenicity of wheat allergen LTP1 (Tri a 14) revealed by site-directed mutagenesis.

Lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) were identified as allergens in a large variety of pollens and foods, including cereals. LTPs belong to the prolamin superfamily and display an α-helical fold, with a bundle of four α-helices held together by four disulfide bonds. Wheat LTP1 is involved in allergic reactions to food.

Exploring the factors influencing adherence to oral anticancer drugs in patients with digestive cancer: a qualitative study.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to explore the beliefs, perceptions and representations of patients in order to identify the determinants of oral anticancer drugs adherence and to take action in current practice to improve patient support in digestive oncology.

Methods: We constructed a semi-directed interview guide which aimed to explore the patient's relationship with medication, their health history, their experiences at the time of the announcement of treatment, their confidence, their fears, their motivations to adhere to their treatment and the constraints linked to their treatment. The data were analysed and discussed using a thematic approach.

Is surgery needed for displaced olecranon fractures in patients aged 75 years or over?

Background: For displaced olecranon fractures, surgery is the standard of care in young adults but remains controversial in patients aged 75 years or over. The objective of this study was to assess the functional and radiological outcomes and to describe the complications of surgical treatment in this older population.

Hypothesis: Surgery is the optimal treatment for displaced olecranon fractures in patients aged 75 years or over.

A Proposal from the Montpellier World Health Organization Collaborating Centre for Better Management and Prevention of Anaphylaxis.

Since the first description of anaphylaxis in 1902, its clinical importance as an emergency condition has been recognized worldwide. Anaphylaxis is a severe, potentially life-threatening systemic hypersensitivity reaction characterized by rapid onset and the potential to endanger life through respiratory or circulatory compromise. It is usually, although not always, associated with skin and mucosal changes.

Tuberosity healing in reverse shoulder arthroplasty in traumatology: Use of an offset modular system with bone graft.

Introduction: Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) has become a common treatment in displaced proximal humeral fracture (PHF) in elderly patients due to inconstant results with osteosynthesis or hemiarthroplasty. RSA allows a good anterior elevation but rotational results are more random and depend on tuberosity healing.

Hypothesis: Use of an offset modular system (OMS) on the prothesis improve tuberosity healing and functional results.

Transcriptional frameshifts contribute to protein allergenicity.

Transcription infidelity (TI) is a mechanism that increases RNA and protein diversity. We found that single-base omissions (i.e.

Case Report of an Injectional Anthrax in France, 2012.

(1) Background: is a spore-forming, Gram-positive bacterium causing anthrax, a zoonosis affecting mainly livestock. When occasionally infecting humans, provokes three different clinical forms: cutaneous, digestive and inhalational anthrax. More recently, an injectional anthrax form has been described in intravenous drug users.

Food-induced anaphylaxis in infancy compared to preschool age: A retrospective analysis.

Objective: Little is known regarding food anaphylaxis in infancy. We aimed to describe specificities of food anaphylaxis in infants (≤12 months) as compared to preschool children (1-6 years).

Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of all food anaphylaxis cases recorded by the Allergy Vigilance Network from 2002 to 2018, in preschool children focusing on infants.

Anaphylaxis to Beluga caviar.

Fish roe is an extremely rare cause of anaphylaxis and although its consumption has increased in recent years. We described the case of a 59-year-old man, who experienced an anaphylactic reaction after consuming caviar. Skin prick-test were performed with Beluga caviar, salmon caviar, cod, salmon, hen egg yolk and egg white, ovalbumin, ovomucoid, shrimp and mold.

Bradykinin mediated angioedema (BK-AE) can be associated either with C1Inhibitor deficiency (hereditary and acquired forms), either with normal C1Inh (hereditary form and drug induced AE as angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors…). In case of high clinical suspicion of BK-AE, C1Inh exploration must be done at first: C1Inh function and antigenemy as well as C4 concentration. C1Inh deficiency is significant if the tests are below 50 % of the normal values and controlled a second time.

Epidemiological Data on Anaphylaxis in French Emergency Departments.

Background: Although anaphylaxis has been considered a priority public health issue in the world allergy community, epidemiological data on morbidity and mortality remain suboptimal. We performed the first multicenter epidemiological study in French emergency departments (EDs). The study covered 7 EDs over a period of 1 year.

Food-induced fatal anaphylaxis: From epidemiological data to general prevention strategies.

Background: Anaphylaxis hospitalizations are increasing in many countries, in particular for medication and food triggers in young children. Food-related anaphylaxis remains an uncommon cause of death, but a significant proportion of these are preventable.

Aim: To review published epidemiological data relating to food-induced anaphylaxis and potential risk factors of fatal and/or near-fatal anaphylaxis cases, in order to provide strategies to reduce the risk of severe adverse outcomes in food anaphylaxis.

Chronic anterior shoulder instability with significant Hill-Sachs lesion: Arthroscopic Bankart with remplissage versus open Latarjet procedure.

Background: The objective of this study was to compare short-term shoulder stability after arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage versus the open Latarjet procedure in patients who had chronic anterior shoulder instability with a significant Hill-Sachs lesion.

Hypothesis: The dislocation recurrence rate is higher after Bankart repair with remplissage than after open Latarjet.

Patients And Methods: An observational non-randomised retrospective cohort study was conducted at two surgical centres in patients treated for chronic anterior shoulder instability with a significant Hill-Sachs defect between January 2009 and July 2014.

[The role of short Telegraph nail in the treatment of fractures of the upper end of the humerus: about 19 cases].

The fracture of the upper end of the humerus is the third most frequent fracture in the elderly and its distribution is bimodal, preferentially affecting osteoporotic elderly patients after low energy trauma or, more rarely, young subjects as a consequence of severe kinetic mechanism The treatment of complex fractures of the proximal humerus is the subject of much controversy. Telegraph nail is a highly effective therapeutic approach for displaced fractures of the upper end of the humerus. Surgical procedure is easy but with a learning curve; it allows to start rehabilitation protocol immediately after surgery.

Severe anaphylaxis to Propofol: first case of evidence of sensitization to soy oil.

The growing worldwide prevalence of food allergies is drawing attention to the risk of allergenic proteins found in intravenous medicinal products, particularly anaesthetics. Propofol induced anaphylaxis has been described. The presence of soybean oil and egg lecithins in the lipid emulsion highlights their suspected responsibility in certain cases.
