Background: To assess current practice regarding the management of rheumatoid arthritis patients among general practitioners of a French region, and their perception about the deployment of a multidisciplinary collaboration.
Methods: A cross-sectional online survey was sent to the general practitioners of a French region. The questionnaire comprised of 3 sections to collect data regarding 1/demographics, 2/practice and knowledge in rheumatoid arthritis, and 3/perception about the deployment of a multidisciplinary collaboration.
Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of pharmacist-led patient interviews upon admission to a rheumatology department, focusing on simplifying the medication reconciliation process.
- - Conducted at a French university hospital between 2015 and 2017, the study revealed that out of 247 interviews, many uncovered new medication information and identified a significant number of medication errors.
- - The results showed that these interviews effectively detected medication errors and led to necessary modifications in hospital medication orders, suggesting they could be a beneficial alternative to comprehensive medication reconciliation in certain cases.
New anti-cancer therapeutics have been developed in the recent years and dramatically change prognosis and patient management. Either used alone or in combination, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), such as anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD1/PD-(L)1, act by removing T-cell inhibition to enhance their antitumor response. This change in therapeutic targets leads to a break in immune-tolerance and a unique toxicity profile resulting in immune complications.

Objective: To assess the value of the lateral dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) spine scans for the diagnosis of disc degeneration.
Method: Seventy-seven individuals aged 18 and over, with or without disc degeneration, had both lateral thoracolumbar spine radiographs and DXA spine scans (≤6months between both exams).
Objective: To analyse the risk of incident vertebral and non-vertebral fracture in men with DISH.
Methods: In 782 men ages 50-85 years, DISH was diagnosed using Resnick's criteria. In men followed prospectively for 7.
