[Data sharing policies of clinical trials funders in France].

Aims: The aims of this survey were to evaluate the percentage of French clinical trial funders with a data sharing policy, to describe their data sharing policies and, more generally, the transparency of the research they fund.

Methods: The different funders of clinical trials in France have been identified from 3 lists of tenders for clinical research projects: the internal list of the University Hospital Center (CHU) of Rennes, the list of the Interregional Group for Clinical Research and Innovation (GIRCI EST), the list of the portal for calls for projects in health research. Funders were contacted, first by email and then by phone (at least two email and/or phone reminders) to respond to an online survey via Google form.

Driving habits in glaucoma patients.

Purpose: Glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy leading to loss of visual function beginning with the peripheral visual field. One large population-based study found that individuals with visual impairment reported difficulties in performing most vision-dependent daily activities, including difficulty with driving. The objective of this retrospective cohort study was to investigate the driving habits of glaucoma patients and to determine the conformance of their visual acuity and visual fields with driving regulations.

[Specific problems linked to glaucoma in elderly patients].

Chronic glaucoma is one of the main causes of blindness in France. The incidence of the disease increases with age and forms an ever greater public health problem as the population ages. It is therefore important to be aware of the disabilities related to glaucoma in order to optimise the treatment of elderly patients suffering from the disease.

Ocular artery thrombosis as an initial presentation of a prothrombin G20210A mutation.

The G20210A mutation in the prothrombin gene is an established risk factor for venous thrombosis. There is controversy as to the role played by this mutation in arterial thrombotic disease. We present the case of a 56-year-old man who presented with a central retinal artery occlusion of the left eye.

[Comparison of optical coherence tomography and ultrasound biomicroscopy for detection of plateau iris].

Purpose: To compare optical coherence tomography (OCT) and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) for detection of plateau iris configuration and confirmation of plateau iris syndrome.

Participants: Three subjects with plateau iris configuration were recruited. All patients underwent gonioscopy, UBM, and OCT.
