Article Synopsis
- The European Union includes 30 outermost and overseas countries and territories (OCTs), where renal transplantation is growing, but many patients still seek treatment in continental Europe, necessitating collaborative care.
- Each OCT has its own infectious disease patterns, which are crucial for ensuring effective post-transplant care for kidney transplant recipients (KTRs).
- The paper suggests a practical approach to enhance pre-transplant evaluations and provides region-specific epidemiological data, advocating for more collaborative research among the OCTs to improve care for infected KTRs.
Introduction: Ciguatera is a food poisoning caused by marine organisms and has a polymoprhic clinic. Differential diagnoses need to be eliminated.
Observation: A patient was hospitalized for a febrile syndrome a few days after the appearance of clinical signs suggestive of ciguatera after consuming lagoon fish.
Background: Gout is the most common cause of inflammatory arthritis worldwide, particularly in Pacific regions. We aimed to establish the prevalence of gout and hyperuricaemia in French Polynesia, their associations with dietary habits, their comorbidities, the prevalence of the HLA-B*58:01 allele, and current management of the disease.
Methods: The Ma'i u'u survey was epidemiological, prospective, cross-sectional, and gout-focused and included a random sample of adults from the general adult population of French Polynesia.
