GPs' practices when prescribing buprenorphine in primary care: A survey among the Sentinelles network.

Introduction: France is a leading country for opioid agonist treatment providing, with a predominance of buprenorphine. General practitioners (GPs) are the main prescribers of buprenorphine, but they seem to be less involved over the last 10 years. This work is the second part of a larger study analysing buprenorphine prescribing among French GPs working in primary care, and aims to describe GPs' practices when prescribing buprenorphine.

Barriers and facilitators to the involvement of general practitioners in the prescription of buprenorphine.

Introduction: France has one of the highest opioid agonist treatment (OAT) coverage rates in the world. French general practitioners (GPs) are providing the majority of prescriptions. However, a fall in the number of GPs initiating buprenorphine has been observed over the last decade.

Study protocol of the CREDO randomised controlled trial: evaluation of a structured return home consultation for patients suffering from metastaticcancer.

Introduction: Patients suffering from cancer are often managed by multiple health professionals. General practitioners with specific skills in oncology could facilitate care coordination between hospital and general practice in the management of these patients. To explore this hypothesis, we run a randomised clinical trial, called 'Concertation de REtour à DOmicile, CREDO'.

Experimental system of care coordination for the home return of patients with metastatic cancer: a survey of general practitioners.

Background: To promote improved coordination between general practice and hospital, the French clinical trial CREDO ("Concertation de REtour à DOmicile") is testing an innovative experimental consultation for patients with metastatic cancer who are returning home. This consultation involves the patient, the patient's referring GP (GP) and a GP with specific skills in oncology (GP) in a specialized care center. The objective of our study is to explore the satisfaction of GPs about this consultation, in the phase of interaction between GP and GP.

Prescribing buprenorphine for opioid use disorder in primary care: A survey of French general practitioners in the Sentinelles network.

Introduction: Although opioid substitution coverage in France is high and patient care with buprenorphine is mainly managed by general practitioners (GPs), buprenorphine sales have been decreasing since 2011, suggesting that French GPs are prescribing less buprenorphine. Yet this possible change in GP practices has not yet been investigated. This study aimed to examine primary care GPs' opinions about buprenorphine and habits related to prescribing buprenorphine.

Women's health in migrant populations: a qualitative study in France.

Background: In 2019, there are 6.5 million migrants living in France. Numerous quantitative studies show inequalities in access and quality of care, in particular in women's health.

Interaction between patient and general practitioner according to the patient body weight: a cross-sectional survey.

Objective: To analyse whether patient-general practitioner (GP) interaction, measured by their disagreement, varies among overweight or obese patients compared with normal-weight patients.

Methods: Twenty-seven GPs and 585 patients participated in the quantitative phase of the multidisciplinary INTERMEDE project and answered "mirrored" questionnaires collecting both GPs and patients' perceptions on information and advice given at the end of the consultation. Multilevel logistic regressions were performed to explore associations between patient body mass index (BMI) and patient-GP disagreement on information and advice given during the consultation.

Adapting patients' oncological treatment through remote participation of general practitioners in multi-disciplinary consultation meetings: A feasibility study.

Background: The general practitioner (GP) is central to managing patients with cancer, whose numbers are increasing worldwide. The GP's involvement requires better coordination between involved partners, in particular oncologists and GPs.

Objectives: To conduct a feasibility study of remote participation of GPs in multi-disciplinary consultation meetings (MCMs).

Perceived risk of opioid use disorder secondary to opioid analgesic medication use by the general population in France.

Background: In Europe and France, the use of opioid analgesic drugs has become widespread as an option for pain management. However, their use can lead to nonmedical use and/or opioid use disorder (OUD). This work aimed to assess the perceived risk of OUD secondary to opioid analgesic drugs use by the general population.

Impact of a health literacy intervention combining general practitioner training and a consumer facing intervention to improve colorectal cancer screening in underserved areas: protocol for a multicentric cluster randomized controlled trial.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer burden worldwide. In France, it is the second most common cause of cancer death after lung cancer. Systematic uptake of CRC screening can improve survival rates.

Inventory of tools for care coordination between general practice and hospital system for patients suffering from cancer in active phase of treatment: A scoping review.

Introduction: During the active phase of treatment, major difficulties appear in the transmission and quality of the information communicated to the General Practitioner (GP). Our objective was to carry out an inventory of the coordination tools used to improve exchanges between the hospital and the GP in the management of the patient suffering from cancer during this phase.

Material And Method: A scoping review was conducted using MEDLINE databases via PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science.

Improving communication between the general practitioner and the oncologist: a key role in coordinating care for patients suffering from cancer.

Background: Patients suffering from cancers are increasingly numerous in general practice consultations. The General Practitioner (GP) should be at the heart of the management of patients. Several studies have examined the perceptions of GPs confronted with the patient suffering from cancer and the relationships of GPs with oncologists, but few studies have focused on the patients' perspective.

Evolution of Reactions to Uncertainty Among Residents During a Clinical Rotation.

Background And Objectives: For residents, uncertainty can be a source of motivation, interest, and stimulation, but it can also cause fear and anxiety that can lead to burn-out. Considering the prevalence of uncertainty in family medicine and the potential reactions from residents, reactions to uncertainty constitute an important research topic. This study sought to measure the evolution of reactions to uncertainty of family medicine residents in their first and second year, during a 6-month clinical rotation in a family physician's office.

Discussing alcohol use with the GP: a qualitative study.

Background: Despite most GPs recognising their role in the early diagnosis of alcohol use disorder (AUD), only 23% of GPs routinely screen for alcohol use. One reason GPs report for not screening is their relationship with patients; questions regarding alcohol use are considered a disturbance of a relationship built on mutual trust.

Aim: To analyse the feelings and experiences of patients with AUD concerning early screening for alcohol use by GPs.

Vitamin D status among patients with drug-resistant and non-drug-resistant epilepsy.

: Epilepsy affects nearly 70 million people worldwide. Vitamin D deficiency may influence the balance of certain epilepsies. The purpose of this study was to determine the vitamin D status and anthropometric measurements of people with epilepsy (PWE), according to their pharmacosensitivity.
