Background: Our study aimed to provide real-world evidence on the treatment patterns, effectiveness and safety of canakinumab in France in Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF), Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency (MKD), and Tumor necrosis factor Receptor Associated Periodic Syndrome (TRAPS).
Methods: This study used the JIR cohort, a multicentre international registry created in 2013 to collect data on patients with juvenile inflammatory rheumatic diseases. French patients diagnosed with FMF, MKD or TRAPS and treated with canakinumab were included in this study.
Background: Riociguat is the first approved treatment for inoperable and persistent/recurrent post-surgery chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). The RetrospectIve Adempas® stuDy (RiAD) aimed to describe the real-world utilization of riociguat in France.
Methods: In this retrospective multicentric study in patients initiating riociguat, dosing regimen, co-treatments and clinical characteristics were collected over a 2-year follow-up period.
Objectives: To estimate the effect of student status on mental health condition during COVID-19 general lockdown in France.
Design: Cross-sectional analysis comparing students and non-students recruited in the same study.
Setting: Participants of the web-based CONFINS study implemented during the general lockdown in France in spring 2020.
Introduction: Regular physical activity (PA) is recommended by all type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) management guidelines. The OPADIA study aimed to determine whether using a specific patient questionnaire (Optima-PA©) could help T2DM patients increase their PA by leading to better physician-patient communication and improved levels of shared decision making concerning Specific, Measurable, Acceptable, Realistic, Timely (SMART)-PA micro-objectives.
Methods: Physicians participating in this multicentre, prospective, randomised, real-life study were allocated to a standard group (T2DM patients managed according to usual clinical practice, n = 24) or the OPTIMA-PA group (additional use of the questionnaire, n = 30).
Purpose: Performing an antibiotic prophylaxis (ATBP) with a surgical abortion (SA) is recommended in numerous countries, including France where the CNGOF has issued guidelines. There is little data regarding the actual application of these guidelines in clinical practice. The aim of this study was to evaluate the practice of ATBP with SA and to assess the degree of compliance with the national guidelines.
