Glycemic control and bacterial infectious risk in type 2 diabetes: A retrospective cohort from a primary care database.

Objective: The prevalence of diabetes was estimated at 5.3% of the French population in 2020. People with type 2 diabetes have an increased risk of infection.

Determinants associated with the prescription of a first biologic therapy in patients with axial spondyloarthritis and concomitant fibromyalgia in daily practice.

Objectives: There is no consensus on the therapeutic strategy of rheumatologists for patients with spondyloarthritis (SpA) and concomitant fibromyalgia (FM). The main aim of this study was to identify, in a population of rheumatologists practicing in Normandy, France, the determinants associated with their decision to prescribe a first biologic DMARD (bDMARD) in patients with Spa/FM. Specific objectives were to evaluate professional prescribing practices to identify a set of criteria likely to contribute to the therapeutic decision of rheumatologists, and to validate the relevance of these criteria.

'Male cystitis does not exist': A qualitative study of general practitioners' experiences and management of male urinary tract infections in France.

Background: Male urinary tract infections (mUTIs) are rare in primary care. The definition of mUTIs varies across countries. The therapeutic management of mUTIs in France is based on a 14-day course of fluoroquinolones despite a high risk of antimicrobial resistance.

General practice-related MeSH terms in main journals: a bibliometric analysis from 2011 to 2021.

Background: There are various Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms used to index general practice research, without consistency.

Aim: To understand how general practice-related research is indexed in the main general practice journals between 2011 and 2021, and to analyse the factors that influenced the choice of the general practice-related MeSH.

Design And Setting: This was a quantitative bibliometric study conducted on MEDLINE.

Positive and negative viral associations in patients with acute respiratory tract infections in primary care: the ECOVIR study.

Introduction: Acute respiratory infections (ARIs) are the most common viral infections encountered in primary care settings. The identification of causal viruses is still not available in routine practice. Although new strategies of prevention are being identified, knowledge of the relationships between respiratory viruses remains limited.
