Objectives: To evaluate severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, hospitalization and fatality rates in residents of homeless shelters run by Samusocial of Paris.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective serological study between July and August 2020 on all residents and staff members of three homeless shelters run by Samusocial of Paris: two centres providing healthcare accommodation (HCA) and one a women's dormitory. We included all adults present in the shelters or who died of a proven SARS-CoV-2 infection during the first wave (March-May).
Objectives: To investigate how the modulation of the oxidative balance affects cytotoxic therapies in glioblastoma, in vitro.
Material And Methods: Human glioblastoma U251 and T98 cells and normal astrocytes C8D1A were loaded with coenzyme Q10 (CoQ). Mitochondrial superoxide ion (O) and HO were measured by fluorescence microscopy.
Purpose: CLAPO syndrome is a rare vascular disorder characterized by capillary malformation of the lower lip, lymphatic malformation predominant on the face and neck, asymmetry, and partial/generalized overgrowth. Here we tested the hypothesis that, although the genetic cause is not known, the tissue distribution of the clinical manifestations in CLAPO seems to follow a pattern of somatic mosaicism.
Methods: We clinically evaluated a cohort of 13 patients with CLAPO and screened 20 DNA blood/tissue samples from 9 patients using high-throughput, deep sequencing.
Unlabelled: Profound hearing loss is a disability that affects personality and when it involves teenagers before language acquisition, these bio-psychosocial conflicts can be exacerbated, requiring careful evaluation and choice of them for cochlear implant.
Aim: To evaluate speech perception by adolescents with profound hearing loss, users of cochlear implants.
Study Design: Prospective.
Unlabelled: Electrically Evoked Compound Action Potential is a measure of synchronous cochlear nerve fibers activity elicited by electrical stimulation of the cochlear implant. The electrophysiological nerve responses may contribute to explain the variability in individual performance of cochlear implant recipients.
Aim: To compare speech perception tests performances of cochlear implant users according to the presence or absence of intraoperative neural telemetry responses.
Background: Functional evaluation of the facial movements in patients with facial paralysis following a stroke.
Aim: To evaluate the function of the facial muscles of patients after central facial paralysis following a stroke.
Method: Nine patients referred by the Neurology Service were evaluated.
Unlabelled: Cochlear implantation has been recommended for children under 24 months of age. The use of objective measures is needed to help speech processor programming. The electrically evoked compound potential (EAP), which can be assessed by neural response telemetry (NRT), is one of those objective measures.

Aim: To delineate the contributions of myofunctional exercises during the flaccid phase of the disorder, before any sequelae.
Method: 147 promptuaries of patients with facial paralysis were analyzed and divided in two groups according to the period in which rehabilitation began.
