Energy and protein intake in critically ill people with respiratory failure treated by high-flow nasal-cannula oxygenation: An observational study.

Objectives: High-flow nasal-cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy is increasingly used in the management of respiratory distress. Since this treatment may be required for many days and may impair nutritional intake, this study planned to observe the energy and protein intake of individuals receiving this therapy.

Methods: Forty consecutive patients requiring HFNC oxygenation after extubation or to prevent intubation from November 2017 to June 2018 were included in the study.

[Sporadic kidney cancer of young subjects: Study of the clinical and pathological features of a bicentric cohort].

Objective: To evaluate the incidence and clinical and pathological characteristics of sporadic renal tumors in young subjects and their risk factors.

Material And Methods: A retrospective study aimed at collecting clinical, epidemiological and anatomopathological information from the 118 patients aged 18 to 40 treated for a sporadic kidney tumor in two Parisian university hospital centers between 2003 and 2013.
