The duration discrimination respiratory task: A new test to measure respiratory interoceptive accuracy.

Interoception, which refers to the perception of body's internal state, is implicated in emotional processes and psychopathological disorders. Over the last decades, different tools have been developed to measure interoceptive accuracy, or the ability to accurately perceive physiological signals. Most of these tools have focused on cardiac interoception, but respiratory interoception has been less investigated due to the more complex and less portable equipment required.

[Maternal mortality due to venous thromboembolism in France 2016-2018].

Pregnancy and the post-partum period represent a thromboembolic risk situation, with pulmonary embolism (PE) remaining one of the leading causes of direct maternal deaths in developed countries. Between 2016 and 2018 in France, twenty maternal deaths were caused by venous thromboembolic complications (VTE), yielding a Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) of 0.9 per 100,000 live births (95%CI 0.

[Indirect causes of maternal deaths (except stroke, cardiovascular diseases and infections) in France 2016-2018].

Maternal deaths from indirect obstetric cause result from a preexisting condition or a condition that occurred during pregnancy without obstetric causes but was aggravated by the physiological effects of pregnancy. Twenty-nine deaths with an indirect cause related to a preexisting condition, excluding circulatory diseases or infections, were analysed by the expert committee. Pre-pregnancy pathology was documented in 16 women (epilepsy, n=7; amyloid angiopathy, n=1; Dandy-Walker syndrome, n=1; autoimmune diseases, n=3; diffuse infiltrative pneumonitis, n=1; thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, n=1; ovarian cancer in fragile X, n=1; major sickle cell disease, n=1).

[Maternal mortality by stroke in France 2016-2018].

Between 2016 and 2018, twenty maternal deaths were associated with a stroke. The 20 deaths whose main cause was stroke represent 7.4% of all maternal deaths, i.

[Maternal deaths and management by emergency departments in France 2016-2018].

In France, 272 maternal deaths occurred during the period 2016-2018, of which 131 were initially treated by healthcare professionals not specialized in obstetric. Fifty-six files were excluded because they did not concern emergency services or because there was insufficient data to allow analysis. Seventy-five cases of maternal deaths initially treated by emergency services (in-hospital emergency department [ED] or emergency medical ambulance [SAMU]) were analyzed.

Understanding bovine embryo elongation: a transcriptomic study of trophoblastic vesicles.

During the process of elongation, the embryo increases in size within the uterus, while the extra-embryonic tissues (EETs) develop and differentiate in preparation for implantation. As it grows, the ovoid embryo transforms into a tubular form first and then a filamentous form. This process is directed by numerous genes and pathways, the expression of which may be altered in the case of developmental irregularities such as when the conceptus is shorter than expected or when the embryo develops after splitting.

Biological effects of Lippia alba essential oil against Anopheles gambiae and Aedes aegypti.

The management of mosquito resistance to chemical insecticides and the biting behaviour of some species are motivating the search for complementary and/or alternative control methods. The use of plants is increasingly considered as a sustainable biological solution for vector control. The aim of this study was to evaluate the biological effects of the essential oil (EO) of Lippia alba harvested in Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire) against Anopheles gambiae and Aedes aegypti mosquitoes.

Stress response and experiential avoidance among firefighters: Preliminary insights from network analyses.

Firefighters are at increased risk of developing posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) due to exposure to potentially traumatic events during their careers. However, little is known about the prevalence of PTSD among this population, particularly when taking moderating variables into account. Using Gaussian Graphical Models and Directed Acyclic Graphs, we conducted network analyses to examine the interactions between clusters of PTSD symptoms, perceived stress, hardiness, and experiential avoidance among 187 firefighters.

Physiological reactivity at rest and in response to social or emotional stimuli after a traumatic brain injury: A systematic review.

Unlabelled: Numerous studies have shown that alterations in physiological reactivity (PR) after traumatic brain injury (TBI) are possibly associated with emotional deficits. We conducted a systematic review of these studies that evaluated PR in adults with moderate-to-severe TBI, either at rest or in response to emotional, stressful, or social stimuli. We focused on the most common measures of physiological response, including heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV), respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA), electrodermal activity (EDA), salivary cortisol, facial electromyography (EMG), and blink reflex.

Repellent activity against Anopheles gambiae of the leaves of nesting trees in the Sebitoli chimpanzee community of Kibale National Park, Uganda.

Background: Every evening, chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) build a sleeping platform so called "nest" by intertwining branches of tree. Most of chimpanzees' communities studied have a preference for tree species in which they nest. As female mosquitoes are feeding on the blood of their host at nighttime, chimpanzees may prevent being disturbed and bitten by mosquitoes by selecting tree species having properties to repel them.

Prevalence and determinants of return to work after various coronary events: meta-analysis of prospective studies.

Return to work (RTW) after a coronary event remains a major concern. This systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective studies published between January 1988 and August 2020, aim to evaluate the prevalence of RTW after a coronary event (myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome, angina pectoris) and to assess the determinants of RTW (such as follow-up duration, date of recruitment, country, gender, occupational factors, etc.).

Comparative analysis of the caecal tonsil transcriptome in two chicken lines experimentally infected with Salmonella Enteritidis.

Managing Salmonella enterica Enteritidis (SE) carriage in chicken is necessary to ensure human food safety and enhance the economic, social and environmental sustainability of chicken breeding. Salmonella can contaminate poultry products, causing human foodborne disease and economic losses for farmers. Both genetic selection for a decreased carriage and gut microbiota modulation strategies could reduce Salmonella propagation in farms.

Guidelines for the management of urgent obstetric situations in emergency medicine, 2022.

Objective: To provide recommendations on the management of urgent obstetrical emergencies outside the maternity ward.

Design: A group of 24 experts from the French Society of Emergency Medicine (SFMU), the French Society of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine (SFAR) and the French College of Gynaecologists and Obstetricians (CNGOF) was convened. Potential conflicts of interest were formally declared at the outset of the guideline development process, which was conducted independently of industry funding.

Back to the Future: A Report From the 16th International Forum for Back and Neck Pain Research in Primary Care and Updated Research Agenda.

Study Design: The 16th meeting of the International Forum for Back and Neck Pain Research in Primary Care was held in Québec City in July 2019 under the theme of innovation. This paper addresses the state of research in the field.

Objective: To ascertain the evolution of knowledge and clinical application in back and neck pain and identify shifting research priorities.

Cognitive flexibility and attentional patterns among trauma survivors: preliminary evidence from an eye-tracking study.

Background: Executive functioning has been linked to both the development of post-traumatic symptoms and the efficiency of therapy. Specifically, flexibility processes seem to play a major role in the use of efficient coping strategies after a traumatic event. However, only a few studies have focused on the links between flexibility, resilience, and concrete behaviours displayed by individuals.

Impact of COVID-19 infection in pregnancy and neonates: A case control study.

Objective: To evaluate maternal and neonatal outcomes of pregnant women who were infected by COVID-19 during pregnancy.

Study Design: A Case control retrospective study was conducted in an Obstetrical Department of a west Parisian area during the first year of COVID-19 pandemic. Maternal and neonatal outcomes were compared between a group of women infected by the SARS-CoV-2 virus during pregnancy (March 2020- February 2021) and a control group of women delivering before pandemic.

French Adaptation of the Brief Irritability Test: Factor Structure, Psychometric Properties, and Relationship with Depressive Symptoms.

The Brief Irritability Test (BITe, Holtzman et al., 2014) is a brief, reliable, and valid self-report measure of irritability. Despite the growing interest to understand the underlying causes and consequences of irritability, this questionnaire has not been developed and validated for a French-speaking population yet.

Neural responses associated with attentional engagement and disengagement from threat in high socially anxious children: Evidence from temporal-spatial PCA.

Background: Cognitive models indicated that social anxiety disorder (SAD) would be caused and maintained by a biased attentional processing of threatening information. This study investigates whether socially anxious children may present impaired attentional engagement and disengagement from negative emotional faces, as well as their underlying event-related potential responses.

Methods And Findings: Fifteen children with high levels of social anxiety (HSA; 9 boys; mean age = 9.
