Article Synopsis
- Substance misuse among healthcare residents in a French city is linked to environmental factors, especially working conditions and social support.
- An online survey revealed high rates of substance misuse, with over half showing alcohol misuse and notable differences in misuse based on residency specialty.
- Low social support at work increases the risk of illicit drug use, while working long hours did not have a significant association with substance misuse.
Introduction: The mental health of residents is a growing significant concern, particularly with respect to hospital and university training conditions. Our goal was to assess the professional, academic, and psychological determinants of the mental health status of all residents of the academy of Lyon, France.
Materials And Methods: The Health Barometer of Lyon Subdivision Residents (BASIL) is an initiative which consists in proposing a recurrent online survey to all residents in medicine, pharmacy, and dentistry, belonging to the Lyon subdivision.
Introduction: Peripheral venous catheter insertion is a procedural skill that every medical student should master. Training is often limited to a small number of students and is poorly evaluated. The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of peer-assisted learning in comparison to instructor-led teaching for peripheral venous catheter insertion training.

Study Design: Flow cytometry (FCM), confocal laser scanning microscopy and subsequent factor analysis image processing were used to characterize the uptake of nanoparticles and to define their cytotoxicity, evaluated by enhanced permeability to SYTOX Green, release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and morphologic nuclear changes determined with Hoechst 33342. Proinflammatory effects were estimated by enzyme linked immunoassay to quantify IL-8 and MCP-1 secretion.
