Translation and validation of the meat attachment questionnaire (MAQ) in a French general practice population.

Meat consumption has significant implications for both individual health and the environment. Understanding individuals' attachment to meat is crucial for designing effective interventions to reduce consumption. The MAQ is a tool developed to assess individuals' attachment to meat.

Neurologic Outcomes in People With Multiple Sclerosis Treated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors for Oncologic Indications.

Background And Objectives: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are increasingly used against various cancers but are associated with immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Risk of irAEs may be higher in patients with certain preexisting autoimmune diseases, and these patients may also experience exacerbation of the underlying autoimmune disease following ICI initiation. People with multiple sclerosis (MS) have mostly been excluded from clinical trials of ICIs, so data on the safety of ICIs in MS are limited.

No evidence of clinical efficacy of oxomemazine in cough, according to a systematic review.

Purpose: Cough is a prevalent symptom driving patients to seek medical attention in general practice. Despite its widespread use, the clinical efficacy of oxomemazine, the second most reimbursed molecule in France for symptomatic cough treatment, remains uncertain. This study aims to systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy of oxomemazine in cough.

[Balancing drug regulation and health democracy: The role of patient and healthcare professional advisors at the ANSM].

The French National Agency for Health Products (ANSM) is a regulatory and public health agency. Its regulatory, health policing and public health protection activities require a perfect fit with the field and the various people involved in the use of health products. Since 2019, the ANSM has adapted its organisation, procedures and processes to encourage and improve interaction with its stakeholders, as part of its policy of openness towards civil society.

Longitudinal study of immunity to SARS-CoV2 in ocrelizumab-treated MS patients up to 2 years after COVID-19 vaccination.

Objectives: (1) To plot the trajectory of humoral and cellular immune responses to the primary (two-dose) COVID-19 mRNA series and the third/booster dose in B-cell-depleted multiple sclerosis (MS) patients up to 2 years post-vaccination; (2) to identify predictors of immune responses to vaccination; and (3) to assess the impact of intercurrent COVID-19 infections on SARS CoV-2-specific immunity.

Methods: Sixty ocrelizumab-treated MS patients were enrolled from NYU (New York) and University of Colorado (Anschutz) MS Centers. Samples were collected pre-vaccination, and then 4, 12, 24, and 48 weeks post-primary series, and 4, 12, 24, and 48 weeks post-booster.
