The authors compare the data from the psychological assessment of a cohort of 191 French speaking hypothyroid children detected by neonatal screening: 99 were followed in Quebec and 92 in Lille, according to two independent programs. Three age levels were selected: 12-18 months, 5 and 7 years. Data were similar and, in both studies, results of the later ages were slightly lower than the norms of the tests or results obtained in control groups. In both populations correlations were found between some results and two factors related to hypothyroidism: delayed bone surface development and thyroxinemia at the time of diagnosis. On the other hand, etiology and time of treatment had no repercussions on any group results.

Practical implementation of automated insulin delivery systems in 2025: A French position statement update.

The advent of automated insulin delivery (AID) systems in 2020 marked a disruptive event in managing type 1 diabetes, benefiting children and adults alike. By 2024, advances in real-world data and research motivated an update to the French consensus on AID systems to expand accessibility, refine guidelines, and optimize patient follow-up. AID systems have consistently improved glycemic control by reducing HbA1c, increasing time-in-range (TIR), and minimizing hypoglycemia, with significant benefits even for specific populations such as individuals with poor glycemic control, brittle diabetes, children, very young children, pregnant women, those with insulin resistance or gastroparesis, or after bariatric surgery.

Background: Impaired body perception could contribute to the pain experience and be a possible treatment target. The Fremantle Back Awareness Questionnaire (FreBAQ) is the only self-report questionnaire to assess back-specific self-perception.
Aim: The aim of this study was to develop a French version of the FreBAQ (FreBAQ-FR) and to evaluate its psychometric properties.

Diabetes care in Canada is compromised by the lack of resources to adequately address the mental health challenges associated with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. To address this gap Breakthrough T1D (formerly JDRF) Canada and Diabetes Canada developed a bilingual training program, and associated directory listing successful graduates, to educate and empower existing mental health providers to better provide services to those living with diabetes. This paper reports on the development and initial outcomes of this virtual training program.

Hereditary angioedema (HAE) has been recognized for almost 150 years. The newest form of HAE, where C1 inhibitor levels are normal (HAE-nC1INH), was first described in 2000. Over the last two decades, new types of apparent non-mast cell-mediated angioedema with normal quantity and activity of C1INH have been described, in some cases with proven genetic pathogenic variants that co-segregate with angioedema expression within families.
