Jean-Martin Charcot, member of thesis juries at the Paris medical school (1862-1893).

Jean-Martin Charcot is considered the founding father of modern neurology. There are many general and specialized biographies about him, the result being that a new text is unexpected or would likely amount to plagiarism. However, part of the duties for Charcot's medical professorship have not, to date, been studied at all.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the impact of P2Y12 inhibitors, specifically ticagrelor, on critically ill COVID-19 patients, as platelet activation may be a new treatment target.
- Conducted as a randomized clinical trial, it included 949 patients who were assigned to receive either the P2Y12 inhibitor or usual care for up to 14 days.
- Results showed a small increase in organ support-free days for those on the inhibitor, but the effect was uncertain due to overlapping confidence intervals, and the trial was terminated early due to slow enrollment.

Jean-Martin Charcot coined the term Duchenne-Aran atrophy. The inversion of names compared to standard practice shows the respect Charcot had for Guillaume Duchenne de Boulogne, who had encouraged him to study nervous disease. Using innovative localised electrification, Duchenne identified various types of muscular atrophy which he distinguished from paralysis.

Article Synopsis
- A clinical trial investigated whether therapeutic-dose anticoagulation could improve outcomes for critically ill patients with severe Covid-19 compared to standard thromboprophylaxis.
- The study found no significant difference in organ support-free days between the two groups, with the anticoagulation group showing a median of 1 day compared to 4 days for the usual-care group.
- The trial was halted due to a high probability of futility, with similar hospital discharge survival rates and a slightly higher occurrence of major bleeding in the anticoagulation group.
