AI Article Synopsis

  • The Centre de référence sur les agents tératogènes (CRAT) was established in 1975 as a key organization addressing drug-related risks during pregnancy and has initiated various significant projects in this area.
  • The CRAT has developed resources such as a counseling service for healthcare providers, a comprehensive database of over 50,000 pregnancies exposed to drugs, and a user-friendly website for public access.
  • Additionally, the organization collaborates with multidisciplinary experts and contributes to European networks to enhance the management and monitoring of drug exposure in pregnancy, fertility, and paternal health.

Article Abstract

Le Centre de référence sur les agents tératogènes (CRAT), founded in 1975, is the first national and international public organization especially involved in the problem of drugs during pregnancy, and during this period of time has been responsible for many initiatives in this field: health care providers information and counsel service, innovating risk assessment methodology, new method for clinical data collection leading to a database including more than 50 000 exposed pregnancies, innovative free access internet website (http://www.lecrat.org), multidisciplinary expert group in French medicines agencies (Afssaps/ANSM) and foundation of a European network "European network teratology information service" (ENTIS). All these innovations represent consequent advances and contribute to a better management of exposed pregnant women and their newborns, as well as the survey and signal detection during pregnancy. The CRAT is also involved in the field of drugs on fertility and on paternal exposures.

The fate of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) is the largest cause of uncertainty in long-term sea-level projections. In the last interglacial (LIG) around 125,000 years ago, data suggest that sea level was several metres higher than today, and required a significant contribution from Antarctic ice loss, with WAIS usually implicated. Antarctica and the Southern Ocean were warmer than today, by amounts comparable to those expected by 2100 under moderate to high future warming scenarios.

Autoimmune liver diseases (AILD) involve dysregulated CD4 T cell responses against liver self-antigens, but how these autoreactive T cells relate to liver tissue pathology remains unclear. Here we perform single-cell transcriptomic and T cell receptor analyses of circulating, self-antigen-specific CD4 T cells from patients with AILD and identify a subset of liver-autoreactive CD4 T cells with a distinct B-helper transcriptional profile characterized by PD-1, TIGIT and HLA-DR expression. These cells share clonal relationships with expanded intrahepatic T cells and exhibit transcriptional signatures overlapping with tissue-resident T cells in chronically inflamed environments.

Factors Associated With Short- and Long-Term Survival in Metastatic HER2-Positive Breast Cancer.

Clin Breast Cancer

January 2025

Department of Medical Oncology, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA; Breast Oncology Program, Dana-Farber Brigham Cancer Center, Boston, MA; Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.

Background: We sought to evaluate prognostic factors in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and their relationship with short- and long-term overall survival (OS).

Methods: Using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database, we evaluated patients with de novo HER2-positive MBC diagnosed from 2010 to 2018. Univariate analyses were performed to determine effect of each variable on OS.

Introduction: Faced with a backdrop of an increasing chronic disease burden from an ageing global population compounded with rising healthcare costs, health systems are required to implement cost-effective, safe and equitable care through efficient service delivery models. One approach to achieving this is through Starfield's 4Cs of primary healthcare (PHC), which delineates the key attributes of a high-performing PHC system that upholds the pillars of care coordination, first contact of care, continuity of care and comprehensive care. Therefore, this study aims to explore and elucidate the key themes and subthemes related to and extending beyond Starfield's 4Cs of PHC by integrating findings from a comprehensive literature review and a qualitative study.
