There is no recovery without a transformation. This is conveyed by a greater ability to adapt to the demands of daily life and a significant reduction in the behavioural expression of symptoms. This is combined with a positive experience of oneself in the present and a firm belief in the continuity of oneself in the future, over the medium term. Therapeutic apartments are an example of schemes favouring the patient's recovery. This article presents the example of the Foyer Damidot, near Lyon.

Implications of Biomaterials for Chronic Wounds.

Mini Rev Med Chem

January 2025

University of Bucharest, Faculty of Biology, DAFAB Department, Splaiul Independentei 91-95, Bucharest, R-050095, Romania.

The use of biomaterials in treating and managing chronic wounds represents a significant challenge in global healthcare due to the complex nature of these wounds, which are slow to heal and can lead to complications such as frequent infections and diminished quality of life for patients. Chronic wounds, which can arise from conditions like diabetes, poor circulation, and pressure sores, pose distinct challenges in wound care, necessitating the development of specialized dressings. The pathophysiology of chronic wounds is thoroughly examined in this article, with particular attention paid to the cellular and molecular defects at work and the therapeutic guidelines.

Background: Older adults belonging to racial or ethnic minorities with low socioeconomic status are at an elevated risk of developing dementia, but resources for assessing functional decline and detecting cognitive impairment are limited. Cognitive impairment affects the ability to perform daily activities and mobility behaviors. Traditional assessment methods have drawbacks, so smart home technologies (SmHT) have emerged to offer objective, high-frequency, and remote monitoring.

Biologics in Hypereosinophilic Syndrome and Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis.

Immunol Allergy Clin North Am

November 2024

Human Eosinophil Section, Laboratory of Parasitic Diseases, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Building 4, Room B1-28, 4 Memorial Drive, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA. Electronic address:

Article Synopsis
  • Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) are disorders characterized by high levels of eosinophils in the blood and tissues, leading to varied symptoms.
  • Traditionally, treatment has relied on systemic glucocorticoids; however, new biologic therapies targeting eosinophils offer alternatives that could lead to better results with fewer side effects.
  • The article reviews the evidence for using these biologics in treating HES and EGPA and outlines how they can be effectively employed in patient care.

Article Synopsis
  • Eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases (EGIDs) are disorders marked by an excess of eosinophils in the GI tract, causing symptoms like abdominal pain and difficulty swallowing.
  • Effective treatments are being developed, focusing on monoclonal antibodies that target inflammatory responses related to eosinophils.
  • Dupilumab is the only FDA-approved monoclonal antibody for treating eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), and the article will explore various biologics used for managing EGIDs.
