To date, we have no French data about the psychiatric consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic and the confinement. In the largest French psychiatric emergency centre, we compared the average number of consultations per day during the confinement with the same period preceding the confinement and with the same periods of previous years, and we observed a significant drop in attendance. Our team had to adapt promptly to these changes in public mental health services, and we set up a telephone hotline dedicated to psychiatric patients and their families, in order to prevent a secondary psychiatric crisis.

Background And Purpose: Although not validated as a standard treatment, high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is increasingly used in the management of localised prostate cancer (PCa). In case of recurrence after HIFU, treatment is currently not standardised. Our aim was to evaluate normofractionated (NFRT) and hypofractionated (HFRT) salvage radiotherapy (RT) using volumetric modulated arc therapy (s-VMAT) with doses used in first-line management of localised PCa.

Background: Hemodialysis (HD) contributes significantly to healthcare's carbon footprint. Worldwide about 100,000 dialysis machines end their life cycle each year. Our aim was to analyze the composition and the potential for recyclability of two dialysis machines, from the two companies with the largest market share, which had met their end-of-use terms (10-12 years of use according to French regulations).

Background: Post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is the first cause of death after major hepatectomy, and future liver remnant (FLR) volume is the main factor predicting PHLF. Liver venous deprivation (LVD) via portal and hepatic vein embolization has been suggested to induce a better hypertrophy of the FLR than portal vein embolization. The aim of this retrospective multicentric study was to assess safety, feasibility and efficacity of LVD in a French national multicentric register.

Objective: To quantify changes in inequalities in uptake of childhood vaccination during a period of steadily declining overall childhood vaccination rates in England.
Design: Longitudinal study.
Setting: General practice data for five vaccines administered to children (first and second doses of the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine (MMR1 and MMR2, respectively), rotavirus vaccine, pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) booster, and six-in-one (DTaP/IPV/Hib/HepB) vaccine covering diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, type b, and hepatitis B) from the Cover of Vaccination Uptake Evaluated Rapidly dataset in England.
