Les maladies respiratoires particulièrement le COVID-19 constituent un problème majeur de santé publique dans le monde. Depuis mars 2020, le Sénégal a enregistré 299 cas de COVID-19 dont 183 guéris et seulement deux cas sévères. Aussi environ 20000 personnes en contact étroit avec les malades ont été testés négatifs. Ces résultats sur l´absence de cas sévère, le taux élevé de guérison et la négativité des tests chez les personnes en contact étroit avec les malades pourraient s´expliquer par un portage de coronavirus non viable ou à charge virale très faible (non détectable). En effet, certains facteurs tels que le climat, les prédispositions génétiques pourraient jouer un rôle très important sur la viabilité de SARS CoV-2. Les autres virus respiratoires tels qu´Influenza virus, VRS, rhinovirus, entérovirus, métapneumovirus, para influenza virus causant les mêmes symptômes que le SARS CoV-2, leur détection devrait être faite ensemble pour l´imputabilité de la maladie à un tel virus respiratoire. En conclusion, au Sénégal, le nombre de personnes supposées malades de COVID-19 est très faible et le taux de guérison très élevé. Ainsi, les efforts déployés contre le COVID-19 devraient être réorientés vers la prise en charge des autres pathologies prioritaires des sénégalais.

Surgical Unit, Centre Hospitalier Vétérinaire St Martin, Allonzier La Caille, France.
Objectives: To report the compartmental location of feline aural inflammatory polyps within the tympanic bulla.
Materials And Methods: Nine client-owned cats with clinical signs and middle ear filling consistent with feline aural inflammatory polyps were prospectively pre-selected and underwent unilateral or bilateral ventral bulla osteotomy. Preoperative and surgical findings, complications and outcomes were recorded.

Introduction: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) efficacy in medium vessel occlusion (MeVO) stroke, particularly in patients with low Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score (ASPECTS), remains less explored.
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed data from 443 AIS patients treated with MT for MeVO and low ASPECTS (4-7) at 37 centers across North America, Asia, and Europe, from September 2017 to July 2021. Patients were categorized into ASPECTS of 4-5 and 6-7.
Patient perceptions of osteoporosis management: a qualitative pilot study by a patient advisory group.

Unlabelled: The management of osteoporosis even after a fracture is declining. Our pilot study in patients with osteoporosis confirms a large ignorance of the disease and major fears and uncertainties about the treatments. Complete and sustained medical information seems essential to counteract the contradictory information, which are exclusively negative.

IKKα, encoded by CHUK, is crucial in the non-canonical NF-κB pathway and part of the IKK complex activating the canonical pathway alongside IKKβ. The absence of IKKα causes fetal encasement syndrome in humans, fatal in utero, while an impaired IKKα-NIK interaction was reported in a single patient and causes combined immunodeficiency. Here, we describe compound heterozygous variants in the kinase domain of IKKα in a female patient with hypogammaglobulinemia, recurrent lung infections, and Hay-Wells syndrome-like features.
