Objectives: The Association Interdisciplinaire Post-Universitaire de Sexologie (AIUS) has brought together a panel of experts to draw up French recommendations for the management of premature ejaculation. This article presents the recommendations for the diagnosis and evaluation of premature ejaculation.

Methods: Systematic review of the literature between 01/1995 and 02/2022. Using the method of recommendations for clinical practice (RPC).

Results: We recommend using the SIAMS definition for everyday clinical practice. PE is defined as: (i) a persistent and recurrent subjective perception of loss of control (management) of the ejaculatory mechanism in the presence of appropriate erotic stimuli; (ii) subjective, PE-related distress induced in the patient and sexual dissatisfaction or PE-related anorgamy in the partner; (iii) a short intravaginal ejaculatory latency time, whether subjectively perceived by the patient and the partner or objectively measured as less than 180seconds (generally). We suggest that the same definition be applied to practices other than vaginal penetration, such as masturbation, oral or anal intercourse, as well as to non-heterosexual contexts. We suggest using information reported by the patient, possibly supplemented by assessment tests/questionnaires (IPE, PEP, PEDT). We recommend investigating the presence of other sexual dysfunctions, in particular erectile dysfunction (ED), as well as any sexual dysfunctions of partners. We recommend taking a medical and psychosexological history, and carrying out a targeted physical examination in patients complaining of PE.

Conclusion: These recommendations should help to improve the management of PE.

Background: Very premature infants screened for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) that do not develop ROP still experience serious visual developmental challenges, and while it is recommended that all children in the UK are offered preschool visual screening, we aimed to explore whether this vulnerable group requires dedicated follow-up.

Methods: We performed a real-world retrospective observational cohort study of children previously screened for ROP in NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (Scotland) between 2013 and 2015. We excluded those with any severity of ROP identified during screening.

Background: Midfoot pain is common but poorly understood, with radiographs often indicating no anomalies. This study aimed to describe bone, joint and soft tissue changes and to explore associations between MRI-detected abnormalities and clinical symptoms (pain and disability) in a group of adults with midfoot pain, but who were radiographically negative for osteoarthritis.

Methods: Community-based participants with midfoot pain underwent an MRI scan of one foot and scored semi-quantitatively using the Foot OsteoArthritis MRI Score (FOAMRIS).

Endometrial cancer is the most prevalent gynecologic cancer in the United States and has rising incidence and mortality. Endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia or atypical endometrial hyperplasia (EIN-AEH), a precancerous neoplasm, is surgically managed with hysterectomy in patients who have completed childbearing because of risk of progression to cancer. Concurrent endometrial carcinoma (EC) is also present on hysterectomy specimens in up to 50% of cases.
