Objective: The objective is to evaluate changes in survival to discharge of liveborn infants less than 32 weeks' gestational age (GA) in France, where the latest available data on very preterm survival at a national-level are from the EPIPAGE-2 cohort in 2011.
Design: Population-based cohort study.
Setting: Metropolitan France in 2011, 2015 and 2020.
Patients: All births between 22 and 31 weeks' GA using the EPIPAGE-2 cohort study for the year 2011 and hospital discharge data linked to death certificates from the for the years 2015 and 2020.
Main Outcome Measures: The primary outcome was survival to hospital discharge among liveborn infants. Survival rates were compared using modified Poisson regression and adjusted for population characteristics (maternal age, multiple birth, sex, small for GA). Data on all births were examined to assess changes to the live birth rate.
Results: Survival to discharge among live births increased at 23 and 24 weeks' GA from 1% and 31% in 2011 to 8% and 37% in 2015 and to 31% and 47% in 2020, respectively. From 25 to 28 weeks' GA, survival rates tended to increase, but differences were not significant, and survival rates were stable from 29 to 31 weeks GA. Results were similar after adjustment. The proportion of live births versus stillbirths increased from 22 to 24 weeks' GA.
Conclusion: Survival rates among live births improved between 2011 and 2020 from 23 to 28 weeks' GA, with marked changes at 23 and 24 weeks' GA.

Objectives: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, particularly among the elderly, resulting in high rates of intensive care unit (ICU) admissions. Malnutrition is common in elderly patients and has been associated with poor prognosis in patients with COPD. However, its impact in the ICU setting remains incompletely defined.

Background: Lower mini-sternotomy offers the advantage of providing excellent visualization of the 4 cardiac cavities, allowing surgical treatment of aortic, mitral and tricuspid valves as well as any intra-cavitary procedure. Technical issues, as well as safety and echocardiographic results of this approach, are lacking. The aim of this retrospective study was to describe outcomes of lower mini-sternotomy to treat valvulopathies and other intracardiac surgeries.

This study investigated the effects of bamboo shoot extract (Bambusa vulgaris) as a feed additive on the health profiles and infection resistance of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) against Pseudomonas putida. Bamboo shoot extract was added at levels of 0 g, 40 g, and 60 g per 1000 g of diet over a 60-day period. The fish were then challenged with a pathogenic P.
