Camille Claudel was confined to a mental hospital in 1913, when she was 50. In fact she had been ill long before and it is that morbid personality which the author describes. Her life had always been a tragedy and her love for Rodin had nothing to do whatsoever with her illness; such a feeling was just a symptom of her diseases. She remained 30 years in hospital and she was considered as a paranoiac systematized chronic delirious patient. The author explains why such a case could not be judged differently in France in 1913. Whereas today it would be referred to as schizophrenic paranoid psychosis, with polymorphic delirious ideas and main persecution theme.

Article Synopsis
- Researchers examined the effects of combining prazosin (α1b blocker) and cyproheptadine (5HT2A blocker) on alcohol consumption in individuals with Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD).
- The study involved 154 participants in France, who were divided into three groups for a 3-month trial: low-dose, high-dose, and placebo.
- Results indicated a significant reduction in total alcohol consumption (TAC) for both the low and high-dose groups compared to the placebo, suggesting that this combination therapy is effective and safe for decreasing alcohol intake.

Aims: The estimated effect of sodium oxybate (SMO) in the treatment of alcohol dependence is heterogeneous. Population severity and treatment duration have been identified as potential effect modifiers. Population severity distinguishes heavy drinking patients with <14 days of abstinence before treatment initiation (high-severity population) from other patients (mild-severity population).

Unlabelled: Cocaine-induced transient hallucinations (CIH) are a frequent complication following cocaine intake that is associated with addiction severity.
Methods: Two hundred and forty-two non-psychotic and Caucasian lifetime cocaine users were included in a French multicentric study. Clinical variables and dopamine pathway genotype data were extracted and tested with CIH scores using a zero-inflated binomial model, which allows for the exploration of factors associated with occurrence and severity separately.
