Heterogeneity in the use of biologics for severe asthma in Europe: a SHARP ERS study.
ERJ Open Res
October 2022
Department of Respiratory Medicine, Liège University Hospital, Liège, Belgium.
Introduction: Treatment with biologics for severe asthma is informed by international and national guidelines and defined by national regulating bodies, but how these drugs are used in real-life is unknown.
Materials And Methods: The European Respiratory Society (ERS) SHARP Clinical Research Collaboration conducted a three-step survey collecting information on asthma biologics use in Europe. Five geographically distant countries defined the survey questions, focusing on seven end-points: biologics availability and financial issues, prescription and administration modalities, inclusion criteria, continuation criteria, switching biologics, combining biologics and evaluation of corticosteroid toxicity.
Women's adjustment trajectories during IVF and impact on mental health 11-17 years later.
Hum Reprod
August 2016
Department of Medical Psychology, Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Centre, Nijmegen, Netherlands.
Study Question: Do patients present different adjustment trajectories during and after IVF treatment?
Summary Answer: Most women show resilient trajectories during and after IVF treatment but 37% show temporary or chronic maladjustment during IVF and 10% are maladjusted 11-17 years after treatment.
What Is Known Already: Research on patient psychosocial adjustment during treatment has contributed to identifying the most distressful stages of IVF treatment and profiling patients at risk for emotional maladjustment at these specific stages. This knowledge is currently driving the deliverance of psychosocial care at fertility clinics by tailoring it to patients' risk profiles and specific treatment stages.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of a new multidisciplinary transmural rehabilitation programme for older stroke patients.
