Body composition is associated with changes in health-related quality of life in patients with knee and/or hip osteoarthritis.

Objective: The objective of this study was to analyse the association between body composition and changes in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients followed for hip and knee osteoarthritis (OA).

Methods: Longitudinal data from the Knee and Hip OsteoArthritis Long-term Assessments (KHOALA) cohort, a multicentre cohort of 878 patients with symptomatic knee and/or hip OA, were used. The main outcome criteria were changes in patient-reported outcomes measures, the Study Short Form-36 (physical functioning, pain, mental health and vitality) and the OsteoArthritis Knee and Hip Quality Of Life (OAKHQOL)(physical activity, pain and mental health).

Immune checkpoint inhibitor rechallenge after immune-related adverse events: a retrospective study from VigiBase update in 2024 looking for emergent safety signals.

Objectives: Limited information is available on the safety of a rechallenge with an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) after occurrence of an immune-related adverse event (irAE). We aim to identify potential emergent safety signals.

Design: This is an update of our observational pharmacovigilance cohort study.

Risk factors for kidney cancer and socio-occupational category: significant impact of chlorinated solvents (UroCCR 111).

Introduction: The rising incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a significant concern in cancer research. This study analyses the characteristics of RCC patients based on their socio-professional category and explores the role of chlorinated solvents as a risk factor.

Materials And Methods: A multicentre, descriptive epidemiological study was conducted using the UroCCR database.

Respiratory Effects of Maximal Lung Recruitment Maneuvers Using Single-Breath Estimation in ARDS.

Background: Determining which patients with ARDS are most likely to benefit from lung recruitment maneuvers is challenging for physicians. The aim of this study was to assess whether the single-breath simplified decremental PEEP maneuver, which evaluates potential lung recruitment, may predict a subject's response to lung recruitment maneuvers, followed by PEEP titration.

Methods: We conducted a pilot prospective single-center cohort study with a 3-step protocol that defined sequential measurements.

Hawkins award 2023: clinical outcome and tendon healing after arthroscopic repair of isolated supraspinatus tears: a retrospective comparative study in patients older than 70 years vs. patients younger than 50 years.

Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the clinical and structural outcomes after arthroscopic repair of isolated supraspinatus tears in patients older than 70 years vs. patients younger than 50 years to determine whether age influences the treatment of these tears.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective, comparative study of 87 shoulders of 86 patients older than 70 years who underwent rotator cuff repair after isolated full-thickness supraspinatus tear between January 2010 and December 2020.

Challenges and opportunities in the management of type 2 diabetes in patients with lower extremity peripheral artery disease: a tailored diagnosis and treatment review.

Lower extremity peripheral artery disease (PAD) often results from atherosclerosis, and is highly prevalent in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Individuals with T2DM exhibit a more severe manifestation and a more distal distribution of PAD compared to those without diabetes, adding complexity to the therapeutic management of PAD in this particular patient population. Indeed, the management of PAD in patients with T2DM requires a multidisciplinary and individualized approach that addresses both the systemic effects of diabetes and the specific vascular complications of PAD.

Comparative analysis of surgical techniques in the management of chronic subdural hematomas and risk factors for poor outcomes.

Chronic subdural hematomas (CSDH) are increasingly prevalent, especially among the elderly. Surgical intervention is essential in most cases. However, the choice of surgical technique, either craniotomy or burr-hole opening, remains a subject of debate.

Enhancing Agency in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Therapies Through Sensorimotor Technologies.

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a significant public health concern, with only a third of patients recovering within a year of treatment. While PTSD often disrupts the sense of body ownership and sense of agency (SA), attention to the SA in trauma has been lacking. This perspective paper explores the loss of the SA in PTSD and its relevance in the development of symptoms.

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of antibody-drug conjugates for the treatment of patients with breast cancer.

Introduction: Currently three antibody-drug-conjugates (ADC) are approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for treatment of breast cancer (BC) patient: trastuzumab-emtansine, trastuzumab-deruxtecan and sacituzumab-govitecan. ADC are composed of a monoclonal antibody (mAb) targeting a specific antigen, a cytotoxic payload and a linker. Pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) distinguish ADC from conventional chemotherapy and must be understood by clinicians.

Change in stroke volume during alveolar recruitment maneuvers through transient continuous positive airway pressure or stepwise increase in positive end expiratory pressure in anesthetized patients: a prospective randomized double-blind study.

Purpose: Intraoperative alveolar recruitment maneuvers (ARM) used during protective ventilation strategy may have severe adverse hemodynamic effects, reported mainly during abrupt continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Stepwise increase and decrease in positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) may be used. We compared the hemodynamic effects of these two maneuvers.

Are unknown co-medications, over-the-counter and off-label drug use still problems among people living with HIV? Results from a transversal survey in 23 centres in France.

Introduction: Polypharmacy can lead to drug-drug interactions (DDIs), especially with ART. The burden of co-medications, including over-the-counter (OTC) drugs and self-medications, could be underestimated. We aimed to investigate the proportion of people living with HIV (PLHIV) with declared and undeclared co-medications, as well as their potential burden.

Evaluation of quality of care in neonatal anesthesia using a bundle of intraoperative parameters.

Background: Maintenance of physiological homeostasis is key in the safe conduct of pediatric anesthesia. Achieving this goal is especially difficult in neonatal surgery.

Aims: The first aim was to document the absolute number of seven intraoperative parameters monitored during anesthesia in neonates undergoing gastroschisis surgery.

Comparison of Injuries Associated With Electric Scooters, Motorbikes, and Bicycles in France, 2019-2022.

Importance: Electric scooter (e-scooter) use is increasing in France and in many urban environments worldwide. Yet little is known about injuries associated with use of e-scooters.

Objective: To describe characteristics and outcomes of major trauma involving e-scooters.
