2q33 Deletions Underlying Syndromic and Non-syndromic CTLA4 Deficiency.

Purpose: CTLA4 deficiency is an inborn error of immunity (IEI) due to heterozygosity for germline loss-of-function variants of the CTLA4 gene located on chromosome 2q33.2. CTLA4 deficiency underlies pleiotropic immune and lymphoproliferation-mediated features with incomplete penetrance.

Treatment of moderate-to-severe psoriasis in adults: An expert consensus statement using a Delphi method to produce a decision-making algorithm.

Background: New highly effective drugs for moderate-to-severe cutaneous psoriasis are regularly marketed, and the hierarchy of treatments thus requires frequent review.

Objectives: A Delphi method was used to enable a structured expert consensus on the use of systemic treatments and phototherapy among adults with moderate-to-severe psoriasis.

Methods: The Delphi method consists in achieving a convergence of opinions among a panel of experts using several rounds of questionnaires with controlled feedback between rounds.

NUTRISEP: Assessment of the nutritional status of patients with multiple sclerosis and link to fatigue.

Background: Fatigue is a common complaint in patients with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) and reduces quality of life. Several hypotheses for the pathogenesis of fatigue in MS are proposed ranging from neurological lesions to malnutrition, but none has been conclusively validated through clinical research.

Objectives: The goal of this study was to examine the correlation between fatigue and nutritional status and dietary habits in PwMS.

Longitudinal impact of the COVID19 pandemic on mental health in a general population sample in France: Evidence from the COMET Study.

Background: To study the longitudinal impact of co-occurring mental health problems, and to identify vulnerable groups in need of mental health support during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods: Analyses were based on data from 681 French participants in the international COVID-19 Mental Health Study, collected at four times (05/2020-04/2021). Symptoms of depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire 9, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 and the PTSD Check List for DSM-5.

Consideration of coping strategies for patients suffering from systemic lupus erythematosus: reflection for a personalised practice of patient education.

Objectives: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune multi-organ disease with an unpredictable course. SLE causes functional disability, changes in body appearance, and psychological distress. When faced with SLE, patients have to implement coping strategies.

Controlled Education of patients after Stroke (CEOPS)- nurse-led multimodal and long-term interventional program involving a patient's caregiver to optimize secondary prevention of stroke: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

Background: Setting up a follow-up secondary prevention program after stroke is difficult due to motor and cognitive impairment, but necessary to prevent recurrence and improve patients' quality of life. To involve a referent nurse and a caregiver from the patient's social circle in nurse-led multimodal and long-term management of risk factors after stroke could be an advantage due to their easier access to the patient and family. The aim of this study is to compare the benefit of optimized follow up by nursing personnel from the vascular neurology department including therapeutic follow up, and an interventional program directed to the patient and a caregiving member of their social circle, as compared with typical follow up in order to develop a specific follow-up program of secondary prevention of stroke.

Epidemiology of malpractice lawsuits in paediatrics.

Unlabelled: A systematic review of malpractice lawsuits involving children identified six articles and 227 cumulative paediatric published cases. The prevalence of medical lawsuits resulting in payment to plaintiff was found to be 50% less frequent than that in adults. The most frequent and severe errors were among infants, including diagnostic errors of meningitis, gastroenteritis and pneumonia.
