The General Movement Assessment (GMA) is a validated evaluation of brain maturation essential to shaping early individual developmental trajectories of preterm infants. To ensure a reliable GMA, preterm infants should be recorded for 30 to 60 min before manually selecting at least three sequences with general movements. This time-consuming task of manually selecting short video sequences from lengthy recordings impedes its implementation within the Neonatal Unit.

Background: Astronauts in Earth's orbit experience microgravity, resulting in a decline of skeletal muscle mass and function. On Earth, models simulating microgravity have shown that the extent of the loss in muscle force is greater than the loss in muscle mass. The reasons behind this disproportionate loss of muscle force are still poorly understood.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the experiences of ICU healthcare professionals regarding controlled donation after circulatory death (cDCD), amid ethical concerns between end-of-life care and organ donation.
  • Conducted in 32 ICUs in France, the study surveyed 206 physicians and nurses after the deaths of patients considered potential cDCD donors, measuring their anxiety levels and feelings of tension related to the donation process.
  • Results show that cDCD does not significantly increase anxiety for healthcare professionals compared to regular end-of-life situations, with a general positive perception of cDCD among them, suggesting a need for better support in balancing life support decisions and organ donation.

Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL) comprises three subtypes: extranodal MZL (EMZL), splenic MZL (SMZL) and nodal MZL (NMZL). Since clinical trials have limited representativeness, there is a need for real-world data (RWD) evidence in MZL. Real-world data in Lymphoma and survival in Adults (REALYSA) is a prospective multicentric French cohort of newly diagnosed lymphoma patients.

Introduction: Literature suggests that patients from deprived backgrounds are less likely to adhere to their treatments, continue to expose themselves to risk factors and, as a result, have poorer health outcomes. It is therefore crucial to identify these vulnerable populations early on, in order to provide them with tailored and reinforced care. The primary aim of this research is to construct and validate a systematic screening tool for identifying patients at highest risk of social vulnerability due to deprivation, through the use of psychometric techniques.

Article Synopsis
  • Mucormycosis, a severe fungal infection highlighted by the WHO, was studied in France from 2012 to 2022, revealing significant trends in epidemiology and mortality factors.
  • Out of 550 cases, key underlying conditions included hematological malignancies (65.1%), with pulmonary infections most common (52.4%) and substantial seasonal variations suggesting more cases in autumn.
  • The study linked the rise in PCR diagnostic methods to improved patient outcomes, highlighting that age, ICU diagnosis, and hematological malignancies increased mortality, while diagnosis after 2015 and surgical interventions decreased it.
