Impact of post-COVID-19 olfactory disorders on quality of life, hedonic experiences and psychiatric dimensions in general population.

Background And Objective: Olfactory disorders in COVID-19 impact quality of life and may lead to psychological impairments. Prevalence ranges from 8 to 85%, persisting in about 30% of cases. This study aimed to evaluate the 6-month post-COVID-19 impact on quality of life, hedonic experiences, anxiety and depression due to olfactory disorders.

The first quick olfactory test specific for Alzheimer's disease and French culture.

Purpose: Olfactory identification disorder is considered a promising early biomarker of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The QUICK TODA2 can be used as a short olfactory screening tool specific for French AD patients. The selection of AD specific odorants and the design of this screening were the main objectives of this twofold study.

Cutoff scores for the "Interest game", an application for the assessment of diminished interest in neurocognitive disorders.

Diminished interest is a core feature of apathy that shows high prevalence in people with Mild and Major Neurocognitive disorders (NCD). In the clinical setting, apathy is mainly assessed using clinical scales and questionnaires, but new technologies are starting to be employed to complement classical instruments. Here, we explored the performance of the "Interest game," a ludic application that assesses personal interests, in discriminating between persons with and without diminished interest based on the Apathy Diagnostic Criteria.

A 3-year retrospective study of 866 children and adolescent outpatients followed in the Nice Pediatric Psychotrauma Center created after the 2016 mass terror attack.

Background: The mass terrorist attack in Nice, France, in July 2016 caused deaths and injuries in a local population, including children and adolescents. The Nice Pediatric Psychotrauma Center (NPPC) was opened to provide mental health care to the pediatric population (0-18 years) who experienced traumatic events.

Objectives: This study describes the specificity of the care pathway for young trauma victims, with an explanation of how the NPPC works during the first three years.

[Child psychiatry in pediatric intensive care unit].

A study was conducted in the pediatric intensive care and resuscitation unit of the Nice pediatric hospitals, University Hospital Center Lenval (06) from January to March 2015. Its objective was to describe the events and child psychiatric interventions experienced by young patients. Of the 181 individuals managed during the research, 63 met the inclusion criteria.

Long-term outcomes of lentiviral gene therapy for the β-hemoglobinopathies: the HGB-205 trial.

Sickle cell disease (SCD) and transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia (TDT) are the most prevalent monogenic disorders worldwide. Trial HGB-205 ( NCT02151526 ) aimed at evaluating gene therapy by autologous CD34 cells transduced ex vivo with lentiviral vector BB305 that encodes the anti-sickling β-globin expressed in the erythroid lineage. HGB-205 is a phase 1/2, open-label, single-arm, non-randomized interventional study of 2-year duration at a single center, followed by observation in long-term follow-up studies LTF-303 ( NCT02633943 ) and LTF-307 ( NCT04628585 ) for TDT and SCD, respectively.

Cardiovascular events in perimembranous ventricular septal defect with left ventricular volume overload: a French prospective cohort study (FRANCISCO).

Unlabelled: The long-term prospective multi-centre nationwide (French) observational study FRANCISCO will provide new information on perimembranous ventricular septal defect with left ventricular overload but no pulmonary hypertension in children older than 1 year. Outcomes will be compared according to treatment strategy (watchful waiting, surgical closure, or percutaneous closure) and anatomic features of the defect. The results are expected to provide additional guidance about the optimal treatment of this specific population, which is unclear at present.

EFL1 mutations impair eIF6 release to cause Shwachman-Diamond syndrome.

Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS) is a recessive disorder typified by bone marrow failure and predisposition to hematological malignancies. SDS is predominantly caused by deficiency of the allosteric regulator Shwachman-Bodian-Diamond syndrome that cooperates with elongation factor-like GTPase 1 (EFL1) to catalyze release of the ribosome antiassociation factor eIF6 and activate translation. Here, we report biallelic mutations in EFL1 in 3 unrelated individuals with clinical features of SDS.

[The psychologist in paediatric intensive care, liaison and separation].

The relationship between the interventions of liaison psychiatry and those of general medicine is essential. The psychologist, notably, plays an important role in a paediatric intensive care unit. A double temporality, somatic and psychological, is to be taken into account in order to hear, beyond the individual, what the subjet has to say.

[Autism spectrum disorders, a pilot parent-child unit].

Today, it is possible to work on the developmental trajectory of autism spectrum disorders. Due to brain plasticity, the earlier the treatment, the greater the benefits. A pilot unit has been created in a day hospital, offering a quick and intensive approach, between 18 and 36 months, focused on parental skills.

Hippocampal Sparing During Craniospinal Irradiation: What Did We Learn About the Incidence of Perihippocampus Metastases?

Purpose: To identify the incidence of patients with perihippocampal metastases to assess the risk of brain relapse when sparing the hippocampal area. Medulloblastoma (MB) represents 20% of pediatric brain tumors. For high-risk MB patients, the 3- to 5-year event-free survival rate has recently improved from 50% to >76%.

Spectrum of Clinical Responses to Therapies in Infantile Bullous Pemphigoid.

Infantile bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a rare autoimmune dermatosis characterized by the presence of antibodies against basal membrane zone proteins. Histologic and immunologic features are similar to those of the adult disease, but its clinical features may vary in children. We report here four cases of infantile BP whose atypical presentation or progression shed new light on the disease.
