[Play and relational and transcultural issues in occupational therapy].

In occupational therapy, intersubjective movements unfold between the professional and the patient at several levels: in the therapeutic relationship, through the activity and within the institution. A psychodynamic reading of these movements helps to develop working hypotheses. When the person being cared for and the occupational therapist are from different cultures, specific unconscious relational movements are at work.

[The question of cultural transference and countertransference in transcultural clinical practice].

Through a clinical analysis of the cultural transfers and counter-transfers at play in the exchange between a nurse and a young unaccompanied minor, the authors propose a reflection on the question of transcultural encounters in healthcare. What recognition should be given to otherness, so as not to reduce the other to his or her difference, but rather to support him or her in the construction of an identity at the heart of the issue of métissage?

[The cultural counter-transference of the caregiver in detention].

Cultural counter-transference between the different actors in the prison environment can be very strong. However, it is rarely taken into account when analyzing the interactions that healthcare professionals may have with prison officers and inmates. Health professionals working in the medical-psychological service are confronted with a number of cleavages, which could have less impact on them and their care if these counter-transferential movements were better taken into account.

Histological pattern of non-infectious thoracic aortitis impacts mortality.

Background: Non-infectious aortitis encompasses various histological patterns, but their specific cardiovascular outcomes remain unclear.

Objective: To evaluate the mortality associated with non-infectious surgical thoracic aortitis.

Methods: This retrospective multicenter study included patients who underwent thoracic aortic surgery and had histological evidence of aortitis.

Clinical impact of an explainable machine learning with amino acid PET imaging: application to the diagnosis of aggressive glioma.

Purpose: Radiomics-based machine learning (ML) models of amino acid positron emission tomography (PET) images have shown efficiency in glioma prediction tasks. However, their clinical impact on physician interpretation remains limited. This study investigated whether an explainable radiomics model modifies nuclear physicians' assessment of glioma aggressiveness at diagnosis.

Chapter 10: WHAT PARATHYROID IMAGING IS REQUIRED FOR HYPERPARATHYROIDISM?

In over 80% of cases, primary hyperparathyroidism results from hypersecretion of PTH by a single parathyroid adenoma. Multi-glandular involvement, combining adenoma and/or hyperplasia in varying proportions, is also possible, although less frequent. When the diagnosis of hyperparathyroidism is certain and surgery is envisaged, imaging is useful for locating the hyperfunctioning gland or glands.

Organoids, organs-on-chips, complex in vitro model: Definitions, applications, validation, ethics.

Over the past decade, new in vitro biological models have emerged which can reproduce certain characteristics of human physiology and pathologies. From organoids to organs-on-chips, these new technologies are currently revolutionizing the entire chain of research and development in pharmacology. All stakeholders are thus involved, from academic laboratories to pharmaceutical companies, start-ups, and assessment agencies.

Comprehensive exploration of unexplained dyspnoea in subjects with normal ejection fraction and low natriuretic peptides.

Background: Unexplained exertional dyspnoea without significant elevation of natriuretic peptides is common. One of the causes might be early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).

Aims: This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near-to-normal N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels with regard to early stages of HFpEF and non-cardiac causes.

Durable remission after ileocolic resection for Crohn's disease is achievable in selected patients. Long-term results of a prospective multicentric cohort study of the GETAID Chirurgie.

Background And Aims: Postoperative recurrence requiring medical treatment intensification or redo-surgery is common after ileocolic resection (ICR) for Crohn's disease (CD). This study aimed to identify a subgroup of CD patients for whom ICR could achieve durable remission.

Methods: This retrospective follow-up study analyzed 592 CD patients who underwent ICR (2013-2015) in a nationwide prospective cohort.

Model to explain dental visit for children aged 0 to 5: Scoping review of birth cohorts.

Introduction: Health services accessibility is a multidimensional concept. An early-life dental visit could improve child dental health. Through birth cohorts, it is possible to identify health conditions and pathways of exposure that occur earlier in life.

Exome Sequencing of Fetuses With Intracranial Hemorrhage Unravels Novel Causative Genes and an Extreme Genetic Heterogeneity.

Objective: Fetal intracranial hemorrhage (FICH) is a rare and potentially deleterious condition. Fetal alloimmune thrombocytopenia and pathogenic variations in COL4A1/A2 genes are well-recognized causes of FICH. However, pathogenic COL4A1/A2 variations are identified in only 20% of fetuses referred for FICH after excluding other known causes, leaving the majority unexplained and making genetic counseling difficult.
