Quantitative analysis of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in dried blood spot from mountain ultra-trail runners. Contribution of pharmacokinetic models for the interpretation of the results.

Monitoring of drug use in athletes is of interest both for health and competition-related issues. Considering the advantages of Dried Blood Sampling (low invasiveness, easy sampling, long term storage), we have validated a quantitative LC-MS/HRMS method for the screening of 16 nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. For all drugs, accuracy and imprecision were within 15% for the 3 levels of quality control and lower than 20% for the lower limit of quantification.

Safety and efficacy of odronextamab in patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma.

Background: Odronextamab, a CD20×CD3 bispecific antibody that engages cytotoxic T cells to destroy malignant B cells, has demonstrated encouraging activity across multiple subtypes of relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Patients And Methods: This phase II study (ELM-2; NCT03888105) evaluated odronextamab in patients with R/R follicular lymphoma after two or more lines of systemic therapy. Patients received intravenous odronextamab in 21-day cycles, with step-up dosing in cycle 1 to help mitigate the risk of cytokine release syndrome, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Significance of Measurable Residual Disease in Adult Philadelphia Chromosome-Positive ALL: A GRAAPH-2014 Study.

Purpose: quantification is widely regarded as the standard for monitoring measurable residual disease (MRD) in Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) ALL. However, recent evidence of multilineage involvement questions the significance of MRD. We aimed to define the prognostic role of MRD as assessed by or lymphoid-specific immunoglobulin/T-cell receptor () gene markers.

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.

Real-World efficacy and safety of combination nivolumab plus ipilimumab for Untreated, Unresectable, pleural Mesothelioma: The Meso-Immune (GFPC 04-2021) trial.

Background: First-line standard-of-care for unresectable, pleural mesothelioma (PM) changed with the phase 3 CheckMate 743 study results, showing that nivolumab plus ipilimumab (Nivo + Ipi) significantly extended overall survival (OS) versus platinum + pemetrexed chemotherapy for PM (median OS 18.1 versus 14.1 months; hazard ratio: 0.

Autophagy Promotes Enrichment of Raft Components within Extracellular Vesicles Secreted by Human 2FTGH Cells.

Autophagy plays a key role in removing protein aggregates and damaged organelles. In addition to its conventional degradative functions, autophagy machinery contributes to the release of cytosolic proteins through an unconventional secretion pathway. In this research, we analyzed autophagy-induced extracellular vesicles (EVs) in HT1080-derived human fibrosarcoma 2FTGH cells using transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM).

Novel insights into the GCN2 pathway and its targeting. Therapeutic value in cancer and lessons from lung fibrosis development.

Defining the mechanisms that allow cells to adapt to environmental stress is critical for understanding the progression of chronic diseases and identifying relevant drug targets. Among these, activation of the pathway controlled by the eIF2-alpha kinase GCN2 is critical for translational and metabolic reprogramming of the cell in response to various metabolic, proteotoxic, and ribosomal stressors. However, its role has frequently been investigated through the lens of a stress pathway signaling via the eIF2α-activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) downstream axis, while recent advances in the field have revealed that the GCN2 pathway is more complex than previously thought.

How to treat monogenic SLE?

Systemic lupus erythematosus is a rare and life-threatening autoimmune disease characterized by autoantibodies against double-stranded DNA, with an immunopathology that remains partially unclear. New insights into the disease have been provided by the discovery of key mutations leading to the development of monogenic SLE, occurring in the context of early-onset disease, syndromic lupus, or familial clustering. The increased frequency of discovering these mutations in recent years, thanks to the advent of genetic screening, has greatly enhanced our understanding of the immunopathogenesis of SLE.

Scrotal reconstruction after Fournier's Gangrene using the superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator (SCIP) propeller flap: A case report.

Introduction: Fournier's gangrene, a rare infectious condition affecting the external genitalia, often requires aggressive medical-surgical interventions, resulting in variable scrotal tissue loss. Despite numerous proposed reconstruction techniques, achieving a consensus on the most effective approach that balances aesthetics and function remains elusive. This case report presents a one-year follow-up on scrotal reconstruction using a pedicled Superficial Circumflex Iliac Artery Perforator (SCIP) propeller flap.

Outcomes after radical nephrectomy with vena cava thrombectomy using multidisciplinary approach: A single center experience.

Introduction: To describe the perioperative outcomes in patients treated with radical nephrectomy with cava thrombectomy at all thrombi levels using a multidisciplinary approach, with or without extracorporeal circulation (ECC), and to identify factors associated with perioperative morbidity.

Methods: We retrospectively identified 42 patients who were diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and a vena cava thrombus and treated with radical nephrectomy and cava thrombectomy by a double surgical team at Lyon University Hospital from 2008 through 2021. The surgeons operated in the cardiothoracic operating theater to proceed with median sternotomy or ECC, if necessary.

Intraperitoneal Nivolumab after Debulking Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in Advanced Ovarian Cancer: A Phase I Study with Expansion Cohort.

Purpose: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) are expected to be synergistic with intraperitoneal (IP) immunotherapy by increasing tumor antigen expression and mutational load. We assessed the feasibility and safety of IP nivolumab following complete CRS and HIPEC in pretreated patients with recurrent ovarian cancer (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03959761).

JAK inhibitors in refractory juvenile rheumatic diseases: Efficacy, tolerance and type-I interferon profiling, a single center retrospective study.

Objectives: - Janus Kinase inhibitors (JAKi) are a new class of drugs available for pediatric rheumatic diseases. This study aimed to describe the safety and effectiveness of JAKi in these diseases, with a focus on longitudinal interferon-stimulated genes (ISG) assessment.

Methods: - We present a single-center retrospective study of children with refractory pediatric rheumatic diseases including connective tissue diseases, monogenic type I interferonopathies or juvenile idiopathic arthritis, receiving JAKi.

Development and validation of the tic score for early detection of traumatic coagulopathy upon hospital admission: a cohort study.

Background: Critically injured patients need rapid and appropriate hemostatic treatment, which requires prompt identification of trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC) upon hospital admission. We developed and validated the performance of a clinical score based on prehospital resuscitation parameters and vital signs at hospital admission for early diagnosis of TIC.

Methods: The score was derived from a level-1 trauma center registry (training set).

Long-term Outcome of Risankizumab in Crohn's Disease: a Real-world GETAID Study.

Background & Aims: The aim of this study was to assess the long-term effectiveness and safety of risankizumab maintenance treatment in a large real-world cohort of patients with Crohn's Disease (CD).

Methods: From May 2021 to August 2023, all consecutive patients with CD treated with risankizumab in 25 GETAID centers have been retrospectively included. The primary endpoint was steroid-free clinical remission (Harvey Bradshaw Index [HBI] <5) at 52 weeks.
