Is intrapersonal emotional competence a personal resource for the quality of life of informal caregivers of cancer patients unlike interpersonal emotional competence?

Introduction: This study assessed the influence of intrapersonal (one's own emotions) and interpersonal (emotions of others) emotional competence (EC) of informal caregivers on their quality of life (QoL) at the beginning of cancer care.

Methods: Participants completed two questionnaires assessing their intrapersonal and interpersonal EC (S-PEC) as well as their QoL (SF-36) at the beginning of treatments. Multivariate ANCOVA regression analyses were then performed to explore the influence of EC on QoL.

Real-world data for marginal zone lymphoma patients in the French REALYSA cohort: The REALMA study.

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.

Avacopan for anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibodies-associated vasculitis: a multicenter real-world study.

Objectives: Avacopan, a selective C5aR1 inhibitor, recently emerged as a glucocorticoid (GCs) sparing agent in ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV). We aim to evaluate the tolerance and efficacy of avacopan given outside randomized clinical trials or with severe kidney involvement.

Methods: In this multicentre retrospective study, we reviewed the clinical charts of patients with AAV and contraindication to high dose of GCs who received avacopan 30 mg b.

Supportive care needs and anxious-depressive symptoms in cancer patients: An interaction effect between emotional competence and the COVID-19 pandemic?

The main objective was to assess the link between emotional competence (EC) and adjustment outcomes such as supportive care needs (SCN) and anxious-depressive symptoms in cancer patients starting chemotherapy. The second objective was to assess the interaction effect between EC and the COVID-19 pandemic (i.e.

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.

Attributes for a discrete-choice experiment on preferences of patients for oncology pharmacy consultations.

Purpose: To ensure the safe use of oral anticancer drugs, oncology pharmacy consultations (OPCs) have been established in France. They are conditioned by the needs, expectations, and involvement of the patients in their care. Thus, it is essential to elicit their preferences.

Association between emotional competence and risk of unmet supportive care needs in caregivers of cancer patients at the beginning of care.

Purpose: This cross-sectional study explored the associations between intrapersonal and interpersonal emotional competence (EC) and the unmet supportive care needs (SCN), anxiety, and depression of informal caregivers at the beginning of gastrointestinal or haematological cancer care, i.e. during chemotherapy and within 6 months after diagnosis.

Evaluating the safety and short-term equivalence of colchicine versus prednisone in older patients with acute calcium pyrophosphate crystal arthritis (COLCHICORT): an open-label, multicentre, randomised trial.

Background: Acute calcium pyrophosphate crystal arthritis causes intense joint pain mainly affecting older people. Because guidance and evidence remain scarce, management of this disease relies on expert opinion. We therefore aimed to compare the safety and short-term equivalence of low-dose colchicine with oral prednisone in older patients with acute calcium pyrophosphate crystal arthritis.

[Local treatments for bullous pemphigoid].

Bullous pemphigoid affects people who are usually very frail, because they are very old and frequently have neurological co-morbidities. Over the past twenty years, therapeutic management has improved thanks to the application of highly potent corticosteroid-based creams, following a well-established regimen, for several months. Well-conducted nursing care is therefore essential not only to cover wounds, but also to treat the disease.

Pursuit or discontinuation of anti-PD1 after 2 years of treatment in long-term responder patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

Background: The optimal duration of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains to be determined. Treatment durations in cornerstone phase 3 clinical trials vary between a fixed 2-year duration and pursuit until disease progression. Clinical practices may thus differ according to the attending physician.

Real-life use of apremilast for the treatment of psoriasis in patients with oncological comorbidities: a retrospective descriptive multicentre study in France.

Background: Systemic treatment options for psoriasis are limited for patients with recent neoplasia.

Objectives: We report the real-life use of apremilast (APR) in patients with psoriasis and recent cancer.

Materials & Methods: We conducted a retrospective, multicentre study in five hospitals and among 120 private dermatologists in the north of France from January 2015 to May 2021.

Emotional distress, supportive care needs and age in the prediction of quality of life of cancer patients' caregivers: A cross-sectional study.

Introduction: The existing literature shows a significant impact of cancer on caregivers' quality of life (QoL) and divergent results according to associated factors. To better understand the experience of cancer patients' caregivers, the present study aimed at comparing caregivers' QoL according to cancer care pathway and type of cancer, and at identifying the factors associated with their QoL.

Methods: Caregivers were included in the study either during chemotherapy or follow-up to assess their QoL (CARGOQoL), unmet supportive care needs (SCNS-P&C), and anxiety and depression levels (HADS).

Impact of central nervous system involvement in adult patients with Philadelphia-negative acute lymphoblastic leukemia: a GRAALL-2005 study.

Whereas the prognosis of adult patients with Philadelphia-negative acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has greatly improved since the advent of pediatric-inspired regimens, the impact of initial central nervous system (CNS) involvement has not been formerly re-evaluated. We report here the outcome of patients with initial CNS involvement included in the pediatric-inspired prospective randomized GRAALL-2005 study. Between 2006 and 2014, 784 adult patients (aged 18-59 years) with newly diagnosed Philadelphia-negative ALL were included, of whom 55 (7%) had CNS involvement.

Effectiveness and safety of risankizumab induction therapy for 100 patients with Crohn's disease: A GETAID multicentre cohort study.

Background: Phase III trials have demonstrated the efficacy of risankizumab in moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease (CD), but no real-world data are currently available. We aimed to assess the short-term effectiveness and safety of risankizumab in patients with CD.

Methods: From May 2021 to May 2022, all patients with refractory luminal CD treated with risankizumab in 22 French GETAID centres were retrospectively included.

[Association between controlled circulatory death donor waitlisting and waiting time before kidney transplantation in a French center].

Introduction: Transplantation from controlled donation after circulatory determination of death (cDCD) is a new practice in France. An additional specific consent is required for registration on the cDCD waiting list. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of cDCD acceptance on the waiting time for the registered patients on the transplant list.

Intraoperative angiography of the neurovascular bundle using indocyanine green and near-infrared fluorescence improves anatomical dissection during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy: initial clinical experience.

Landmark artery identification in the neurovascular bundle (NVB) is important for nerve-sparing in radical prostatectomy. We aimed to investigate intraoperative angiography using indocyanine green and near-infrared fluorescence (ICG-NIRF) during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) to identify the NVB, visualise vascularisation and haemostasis, and preserve erectile function. Our retrospective, unicentric study was performed in consecutive localised prostate cancer RARP patients (stage T1/T2, prostate-specific antigen < 10 ng/ml) who underwent ICG-NIRF angiography in France (2016-2021).

Unmet supportive care needs of caregivers according to medical settings of cancer patients: a cross-sectional study.

Purpose: The objectives of this study were to compare the unmet supportive care needs (SCN) of caregivers and describe the 10 most frequent of them according to various cancer settings: phase of cancer care pathway (i.e., treatment vs.
