Cross-cultural adaptation and reliability of the Foot Posture Index (FPI-6) - French version.

Purpose: The 6-item Foot Posture Index (FPI-6) is a reliable tool for the evaluation of foot deformities. Our aim was to translate and cross-culturally validate the FPI-6 for use in French-speaking countries and to determine the intra-rater and inter-rater reliability of the French version.

Methods: Cross-cultural adaptation was performed according to guidelines.

Evaluation of Scores to Reflect Toxicity Impact on Quality of Life of Patients With Platinum-Resistant Ovarian Cancer: AURELIA Substudy.

Background: Current standards for toxicity reporting do not fully capture the impact of adverse events (AEs) on patients' quality of life (QoL). This study aimed to evaluate the association between toxicity and QoL by using toxicity scores that take into account CTCAE grade grouping and AE duration and cumulation.

Methods: Analyses were performed on the AURELIA trial dataset, including 361 patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer treated with chemotherapy alone or with bevacizumab.

Relationship between care pathway features and use or non-use of orthotic devices by individuals with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease: a cross-sectional, exploratory study.

Purpose: Orthotic devices may be prescribed for the management of foot and ankle deformities caused by Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT). However, the actual use of these devices is variable. No studies have evaluated the impact of prescription, delivery and follow-up of orthotic devices on their use.

Revision total hip arthroplasty by a ceramic bearing surface after a third- and fourth-generation ceramic head or liner fracture.

Purpose: Although rare, fractures of ceramic components are difficult to revise, mainly due to the presence of residual ceramic debris that can cause catastrophic wear of the replacement components. Modern ceramic-on-ceramic bearings are suggested to improve outcomes of revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) for ceramic fractures. However, there are few published reports of mid-term outcomes of revision THA using ceramic-on-ceramic bearings.

Background: The optimal duration of antimicrobial therapy for urinary tract infections (UTIs) in men remains controversial.

Methods: To compare 7 days to 14 days of total antibiotic treatment for febrile UTIs in men, this multicenter randomized, double-blind. placebo-controlled noninferiority trial enrolled 282 men from 27 centers in France.

Outcomes of rescue procedures in the management of locally recurrent ampullary tumors: A Pancreas 2000/EPC study.

Background: Ampullary lesions are rare and can be locally treated either with endoscopic papillectomy or transduodenal surgical ampullectomy. Management of local recurrence after a first-line treatment has been poorly studied.

Methods: Patients with a local recurrence of an ampullary lesion initially treated with endoscopic papillectomy or transduodenal surgical ampullectomy were retrospectively included from a multi-institutional database (58 centers) between 2005 and 2018.

Conversion to Open Surgery During Minimally Invasive Right Colectomy for Cancer: Results from a Large Multinational European Study.

The risk of conversion to open surgery is inevitably present during any minimally invasive colorectal surgical procedure. Conversions have been associated with adverse postoperative and oncologic outcomes. No previous study has evaluated the specific causes and consequences of conversion during a minimally invasive right colectomy (MIS-RC).

prosthetic joint-infection outcomes: Prospective, observational study on 43 patients.

Objectives: Analysis the outcomes of prosthetic joint infection (PJI), and of their clinical and microbiological characteristics, surgical strategies and antibiotic treatments.

Methods: Monocenter cohort study in a Bone-and-Joint-Infection Referral Center (08/2004 to 10/2018) including all consecutive PJIs. Data were extracted from the prospective database, including the following events: relapses, new PJIs, related deaths.

Prosthetic Joint Infections: Is Rifampicin-Combination Therapy Beneficial?

No consensus has been reached on the optimal antibiotic regimen to treat PJIs (Ca-PJIs). In vitro studies showed excellent rifampicin efficacy against biofilm-associated infections, but clinical studies did not confirm the superiority of rifampicin-combined therapy over monotherapy. This prospective cohort study was undertaken to analyze the outcomes of 70 patients who underwent exchange arthroplasty for chronic monomicrobial Ca-PJI and were treated with rifampicin or without between 2004 and 2019.

Osteoarticular Mycoses.

Osteoarticular mycoses are chronic debilitating infections that require extended courses of antifungal therapy and may warrant expert surgical intervention. As there has been no comprehensive review of these diseases, the International Consortium for Osteoarticular Mycoses prepared a definitive treatise for this important class of infections. Among the etiologies of osteoarticular mycoses are spp.

Systematic alignments yield balanced knees without additional releases in only 11% of knee arthroplasties: a prospective study.

Purpose: The literature suggests that "forgotten" knees are the most stable knees postoperatively. The main objective of our study was to determine whether a systematic alignment (mechanical, anatomical or kinematic) makes it possible to stabilise the operated joint in extension and in flexion.

Methods: This monocentric prospective cohort study was conducted between May 1st, 2021 and October 31st, 2021.

Population Pharmacokinetics of Orally Administered Clindamycin to Treat Prosthetic Joint Infections: A Prospective Study.

A population PK model of clindamycin orally administered to patients with prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) was developed using NONMEM 7.5. Monte-Carlo simulations were run to determine the probability of obtaining bone clindamycin concentrations equal to at least the MIC or four times the MIC for several MIC values and dosing regimens.

Optimal Treatment Duration of Bevacizumab as Front-Line Therapy for Advanced Ovarian Cancer: AGO-OVAR 17 BOOST/GINECO OV118/ENGOT Ov-15 Open-Label Randomized Phase III Trial.

Purpose: To compare standard versus extended duration of bevacizumab treatment in combination with front-line chemotherapy in women with newly diagnosed stage IIB-IV ovarian cancer.

Methods: In this multicenter, open-label, randomized phase III trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01462890), patients with newly diagnosed International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage IIB-IV epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer underwent primary cytoreductive surgery followed by six cycles of chemotherapy (paclitaxel 175 mg/m plus carboplatin area under the curve 5 once every 3 weeks) and bevacizumab (15 mg/kg once every 3 weeks).

Development of a preoperative questionnaire to improve satisfaction with hallux valgus repair: A Delphi study.

Background: Satisfaction with hallux valgus repair is often poor, despite good surgical outcomes. Many tools have been developed to assess the outcome of the procedure; however none evaluate the association between the initial motive for repair and the reasons for post-surgical dissatisfaction. The aim of this study was to develop a new tool to analyse the subjective and objective expectations of individuals during a pre-operative consultation for hallux valgus repair in order to improve post-surgical satisfaction.

[Pulmonary phenotypes of inborn errors of metabolism].

Inborn metabolic diseases or inborn errors of metabolism comprise a large number of rare and heterogeneous genetic diseases categorized in several subgroups depending on their pathophysiologic mechanisms. In this review, we focus on different metabolic diseases with respiratory symptoms in adults: lysosomal glycosphingolipidoses such as acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (Niemann-Pick types A and B disease), Gaucher, Fabry, Pompe diseases and mucopolysaccharidoses in general. We also address classical homocystinuria, which is a monogenic vascular disease, Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome, which is associated with disorders in the lysosomal-related-organelles, and lysinuric protein intolerance, which is due to an amino-acid transporter defect.

Immunotherapy in MSI/dMMR tumors in the perioperative setting: The IMHOTEP trial.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) targeting Programmed death-1 (PD-1) have shown their efficacy in advanced MSI/dMMR (microsatellite instability/deficient mismatch repair) tumors. The MSI/dMMR status predicts clinical response to ICI. The promising results evaluating ICI in localized MSI/dMMR tumors in neoadjuvant setting need to be confirmed in MSI/dMMR solid tumors.

Impact of operation duration on postoperative outcomes of minimally-invasive right colectomy.

Aim: Operation time (OT) is a key operational factor influencing surgical outcomes. The present study aimed to analyse whether OT impacts on short-term outcomes of minimally-invasive right colectomies by assessing the role of surgical approach (robotic [RRC] or laparoscopic right colectomy [LRC]), and type of ileocolic anastomosis (i.e.

Evaluation of Rituximab for Induction and Maintenance Therapy in Patients 75 Years and Older With Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-Associated Vasculitis.

Importance: Older patients are underrepresented in studies of rituximab for the treatment of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis. Little is known about outcomes and adverse events associated with the use of rituximab therapy among patients 75 years and older with ANCA-associated vasculitis.

Objective: To examine outcomes and adverse events associated with the use of rituximab therapy in patients 75 years and older with ANCA-associated vasculitis, specifically granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) or microscopic polyangiitis (MPA).

Impact of mismatch repair deficiency on tumour regression grade after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in localized gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma.

Background: The use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients with mismatch repair (MMR) deficient (dMMR) localized gastric and oeso-gastric junction (OGJ) adenocarcinoma is subject of debate. Histological response assessment might help to better evaluate the impact of dMMR on response to NAC.

Methods: Patients with localized gastric/OGJ adenocarcinoma resected after NAC were retrospectively identified.
