title: Links Between Motor Abilities and Language Ability Deficits in Patients With Post-stroke Aphasia

acronym: MOTOLANG-AVC

summary:
Aphasia is a language disorder that affects oral and written expression and/or comprehension. It's one of the most disabling consequence of stroke. Nowadays, aphasia rehabilitation is supported by speech therapists and is based on oral and written language, comprehension and expression. However recent studies have shown links between language and motor function (especially tool use). Two domains that share neural substrates (Broca's area, basal ganglia) and that can influence each other.

The aim of this study is to show that a motor training with a tool (pliers) can improve short-term and long-term language abilities of aphasic patients who had a stroke at least 3 months ago.

The investigators hypothesis is that there is a learning transfer between tool use and language abilities in aphasic patients with an inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) lesion caused by a stroke, thanks to their shared neural resources.

Investigators aim to study long and short-time effects of this tool motor training with three experiments:

E1 will study short-term effects by estimating pre-post effect of a motor training on language abilities. Investigators will experiment different effectors: tool, hand, none (control group); on patients and healthy volunteers.
E2 will study long-term effects with multiple single-case experimental designs (SCED). Patients will undergo four weeks of on-off design.
E3 will study long-term effects by estimating the efficiency of an experimental sensorimotor protocol of four weeks, comparing a group of patients with the experimental sensorimotor protocol to a control group of patients

title: Effects of Mindfulness Meditation in Virtual Reality on Craving and Smoking Cessation

acronym: VIREAMIND

summary:
Investigators seek to propose a non-drug therapeutic alternative, namely a mindfulness meditation protocol based on virtual reality training in order to induce progressive modifications of various indicators of craving.

The study hypothesis is that the practice of mindfulness meditation in a virtual reality environment reduces the craving induced by cues and stress and therefore ultimately smoking relapse.

The main objective of the protocol will be to demonstrate that mindfulness meditation can reduce long-term relapse (continuous cessation (> 30 days) of smoking cessation).

The participants will be randomized into two groups: the experimental group will perform six virtual reality sessions in a multisensory cabin at the rate of one session per week; the control group will be prescribed the gold standard treatment (nicotine patches and chewing gum).

Participants will be seen again at three and six months to assess whether or not there has been a smoking relapse.

title: Immunological Functionnal Test Validation to Predict Melanoma Metastatic Patient Response to Checkpoint Inhibitors - Melanoma Quantiferon

acronym: mela-quantif

summary: Checkpoint inhibitor such as anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 are known to block inhibitory signals and increase the immune antimutoral response. Nivolumab and Ipilimumab association is considered as a more efficient immunotherapy to treat advanced melanoma. This combined immunotherapy is also responsible of severe immunes toxicyties. Identification of predictives biomarqueurs remains a challenge to predict the balance between tolerability and efficency. Previous data showed that advanced melanoma patient had lower level of Th1 cytokines that predict a less efficient immune system than healthy donors. The second point was that high level of Th1 and Th17 cytokines were correlate to a better tumor response. The last point was that patients with severe immune toxicity showed an increase of IL-6 and IL17a production. The investigators would like to identify the predictive values of Th1, Th2 and Th17 at the begining and during the combined immunotherapy and correlate these cytokines levels secretions to a potential efficient tumor response or to the emergence of induced immunes toxicities. This study is an original approach using functionnal test to predict the balance between efficienty and tolerability.

title: Effectiveness of a Hip Abductor Training in Women With Stress Urinary Incontinence

acronym: PROTOGLUT

summary:
Urinary incontinence (UI) is estimated to affect 25% à 45 % women all over the world. UI is associated with a poor Quality of life, with a strong level of certainty. Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is the second more prevalent type of UI . First-line treatment for SUI is conservative, non-drug and non-surgical treatment. Among these techniques, physiotherapist-supervised pelvic floor muscle (PFM) training (PFMT) as a first-line treatment; however, only half of women with SUI are cured with PFMT.

Brain imaging shows that PFMs (involved in continence mechanisms) and gluteal muscles can activate the same cortical region. This synergy is found if the gluteal muscles are voluntarily activated, but not if the PFMs are volontary activated alone . In women, hip abductor physiotherapy is a common practice which has already been the subject of a very extensive literature and has largely shown its effectiveness in the quality of lumbo-pelvic control, balance, quality of life and risk of fall prevention. This rehabilitation is based on exercises that induce solicitation of the hip abductors by synergistic reflex activation during a range of well-known exercises. Recent work has shown the effect of hip abductors on the activation of the PFMs . Until today, there is no literature evaluating the effectiveness of a hip abductors training program without associated voluntary contraction of the PFMs (PPM) on UI. The hypothesis of this work will be to demonstrate that a complementary training focused on the hip abductor, complementary to concomitant PFMT, would benefit from a more significant improvement in continence, and also in physical abilities and quality of life. Because balance seems involved in UI, we therefore propose to to observe the effects on the frontal balance of the pelvis. As the investigators have already done in previous studies, to identifying factors that predict the success of our interventions, investiagtors have planned to evaluate the observance and adherence of our patients .Complementary, the investigators planned to evaluate the effect of both intervention on pelvic floor muscles and hip abductors strength and endurance, pelvic organ prolapse symptoms and quality of life. For this objective, the investigators intend to compare two randomized parallel groups: Group A follow a 12 sessions supervised PFMT + home based PFMs exercices. Group B follow a 12 sessions supervised PFMT + home based hip abductor exercices.

title: Genotype Expression and Phenotype of Endothelial Cells, Carrying an ACVRL1, ENG or SMAD4 Mutation, in Response to BMP9 for the Identification of New Therapeutic Targets in Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia

acronym: CAERO

summary:
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) or Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome patients are carriers of a heterozygous mutation of the activin receptor-like kinase 1 (ACVRL1), Endoglin (ENG) or Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 4 (SMAD4) gene. HHT involves the Bone Morphogenetic Protein 9 (BMP9)/Activin receptor-Like Kinase 1 (ALK1)-endoglin signalling pathway. BMP9 is a growth factor that binds to ALK1 receptor and to endoglin its co-receptors and physiologically activates Smad signaling pathway. Endothelial cells in HHT patients display half expression of functional ALK1 receptors or endoglin co-receptors or of the transcription factor SMAD4, which should lead to effects on the functions of these cells.

The identification of differences in gene expression between endothelial cells from HHT patients and healthy donors will allow the identification of new functions or new target pathways for therapy. Circulating endothelial cells are rare in the bloodstream in adults, but are present in greater quantities in cord blood.

title: Daytime Cyclic Enteral Nutrition Versus Standard Continuous Enteral Nutrition in the Intensive Care Unit: a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

acronym: DC-SCENIC

summary:
Critical care patients experience systemic aggression, which may be the result of trauma, infection or other systemic inflammatory mechanisms. The initial phase of their illness is characterized by metabolic instability and increased catabolism. Nutrition goals in these patients are therefore, on the one hand, to provide sufficient caloric intake to cover energy expenditure while limiting the risks of inappropriate under-feeding, overfeeding- or re-feeding syndrome, and on the other hand, to meet the protein requirements linked to hypercatabolism. In the absence of contraindication, current recommandations state that an intensive care patient who cannot be fed orally, shoul receive continuous enteral nutrition over 24 hours by gastric tube within 48 hours of admission.

However, this 24-hour continuous nutrition method does not correspond to the physiological habit of the human species which includes a physiological nighttime fasting period.This fasting period induces a metabolic switch that regulates several pathways, including glycemic control, oxidative stressresistance and DNA repair. Furthermore, it takes part un the synchronization of cellular circadian rhythms.

Investigator hypothetises that diurnal cyclic enteral nutrition may improve the prognosis of severe intensive care patients compared to continuous enteral nutrition.

summary: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous clonal myeloid neoplasm where abnormal proliferation and impaired differentiation of hematopoietic stem and myeloid progenitor cells impedes normal hematopoiesis. Sulfasalazine (SSZ) is a broadly available, well tolerated anti-inflammatory medicine approved for the treatment of ulcerative colitis and rheumatoid arthritis. Intact SSZ, but not its metabolites 5-aminosalicylic acid and sulfapyridine, competitively inhibits xCT.21 SSZ is thus an ideal candidate for drug repurposing in AML.The purpose of this phase I study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of such strategy, provide preliminary signals of efficacy, and identify potential biomarkers

summary:
The practice of ultrasounds increases in delivery rooms every year. Indeed, this method can help to visualize elements that may not be observable after clinical examination. Moreover, it is known that a fetal head engagement can lead to an instrumental extraction and in case of error, which happens in some cases, fetal and maternal risks are possible.

These elements led to the investigators' hypothesis which is that a trans-perineal ultrasonography may facilitate the evaluation of a clinical fetal head engagement in case of doubt.

title: Assessment of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in Patients With Wide QRS and Non-specific Intraventricular Conduction Delay: a Randomized Trial

acronym: NICD-CRT

summary:
The aim of the NICD-CRT study is to assess whether CRT may be clinically beneficial in HF patients with NICD and reduced ejection fraction on 12-month HF status.

In effect, the effectiveness of cardiac resynchronization therapy in heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction patients with non specific intraventricular conduction delay (NICD) has never been confirmed even if it is recommended.

At the moment, no dedicated study has already been performed to assess the benefit of CRT in patients with NICD. Results from CRT therapy are contradictory in this patient group and have only been obtained from subgroup analysis. Some of them don't show clinical benefit but others show a benefit in term of an end-diastolic and/or end-systolic left ventricular volume (decrease of the size and the volumes of left ventricule).

The AHA/ACCF guidelines, published in 2005 and updated in 2009, considered only QRS duration (≥120 ms) for the indication of CRT implantation, without any consideration for the type of conduction disorder (i.e. LBBB vs. non-LBBB), current updated 2012 ACCF/AHA/HRS guidelines, consider QRS morphology (i.e. LBBB) as the first step for CRT candidate selection in addition to QRS duration (>150 ms). Indications for resynchronization have been restricted since indication of CRT in non-LBBB patients (e.g. NICD) is only a class IIa (>150 ms, only in NYHA III and ambulatory IV; level of evidence A). The same modifications have been applied between 2011 and 2013 in the European guidelines. None is known about patients with NICD and QRS > 130 ms.

title: Molecular Characterization of Apparently Balanced Chromosomal Rearrangements by Next-generation Sequencing in 55 Patients With Intellectual Disability and/or Multiple Congenital Anomalies

acronym: ANI

summary:
Apparently balanced chromosomal rearrangement (ABCR) associated with an abnormal phenotype is a rare but problematic event. It occurs in 6% of de novo reciprocal translocations and 9% of de novo inversions. Abnormal phenotype, including intellectual disability and / or multiple congenital anomalies (ID/MCA) may be explained either by associated cryptic genomic imbalances detectable by array-CGH or by gene disruption at the breakpoint. However, breakpoint cloning using conventional methods (i.e., fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), Southern blot) is often laborious and time consuming and cannot be performed routinely. Without complete investigation of these rearrangements, genetic counseling is a real challenge. Recently, the investigators and others showed that Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) is a powerful and rapid technique to characterize ABCR breakpoints at the molecular level.

The ANI project (ABCR NGS ID) aims at characterizing at the molecular level ABCR in 55 patients presenting with intellectual disability and/or multiple congenital anomalies (ID/MCA) using NGS. The investigators make the hypothesis that ABCR account for the patient phenotype, either by gene disruption or position effect, since genomic imbalance would have been previously excluded by array-Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH).

The ANI project is a 3-year-long study that will be conducted by a consortium of 21 partners, including 19 french hospital cytogenetics laboratories, a research team (TIGER), and a cellular biotechnology center. Patients will be recruited by each Cytogenetics laboratory. ABCR breakpoints will be molecularly characterized by NGS and a first bio-informatics analysis. The results will be verified by amplification of junction fragments by polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) followed by Sanger sequencing, allowing the localization of breakpoints at the base-pair level. In some complex cases, FISH experiment will be necessary to clarify the results. A second bio-informatics analysis will then determine breakpoints' characteristics (sequence, repeated elements, gene and regulatory elements). Finally, for each breakpoint, gene expression studies will be performed including the gene disrupted by the breakpoint and two neighboring genes. All these data, together with those already available in the literature and databases will be integrated to determine if the gene could account for the patient's phenotype, allowing an appropriate genetic counseling.

This project will identify new candidate genes involved in ID and developmental anomalies. It will also contribute to the development and evaluation of NGS as a diagnostic tool for ABCR and ID/MCA. It will also allow unraveling mechanisms and functional consequences of ABCR, in particular in term of position effect.

In conclusion, the ANI project will contribute to the improvement of diagnostic management and genetic counseling of patients with ID/MCA and ABCR. It will also contribute to the understanding of ABCR physiopathology and to the unraveling of pathway involved in development and brain function, thus improving genetic counseling for ID/MCA patients in general.

title: Prospective Observational Study About Pregnancy and Medically Assisted Conception in Rare Diseases

summary:
Rare diseases frequently affect women of childbearing age. Pregnancy in these women has become less rare, but remains associated with high levels of complications. One obstacle to their optimal management during pregnancy is that there are no prospective studies of pregnancy during rare diseases and several connective tissue diseases. As a consequence, the management of these pregnancies is non-standardised in terms of treatment, monitoring (frequency of consultations, laboratory tests and ultrasound), and organisation of care.

Moreover, although these women (all diseases combined) are frequently exposed to medications potentially incompatible with pregnancy, little is known about the frequency of these exposures and especially their consequences to mother and child.

For these reasons, researchers and clinicians from different specialties created an interdisciplinary research group on pregnancy and rare diseases (GR2), intended to improve the management of these patients' pregnancies. Using a single computer server, the investigators plan to set up a large prospective study of pregnancies in patients with rare diseases: various forms of myositis, lupus, antiphospholipid syndrome, Sjogren syndrome, scleroderma, and inflammatory rheumatic diseases. The investigators objective is to analyse the complications of pregnancies in women with rare diseases and then to improve their management and their quality of life.

title: Assessment of Lung Involvement in Cystic Fibrosis Patients Using 1.5T MR Imaging With Ultrashort Echo Time (UTE) Pulse Sequences

acronym: MucoIRM

summary: Non-invasive assessment of lung involvement is a crucial issue for the follow-up of cystic fibrosis patients. Currently, CT is the method of reference to evaluate and quantify the lung morphological changes in cystic fibrosis adults but it remains a radiation-based technique. MRI with ultrashort echo time (UTE) pulse sequences is a promising non-ionizing alternative for lung imaging. The investigators' objective is to evaluate cystic fibrosis lung involvement using CT and MRI-UTE, and to test the agreement between both techniques.

title: Accuracy of Point-of-Care Measurement of Electrolytes, Glucose, Hemoglobin and Hematocrit With the RapidPoint 500 Blood Gas Analyser

acronym: (POCREA)

summary: ICU patients are at high risk of ionic or metabolic disturbances during the course of their critical illness. Some of these disturbances might be life-threatening and require rapid response from physicians. Point-of-Care determination of electrolytes, glucose, hemoglobin and hematocrit ensures early detection (within 1 minute) of abnormal values and allows rapid and appropriate therapy. This technology has largely improved the quality of care in ICU. However, the accuracy of the measurement of those parameters had to be close enough to the reference method, usually perfomed in the central lab but time consuming. Recently, a novel generation of blood gas analyser has been released. Among them, the RapidPoint 500 is mounted with a 28-day cartridge which provides automatic calibrations and quality controls several times a day. Such a technology dramatically decreases the need for labs technical interventions. To date, there is no data reporting the accuracy of this device. Therefore, the investigators' aim is to compare the accuracy of the RapidPoint 500 with a reference measurement performed at the central laboratory (Beckman&Coulter AU5800 for electrolytes and Beckman&Coulter DXH for hemoglobin).

title: Assessment the Dosage of Troponin T Hypersensitive Dosage in a Patient Population Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis (ECHOTnT)

acronym: ECHOTnT

summary:
"Troponin T (TnT) is a component of the contractile apparatus of the striated musculature. Although the function of TnT is the same in all striated muscles found in the heart to form a TNT (cardiac TnT) differing significantly TnT of the skeletal muscles. Because of its high tissue specificity, cardiac TnT is a specific marker and highly sensitive of myocardial injury.

Asymptomatic elevations of troponins is frequently found in patients with chronic renal failure in stage V, which present no clinical signs of acute or electrical myocardial injury.

Many studies have been conducted in recent years to explain the origin and clinical significance of this elevation, but the results are controversial: cardiac dysfunction, left ventricular hypertrophy or chronic inflammation.

Besides the effect of the dialysis session was evaluated on this biological parameter in different studies which together do not find Impact hemodialysis session on the value of troponin Achieving dosages rate hypersensitive serum troponin T in a dialysis population, will:

to determine the evolution of TnT in time and what are the characteristics of the patients for whom this rate varies
to know what its evolution during the session,
to identify if possible the criteria that are responsible for the variation in the direction of increasing and / or its reduction
and to characterize patients whose base rate is higher than the 99 percentile in the absence of clinical symptoms which could lead to establish reference population for this specific normal values. The Purpose of this study is to evaluate the serum troponin T in a hypersensitive dialysis population and verify what is the influence of the hemodialysis session, the session parameters and intradialytic events on changes in serum troponin T hypersensitive after a hemodialysis session.

title: Contribution of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Magnetic Susceptibility Imaging and Resting Activation Imaging) in the Diagnosis of Parkinsonian Syndromes in Elderly Subjects.

acronym: PARKIMAGE

summary:
Parkinsonian syndrome is clinically characterized by the presence of resting tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia and postural instability. Parkinsonian disorders include Parkinson's disease (PD), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal dementia (CBD), multiple system atrophy (MSA) and vascular parkinsonism (VP). Each of these diseases has a singular physiopathological origin, course and prognosis. Numerous imaging studies consequently aimed at finding markers to early make the distinction between the different types of parkinsonism, in order to identify patients who could benefit from dopaminergic agonist therapy.

Excessive iron deposition in the subcortical and brainstem nuclei has been described in numerous neurodegenerative disorders including Parkinson's disease. Increased iron levels are more frequent in area that are rich in dopaminergic neurons and have been implicated in the development of movement disorders, the distribution of areas with increased iron deposition however varying according to parkinsonism types. Iron deposition quantification could thus potentially help in differentiating parkinsonism types and could improve therapy guidance. Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) locally estimates the magnetic susceptibility of brain tissues based on gradient-echo signal phase. The local susceptibility being sensitive to the presence of paramagnetic susbtances, QSM allows the non-invasive evaluation of iron distribution and quantification in the brain with high image quality (Liu et al., 2013). However, since iron deposition followed an exponential curve during normal aging in most of the basal ganglia the potential of QSM to distinguish between healthy and parkinsonian subjects in elderly remains unclear.

The aim of this study was thus to determine susceptibility values in the basal ganglia of elderly patients with parkinsonian syndromes, to compare these values to healthy aged-matched controls and between parkinsonian syndrome types. Secondly, investigators aimed to evaluate microstructural changes in the basal ganglia using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in the same population and to determine whether susceptibility and DTI parameter changes are correlated. Finally investigators sought to assess the relation between susceptibility/DTI parameter values in the basal ganglia and behavioral measures of motor and cognitive abilities.

title: Co-operative Behavior and Decision-making in Frontal Lobe Epilepsy

summary:
Epilepsy is a frequent neurological disorder with about a third of patients having seizures despite treatment. At least some of these seizures can be linked to a low compliance and therapy adherence of patients. Compliance is defined as "the extent to which a person's behavior (in terms of taking medication, following diets, or executing life style changes) coincides with medical or health advice". Therapy adherence of patients suffering from epilepsy is low with reported rates between 30 and 50%, although adherence to anticonvulsive drug therapy is critical for effective disease management and low therapy adherence is associated to higher mortality in epilepsy. The reasons for low therapy adherence are still a matter of research. Some known factors influencing compliance in epilepsy are related to its chronic nature, but others seem to lie in a complex interaction between psychiatric comorbidity and an impairment of neural systems underlying behavior. Furthermore, therapy adherence rests a variable difficult to measure, especially in epileptic patients where classical tools such as questionnaires and electronic monitoring devices have been shown to be imprecise. It has been argued that the term 'compliance' should be replaced by 'co-operative behavior' and non-compliance can therefore be interpreted as troubled co-operative behavior. This behavioral approach offers the potential of using tools and methods of the latest developments in behavioral neuroscience. Neuroeconomics, a scientific field on the border of psychology, economics and neuroscience, has used economic game paradigms in order to operationalize cooperative behavior and to identify several brain areas by functional brain imaging that have been linked to social co-operative behavior. The majority of these brain areas are located in the frontal cortex [ventromedial frontal/orbitofrontal cortex, and rostral anterior cingulate cortex. Epilepsies originating in the frontal lobe are subsumed under the term "frontal lobe epilepsy" (FLE) and represent 20-30% of all partial seizures and 25% of all refractory focal epilepsies referred to epilepsy surgery.

The investigator's project plans to study compliance and cooperative behavior of patients suffering from frontal lobe epilepsies through a neuroeconomic approach by (1) comparing the behavior of these patients in the prisoners' dilemma game to the behavior of age-, gender-, and education-matched healthy controls, (2) correlation of game behavior to brain activation measured by functional magnetic resonance imaging in both patients and healthy controls and (3) studying the link between cooperative behavior to compliance captured by pill counts and questionnaires.

title: Use of the DBS for the Follow-up of Blood Clinical Parameters of Old People

acronym: DBSage

summary:
It is about an interventional study.The use of the blotting paper called "Dried Blood Spot" or DBS is a method of systematic neonatal screening of the metabolic diseases. Indeed, it has multiple interests: realized thanks to lancets, it is much less invasive than a classic blood collection. Besides, the transport of the blood sampling is facilitated because most of the analysts are stable on DBS at room temperature one week or more. Finally the use of this DM reduces the infectious risks bound to the manipulation of the blood sampling and to the inactivation of microorganisms. The moderate results are vitamin D, albumin, prealbumin, CRP, orosomucoide

The DBS presents a major interest for the care of the old and fragile people who have on one hand a low peripheral venous capital and on the other hand for whom the possibility of a dosage on DBS will allow a facilitated biological follow-up. Indeed it is very important to detect as soon as possible the most fragile old people, those who have the biggest risk of seeing their health degrading during a physical, psychic or social stress, to concentrate the efforts of coverage and limit these risks. The advantage of the biological criteria is the speed of the test making (a blood test), in the absence of necessity of active participation by the patient (the clinical criteria require to test the patient in the walking, to test its muscular strength, etc.) and in the saving of time diagnosis for the clinician. The blood biological markers of the fragility are essentially the rate of 25OH vitamin D, the markers of undernutrition (albumin, prealbumin) and of the inflammation (CRP, orosomucoïde). These last four parameters are now measurable from the DBS thanks to the quantitative mass spectrometry.

title: Factors Associated With Relapses in Patients Suffering From Clostridium Difficile Infection: Immune Response

acronym: ICD

summary: Clostridium difficile is responsible for up to 25% of reported antibiotic associated diarrhea cases and virtually all cases of pseudomembranous colitis (PMC). The clinical spectrum of C. difficile infection (CDI) varies in severity from asymptomatic carriage to self-limited, mild, watery diarrhea, to PMC, intestinal perforation, toxic megacolon, sepsis, fulminant colitis, and death. In the past decade, the 027/NAP1/BI strain has emerged world-wide and has been implicated in large outbreaks with increased severity, frequent recurrence, and significant mortality. The host immune responses can influence the severity of CDI and play crucial roles in CDI onset, progression, and overall prognosis. Low serum concentrations of antibodies directed against the toxins A&B of C. difficile have been associated with a higher risk of recurrence. However, there are conflicting reports.

title: Impact of the Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) on the Ventricular Remodeling After Acute Myocardial Infarction

acronym: SAS-IDM

summary:
Coronary artery disease is a common and serious disease, the leading cause of death worldwide. Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is common and often under-diagnosed in coronary artery disease where it could be involved in the pathophysiology and perhaps prognosis. The entanglement of the two pathologies is actually quite well known, in particular the consequences of one over the other just beginning to be studied. Understanding the pathophysiology through new imaging modalities should improve the management of patients to propose new approaches.

"SAS-IDM" is an interventional and prospective study conducted at the University Hospital of Montpellier. Patients will be divided in three groups depending of the results of the polysomnography: 1/ AHI < 5/h: normal, without OSA ; 2/ 5/h ≤ AHI < 30/h: mild or moderate OSA ; 3/ IAH ≥ 30/h: severe OSA. A treatment by CPAP will be proposed to patients of the group "severe OSA".

title: Correlation Between the Pulse Pressure / Heart Rate Ratio Variations and Stroke Volume Variations During Fluid Challenge.

acronym: ΔPP/HRvsΔSV

summary:
In high perioperative risk patients, guidelines suggest intraoperative haemodynamic optimization by measurement of stroke volume (SV) to guide fluid resucitation.This strategy requires an invasive monitoring and learning. Some studies tried to find SV surrogates based on haemodynamic usual parameters. In an experimental hemorrhagic shock, SV was correlated to the pulse pressure (PP) / heart rate (HR) ratio.

The investigators hypothesized that SV variations (ΔSV) would be correlated to the PP/HR ratio variations (ΔPP / HR) during fluid challenge, and ΔPP / HR would be able to detect a ΔSV greater than 10%.

title: Study of Neuroplasticity on Depressed Patients Versus Healthy Subjects : Modulation of the MEP Size Induced by Theta Burst Stimulation

acronym: DEPLAS

summary: Neuroplasticity is supposed to be altered in patients suffering from a Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is a medical device which measures cerebral plasticity. Several parameters of cortical excitability are available for that purpose. These parameters are altered on patients wth MDD and these modifications are corrected after treatment. Therefore results in the studies are very heterogeneous. Theta Burst Stimulation (TBS) is a type a Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) protocol and can induce cerebral plasticity. The cerebral plasticity induced by TBS was measured on a group of patients suffering from Asperger's disease (ASD) versus a control group. The plasticity was significantly different in patients with ASD. The aim of our study is to study the neuroplasticity induced by TBS on a patients with MDD.

title: Evaluation of an Iris Dilatation Ring in Cataract Surgery

acronym: ADICC-ID

summary:
During cataract surgery, it is necessary to dilate the iris in order to remove the crystalline lens and position the implant. The diameter of the optical implant being 6 mm, in case of capsulorhexis crystalline access 5.5 mm, the expansion should be at least 6 mm.

At pre-operative consultation, the iris is always dilated by instillation of eye drops and measured at the slitlamp. For patients with an inadequate dilation, the intervention requires the use of a mechanical dilatation device.

This study aims to assess the value of an alternative dilatation ring to Malyugin ring, which can be inserted and removed through an incision of less than 2 mm in diameter, due to its size smaller than that of the Malyugin ring.

Our hypothesis is that this Bhattacharjee ring ensures sufficient and stable iris dilation during surgery, enabling implant placement in good conditions.

title: Validation, for Orbital Tumors, of the MRI Perfusion Curves Typology Established for Salivary Tumors

acronym: PERFORM

summary:
Orbital masses develop at the expense of the orbital structures lacrimal glands, oculomotor muscles, optic nerve, meningeal spaces, peripheral nerves, bone wall, orbital fat, lymphoid structures or vascular structures. These masses can be tumors, benign or malignant, or pseudotumor, mainly represented by specific or non-specific orbital inflammation.

Pathology is of considerable importance for the diagnosis and the treatment of those masses. However, biopsy or surgical resection of the orbital masses is sometimes difficult and dangerous outside expert centers.

The identification of a non-invasive technique for distinguishing tumors from pseudotumors, thus avoid in some cases a biopsy, would be a major contribution for the patients.

For salivary glands, MRI allows to identify 4 different types of MRI characteristics, one (type C) being related to malignant tumors.

In this study, the investigators will try to see if extrapolation of those data to orbiltal tumors is feasible.


title: Extended Follow Up of the Mainritsan 2 Study. Comparison Between a Long Term and a Conventional Maintenance Treatment With Rituximab: a Placebo- Controlled Randomized Trial

summary:
MAINRITSAN study compared Rituximab and azathioprine as maintenance therapy for ANCA-associated vasculitides. In this study, Rituximab (5 infusions at D1, D15, M6, M12, M18) was superior to azathioprine (2 mg/kg/day) to prevent relapses of AAV 28 months after the inclusion (Guillevin et al. NEJM 2014). Nevertheless, in the follow-up study of MAINRITSAN, up to 30% of patients experienced a relapse 38 months after the last rituximab infusion (unpublished data). Right now, no randomized controlled study has been carried in order to evaluate the best duration of the maintenance treatment with rituximab.

The investigators objective is to evaluate the efficacy of a long term rituximab treatment to prevent relapses of ANCA-associated vasculitis in patients in remission after a first phase of rituximab maintenance treatment.

The investigators will conduct a randomized placebo-controlled trial of a long term rituximab maintenance treatment (46 months) against a conventional maintenance treatment (18 months).

title: Study of Ion Transport From Nasal Epithelial Cells Collected by Brushing (CCBN) in the Diagnosis of Atypical Forms of Cystic Fibrosis

acronym: MUCO-BROCC

summary: The diagnosis of CF is currently based on the discovery of two CFTR gene mutations and / or a positive sweat test (> 60mmol / l). A significant number of patients with atypical cystic fibrosis (chronic sino-pulmonary disease with a single mutation in the CFTR gene and / or a test of the intermediate sweat between 30 and 60 mmol / l) undetected by these techniques are behind specialized care while irreversible lung damage is already existed. Currently, the measurement of nasal potential difference in vivo (DPN), which evaluates the transportation of chlorine in the nasal epithelium with an electrode, is proposed for the diagnosis of atypical forms. However DPN dependent nasal local conditions when analysing do not always offer the possibility of concluding the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis. It is necessary to develop new and more reliable diagnostic tests for the detection of cases of atypical cystic fibrosis. The authors propose to develop a new diagnostic technique based on the study of bioelectric properties of a preparation of nasal cells of the subject obtained by brushing and placed in primary culture (CCBN).

title: Impact of Intravenous Exenatide Versus Insulin on Quality of Life in Cardiac Surgery Patients: an Ancillary Study of the ExSTRESS Phase II/III Clinical Trial

acronym: ExeQOL

summary:
A diminution of quality of life is often reported by patients after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. A part of this diminution could be explain by postoperative left ventricular (LV) dysfunction.

Exenatide (Byetta®) is an incretin mimetic, characterized by an anti-hyperglycemic effect that depends on the blood glucose level. Recent data have suggested that exenatide could improve LV function by an inotropic effect in patients suffering from cardiogenic shock or from congestive heart failure. Moreover, patients suffering from congestive heart failure reported a better quality of life when they were treated with exenatide compared to placebo.

The investigators hypothesize that perioperative exenatide infusion could improve postoperative quality of life in CABG surgery patients.

title: A Comparison Between the Aysis® Cs2 (General Electrics) Ventilator in EtControl® Mode and the Perseus® A 500 (Dräger) in VaporView® Mode on Maniability and Consumption of Desflurane

acronym: ConsoHalo

summary:
The Aysis® Cs2 ventilator offers an automated control of end-tidal inhalation anesthetic concentration, the EtControl® mode. A low Fresh Gas Flow (FGF) (0.5L/min) is kept during the maintenance of the anesthesia, decreasing the expensive consumption of halogenated agents.

The Perseus® A 500 offers a VaporView® mode that gives the evolution of inspired (Fi) and end-tidal (Fe) fractions of halogenated agents for 20 minutes based on the delivered fraction (Fd). FGF remains adjusted manually by the practitioner. This mode also makes it possible to maintain a low FGF (0.5 L/min), provided the halogen Fd is set to maintain a steady Fe curve.

The goal of this work was to compare the maniability of the intraoperative administered concentrations and the consumption of Desflurane between these 2 modalities of administration.

title: Cancer and Deafness Associated With the Use of Platinum Derivatives in Children

acronym: OTOPLAT

summary: A limited number of relatively contradictory studies have suggested that the development of serious ototoxicity in children treated with cisplatin or, more rarely, carboplatin could be partly related to genetic risk factors affecting detoxification enzymes and membrane transporters of platinum derivatives. The objective of this study is therefore to identify genetic variants associated with the development of platinum ototoxicity in patients treated with cisplatin or carboplatin (minimum follow-up of 3 years) for one of the following diseases: neuroblastoma, hepatoblastoma, retinoblastoma, malignant germ cell tumour, osteosarcoma, high-risk or recurrent Wilms' tumour, non-parameningealrhabdomyosarcoma. A total of 180 patients, corresponding to 60 cases with grade 3 or 4 ototoxicity and 120 controls with no signs of ototoxicity (separate complete audiograms for each ear) will be included. A saliva sample will be used to obtain DNA for pharmacogenetic studies. The value of this study will be to define a population at high risk of developing ototoxicity in order to adapt treatment, or even develop preventive treatment of ototoxicity based on antioxidant medications

summary: The objective of this randomized trial is to study the effect of stress on performance and the effect of repetition of simulation sessions on performance and stress. This study is a randomized controlled trial including 48 participants who composed 12 multidisciplinary teams (MDTs). Each MDT was made up of 4 persons: an emergency physician, a resident, a nurse, and an ambulance driver who usually compose an emergency team of the French Emergency Medical Service (EMS). 6 MDTs underwent 9 simulation sessions over 1 year (Repetitive SIm Group). 6 MDTs underwent 3 simulation sessions over 1 year (Control Group). Evidence of the existence of stress was assessed in 3 ways: salivary cortisol, Holter parameters, and psychological stress questionnaires. The impact of stress on overall team performance, on technical procedure, and on teamwork, is evaluated by specific validated scales. Detection of post-traumatic stress (PTSD) is performed by self-evaluation on the 7th day and after one month. The perspective is to concomitantly evaluate technical and non-technical performance, and the impact of stress on both. This is the first randomized trial studying repetition of simulation sessions and its impact on both clinical performance and stress as explored by objective and subjective assessments. The investigators expect that stress decreases team performance and that repeated simulation increases team performance. The investigators expect no variation of stress parameters regardless of level of performance.

title: Neuroinflammation in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis - Mechanisms and Therapeutic Perspectives: a Translational Pilot Study Among ALS Patients

summary:
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is the most common motor neuron diseases. It is considered as a rare disease with a prevalence of about 8 per 100,000 persons. Initiating in mid-life by progressive paralysis, it evolves rapidly into a generalized muscle wasting that leads irrevocably to death within 2 or 5 years of clinical onset.

Since there is no cure for ALS, the management of the disease is supportive and palliative. Riluzole is the only drug that has been shown to extend survival by about three months. The identification of biomarkers sensitive to the progression of the disease might enhance the diagnostic and provide new drug targets.

Dysfunction of the immune system is a pathological hallmark of ALS. Increased levels of interferon gamma (IFNgamma) were found in the serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of ALS patients. However, the cell origin as well as the pathogenic influence of this peripheral source of IFNg is unknown. Thus, IFNgamma might have a role in the pathogenic process of ALS and might be a potential biomarker of the disease.

title: Antibiotic Treatment for 7 Days Versus 14 Days in Patients With Acute Male Urinary Tract Infection Due to Fluoroquinolones Susceptible Bacteria: a Multicentre, Non-inferiority, Double Blind, Randomized Placebo-controlled Trial

acronym: PROSTASHORT

summary: This study will investigate the treatment of urinary tract infection (UTI) in men. The investigators are looking to see if shorter duration of antibiotics (7 days) is not inferior to a longer duration of antibiotics (14 days). The investigators will also study whether longer treatment leads to an increase in antibiotic resistant bacteria in the gut microbiota or an increase in drug side effects.
