title: Exploration of the Reward System by Functional MRI in Parkinson's Disease Patients With and Without REM Sleep Behavior Disorder

acronym: MP-TCSP-IRMf

summary:
Up to 60% of Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients suffer from REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), a parasomnia. This disorder is thought to be related to a dysfunction of limbic system and brainstem.

Impulse control disorders (ICD) are found in about 14% of PD patients taking dopaminergic drugs. These disorders are thought to be related to a dysfunction of meso-cortico-limbic pathways which belong to the so-called "reward system".

A strong link was found between these two disorders and therefore the investigators believe that RBD is associated with impaired reward system.

The main objective of this study is to evaluate differences in brain activation between PD patients with and without RBD.

The investigators hypothesize that PD patients with RBD have a more severe dysfunction of the reward system (hypoactivation of the meso-cortico-limbic pathway) than patients without RBD, explaining their susceptibility to ICD when exposed to high doses of dopaminergic treatment.

title: Treatment of the Osgood Schlatter Disease by Immobilization ( Ankle Cruro Resin ) Versus Sporting Rest ( Reference Treatment ) : Randomized Controlled Study

acronym: OSGOOD

summary:
The disease Osgood-Schlatter is most commonly found in sports teenager growing up apophysose accounting for 28.4% of osteochondrosis by Breck. It relates to 62% of osteochondrosis knee and affects adolescent girls between 10 and 12 and boys between 12 and 15 It is usually considered a benign pathology that cures in the majority of cases. However, in 5-10% of cases there is persistent residual pain in adulthood.

The classic complication is the avulsion fracture of the tibial tuberosity in adolescents who continued his sports without restriction.

The possible consequences are numerous including the presence of a free bone fragment at the insertion of the tendon originally described by Osgood the establishment of a genu recurvatum, a high kneecap or patella alta and an enlarged tibial tuberosity (ATT) annoying sport.

The main two treatments are complete rest from sport activity or cast immobilization.

The main objective is to compare these two technics according to the proportion of full sporting recovering at 12 months

lead_sponsor: Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris

location_facility: Neuro onsology unit - Groupe Hospitalier Pitié-Salpêtrière

summary:
The investigators will look for the presence of the fusion gene in all patients operated on for glioma. This search will be limited to all gliomas that show no IDH1 mutation, the latter being sought in both routine and anomalies never co-existing.

The hypothesis is that the rate of progression-free survival in grade IV gliomas and III without IDH1 mutation, with the usual chemotherapy, only 15% at 6 months (ie, 85% of patients relapse before 6 months of treatment), must be with this new treatment 35% (primary endpoint).

The main objective is the evaluation of disease-free survival at 6 months.

title: Neuroinflammation, Serotonin, Impulsivity and Suicide

acronym: NISIS

summary:
Suicide is a major health problem that causes annually a million death worlwide. In the stress-vulnerability model, suicidal behavior (SB) results from the interaction between an individual's predisposition (personality, family history of SB…) and stressful conditions (early life adversity).

Studies show that suicide ideations could favour inflammation and that depression is associated with an elevated inflammation.

Recent evidences also suggest that inflammatory mediators play a critical role in SB.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the inflammatory markers rate on depressed patients with or without personal history of SB.

In the second part of the study, the relations between the rates of inflammatory markers and characteristics of SB, impulsivity, psychological pain, childhood abuse and gene expression of 5HT2B receptor will be investigated.

title: Inflammatory Response in Myocardial Infarction Evaluated by MRI and Biomarkers of Inflammation

acronym: RIFIFI

summary:
An intense inflammatory reaction is triggered by the ischemic injury during myocardial infarction. The inflammatory processes involved are complex and haven't been explored in detail in human patients. This inflammatory response can increase myocardial damage following reperfusion, leading to adverse remodeling and adverse events (heart failure, sudden cardiac death).

Cardiac MRI can assess the size of myocardial infarction and many other parameters associated with myocardial injury: edema, hemorrhage, micro-vascular obstruction.

(However the association between biomarkers of inflammation and these imaging parameters is not known).

There is very little data correlating imaging markers of myocardial injury to the biokinetics of inflammation biomarkers.

In this study, the aim is to assess the relationship between the kinetics of specific inflammatory biomarkers (interleukin-1beta, interleukin 6, interleukin 17, Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-alpha, C reactive protein (CRP), soluble toll-like receptor-2 (ST2), neutrophils) and imaging markers of injury measured by cardiac MRI at the acute phase in 20 acute mycardial infarction (AMI) patients.


title: MRI Investigations in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and High Potential (HP) Children for a Better Therapeutic Approach

acronym: HP

summary:
Impulsivity and/or hyperactivity in children has become one of the main clinical symptom for consultation, among the most frequent, in general or pediatric medicine. Among the different clinical forms of instability, ADHD appears to be an especially disabling condition for the development of the child, both in psychomotor, cognitive, emotional and relational aspects. Further, a significant link between ADHD children and some children with High Potential (HP) is observed. HP children show overall ahead cognitive developments compared to children with the same age. In these children, as well as in children with ADHD, an attention vulnerability, psychomotor deficits are noted, as well as emotional and relational deficits that significantly contrasted with some of their cognitive skills. Regarding the HP, the hypothesis is that children with significantly heterogeneous results (Complex) to the Wechsler IV scales are affected by this shift, and hence, by the difficulty of a differential diagnosis with ADHD, unlike those whose intelligence quotient (IQ) results that are more homogeneous (Laminar).

The goal of this work was to study a population of 80 children aged from 8 to 12 years (20 subjects per group) to evaluate the functional and structural brain development by:

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) acquisitions with cognitive stimulations, involving attention, working memory and semantic processing, and emotional stimulations,
fMRI acquisitions at rest (without activation),
diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging (DTI) acquisitions,
3D anatomic acquisitions. Identification of developmental differences in certain cortical brain areas (eg, prefrontal vs parietal), white matter fiber bundles or functional networks preferentially used by one or other of these groups, will help to better understand this disease, and to improve the differential diagnosis in order to implement a more appropriate and personalized management of the patients via new therapeutic strategies.

title: Obstetric and Proctology Support of Patients With Perineums Suits. Prospective Cohort

summary:
Perineal tear grade III and IV are relatively common (1-10% of deliveries depending on the series), and are a source of potentially serious complications, even long time after delivery (especially disorders of anal continence, psychological trauma). If a number of risk factors are well described, the support arrangements at the time of delivery and the characteristics of the review Proctological remote delivery and its relationship to the clinical status of patients is little known and rarely studied.

In maternity wards of the hospital Saint Joseph Paris and Cochin-Port Royal group, patients with a diagnosis of severe perineal tear was made are taken following load with common rules, both for the immediate repair for the remote monitoring. Patients of both sites are indeed encouraged to consult in proctology consultation in Saint Joseph 4-6 months of birth.

The same support on both sites allows to consider the creation of a relatively homogeneous cohort in terms of support and consider an important recruitment. Moreover, the geographical proximity of the inclusions sites (maternity) with proctology service is likely to limit the risk of lost sight of.

title: One-lung Ventilation During Internal Thoracic Artery Grafting in Cardiac Surgery

acronym: VUPPAM

summary: Coronary artery bypass grafting is a current cardiac surgery. Internal thoracic artery is usually taking to restore coronary revascularization, and its dissection can lead to accidental or voluntary pleural effusions. Respiratory complications are frequent, due to the drainage required. In this study, the investigators propose one-lung ventilation to facilitate artery grafting and surgical procedure. The investigators will include all adult patients with elective coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) by internal thoracic artery, in a prospective, controlled, randomized and monocentric study. The main objective is to demonstrate that one-lung ventilation using EZ-Blocker can reduce pleural effusion defined by presence of drainage and/or pneumothorax on X-ray chest in the ICU.

title: Q Fever and Auto-immunity

acronym: Q Fever

summary: The IHU Mediterranean infection is national reference centre for Q fever. Coxiella burnetii is the bacteria responsible of this infection. The bacterium Coxiella burnetii infection is associated with secretion by the body both many antibodies against the bacteria but also against certain cells of the body (autoantibodies). These autoantibodies may have no effect or be associated with specific symptoms. Anti-Phospholipid antibodies are especially prevalent in the Q fever. Apart from this infection, they are associated with thrombocytopenia, obstetric complications, thrombosis and heart valve damage. These conditions have also been described as complications during Q fever. In a retrospective preliminary work on Q fever, we have shown that the presence of high levels of IgG anti-cardiolipin was associated with the presence of valvular and the evolution to endocarditis. Such associations have a therapeutic involvement and must therefore be confirmed. Indeed, if these associations were confirmed, a trans-esophageal ultrasound could be systematically proposed to patients with valvular disease of trans-thoracique ultrasound but IgG anticardiolipin high levels. Other special attention could be given to patients with high autoantibodies.

title: CoHort of STEMI Patients

acronym: STEMI

summary:
Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of mortality in industrialized countries. ST elevated acute myocardial infarction is one of its most frequent and deadly manifestation. In the last 20 years, STEMI mortality has been reduced by 50% with the advent of timely reperfusion (primary percutaneous intervention) and significant progression in pharmacologic intervention.

However, death and heart failure incidence after STEMI remain elevated: up to 20% at one year.

Also, therapeutic management following international guidelines is standardized toward a "one-size fits all" therapeutic management.

In order to continue improving myocardial infarction outcomes, there is a need to better understand and individualize therapeutic targets such myocardial reperfusion injury, post reperfusion inflammation, adverse left ventricular (LV) remodeling ….

This knowledge will allow us to propose new therapeutic strategies and in the long run strive towards personalized medicine.

The aim objective of this cohort of STEMI patients is to identify new biological markers of injury and prognosis.

title: Efficacity of a Standardized Hypnotic Message on Pain Experienced During the Application of a Qutenza (Capsaicin) 8% Patch in Patients With Peripheral Neuropathic Pain

acronym: ENHYZA

summary: QUTENZA® is a skin patch with a high concentration of capsaicin (8%) which is the component responsible for spicy peppers. QUTENZA® is indicated for the treatment of peripheral neuropathic pain in non-diabetic adults either alone or in combination with other analgesics. Acute pain experienced during and after the procedure can be relieved by local cooling methods and oral analgesics but the pain remains intense. The hypothesis is that hypnosis via a standardized hypnotic message would increase the local tolerance of the treatment when applying the patch QUTENZA®. To date, there are no studies that can confirm or refute this hypothesis.

summary: For several decades, authors are interested in the existence and meaning of painful symptoms in a population of psychiatric inpatients. But, to date, studies specifically focused on the impact of pain in patient populations in psychiatric hospitals are few. More recently, a review of the literature highlights the difficulties of evaluation of pain in populations of psychiatric patients but also the complex interrelationships between painful symptoms and psychiatric diseases. The first national survey conducted among 172 health which evaluate pain and its management in the field of psychiatry concluded on the need to develop research in this area.


title: Assessment of Cystatin C as a Tubular and Glomerular Marker of Nephrotoxicity in Pediatric Oncology

summary: Cisplatin and ifosfamide are commonly used drugs in chemotherapy. They are known to involve renal toxic threats in children given their immature kidney. This toxicity is increased especially after nephrectomy and/or concomitant radiotherapy. In pediatric oncology, the available evaluation methods of the renal function could be very restrictive to perform on children. In this study, the investigators intend to test the use of the cystatin C as an effective and reliable biological marker of renal toxicity in children treated with cisplatin and / or ifosfamide.

title: Evaluation of Serum Procalcitonin Rate in Patients With Stage IV Non-small Cell Lung

acronym: KBPCT

summary: Treatment of a stage IV NSCLC is based on chemotherapy and requires before each session to check clinically, biologically and radiologically absence of infection. This biological evaluation is based on the CRP rate. Lots of infections may occur in this situation and could reduce by three the patient's life duration. However it is very important to make as early as possible a correct diagnosis of infection. CRP rate is classically higher for those patients even without any infection. In comparison with CRP, Procalcitonin (PCT) is well-known for its better sensibility and specificity for the infection diagnosis but has never been study in case of active cancer. The aim of this study is to evaluate the Procalcitonin basal rate for those patients suffering from NSCLC. It could be a simple and reliable method to use. So the investigators decided to include each new patient with NSCLC stage IV coming for his first-line chemotherapy without any infection sign, and to realize a Procalcitonin dosage before the start of the treatment. This sample will be analyzed at the chemical laboratory and the result will not be communicated to the patient physician. A new clinical evaluation will be realized either at the hospital or by phone at day 7 to search any sign of infection. In absence of infection, patient will be reevaluated at day 14, 21 and 30. In case of infection, a new Procalcitonin (and CRP) dosage will be performed.

title: Role of Fcgamma Receptors in Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP)

acronym: PTI Fc

summary:
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune disease characterized by a peripheral destruction of platelets responsible for bleedings.

Monocytes/macrophages play a double role by phagocyting platelets recognized by autoantibodies and by maintaining the autoimmune response via their antigen-presenting cell functions.

Fcgamma receptors (FcγR), that are represented by activating receptors (FcγRI, FcγRIIa, FcγRIII) and an inhibiting one (FcγRIIb), are involved in the regulation of macrophages and have been reported to be dysregulated in autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematous.

The aim of this study is to compare the expression of FcγR in patients with ITP on circulating monocytes and on splenic macrophages.

summary:
Raltitrexed is a potent thymidylate synthase (TS) inhibitor. Conversely to 5-fluorouracil (5FU), raltitrexed can be administered safely in patients with cardiovascular disease, as well as in patients with dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficit. Since raltitrexed is administered in 15-minutes infusion, complications related to continuous infusion can be avoided, and it becomes a potential good candidate for locoregional treatments as hepatic intra-arterial or intra-peritoneal infusion. Despite these potential benefits over 5FU, clinical trials failed in their temptation to replace the 5FU in colorectal cancer patients, mainly due to raltitrexed toxicity at 3mg/m2 every 3 weeks. Oxaliplatin has demonstrated a synergic effect when combined with TS inhibitors, and its association with raltitrexed was evaluated at 130mg/m2 of oxaliplatin and 3mg/m2 of raltitrexed, every 3 weeks. Actually, one of the first-line standard regimens in metastatic colorectal cancer patients is the biweekly FOLFOX (85mg/m2 of oxaliplatin, and infusional 5FU) plus bevacizumab regimen, since a significant progression-free survival (PFS) benefit was observed over FOLFOX plus placebo. Biweekly administration of raltitrexed at 2mg/m2 demonstrated a favorable toxicity profile even in patients aged >65 years. Besides, the association of raltitrexed, oxaliplatin and bevacizumab seems safe.

Then, the investigators decided to perform a randomized pharmacokinetic comparative study between biweekly TOMOX (raltitrexed 2 mg/m2 and oxaliplatin 85mg/m2) and triweekly TOMOX (raltitrexed 3 mg/m2 and oxaliplatin 130mg/m2) regimens in metastatic colorectal cancer patients, in a "ping-pong" crossover strategy to reduce the intra-individual variability. Bevacizumab was allowed at the dose of 5mg/kg or 7.5mg/kg, in biweekly and triweekly schedules, respectively. The secondary end-points were, objective response rate evaluated by RECIST 1.1 criteria, PFS, overall survival (OS), toxicity, and the comparison of toxicity between two arms for the first 2 cycles.

summary:
Respiratory weaning failure worsens prognostic of patients following on-pump cardiac surgery. There are increasing evidences that pulmonary, diaphragmatic or cardiologic echographies are useful in order to improve this critical medical status.

Based both on a previous study conducted in the critical care unit of Purpan and on literature we hypothesize that a combined thoracic echography score could be of interest. We make the hypothesis that the use of a score based on thoracic combined echography (ETC = cardiac, pulmonary and diaphragmatic) allows to predict the failure of respiratory weaning in cardiac surgery and allows to improve the characterization of the causes of this failure

On average, two postoperative consultations are carried out between 3 and 5 months and between 12 and 18 months. Beyond 18 months, some children may benefit from long-term monitoring at this center, but most children are followed by their neurologist .

Therefore, the center has no rigorous and systematic collection of standardized data on the outcome of these patients.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the epilepsy surgery in children with a monitoring of 3 years.

title: The Sleepless Brain: Neuroimaging Support for a Differential Diagnosis of Insomnia

acronym: SOMNET

summary:
One-tenth of the population suffers from insomnia, increasing their risk on other health problems such as depression. Self-reported sleep quality only was historically leading for insomnia diagnosis, but more recently a state of 24-hour hyperarousal has been associated with insomnia, either physiological (increased heart rate, higher frequency EEG) or predominant cognitive-emotional hyperarousal (worry, rumination, repetitive thoughts). Strong evidence shows that those suffering from insomnia with physiological hyperarousal are at higher risk of short and long term severe health problems such as inflammation and hypertension than the group without physiological hyperarousal. The neurophysiological basis of these insomnia phenotypes has however barely been investigated, although its results can have major consequences for how this limiting condition will be treated.

To support the development of a differential diagnosis of insomnia, structural and functional brain connectivity in insomnia patients with different levels of hyperarousal will be investigated and related to sleep variables. Investigators will compare the insomnia group to a normal sleeping control group. Investigators expect that the emotion processing circuit (amygdala-ventromedial prefrontal cortex) is a) more affected in insomniacs compared to normal sleeping controls and b) the directionality of this effect to depend on the level and type of hyperarousal in insomniacs. Further, investigators expect c) amygdala activity to be positive correlated with physiological hyperarousal level and d) prefrontal activity to be positively correlated with cognitive-emotional hyperarousal level. Investigators expect a higher physiological hyperarousal level to be reflected in affected afferent pathways of the amygdala towards the ventromedial prefrontal cortex and investigators expect higher cognitive-emotional hyperarousal to be related to affected efferent pathways from the ventromedial prefrontal cortex to the amygdala. Investigators expect sleep quality to play a mediating role in both types of hyperarousal and their brain activation patterns in insomnia patients and normal sleeping controls.

These data can lead to the definition of new insomnia phenotypes and to new customized and effective insomnia treatment, focused not only on improving sleep but also on changing dysfunctional hyperarousal levels that currently put insomniacs at risk of numerous severe health problems.

title: Incidence and Risk Factor of Adverse Drug Events Detected at Emergency Department Visit

acronym: ADEsED

summary:
Emergency departments (EDs) are a crucial element of the health care systems at interface between hospital and communities. The goals of the ED are to make an initial diagnosis and deliver urgent and critical care 24 hour per day and 365 days a year. Also, many Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) are not identified by emergency physicians. ADEs are injuries resulting from a drug related medical intervention. Their detection, documentation and reporting are essential for adequate medical care and knowledge of risk/benefit profiles of medication throughout their lifecycle. However, a number of studies indicate that in clinical practice the under-reporting of ADEs is a pervasive and widespread problem. The main reasons for under-reporting were difficulty in determining the cause of the ADE, lack of time, poor integration of ADE-reporting systems and uncertainty about reporting procedures. Successful treatment of ADEs depends on the ability of physicians to attribute ADEs to a medication. Some studies have reported that pharmacists but also student pharmacists were one of the best health care providers to establish medication history. Consequently, the aims of our study were to assess prevalence and characteristics of ADEs identified in an emergency department and to identify factors associated with ADEs in ED patients.

This prospective observational study is conducted at the ED of a tertiary care hospital (University hospital of Montpellier). This department supports 80 000 patients every years. Patient were not included if they were less than 18 years old, present acute psychological disturbance or they did not agree to participate at this study.

For each patient included, a pharmaceutical team conducted: medication reconciliation process to establish medication history and a structured interviews to determine self-reported adherence and self-medication. ADEs were attributed to a medication by the treating senior emergency physician: directly during patient consultation or after being alerted by the pharmaceutical team.

acronym: ETHEPAT

summary:
The Exploration Center for Prevention and Treatment of Atherosclerosis (CEPTA, Bordeaux Hospital University) showed that following myocardial infarct (MI) or ischemic stroke (TIA or stroke), the global management (medical and educational) of patients led to very long-term satisfactory results in terms of reduction of cardiovascular (CV) risk and morbidity and mortality. However, the specific effect of therapeutic education beyond the conventional treatment has never been an adequate assessment. The following at 1 year of this study will show the evolution of chronic long-term CV disease in patients who received therapeutic education, and to explain the mechanisms. The challenge of this project is to demonstrate for the first time the superiority of therapeutic education and conventional care and propose a modeling program for national diffusion.

Patients who experienced a CV event (MI, stroke) will be randomized into 2 groups of 165 patients each: 1) receiving conventional treatment alone; 2) receiving conventional treatment + CEPTA program. The study was built for a 1-year follow-up period, to demonstrate the impact of therapeutic education on evolution of risk factors, physical, psychological and social health of patients. The main benefit of this study for the patient is the implementation of an optimized treatment and long-term monitoring by a cardiology referral center.

summary: The purpose of this retrospective work is to study the consequences of obstetrical brachial plexus paralysis on the rotator muscles of the shoulder. First of all, the investigators want to study the reproducibility of the isometric contraction forces of the rotator muscles of the shoulder thanks to an isokinetic dynamometer. The investigatorsthen want to compare the measurements obtained from the paralyzed side compared to the healthy side. The preoperative MRI performed will be studied in search of amyotrophy. These data will be compared with those of the isokinetic assessment to identify children requiring muscle transfer of reinforcement of the external rotator muscles.


title: Concomitant High-resolution Recording of Haemodynamic and Electrical Activities of Children With Typical or Atypical Absence Seizures: Near-infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) Coupled to Electroencephalography (EEG)

acronym: Absence

summary:
This study, conducted in children with typical or atypical "absence" epilepsy, will consist of noninvasive recording of the metabolic activity of the brain concomitantly with electroencephalographic recording during seizures without the need for any additional examination. This examination will be performed by combining near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) optical imaging and Electroencephalography (EEG) in a simultaneous High-Resolution (HR) recording.

Surface electroencephalography (EEG) is a valuable tool to assess neuronal dysfunction from a functional point of view and is used in the routine follow-up of epileptic children. Optical imaging is a recent and promising medical imaging technique, which uses near-infrared light. This rapid, noninvasive and harmless quantitative technique can be easily used at the child's bedside or in the ward and provides metabolic information on brain functioning.

title: Monocentric Study and Prognostic of Treatments Endodontics of Teeth With Periapical Pathology Realized CSERD (Nantes University Hospital)

summary:
Endodontic therapy is to achieve the eviction of the inflamed or infected pulp and fill the canal opening with a hermetic sealing material.

The analysis of the literature on intracanal therapeutic shows great variability of the results obtained, the reported success rate is 53 to 95%.

This is explained by the difficulty of the surgical procedure, but also by the multiplicity of possible factors of failure, related practitioner, canal anatomy, the operating procedures, the preparation techniques and root canal filling. This success rate is variable depending on the presence or absence of periapical pathology before treatment: more than 85% for teeth treated without initial periapical pathology against only 62% for teeth with pathology before treatment. Furthermore, the literature review revealed two contradictory assumptions about the dominant factor failure in endodontics: the failure of the sealing canal system (bad level shutter) against the failure of the endovascular disinfection.

Main hypothesis of the research objectives:

The probability of success in a year endodontic treatments carried out according to the recommendations and the operating standards on teeth with periapical pathology is approximately 60%.

The primary prognostic factors would be the existence of intracanal obstacles (stop calcification ...) responsible for a sub-obturation of the canal, factors inherent to the tooth (situation ductal anatomy and complexity), the operating techniques used, the practitioner ( skill level), the quality of the restoration.

summary: Infectious keratitis are favored by the circumstances causing the small trauma of the corneal epithelium, corneal surgery, corneal dryness under health system such as Sjögren's syndrome rheumatoid arthritis, or much more frequently wearing contact lenses. If the majority of infectious keratitis are favourable, some lead to serious injury of the cornea, or even corneal perforation which result an endophthalmitis. This unfavourable evolution may lead to blindness due to corneal damage, the endo-ocular lesions or enucleation of the eyeball. This negative evolution is encountered while the infectious keratitis due to tedious germs of difficult diagnosis such as nontuberculous Mycobacterial, fungal infections, fungal keratitis, amoebic keratitis, and certain viral keratitis. The microbiological diagnosis of routine is based on the systematic search for pathogens tedious from invasive sampling of cornea by vaccinostyle. We set up a new non-invasive corneal swab diagnostic method.

title: Microparticles as a Biomarker of Incident Cardiovascular Risk in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea

acronym: BioSAS

summary:
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is independently associated with cardiovascular diseases, including myocardial infarction and stroke. OSA may promote atherosclerosis risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia and may have direct proatherogenic effects on the vascular wall. A growing number of studies have recently focused on the role of microparticles (MPs) in the atherogenic process. Case-control studies have shown that platelet-, endothelial- and leukocyte-derived MP levels are increased in OSA and that leukocyte-derived MP are released during the night in OSA. Furthermore, experimental evidence shows that MPs from OSA patients induce endothelial dysfunction.

The objective of this prospective study is to evaluate the impact of increased levels of leukocyte derived MPs on the cardiovascular outcomes in patients with prevalent cardiovascular diseases investigated for OSA.

acronym: ARAM

summary: Refractory ascites is an indication for liver transplantation, and includes ascites that is resistant to, or intractable by diuretic therapy (International Ascites Club). This definition is partly subjective; it can be established only a posteriori, following diuretic therapy administration to all patients, including those in whom untoward effects are prominent; and requires prolonged follow-up. An early diagnosis of refractory ascites would avoid giving diuretic therapy to patients in whom it will fail and identify rapidly candidates to liver transplantation. Such diagnosis could be done with a pharmacokinetic (PK) study of radiolabeled albumin between the peritoneal cavity and serum.

title: Impact of Preoperative Single Corticosteroid Flash on Morbidity After Colorectal Resection: Monocentric Prospective Pilot Study

acronym: CORTICOLON

summary: Complications due to infection after colorectal surgery are frequent, affecting up to 25% of patients. Infection increases mortality, lengthens hospital stays, increases costs and decreases long term survival for cancer patients. Perioperative inflammation leads to hypercatabolism, denutrition and immunosuppression, all of which are associated to postoperative infection. Data from various sources suggests that modulating perioperative inflammatory response through the injection of corticosteroids would benefit the patient by reducing the number of postoperative complications after major surgery. Pre- or perioperative intravenous administration of a single corticosteroid flash is a means of modulating systemic inflammation that has been suggested for numerous types of surgeries, including pancreatic surgery. The objective of this study is to assess whether a preoperative single corticosteroid flash (methylprednisolone: 20 mg/kg IV at anesthetic induction) reduces the risk of serious complications after elective colorectal surgery.

title: Screening and Characterization of Hearing Disorders in Diabetic Persons.

acronym: DeCaTAuDiab

summary: Diabetes is now the most common chronic disease, affecting nearly 6% of the population in Western populations. Diabetic neuropathy is a priori the most common and the most common specific complications of diabetes. It can of course touch the lower limbs, the vegetative nervous system as well as the cranial nerves. However, the association between hearing impairment and diabetes has always been controversial on the basis of conflicting literature data. Are auditory disorders an underestimated complication of diabetes? A meta-analysis made in 2013, examined the scientific literature between 1950 and 2011 and of the 3158 citations, only 13 articles were selected. This study found that hearing impairment in diabetic patients was 2.1 times more prevalent than in non-diabetic matched subjects. In addition, the age / aging factor is associated with the prevalence of hearing loss and diabetes. However, it also appears that the link between diabetes and hearing impairment is more pronounced among young people than older people. In order to document the influence of diabetic pathology on hearing, Investigator have set up a search audiological exploration platform within the department of Endocrinology-Diabetology of Clermont-Ferrand University Hospital. It will be proposed a hearing screening (duration 30 minutes) and a questionnaire to diabetic patients of the service. In the context of a positive screening, that is to say that one of the tests carried out reveals the presence of a hearing disorder, an in-depth assessment of the hearing will be carried out to better characterize the origin of the auditory disturbance (duration 60-90 minutes). These different tests are based on the listening of sounds requiring or not the participation of patient. Thus, the results of the various tests will make it possible to classify the impairment of hearing in (1) peripheral impairment (dysfunction of certain cells of your ear involved in the amplification of sounds), and / or (2) in neural damage (dysfunction of your auditory nerve).

title: Validation of an Allergic Rhinitis Control Test in Teenagers

acronym: ARCTado

summary:
Allergic rhinitis is a common condition that affects adults as well as children and adolescents, often with impaired quality of life. Patients often report a poor level of satisfaction with the effectiveness of their treatment and are always looking for more drug combinations to improve their symptom. Several tools exist for assessing control of allergic rhinitis, but none has been validated in adolescents or in children. A study conducted in 2008, resulted in the validation of a self-administered control test of allergic rhinitsis (ARCT) in patients from 12 years of age. However, this study included only 67 adolescents aged 12 to 17 years old and lacked power.

In this new study,the investigators propose, following exactly the same procedure as the pilot study of 2008, to confirme the validation of unmodified Adult questionnaire in adolescents 12 to 17 years inclusive.

title: Cardiopulmonary Effects of Bronchoalveolar Wash on Patients With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

acronym: FLOOD

summary: The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a clinical syndrome characterized by an inflammatory pulmonary edema, severe hypoxia and endothelial and epithelial diffuse aggression. A European study estimated that this disease represents 7% of admissions to intensive care. Despite progress on the modalities of mechanical ventilation, mortality is always between 25 and 55%. The definition of this syndrome was recently amended by individualizing three sub groups based on the importance of hypoxemia (mild, moderate and severe). Achieving a bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) by bronchoscopy remains a gold standard in the initial research of pulmonary infectious cause or secondarily face the suspicion of ventilator-associated pneumonia. Cardio pulmonary consequences of this act are not well known in patients with ARDS. The first studies on the consequences of a bronchoscopy on oxygenation of a patient breathing spontaneously have 40 years. More recent work showed a simple bronchoscopy could in the mechanically ventilated patient cause an average decrease of 26% from the base of PaO2, 10% of the mean arterial pressure (MAP) and a significant increase in cardiac output. The existence of ARDS was an independent risk factor associated with hypoxemia. A study by published in Crit Care Med in 1990 can serve as a reference in ventilated patients benefiting from BAL by bronchoscopy: in a subgroup of 26 patients, 23% of patients required an increase in the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) post procedure. A study compared changes in PaO2/FiO2 after BAL with and without endoscopy among patients without (n = 23) or with pneumonia (n = 11): the decrease in PaO2/FiO2 was significant only in the "pneumonia" group. In a study of 30 patients ventilated but not hypoxic , PaO2 was still reduced by 20% 2 hours after the completion of a BAL in 40% of patients. A retrospective series of 99 ventilated patients but not hypoxic, shows that the BAL was well tolerated in accordance with a pre oxygenation procedure 15 min and by gradually decreasing the FiO 2 after the end of the procedure. BAL also appears well tolerated in a study of 12 patients ventilated under sedation and muscle relaxation, in shock and in need of positive expiratory pressure (PEEP) of at least 10 cm H2O but the authors show a decrease in PaO2 that extends well beyond the end of the intervention. Their conclusion is going to offer less invasive diagnostic techniques for patients with PaO2 less than 60 mm. No study has targeted the respiratory and hemodynamic consequences of this technique depending on the intensity of ARDS (mild, moderate or severe).

title: Lyon BJI Cohort Study

summary:
The prospective Cohort includes all patients with bone or joint infection (BJI), with or without implant. The aim of this Cohort is to improve the knowledges about the treatment failure and the occurrence of serious adverse events. Various data of patients included are collected and will be analysed.

Patients with a bone or joint infection are treated at the department of infectious diseases, at Infectious disease department of Hospices Civils de Lyon. They have regularly a consultation with a physician: 2-3 weeks after surgery, 6 weeks after surgery, 3 months after surgery, 6 months after surgery, 12 months after surgery and 24 months after surgery. It allows to the physician to follow the evolution of the patient under treatment and after discontinuation of the treatment.

Several data are collected during the follow-up concerning: demographics data, treatment including the use of off-label antibiotics for the treatment of BJI, adverse events, microbiology, surgeries, healing or relapse, date of symptoms, ASA score, implant or not. If there is an implant, the date of implantation and the number of the prosthesis infected are collected.

This cohort allows to improve knowledge concerning the treatment failure and the occurrence of adverse events.

title: Evaluation of a Personalized Physical Activity Coaching Program in Parkinson's Disease

acronym: APA-PARK

summary:
There is growing interest for physical activity in Parkinson's disease in order to improve mobility and function of these patients. It seems from previous studies that difficulty, intensity and specificity of physical exercises are important parameters conditioning the effect of physical activity on cerebral plasticity and clinical improvement.

Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the benefits of a Personalized Physical Activity coaching program, including scheduled and frequent follow up associated with progressive readaptation of exercise intensity depending on individual performances (during 3 months), versus free practice of physical activity in Parkinson's disease.


title: PTMDP (Post-translational Modification Derived Products) as Markers of Frailty in Elderly Subjects

acronym: MAFRA

summary:
Epidemiological data from Europe have shown that around 30% of subjects aged over 65 years of age are pre-frail, and 15% are frail. Recent research has demonstrated that identifying frailty and implementing preventive measures can help to slow cognitive decline. Screening and treating frailty seem to be a good start towards preventing dependency.

On the premise that this frailty is the result of more pronounced tissue alterations in certain elderly subjects, assessment of post-translational modification derived products (PTMDP) represents an innovative evaluation method. These include advanced glycation end-products (AGE), and carbamylation-derived products (homocitrulline). Indeed, the intensity of these modifications increases with ageing, and assessing the products resulting from these alterations could show the existence of differences according to frailty status. This would make it possible to adapt treatment accordingly in elderly subjects.

title: Etiology of Endocarditis in Negative Blood Cultures

acronym: ENDOC

summary:
Infective endocarditis remains a serious disease that requires fast and specialized support in 2012. However, 24% of endocarditis unanswered etiology. The systematic use of new policy diagnosis, including (i) a systematic use of specific PCR techniques and (ii) the search for markers of inflammatory and tumoral diseases, should increase the number of positive etiological diagnosis of culture-negative samples.

Secondly, because of the seriousness of the disease, the investigators were led to develop a new score: score for admission. This score, realized in less than 4 hours from the admission of the suspected patient with endocarditis, should allow for immediate probabilistic antibiotic treatment after completion of the diagnostic kit. The modified Duke score give its results in 4 to 7 days. With the score of admission thus diagnostic processes are accelerated and, where appropriate, empirical antibiotic therapy started.

Primary: Evaluate the effectiveness of the new diagnostic strategy on etiological identification of endocarditis.

Secondary: Validate the "admission" score compared to the modified Duke score.

summary:
Telemedicine-based care provides remote health and social care to maintain people's autonomy and increase their quality of life. The rapidly aging population has come with a significant increase in the prevalence of chronic diseases and their effects, and thus the need for increased care and welfare.

This solutions give a new opportunity for diagnosis, treatment, education, and rehabilitation, and make it possible to monitor patients with a number of chronic diseases. It also reduces socioeconomic disparity with regard to access to care and gives equal chances to patients from urban and rural areas.

This a randomized trial of telemedicine versus usual care alone to reduce hospitalization and emergency hospital admissions for Nursing Home Residents .

After an initial assessment , each participant is monitored by teleconsultation on six occasions over 12 months. Patients with usual care have an initial and a 12 months assessments.


title: InteresT And Mechanisms of Percutaneous Posterior tIbial Nerve Stimulation to Prevent pOstoperative Ileus in ColorectAl Surgery: A Preliminary Study

acronym: pre-TAPIOCA

summary:
Postoperative ileus (POI) causes patient's discomfort and leads to an increase of cost of management after colorectal surgery because of an increase of the morbidity rate or of the rate of early rehospitalization after discharge.

Enhanced recovery programs allowed a reduction of its rate but 20 to 30% of patients will experiment POI.

A new approach during preoperative era, using mastication or preoperative physical activity, has been proposed to improve postoperative course. This leads to a vagal activation (action especially on upper GI).

Sacral stimulation using percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) has an effect on lower GI.

The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and the feasibility of PTNS during perioperative course, to prevent POI with respect with placebo.


title: Thyroid Dysfunction and Obstetric Complications

acronym: TDOC

summary:
Obstetric complications are common and can be responsible for maternal and foetal morbidity and mortality. Thyroid dysfunction has been identified as a possible cause of obstetric complications.

Many studies have been conducted to estimate the prevalence and define the nature of obstetric complications observed in patients with thyroid dysfunction. However, women with obstetric complications are not systematically screened for thyroid dysfunction and no published study has evaluated the prevalence of thyroid dysfunction in women with an obstetric complication. As no consensus has been reached concerning systematic screening for thyroid dysfunction in pregnant women, the identification of new high-risk populations could possibly result in a change of clinical practice.

title: Study of Electrophysiological Effects of NACOS and AVK on the Pulmonary Veins and the Left Atrium of Patients Referred for Paroxysmal AF Catheter Ablation

acronym: NACO-VP

summary:
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmias with a constantly growing prevalence AF. The purpose of paroxysmal AF processing is to control outbreaks from these pulmonary veins, medicated way (antiarrhythmic) or interventional. Ablation (radiofrequency or cryotherapy) has become in this context recognized and effective treatment of AF. In addition, antithrombotic treatments in this context is a major treatments for the prevention of stroke (stroke). They are most often associated with antiarrhythmic treatment to prevent recurrence of AF or to slow it during a relapse.

Recent experimental studies have highlighted the direct electrophysiological properties of dabigatran and rivaroxaban in the pulmonary veins and the left atrium. Dabigatran demonstrated in this study that it induced a prolongation of potential action in the pulmonary veins and the left atrium and it decreased the incidence of FA-induced by stimulation. Conversely, rivaroxaban induces shortening of the action potential in the left atrium (untested properties in the pulmonary veins). To our knowledge, apixaban and warfarin have not been studied in this context.

It is therefore possible that some of the new oral anticoagulants (NACOS) or some AVK (fluindione and warfarin), have direct electrophysiological effects in the pulmonary veins and on the left atrium and could influence AF recurrences (with effect " antiarrhythmic-like "or rather a pro-arrhythmic effect) after ablation.A retrospective analysis conducted at the University Hospital of Caen on very low numbers suggest that patients on dabigatran would have less pulmonary veins connected in early ablation procedure that patients on warfarin or rivaroxaban. Despite the limitations inherent in this analysis (very low numbers, retrospective analysis, unique setting and having studied his own limits), these results are consistent with the fundamental studies, and thus encourage us to pursue our hypothesis to obtain more statistical power and reliability in our measurements and results.

We therefore propose the study of the electrophysiological effects of NACOS (apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban) and warfarin (warfarin and fluindione) on the pulmonary veins and the left atrium of patients referred for ablation of paroxysmal AF (radiofrequency or cryotherapy ) the CHU of Caen and Tours and clinic Saint Martin Caen.

title: ALDOsterone for Prediction of Post-Operative Atrial Fibrillation

acronym: ALDO-POAF

summary:
Post-operative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a major and frequent complication occurring after cardiac surgery, contributing to prolonged intensive care and hospital stays and is associated with several cardiovascular complications. The exact mechanisms and signaling pathways involved in the development of POAF seem to be multifactorial and remain to date incompletely understood. β-blockers and amiodarone are the first line preventive drugs but are partially effective and near 30% of POAF resist to these strategies. In this context, there is some evidence indicating that renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and Galectin-3 (Gal-3) share signaling pathways in the development of cardiac fibrosis and therefore could be very useful predictive biomarkers of POAF and potentially interesting therapeutic target to prevent POAF occurrence.

The investigators hypothesis is that preoperative plasma aldosterone levels and galectin-3 (Gal-3) expression (in plasma, right atrial appendage or epicardial fat) could be predictive of POAF in patients undergoing elective CABG surgery with preserved LVEF.

location_facility: Hématologie et thérapie cellulaire, Hôpital Saint Antoine

summary:
Patients receiving radiation therapy are still at risk for side effects due to off-target radiation damage of normal tissues The number of cancer patients is expected to increase from 14.1 million around the world in 2012 to 19.3 million in 2025. Up to ten percent will develop late severe gastrointestinal complications (i.e. Pelvic Radiation Disease - PRD). Symptoms are proctopathy (5-20%) and radiation-induced cystitis (3,5%) that affect quality of life. The treatment of PRD is limited to managing the symptoms; new alternatives should be proposed.

Clinical trials using MSCs to treat hemorrhagic cystitis, proctopathy have demonstrated the feasibility to used MSCs in these pathologies :

MSCs successfully repair hemorrhagic cystitis, and perforated colon in patients with hemorrhagic cystitis, perforated colon and peritonitis.
Six clinical trials are currently ongoing for proctopathy, 3 are phase III. Results suggest an inhibition of chronic inflammation and fistulization and interruption of hemorrhagic syndromes.
Clinical trials to evaluate the efficacy of MSCs to treat hemorrhagic cystitis is in progress.
A decrease in pain after the injection of MSCs was observed in patients treated by radiotherapy for breast cancer, radiation burns, and radiotherapy over-dosage.
Four patients, were treated with MSCs after receiving overdose pelvic irradiation for prostate cancer. A decrease in pain (EN score), bleeding and diarrhea was observed.

MSCs will represent a promising alternative strategy in the treatment of severe enteritis, rectitis and cystitis after radiotherapy, and may avoid surgical treatment and may diminish the adverse effect of PRD in terms of chronicity, morbidity, mortality and health costs.


title: Postoperative Comput Tomography as a Predictor of Postoperative Complications After Pancreatic Surgery

summary: Pancreatectomy represents the classic approach for resectable lesions of the pancreas, duodenum and periampullary region. Due to the technical skills required, the complex anatomy and the extreme fragility of the pancreatic parenchyma, pancreatic resection is still considered to be at risk of postoperative complication mainly due to pancreatic juice leaks. Anastomotic leaks are the major cause of morbidity and in-hospital mortality due to the activation of pancreatic enzymes and the following infectious and hemorrhagic complications. Severe complications negatively affect postoperative outcomes, long-term survival, quality of life, and costs. Operative mortality traditionally has been defined as the rate within 30 days or during the initial hospitalization. But in pancreatic surgery mortality rates within 90 days after pancreatic resection are double those at 30 days. In the present study, the investigators sought to evaluate the usefulness of postoperative CT-scan on the seventh postoperative day before discharging the patients to detect undiagnosed postoperative complication.


title: In Vivo Dynamic Evaluation of Ankle Joint and Muscle Mechanics in Children With Spastic Equinus Deformity Due to Cerebral Palsy: Implications for Recurrent Equinus.

acronym: EQUINUS

summary: This research will lead to the first evaluation of intrinsic and dynamic joint and muscle mechanics of equinus in cerebral palsy. It would provide a direct cause and effect relationship between equinus and bone deformity. Mechanical insights to the pathophysiology of the targeted muscles will lead to better understanding and, thus, to a better medical and surgical management of equinus deformity. Secondary aim will provide an important insight whether key gait parameters can be exclusively relied upon for surgical treatment planning and evaluation. In a medium-term perspective, depending upon the results of this study, dynamic MRI of the ankle joint may serve as a guiding tool for fixed equinus surgery in case of cerebral palsy.

title: Preferences and Representations Concerning High-throughput Sequencing Technologies in Medical Genetics. The Case of Development Anomalies.

summary:
After the use of DNA chips for diagnostic purposes, high-throughput sequencing (HTS) is transforming the field of developmental diseases, from fundamental research to care. Nonetheless, before HTS can be transferred to everyday clinical practice, in particular for expert diagnosis using exome HTS, it is necessary to anticipate the nature of the information to be given to patients and to parents in order to obtain consent for exome HTS.

The objective in terms of public health is to allow patients with rare diseases to benefit from innovative technologies in optimal conditions of information and accompaniment.

the objectives of this project are to

evaluate the preferences of families of patients with development disorders as regard to suspicious and incidental findings from HTS before its introduction for diagnostic purpose,
and then, following the exome analyses carried out for diagnostic purposes, describe, analyse and understand the experience, expectations and reactions of families and geneticists concerning the diagnostic trajectory in general and at the time the results of the HTS were announced in particular A methodology that associated quantitative and qualitative approaches was chosen so as to combine the advantages and overcome the shortcomings of each: a quantitative study to investigate a large number of patients, which would ensure a certain representativeness of the population and allow sub-groups analyses to study the upstream phase concerning indications for high-throughput sequencing; and a qualitative study, which though it allows only a small number of patients to be investigated, makes it possible to describe, analyze and understand in depth the complex downstream phenomena of high-throughput sequencing results

title: Small and Steatotic Hepatocellular Carcinoma : a Distinctive Radiological Variant With Improved Outcome After Percutenous Ablation

summary:
Percutaneous thermoablation in an effective local curative treatment in patients with cirrhosis and HCC smaller than 3 cm in diameter (BCLC 0-A).

Around 30% of HCC patients referred for percutaneous ablation were regarded as non-feasible because of a difficult-at risk location or undetectable nodules.

We used percutaneous thermoablation to treat HCC on high risk locations (subcapsular or liver dome) with or without lipiodol marked (for undetectable HCC).

No clinical study has been published so far to compare percutaneous thermoablation of HCC on liver dome CT guided with artificial pneumothorax and lipiodol marked, and percutaneous thermoablation of HCC guided by ultrasonography (non subcapsular, distent form diaphragm).

This retrospective study evaluate the overall survival, the local tumor progression or distant liver progression after percutaneous ablation for HCC and determine prognostic factors.

summary: The proposed trial will evaluate the effect of aspirin 300 mg/d and 100 mg/d during 4 years vs placebo, in a 4 groups randomised parallel design in Lynch syndrome patients: patients with proven carriers of pathological mutations in mismatch repairs genes and patients with personal and family history characterizing Lynch syndrome according to modified Amsterdam criteria without proven mutation, aged more than 18 years with signed informed consent. The main hypothesis to be tested is that aspirin could decrease colorectal adenoma recurrence evaluated during high quality follow-up by colonic chromo-endoscopy in Lynch syndrome patients. The trial will also explore: (i) colorectal neoplasia recurrence according to different germline alteration in mismatch repair genes, (ii) observance to chemoprevention in Lynch syndrome patients, (iii) the burden of adverse events attributable to aspirin in Lynch syndrome patients, (iv) the dose-effect of aspirin on adenomatous polyp burden. All pathological samples will be reviewed using a centralized procedure. The INCA regional network organization and the HNPCC patient organization will allow the recruitment and the follow-up of a large number of patients with well characterised Lynch syndrome.
