title: Evaluation of the Diagnostic Contributions of Nerve Ultrasound in Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy Associating Systemic Diseases

acronym: CIDP echo-nerf

summary:
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuritis (CIDP) is an autoimmune disorder of the peripheral nervous system, most commonly affecting the myelin sheath. The pathophysiology of CIDP is not completely understood, but both humoral and cellular immunity appear to be involved in the genesis of this disease. Some diseases are particularly associated with CIDP such as diabetes, monoclonal gammopathies and hematological diseases.

CIDP can occur before, after or simultaneously with the onset of systemic diseases. The systemic diseases most often seen in association with polyneuropathies are lupus, Gougerot-Sjögren's syndrome and sarcoidosis.

Ultrasound of peripheral nerves is a useful and accessible tool. In CIDP, this examination can reveal diffuse or segmental nerve hypertrophy. In addition to the size of the nerve, this exploration analyzes the echogenicity and the aspect of the different fascicles within the nerve. S. Goedee et al have shown that nerve ultrasound has very good diagnostic parameters and low interobserver variability in the diagnosis of CIDP. F. Härtig et al suggests that nerve ultrasound can predict the therapeutic response and describes 3 main patterns: hypoechoic enlargement (active inflammation), nerve enlargement with hyperechoic add-on fascicles (axonal degeneration) and almost no enlargement ("cured" CIDP).

title: Apport du Lambeau Libre antébrachial Dans la Reconstruction Post-exentération

acronym: REXOR

summary:
Orbital exenteration is the en bloc removal of the entire orbital contents. This mutilating surgical technique is reserved for the management of certain malignant orbito-palpebral tumors or those that secondarily invade the orbit.

Several types of exenteration have been described, more or less extended to the adjacent structures, with sometimes mixed ENT-neurosurgical approaches for lesions invading the endocranium and causing large losses of substance.

Different surgical reconstruction techniques have been developed over the years, from spontaneous epithelialization to free osteo-muscular flap and temporal muscle transpositions.

Reconstruction after exenteration is essential to limit the sequelae and to allow the patient who has undergone this trauma to regain social interactions, a quality of life and an optimal self-image.

The use of an antebrachial free flap would allow a faster healing and thus an earlier rehabilitation.

The main objective of the study was to compare the morbidity of the antebrachial free flap with that of the temporal flap during exenteration and the rate of fitting of patients with epitheses.

title: Cryopreserved Aortic Homograft Versus Conventional Prosthetic Valves for Infective Endocarditis Involving the Aortic Valve : a Propensity Score Matched Analysis

acronym: IESCOPHO

summary:
: Evidence suggested that autologous or allogeneic tissue is more suitable to synthetic material in an infected field. Given the unwillingness of some surgeons to use artificial foreign materials, such as conventional mechanical or stent xenograft valve prostheses, cryopreserved aortic homografts (CAH) have been recommended revealing favorable outcomes in aortic valve endocarditis (AVE) surgery (1-5). This aspect is even more evident in cases involving prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE) and other complex and aggressive lesions involving the aortic root and intervalvular fibrosa with abscess formation. However, most of these reports are fixed on single-arm observational studies without comparing CAH with conventional prostheses.

The key question of this study is to establish the difference in treatment failure (death, recurrent aortic valve regurgitation and reoperation), all-cause and cause-specific (cardiac vs noncardiac) mortality, hospitalizations for heart failure during follow-up (structural/non structural valve deterioration, thromboembolism and recurrent endocarditis) in patients who received the CAH vs conventional mechanical or stent xenograft valve prostheses for aortic valve replacement (AVR) secondary to infective endocarditis (IE)

title: Performance of Emergency Physicians in the Management of Critical Situations Twenty-four Hours After the End of a Night Shift

summary:
Emergency medicine is one of the professional activities integrating a night activity into working time. Concerns about the sleep deprivation that this activity generates have been growing for the past thirty years. However, at present, the pace - duration and repetition - of this activity does not yet seem to be optimized, and therefore continues to be the subject of questions in terms of safety of care and quality of life at work. One of the peculiarities of emergency medicine is that doctors have to work in a crisis situation. A situation is qualified as critical for a patient when his state of health is unstable, and with an evolution which can be rapidly pejorative. Crisis situations are at the heart of the emergency room profession, and due to their potential seriousness for the patients, it must be managed in all circumstances.

To cope with a crisis situation, a doctor needs to be efficient. However, performance calls for two types of skills: technical skills on one hand, and non-technical skills on the other.

This study therefore aims to answer the following question: are the non-technical skills of emergency physicians in the management of a crisis situation affected twenty-four hours after the end of a night shift? The study assesses the performance of emergency physicians via complex simulations at two time frames : 24h after a night shift (the post recovery performance simulation) and another time were the participant did not have night shifts in less than 3 nights (usual performance simulation).

title: Self and Body Perception in Otoneurological Disorders: Translation and Validation of Measurement Scales

acronym: PERSOCOR

summary:
Depersonalization-derealization (DD) disorders are a clinical phenomenon characterized by feeling disconnected or detached from one's self. Individuals may report feeling as if they are an outside observer of their own thoughts or body, and often report feeling a loss of control over their thoughts or actions.

Several scales have been developed to measure DD, and the Cambridge Depersonalization Scale (CDS) appears to be the most relevant and consistent to characterize the clinical symptoms of these disorders as well as their duration and frequency. This scale, originally written in English, must be translated and validated according to standardized methods that include testing steps patients with dizziness and in individuals with no vestibular disorder.

Persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD) is a chronic, persistent vestibular syndrome generally preceded by acute vestibular disorders. The main symptoms are rotational dizziness, unsteadiness and / or non-rotating dizziness that are exacerbated by upright posture, walking, active or passive movement, and exposure to moving visual stimuli or complex visual patterns. To help diagnose this syndrome, a questionnaire was developed in Japan in 2019, the Niigata questionnaire, however no French version has yet been validated. Similarly, this scale needs to be validated in patient with PPPD and in control populations.

The main objective of this study is to validate the French translation of these two scales, the CDS questionnaire and the Niigata PPPD questionnaire, according to standard methods (forward translation, back translation, consensus).

title: Quaternary Ammonium and Immunization in Hairdressers

acronym: AQTIFF

summary:
"Quaternary ammonium ions (QA) are surfactants and microbicide products found in a large number of household products, disinfectants and cosmetics.

Professional exposure to QA causes allergic diseases of the skin and lung (asthma). It is also the firs cause of occupational rhinitis since 2000.

Several studies have found a link between exposure to some disinfectants and asthma in specific population. Moreover, a study showed that exposure to QA found in hairdressing products could also be a risk factor to allergy to neuro-muscular blocking agents.

However, the prevalence of QA sensitization amongst hairdressers is not known, sensitization mechanisms have been poorly characterized. To date, there is no recommendation regarding QA exposure nor classification of QA by toxicity. Finally, the link between hairdressing QA and drug allergy have not been confirmed yet.

The investigator hypothesize that it is possible to sensitize to QA by exposure to hairdressing products and then to declare allergic diseases. The investigator plan to study this hypothesis in an observational prospective cohort of hairdressing students by measuring both sensitization markers in blood and QA exposure. "

summary: Delayed bleeding is the most frequent (5 to 15%) and challenging complication after large colorectal polypectomy. Different preventive treatments, such as the prophylactic use of clips, have been tried to prevent the occurrence of delayed bleeding, but to date, no treatment has clearly shown its effectiveness. In addition, preventive hemostasis with clips is difficult and costly. A newly developed endoscopic hemostatic powder generating gelation effect (Nexpowder) may be an effective alternative to prevent post polypectomy bleeding in patients treated by endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) for large superficial colorectal lesions.

Prostate cancer represents the 1st diagnosed cancer in men, with 50400 new cases and 8100 deaths in 2018. Improved diagnostic and therapeutic strategies have led to a 3.7% decrease in mortality between 2010 and 2018 with a 5- and 10-year survival rate of 93% and 80%, respectively.

Pelvic conformal radiotherapy is an important therapeutic technique in the management of pelvic cancers, particularly prostate cancer. However, despite the improvement in radiation techniques, this technique is responsible for acute and late adverse events at the bladder level, these symptoms being grouped under the term radiation cystitis. It has a clear impact on the quality of life of patients. Acute radiation cystitis is likely to occur during treatment or within 3 months after radiotherapy. Its incidence is estimated at nearly 50%. The late form appears on average 2 years after radiation, but can sometimes occur 10 or 20 years later. Its incidence is 5 to 10% of cases.

Although certain factors have been identified, such as the dose received, fractionation or comorbidities, the pathophysiology of radiation-induced cystitis remains unclear, particularly because of the risks of complications arising from access to bladder tissue post-irradiation, thus limiting our knowledge as well as the therapies targeting this process. The use of biomarkers in liquid biopsies allows us to understand the problem of access to irradiated tissues and to highlight protein changes, prognostic of radiation-induced visceral toxicity.

Few works are published on the evaluation of inflammatory and pro-fibrotic biomarkers of radiation-induced cystitis in liquid biopsies. Only 2 retrospective studies have shown a correlation between late radiation cystitis and increased levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors (TIMP1 and TIMP2), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and placental growth factor (PIGF) in urine. However, none of these studies explored the variation of biomarkers in the early stage of radiation-induced bladder toxicity.

This would suggest the feasibility of prospective assay of overexpression of these proteins in liquid biopsies.

title: Retinal Microvascular Network and Coronary Revascularization Surgery at the Dijon University Hospital: Pilot Study

acronym: MRCC

summary:
When coronary artery disease cannot be treated with medication, revascularization surgery can be performed. Although there have been many advances in recent years, this surgery is still associated with a high incidence of cardiovascular complications.

These complications are more frequent in patients with microscopic vessel damage. In clinical practice, microvascular status is difficult to characterize. Several models have been proposed, but they remain imprecise and are difficult to reproduce.

However, the study of the retinal microvascular network has recently emerged as a promising model. It is simple, quick and non-invasive thanks to the use of photographs or CT scans of the fundus (by optical coherence tomography angiography = OCT-A). Thus, the retinal vasculature is very often presented as an in vivo access that provides a window into systemic peripheral vasculature.

Despite the systematic assessment of cardiovascular risk by the usual risk factors (diabetes, hypertension, sex, etc.), risk stratification remains imperfect in coronary revascularization surgery and remains associated with a high incidence of complications, the most frequent being acute kidney injury (AKI).

Preoperative screening for retinal microvascular data could improve surgical risk stratification and better predict the potential occurrence of severe renal complications. Patient management could thus tailored to avoid such complications.

The main objective of the study is to investigate, in patients scheduled for coronary revascularization surgery with extracorporeal circulation, the discriminative capacity of retinal vascular density to predict the occurrence of AKI within 7 days after surgery.

title: Incidence, Risk Factors and Outcomes for Early and Delayed Extubatiion Failure in Critically Ill Cirrhotic Patients

acronym: FREELIVER

summary:
Although a life-saving intervention, invasive mechanical ventilation (MV) prone to complications and side effects.

Cirrhotic patients with a need of prolonged MV have a poor prognosis in ICU compared to general population of critically ill patients. The optimal time for weaning from MV and extubation is therefore a crucial objective. Extubation failure is defined as the need for reintubation within 48-72 hours (early). This time frame is sometimes extended to 7 days (delayed), especially when noninvasive ventilation is used during extubation (SFAR-SRLF 2018 recommendations). Some studies have investigated the risk factors for extubation failure in general population of critically ill patients, and in some specific subpopulations (COPD, brain injury, elderly). But little is known about extubation failure in cirrhotic patients admitted in ICU.

The aim of the present study is to describe the incidence and identify specific risk factors for extubation failure in cirrhotic critically ill patients. Ultrasound and clinical data will be collected and analysed during the ICU stay.


title: Oculomotor Response While Using a Helmet Display Incorporating an Accommodation-vergence Stress Reduction Algorithm

acronym: ALGO-HMD

summary:
Operational military personnel are increasingly using virtual or augmented reality headsets in the field or in training. However, these devices cause a conflict between accommodation (focus to see clearly) and vergence (alignment of both eyes on the object being viewed) that can be a source of visual fatigue and altered visual and perceptual abilities. Although techniques exist to limit this conflict for screen-based stimuli, the use of helmet visuals (or immersive headsets) adds technological complexity. Indeed, since accommodation on the screen of the helmet visual is impossible (i.e., distance too small) for the human visual system, lenses are used to virtually shift the image (referred to as a collimated image) so that accommodation can occur much further away. However, this material configuration also modifies the vergence, thus causing a conflict between accommodation and additional vergence that persists regardless of the attenuation technique used.

In this study, the investigator proposed to modify the image display to take into account the technical features of the helmet to correct this techno-dependent conflict. This study is aimed at determining whether the setting recommended by the algorithm developed by the investigator limits visual fatigue better than the conventional setting recommended by manufacturers or a subjective setting controlled by the user.

title: Validation of the 3-Minute Diagnostic Interview for CAM-defined Delirium (3D-CAM) and the Ultra-Brief CAM (UB-CAM) in French.

acronym: French-UB-CAM

summary:
Delirium is very common in hospitalized older patients and associated with serious clinical bad outcomes (e.g. increased risk of functional decline and death). Despite its high prevalence in the hospital setting, delirium remains underdiagnosed. A better identification would allow an early management and a reduction of its complications.

The validation of easy-to-use and quick and formalized tools for the identification of delirium and their implementation in the clinical practice are necessary.

Recently, the 3D-CAM (3-minutes Diagnostic interview for Confusion Assessment Method -defined delirium) and the UB-CAM (Ultra-Brief CAM) showed very high sensitivity and specificity (> 90%), compared to the reference standard (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM criteria)) for the diagnosis of delirium.

The investigators aimed to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the French versions of the 3D-CAM and the UB-CAM used in delirium screening in older adults hospitalized in geriatric units, compared to reference standard.

title: Open-label, Multicenter, Prospective Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Duration of Treatment With Cabozantinib Among Patients With Metastatic or Locally Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma on Hemodialysis (HD).

acronym: Cabo-POLARIS

summary:
Among patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC), 2.7 to 4.7 % of patients are at risk of progressing to dialysis or transplantation after partial and radical nephrectomy respectively. Of note, similar risk factors can be seen in both disease: RCC and renal impairment leading to dialysis. Currently, three types of systemic therapies (ST) are mainly used among patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC): anti-angiogenics (mostly tyrosine kinase inhibitors and bevacizumab), mTOR inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitor.

ST prescription for patients undergoing HD may be more dangerous than in other patients. This is partially explained by the fact that several adverse events can be induced by both the ST and HD e.g. thromboembolic disease, or hypertension.

Patients in HD are usually excluded from major clinical trials and available data concerning safety and activity of ST in this specific population are lacking. In most cases, drugs' label is driven by the eligibility criteria of large randomized phase 3 trials that exclude this type of patients. The main source of information for these patients comes from academic publications of patients' cases or small cohorts, but they are not included within the drug label. Moreover, no clear guidelines are given by savant societies regarding those patients.

It is known that patients with HD are at high risk of specific adverse events that can sometimes overlap with the safety profile of anti-cancer drugs: thromboembolic complications, cardio-vascular comorbidities, hematologic and metabolic abnormalities.

Having a dedicated clinical trial to this particular population would definitely help the community to improve the care of HD patients by getting prospective data in order to increase the level of evidence and therefore to optimize anticancer drug use in this specific population.

title: Evaluation of the Effect of a Soluble Fiber Consumption on the Immune Response Post-influenza Vaccination in Healthy Subjects Aged 50 to 70 Years

acronym: NUTIVAC

summary:
At European level, the European Food Safety Agency has recognized two claims relating to the effects of prebiotics on the gastrointestinal sphere and on the immune system. In subjects aged 45-63, it was shown that a pre- and post-vaccination inulin consumption of 8g/day significantly increased the titer of antibodies directed against the H3N2 viral strain. The increase in bifidobacteria in the faeces confirmed that this effect was related to prebiotic capacities. The effect of prebiotics and probiotics on the immune response to influenza virus vaccination has been studied in two systematic reviews and meta-analyses. The authors show that the consumption of prebiotic fibers such as FOS, GOS, inulin, was also effective on the H3N2 strain, as on the H1N1 and B strains (antibody titers of 19.5%, 20.0% and 13.6% higher, respectively, compared to placebo).

The soluble fiber under study is a resistant dextrin meeting the definition of a prebiotic fibre. The prebiotic properties have been demonstrated in humans in several studies for doses ranging from 10 to 20 g/day. Similarly, studies show that the effects on immune functions are favorably impacted by a consumption of 10 g/day for 8 weeks . These results confirm those of a preclinical study conducted in mini-pigs.

The main objective of these study is to demonstrate that these prebiotic properties could help stimulate the post-vaccination immune response, and more specifically the production of antibodies directed against seasonal influenza viruses (following vaccination), and modulate the pro- and anti-inflammatory responses.

summary:
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a frequent and disabling disease, requiring early management to achieve clinical remission. Recently, baricitinib (jak1-jak2 inhibitor) has been shown to as an efficient treatment in placebo-controlled trials, and compared to the reference treatment with TNF inhibitor (adalimumab). Its efficacy has been reported on the inflammatory parameters, but more importantly on patient-reported outcomes. Baricitinib is thought to have anti-inflammatory effects, via its inhibition of the JAK pathway. Importantly, it has also been suggested to affect mood and pain.

Hypotheses: Inhibition of JAK Kinase pathway in patients with RA will improve emotional and cognitive processing involved in mood disorders and decrease pain sensitization.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate early emotional impact of the JAK 1/2 inhibitor Baricitinib assessed by a facial emotion recognition task. This precocious effect on emotion processing is a surrogate marker of clinical imporvement in mood.

Phase 4 study, Double-blind randomized control study with patients receiving placebo or baricitinib for 7 days, then open label study until day 42 with all patients receiving baricitinib during 5 weeks.


title: Cerebral Hemodynamic Impact in Children Depending on the Technique of Carotid Artery Decanulation Technique After Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: Modeling of Intra-cerebral Vascular Flows

acronym: MoVa-ECMO

summary:
Extra corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a transient supplementation technique that alleviates hemodynamic and ventilatory failure. Its implementation requires carotid arterial and jugular venous cannulation in newborns or children weighing less than 20 kg. The impact of ECMO on arterial circulation was studied by Doppler ultrasound and shows a redistribution of flows within the circle of Willis.

This study aims to model cerebral flow in children who have been cared from jugulocarotid ECMO and compare cerebral hemodynamics according to the technique of reconstruction of the common carotid artery after decanulation (reconstruction or ligation).


title: Prediction of Recurrence and Complications of Nephrolithiasis Using a Precision Medicine Approach

summary:
Nephrolithiasis is a disease caused by the formation of kidney stones in the urinary tract which can then partially or completely obstruct the latter causing an extremely sharp pain called renal colic. In industrialized countries, it affects 10 to 20% of the population, and is the most common kidney disease.The primary objective of this study is to identify the clinical, biological, genetic, molecular and environmental determinants predictive of recurrence of renal lithiasis.

The study follow-up visit schedule corresponds to the visits usually scheduled as part of patient care: 1 year from the inclusion visit (A1), 3 years (A3) then 5 years (A5). Samples for research (additional volume of blood, urine) will be taken by a registered nurse along with the routine check-up samples.Samples intended for research will be sent by staff to the Biobanque de Picardie (CHU Amiens-Picardie) for processing and conservation.

title: Efficiency of an Optimized Care Organization for Fatigue Management for Patients With COVID-19.

acronym: CoviMouv

summary: Length of hospitalization for COVID-19 infection may be increased due to the persistence of fatigue in 29-46% of cases. Its management is essential to prevent the chronic fatigue . Chronic fatigue syndrome affected between 30 and 40% of patients with SARS in 2003 or MERS in 2005 and persisted beyond 3 years. There is currently no specific treatment for acute or <4 months asthenia. To avoid the transition to chronicity, some authors recommend respecting a long rest period. However, a program combining adapted physical activity and therapeutic patient education has already shown significant benefits for combating recent or semi-recent fatigue following a cardiovascular pathology and even during cancer treatments. Therefore, the existing care pathway for hospitalized patients with COVID-19 was adapted, combining exercise training and therapeutic patient education workshops.

title: Assessment of Tolerance to the Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea by Shear Wave Inducer Collar

acronym: ET-SAOS-OC

summary:
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a common disease, affecting 10-15% of the general adult population. This pathology is characterized by iterative nocturnal episodes of complete or partial obstruction of the upper airways during sleep leading to chronic intermittent nocturnal hypoxia and sleep fragmentation. The number of nocturnal respiratory anomalies per hour of sleep characterizes the severity of the disease with a gradual gradation of severity from mild (from 5 to 15 anomalies per hour) to moderate (15 to 30 anomalies per hour) and severe (over 30 anomalies per hour). The rationale for this severity classification is the increase in morbidity and mortality proportional to the severity of OSA as defined.

OSA is accompanied by a fragmentation of sleep often responsible for excessive daytime sleepiness, causing an increase in occupational accidents with work stoppage and traffic accidents.

The second consequence of repeated nocturnal obstructions is chronic intermittent nocturnal hypoxia which has deleterious cardiovascular effects, constituting an independent cardiovascular risk factor.

Shear waves are elastic waves of low frequency (less than 1000 oscillation per second - 1000Hz). It propagates only in solids and soft solids such as the human body. The propagation of a shear wave generates a reversible micrometric displacement of the particles that make up this medium. The energy of these waves is related to the amplitude of movement of the particles.

Elastography is an imaging modality for measuring the elasticity of biological tissues by shear waves. The shear wave is a mechanical wave sensitive to the change in the elasticity of its propagation medium. This sensitivity is manifested by the variation of its propagation speed. Hardness results in acceleration of the wave and softness in its slowing down.

The therapeutic use of shear waves has never been used for the treatment of sleep apnea but its use could be an additional therapeutic arsenal of Continuous Positive Pressure.

The technology developed by BREAS MEDICAL AB is based on the use of shear waves for the treatment of sleep apnea. The treatment is delivered using a cervical collar equipped with six sources (vibrating pistons) generating shear waves. The treatment generates shear waves at frequencies that vary from 20 to 250 Hz continuously, and at amplitudes less than 50 microns of the same order of magnitude of vibration as snoring. In view of the innovative nature of the treatment, the medico-technical team of BREAS MEDICAL AB carried out an analysis of the risks related to the device and to the propagation of waves, including the norms and standards imposed by the competent bodies.

The investigators would like, in a first-dose study in humans, to assess safety in patients with sleep apnea syndrome.

title: Effect of Two Isoenergetic Modes of High-Intensity Interval Training on Total and Abdominal Fat Mass Loss in Men With Overweight or Obesity.

summary:
The aims of this study was to compare two isoenergetic HIIT (High-intensity Interval training) programs (cycling vs. running) on body composition, substrate oxidation at rest and during a moderate exercise, muscle functionality, glycaemic control, lipid profile, inflammation, maximal aerobic capacity (VO2max) and gut microbiota composition in men with overweight or obesity.

The investigators hypothesized that both programs could decrease total, abdominal and visceral fat mass but due to differences in muscle solicitation, metabolism adaptation and blood flow, and that running could favors greater fat mass losses.

title: Study of Vascular Endothelial Glycocalyx and Ophthalmic Injury in a Single-center, Cross-sectional, Prospective Cohort of Patients With Prolonged Post-COVID-19 Symptoms

acronym: GLYCOVLONG

summary:
The glycocalyx is a membrane coat composed of glycoproteins attached to the surface of cell membranes. Recent publications have drawn attention to the potential role of a degradation of the endothelial glycocalyx (a kind of gel that lines all the vessels of the body) during the SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome - coronavirus 2) epidemic.

The work of Yamaoka-Tojo et al. reveals vascular endothelial dysfunction in patients at high risk for developing a severe form of COVID 19. This observation prompts further investigation of vascular endothelial function in SARS-CoV-2-infected patients, and particularly those with long COVID.

As of the end of the first COVID-19 epidemic wave in May 2020, persistence of symptoms several weeks or months after the first manifestations of COVID-19 was described in more than 20% of patients after 5 weeks and in more than 10% after 3 months). The term "long COVID" describes this phenomenon of prolonged symptoms following COVID-19.

The French National Authority for Health has established criteria to identify people with prolonged symptoms after an initial episode of clinically and/or biologically documented COVID-19: an initial symptomatic episode, the presence of at least one of the initial symptoms beyond 4 weeks after the onset of the acute phase of the disease, and initial and prolonged symptoms not explained by another diagnosis not known to be related to COVID-19.

Among the observations reported in patients with long COVID, ophthalmic involvement is poorly described.

A team of ophthalmologists of the Rothschild Foundation has demonstrated (using indocyanine green angiography, adaptive optics and optical coherence tomography techniques) disorders of the choroidal circulation, with abnormalities of the vascular walls, presence of "pachyvessels" and "caverns", in COVID-positive patients hospitalized at 6 months of their hospitalization.

title: Identification of Image Phenotypes to Predict Recurrence After Resection of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

acronym: LIVERIBIOPSY

summary:
Tumor recurrence, which occurs in 70% of patients with HCC within 5 years after hepatic resection, is a major cause of post-resection-death. This recurrence can be true recurrence (intrahepatic metastases), which occurs sooner than 2 years later, or it can be due to the development of de-novo tumors at least 2 years later. Despite this high rate of tumor recurrence, no anti-recurrence adjuvant therapies are currently recommended.

Imaging phenomics is the systematic, large scale extraction of imaging features for the characterization and classification of disease phenotypes. Combining imaging and tissue phenomics could be a solution to predict HCC recurrence. With the emergence of molecular therapies and immunotherapies, identifying patients with HCC at high risk of post-resection recurrence would help determine additional therapeutic and management strategies in clinical practice.

title: Impact of Local Tissue Inflammation on Intramyocardial Conduction Pathways Post Percutaneous Valve : Evaluation by Positron Emission Tomography on Exploratory Cohort

acronym: IMPACT

summary:
Aortic valve stenosis is the most common valve disease leading to surgical or percutaneous intervention in Europe and North America. Percutaneous aortic valve replacement (TAVI) is currently recommended for the management of patients with symptomatic aortic stenosis and with high; very high operative risk of aortic valve replacement surgery or intermediate operative risk of aortic valve replacement surgery after a benefit-risk assessment by a heart team and operative contraindication to conventional aortic valve replacement surgery. These indications are supported by the 2017 European Cardiology guidelines.

This technique of percutaneous arterial valve implantation is most often performed via the femoral route, under local anesthesia, with placement of a prosthetic biological valve in the aortic position, impacting it into the patient's native aortic valve.

TAVI has been shown to be superior to medical treatment in patients with a aortic valve stenosis at very high operative risk of conventional aortic valve replacement surgery. However, the occurrence of atrioventricular conduction disorders (de novo left bundle branch block (LBBB) or complete AVB) remains the most frequent complication after TAVI. Therefore, the rate of pacemaker (PM) implantation after TAVI remains high, ranging from 2% to 51%, with an average rate of 13%.

Pacemaker implantation has several deleterious effects (increased hospitalization time, desynchronization of the left ventricle by permanent right ventricular pacing, exposure of the patient to procedural complications of pacemaker placement, and possible increase in the final cost to society of the initial hospitalization.

Not all patients who received a pacemaker post TAVI implantation use their PM. The rate of Pacemaker dependency and therefore of patients who actually use their pacemaker is approximately 33-36% at 1 year after percutaneous valve implantation.

In view of all the potentially deleterious consequences of post TAVI pacemaker implantation, it is therefore necessary to know which patients really justify pacemaker implantation after percutaneous valve implantation.

The purpose of this study is to investigate diagnostic imaging criteria that may be predictive of the occurrence of intramyocardial conduction disorders post TAVI implantation. Although some patients present only transient conductive disturbances, the impact of tissue inflammation of the intramyocardial conduction pathways after TAVI remains to be understood.

title: Prognostic's Factors of Head and Neck Paragangliomas Evolution

acronym: PRONO-PARAG

summary:
Cervical paragangliomas (HNPG) are rare tumors (0.6% of head and neck tumors) arising from chromaffin tissue, of cervical paraganglia (PGL). The most common locations are carotid body (60% of cases), jugulo-tympanic region and vagal body.

More than 30% are proved to occur in a context of genetic predisposition, more often in young people, and genetic screening is recommended in all patients. Multifocal tumors represent 12% of all HNPG and until 50% of familial forms. Most of HNPG are non-secreting, benign and slow growing tumors, but up to 30% present complications of local growth, and up to 10% can develop distant metastasis that define malignancy since there is no pathological marker.

Historically, surgical treatment was the standard of care but represents nowadays around 50% of the treatment, mostly due to the identification of high morbidity rates. The rate of recurrence is probably around 10% at 5 years. Radiotherapy and active follow-up represent the main therapeutic alternatives.

The standard of care is classically surgical but may expose to important sequelae leading to a review of its primary indication. Indeed, cranial nerve palsies (VII, IX, X, XI and XII) may complicate up to 20% of carotid PGL surgeries and up to 95% of vagal PGL surgeries. They are leading to significant functional sequelae, sometimes requiring recourse to a gastrostomy (4/79 patients operated on in a retrospective cohort). First bite syndrome, Claude Bernard Horner syndrome, baroreceptor failure, xerostomia, and ischemic events complicate 5.8%, 4.9%, 1.9%, 1%, and 1% of surgeries respectively. In a local retrospective study conducted by the Hospices Civils de Lyon on 34 operated cervical PGL, the overall complication rate reached 62%. These complications depend mainly on the location tumor and its size.

Control rate of irradiated HNPG at 5 years from retrospective series seems to be around 90%. They seems also to have a possible better progression-free survival at 15 years than surgery. The tolerance is correct, the risk of induced malignancy is estimed at 1/1000 to 1/2000. Without treatment, 44% of cervical PGL show a significant progression (median follow-up 51 months). Progression is estimated at 0.41 mm/year for jugulo-tympanic PGL and 1.6 mm/year for vagal and carotid PGL.

Currently, there is no clear and robust consensus regarding the follow-up of cervical PGL and the indications for different therapeutic strategies. Data available are represented by retrospective studies only, mostly small in size, with heterogeneous and often inadequate follow-up compared to slow tumor growth.

Thus, this prospective cohort study with a standardized long-term follow-up will allow to characterize the management modalities and the evolution of this population.

title: Percutaneous Treatment of Iatrogenic False Femoral Aneurysms by Ultrasound-guided Thrombin Injection

acronym: EGTI

summary:
Since the 2000s, endovascular procedures have been expanding rapidly in multiple disciplines: cardiology, radiology, interventional neuroradiology, and of course vascular surgery. Most procedures are performed by puncture of the common femoral artery with introducers ranging in size from 4F to 26F for aortic procedures.

The most frequent complications of percutaneous punctures are false femoral aneurysms due to failure to close the arterial gap (up to 8% in some studies). A false aneurysm is a pocket of blood communicating with an artery and secondary to the rupture of the arterial wall. The blood is then contained by the adjacent structures and often a fibrous shell which distinguishes it from an aneurysm which retains the integrity of its wall.

The management of false femoral aneurysms is variable. Below 2 cm, monitoring may be performed with or without manual or ultrasound-guided compression. In case of persistence of the false aneurysm and/or complication, open surgery can be performed.

Endovascular treatment of false aneurysms was first proposed in 1986. Different endovascular techniques can be proposed to occlude false aneurysms such as the use of coils, biological glue, the use of arterial closure systems...

Echoguided injection of thrombin to occlude the false aneurysm in a manner has been published since the late 1990s. The treatment is evaluated as reliable and safe. A recent article in the EJVES (6) investigates the value of low-dose thrombin for this indication, and the results appear to be very encouraging for low-dose thrombin in false femoral aneurysms.

Thrombin injection for the treatment of iatrogenic false femoral aneurysms is the technique currently favoured by the vascular surgery team at the Paris Saint Joseph Hospital Group (GHPSJ). Open surgery is a second-line treatment and remains indicated in case of acute symptoms (radiculalgia, motor/sensory deficits; ischemia, skin necrosis), a false aneurysm that is too deep or without a neck, an infectious origin or a patient treated with dabigatran. Patients will be reviewed at 1 and 12 months according to the usual follow-up.

In this work, investigators will study the efficacy of false aneurysm closure using human thrombin injection. This work is intended to confirm previous work. A socio-economic study may be conducted in parallel. Follow-up after the use of percutaneous closure systems and in the context of bypass surgery may also be of interest.

summary:
ICU Patients admitted after ARDS due to COVID infection should be weaned from invasive mechanical ventilation as quickly as possible.

60% of ARDS patient after COVID infection admitted in ICU developp a delirium during mechanical ventilation weaning, serious event that can lead to death or acute and late complications since 30% of patients who had a delirium in ICU develop cognitive sequelae. Based on epidemiological arguments and mouse models, severe neuroinflammation is considered to be one of the physiopathological mechanisms causing delirium during ventilatory weaning.

In addition to its sedative properties, dexmedetomidine exhibits neuroprotective effects. In experimental models, dexmedetomidine reduces brain inflammation acting directly on the microglial phenotype. The role of this chronic neuroinflammatory condition on cognitive abilities and reserve begins to emerge in the literature no matter the initial stress is (surgery, head trauma, or Alzheimer's type dementia) and is therefore able to influence quality of life. The evaluation of this neuroinflammation by non-invasive tools appears essential in the management and follow-up of post-COVID cerebrolesed patients, as well as the potentially neuroprotective evaluation of dexmedetomidine.


title: Identification of the Causative Drug in Drug-induced Acute Interstitial Nephritis

acronym: IDENIAM

summary: Drug-induced acute interstitial nephritis (DAIN) is a rare entity characterized by acute renal failure linked to inflammation of the renal parenchyma secondary to allergenic drug exposure. Treatment is based primarily on the precise identification of the causative drug and its final elimination. Currently, the identification of the causative drug is based on clinical presumption. There is no test to formally identify the causative drug. On the other hand, in-vitro allergological tests (lymphocyte transformation test in particular) have been developed in the course of immuno-allergic drug toxiderma linked to delayed type IV hypersensitivity to identify the causal drug. These tests have not been studied during DAIN, but their value in drug-induced eruption is indisputable. The objective of our study is to determine whether in vitro allergy tests can identify the causative drug during DAIN. If the in vitro tests fail, they will be supplemented by allergological skin tests.

summary: Many studies have shown Childhood Cancer Survivors (CCS) are ill-informed about long-term follow-up (LTFU). Massive open online courses (MOOCs) could easily allow a deployment at an international level and make reliable information available for all CCS, wherever they live. The MOOC team (specialists of LTFU care, communication professionals and CCS associations), bringing together nearly 130 people, designed a MOOC named "Childhood Cancer, Living Well, After" including three modules addressing transversal issues (lifestyle, psychological support, fertility problems) and eight modules covering organ-specific problems.


title: Study of Alterations in Tumor Metabolism Associated With the Development of Immunotherapy Resistance in Melanoma

acronym: MEL-META

summary: Among the mechanisms responsible for resistance to immunotherapy, metabolism seems to play a major role. A better understanding of tumor metabolism appears to be absolutely necessary in order to propose efficient therapeutic alternatives to target tumor cells without exerting a deleterious effect on the cells responsible for the anti-tumor immune response. The main objective is to evaluate metabolism modulations in melanoma cells extracted from metastases of patients sensitive and resistant to immunotherapies (anti-PD1 or anti-PD1+anti-CTLA4).

title: Contribution of a High-resolution Diffusion Sequence at 3T for the Detection of Acute Punctate Ischemic Brain Lesions

summary:
Stroke is a public health issue and a priority for our institution. MRI plays an essential role in the management of stroke, its contribution being diagnostic, etiological and prognostic.

Among the MRI sequences used in stroke emergencies, the diffusion sequence plays a key role in highlighting ischemic lesions as early as the hyperacute phase, even though the other sequences in the protocol do not reveal any anomaly. This sequence alone conditions the management of patients, particularly in the context of "thrombolysis emergencies".

It has been shown that the sensitivity of the diffusion sequence for the detection of ischemic lesions can directly depend on acquisition parameters such as b value, slice thickness or spatial resolution.

Recent advances in MRI now allow us to perform diffusion sequences with higher spatial resolution. The matrix is an important acquisition parameter of MRI sequences defining the ability of the sequence to distinguish 2 pixels in the acquisition plane. The higher the matrix, the higher the spatial resolution of the sequence in the acquisition plane.

At the Saint-Joseph Hospital, we have a new 3T MRI since September 2020 allowing the acquisition in clinical routine of a more resolved diffusion sequence: 160x200 matrix ("high resolution" diffusion, HR), against 128x140 ("standard" diffusion usually). These two sequences are acquired in particularly short acquisition times (1 minute 37 seconds). This HR diffusion sequence is performed as part of routine care since September 2020 for specific situations: absence of lesion highlighted on the standard diffusion sequence while the patient has a suggestive symptomatology (especially for lesions of the brainstem), search for lesion in other vascular territories (thus in favor of an embolic origin) in a patient who presents an isolated ischemic lesion or ischemic lesions in a single territory.

It has been reported in the literature that increasing the spatial resolution can reveal small lesions that were not visible on more conventional sequences. There is a clear rationale for seeking to improve the detection of small lesions (<5 mm) because their detection may have important therapeutic implications for many patients (particularly in the context of thrombolysis emergencies, transient ischemic attacks, or amnesic strokes).

title: Oxytocin Serum Variation Following Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy in Morbidly Obese Women

acronym: BARIA

summary: Morbid obesity has become a common condition and there is no effective drug that is able to induce a sustained weight loss. Currently bariatric surgery remains the only effective means that is able to lead to long term sustained weight loss. Oxytocin is a hormone secreted by the hypophysis that regulates negatively the adipogenesis and positively the osteogenesis. Oxytocin also regulates appetite and its role in weight loss in humans has not been investigated so far. The aim of the present study is to elucidate whether plasma levels of oxytocin and sleeve gastrectomy induced weight loss are correlated in pre-menopausal morbidly obese women.


title: Optimization of the Sensitivity of Histological Diagnosis of Pulmonary Nodules Using Cryoprobes Versus Standard Biopsy Forceps During Distal Sampling Guided by Mini Radial Ultrasound Probes

acronym: CRYOPROBE

summary:
In pulmonary oncology, the diagnosis of medium-sized pulmonary nodules (10 to 20 mm), too distal to be reached by standard bronchial fibroscopy but remaining proximal, is difficult.

There are 2 techniques: transthoracic puncture-biopsy under CT scan, usually performed by radiologists, and distal sampling guided by radial ultrasound mini-probe.

The limitations of the last technique could be overcome by the use of cryoprobes for sampling, as they would take more tissue by freezing.

summary: Parkinson's disease (PD) is usually responsible of cognitive and behavioral non-motor signs with a major impact on the quality of life. Social cognition is a complex system relying on emotion recognition (neurons mirror system (NMS)), the theory of mind (with its two parts: emotional and cognitive), but also on the social and cultural environment and the personal history. The first step in this model is represented by the NMS, which seems to be altered in PD patients for both positive and negative emotions as shown in our preliminary study. The investigator purpose is to investigate the role of the treatment (levodopa and deep brain stimulation) on the functioning of the NMS

title: The Choice of a Violent Suicidal Means: a MRI Study With Computational Modeling of Decision-making

summary:
The study authors hypothesize a combination of cognitive, brain structural, brain functional and brain connectivity impairments in Suicide Attempters compared to Patient Controls and Healthy Controls, with deficits more marked in suicide attempters using violent suicidal means including:

Impaired choices at the reversal learning task with responses influenced by immediate outcome. This deficit would be correlated with brain activity in ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex during resting state and with several peripheral markers of the 5HT-system.
Reduced loss aversion. These deficits would be related to altered dynamics of Blood-Oxygen Level Dependent signal in the dorsal and ventral striatum as well as in ventral Prefrontal Cortex/ orbitofrontal cortex during the loss aversion task. These deficits would also be correlated with several peripheral markers of the 5HT-system.
Increased pain tolerance facilitating the execution of a violent and possibly painful act. These deficits measured with the algometer would be correlated with several peripheral markers of the 5HT-system.
Reduced behavioral inhibition in aversive context at the orthogonalized GoNoGo task facilitating the choice of a violent means. These deficits would be associated with altered Blood-Oxygen Level Dependent signal in ventral Prefrontal Cortex/ orbitofrontal cortex and parietal cortex during the resting state and correlated with several peripheral markers of the 5HT-system.

title: Effects of Catalepsy on the Parasympathetic Tone Assessed by ANI (Analgesia/Nociception Index) and on Absorption, Dissociation and Perception of Time During the Hypnotic Trance.

acronym: CATALHYPNOANI

summary:
Catalepsy seems to facilitate hypnotic induction and deepen hypnotic trance, although no work confirms the usefulness of this technique which is in common use in hypnosis. Furthermore, it has been shown that the hypnotic trance state is accompanied by an increase in parasympathetic tone, the non-invasive measurement of which is easy by the ANI monitor (Analgesia Nociception Index).

The research hypothesis is that, by adding a body dissociation, catalepsy could facilitate and intensify the hypnotic trance, the intensity of which can be monitored and is proportional to the parasympathetic tone.

title: Determination of the Glycemic Index of Pastry. A Randomized Study on Healthy Volunteers.

acronym: IG-DESSERT

summary:
In the early 1980s and following the first publications by Jenkins et al., The notion of glycemic index (GI) appeared with the aim of classifying the different sources of carbohydrates in our diet according to their effect on the post-prandial glycemic response. Since these years, many studies have been designed to determine the usefulness of the glycemic index and indicate that a low glycemic index for a food, a dish, a meal or a diet is associated with a decreased risk of metabolic pathologies (diabetes, hypertriglyceridemia), degenerative (cardiovascular diseases) or overload (obesity). This justifies the interest in favoring foods with a low glycemic index in healthy subjects.

A review confirmed the mechanistic link between postprandial blood sugar and the variability of blood sugar, making it possible, on the one hand, to maintain good glucose homeostasis and, on the other hand, to prevent pathologies such as obesity, diabetes and cardio-vascular diseases. The EFSA also considers that reducing the increase in blood sugar in the post-meal phase can be considered a physiological benefit, especially in subjects with glucose intolerance.

Post-meal blood sugar depends on many factors including the glycemic index of foods eaten during the meal. Knowing the glycemic index of foods is therefore very useful.

Mademoiselle Dessert offers pastries with a low glycemic index. The objective of this study is thus to determine the glycemic index of 6 pastries in order to inform consumers on these pastries glycemic index.

title: Real Life Assessment of Biologics Efficacy in Severe Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps

acronym: BIOPOSE

summary:
With a prevalence of 2-4% in western countries, Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP) is of major concern regarding its substantial impact on the social and physical quality of life. So far, endoscopic sinus surgery remains the treatment of choice when the first line of medical treatment with corticosteroid has failed.

During the last 15 years, several studies have shown that CRSwNP is associated with a T helper 2 (T2) immune response leading to B cell release of IgE, mucosal recruitment of eosinophils from bone marrow via Interleukin (IL)-5, IL-4 and IL-13 mediated chemoattractant production.

New biologic agents capable of blocking T2 cytokines have been developed in the field of eosinophil-associated diseases, shifting the paradigm of treatment for patients with CRSwNP. In the near future, endotype profiling with accurate biomarkers will be mandatory to tailor the treatment of nasal polyposis with specific biologic therapies.

Herein we propose a prospective study monitoring medical records of CRSwNP patients who undergo biologic treatments. The objectives are to assess treatment efficacy on quality of life, to report clinical and biological criteria for prescription and to measure tolerance and compliance.

title: Effect of Weekly GLP1 Agonist Treatment in "Double Diabetes": a Randomized Open-label Study

acronym: TOLEDDO

summary:
Between 16% and 22% of type 1 diabetic patients present a clinical and biological profile of insulin resistance favored by a family history of type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome. They constitute a group of patients with "double diabetes" since they have both true type 1 diabetes and inherited insulin resistance, typical of type 2 diabetes.

For several years, GLP1 agonists have been successfully used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, leading to very significant improvements in glycemic control and weight loss.

Because of the insulin-sensitizing power of GLP1 agonists, the investigators hypothesize that they could reduce insulin resistance in patients with "double diabetes" and thus improve their glycemic control.

The investigators propose to use in this study semaglutide, the most recent and most potent GLP1 agonist (superiority demonstrated compared to exenatide LP and dulaglutide) and administered as a weekly subcutaneous injection (in contrast to liraglutide administered daily).

title: Contribution of Inflammation and Neuronal Integrity Markers in Patients With First-episode Conversive Motor Disorder

acronym: HYCOIN

summary:
Conversion disorders, also called "dissociative disorders" (ICD-10), or "functional neurological disorders" (DSM-5), are a common condition, with a prevalence of 1-10% in medical and surgical inpatients (Toone 1990), and 10-30% in neurology patients (Carson et al. 2000).

They are characterized by the presence of symptoms or deficits affecting voluntary motor, sensory, or sensory functions suggestive of a neurological or general medical condition in combination with psychological factors. Functional neurological disorder is currently a diagnosis of elimination and its treatment remains uncodified. A better understanding of the pathophysiology of this disorder is needed to improve the diagnostic and therapeutic approach to this condition.

Identifying new biological markers associated with motor symptoms occurring during the course of the functional neurological disorder would allow clinicians to acquire new diagnostic methods, to improve therapeutic means and their specificity and to highlight possible predictive factors of the clinical evolution of this pathology. At the same time, the identification of biological markers associated with motor symptoms will allow the patient to better understand and accept the diagnosis, and thus to better adhere to the proposed treatment.

title: Avalanche Phenomenon During Airways Opening in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

acronym: AVALANCHE

summary: Acute respiratory distress syndrome accounts for 23% of mechanically ventilated patients and is associated with high mortality rate. Although life-saving, mechanical ventilation may worsen lung injury through two main mechanisms: lung overdistension and atelectrauma. Indeed, the cyclic opening and closure of airways during tidal ventilation may cause lung and bronchial injuries as suggested by animal models and autopsy findings. Complete airways closure has recently been described in 40% of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome, and setting positive end-expiratory pressure above the airway opening pressure may limit atelectrauma. However, animal and mathematical models suggest that above the airway opening pressure, more distal airways open unevenly according to their own opening pressure, resulting in an "avalanche"-like phenomenon during lung inflation. This phenomenon has never been described in humans. A better understanding of the opening of airways in acute respiratory distress syndrome may help to limit ventilation-induced lung injury and to improve outcomes.

The Newborn Infant Parasympathetic Evaluation (NIPE) was developed as a method of analysis of the heart rate variability. The monitor gives a value between 0 (low value of the parasympathetic component) and 100 (high value of the parasympathetic component).

So far, the measure of the heart failure variability by using the NIPE in infant born very premature ventilated and sedated in neonatal reanimation has not been realised and validated as an evaluation method of the pain and discomfort related to neonatal care.


title: Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Mepivacaine on the Neurological Sequelae of Cerebral Infarction

acronym: MEPI-AVC

summary:
A patient, suffering from cortical blindness after a bi-occipital infarction 1 year earlier, regained near-normal vision in the right visual hemifield a few minutes after subcutaneous administration of mepivacaine. The effect was maintained for several days, and was repeated with each injection of mepivacaine. This clinical improvement is associated with functional changes in the peri-lesional areas on resting-state functional MRI.

The investigator team hypothesizes that in some patients with chronic neurological symptoms of stroke, the investigator team will observe a favorable response to subcutaneous mepivacaine injection.
