Construction and preliminary validation of a tool to measure the needs of adolescents and young adults (AYA) diagnosed with cancer: the QUestionnaire nEEd Cancer AYAs: QUEEC-AYAs.

CONTEXT: In France, 2300 adolescents and young adults (AYAs, 15-25 years old) are diagnosed with cancer each year. As soon as the disease is diagnosed, a number of physical, psychological and social needs may arise. The aim of this study is to develop a tool to measure unmet needs that will allow the specificities of AYAs to be understood while allowing health care staff to mobilise the necessary actors to resolve them. METHODS: We developed the Questionnaire nEEd Cancer AYAs (QUEEC-AYAs questionnaire), from two existing questionnaires: the Cancer Needs Questionnaire Young People and the Needs Assessment & Service Bridge. A main sample of 103 AYAs then received and completed the questionnaire in order to conduct an exploratory factor analysis. RESULTS: The final structure of the QUEEC-AYAs is composed of 7 dimensions and 48 items: information (8 items), cancer care team (6 items), Physical health (4 items), Emotional health (14 items), Sexual & reproductive health (6 items), Health behaviors & wellness (4 items), Daily life (6 items). The questionnaire has a good acceptability and all domains have a Cronbach's alphas value above 0.80. CONCLUSION: The QUEEC-AYAs is the first measure of the psychosocial needs of AYAs available in French. Its systematic use in health care services should improve the coordination of care required by AYAs during and after treatment. TRIAL REGISTRATION: This study was approved by the ethics committee of the Paoli-Calmettes Institute (IRB # IPC 2021-041, 2021 May 20).

Comparative Passivation of Si(100) by H2 and D2 Atmospheres under Simultaneous Xe+ Bombardment: An X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy Analysis.

This study presents a comparison of H2 and D2 passivation on Si(100) under simultaneous Xe+ ion bombardment. The impact of Xe+ ions causes significant damage to the substrate surface, leading to an increase in H2 (D2) retention as Si-H (Si-D) bonds. The ion bombardment conditions are precisely controlled using a Kaufman ion gun. The atomic concentrations on the surface of the sample were investigated by quasi-in situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. A simple methodology is employed to estimate the H (D) chemical concentration and the cover ratio of the sample, with regard to the oxygen concentration through residual water chemisorption present in the vacuum vessel. Differences in passivation are expected when using H2 or D2 atmospheres because their retained scission energies and physisorption properties differ. The results indicate an increase of the sticking coefficient for D2 and H2 under the ion bombardment. It is also found that the flux of H2 (D2) impinging on the surface contributes to play an important role in the whole process. Finally, a model is proposed to describe the phenomenon of the passivation of Si under Xe+ ion bombardment in the presence of H2 (D2).

Prelacrimal window approach to the maxillary sinus: a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature.

BACKGROUND: The prelacrimal window approach (PLWA) is a minimally invasive surgical technique that has been proposed as an alternative to the traditional approaches to access the maxillary sinus. METHODOLOGY: A systematic review with meta-analysis was performed following PRISMA guidelines and identified 368 articles for initial review of which 14 (610 participants) met the criteria for meta-analysis. Four databases, including PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science and Scopus, were searched to identify relevant articles. Two independent reviewers conducted the eligibility as- sessment for the included studies. Methodology quality and risk of bias were evaluated by New Castle Ottawa scale. The outco- mes assessed were recurrence of the pathology, postoperative morbidity including epiphora, dry nose, facial, gingival numbness, epistaxis or local infection. RESULTS: The present data suggest a significant reduction in the recurrence rate of maxillary sinus pathology following PLWA when compared to conventional surgery (endoscopic medial maxillectomy, endoscopic sinus surgery and the Caldwell-Luc operation). The rates of epiphora, facial or gingival numbness, epistaxis or infection requiring intervention, were not significantly different between the procedures. CONCLUSIONS: Maxillary sinus pathology can be effectively treated using the PLWA technique, as it has been shown to result in a lower recurrence rate compared to conventional surgeries.

The effects of gestational age on neonatal cholestasis: A retrospective cohort study.

BACKGROUND: Reference guidelines for neonatal conjugated hyperbilirubinemia (cholestasis) management use a uniform approach regardless of gestational age (GA). We hypothesize that the clinical pattern of neonatal cholestasis is tightly related to GA. The aim of this study was to describe the effects of GA on neonatal cholestasis. METHODS: A retrospective 4-year cohort study in a 70-bed neonatal care unit. Neonates with conjugated bilirubin≥34.2µmol/L (2 mg/dL) were identified. The incidence, clinical characteristics, etiology, treatment, and prognosis were compared between infants <32 and≥32 weeks GA. RESULTS: Overall incidence of cholestasis was 4% (125/3402). It was >5 times higher and the mean duration was >1.5 times longer in neonates <32 weeks GA (10% versus 1.8%, p <0.01 and 49 versus 31 days, p <0.01, respectively). The onset of cholestasis was later in neonates <32 weeks (22 versus 10 days of life, p <0.001). This later onset of cholestasis was associated with parenteral nutrition, whereas the earlier onset was associated with other causes. Treatment using fish oil lipids was more frequently administrated to infants <32 weeks GA, whereas Ursodeoxycholic acid was administrated more frequently in≥32 weeks GA. Cholestasis resolved during hospitalization in 73% of <32 versus 38% in≥32 weeks GA infants (p <0.01). CONCLUSIONS: The incidence, clinical presentation, etiology, treatment, and clinical evolution of neonatal cholestasis were all significantly affected by GA. Our results support the use of a GA-oriented approach for the management of neonatal cholestasis.

Pseudotumor cerebri in the paediatric population: clinical features, treatment and prognosis.

INTRODUCTION: Pseudotumor cerebri (PC) in prepubertal patients displays certain characteristics that differentiate it from its presentation at the postpubertal stage. The aim of this study is to describe the characteristics of paediatric patients diagnosed with PC at our centre and to compare them according to their pubertal status. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We included patients aged between 1 and 18 years who were diagnosed with PC in a tertiary-level hospital between 2006 and 2019 and who met the updated diagnostic criteria for PC. They were classified according to body weight and pubertal status. Subsequently, we analysed results from lumbar punctures, neuroimaging studies, ophthalmological assessments, and treatments received during follow-up. RESULTS: We included 28 patients, of whom 22 were of prepubertal age and 6 were of postpubertal age. The mean age (standard deviation) was 9.04 (2.86) years. Among the postpubertal patients, 83.3% were boys, 66.7% of whom presented overweight/obesity. In the group of prepubertal patients, 27% were boys, 31.8% of whom were overweight. The most frequent symptoms were headache (89.9%) and blurred vision (42.9%). All patients presented papilloedema, and 21.4% manifested sixth nerve palsy. Possible triggers were identified in 28.6% of cases. Nineteen percent of patients presented clinical recurrence, all of whom were prepubertal patients. Complete clinical resolution was achieved in 55.6% of patients. CONCLUSION: Prepubertal patients with PC show lower prevalence of obesity, higher prevalence of secondary aetiologies, and higher recurrence rates than postpubertal patients.

[Translated article] Experience in major complications with total trapezometacarpal prostheses.

INTRODUCTION: The treatment of rhizarthrosis using trapeziometacarpal prostheses (TMP) is increasing. Complications may lead to loss of the implant and result in salvage surgery. Our aim was to assess major complications with the use of some TMP models and their rescue. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Retrospective study on TMP implanted between 2006 and 2021. Models studied: Arpe®, Elektra®, Ivory®, Maïa®, Isis® and Touch®. Demographic data were assessed, implant placement by radiographic study, technical data, complications, salvage surgeries and final survival. RESULTS: Review of 224 TMP, 45 Arpe® (95.5% survival, rate follow-up [R] 6-16 years), 5 Elektra® (80% survival, R 13-14), 14 Ivory® (92.8% survival, R 9-11), 7 Maïa® (100% survival, R 8-9), 115 Isis® (99.1% survival, R 1-8), 38 Touch® (100% survival, R 1-4). The medial angle of the dome with the proximal articular surface of the trapezium in the lateral plane, was: Arpe®: 8.85°, Elektra®: not assessable, Ivory®: 6.6°, Maïa®: 14.4°, Isis®: 3.8°, and Touch®: 5.95°. The Isis® was placed 100% with scopic guidance presenting a significantly lower angle respect to the medial angle of the dome with the proximal articular surface of the trapezium. As main complications, we observed 3.5% of dislocations and 4% of mobilisations, with the Elektra® being responsible for 47% of these. Nineteen salvage surgeries were performed, with 3% of the implants being lost. CONCLUSIONS: Dislocation and mobilisation are the most observed complications, the Elektra® responsible for almost half of them. Correct placement and implant design appear to be crucial to avoid them in the short and long term.

R-mandelonitrile-lyase, homolog to Pru d 10, is a major peach allergen in peach allergic Spanish population.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Peach allergy is a prevalent cause of food allergy. Despite the repertoire of allergens available for molecular diagnosis, there are still patients with undetectable IgE levels to peach allergens but presenting symptoms after its ingestion. The objective of this study was to investigate the allergenic profile in a patient population with symptoms produced by peach. METHODS: An exploratory retrospective study was performed with patients presenting symptoms after the ingestion of peach. Forty-two patients were included in the study. The allergenic profile of individual patients was investigated by immunoblot. A serum pool was prepared with the sera that recognized a 70 kDa band. This pool was used to detect this protein in peach peel and pulp and to identify the 70 kDa protein in 2D immunoblot. Spots recognized in the 2D immunoblot were sequenced by LC-MS/MS. Inhibition studies were performed between peach peel and almond. RESULTS: Twenty-two patients (52.4%) recognized the 70 kDa protein in immunoblot. This protein was recognized in peel and pulp. Two different spots were observed in 2D-PAGE, both were identified as (R)-mandelonitrile lyases (RML) with high amino acid similarity with Pru du 10. Peach RML were partially inhibited with an almond extract. No association was found between any reported symptom and sensitization to RML. RML-sensitized patients were older and reported pollen associated respiratory symptoms more frequently than negative patients. CONCLUSION: A new peach allergen, a RML, homologous of Pru du 10, recognized by 52% of the population has been identified.

Medication economic burden of antidepressant non-adherence in Spain.

Introduction: Non-adherence to antidepressants is associated with worse disease outcomes (morbidity and mortality) and correlates with higher healthcare resource utilization and costs. Methods: A population-based registry study was conducted to assess non-adherence and to analyze the economic burden of treatment and from non-adherence to antidepressants in 2021. Non-adherence was measured by the Medication Possession Ratio and those below 80% were classified as non-adherent. Results: In 2021, 246,718 patients (10.60% [95% CI: 10.48-10.72]) received antidepressants at a cost of €29 million. The median antidepressant cost per patient/year was €70.08€, ranging from €7.58 for amitriptyline to €396.66 for agomelatine. Out-of-pocket costs represented 6.09% of total expenditures, with a median copayment of €2.78 per patient. The 19.87% [95% CI 19.52-20.22)] of patients were non-adherent to antidepressants, costing €3.9 million (13.30% of total antidepressant costs). Non-adherence rates exceeded 20% for the tricyclic antidepressants, fluoxetine (23.53%), fluvoxamine (22.42%), and vortioxetine (20.58%). Venlafaxine (14.64%) and citalopram (14.88%) had the lowest non-adherence rates, of less than 15%. The median cost of non-adherent medications per patient/year was €18.96 and ranged from €2.50 (amitriptyline) to €133.42 (agomelatine). Conclusion: Reducing non-adherence to antidepressants is critical to improving clinical and economic outcomes. The implementation of interventions and standardized measures, including early detection indicators, is urgently needed. Antidepressants differ with regard to non-adherence and their cost, and this should be considered when prescribing this medication. The Medication Possession Ratio could be used by the healthcare provider and clinician to identify non-adherent patients for monitoring, and to take necessary corrective actions.

Self-perception of dual career barriers and athletic identity in student-athletes with disabilities according to disability type and level of professionalization.

The objective of this study was to analyze the perceived barriers to dual career success and athletic identity of student-athletes according to disability type and level of professionalization. The final sample consisted of 203 student-athletes with disabilities from five European countries. The questionnaires used were ESTPORT, EBBS and AIMS. Depending on disability type, it was found that student-athletes with hearing and physical impairment showed the highest difficulty in reconciling sports and studies (p = 0.001); that student-athletes with a hearing impairment showed the highest score in the barrier 'the cost of education is high' (p = 0.023); that student-athletes with a physical impairment had the highest scores in the barrier 'Exercise tires me' (p = 0.013); that student-athletes with cerebral palsy showed the highest scores in the barrier 'I do not have enough university/educational institution support' (p = 0.014) and 'Exercise facilities do not have convenient timetables for me' (p = 0.001). Depending on sports professionalization level, semi-professional student-athletes showed the highest values in the barrier 'the university/educational institution is far from my training center' (p = 0.040); while professional student-athletes had the highest score in the barrier 'exercise takes too much time from family responsibilities' (p = 0.034). In most of the variables related to identity as athletes, professional student-athletes showed the highest values, followed by semi-professional athletes (p = 0.043- < 0.001). In conclusion, the self-perception of barriers is quite relevant, with differences arising from disability type and level of professionalization, whereas the identity as an athlete is only different according to the level of professionalization.

Prevalence and cost of hospitalized patients with asymptomatic COVID-19 in 2020 in Spain.

Introduction: COVID-19 transmission has been characterized by the presence of asymptomatic patients. Additionally, most studies evaluating costs focus on symptomatic COVID-19 cases. Objective: To describe the prevalence, characteristics, and costs of asymptomatic COVID-19 cases at admission in Spanish hospitals in 2020. Methods: A nationwide study was performed, and data of hospitalized patients were collected of the Minimum Basic Data Set in Spain during 2020. Patients with COVID-19 codes as a primary and as a secondary diagnosis at admission were selected. Variables collected included age, sex, length of stay, in-hospital death, admission, length of stay and death in intensive care unit, mechanical ventilation and ventilatory assistance. COVID-19 related hospital costs were calculated using diagnosis-related groups from the Minimum Basic Data Set. Patients and costs were disaggregated by sex, age group, intensive care unit admission and epidemic wave (first or second) and main diagnosis. Results: A total of 14,742 patients were admitted with asymptomatic COVID-19 in Spanish hospitals representing 6.35% of all COVID-19 admitted patients. The total cost of admissions with asymptomatic COVID-19 was €105,933,677.6 with a mean cost per patient of €7,185.8 with higher mean cost in the first wave despite only 2.7% of cases were found during that time. Based on primary diagnosis, the higher number of cases of asymptomatic COVID-19 were found in "Pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium" followed by "diseases of the circulatory system". Conclusions: There was a high prevalence of asymptomatic cases during screening at admission process in Spanish hospitals in 2020. The highest number of cases was found among the group of "pregnancy, childbirth, and puerperium" followed by "diseases of the circulatory system." The higher costs might be due not only to the main pathology at admission but to the associated healthcare provisions needed in case of positive COVID-19 testing.

Increase in driving after cocaine use in Spain: a cross-sectional dataset analysis for 2021.

Objective: Driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs impairs skills essential for safe driving, increases the risk of being involved in a traffic accident and is particularly prevalent in Spain. The aim is to assess the prevalence of positive substance driving cases, what factors may be associated with driving after substance use, and the evolution of the progress in the prevalence of drug use among drivers in drivers based on the 2008, 2013, 2018, and 2021 studies. Study design and setting: The present study was conducted in a representative sample of Spanish drivers in 2021 for alcohol (breath) and psychoactive substances [oral fluid (OF)]. The sample size was 2980 drivers, mostly males (76.5%) with a mean age of 41.35 ± 13.34 years. Results: In 2021, 9.3% of drivers tested positive for alcohol and/or drugs. The presence of alcohol alone was observed in 4.2% of drivers, alcohol and another substance in 0.3%, a single drug in 4.4%, and two or drugs other than alcohol in 0.4%. Overall, cocaine cases were the highest registered in 2021 (2.4%), while cannabis (1.9%) and polydrug cases (0.7%) were the lowest, with respect to the 2008/2013/2018 studies. Conclusions: According to our research, in 2021, 9 out of 100 drivers were detected to have some substance in their system. This prevalence remains unacceptably high in Spain, with a marked increase in the frequency of driving after cocaine use. Further interventions and measures must be taken to avoid driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs.

Epidemiology of ataxia and hereditary spastic paraplegia in Spain: A cross-sectional study.

INTRODUCTION: Ataxia and hereditary spastic paraplegia are rare neurodegenerative syndromes. We aimed to determine the prevalence of these disorders in Spain in 2019. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional, multicentre, retrospective, descriptive study of patients with ataxia and hereditary spastic paraplegia in Spain between March 2018 and December 2019. RESULTS: We gathered data from a total of 1933 patients from 11 autonomous communities, provided by 47 neurologists or geneticists. Mean (SD) age in our sample was 53.64 (20.51) years; 938 patients were men (48.5%) and 995 were women (51.5%). The genetic defect was unidentified in 920 patients (47.6%). A total of 1371 patients (70.9%) had ataxia and 562 (29.1%) had hereditary spastic paraplegia. Prevalence rates for ataxia and hereditary spastic paraplegia were estimated at 5.48 and 2.24 cases per 100 000 population, respectively. The most frequent type of dominant ataxia in our sample was SCA3, and the most frequent recessive ataxia was Friedreich ataxia. The most frequent type of dominant hereditary spastic paraplegia in our sample was SPG4, and the most frequent recessive type was SPG7. CONCLUSIONS: In our sample, the estimated prevalence of ataxia and hereditary spastic paraplegia was 7.73 cases per 100 000 population. This rate is similar to those reported for other countries. Genetic diagnosis was not available in 47.6% of cases. Despite these limitations, our study provides useful data for estimating the necessary healthcare resources for these patients, raising awareness of these diseases, determining the most frequent causal mutations for local screening programmes, and promoting the development of clinical trials.

Environmental factors are associated to hospital outcomes in COVID-19 patients during lockdown and post-lockdown in 2020: A nationwide study.

OBJECTIVE: This study analyzed, at a postcode detailed level, the relation-ship between short-term exposure to environmental factors and hospital ad-missions, in-hospital mortality, ICU admission, and ICU mortality due to COVID-19 during the lockdown and post-lockdown 2020 period in Spain. METHODS: We performed a nationwide population-based retrospective study on 208,744 patients admitted to Spanish hospitals due to COVID-19 based on the Minimum Basic Data Set (MBDS) during the first two waves of the pandemic in 2020. Environmental data were obtained from Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service. The association was assessed by a generalized additive model. RESULTS: PM2.5 was the most critical environmental factor related to hospital admissions and hospital mortality due to COVID-19 during the lockdown in Spain, PM10, NO2, and SO2and also showed associations. The effect was considerably reduced during the post-lockdown period. ICU admissions in COVID-19 patients were mainly associated with PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and SO2 during the lockdown as well. During the lockdown, exposure to PM2.5 and PM10 were the most critical environmental factors related to ICU mortality in COVID-19. CONCLUSION: Short-term exposure to air pollutants impacts COVID-19 out-comes during the lockdown, especially PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and SO2. These pollutants are associated with hospital admission, hospital mortality and ICU admission, while ICU mortality is mainly associated with PM2.5 and PM10. Our findings reveal the importance of monitoring air pollutants in respiratory infectious diseases.

Quality indicators in the rational management of severe asthma: A Spanish multidisciplinary consensus.

AIM: Severe asthma is a complex, heterogeneous condition that can be difficult to control despite currently available treatments. Multidisciplinary severe asthma units (SAU) improve control in these patients and are cost-effective in our setting; however, their implementation and development can represent an organizational challenge. The aim of this study was to validate a set of quality care indicators in severe asthma for SAU in Spain. METHODS: The Carabela initiative, sponsored by SEPAR, SEAIC, SECA and SEDISA and implemented by leading specialists, analyzed the care processes followed in 6 pilot centers in Spain to describe the ideal care pathway for severe asthma. This analysis, together with clinical guidelines and SEPAR and SEAIC accreditation criteria for asthma units, were used to draw up a set of 11 quality of care indicators, which were validated by a panel of 60 experts (pulmonologists, allergologists, and health-policy decision-makers) using a modified Delphi method. RESULTS: All 11 indicators achieved a high level of consensus after just one Delphi round. CONCLUSIONS: Experts in severe asthma agree on a series of minimum requirements for the future optimization, standardization, and excellence of current SAUs in Spain. This proposal is well grounded on evidence and professional experience, but the validity of these consensus indicators must be evaluated in clinical practice.

Trends in the Use of Driving-Impairing Medicines According to the DRUID Category: A Population-Based Registry Study with Reference to Driving in a Region of Spain between 2015 and 2019.

The European DRUID (Drive Under the Influence of drugs, alcohol, and medicines) program classifies medications into three categories according to their effect on one's fitness to drive. The trend in the use of driving-impairing medicines (DIMs) in a region of Spain between 2015 and 2019 was analyzed through a population-based registry study. Pharmacy dispensing records for DIMs are provided. The use of DIMs on drivers was weighted according to the national driver's license census. The analysis was performed considering the population distribution by age and sex, treatment length, and the three DRUID categories. DIMs were used by 36.46% of the population and 27.91% of drivers, mainly chronically, with considerable daily use (8.04% and 5.34%, respectively). Use was more common in females than in males (42.28% vs. 30.44%) and increased with age. Among drivers, consumption decreases after 60 years of age for females and after 75 years of age for males. There was a 34% increase in the use of DIMs between 2015 and 2019, with a focus on daily use (>60%). The general population took 2.27 ± 1.76 DIMs, fundamentally category II (moderate influence on fitness to drive) (20.3%) and category III (severe influence on fitness to drive) (19.08%). The use of DIMs by the general population and drivers is significant and has increased in recent years. The integration of the DRUID classification into electronic prescription tools would assist physicians and pharmacists in providing adequate information to the patient about the effects of prescribed medications on their fitness to drive.

Genome skimming elucidates the evolutionary history of Octopoda.

Phylogenies for Octopoda have, until now, been based on morphological characters or a few genes. Here we provide the complete mitogenomes and the nuclear 18S and 28S ribosomal genes of twenty Octopoda specimens, comprising 18 species of Cirrata and Incirrata, representing 13 genera and all five putative families of Cirrata (Cirroctopodidae, Cirroteuthidae, Grimpoteuthidae, Opisthoteuthidae and Stauroteuthidae) and six families of Incirrata (Amphitretidae, Argonautidae, Bathypolypodidae, Eledonidae, Enteroctopodidae, and Megaleledonidae) which were assembled using genome skimming. Phylogenetic trees were built using Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian Inference with several alignment matrices. All mitochondrial genomes had the 'typical' genome composition and gene order previously reported for octopodiforms, except Bathypolypus ergasticus, which appears to lack ND5, two tRNA genes that flank ND5 and two other tRNA genes. Argonautoidea was revealed as sister to Octopodidae by the mitochondrial protein-coding gene dataset, however, it was recovered as sister to all other incirrate octopods with strong support in an analysis using nuclear rRNA genes. Within Cirrata, our study supports two existing classifications suggesting neither is likely in conflict with the true evolutionary history of the suborder. Genome skimming is useful in the analysis of phylogenetic relationships within Octopoda; inclusion of both mitochondrial and nuclear data may be key.

Economic Burden of the 2020 COVID-19 Hospitalizations in Spain.

This economic evaluation reports the total and per patient costs of inpatient care for COVID-19 in Spain in 2020.
