RESUMO
Coronary sinus reducer implantation is a percutaneous technique creating a narrowing in the coronary sinus through the implantation of an hourglass-shaped endoprosthesis. It is proposed to reduce symptoms in patients suffering from refractory angina pectoris. This innovative treatment is experiencing a major craze among interventional cardiologists. It is associated with very high procedural success rates. Complications are rare and include coronary sinus dissection or perforation and migration of the device. This review exposes the device implantation technique, the potential anatomical difficulties, the tips and tricks to overcome challenging situations. It also focuses on the prevention and management of potential complications.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: Young people's exposure to online pornographic material has increased in the past years. Its impact is a complex topic but an important issue due to growing concerns. Therefore, we reviewed the literature on Internet pornography consumption and its impact on children and adolescents. Furthermore, we examined young people's thoughts about pornography and their reasons for consumption. METHOD: We performed a systematic literature search in the online databases ERIC, PsycARTICLES, PsycINFO, and PSYNDEX for peer-reviewed articles in English, published between 2000 and 2022 and additionally identified secondary references. RESULTS: We could determine associations between pornography consumption and demographic variables (e.g., age, gender), personal characteristics (e.g., [sexual] sensation seeking, sexual interest and experience, general risk behavior), environmental variables (e.g., peers, family), attitudes (e.g., gender role attitudes, permissive sexual attitudes), behavior (e.g. sexual risk behaviour, sexting) and sexual aggression (e.g., sexual cybervictimization, grooming). Moreover, we found that girls have a more negative attitude towards pornography than boys who have an ambivalent opinion on the subject. Most adolescents are aware that the majority of pornographic material is exaggerated and unrealistic. Furthermore, pornography is not only watched out of curiosity and for sexual arousal but also used as a source of sexual information, especially by minority groups. DISCUSSION: Many effects that impair children's development have been documented. The results found in this review are often contradictory. Therefore, further replication studies are needed. In addition, we propose several preventive measures, e.g., sexual health education at schools for both heterosexuals and LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender) people.
RESUMO
Coronary sinus Reducer implantation is a percutaneous technique used to treat patients suffering from refractory angina pectoris. The device narrows the coronary sinus, increases the back pressure in the myocardial venous system and forces redistribution of coronary blood flow from less ischemic subepicardium to the more ischemic subendocardium. Multiple clinical studies had proven its efficacy to alleviate myocardial ischemia and related symptoms, and to improve the quality of life of patients with refractory symptomatic chronic coronary artery disease for whom coronary revascularization is deemed unsuitable. This literature review aims to expose the device design, its mechanisms of action, and the clinical data supporting its use. Since November 2021 Reducer's reimbursement has been granted in France by the national health authority. It is the first device to be approved under a newly established reimbursement approval process. A transitional coverage is provided with opportunities for renewal before applying for full-time reimbursement. To fulfill the requirements of the National Commission for Evaluation of Medical Devices and Health Technologies, the French Society of Cardiology has been creating the France Reducer registry. This clinical registry has been collecting data from patients undergoing coronary sinus Reducer implantation regarding their clinical situation, periprocedural information, and one-year follow-up. It is crucial for the future of this emerging therapeutic option in France. To date, 215 patients from 28 centers have been included between June 2022 and September 2023.

The idea of applying various forms of physical activity for the betterment of physical health and the reduction of chronic medical conditions is ubiquitous. Despite evidence of successful applications of physical activity for improvement of mental health dating back to antiquity, it has until recent years remained unconventional to consider exercise as an intervention strategy for various mental health conditions. The past two decades, however, have seen a relative explosion of interest in understanding and applying various programs and forms of exercise to improve mental health. Here, our purpose is to provide a comprehensive and updated overview of the application of exercise as a strategy for improving mental health. In the present paper we first summarize contemporary research regarding short- and long-term impacts of exercise on mental health. Then an overview of the putative mechanisms and neurobiological bases underpinning the beneficial effects of exercise is provided. Finally, we suggest directions for future research as well as a series of concrete recommendations for clinicians who wish to prescribe physical activity as part of patient mental health management.

OBJECTIVE: In this study, we aim to review the current evidence of Food is Medicine interventions on diabetes outcomes among low-income or food-insecure individuals. METHODS: Seven databases were searched from January 1, 2000 to October 26, 2021 for full-text articles written in English. The studies included experimental studies of any duration and design which addressed the effect of Food is Medicine interventions on fruit and vegetable (F&V) intake and glycated hemoglobin (A1C) levels among low-income or food-insecure populations with prediabetes or diabetes of any age group. Only direction of effect of interventions on F&V intake were ascertained due to high variability in outcome measurement. A1C results were pooled using generic inverse variance with a fixed-effects model. Heterogeneity was assessed using Cochran's Q and quantified by I2. RESULTS: Sixteen studies were included. Five of the 8 studies reported a significant increase in F&V intake. Seven of the 14 studies reported a significant decrease in A1C levels. A meta-analysis of 5 randomized controlled trials (n=843) resulted in clinically meaningful reductions in A1C compared with control (mean difference, -0.47%; 95% confidence interval, -0.66 to -0.29, I2=88%, p<0.0001). Half (n=8) of the studies have a high risk of bias due to missing data, detection bias, and confounding. CONCLUSIONS: Food is Medicine interventions are effective in increasing F&V intake and reducing A1C levels of the target population. More randomized controlled studies are needed to validate the results.

This literature review focuses on tactile interactions between parents and their infants. Research on the dyad has explored both cultural differences in touch and the relationship between touch style and hormonal secretion in both parents. The few studies that have examined this communicative modality within the triad have investigated the frequency and type of parent-infant touch, as well as the effect of skin-to-skin contact on tactile interactions at three months postpartum.

Low dose aspirin is an efficient antiplatelet agent to decrease the risk of occlusive arterial events, however it is not infallible. Aspirin resistance describe its inability to block the formation of thromboxane A2 in platelets and/or to produce an inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation. Detection of aspirin resistance relies on the results of various platelet function tests or on blood and urinary thromboxane metabolites concentrations, but these methods show very low correlation and reproducibility. Moreover, light-transmission aggregometry using arachidonic acid, known as the reference functional assay, requires technical expertise. The incidence rate of aspirin resistance amoung populations suffering from cardiovascular diseases is about 25%, however there is a wide variability depending on the specificity of the used test and the clinical features of the considered population. Aspirin resistance is associated with the recurrence of arterial occlusive events: the odds ratio is about 4 all tests combined, therefore it could be considered as a risk marker. Evidence is lacking regarding the relevance of these tests to resort an intensification of the antithrombotic treatment, and experts recommend to reserve their use for high-risk situations. Nevertheless several studies have explored the effect of dose increases or intake frequency increases, and revealed encouraging results regarding pharmacodynamic endpoints. The reasons for aspirin resistance are numerous, often remain debate, and can accumulate to result in poor response to aspirin.

Although indispensable, radiation exposure during cardiac catheterization procedures can cause specific radiation-induced diseases. These affect the patient but also the interventional cardiologist. Exposure to high or repeated radiation doses causes deterministic effects. Moreover, even low-dose exposure, especially when repeated, produces a risk of stochastic effets. In that respect, it is crucial to improve the radiation safety of cardiac angiography and interventions, to promote radiation protection and to maintain this exposure « As Low As Reasonably Achievable ¼. Thus, there is a necessity to spread knowledge about safety standards and recommandations to reduces the dose among interventionalists. Data collection and comparaison of practices are precious to this quality improvement process. For the year 2020, France-PCI registry had collected dosimetric datas related to 55 783 coronary angiographic and interventional procedures from 30 centers in France. Mean fluoroscopy time was 4,4 minutes for diagnostic procedures. Mean PDS was 1 767cGy.Cm2 and mean Air Kerma de 257Gy. Coronary percutaneous angioplasty procedures were related to approximately two to three times higher mean exposures. Mean exposure related to chronic coronary total occlusion treatment procedures was also two times higher than exposure related to non-CTO interventions. These data also highlighted wide disparities between centers.

BACKGROUND: We aimed to describe and discuss the algorithms used to identify chronic inflammatory rheumatisms and psoriasis in medico-administrative databases. METHODS: We performed a literature review on the Medline database of articles published up to 31 January 2018. Our inclusion criteria were: original articles using medico-administrative databases in accordance with the International Classification of Diseases, version 10 (ICD-10) and concerning rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or ankylosing spondylitis (AS) or psoriatic arthritis (PsoA) or Psoriasis (Pso). Our exclusion criteria were: letters to the editor, commentaries on published articles, studies using codes other than those of the ICD or a previous version. RESULTS: Out of the 590 articles identified, 37 studies were included. Concerning RA (n=10), all studies used the M05 code, associated with the M06 code in six studies. The remaining four studies specifically targeted codes M06.0, M06.2, M06.3, M06.8, M06.9, and two of them also used code M12.3. For AS (n=8), 7 studies used the M45 code, while only one study used M45.9, M46.1 or M46.8. For Pso (n=17), all studies used the L40 code and/or at least two dispensations of vitamin D. Concerning PsoA (n=13), all studies used the same codes: M07.0, M07.1, M07.2, M07.3. CONCLUSION: We recommend using codes M05 and M06 rather than M06.1 and M06.4 for RA, M45 for AS, the algorithm L40 and/or two dispensations of topical vitamin D for psoriasis, and codes M070 to M073 to identify PsoA patients in medico-administrative databases.

More and more cancer patients around the world are using complementary and alternative medicine. They are mostly used as a complement to conventional care in decreasing the side effects of treatment and improving their quality of life. However, patients often use them without reporting it to their oncologists; the main reasons being the short duration of consultation and the fact that their oncologists do not support them due to a lack of scientific evidence. There are hundreds of them, some of which are now being used in French healthcare institutions as supportive care. The randomized controlled trial is the gold standard of evidence-based medicine, which is why we have carried out an overview of randomized controlled trials carried out around the world on alternative and complementary medicine.

OBJECTIVES: Obesity is a well-known caesarean and obstetrical risk factor. However, the number of obese nulliparous women is increasing worldwide, creating an urgent need for research into the impact of obesity on the mode of delivery. Our objective was to identify caesarean risk factors in obese nulliparous women with a BMI (body mass index) greater than 40kg/m2. METHODS: A literature review was conducted on PubMed; including articles published between 2009 and 2019 in French and English, on caesarean risk during labor among class III obese nulliparous women. RESULTS: One prospective study, and 6 retrospective analyses were included. Their results suggest that the rate of caesarean delivery increases with the BMI. Maternal age, particularly after 35 years, as well as induced labor and the use of oxytocin during labor, were positively associated with cesarean delivery. Moreover, maternal BMI was linked to an increased risk of non-elective caesarean section due to non-reassuring fetal heart tracing. CONCLUSION: Extreme BMI, age, induced labor and oxytocin use are associated with caesarean delivery in nulliparous women with BMI≥40kg/m2. Further research are needed to estimate the best candidates for elective cesarean delivery.

During the last decade there has been a craze for the percutaneous edge-to-edge mitral valve repair technique with the Mitra-Clip device. This is an alternative treatment to mitral valve surgery for severe mitral regurgitation. In France, this device is aimed at poor candidates for mitral valve surgery. It involves intra-cardiac prosthetic material, which exposes them to the risk of bacterial endocarditis. The consequences of this infective disease can be dramatic, especially for these old patients who suffer from multiple comorbidities. It appears to be a rare but relatively unknown and potentially underestimated complication. The relative data remain scarce and consist of rare case-reports. We report an original case of a Methicilline-sensitive Staphylococcus epidermidis mitral endocarditis following the implantation of clips two months earlier. The patient was then successfully treated with antibiotics. Since the first Mitra-Clip implantation in 2003, only 19 cases of endocarditis have previously been reported. This article proposes a review of theses case-reports and a collection of their relevant clinical, echocardiographic and microbiological characteristics, the delivered therapies and their outcomes. These data contribute to a humble discussion around the main stakes of the disease, which are the prevention, the diagnosis, the involved bacteria's type, the prognosis and the treatments with a focus on the question of the recourse to surgical management.

BACKGROUND: Early childhood caries represent a major public health problem. In addition to their individual impact, the massive social inequalities in oral health that are at the roots and result from the disease have largely underestimated consequences for the child, his family and the community. In response to the question of "how and where to act?", this scoping review identifies the individual characteristics associated with the disease on which it would be possible to act, using appropriate prevention strategies. METHODS: This scoping review is aimed at describing and analyzing available data in the literature on the different factors associated with early childhood caries. RESULTS: The predictors of early childhood caries are represented by mediating (knowledge, attitudes and parents' oral health practices) and moderating (psychosocial parameters, parental health literacy and alcohol consumption) factors. Twenty-eight articles fulfilled the selection criteria, twenty of which studied mediators related to early childhood caries, and fourteen of which dealt with moderators. The lower the parents' level of knowledge and literacy in oral health, the higher a child's dmft index. Additional studies are needed to assess the role of psychosocial parameters. CONCLUSION: Parents' knowledge and oral health literacy are the key predictors to be preferentially targeted in view of reducing social inequalities in health through actions undertaken on a local scale. The prevention of early childhood caries necessitates a combination of generic and targeted interventions.

The aim of the present paper is to systematically review all available literature on preradiotherapy high uptake areas (hotspots) as a potential target for dose escalation in different tumour sites, and to understand the potential role and limitations of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron-emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in this context. An electronic database (Medline) search was conducted to identify articles reporting on a correlation between high tracer uptake on pretreatment PET and preferential sites of local recurrence after radiotherapy. Search was limited to English language. No date range limitation was applied. Among 45 studies initially identified, nine series matching with inclusion criteria have finally been retained from the literature after reviewing (5 retrospective and 4 prospective). Primary tumour locations were head-neck (n=2), lung (n=4), oesophageal (n=2) and rectal (n=1) areas. Overlaps between FDG hotspot on preradiotherapy PET/CT and site of local recurrence on post-treatment scan showed good to excellent agreement. Only studies on head-neck cancer reported moderate agreement probably explained by the lack of reproducibility of the patients positioning between pre- and post-treatment FDG-PET/CT; and by the rigid registration process of images limited by post-therapeutic changes that highly affect anatomical landmarks. FDG hotspot-guided radiotherapy may allow dose escalation in respecting a robust methodology (treatment position, co-registration method, four-dimensional PET).

AIM: Over the last two decades teledermatology has become one of the most widely used applications in telemedicine. Wide-ranging medico-economic evaluations are necessary to facilitate its deployment. "Accurate and measurable" indicators must be defined in order to enable high-quality assessments to be performed. The objective of this study is to identify all indicators allowing evaluation of teledermatology procedures and to assess the relevance and results thereof. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A literature search until September 2017 was conducted in PubMed using the following MeSH search terms: "telemedicine", "dermatology" and "quality improvement". RESULTS: The search identified 372 articles, of which 127 were included. Fourteen indicators were identified and split into 4 categories: processes indicators, quality indicators, cost indicators and satisfaction indicators. Reliability of diagnosis was the most widely evaluated indicator (49 studies). It was good overall compared to conventional consultations. Costs were generally reduced. Due to the absence of a validated measuring tool, it was difficult to compare the results for certain indicators, particularly satisfaction, and thus to make any generalizations. CONCLUSION: Teledermatology is a promising tool. Its deployment must be adapted to the various needs in the field and achievement of this goal requires consultation with patients and with the different healthcare professionals involved. Its evaluation must also be specific to each terrain and must employ standardized measuring instruments.

OBJECTIVES: Clinical heterogeneity during euthymic states is a crucial issue in bipolar disorders. Indeed, actual data are not sufficient to understand why some patients are unharmed by subthreshold symptoms and have functional impairments whereas others have a functional remission but have subthreshold symptoms. Based on the Ball model, cognitive and schematic vulnerability interact with genetic vulnerability and trigger affective symptoms with the intervention of stressful life events. Furthermore, according to this model, adjustment and adaptation to illness assessed by functional outcome and illness experience are associated with this cognitive and schematic vulnerability. So, theoretical arguments support that childhood adversity and temperamental deregulation characterize patients with bipolar disorders. Thus, the aim of this study is to systematically review studies of Early Maladaptive Schemas in bipolar disorder, to determine whether Early Maladaptive Schemas have specificity in bipolar disorder in comparison with other populations, and to identify which Early Maladaptive Schemas could be activated. The challenge of this review is to identify if the taking of early maladaptive schemas into account could allow us to better identify, understand and manage bipolar disorders. METHODS: This systematic review was led according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic review and Meta-Analysis statement on the electronic databases Cochrane, PsycArticles, Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection, PsycInfo, PubMed, ScienceDirect and Scopus with « early maladaptive schemas ¼ AND « bipolar disorder ¼ as keywords. Only studies meeting eligibility criteria concerning publication status, language, population and outcomes were included after several screenings on basis of title, abstract and full-text. Then, we carried out data extraction in accordance with criteria defined in principle (about characteristics of participants, objectives, materiel and methods, principle results and bias). RESULTS: Among 39 records identified, a total of 10 studies met eligibility criteria for inclusion in this review. Synthesizing findings across the studies revealed three important topics. First, early maladaptive schemas appear as potential cognitive characteristics that clinicians have to investigate in clinical practice. Indeed, patients with bipolar disorders present greater activation of the early maladaptive schemas in comparison with people who have no disorder. This point supports the first part of Ball's theoretical model that considers schemas as a vulnerability to bipolarity. Secondly, early maladaptive schemas are relevant to distinguish bipolar disorders from unipolar depression and borderline personality disorder. A greater and a lower activation are respectively identified among bipolar disorders. Thirdly, supporting the second part of Ball's model, early maladaptive schemas play a key role in recovery regarding their impact on the course of bipolarity, in particular on suicidality and functional impairment. Finally, these dysfunctional schemas allow us to understand the clinical heterogeneity of bipolar disorder, and among others, about the type of bipolarity. These results have several implications, but there are some limits in this systematic review. First, no French study has been done. Then, reduced sample sizes in these studies increased the risk to conclude wrongly to an activation difference between groups. Furthermore, probably due to the variety of methods and populations, we could not identify an homogeneous pattern of early activated maladaptive schemas. Overall, scientific approaches used in these studies are based on statistical models using mean and standard deviation. These types of statistical analyses are the main limit because they cannot represent the heterogeneity of early maladaptive schemas profiles. CONCLUSIONS: Schema theory proves to be a relevant approach in bipolar disorders, and early maladaptive schemas appear to be important to take into account in clinical practice. Nevertheless, in order to propose schemas therapy appropriately, it is necessary to specify if early maladaptive schemas are activated and to specify therapeutic indications because of clinical heterogeneity. Moreover, data do not yet allow us to understand the disparity of profiles during the inter-episode period. Indeed, a French research perspective is being considered that will prefer a person-oriented approach.

Complementary and alternative medicines (CAMs) play more and more a significant role both in France and all over the world. Yet, their definition and their role in cancer treatments legitimately raise concerns. This article aims at establishing a picture of the CAMs admitted by the French Medical Board as well as those which are new or in common medical practices in France. We start with a brief reminder of their origin, their status and how they are used. Then, we review the literature about some of the best clinical trials using CAMs in cancer patients. To finish, we try to understand what makes CAMs so thrilling, but also why they create controversy and which common points they may have with conventional medicine.

Studies of adolescent suicide screening tools have increased with the development of questionnaires that can be used in paediatric emergency departments. This article proposes a literature review of the acceptability of such interventions. Although these tools are well accepted when they are systematized, their usefulness is determined by the availability of child psychiatric care with the right balance between the adolescent's confidentiality and parental involvement.

Migration is an experience with a creative and dynamic potential, but it can also serve to further isolate people. Migrant adolescents and ethnic minorities with a migrant background are particularly vulnerable to suicidal ideation and suicidal behaviour. International studies show a significant prevalence of suicide attempts among migrants and their children. Intergenerational conflicts and the family environment, for example poor communication and lack of parental support, are risk factors for suicidal behaviour in migrant adolescents. The valorisation of the culture of origin could contribute to the feeling of 'cultural continuity' which is a protective factor of the suicidal risk.
