There are about 36633 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in France. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
Description of the long-term evolution of patients with von Willebrand disease and treated with Voncento® and of the hemostatic efficacy in the prevention and the treatment of non-surgical bleeding episodes and prevention of surgical bleeding during 2 years after patient inclusion.
In the context of COVID-19 pandemic, identifying low-risk patients who can be safely treated at home and high-risk patients requiring hospitalization or even intensive care is crucial for Emergency Departments. Thanks to a consensus of experts using the Delphi method, we previously defined the HOME-CoV rule. The HOME-CoV rule consists of 8 items precluding home treatment for patients consulting in the Emergency Department (ED) with confirmed or highly suspected mild to moderate COVID-19. It has been validated in a prospective study, patients with a negative rule having a very-low rate of invasive ventilation or death within the 7 days following ED presentation (HOME-CoV study, NCT: 02811237). Using logistic regression, we revised the HOME-CoV rule in order to define a score allowing. The revised HOME-CoV score comprises 7 criteria and, retrospectively assessed in the database of the HOME-CoV study, it exhibits promising performances. A revised HOME-CoV score < 2 had a sensitivity of 0.93 (0.84 to 0.98), a specificity of 0.60 (0.58 to 0.61) and negative predictive value of 1.00 (0.99 to 1.00); and a score > 4 had a sensitivity of 0.41 (0.28 to 0.54), a specificity of 0.93 (0.92 to 0.94) and a positive predictive value of 0.11 (0.07 to 0.16). The present study aims to prospectively validate the revised HOME-CoV score, firstly, in identifying a subgroup of COVID-19 patients with a low risk of evolution to severe COVID-19 and who could be safely treated at home. For this purpose, we will perform an interventional multicentric prospective pragmatic cohort study with implementation of the revised HOME-CoV score to triage COVID-19 patients.
Recent studies show that patients who have contracted COVID-19 retain very significant fatigue after resolving the infectious episode. This fatigue may be explained by low-grade inflammation. There is more data for patients with COVID-19 who have been hospitalized than for non-hospitalized patients with milder forms. However, COVID-19 related fatigue would not only affect elderly people with severe cardiopulmonary consequences but also young subjects without severities. This notion is not very widespread and to date, COVID contracted by young subjects is considered to have very few consequences on their health. It is also known that the prevalence of sleep debt is significant in the general population and particularly in young people, and it is also known that sleep deprivation increases low-grade inflammation and facilitates the risk of viral contamination. The association between sleep deprivation, drowsiness and possibly low-grade inflammation raise questions about the mechanisms of fatigue in the general population. Investigators are also entitled to wonder to what extent the chronic sleep debt suffered by the French population can explain an increased risk of contamination by COVID 19 but also significant residual fatigue after COVID infection. Bordeaux University Hospital screens 2,000 subjects per day at risk of being infected by COVID, it would be very interesting to measure, in a population of young adults aged 18-45 years, frequently exposed to a sleep debt, sleep hygiene (bedtime and wake-up times, sleep and wake-up schedules, and overall sleep satisfaction), average sleep duration, level of fatigue and drowsiness and to compare these thresholds between subjects with or without COVID 19 according to nasopharyngeal PCR.
The vaccination policy is drawn up in France by the French Minister of Health, who makes public the vaccination schedule after the opinion of the High Authority of Health. Currently according to the 2019 immunization schedule, the dTP vaccine is the only mandatory in the general population with recalls in adults aged 25, 45, 65 and every 10 years. In 2011, the Ministry of Health estimated that only 50.5% of the general population was up to date against dTP. Two vaccines are recommended for person at risk of infection according to the current vaccine schedule: the flu vaccine and the pneumococcal vaccine. In fact, influenza and pneumococcal disease are more frequent and more serious in patients with chronic diseases (diabetes, cardiac insufficiency..) compared to the general population. The vaccination coverage rate of at-risk populations is dramatically below the vaccination coverage targets set by the Ministry of Health. Indeed, there are many barriers to vaccination, medical and para-medical barriers, but also individual barriers. The current COVID-19 pandemic has identified people at risk of severe infection and death risk, particularly those with co-morbidities (diabetes, cardiovascular disease, etc.). Thus, this pandemic may have contributed to change in patients' perceptions regarding both the risk of infection and the potential interest and benefit of vaccination.
Chronic low back leads to a significant socio-economic burden. It is associated with physical and psychosocial deconditioning. Even a short "nature experience" has positive effects on the affective and cognitive factors involved in chronic pain. In the brain, the anterior cingulate cortex plays an important role in both pain and emotions. Exposure to a natural environment may decrease activation of the anterior cingulate cortex. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of therapeutic horticulture on the decrease of activation of the anterior cingulate cortex in people with chronic low back pain participating in 2 sessions of 90 minutes of therapeutic horticulture and 2 sessions of 90 minutes of handiwork. The investigators hypothesize that therapeutic horticulture may reduce the activation of the anterior cingulate cortex. The effects of therapeutic horticulture may be mediated through the double exposure to both nature and physical activity.
Vertebral osteomyelitis is an infection of the intervertebral disk and adjacent vertebral plates with a non-negligible risk of neurological complications and handicap. If there are clear recommendations dealing with antibiotic therapy and surgery indications for this pathogen, the question of the immobilization will be remaining debate. The aim of the study was to describe protocols and practices for the immobilization of vertebral osteomyelitis in different French hospitals and bone and joint infections Centers. The secondary objectives were to evaluate the frequency of neurological complications in a large prospective cohort, and to identify clinical and imaging risk factors for neurological complications. The investigators also aim to search for association between type and duration of spine immobilization and neurological status at the end of follow-up.
The prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases has not yet been widely reported, and has been evaluated only in symptomatic patient samples. The proportion of asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic patients is unknown, in patients who share common symptoms with CoV-2-SARS infection. Our objective is to describe the prevalence of seroconversion to CoV-2-SARS by consecutive screening in routine care of patients with chronic inflammatory rheumatism with serological testing
In this ancillary study on the FoxTreg cohort, the study investigators will select variables to input and thus develop two models (Linear Discriminant Analysis and Decision Tree). The aim of this study is to validate the method in terms of repeatability, reproducibility, control of pre-analytical conditions and sample conservation, to complete the screening of IgA glycosylation in individuals of the FoxTreg cohort and to refine the glycopeptide signature to predict renal involvement.
Prostate cancer is the first cancer amongst men with more than 50000 cases per year in France. Surgical, radiation, frost, or ultrasound induced rectourethral fistula is a rare complication (<1%) of localized prostatic cancer treatment but hard to manage. Different types of treatment exist: conservatory, trans-sphinteric (York-Masson), transanal, perineal, with or without muscle flap interposition. Gracilis flap interposition for rectourethral fistula management is a promising technique but few cases are described and functional results are scarce. The aim of this study is to present surgical and functional outcomes of rectourethral fistulas surgery with gracilis flap interposition after treatment of localized prostate cancer.
LASIK is a refractive surgery technique widely used in France. Postoperatively, the classic treatment after LASIK consists of instilling drops to reduce dry eyes. REPADROP® is an innovative eye drops stimulating corneal innervation. To date no study has quantified the improvement in dry eye syndrome and thus the quality of life of patients using REPADROP®.
