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.
Objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs) have recently been incorporated in the French medical studies. They will soon be an important part of the national evaluation of the students, therefore being responsible for a high level of stress. The differents strategies of coping have never been characterized for this particular group of students. We hypothetize that different strategies of coping are associated with different level of stress, thus being an interesting insight to help students to deal with their stress and prevent disorders linked to stress. We will be using the Brief Cope Scale to assess the different ways of coping, in addition to multiple demographic and health-related questionnaires.
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of a pneumococcal 21-valent conjugate vaccine (V116) in persons living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), for the prevention of pneumococcal disease caused by the serotypes in the vaccine.
The objective of this study was to determine whether there was an association between the resilience of anesthesia professionals in the operating room of the Grenoble University Hospital and perceived work-related stress.
Stress and rumination are linked with the development of many mental disorders. The ECOSTRESS study has shown that poor OSCE performance has a positive effect on the occurence of state-rumination among 4th year medicine students in the context of mock exams. The goal of IMSR study is to assess the effectiveness of a post-OSCE meditation intervention to decrease psychological stress and rumination.
To look for the factors of exposure present prior to the onset of Porto-Sinusoidal Vascular Disease (PSVD) and which can lead to the occurrence of PSVD after renal transplantation, and therefore to consider the identification of risk factors, in order to prevent or detect early signs of portal hypertention in predisposed patients and improve their prognosis.
Various studies have shown that many patients do not understand all the information provided by the study investigator and by the information sheet before entering a clinical research protocol. Many materials has been developped in previous research, trying to improve patients' understanding. Nonetheless, their effectiveness remains uncertain. The "LUMINA" project aims to measure the effectiveness of the booklet named "Comprendre les essais cliniques" with patients included or not included in clinical trials within the Clinical Neurosciences - Rheumatology pole of the CHU de Nice. The design of this study is "before/after". A questionnaire was submitted to the patients before and after reading the booklet. That method is used in order to show if there was a difference between the score obtained from the questionnaire before and after reading. This difference could reflect an improvement in patients' comprehension and, by extension, the effectiveness of the support the team developed.
The aims of this study will be to identify the clinical characteristics, the management and the outcomes of acute kidney injury in patients with cirrhosis worldwide. Specific aims: 1. To establish the severity of AKI across different regions 2. To identify precipitants of AKI across different centers 3. To identify the phenotypes of AKI across different centers 4. To evaluate differences in the management of AKI across different centers and their impact on clinical outcomes 5. To assess outcomes of acute kidney injury (resolution of AKI, in-hospital mortality, 28-day mortality, 90-day mortality)
The Radiologically Isolated Syndrome (RIS) is defined as incidental Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) abnormalities fulfil the criteria for dissemination in space, suggestive of multiple sclerosis. Nowadays, mandatory vaccination in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) is widely recommended. Regarding COVID19, the absence of specific warnings led to the proposal of vaccination in patients with inflammatory diseases of the central nervous system. We aimed to evaluate if COVID19 vaccination or infection increased the risk of clinical conversion to multiple sclerosis or evidence of disease activity (EDA) in a cohort of RIS subjects.
The radiotherapy treatment plan (also called dosimetry) used for all treatment sessions is based on the dosimetric scanner. During the sessions, the anatomy of the breast may vary, and these variations may impact the quality of the treatment. Adaptive radiotherapy is a new technique that allows these changes to be taken into account during treatment by automatically rescheduling the treatment for each session. The proposed trial aims to clinically evaluate one of these adaptive radiotherapy tools (PreciseART) based on deformable registration in order to determine if it can be used in daily practice in the treatment of breast cancer by tomotherapy. The trial will also clarify whether factors, such as duration of treatment, impact the quality of this algorithm.
