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.

From 10% to 30% of patients hospitalized with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) are readmitted within 30 days of discharge. These readmissions have negative consequences for the patients and the hospitals where they are treated, including impaired quality of life, exposure to hospital-related adverse events, and increased resource utilization. Risk-adjusted readmission rates can be easily computed and tracked from computerized hospital discharge data, using validated models. As part of the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program (HRRP) effective in fiscal year 2013, United States hospitals with higher than expected 30-day readmission rates after pneumonia hospitalization have been subject to financial penalties from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The underlying logic of the HRRP is based upon the notion that short-term readmission is often a preventable adverse outcome, reflecting suboptimal quality of care during index hospitalization. Yet, published evidence suggests that less than one in four all-cause readmissions are deemed avoidable. Because only avoidable readmissions can be influenced by interventions designed to decrease readmission rates, avoidable readmission is a more relevant metric than all-cause readmission for tracking quality of hospital care for pneumonia. The purpose of this study is to develop an administrative data-based risk prediction model for identifying potentially avoidable readmissions within 30 days of discharge for patients hospitalized with CAP. R3P is a retrospective observational cohort study of consecutive adult patients discharged from two hospitals with a diagnosis code of CAP. Data sources include routinely collected hospital discharge data and retrospective chart reviews.
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the prevalence of the following psychiatric pathologies (based on the MINI5.0.0 questionnaire) among 3 groups of women (Leiden versus aP1Ab-positive versus thrombophilia-negative) with similar obstetrical histories 10 years after their initial assessment/diagnosis. - Mood disorders, including depressive episodes during the previous two weeks, recurrent depressive disorders at any point in life, dysthymia in the last two years, or any current or past manic episode; - Anxiety disorders, including current agoraphobia, current panic disorders, agoraphobia with panic disorders, current social phobia, generalized anxiety in the last 6 months, or current posttraumatic stress syndrome; - Apparent psychotic syndromes, including isolated or recurrent psychotic syndromes, past or present (clinically validated), - Current alcohol or drug problems (dependence or abuse).
The goal of this study is to describe the increase in plasma serotonin or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in patient with increased severity of aortic stenosis and increased weight cardiac muscle.
Herpes zoster and post herpetic pain are common causes of morbidity in the elderly. Herpes zoster is caused by reactivation of the virus varicella zoster of latent infection in sensory ganglia. The acute phase of herpes zoster usually occurs ≤ 30 days after rash onset. However, the most common complication of herpes zoster is the post herpetic pain, which is usually defined as a persistent chronic pain for ≥ 3 months after rash onset. The risk of herpes zoster in life is 25-30%, but this figure rises to 50% among those aged ≥ 85 years. Similarly, the risk of experiencing post herpetic pain increases with age. Despite treatment with antiviral drugs, post herpetic pain has been reported in 10-20% of all patients with herpes zoster, but its incidence increases significantly in elderly patients over 60 years. It can be particularly harmful when it occurs on a particular field, elderly multiple pathologies, fragile and with multiple treatment. In this context of decompensation "cascade" greatly exacerbate the impact of the initial local disease. Ophthalmologic involvement is rare but clinically worrisome and generates significant costs.
The purpose of this study is to study the role of closing volume as a determinant of orthopnea in stable obese subjects. The investigators hypothesized that: (1) increase in closing volume in supine position would be greater in orthopneic than in non-orthopneic subjects, and (2) the relationship of change in closing volume to change in dyspnea with position would be dependent on expiratory flow limitation in the sitting position. In stable obese subjects, in sitting and supine positions, the investigators measured Borg dyspnea score, static lung volumes, expiratory flow limitation, and single-breath nitrogen expiration test, from which the investigators determined closing volume and closing capacity, slope of phase III, and opening capacity. Orthopnea was defined as any increase in the Borg score in the supine position from its value in the sitting position
Evolution of medical care for patients with cystic fibrosis appeared in recent years: prolongation of life expectancy with consequently increased comorbidities and the use of lung transplantation, systematic neonatal screening of new born since 2002, prescription of expensive new molecules or new presentation. This evolution justifies to realize an update of statistics of costs of care and to assess adherence to treatment
The Epilepsy Patient Education (EPE) is very important for the comprehension of the disease and its management. The EPE allows patients and caregivers to acquire together some autonomy and some skills that will help them live better with the disease.The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of a program of educational activities (EA) on the quality of life of epileptic patients measured by the validated scale Quality Of Life in Epilepsy -31 (QOLIE-31).Investigators hope a difference in improving the quality of life score of 25% between the 2 groups.
Urinary tract infection due to Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing enterobacteriaceae (E-ESBL UTI) become a frequent problem. A too large variety in the prescription of antibiotics for E-ESBL UTI in children and absolute recommendations regarding the optimal treatment of E-ESBL is nearly impossible at this time. Our aim was to describe the characteristics and treatments of urinary tract infections caused by Extended spectrum betalactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in children.
This study will compare safety, efficacy, and tolerability of a two drug regimen of dolutegravir (DTG) plus (+) lamivudine (3TC) administered once daily with DTG plus two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (tenofovir disoproxil fumarate [TDF]/emtricitabine [FTC] fixed dose combination [FDC]) administered once daily in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) 1 infected adult participants that have not previously received antiretroviral therapy. The study is designed to demonstrate the non inferior antiviral activity of DTG + 3TC regimen to that of DTG + TDF/FTC FDC and will characterise the long term antiviral activity, tolerability and safety of DTG plus 3TC through Week 148. Approximately, 700 participants will be randomised 1:1 to receive DTG + 3TC or DTG + TDF/FTC FDC. Participants will be stratified by screening HIV 1 ribonucleotide nucleic acid (RNA) levels and by screening CD4+ (cluster of differentiation 4) cell count.
