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.
A multicentre, international case-control study to develop a biobank of sera from 150 cases of serotype III GBS disease and associated clinical information from seven countries (Malawi, Uganda, UK, the Netherlands, Italy and France), with 3:1 (450) serotype matched healthy controls.
Although epidemiological studies have associated the consumption of sugary beverages with adverse health effects, experimental studies have demonstrated that the metabolic response of the human body to fruit juice as compared to artificial beverages is substantially different. Fruit juices do not just provide sugars and related calories, but they are rich sources of bioactive compounds especially of flavonoids. Flavanones constitute a class of flavonoids that are specifically and abundantly found in citrus fruits, with hesperidin being the major compound in orange. From prospective cohort studies, higher intakes of flavanones are associated with a lower incidence of mortality by cardiovascular disease (CVD). This relation is supported by results from a number of animal studies demonstrating a slowdown in atherosclerosis development and vascular protective effects in dietary interventions with flavanones. Randomized, controlled clinical trials to corroborate the suggested vasculo-protective effects of orange juice presumably mediated by the flavanones are scarce and available data do not allow to draw firm conclusions about their efficacy. To fill this gap, the "HESPER-HEALTH study" conducted in humans will assess the vascular protective effects of 100% orange juice consumption and evaluate the contribution of hesperidin in these effects.
Marie Lannelongue Hospital is a hospital specialized in lung transplantation. Lung transplant patients require regular check-ups by bronchial fibroscopy. This examination is known to be anxious, stressful and sometimes painful. These patients take many medications (immunosuppressants, antibiotics....) that may interact with analgesic or anxiolytic drugs. The objective is to propose to HML lung transplant patients a virtual reality solution containing visual and auditory 3D experiences to fight against anxiety and pain during repetitive and anxiogenic examinations such as bronchial fibroscopies.

The purpose of this study is to validate the newly developed Hemophilia Functional Ability Scoring Tool (Hemo-FAST), which is a fast and simple scoring in haemophilia able to assess patient-reported functional mobility.
The primary objective of the study : to compare the Recurrence-Free survival (RFS) between arms. RFS is defined as time from randomisation to the first recurrence (either local-regional or distant) or death of any cause.
Strokes management, secondary to proximal arterial occlusion, by endovascular thrombectomy (TM) is now well established. The immuno-inflammatory events of reperfusion after TM are discussed. Systemic inflammation is a major factor suggested to explain the limited recovery of the ischemic parenchyma. Understanding these phenomena is necessary before developing an immunomodulatory strategy.
This is a before-after, observational, prospective, multicenter cohort study. The study will consist of 2 phases: an initial observational phase of a minimum of 3 months before the Therapeutic Education Program (TEP) intervention, then a phase of evolution analysis of at least 3 months.
The treatment of hemorrhoidal disease involves both instrumental and surgical techniques (hemorrhoidectomy and hemorrhoidopexy). In 1995, a Japanese author proposed a new treatment technique for stage II (spontaneous reintegration prolapse) or III (digital reintegration prolapse) disease, based on Doppler identification of low perirectal arteries followed by their ligation, via a specific windowed rectoscope. Later, a further modification appeared, allowing patients to be treated at more advanced stages, adding vertical mucopexy to the ligatures along the main bundles. The pathophysiology of hemorrhoidal disease is based on a vascular theory (opening of arteriovenous shunts) and on a mechanical theory (distension of the supporting tissue). Hemorrhoidectomy responds to the first, hemorrhoidopexy to the second. The HAL (Hemorrhoidal Artery Ligation) - RAR (Recto-Anal Repair) technique seeks to treat both vascular (by ligation of the nourishing arteries) and mechanical (by mucopexy of prolapsed bundles) components. The technique first spread to Germany, Russia, Italy, Spain, Australia and England. It has been popularized in France by some authors.
Peritoneal dialysis, which appeared at the end of the 1970s, quickly proved its worth both in terms of its effectiveness and of its ease of compliance, which guarantees an improved quality of life. To date there are different modes of application of this technique: Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis, and Automated Peritoneal Dialysis. Whatever the technique used, the placement of a dressing covering the exit site of the catheter is necessary just after the placement of the PD catheter and this so that the site of emergence is kept dry until healing (in general 2 to 4 weeks). Once the emergence site has healed, the technique can be started. Discharge site infections are a major predisposing factor for the development of peritonitis. Numerous studies in different parts of the world have shown that the rates of PD-related infections have steadily declined over the past 10 to 20 years. Several recommendations for the prevention and treatment of emergence site infections have been published by the International Peritoneal Dialysis Society. Several studies nonetheless call into question the recommendations by showing that catheter infection is not linked to the number of risk factors present at the time of catheter insertion, nor to the prescription of antibiotic prophylaxis, nor to the the experience of the caregiver, the antiseptic used or the early dressing change. In addition, only antibiotic prophylaxis at catheter placement is strongly recommended. Regarding the other measures, their relevance is not always demonstrated and their application varies considerably from one center to another. In addition, many authors have sought to establish a definition of catheter infections in order to allow an optimal assessment of their frequency. However, these definitions are not universal and have certain limitations. The objective of this work is on the one hand to better characterize the incidence of infections at the site of emergence in peritoneal dialysis, and on the other hand, in the absence of a definition established according to the recommendations, to use the score de Schaeffer, is in particular the value of this score which would make it possible to define more precisely the presence of an infection.
As part of the Coronavirus Infectious Disease 2019 (COVID19) pandemic, the hospital care system is facing a major strain. Patients with SARS-Cov2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 ) infection can worsen very quickly, possibly presenting, within hours, severe respiratory failure requiring urgent specialized care. Therefore, it is essential to develop emergency assessment tools to assess relevant criteria to decide which patients must be kept under hospital monitoring and which patients can be treated on outpatient care. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of STST in the decision to hospitalize patients consulting emergency department for a SARS-Cov2 infection. The investigators wish to show that the addition of this test to the usual hospitalization criteria reduces the proportion of patients hospitalized 48 hours after their first visit to the emergency department.
