Introduction: Biomedical HIV prevention tools are available in France to prevent new infections. However, evidence suggests a lack of knowledge of these tools among sub-Saharan African immigrants, who are particularly affected by HIV due to social hardship, an indirect factor of HIV acquisition. We analysed the impact of an empowerment-based interv...
BACKGROUND: Data on the use and outcome of children on ventricular assist device (VAD) support provided with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) remains poor. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of the EUROMACS database on children supported with VAD
Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) are common in cancer management and complicate the choice of anticoagulation in cancer-associated thrombosis. Cancer confers an increased risk of thrombotic events. Also, more bleeding events are observed in those who receive anticoagulation compared to those without cancer. In the treatment of cancer-associated thromb...

Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are excreted by P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and some are metabolized by CYP450 enzymes such as CYP3A4. Although fewer drug interactions are present with NOACs, it is unclear whether NOACs should also be preferred over vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) using pharmaco...
Cancer-associated thrombosis, with the incidence rising over the years, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality in patients with cancer. Recent advances in the treatment of cancer-associated venous thromboembolism (VTE) include the introduction of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), which provide a more convenient and effective optio...
CONTEXT: Since the introduction of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for the treatment of nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (Afib), oral anticoagulants (OACs) prescription has evolved. AIM: We aim first to explore the OACs prescription behaviour in Flanders from 2002 to 2019 before exploring the impact of switching patients from vitamin K antagonist...
Introduction In France, combination prevention tools, particularly antiretroviral treatment for HIV prevention has been available for several years. We described the knowledge of these antiretroviral treatments among immigrants from sub-Saharan Africa, who are particularly affected by HIV, and the factors associated with this knowledge. Methods The...
Objectives. In 2015, the WHO recommended HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for people at substantial risk of being infected by HIV, but also highlighted the need for research projects to improve PrEP implementation and follow-up, especially among female sex workers (FSW). While many studies have been published on PrEP among men who have sex with ...
Considering mental health is essential for the individual and society. Healthcare professionals are at risk of poor mental health. On the occasion of WHO World Mental Health Day on October 10th, 2021, a survey was conducted by the Occupational Health Service and the Direction of quality in Healthcare of the University Hospital of Lyon (Hospices civ...
