Change in MAPSE During Treatment of Sepsis
Patients with bloodstream infections (sepsis) have been found in prior studies to have infection-related heart dysfunction, even if they did not have preexisting heart problems. Factors related to the infection may cause the heart to not pump as well as it should, causing critical illness in the form of low …
Comparing Carbon Ion Therapy, Surgery, and Proton Therapy for Management of Pelvic Sarcomas Involving the Bone
This study compares carbon ion therapy, surgery, and proton therapy to determine if one has better disease control and fewer side effects. There are three types of radiation treatment used for pelvic bone sarcomas: surgery with or without photon/proton therapy, proton therapy alone, and carbon ion therapy alone. The purpose …
Prediction of the Spontaneous Breathing Test Success Using Biosignal and Biomarker in Critical Care Unit by a Machine Learning Approach
Context Several authors have been interested in applying Artificial Intelligence (AI) to medicine, using various Machine Learning (ML) techniques: managing septic shock, predicting renal failure... [1, 2] AI has an important place in decision support for clinicians [3]. The weaning period is a really important time in the management of …
Functional Limitation, Pain and Quality of Life in Patients With Cervical Spondylotic Radiculopathy
Radiculopathy is a neurological condition in which transmission along a spinal nerve and its roots is limited or inhibited. It is most caused by spondylotic changes such as cervical disc herniation leading to nerve root compression, inflammatory changes, and the formation of bony prominences in this region [1]. Pain is …

Combined Nerve and Tendon Transfer for the Restoration of Hand Function in Individuals With Tetraplegia
Tetraplegia after a cervical spinal cord injury (C-SCI) radically alters an individual's ability to perform normal activities of daily life due to paralysis in all extremities, resulting in lifelong dependence.[1] Traditional tendon transfer surgery has proven successful in restoring grip functions which greatly improves autonomy, but with a restricted passive …
The Utility of Thromboelastography in Traumatic Brain Injury
Hemocoagulation disorder is recognized to have crucial effects on hemorrhagic or ischemic diseases. Coagulation-related damages secondary to traumatic brain injury are common and severe secondary insults of head trauma and often leads to a poor prognosis. In this study, we sought to assess if posttraumatic hemocoagulation disorders determined using thromboelastography …
Impact of Modifications to the Rendering of the Antibiogram on the Prescriptions of Meropenem in Pseudomonas Bacteremia
Modification of the rendering of the antibiogram at the Strasbourg University Hospital in November 2019 with the appearance of the concept of "standard dose" or "high dose" sensitivity. This modification seems to have favored an inappropriate overprescription of Meropenem (the only antibiotic made "at standard dose") in Pseudomonas infections sensitive …
Perioperative Energy Expenditure in Major Liver Resection
Rationale: Complication rates after major liver resections remain as high as 43%. Many initiatives have been taken to reduce postoperative morbidity. As such, prehabilitation programmes are increasingly used for patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. Improvement of aerobic fitness has been proven to reduce complication rates, especially in high-risk patients (those …
