Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 and Risk of Cardiac Arrhythmias in Hemodialysis Patients
Despite recent progress in the field of hemodialysis (HD), mortality remains unacceptably high, particularly due to cardiac arrhythmias. Recent evidence suggests that fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiac arrhythmias and sudden death. However, several aspects of both the pathogenetic mechanism(s) as well as the …
Impact of a TDM-guided ECPA Program for Optimizing Pharmacodynamic Target Attainment of Continuous Infusion Beta-lactam-based Regimen
Previous studies have clearly demonstrated a significant impact of optimised antibiotic therapy based on a TDM-guided approach in reducing the clinical and microbiological failure rate and in improving the achievement of an optimal pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic target. However, no study has yet evaluated this aspect in the specific scenario of liver transplant …
Markers of Favorable Response to FcRn Inhibitors(INFORM)
Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune neurological disease caused by autoantibodies primarily directed against components of the postsynaptic membrane of the neuromuscular junction. Approximately 85% of patients have antibodies directed against the acetylcholine receptor (anti-AChR). Anti-AChR antibodies act through three distinct mechanisms: Activation of the classical complement pathway: Formation of membrane-attack …

The aim of the present study is to study compliance with lithium therapy and patterns of lithium intake among a representative group of patients with bipolar disorder in a real-world clinical setting. This will be studied via a pill box that registers the daily time when the participant took the …
Analysis of the Genotype/Phenotype Relationship in the Fuchs' Corneal Endothelial Dystrophy in France
The pathophysiology of the most common corneal endothelial dystrophies (Fuchs' Corneal Endothelial Dystrophy, FECD) is beginning to be dismembered. There is a significant heterogeneity in the clinical forms and the investigators have just highlighted a great diversity of histological forms that seem to define distinct groups.
