Constitution of a Cohort for Monitoring Patients Candidating for Ovarian Tissue Autograft
Ovarian cryopreservation is one of the available option for preserving fertility prior to potentially sterilizing treatments. In the absence of other techniques such as in vitro folliculogenesis or injection of isolated ovarian follicles, this tissue can only be re-used by autograft. In France, the first live birth after orthotopic ovarian …
Flu Infection at UPHS
Cellular and humoral immune responses in individuals with active influenza infection will be assessed. Each year, up to 50 participants will be enrolled. The investigators hypothesize that influenza infection will elicit mostly memory immune responses rather than de novo immune responses to infection.

"The Voice of Reflux" - Backflow of Gastric Juice Leads to Irritation of the Vocal Folds: Are There Typical Differences in the Voice?
If gastric juice refluxes back into the oesophagus and up into the throat/pharynx/mouth area, causing discomfort or injury, this is known as reflux disease (reflux). Classic symptoms include a burning pain in the middle of the upper abdomen, chest or throat (so-called heartburn), regurgitation of food (acid regurgitation), foreign body …
POlycythemia, Proteins and ErYthropoiesis
Erythropoiesis encompasses all the stages and mechanisms involved in the production of red blood cells, or erythrocytes, under the control of a large number of regulatory agents, most often proteins. Among these proteins, erythropoietin and interleukin-3 play a major role. Similarly, proteins involved in iron metabolism (erythroferrone, hepcidin, ferroportin, transferrin, …
Association Between Fecal Microbiota Composition, Metabolite Concentrations, and Indoxyl Sulfate Levels
Gut dysbiosis is frequently characterized by decreased microbial diversity and alterations in the abundance of certain microbial species. In individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD), dysbiosis and metabolic imbalances are prevalent, contributing to the buildup of gut-derived retention solutes and metabolites in the bloodstream. Research has consistently shown that CKD …
The Role of the Free/Pedunculated Flap in Total Laryngectomy After (Chemo-)Radiotherapy Failure for Laryngeal Carcinoma: Impact on the Risk of Pharyngocutaneous Fistula (PCF)
Multicenter, prospective, randomized study aimed at evaluating the difference in risk of PCF after salvage laryngectomy in two groups of patients: one cohort treated with Total Laryngectomy (LT) with primary suture, a second group treated with LT and reinforcement by flap positioning with onlay technique (PMM, ALT)
