This prospective observational study investigates the correlation between lingual colorimetry, captured using readily available and standardized modern photographic tools (iPhone cameras), and anxiety-depression scores evaluated by the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) among patients attending routine acupuncture consultations. Participants will undergo a simple and non-invasive photographic recording of their tongue using an iPhone, ensuring consistent lighting and standardized positioning to minimize variability. Simultaneously, participants will complete the MADRS questionnaire, a widely validated instrument for assessing anxiety and depression severity. No invasive procedures or therapeutic interventions beyond their usual acupuncture care will be performed. The acquired photographic data will be analyzed using machine learning algorithms to identify potential predictive relationships between distinct colorimetric characteristics of the tongue and the MADRS scores. The objective is to determine whether lingual imaging could serve as a reliable, non-invasive biomarker or complementary diagnostic tool for assessing psychological status in clinical practice. This approach leverages everyday technology (smartphones), promoting ease of replication and broader accessibility in clinical environments. Ultimately, findings from this study could facilitate early detection and monitoring of anxiety-depressive disorders, thus enhancing individualized patient care in complementary and integrative medicine.

The purpose of this phase 3, randomized, placebo controlled, event-driven study is to assess the effect of AZD0780, an oral PCSK9 inhibitor, compared with placebo in reducing the risk of MACE-PLUS in patients with established ASCVD or at high risk for a first ASCVD event. The effect of AZD0780 vs placebo on the risk of MACE-PLUS will be evaluated from randomisation until the primary analysis censoring date (PACD). The Study Closure Visit will be scheduled to occur after the PACD and will be the final visit for each participant in the study.

The recent development and expansion of endoscopic surgery has made it possible to offer an alternative to this therapeutic escalation. This method allows decompression procedures to be performed using optimized and minimally destructive surgical approaches, which contributes to preserving the physiological function of the lumbar spine and in particular its stability. The main hypothesis of the research is that the use of endoscopic techniques for decompression of the lumbar spine allows a reduction in the indication for lumbar arthrodesis.

M1095-PSA-302 is a Phase 3, parallel-group, randomized, double-blind, 4-arm, placebo-controlled, multicenter study with risankizumab as active reference arm to investigate the efficacy and safety of sonelokimab 60 mg and 120 mg versus placebo in adults with active psoriatic arthritis who have had a previous inadequate response or intolerance to anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α therapy.

Fever is the leading reason for outpatient consultations among children aged 2 to 9 years. The main concern in fever is severe bacterial infection, particularly for younger children. History and clinical examination do not always differentiate viral infections from bacterial infection. In 20% of febrile children, no infectious focus is found after examination and additional tests are necessary. The first one is measuring C-reactive protein (CRP). The results are obtained in several hours on an outpatient basis, causing long delays before starting treatment and often requiring telephone calls or further consultations. Emergency room use is constantly increasing, generating growing tensions within healthcare facilities, yet a large number of visits are avoidable. Among children visiting the pediatric emergency room, parents reported being referred by their primary care physician in approximately 20% of cases for children aged 1 to 5 years and in 30% of cases for children under one year old. The use of capillary medical device to measure CRP in primary care could reduce this referral rate and help relieve overcrowding in emergency rooms, as well as unscheduled consultation centers and medical analysis laboratories. This would result in a streamlined care pathway, saving time for both physicians and patients, as well as reducing the cost of care for the healthcare system.

PERSON-AL is a multicentric, interventional, open-label, randomized, parallel-group, stratified by centre, study comparing two arms: usual care versus intervention (personalized care preceded by a standardized assessment) Principal Objective : To evaluate the impact of a personalized intervention for the management of agitation due to psycho-behavioral symptoms on the use of scheduled and unscheduled hospitalizations at 18 months in patients with AD and related disorders. Secondary Objectives: A- To evaluate the impact of a personalized intervention at 18 months on: For the patient: 1. Unscheduled hospitalizations, 2. Severity of agitation symptoms, 3. The frequency and severity of emerging psycho-behavioral symptoms, other than agitation, 4. Prescription of psychotropic drugs, 5. Quality of life. For the caregiver: 6. Distress related to psycho-behavioral symptoms, 7. All causes hospitalizations, 8. Quality of life. B- Evaluate the medico-economic impact of this personalized intervention, and in particular: 1. Its efficiency compared to usual management by means of cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analyses, from the community perspective and over a time horizon of 18 months, 2. The actual cost of patient's standardized assessment and personalized management 3. The use of care and associated costs for the caregiver and the efficiency of caregiver targeted intervention.

Participants include men and women ≥ 40 years of age with T2DM, established CV disease, a history of HTN with an SBP of at least 130 mmHg at screening, who meet the predefined serum potassium level, and with at least one additional risk factor for HF. The study will include an optional pre-screening period to facilitate sites' identification of potentially eligible participants to enter the full screening assessments. Participants will not be required to visit the site and no informed consent is required for the optional pre-screening period. The pre-screening assessments do not replace the full screening tests at Visit 1. Upon entering the screening period, all consented participants (after signature of screening ICF) will be screened during an up to 14-day screening period. Participants who meet all screening inclusion/exclusion criteria but are not treated with SGLT2i or are treated for less than 4 weeks will enter a run-in period with dapagliflozin 10 mg once daily for at least 4 weeks (and not more than 6 weeks) before randomisation. Site visits will take place at approximately 2-, 4-, 8-, 16-, and 34-weeks following randomisation. Thereafter visits will occur approximately every 4 months. The study closure procedures will be initiated when the predetermined number of the first secondary endpoint events (ie, the composite of hospitalisation for HF or CV death) is predicted to have occurred i.e., the PACD. In case of premature discontinuation of the blinded study intervention, participants will remain in the study. Unless a participant meets the dapagliflozin specific discontinuation criteria, they will continue to receive open label dapagliflozin 10 mg. It is important that the scheduled study visits and data collection continue according to the study protocol.

Haemolytic and Uraemic Syndrome (HUS) is a serious disease requiring rapid diagnosis and management. The atypical HUS diagnosis has been greatly improved by anti-CS antibody (Eculizumab) wich block alternative complement pathway activation. To rise treatment success, Eculizumab introduction should be as early as possible. In some secondary HUS (infection, drugs…) complement is also involved as "second-hit". To date, there is no tool to confirm complement involvement in a HUS at diagnosis stage. This study suggest to evaluate a therapeutic orientation test, in order to determine the complement implication in HUS diagnosis. The test evaluates the complement deposits on endothelial cell surface in vitro, compared to a normal human serum. In order to determine the test performance, first the positive or negative results will be compared to the HUS clinical evolution, treated or not by the clinician with Eculizumab. Second, the test results will be compared to the presence of alternative complement pathway regulation abnormalities.
