The goal of this post-market interventional study is to confirm, under real-life conditions, the safety and performance of hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers intended to modify skin anatomy and facial appearance. Subjects aged 18 years or older seeking aesthetic treatment of the lips, perioral lines, nasolabial folds, cheeks, and/or infraorbital hollows may be included. The main question the study aims to answer is: How long does the effect of the products last? Participants will attend follow-up visits every 6 months after the initial injection, until the end of follow-up at 24 months. During each visit, the investigator will assess performance and safety through a simple clinical examination. At each follow-up visit, subjects will also evaluate the aesthetic improvement compared with their pre-injection appearance. Subjects will be asked about the level of pain experienced during the initial injection. If the subject wishes, a retreatment may be performed at the 12-month or 18-month follow-up visit, provided that the treated area(s) have returned to the pre-injection state.

The objective of the study is to describe the therapeutic management of patients more than or equal to 18 years old eligible for systemic therapy or treated by systemic therapy for atopic dermatitis (AD). This study will be proposed to a sample of French dermatologists experienced in the management of AD, practicing in hospital centers and/or office-based dermatologists. The study will be conducted in real conditions of practice, systemic treatment decisions will be taken at the sole initiative of the participating physician irrespective of the patient enrollment decision. Each patient will be followed-up in routine care setting for 1 year.

The study design is characterized by 4 work packages: 1. Collection of clinical data and biological samples (deep nasal swab, blood sample) from children with pertussis 2. Construction and validation of a microbial panel of 200 genes of interest (involved in virulence and/or potential vaccine antigens) for transcriptomic analysis 3. Transcriptomic study using the panel of interest of B. pertussis isolates from nasopharyngeal swabs preserved with an RNA stabilizer, using the Nanostring® technique 4. Study of the immune response during pertussis

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common bacterial infections managed in general practice: they are the 2nd site of community-acquired bacterial infection after respiratory infections (4-6 million consultations per year in France). UTIs represent 15% of total antibiotic prescriptions in France. Antibiotics recommended for UTIs, except for cystitis, are considered as "critical" (highly generating bacterial resistances). UTIs are a potential source of antibiotic resistance: often inappropriate antibiotic prescriptions, evolution of the resistance profiles of the bacteria involved, emergence of multi-resistant strains. Current guidelines classify UTIs as "uncomplicated UTI" (cystitis and pyelonephritis) and "UTI at risk of complication" (cystitis, pyelonephritis and male UTI) \[1-2\]. However, in primary care, pathologies are diagnosed at an early stage: the clinical signs usually described by scientific societies are not always all found, and the descriptions are not always adapted to the realities encountered in general practice \[3-6\]. Some clinical situations do not fit into the systematic categories of the guidelines, with "intermediate" forms (such as pain in the lumbar fossae without fever "cysphritis" or other atypical presentations) \[3\]. The current literature in general practice highlights these issues: the need for prospective cohorts in real-life practice to identify these profiles and develop more appropriate guidelines \[3-6\]. Treatment for these intermediate forms is not obvious and is often empirical: potentially longer antibiotherapies, with possible worsening of antibiotic resistance \[7\]. The first hypothesis is that there are other profiles of clinical UTI situations in general practice than typical cystitis or pyelonephritis, including intermediate forms. The second hypothesis is that these intermediate forms of UTI are subject to longer durations of antibiotherapy, and that probable explanatory factors need to be identified.

The emergence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (E-ESBL) is a major public health problem. It leads more frequent prescription of penems with the risk of emergence and spread of strains producing carbapenemases, which may be resistant to all known antibiotics. A policy of savings of penems is desirable. Among the alternatives to penems, amikacin is in the foreground. It remains active on the majority of E-ESBL strains. Some risk factors for E-ESBL emergence are known: recent antibiotic therapy (particularly quinolones and cephalosporins third generation), previous hospitalization or residence in a high endemic country. In pediatrics, E-ESBLs are primarily responsible for urinary tract infection. In France, E-ESBLs represent about 10% of the strains responsible for urinary tract infections. The Pathology Group Pediatric Infectious (GPIP) of the French Society of Pediatrics (SFP) and the Society of Infectious Pathology French Language (SPILF) have proposed different therapeutic options to treat febrile UTIs in children: amikacin intravenous; intravenous (IV) ceftriaxone or intramuscular (IM); or cefixime per-os (PO). The objective of this study is to compare the emergence of E-ESBLs in stools of children after febrile UTIs treatment with amikacin IV versus ceftriaxone or cefixime.
