Cet article analyse le processus de professionnalisation inachevé, en œuvre dans les E2C (écoles de la deuxième chance) de Champagne-Ardenne. L’analyse revient sur les leviers mis en place afin d’accompagner et d’harmoniser les pratiques des formateurs, tant d’un point de vue organisationnel que de celui de l’offre de formation continue et d’expérimentation pédagogique. Nous montrerons que l’évolution de l’organisation pédagogique par projet induit des nouvelles pratiques pour l’établissement et pour ses formateurs.This article analyses the unfinished profesionalization process in Champagne-Ardenne second chance schools (E2C). The analysis focuses on the reflexions and the actions to guide and standardize the trainer’s practices. This means evolution in terms of work organization, training of trainers’ and pedagogical testing. We argue that the evolution of the organization of the pedagogical project leads to new practices for both the school and the trainers.Dieser Artikel analysiert den noch nicht abgeschlossenen Professionalisierungsprozess in den E2C (Schulen der zweiten Chance) in der Region Champagne-Ardenne.

Patent Foramen Ovale Closure or Anticoagulation vs. Antiplatelets after Stroke
BACKGROUND Trials of patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure to prevent recurrent stroke have been inconclusive. We investigated whether patients with cryptogenic stroke and echocardiographic features representing risk of stroke would benefit from PFO closure or anticoagulation, as compared with antiplatelet therapy. METHODS In a multicenter, randomized, open-label trial, we assigned, in a 1:1:1 ratio, patients 16 to 60 years of age who had had a recent stroke attributed to PFO, with an associated atrial septal aneurysm or large interatrial shunt, to transcatheter PFO closure plus long-term antiplatelet therapy (PFO closure group), antiplatelet therapy alone (antiplatelet-only group), or oral anticoagulation (anticoagulation group) (randomization group 1). Patients with contraindications to anticoagulants or to PFO closure were randomly assigned to the alternative noncontraindicated treatment or to antiplatelet therapy (randomization groups 2 and 3). The primary outcome was occurrence of stroke. The comparison of PFO closure plus antiplatelet therapy with antiplatelet therapy alone was performed with combined data from randomization groups 1 and 2, and the comparison of oral anticoagulation with antiplatelet therapy alone was performed with combined data from randomization groups 1 and 3. RESULTS A total of 663 patients underwent randomization and were followed for a mean (+/- SD) of 5.3 +/- 2.0 years. In the analysis of randomization groups 1 and 2, no stroke occurred among the 238 patients in the PFO closure group, whereas stroke occurred in 14 of the 235 patients in the antiplatelet-only group (hazard ratio, 0.03; 95% confidence interval, 0 to 0.26; P<0.001). Procedural complications from PFO closure occurred in 14 patients (5.9%). The rate of atrial fibrillation was higher in the PFO closure group than in the antiplatelet-only group (4.6% vs. 0.9%, P = 0.02). The number of serious adverse events did not differ significantly between the treatment groups (P = 0.56). In the analysis of randomization groups 1 and 3, stroke occurred in 3 of 187 patients assigned to oral anticoagulants and in 7 of 174 patients assigned to antiplatelet therapy alone. CONCLUSIONS Among patients who had had a recent cryptogenic stroke attributed to PFO with an associated atrial septal aneurysm or large interatrial shunt, the rate of stroke recurrence was lower among those assigned to PFO closure combined with antiplatelet therapy than among those assigned to antiplatelet therapy alone. PFO closure was associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation

Multiple cerebral and spinal cord cavernomas in Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome.
International audienceKlippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome (KTWS) is a rare syndrome in which patients harbor cutaneous hemangiomas, venous varicosities, and osseous-soft tissue hypertrophy of the affected limb. The clinical presentation of this syndrome is variable and the etiopathogenesis is presumably genetic in view of recent discoveries of RASA1 gene mutations in KTWS patients. Similarly, the KRIT1 gene is involved in pathogenesis of cavernous angiomas. Both RASA1 and KRIT1 genes interact with Rap1a protein, a member of the Ras family of guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) signalling cellular adhesion. We report a 55-year-old male with KTWS harboring multiple cavernous angiomas in the thoracic spinal cord and the brainstem, as revealed by MRI. Angiography ruled out arteriovenous malformation. The patient was managed conservatively. The rarity of cavernous angiomas in KTWS and the possibilities of shared genetic pathways between KTWS and cavernous angiomas are discussed
Is COVID-19 Infection a Multiorganic Disease? Focus on Extrapulmonary Involvement of SARS-CoV-2
First described in December 2019 in Wuhan (China), COVID-19 disease rapidly spread worldwide, constituting the biggest pandemic in the last 100 years. Even if SARS-CoV-2, the agent responsible for COVID-19, is mainly associated with pulmonary injury, evidence is growing that this virus can affect many organs, including the heart and vascular endothelial cells, and cause haemostasis, CNS, and kidney and gastrointestinal tract abnormalities that can impact in the disease course and prognosis. In fact, COVID-19 may affect almost all the organs. Hence, SARS-CoV-2 is essentially a systemic infection that can present a large number of clinical manifestations, and it is variable in distribution and severity, which means it is potentially life-threatening. The goal of this comprehensive review paper in the series is to give an overview of non-pulmonary involvement in COVID-19, with a special focus on underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and clinical presentation

Efficiency and effectiveness of intensive multidisciplinary follow-up of patients with stroke/TIA or myocardial infarction compared to usual monitoring: protocol of a pragmatic randomised clinical trial. DiVa (Dijon vascular) study
Introduction The ongoing ageing population is associated with an increase in the number of patients suffering a stroke, transient ischaemic attack (TIA) or myocardial infarction (MI). In these patients, implementing secondary prevention is a critical challenge and new strategies need to be developed to close the gap between clinical practice and evidence-based recommendations. We describe the protocol of a randomised clinical trial that aims to evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of an intensive multidisciplinary follow-up of patients compared with standard care.Methods and analysis The DiVa study is a randomised, prospective, controlled, multicentre trial including patients >18 years old with a first or recurrent stroke (ischaemic or haemorrhagic) or TIA, or a type I or II MI, managed in one of the participating hospitals of the study area, with a survival expectancy >12 months. Patients will be randomised with an allocation ratio of 1:1 in two parallel groups: one group assigned to a multidisciplinary, nurse-based and pharmacist-based 2-year follow-up in association with general practitioners, neurologists and cardiologists versus one group with usual follow-up. In each group for each disease (stroke/TIA or MI), 430 patients will be enrolled (total of 1720 patients) over 3 years. The primary outcome will be the incremental cost–utility ratio at 24 months between intensive and standard follow-up in a society perspective. Secondary outcomes will include the incremental cost–utility ratio at 6 and 12 months, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio at 24 months, reduction at 6, 12 and 24 months of the rates of death, unscheduled rehospitalisation and iatrogenic complications, changes in quality of life, net budgetary impact at 5 years of the intensive follow-up on the national health insurance perspective and analysis of factors having positive or negative effects on the implementation of the project in the study area.Ethics and dissemination Ethical approval was obtained and all patients receive information about the study and give their consent to participate before randomisation. Results of the main trial and each of the secondary analyses will be submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal.Trial registration number ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04188457.

Increased ischemic stroke, acute coronary artery disease and mortality in patients with granulomatosis with polyangiitis and microscopic polyangiitis
International audienceObjective: The aim of our study was to assess major cardiovascular event incidence, predictors, and mortality in ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV).Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of all GPA or MPA, according to Chapel Hill Consensus Conference classification criteria, diagnosed between 1981 and 2015. Major cardiovascular event was defined as acute coronary artery disease, or ischemic stroke, or peripheral vascular disease requiring a revascularization procedure. We calculated the comparative morbidity/mortality figure (CMF) and we used Cox proportional hazards regression models to assess the risk of coronary artery disease, ischemic stroke associated with AAV, after adjusting for covariates.Results: 125 patients, 99 GPA (79,2%) and 26 MPA (20,8%), were followed 88.4 ± 78.3 months. Ischemic stroke incidence was four times higher than in the general population (CMF 4,65; 95% CI 4,06-5,31). Coronary artery disease incidence was four times higher than in the general population (CMF 4,22; 95% CI 1,52-11,68). Smoking habits and history of coronary artery disease were strongly associated with coronary artery disease occurrence (adjusted HR 8.8; 95% CI 2.12-36.56, and adjusted HR 10.3; 95% CI 1.02-104.5, respectively). ENT flare-up was an independent protective factor for coronary artery disease occurrence. We did not identify factors significantly associated with stroke occurrence. The age-adjusted mortality rate was 22.5 per 1000 person-years. Mortality in AAV was 1.5 times higher than in the general population (CMF 1.56; 95% CI 1.34-1.83).Conclusion: AAV have a significantly increased risk of mortality, ischemic stroke, and coronary artery disease
Distribution of atrial cardiomyopathy markers and association with atrial fibrillation detected after ischaemic stroke in the SAFAS study
Background Atrial cardiomyopathy (AC) is an emerging concept explaining the pathophysiology of cardioembolic strokes in absence of atrial fibrillation (AF). A definition based on the presence of electrical abnormality (P-wave terminal force in lead V1 (PTFV1) >5000 µV×ms), N-Terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT pro BNP) >250 pg/mL and/or indexed left atrial diameter (LADI) >3 cm/m² is currently tested in the ARCADIA (AtRial Cardiopathy and Antithrombotic Drugs In prevention After cryptogenic stroke) trial. We set out to estimate the prevalence of AC as defined in the ARCADIA trial, its determinants and its association with AF detected after stroke (AFDAS).Methods Stepwise screening for silent Atrial Fibrillation After Stroke (SAFAS) study prospectively included 240 ischaemic stroke patients. AC markers were complete for 192 of them and 9 were not included in this analysis because AF had been diagnosed on admission.Results A total of 183 patients were analysed, of whom 57% (104 patients) met the AC criteria (79 NT-proBNP, 47 PTFV1, 4 LADI). In the multivariate logistic regression, C reactive protein >3 mg/L (OR (95% CI) 2.60 (1.30 to 5.21), p=0.007) and age (OR (95% CI) 1.07 (1.04 to 1.10), p<0.001) were found to be independently associated with AC. After 6 months of follow-up, AFDAS was detected in 33% of AC patients and in 14% of the remaining ones (p=0.003). However, AC was not independently associated with AFDAS, contrary to left atrial volume index (>34 mL/m2, OR 2.35 (CI 1.09 to 5.06) p=0029).Conclusion AC as defined in ARCADIA is mostly based on NT pro BNP elevation (76% of patients) and is associated with age and inflammation. Moreover, AC was not independently associated with AFDAS at follow-up. The ARCADIA trial, which compares aspirin to apixaban in patients with embolic strokes of undetermined source with AC markers and must, therefore be analysed in the light of these limitations.Trial registration number NCT03570060
