La culture du sport au Québec
Ce livre propose des regards diversifiés - par les genres d'écritures et par les interprétations données - sur les genèses, les formes et les processus d'identification du sport au Québec. L'histoire du sport est présentée inscrite dans la société québécoise comme une “histoire qui s'écrit et qui se dit”, c'est-à- dire dont la mise en récit a, en tant que telle, des effets de socialisation. Le hockey sur glace, qui apparaît à Montréal à la fin du xixe siècle, fournit un exemple emblématique de la dimension identitaire nationale du sport, qu'il soit de loisir ou de compétition. Longtemps sujet d'étude secondaire, le sport s'affirme de plus en plus, au Québec et dans le reste du monde, comme un élément majeur de la culture contemporaine. De la place de l'objet sport dans les sciences sociales et dans la littérature, la vingtaine d'auteurs représentant plusieurs universités canadiennes apporte un témoignage et des analyses montrant combien la culture du sport peut être un révélateur des changements sociaux globaux
Shared genetic predisposition in rheumatoid arthritis-interstitial lung disease and familial pulmonary fibrosis
This work was supported by research grants from the Societe Francaise de Rhumatologie, Club Rhumatismes Inflammation, la Chancellerie des Universites de Paris (legs Poix), Sorbonne Paris Cite (FPI-SPC Program), Agence Nationale de la Recherche (grants ANR-10-LABX-46, ANR-10-EQPX-07-01, ANR-14-CE10-0006 and ANR-10-INBS-09), France Genomique National Infrastructure, unrestricted grants from Pfizer, Roche and Chugai, and the Centre de Resources Biologiques Hopital Bichat, Paris, FranceDespite its high prevalence and mortality, little is known about the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD). Given that familial pulmonary fibrosis (FPF) and RA-ILD frequently share the usual pattern of interstitial pneumonia and common environmental risk factors, we hypothesised that the two diseases might share additional risk factors, including FPF-linked genes. Our aim was to identify coding mutations of FPF-risk genes associated with RA-ILD.We used whole exome sequencing (WES), followed by restricted analysis of a discrete number of FPF-linked genes and performed a burden test to assess the excess number of mutations in RA-ILD patients compared to controls.Among the 101 RA-ILD patients included, 12 (11.9%) had 13 WES-identified heterozygous mutations in the TERT, RTEL1, PARN or SFTPC coding regions. The burden test, based on 81 RA-ILD patients and 1010 controls of European ancestry, revealed an excess of TERT, RTEL1, PARN or SFTPC mutations in RA-ILD patients (OR 3.17, 95% CI 1.53-6.12; p=9.45x10-4). Telomeres were shorter in RA-ILD patients with a TERT, RTEL1 or PARN mutation than in controls (p=2.87x10-2)

Persistent headaches one year after bacterial meningitis: prevalence, determinants and impact on quality of life
International audienceBackground: Little is known on headaches long-term persistence after bacterial meningitis and on their impact on patients' quality of life.Methods: In an ancillary study of the French national prospective cohort of community-acquired bacterial meningitis in adults (COMBAT) conducted between February 2013 and July 2015, we collected self-reported headaches before, at onset, and 12 months (M12) after meningitis. Determinants of persistent headache (PH) at M12, their association with M12 quality of life (SF 12), depression (Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale) and neuro-functional disability were analysed.Results: Among the 277 alive patients at M12 87/274 (31.8%), 213/271 (78.6%) and 86/277 (31.0%) reported headaches before, at the onset, and at M12, respectively. In multivariate analysis, female sex (OR: 2.75 [1.54-4.90]; p < 0.001), pre-existing headaches before meningitis (OR: 2.38 [1.32-4.30]; p < 0.01), higher neutrophilic polynuclei percentage in the CSF of the initial lumbar puncture (OR: 1.02 [1.00-1.04]; p < 0.05), and brain abscess during the initial hospitalisation (OR: 8.32 [1.97-35.16]; p < 0.01) were associated with M12 persistent headaches. Neither the responsible microorganism, nor the corticoids use were associated with M12 persistent headaches. M12 neuro-functional disability (altered Glasgow Outcome Scale; p < 0.01), M12 physical handicap (altered modified Rankin score; p < 0.001), M12 depressive symptoms (p < 0.0001), and M12 altered physical (p < 0.05) and mental (p < 0.0001) qualities of life were associated with M12 headaches.Conclusion: Persistent headaches are frequent one year after meningitis and are associated with quality of life alteration
One-Year Sequelae and Quality of Life in Adults with Meningococcal Meningitis: Lessons from the COMBAT Multicentre Prospective Study
Trial registration: ClinicalTrial.Gov identification number NCT01730690.International audienceIntroduction: COMBAT is a prospective, multicentre cohort study that enrolled consecutive adults with community-acquired bacterial meningitis (CABM) in 69 participating centres in France between February 2013 and July 2015 and followed them for 1 year.Methods: Patients aged at least 18 years old, hospitalised with CABM were followed during their hospitalisation and then contacted by phone 12 months after enrolment. Here we present the prevalence of sequelae at 12 months in a subgroup of patients with meningococcal meningitis.Results: Five of the 111 patients with meningococcal meningitis died during initial hospitalisation and two died between discharge and 12 months, leaving 104 patients alive 1 year after enrolment, 71 of whom provided 12-month follow-up data. The median age was 30.0 years and 54.1% of the patients had no identified risk factor for meningitis. More than 30% reported persistent headache, more than 40% were not satisfied with their sleep and 10% had concentration difficulties. Hearing loss was present in about 15% of the patients and more than 30% had depressive symptoms. About 13% of the patients with a previous professional activity had not resumed work. On the SF-12 Health Survey, almost 50% and 30% had physical component or mental component scores lower than the 25th percentile of the score distribution in the French general population. There was a non-significant improvement in the patients' disability scores from hospital discharge to 12 months (p = 0.16), but about 10% of the patients had residual disability.Conclusions: Although most patients in our cohort survive meningococcal meningitis, the long-term burden is substantial and therefore it is important to ensure a prolonged follow-up of survivors and to promote preventive strategies, including vaccination
