Evaluation de la filière coordonnée de prise en charge des patients diabétiques «Diabaide» : période 2004-2006
La filière coordonnée "diabaide" a été mise en place à fin 2004 dans l'objectif d'améliorer la prise en charge des patients diabétiques par une organisation des soins fondée sur la collaboration, le partage de l'information et la coordination des prestations, afin de renforcer l'autonomie des patients (éducation et auto-prise en charge), d'améliorer la qualité des soins (recommandations thérapeutiques et protocoles de soins) et de maîtriser les coûts. La filière, à ses débuts, était constituée principalement de la cellule multidisciplinaire "diabaide", qui offrait des consultations ambulatoires et hospitalières par des professionnels spécialisés. Cette évaluation, intermédiaire, avait pour objectif d'estimer si le programme avait atteint ses objectifs après deux années d'activités. [....]
Le développement de programmes de prise en charge des maladies chroniques est encore à ses débuts en Suisse et "diabaide" fait image de pionnier dans ce domaine. Après cette évaluation, le programme a été modifié en 2007 et ne correspond plus à la description fournie dans ce document.
De nouveaux programmes ont également été mis en place en Suisse depuis 2007 (par exemple makora Diabetes-Disease Management Programm à Zürich). Dans le canton de Vaud, le département de la santé de l'action sociale a créé en 2010 un programme cantonal visant à réduire l'impact du diabète sur la population en agissant sur la prévention et sur l'amélioration de la prise en charge des personnes diabétiques. Le programme cantonal a pour objectif notamment de développer une prise en charge globale, inspirée en partie du programme "diabaide", qui sera stratifiée en fonction de la sévérité de la maladie et des besoins des patients, intégrera l'auto-gestion (self-management), sera organisée en filières interdisciplinaires, et sera fondée sur les preuves.

<![CDATA[The formation and accumulation of toxic amyloid-β peptides (Aβ) in the brain may drive the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Accordingly, disease-modifying therapies for Alzheimer's disease and related disorders could result from treatments regulating Aβ homeostasis. Examples are the inhibition of production, misfolding, and accumulation of Aβ or the enhancement of its clearance. Here we show that oral treatment with ACI-91 (Pirenzepine) dose-dependently reduced brain Aβ burden in AβPPPS1, hAβPPSL, and AβPP/PS1 transgenic mice. A possible mechanism of action of ACI-91 may occur through selective inhibition of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (AChR) on endothelial cells of brain microvessels and enhanced Aβ peptide clearance across the blood-brain barrier. One month treatment with ACI-91 increased the clearance of intrathecally-injected Aβ in plaque-bearing mice. ACI-91 also accelerated the clearance of brain-injected Aβ in blood and peripheral tissues by favoring its urinal excretion. A single oral dose of ACI-91 reduced the half-life of interstitial Aβ peptide in pre-plaque mhAβPP/PS1d mice. By extending our studies to an in vitro model, we showed that muscarinic AChR inhibition by ACI-91 and Darifenacin augmented the capacity of differentiated endothelial monolayers for active transport of Aβ peptide. Finally, ACI-91 was found to consistently affect, in vitro and in vivo, the expression of endothelial cell genes involved in Aβ transport across the Blood Brain Brain (BBB). Thus increased Aβ clearance through the BBB may contribute to reduced Aβ burden and associated phenotypes. Inhibition of muscarinic AChR restricted to the periphery may present a therapeutic advantage as it avoids adverse central cholinergic effects
Inventory and perspectives of chronic disease management programs in Switzerland: an exploratory survey
Objective: To describe chronic disease management programs active in Switzerland in 2007, using an exploratory survey. <br><br> Methods: We searched the internet (Swiss official websites and Swiss web-pages, using Google), a medical electronic database (Medline), reference lists of pertinent articles, and contacted key informants. Programs met our operational definition of chronic disease management if their interventions targeted a chronic disease, included a multidisciplinary team (≥2 healthcare professionals), lasted at least six months, and had already been implemented and were active in December 2007. We developed an extraction grid and collected data pertaining to eight domains (patient population, intervention recipient, intervention content, delivery personnel, method of communication, intensity and complexity, environment, clinical outcomes). <br><br> Results: We identified seven programs fulfilling our operational definition of chronic disease management. Programs targeted patients with diabetes, hypertension, heart failure, obesity, psychosis and breast cancer. Interventions were multifaceted; all included education and half considered planned follow-ups. The recipients of the interventions were patients, and healthcare professionals involved were physicians, nurses, social workers, psychologists and case managers of various backgrounds. <br><br> Conclusions: In Switzerland, a country with universal healthcare insurance coverage and little incentive to develop new healthcare strategies, chronic disease management programs are scarce. For future developments, appropriate evaluations of existing programs, involvement of all healthcare stakeholders, strong leadership and political will are, at least, desirable
Development and validation of an international appraisal instrument for assessing the quality of clinical practice guidelines: the AGREE project
BACKGROUND: International interest in clinical practice guidelines has never been greater but many published guidelines do not meet the basic quality requirements. There have been renewed calls for validated criteria to assess the quality of guidelines. OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate an international instrument for assessing the quality of the process and reporting of clinical practice guideline development. METHODS: The instrument was developed through a multi-staged process of item generation, selection and scaling, field testing, and refinement procedures. 100 guidelines selected from 11 participating countries were evaluated independently by 194 appraisers with the instrument. Following refinement the instrument was further field tested on three guidelines per country by a new set of 70 appraisers. RESULTS: The final version of the instrument contained 23 items grouped into six quality domains with a 4 point Likert scale to score each item (scope and purpose, stakeholder involvement, rigour of development, clarity and presentation, applicability, editorial independence). 95% of appraisers found the instrument useful for assessing guidelines. Reliability was acceptable for most domains (Cronbach's alpha 0.64-0.88). Guidelines produced as part of an established guideline programme had significantly higher scores on editorial independence and, after the publication of a national policy, had significantly higher quality scores on rigour of development (p<0.005). Guidelines with technical documentation had higher scores on that domain (p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: This is the first time an appraisal instrument for clinical practice guidelines has been developed and tested internationally. The instrument is sensitive to differences in important aspects of guidelines and can be used consistently and easily by a wide range of professionals from different backgrounds. The adoption of common standards should improve the consistency and quality of the reporting of guideline development worldwide and provide a framework to encourage international comparison of clinical practice guidelines.

<![CDATA[Neurons have been counted in the isthmo-optic nucleus following lesions of the optic tectum, its main source of afferents. Late lesions, made at 10.8-12.2 days of incubation, were employed as they cause the fewest non-specific side effects. The lesions spared the isthmo-optic tract, and although they caused many retinal ganglion cells to die, the degeneration did not spread to the inner nuclear layer, which contains the target cells of the isthmo-optic fibers. Hence the effects on the isthmo-optic nucleus were due to its being deprived of afferents. Even in unoperated embryos, 60% of the isthmo-optic neurons are known to die between embryonic days 12 and 17. The tectal lesions greatly increased the cell loss ipsilaterally; this was due to cell death, since other explanations such as migration away or differential cellular shrinkage have been ruled out. The fact that additional neuronal death occurred mainly during the latter half of the period of natural cell death implies that the tectal afferents are important for the survival of the isthmo-optic neurons during this latter half, but not before

Le patient du futur : volet suisse d'un projet européen
Les systèmes de santé du monde occidental poursuivent leur mutation en termes d'organisation et de fourniture de prestations. Les progrès - biotechnologies et nouvelles techniques de l'information - ouvrent de nouvelles perspectives de prévention, de traitements des maladies et d'accès à l'information, tant du point de vue des patients que de celui des divers acteurs qui décident de la future évolution du système sanitaire. Ces progrès techniques vont de pair avec de profondes modifications culturelles et sociales. Le temps est révolu où les patients se soumettaient passivement aux prestations médicales et où information et savoir étaient réservés aux médecins. Dans ce contexte, un certain nombre de questions apparaissent comme fondamentales pour l'avenir :
o Qu'attendent les patients et les citoyens du système de santé ?
o Les patients à venir seront-ils différents de ceux d'aujourd'hui ?
o En quoi consistera la demande de prestations des futurs patients ?
o De quelle façon les futurs patients obtiendront-ils l'information, les conseils et l'assistance dont ils ont besoin ?
o Qui répondra aux différents besoins et attentes des futurs patients ?
o Comment les politiciens et les prestataires de soins devraient-ils réagir face à la demande d'une plus grande autonomie de la part des patients ? [Avant-propos]]]>

<![CDATA[Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) has become the surgical procedure of choice for patients with chronic ulcerative colitis. No study to date has examined functional and quality-of-life outcomes 30 years after pouch construction.
Using data from a prospectively maintained database with annually distributed questionnaires, functional outcomes, pouch complications, and quality of life after IPAA were determined.
Overall, 93.3% of patients had a functioning pouch at 30 years. Stool frequency during the day increased slightly from a mean of 5.7 (SD, 2.3) at 1 year to 6.2 (SD, 2.9) at 30 years (P < 0.001); nighttime frequency also increased slightly from 1.5 (SD, 1.2) to 2.1 (SD, 1.2) (P < 0.001). Pouch outcomes and stool frequency were significantly associated with diagnosis, being worse in patients with Crohn's disease, but were minimally associated with age greater than 65 years. After IPAA, the 30-year cumulative probability of pouchitis, stricture, obstruction, and fistula were 80.2%, 56.7%, 44.0%, and 15.8%, respectively. Quality of life scores remained stable over the 30 years.
IPAA is a durable operation for patients requiring proctocolectomy for chronic ulcerative colitis and indeterminate colitis. The functional outcomes and quality of life remained relatively unchanged over the 30 years after IPAA underscoring the longevity of pouches
