Maternal and perinatal outcomes following pre-Delta, Delta, and Omicron SARS-CoV-2 variants infection among unvaccinated pregnant women in France and Switzerland: a prospective cohort study using the COVI-PREG registry

The Delta period was associated with a higher risk of severe maternal adverse outcome
and the Omicron period with a lower risk of severe adverse outcome compared to pre-Delta
era. The reported risk of hospitalization was high during the Omicron period and should
not be trivialized. ....

Risk factors affecting COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness identified from 290 cross-country observational studies until February 2022: a meta-analysis and meta-regression | BMC Medicine

Observational studies made it possible to assess the impact of risk factors on the long-term effectiveness of mRNA and adenoviral vector (AdV) vaccines against COVID-19. A computerized literature search was undertaken using the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and MedRxiv databases to identify eligible studies, with no language restrictions, published up to 28 February 2022. Eligible were observational studies assessing vaccine effectiveness (VE) by disease severity with reference groups of unvaccinated participants or participants immunized with one, two, or three vaccine doses. Our study was carried out in compliance with the PRISMA and MOOSE guidelines. The risk of study bias was identified using the Newcastle–Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale. The GRADE guidelines were applied to assess the strength of evidence for the primary outcome. The synthesis was conducted using a meta-analysis and meta-regression. Out of a total of 14,155 publications, 290 studies were included. Early VE of full vaccin ....

Posttraumatic growth inventory: challenges with its validation among French cancer patients | BMC Medical Research Methodology

The Posttraumatic growth inventory (PTGI) aims to assess the positive psychological changes that individuals can perceive after a traumatic life event such as a cancer diagnosis. Several French translations of the PTGI have been proposed, but comprehensive data on their psychometric properties are lacking. This study aimed to provide a more complete assessment of the psychometric properties of one of the most used PTGI translations in early-stage breast cancer and melanoma patients. A sample of 379 patients completed the PTGI two years after their cancer diagnosis. A confirmatory analysis was first performed to determine whether the initial five-factor structure of the PTGI was adequate for this French version. As issues were identified in the translation and in the questionnaire structure, we performed an exploratory analysis to determine the most suitable structure for this questionnaire. Validity and reliability of the evidenced structured were then assessed. The exploratory analysi ....

Cureus | Pediatric Residency Point-of-Care Ultrasound Training Needs Assessment and Educational Intervention

Background

Prior studies showed that point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) training is not commonly offered in pediatric residency. We assessed the need for a pediatric POCUS curriculum by evaluating pediatric trainees’ attitudes toward the use of POCUS and identifying barriers to training. We also aimed to evaluate the impact of a POCUS educational intervention on self-efficacy and behavior.

Methods

We conducted a cross-sectional survey of pediatric residents in a single large freestanding children’s hospital distributed via an institutional listserv and administered online. The survey included opinion-rating of statements regarding POCUS and barriers to training. We also offered a two-week POCUS course with online modules and hands-on scanning. Participating residents completed pre- and post-course knowledge assessments and follow-up surveys up to 12 months following the course to assess POCUS use and self-report confidence on POCUS indications, acquisition, ....
