Abstract
The medicine burden of people living with HIV (PLWH) is unknown. Between 2018 and 2020, participants completed a survey comprising outcome measures for medicine burden (LMQ-3) and stigma experiences (SSCI-8). Participants were HIV+ adults (≥18 years), using antiretrovirals (ARV) with or without non-ARV medicines, recruited via two outpatient clinics in southeast England and online via HIV charities across the UK. Spearman's correlations between medicine burden levels and stigma scores were calculated. Participants were mostly males (72%, 101/141) of mean (SD) age 48.6 (±12.31) years. Total number of medicines ranged from 1-20. High medicine burden was self-reported by 21.3% (30) and was associated with polypharmacy (≥ 5 medicines) (101.52 Vs 85.08, p = 0.006); multiple doses versus once daily regimes (109.31 Vs 85.65, p = 0.001); unemployment (98.23 Vs 84.46, p = 0.004); and ethnicity (97 Vs 86.85, p = 0.041 for non-White versus White participants). A correlation between medicine burden and stigma was observed (r = 0.576, p < 0.001). The LMQ-3 demonstrated adequate construct validity and reliability (domain loadings ranging 0.617-0.933 and Cronbach's α of 0.714-0.932). Assessment of medicine burden and psychosocial stigma in PLWH could enable identification of those needing additional support in future research and practice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patient partnership is a key component of patient-centred care. One form of partnership is individual peer support, which can improve patients' quality of life and adherence to treatment. Patient with multiple sclerosis could benefit from this type of support, but such an intervention has not been explored in the literature.We propose in this article a pilot study protocol to assess the feasibility and acceptability of healthcare-integrated individual peer support, and the feasibility of a large-scale efficacy trial. METHODS AND ANALYSIS The PAIR-SEP study is a mixed-methods pilot clinical trial combining quantitative and qualitative approaches. Sixty patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis undergoing drug therapy from the Neurology centre of Nantes University Hospital (France) will be randomised on a 1:1 ratio to receive either usual care only or usual care combined with peer support (three individual sessions at 1, 3 and 5 months with a peer helper).We will evaluate clinical outcomes in preparation of the large-scale trial: therapeutic adherence 6 months after baseline, therapeutic compliance, quality of life, anxiety and depression, social support. All dimensions will be assessed using validated health questionnaires at baseline and at 6 months.Intervention's acceptability and feasibility will be evaluated using qualitative methods: undirected interviews with patients from the intervention group and separate focus-groups with the peer helpers the healthcare team. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Ethical approval was obtained from the local ethics committee on 1 October 2022. This study was designed in collaboration with multiple sclerosis peer helpers.The trial findings will be published in peer-reviewed journals. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT05519553.

Impact of therapeutic education on the evolution of social representations of medication in patients with Parkinson's disease: A quantitative and qualitative study (ETPARK REMED). Rev Neurol (Paris) 2023; 179:1086-1094. [PMID: 37633737 DOI: 10.1016/j.neurol.2023.03.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2022] [Revised: 01/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/31/2023] [Indexed: 08/28/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Among the workshops of our therapeutic patient education (TPE) program, the medication workshop (TPEM workshop) is very frequently proposed to patients in view of the difficulties they encounter related to the complexity of managing antiparkinsonian treatment. Patients' appropriation of their medications could depend on their social representations. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of our TPEM workshop on the social representations PD patients have of their medications and to compare it with that of another therapeutic intervention such as a talking group defined as the control group. METHODS This single-center, prospective, randomized, parallel-group study investigated the social representations of medication through a questionnaire on knowledge about antiparkinsonian medications, a questionnaire on beliefs about medication (BMQ), and a word association task. RESULTS In the TPEM group (n=16), the workshop induced significant effects over time on the knowledge questionnaire (P=0.01), BMQ specific necessity and concerns scores (P=0.04 and 0.01, respectively), necessity-concerns differential (P=0.04), and BMQ general harm (P=0.04). No significant difference was found in the talking group (n=6). Comparison of the two groups showed a significant difference of the BMQ general harm with a decrease in belief in the harmfulness of the medications in the workshop group (P=0.03). The results of the verbal association task showed a modification in the content and structure of the social representations of medication in the TPEM group. DISCUSSION The TPEM workshop helped reduce initial negative aspects of medication representations. Improved knowledge of their medication allowed patients to feel more competent and legitimate in communicating with caregivers, modifying their beliefs about medications. Indeed, the medication was perceived as less restrictive, care becoming central as shown by the emergence of the medical team in the social representations of the medication. CONCLUSION All the results show a specific beneficial effect of the TPEM workshop through an evolution of the social representations of medications, which became more positive in our PD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND SB5 is an EMA-approved adalimumab biosimilar, having demonstrated bioequivalence, equivalent efficacy, and similar safety and immunogenicity to the reference product. AIMS Describe patient training and satisfaction using patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and assess their impact on 12-month persistence on SB5. METHODS The observational PERFUSE study included 318 Crohn's disease (CD) patients and 88 ulcerative colitis (UC) patients in 27 sites across France between October 2018 and December 2020. PROMs were collected at 1-month post-baseline using an online questionnaire (ePRO) designed with patient associations. Treatment persistence was collected during routine visits (up to 15 months post-initiation). Results are presented by prior experience with subcutaneous biologics and training in proper use of the injection device. RESULTS 57.1% (n = 145) and 44.1% (n = 67) of naïve and pre-treated patients, respectively, answered the ePRO. Naïve patients were offered training more often (86.9% vs 31.3% respectively, p < 0.05), with disparities between sites. All subgroups' satisfaction scores were high. 12-month persistence on SB5 was significantly higher for respondents than for non-respondents (68.0% [60.9; 74.1] vs 52.3% [44.5; 59.6]; p < 0.05) and in patients with a better perception of their illness (OR=1.02, [1.0; 1.05]; p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Early patient questionnaires may be useful to identify patients at higher risk of treatment discontinuation.

Vaccines (Basel) 2023; 11:vaccines11051001. [PMID: 37243105 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines11051001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2023] [Revised: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Over the past decades, vaccination has proven to be largely beneficial to global health. Despite vaccine efficacy, the French population has been recently affected by more anti-vaccination attitudes and vaccine refusal, and it is therefore necessary to validate tools to study this health issue. The Vaccination Attitudes Examination scale (VAX) is a 12-item questionnaire targeting adults that assesses general attitudes towards vaccination. The aims of the study were to translate and adapt the original English version of the scale into French and to test the psychometric properties of the scale in a French-population-based sample of adults. We included 450 French speaking adults that completed the French VAX and other questionnaires to assess convergent and divergent validities. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses showed that the French version of the VAX replicated the factorial structure of the original scale. Moreover, it demonstrated high internal consistency, good convergent and divergent validities, and excellent temporal stability. Furthermore, scores on the scale differentiated vaccinees from non-vaccinee respondents. Results on the scale provide us with insight into factors involved in vaccine hesitancy in France, therefore allowing French authorities and policy makers to address these specific concerns and improve vaccine acceptance rates in this country.

Abstract
Many studies have shown the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. We aimed to determine the factors associated with good or poor response to PRP injections in knee osteoarthritis. This was a prospective observational study. Patients with knee osteoarthritis were recruited from a university hospital. PRP was injected twice at a one-month interval. Pain was assessed on a visual analog scale (VAS) and function was assessed using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC). Radiographic stage was collected and defined according to the Kellgren-Lawrence classification. Patients were classified as responders if they met the OMERACT-OARSI criteria at 7 months. We included 210 knees. At 7 months, 43.8% were classified as responders. Total WOMAC and VAS were significantly improved between M0 and M7. Physical therapy and a heel-buttock distance >35 cm were the two criteria associated with poor response at M7 by multivariate analysis. Pain VAS at M7 appeared to be lower in patients with osteoarthritis for less than 24 months. No adverse effects were reported. PRP treatment in knee osteoarthritis appears to be well-tolerated and effective, even in patients who reacted poorly to hyaluronic acid. Response was not associated with radiographic stage.

Abstract
Medication Adherence Report Scale questionnaire (MARS-5) and the Beliefs about Medication Questionnaire-specific (BMQ-specific) are well known tools to assess adherence to medication and beliefs of chronic patients. However, validated Arabic versions of such questionnaires are lacking. We aim to validate the Arabic versions of BMQ-specific and MARS-5. In this study, a cross-sectional study was performed between November 2019 and March 2020. Participants were reached from secondary and tertiary care clinics in Jordan. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor analysis (CFA) were conducted to validate the employed questionnaires on the tested sample. The internal consistency of the questionnaires was assessed by calculating Cronbach's alpha, and Cronbach's alpha if item is deleted. A total of 485 patients who met the inclusion criteria were recruited. The mean age of the participants was 57.14 years (22-82 years); and 39% of the participants were older than 65 years. The most common chronic diseases reported by participants were hypertension and diabetes mellitus, 35.7 and 32.2% respectively. EFA suggested two-factor model for BMQ-specific and one-factor model for MARS-5 which was confirmed by CFA analyses. The resulted Cronbach's alphas of the questionnaires ranged from 0.89-0.93. Both analyses showed that the Arabic versions of both MARS-5 and BMQ-specific are valid and can be used for the suggested study population. Further validation-based research may enhance the transcultural adaptation of such questionnaires.

Abstract
Background One out of three patients with schizophrenia failed to respond adequately to antipsychotics and continue to experience debilitating symptoms such as auditory hallucinations and negative symptoms. The development of additional therapeutic approaches for these persistent symptoms constitutes a major goal for patients. Here, we develop a randomized-controlled trial testing the efficacy of high-frequency transcranial random noise stimulation (hf-tRNS) for the treatment of resistant/persistent symptoms of schizophrenia in patients with various profiles of symptoms, cognitive deficits and illness duration. We also aim to investigate the biological and cognitive effects of hf-tRNS and to identify the predictors of clinical response. Methods In a randomized, double-blind, 2-arm parallel-group, controlled, multicentre study, 144 patients with schizophrenia and persistent symptoms despite the prescription of at least one antipsychotic treatment will be randomly allocated to receive either active (n = 72) or sham (n = 72) hf-tRNS. hf-tRNS (100–500 Hz) will be delivered for 20 min with a current intensity of 2 mA and a 1-mA offset twice a day on 5 consecutive weekdays. The anode will be placed over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the cathode over the left temporoparietal junction. Patients’ symptoms will be assessed prior to hf-tRNS (baseline), after the 10 sessions, and at 1-, 3- and 6-month follow-up. The primary outcome will be the number of responders defined as a reduction of at least 25% from the baseline scores on the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) after the 10 sessions. Secondary outcomes will include brain activity and connectivity, source monitoring performances, social cognition, other clinical (including auditory hallucinations) and biological variables, and attitude toward treatment. Discussion The results of this trial will constitute a first step toward establishing the usefulness of hf-tRNS in schizophrenia whatever the stage of the illness and the level of treatment resistance. We hypothesize a long-lasting effect of active hf-tRNS on the severity of schizophrenia symptoms as compared to sham. This trial will also have implications for the use of hf-tRNS as a preventive intervention of relapse in patients with schizophrenia. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02744989.

Abstract
Objectives
This study aims to determine whether patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA), either starting on or changing biological or targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), demonstrate better self-management safety skills three months after receiving a multidisciplinary educational intervention compared to patients receiving usual care. Patients and methods
Between October 2015 and October 2018 , this open-label, randomized-controlled trial included a total of 107 RA patients (27 males, 80 females; mean age: 60.2±10.4 years; range, 54 to 71 years) who were on treatment or in whom treatment was changed with a biological or targeted synthetic DMARD. The patients were randomized into two groups: Group 1 (n=57) received additional intervention with educational DVD and one teleconference session and Group 2 (n=55) received usual care and were offered the intervention at three months. All patients underwent a final visit at six months. At each visit, the patients completed the BioSecure questionnaire measuring the self-care safety skills, a behavioral intention questionnaire, and the Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire (BMQ). Results
No significant difference was observed in the Biosecure score at three months between the two groups (p=0.08). After pooling the first three-month data in Group 1 and the last three-month data in Group 2, the mean score of the BioSecure questionnaire increased to 7.10±0.92 in the group receiving educational intervention (p<0.0001). This increase was maintained at six months in Group 2 (p=0.88). The rate of appropriate behavioral intention increased over time (76% at baseline and 85% at six months for both groups). There was no significant change in the BMQ (p=0.44 to 0.84). Conclusion
The development of an educational DVD followed by a teleconference seem to improve self-care safety skills of the patients in practical situations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The management of diabetes is complex. There is growing recognition of the use of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) as a standardized method of obtaining an outlook on patients' functional status and well-being. However, no systematic reviews have summarized the studies that investigate the measurement properties of diabetes PROMs. OBJECTIVE Our aims were to conduct a systematic review of studies investigating the measurement properties of diabetes PROMs by evaluating the methodological quality and overall level of evidence of these PROMs and to categorize them based on the outcome measures assessed. METHODS This study was guided by the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis) guidelines. Relevant articles were retrieved from the Embase, PubMed, and PsychINFO databases. The PROMs were evaluated with the COSMIN (COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments) guidelines. RESULTS A total of 363 articles evaluating the measurement properties of PROMs for diabetes in the adult population were identified, of which 238 unique PROMs from 248 studies reported in 209 articles were validated in the type 2 diabetes population. PROMs with at least a moderate level of evidence for ≥5 of 9 measurement properties include the Chinese version of the Personal Diabetes Questionnaire (C-PDQ), Diabetes Self-Management Instrument Short Form (DSMI-20), and Insulin Treatment Appraisal Scale in Hong Kong primary care patients (C-ITAS-HK), of which the C-PDQ has a "sufficient (+)" rating for >4 measurement properties. A total of 43 PROMs meet the COSMIN guidelines for recommendation for use. CONCLUSIONS This study identified and synthesized evidence for the measurement properties of 238 unique PROMs for patients with type 2 diabetes and categorized the PROMs according to their outcome measures. These findings may assist clinicians and researchers in selecting appropriate high-quality PROMs for clinical practice and research.

Optimizing Oral Targeted Anticancer Therapies Study for Patients With Solid Cancer: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Medication Adherence Program Along With Systematic Collection and Modeling of Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Data. JMIR Res Protoc 2021; 10:e30090. [PMID: 34185020 PMCID: PMC8278299 DOI: 10.2196/30090] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2021] [Revised: 05/26/2021] [Accepted: 05/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The strengthening or substitution of intravenous cytotoxic chemotherapy cycles by oral targeted anticancer therapies, such as protein kinase inhibitors (PKIs), has provided impressive clinical benefits and autonomy as well as a better quality of life for patients with cancer. Despite these advances, adverse event management at home and medication adherence remain challenging. In addition, PKI plasma concentrations vary significantly among patients with cancer receiving the same dosage, which could explain part of the observed variability in the therapeutic response. Objective The aim of this optimizing oral targeted anticancer therapies (OpTAT) study is to optimize and individualize targeted anticancer treatments to improve patient care and self-monitoring through an interprofessional medication adherence program (IMAP) combined with measurement PKI plasma concentrations. Methods The OpTAT study has two parts: (1) a 1:1 randomized medication adherence program, in which the intervention consists of regular motivational interviewing sessions between the patient and the pharmacist, along with the delivery of PKIs in electronic monitors, and (2) a systematic collection of blood samples and clinical and biological data for combined pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analysis. On the basis of the electronic monitor data, medication adherence will be compared between groups following the three operational definitions: implementation of treatment during the persistent period, persistence with treatment and longitudinal adherence. The implementation will be described using generalized estimating equation models. The persistence of PKI use will be represented using a Kaplan-Meier survival curve. Longitudinal adherence is defined as the product of persistence and implementation. PKI pharmacokinetics will be studied using a population approach. The relationship between drug exposure and efficacy outcomes will be explored using Cox regression analysis of progression-free survival. The relationship between drug exposure and toxicity will be analyzed using a pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model and by logistic regression analysis. Receiver operating characteristic analyses will be applied to evaluate the best exposure threshold associated with clinical benefits. Results The first patient was included in May 2015. As of June 2021, 262 patients had participated in at least one part of the study: 250 patients gave at least one blood sample, and 130 participated in the adherence study. Data collection is in process, and the final data analysis is planned to be performed in 2022. Conclusions The OpTAT study will inform us about the effectiveness of the IMAP program in patients with solid cancers treated with PKIs. It will also shed light on PKI pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties, with the aim of learning how to adapt the PKI dosage at the individual patient level to increase PKI clinical suitability. The IMAP program will enable interprofessional teams to learn about patients’ needs and to consider their concerns about their PKI self-management, considering the patient as an active partner.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of the present study was to test the Common Sense Model of self-regulation (CSM) for its relevance for improving adherence and quality of life in type 2 diabetes. METHODS A sample of 253 patients with type 2 diabetes was recruited. They completed questionnaires about their perceptions regarding diabetes, coping strategies, therapeutic adherence and quality of life. Their HbA1c levels were also collected. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to check the adequacy of our theoretical model (CSM) with the patient data. RESULTS The final model indicated that perceptions were directly and indirectly related to health outcomes through coping strategies and adequately matched the data (χ2 / df = 561/ 220 = 2.55; RMSEA = 0.08; PCFI = 0.66; PGFI = 0.70). Moreover, the model appeared to be identical for both types of treatment (oral and injectable). CONCLUSIONS Illness perceptions and coping strategies, or, more specifically, how patients accept disease and think they are able to manage it, significantly affect therapeutic adherence and quality of life in type 2 diabetes. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS These results pave the way for developing psychological treatments aimed at improving patient acceptance and internal resources (e.g. use of autobiographical memory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The consequences of non-adherence to prescribed cardiovascular drugs can be serious, with cardiovascular complications having been reported in both secondary and primary prevention. The objective of this study was to develop a new scale to assess medication adherence in patients with cardiovascular diseases during their hospitalization. METHODS A cohort of 219 high risk cardiovascular patients was evaluated for this study. Data on reasons for non-adherence were collected using the newly developed Medication Adherence Scale in Cardiovascular disorders (Mascard) and compared with physician assessment during medical consultations and the control of their cardiovascular risk factors. RESULTS The Mascard consists of 5 items has good psychometric properties and validity and correlated with physician assessment and control of cardiovascular risk factors. CONCLUSIONS This rapid and easy to use scale may be useful for health care practitioners in their assessment of medication adherence in inpatients with cardiovascular disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The 'Necessity-Concerns Framework' is an important framework which can support healthcare professionals in targeting patients' medication beliefs and decisions on adherence. Our aim was to determine how the interdependence of 'necessity' and 'concerns' beliefs for medication adherence compares across three chronic conditions. METHODS Patients diagnosed with asthma, cardiovascular conditions or diabetes attending out-patient clinics completed a self-administered questionnaire. The questionnaire gathered information regarding demographics, medication adherence using the 'Tool for Adherence Behaviour Screening', presence of unused medication in households and medication beliefs using the 'Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire-Specific'. Polynomial regression was applied to determine the multidimensional interdependence of 'necessity' and 'concerns' beliefs for adherence. P-values ≤ 0.05 were taken to be significant. RESULTS Confirmatory polynomial regression rejected the differential score model in all three groups. For each condition, exploratory polynomial regression found that linear terms indicated the best fitting model for predicting adherence. In all groups, adherence increased as necessity beliefs increased and concerns decreased. Patients suffering from cardiovascular conditions and diabetes with low necessity and low concerns beliefs reported higher medication adherence compared to those with high necessity and high concerns beliefs. DISCUSSION Alleviating patients' concerns can enhance medication adherence and potentially curb the issue of medication wastage.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to translate the Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire-Specific (BMQ-Specific) for cholesterol-lowering drugs, into the Hungarian, Slovak, Czech and Polish languages and test their reliability with statistical methods. For this purpose, Cronbach's alpha, confirmatory and exploratory factor analyses were conducted. The analyses included 235 Czech, 205 Hungarian, 200 Polish, and 200 Slovak respondents, all of whom were taking cholesterol-lowering drugs. The translations from English into the target languages were always done by two independent translators. As part of the validation process these translations were pilot tested and after the necessary alterations, they were translated back into English by a third translator. After the approval by the creator of the questionnaire, nationwide surveys were conducted in all four countries. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis were exceptionally good for the Czech and Slovak translations, while the Polish and Hungarian translations marginally crossed the predetermined thresholds. With the exception of a single Polish question, the results of the exploratory factor analysis were deemed acceptable. The translated versions of BMQ-Specific are reliable and valid tools to assess patients' beliefs about medication, especially medication adherence among patients taking cholesterol-lowering medication. A comparison between the four countries with this questionnaire is now possible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic disorder requiring long-term treatment. However, up to 20% of patients interrupt temporarily or permanently anti-TNFα. Primary aim was to identify internal and external factors influencing patient's motivation to pursue anti-TNFα in active CD. METHODS This was a French, multicentre, prospective study enrolling CD patients on anti-TNFα therapy since more than 3 months. Patients completed the Satisfaction of Patients with Crohn's Disease questionnaire (SPACE-Q) and other patient-reported-outcome tools at inclusion visit, and after 6 and 12 months. RESULTS A total of 274 patients were included: 146 (53.3%) received adalimumab, while 128 (46.7%) infliximab. Most patients (78%) were still treated with anti-TNFα 12 months after enrolment. Patients' perception of necessity (p = 0.01) and concerns (p<0.0001) regarding medication, evaluated through the Belief about Medicines Questionnaire (BMQ), and expectation confirmation towards treatment convenience (p = 0.02), towards efficacy (p = 0.04), and treatment satisfaction (p = 0.03) according to SPACE-Q, correlated with motivation to pursue treatment. Patients with higher treatment satisfaction (p = 0.0004), stronger belief in treatment necessity (p<0.0001) and fewer concerns (p = 0.0002) were more likely to be very motivated. CONCLUSION Treatment satisfaction, treatment necessity, and concerns are correlated to motivation to pursue anti-TNFα. Specific questions focused on these patients' perceptions could help physicians to identify patients at risk of non-adherence and prevent therapy interruption.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have improved the management and prevention of digestive diseases, leading to a heavy prescription of this therapy. In 2015, nearly one quarter of the French population had consumed a PPI and half of them were long-term users. The main objective of this study was to analyze, in patients hospitalized in several medical departments, the adequacy of long-term PPI prescriptions to recommendations. METHOD The Use and management of proton pump inhibitors: an observational study project (UTOPPIA) is a longitudinal observational study conducted at the University Hospital of Saint-Étienne in the departments of hepato-gastroenterology, infectious and tropical diseases, internal medicine, vascular medicine and nephrology. All patients with PPI treatment on their usual outpatient prescription were interviewed. RESULTS Over a 3-month period, 334 of hospitalized patients (30.7%) had received a long-term PPI prescription and 181 patients (54.2%) could be included in the study for a total of 274 indications. Ninety-nine patients (54.7%) had a long-term PPI prescription in accordance with the recommendations. The most frequent indication (70 prescriptions) was the prescription of an antiplatelet drug or anticoagulant for subjects at high risk of bleeding in 70 prescriptions. Fifty-three PPI treatments were amended during the hospital stay, including 9 discontinuations. The justification for the change was documented in the patients' chart in only 17% of cases. Individual interviews of patients revealed that 75.1% of them were in favour of discontinuing their PPI treatment. CONCLUSIONS About one-third of hospitalized patients in medical wards in France have long-term PPI treatment and half of these prescriptions do not comply with good practice recommendations. A majority of patients report being willing to try to stop PPI therapy.

Beliefs about immunosuppressant medication and correlates in a German kidney transplant population. J Psychosom Res 2020; 132:109989.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A common reason for organ rejection after transplantation is the lack of adherence regarding immunosuppressive medication (ISM). A variety of different aspects can promote non-adherent behavior, including the relationship between perceived benefits and concerns regarding ISM ("necessity-concerns-framework"). Little is known about the variables associated with this framework. METHODS As part of this cross-sectional study, 570 patients after kidney transplantation who participated in a structured multimodal follow-up program (KTx360°) were examined in two transplant centers in Lower Saxony. We used the Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire (BMQ) to evaluate the patients' believes and concerns regarding their ISM. RESULTS The mean age of the participants was 51.9 (SD 14.17) years, 58.4% were men, and 25.8% had ≥12 years of school attendance. The mean time since transplantation was 65.9 months. In patients undergoing kidney transplantation, the perceived benefit of ISM mostly exceeded the concerns. We found an association between lower perceived benefits and greater concerns and lower adherence. Also, a higher perceived necessity was significantly associated with higher age and lower levels of depression and anxiety. Greater concerns were significantly associated with more symptoms of depression and anxiety, lower perceived social support, and lower kidney functioning (eGFR). CONCLUSION Even though patients after kidney transplantation usually acknowledge the importance of their ISM, they still have considerable concerns that are associated with less adherence and various psychosocial risk factors. Further longitudinal studies are needed to assess the extent to which beliefs about medication are variable and can be individually addressed to improve adherence.

Abstract
Background The Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire (BMQ) is the leading tool intended to assess the cognitive representation of medication, however, the validated Polish version of the questionnaire is lacking. Aims To adapt the original BMQ tool to the Polish language (BMQ-PL) and to validate it. Materials and methods The BMQ was adapted to Polish according to widely accepted guidelines. A total of 311 cardiovascular in- and outpatients as well as medical students taking chronic medication were surveyed to assess data-to-model fit and internal consistency of the measure. The criterion-related validity was determined with the use of Polish version of the Adherence to Refills and Medications Scale. Confirmatory and exploratory factor analyses were used, as well as general linear modeling. Results The BMQ-PL exhibited the same factorial structure as the original questionnaire and all the items loaded on their expected factors. Internal consistency of the questionnaire was satisfactory in the group of cardiovascular patients (Cronbach’s alpha ranging from 0.64 to 0.82 and McDonald’s omega from 0.90 to 0.91). There were significant correlations in the predicted directions between all BMQ-PL subscales and the measure of drug adherence in cardiovascular outpatients, but not in inpatients. Medical students may conceptualize the beliefs about medicines in a different way; as a result, a modified version of the BMQ-PL-General, suitable for medically-educated people, was proposed. Conclusion The BMQ-PL exhibits satisfactory proof of validity to be used among cardiovascular patients.

Abstract
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the reliability and validity of Swedish translations of the Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire-Specific (BMQ-Specific) and Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (B-IPQ) for use in adolescents with ADHD.Methods: Forward and backward translations of the BMQ-Specific and B-IPQ scales to Swedish were conducted and reviewed by adolescents with ADHD and professionals. The validity and reliability of both questionnaires were investigated in a cross-sectional study of 101 adolescents (13-17 years) on a long-term prescription of ADHD medication recruited from two child and adolescent psychiatric outpatient clinics in Sweden.Results: Regarding the BMQ-Specific, principal component analysis (PCA) loadings confirmed the previously defined components of Specific-Necessity and Specific-Concern. The PCA for B-IPQ revealed two components, the first one, B-IPQ Consequences, captured questions regarding perceptions of the implication of having ADHD (items 1, 2, 5, 6 and 8) and the second one, B-IPQ-Control, the perceptions of the capability to manage the ADHD disorder (items 3, 4 and 7). The Cronbach alpha coefficients for BMQ-Specific-Necessity scale was α = 0.80, for BMQ-Specific-Concern scale α = 0.75, B-IPQ Consequences α = 0.74 and for B-IPQ-Control α = 0.44.Conclusions: The present results prove the Swedish translation of BMQ-Specific and B-IPQ to be valid and reliable for utilization in adolescents with ADHD. The PCA confirmed the original components for BMQ-Specific and the recent findings of two main B-IPQ components describing emotional and cognitive implications versus the capability for self-care maintenance of ADHD.

Abstract
Patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) have increased risk for complications of cardiovascular disease. Smoking cessation, physical activity, and adherence to treatment are critical for limiting the progression of this chronic disease and improving health-related quality of life in patients with PAD.The aim of the study was to explore patient perceptions of PAD and views on medication, tobacco use, and physical activity. This descriptive, cross-sectional study included patients with PAD admitted to a vascular surgery unit at a tertiary academic medical center (October 2017 to January 2018). Sociodemographic data and medical information were collected during hospitalization. Patients completed the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire, Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire, and Cigarette Dependence Scale. Additional questions examined physical activity. In total, 32 patients participated in the study. About half (16/30) were active smokers, whereas the remainder had smoked in the past. Only half of patients (16/32) considered smoking as contributing to PAD. Most patients (18/30) perceived PAD as a chronic problem, yet 8/30 (27%) considered PAD a rather acute illness. Patients reported significant cognitive and emotional consequences of PAD (mean 6.2 ± 1.8 and 8.3 ± 2.9, maximum score 10, respectively). They rated relatively low perceived personal control (mean 4.8 ± 2.8, maximum score 10) and weak beliefs about the necessity of medication (mean 12.5 ± 3.3, maximum score 25). Most patients (21/32) perceived physical activity as a protective factor for PAD. Patients perceive PAD as having significant impact on their life and report low levels of personal control in managing PAD. Understanding patient health beliefs may inform more tailored therapeutic education and health promoting interventions to limit disease progression.

Abstract
According to the Necessity-Concerns Framework, beliefs about medication necessity and concerns are two core themes from diverse patient medication beliefs across chronic illnesses that may directly influence adherence. Past work has supported associations of necessity and concerns to adherence in the chronic disease literature and in HIV research. However, there has not been a focused review of the literature on associations of necessity and concerns to HIV medication adherence, nor on what variables may influence these associations. This systematic review synthesized findings from 26 studies regarding associations of necessity and concerns to HIV medication adherence. Both beliefs showed small, clinically significant effects on adherence. A subset of studies identified perceptions of healthcare providers as determinants of necessity and concerns beliefs with indirect effects on adherence. Overall, necessity and concerns demonstrated clinically significant associations to adherence among people with HIV.

Abstract
Social behaviour of healthy humans and its neural correlates have been extensively studied in social neuroscience and neuroeconomics. Whereas it is well established that several types of epilepsies, such as frontal lobe epilepsy, lead to social cognitive impairments, experimental evidence on how these translate into behavioural symptoms is scarce. Furthermore, it is unclear whether social cognitive or behavioural disturbances have an impact on therapy adherence, which is critical for effective disease management, but generally low in these patients. In order to investigate the relationship between social cognition, social behaviour, and therapy adherence in patients with frontal lobe epilepsies (FLE), we designed a study combining conventional neuropsychological with behavioural economic and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) methodology. Fifteen patients and 15 healthy controls played a prisoners' dilemma game (an established game to operationalize social behaviour) while undergoing fMRI. Additionally, social cognitive, basic neuropsychological variables, and therapy adherence were assessed. Our results implicate that social behaviour is indeed affected and can be quantified using neuroeconomic methods in patients with FLE. Impaired social behaviour in these patients might be a consequence of altered brain activation in the medial prefrontal cortex and play a role in low therapy adherence. Finally, this study serves as an example of how to integrate neuroeconomic methods in neurology.

Abstract
PURPOSE To explore beliefs about medicines and information needs among pregnant women visiting a tertiary hospital in Belgium and to identify patient characteristics associated with beliefs about medicines. METHODS A cross-sectional study was performed at the outpatient obstetrics clinic of the University Hospital Leuven, Belgium, between December 2016 and March 2017. All pregnant women ≥ 18 years were invited to complete a web survey. The survey consisted of general and pregnancy-specific statements of the "Beliefs about Medicines" questionnaire and questions about information needs. Descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, Fisher's exact tests, and multinomial logistic regression were used to analyze the findings. RESULTS In total, 372 pregnant women participated. Most women showed positive attitudes towards medicines in general. However, almost 90% of women agreed to have a higher threshold to use medicines during pregnancy compared with non-pregnant situations. Likewise, 40% preferred natural remedies during pregnancy. Education in healthcare and education level were the main determinants associated with beliefs, with highly educated women showing a higher threshold to use medicines during pregnancy (p = 0.005). Most women searched online for pregnancy-related information (85%) and for information about medicines (74%). However, less than one-third discussed online-retrieved information with healthcare professionals (HCPs). CONCLUSIONS Pregnant women visiting a tertiary hospital in Belgium showed a higher threshold to use medicines during pregnancy compared with non-pregnant situations and had high information needs, including for information about medicines during pregnancy. HCPs should be aware of women's individual beliefs, guide them towards reliable websites, and discuss online-retrieved information during counseling.

Abstract
We aimed to contrast implicit and explicit measures of attitudes towards complementary and alternative medicines, to determine which best predicts medicine adherence. 117 participants from Université Grenoble Alpes completed online measures of attitudes towards complementary and alternative medicines, including implicit measures (Affect Misattribution Procedure (AMP); Implicit Association Test (IAT)), and explicit measures (Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire (BMQ), modified explicit AMP); and self-reported medicine adherence (Medication Adherence Scale (MARS); Probabilistic Medication Adherence Scale (ProMAS)). AMP measures of implicit and explicit attitudes predicted beliefs toward medicine and medicines adherence. Models including implicit measures were stronger than models with explicit measures alone. Further, the AMP predicted beliefs toward medicine as well as medicine adherence, and the AMP was a stronger predictor compared to the IAT, although the IAT predicted adherence. These preliminary findings suggest that 'hot' implicit attitudes are a useful predictor of people's medicine choices, and that the AMP outperforms the IAT.

Abstract
Objective: The main objective of the present study is to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire-specific among asthma patients; and to assess the association between patients' belief and adherence to inhaled corticosteroid therapy. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was carried out in the asthma clinic of Zhongshan Hospital, to Fudan University (Shanghai, China) between April 2016 and March 2018. The Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire-specific was translated into Chinese according to international guidelines. Internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and confirmatory factor analysis were calculated to validate the Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire-specific. The relationship between the adherence and the belief subscale were assessed using Kruskal-Wallis test. Results: Two hundred and seventeen patients were recruited in this study. The Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire-specific was deemed reliable based on the results of Cronbach's alpha coefficient and test-retest intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC, ICC= 0.759). Confirmatory factor analysis showed acceptable model fit for the two-factor model. Patients' compliance was closely related to their belief about inhaled corticosteroid. The adherence rates were highest for the accepting groups, and lowest for the skeptical groups. Higher adherence was significantly associated with higher necessity-concerns differential (p = .001) and lower concern (p = .004). Conclusions: The Chinese version of the Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire-specific can be used as a reliable tool by the clinicians to identify beliefs and behaviors of individual to improve adherence in Chinese patients.

Abstract
Objectives Thanks to the success of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART), HIV‐infected patients can have almost a normal life expectancy. This has resulted in an aging HIV‐infected population with other chronic comorbidities such as cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis, and depression. Our hypothesis is that patients' perceptions of and attitudes towards their cART, which is perceived as crucial to their survival, differ from their beliefs about their co‐treatments, and this may have an impact on their medication adherence. Methods We used the French version of the Beliefs about Medicine Questionnaire (BMQ‐f) to measure the perceptions of patients about their co‐treatments and the Beliefs about Medicine Questionnaire for Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (BMQ‐HAART) to measure their beliefs about their cART in a representative sample (n = 150) of patients enrolled in the Swiss HIV Cohort Study (SHCS) and followed at the Infectious Disease Service at the University Hospital in Lausanne, Switzerland. The survey was administered to all eligible patients by the order of their scheduled appointments at the end of their medical visit. The BMQ comprises two subscores: Specific‐Necessity (5 identical items in BMQ‐f and BMQ‐HAART) and Specific‐Concerns (also 5 identical items in BMQ‐f and BMQ‐HAART). The subscores were standardized by dividing the score scale by the number of questions in the scale, resulting in a range of responses between 1 (low) and 5 (high). Self‐reported medication adherence was measured using the SHCS Adherence Questionnaire (SHCS‐AQ). Adherence was defined as not missing any dose or missing one dose of the treatment in the past 4 weeks. Sociodemographic variables were retrieved by reviewing the SHCS database. Results A response rate of 73% (109 of 150) was achieved. A total of 105 patients were included in the analysis: their median age was 56 [interquartile range (IQR) 51, 63] years and 74 were male (70%). Eighty‐seven patients (83%) were adherent to cART and 75 (71%) were adherent to their co‐treatments (P = 0.0001). The standardized mean responses for the BMQ Specific‐Necessity subscores were 4.46 [standard deviation (SD): 0.58] and 2.86 (SD: 1.02) for cART and co‐treatments, respectively (P < 0.0001). For Specific‐Concerns, the standardized mean responses were 2.9 (SD: 1.02) for cART and 4.09 (SD: 1.02) (P < 0.0001) for co‐treatments. cART and co‐treatment concerns increased as the number of co‐treatments increased (P = 0.03 and P < 0.0001, respectively). Conclusions Patients had higher Necessity and lower Concerns scores for their cART in comparison with their co‐treatments. A higher percentage of patients reported being adherent to cART compared with the co‐treatments that they reported they were most likely to miss. Further research using a bigger sample size and more objective measures of adherence is needed to explore the association between adherence and patients' perceptions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aims of our study were to explore the factor structure and psychometric properties of the French version of the Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire (BMQ) in patients with severe mental illness and in specific populations of patients with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder. METHODS A cross-sectional study including patients with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder was conducted (n = 150). Principal component analysis (PCA), reliability and validity of the French version of the BMQ were performed. RESULTS PCA revealed a two-factor structure similar to the original structure for the BMQ-Specific scale but only a one-component solution for the BMQ-General scale in both the total sample and the three subgroups. These subscales have satisfactory internal consistency. Validity was supported by the significant correlations of all BMQ subscales with the Drug Attitude Inventory. CONCLUSION The French version of the BMQ appears as a three-dimensional scale and presents satisfactory psychometric properties for use in patients with severe mental illness as well as specific populations of patients with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low levels of adherence to medication prescribed to treat and manage chronic disease may lead to maladaptive health outcomes. Theory-based, easy-to-administer interventions that promote patients' effective self-regulation of their medication-taking behaviour are needed if adherence is to be maximised. We tested the effectiveness of an intervention adopting planning techniques to promote medication adherence. METHODS Outpatients with cardiovascular disease (N = 71) were allocated to either an experimental condition, in which participants were asked to form implementation intentions and coping plans related to their treatment, or to a no-planning control condition, in which participants received no treatment. Patients also completed self-report measures of medication adherence, self-efficacy, and beliefs in medication necessity and concerns. Measures were administered at baseline and at 6-week follow-up. RESULTS Results revealed no overall main effect for the intervention on medication adherence. Post-hoc moderator analyses revealed that the intervention was effective in patients with lower necessity beliefs compared to those with higher necessity beliefs. CONCLUSION While current findings have promise in demonstrating the conditional effects of planning interventions, there is a need to replicate these findings by manipulating planning and beliefs independently and testing their direct and interactive effects on medication adherence.
