Abstract
BACKGROUND Vascular anomalies (VAs) are increasingly being treated with PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway inhibitors. These drugs have immunosuppressive properties and thus theoretically overexpose patients to opportunistic infections, especially Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). PJP prophylaxis use lacks consensus. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of PJP in patients receiving mTOR/PI3K/AKT inhibitors for VAs and determine any indication for pneumocystis prophylaxis in this population. METHODS The study was conducted in 2 parts: (1) we sent a survey to a panel of international experts of VAs asking about their use of pneumocystis prophylaxis drugs and (2) we performed a systematic review of the literature of all published cases of patients receiving these drugs for VA to estimate the prevalence of PJP in this population. RESULTS Answers from 68 experts were analyzed: 21 (30.9%) answered they always add PJP prophylaxis when prescribing mTOR inhibitors, 20 (29.4%) case-by-case, and 27 (39.7%) never. For the systematic review, among 3,053 reports screened, 217 were included involving 1,189 patients (1,143 received sirolimus, 38 everolimus, 4 alpelisib, 4 miransertib). Among the 1,189 cases, 2 (0.2%) PJP were reported: one under sirolimus and one under everolimus. Thus, the prevalence of PJP was estimated at 0.88 cases/1,000 patients under sirolimus (95% CI: -0.84 to 2.59) and 26.31 cases/1,000 under everolimus (95% CI: -24.58 to 77.18). Patients with PJP never received prophylaxis drugs. We found no PJP cases under alpelisib and miransertib. PJP prophylaxis was given in 218 (18.3%) cases, more frequently for children (91.3 vs. 77.2% in the non-prophylaxis group, p = 0.012), mostly trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (186 patients, 85.3%). CONCLUSION Our study shows that even if PJP is a rare event, it may occur in patients with VAs treated with an mTOR inhibitor. Although our results cannot allow for revising guidelines, prophylaxis with TMP-SMX might be appropriate for a subgroup of patients with risk factors for PJP.

Abstract
Phosphorus is an essential element for all living organisms and is involved in various biological pathways. A severe hypophosphatemia can lead to serious complications (acute heart or respiratory failure, rhabdomyolysis, hemolysis…) and increases mortality in patients at risk. Various drugs are known to induce hypophosphatemia through various mechanisms. The aim of this study was to highlight the main drugs associated with hypophosphatemia and to deduce the underlying mechanisms based on a descriptive analysis and a case/non-case analysis using the cases of drug-induced hypophosphatemia reported to the French Pharmacovigilance Network. A total of 368 cases of hypophosphatemia were included in the study. Patients' mean age was 52±18 years. One hundred and ninety-one cases (52%) were serious including 131 (36%) hospitalizations. The median value of serum phosphorus level was 0.54mmol/L [0.40-0.66] (n=309). Those 368 cases corresponded to 185 different suspected substances among which the most frequent drugs were tenofovir disoproxil (n=175; 48%), ferric carboxymaltose (n=29; 8%), denosumab (n=16; 4%), zoledronic acid (n=14; 4%) and hydrochlorothiazide (n=10; 3%). For these five drugs, a significant disproportionality was found. Tenofovir-disoproxil related hypophosphatemia occurred more than one year after its introduction, and a renal tubulopathy (Fanconi's syndrome) was reported in 44 cases (25%). Hypophosphatemia related to iron carboxymaltose occurred within a median of 20 days after injection and was mostly severe. Mechanism included the fibroblast growth factor 23 which can be measured to confirm drug origin. Concerning anti-osteoporosis treatments, hypophosphatemia could be explained by their mechanism of action (abrupt increase of parathormone induced by hypocalcemia) but the patient history (malignancy condition) was a major bias. For hydrochlorothiazide, hyphosphatemia was often moderate, associated with other electrolytic disturbances and occurred during a long-term treatment. Awareness of healthcare professionals is essential to detect as soon as possible hypophosphatemia and its complications related to these drugs.

Abstract
AIMS In the last French study in 2007, the incidence of hospital admissions (HAs) related to adverse drug reactions (ADRs) was 3.6%. The objective was to assess the current ADR-HA incidence in France and to describe both its characteristics and preventability. METHODS A prospective multicentre study was conducted among randomly selected French public hospital medical wards (April-July 2018). Patients admitted during a week period were included. ADR-HA cases were collected by the French Regional Pharmacovigilance Centres network. An independent committee validated potential cases and ADR preventability. RESULTS ADR-HA incidence was 8.5% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 7.6-9.4%), increasing with age (3.3% [95%CI: 1.8-5.5%] ≤16 y vs. 10.6% [95%CI: 9.3-12.0%] ≥65 y). The most common ADRs were haemorrhagic events (8.8%), haematological disorders (6.5%), acute renal failure (6.3%), fluid and electrolyte disorders (6.0%), and falls (5.2%). New drugs were involved: targeted therapies (22.8% of antineoplastics), direct oral anticoagulants (29.6% of antithrombotics) and incretin-based drugs (20.0% of antidiabetics). ADRs were preventable in 16.1% of cases because the drugs involved had not been used in accordance with monographies, package leaflets or other therapeutic guidelines. The main situations of noncompliance addressed either dose or duration of use (27.9%), warning (23.2%), use precaution (18.6%) and inappropriate self-medication or misuse by patients (11.6%). CONCLUSION In France, ADR-HA incidence dramatically increased over the last decade. A significant proportion was related to new pharmacological classes and considered as preventable. These findings should lead to in-depth thought on preventive actions on at-risk drug classes.

Abstract
ObjectiveIgA vasculitis (IgAV) can occur after vaccination. We aimed to assess a potential safety signal on the association between COVID-19 vaccines and IgAV.MethodsCases of IgAV involving COVID-19 vaccines were retrieved in Vigibase. Disproportionate reporting was assessed using the Bayesian information component with all other drugs and vaccines as control groups.ResultsThree hundred and thirty de novo IgAV from 24 countries were included, mostly in United States (193/330, 58%). Fifty per cent were female (163/328), median age was 32 years [interquartile range (IQR), 15-59] of which 33% (84/254) were young (1-17 years). Median time to onset of IgAV was 7 days (IQR, 2-16; n=256) and 85% of patients (280/330) were vaccinated with mRNA vaccines. Seriousness was reported in 188 cases (58%). Ninety-five recovered (65%) and 2 died (2%). A positive rechallenge was reported for 3 of 4 patients (75%).A total of 996 cases of IgAV were identified with other vaccines. There was a small significant increase in IgAV reporting with COVID-19 vaccines compared with all other drugs (IC 0.22, credibility interval (CrI) from 0.04 to 0.35). No disproportionality signal was found between COVID-19 and other vaccines (IC -1.42, CrI from -1.60 to -1.28]). There was no significant difference between mRNA vaccines and viral vector COVID-19 vaccines. Men and children had a significant overreporting of IgAV compared with women and adults, respectively.ConclusionThis study, provides reassuring results regarding the safety of COVID-19 vaccines in the occurrence of IgAV compared to other vaccines.

Abstract
On March 16, 2020, the French Society of Pharmacology and Therapeutics put online a national Question and Answer (Q&A) website, https://sfpt-fr.org/covid19 on the proper use of drugs during the COVID‐19 pandemic. The working group ‘Drugs and COVID‐19’ was composed of a scientific council, an editorial team, and experts in the field. The first questions were posted online during the first evening of home‐confinement in France, March 17, 2020. Six weeks later, 140 Q&As have been posted. Questions on the controversial use of hydroxychloroquine and to a lesser extent concerning azithromycin have been the most consulted Q&As. Q&As have been consulted 226 014 times in 41 days. This large visibility was obtained through an early communication on Twitter, Facebook, traditional print, and web media. In addition, an early communication through the French Ministry of Health and the French National Agency for Medicines and Health Products Safety ANSM had a large impact in terms of daily number of views. There is a pressing need to sustain a public drug information service combining the expertise of scholarly pharmacology societies, pharmacovigilance network, and the Ministry of Health to quickly provide understandable, clear, expert answers to the general population’s concerns regarding COVID‐19 and drug use and to counter fake news.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE(S) To describe the features of etonogestrel implant (Nexplanon and Implanon) migration into the pulmonary vasculature and to estimate its incidence in France. STUDY DESIGN We retrospectively reviewed French cases of implant migration into the pulmonary vasculature reported up to 2018. Patient clinical data were collected. The annual incidence of migration was estimated from the number of cases reported and number of implants sold. RESULTS Twenty-seven cases of migration into the pulmonary vasculature were identified. In 19 cases (70%) it was stated that this was into the pulmonary artery (nine into the left branch, four into the right branch and six unspecified) and in the other eight cases (30%) it was it not specified whether this was into the pulmonary artery or one of its branches. The migration was discovered following a request for implant removal in 59% of cases, following respiratory complaints in 24%, and because the implant was no longer palpable in 17%. In the 24 cases for which information on removal (or not) was available, the implant was removed in 15 (60% by an endovascular procedure and 40% by invasive surgery); in the remainder it was left in situ. The incidence of migration into the pulmonary vasculature was 1.23 per 100,000 implants sold [95% CI 0.25-3.58] in 2014, increasing to 3.17 per 100,000 implants sold [1.37-6.24] in 2017. In 2016, the French National Agency for Medicines and Health Products Safety (ANSM) had recommended performing a systematic search for non-palpable implants, including at thorax level. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of migration into the pulmonary vasculature is low. Nonetheless, because the consequences are potentially serious, in December 2019 the ANSM made recommendations to reduce this risk.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Rituximab induced serum sickness (RISS) is a rare delayed hypersensitivity reaction. The aim of this study was to describe the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of the RISS cases reported in France. METHOD Serum sickness cases involving rituximab were identified from the French PharmacoVigilance Database from 1998 to 2016. RESULTS We analyzed 37 cases of RISS. Rituximab was prescribed for an autoimmune disease in 78% of cases. Serum sickness occurred mainly after the first injection (54%) with a median time to onset of 12 days. The most frequent manifestations were rheumatologic symptoms (92%), fever (87%), and skin lesions (78%). The incidence was significantly higher when rituximab was used for autoimmune diseases than for a hematological malignancies. Taking into account the existence of a Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) as the indication of rituximab or as a comorbidity, the incidence of RISS in patients with SLE was even higher. DISCUSSION We report on the largest series of RISS studied to date and confirm that this reaction preferentially occurs in patients with autoimmune disease, especially SLE. This may be due to B-cell lysis, leading to the release of intracellular antigens into the serum and subsequent antigen-antibody complex formation, especially in patients with elevated autoantibody production. This could also explain why RISS often occurred after a single injection. CONCLUSION Patients generally recovered from RISS rapidly without obvious benefit from corticosteroid therapy. The risk of recurrence should prompt clinicians to question the use of rituximab after an episode of RISS.

Abstract
Strategies for diets in chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) are controversial. This systematic review assessed the interest in diet for managing CSU. We searched for original reports in MEDLINE, EMBASE, CENTRAL and LILACS. Among the 278 reports screened, 20 were included, involving 1,734 patients. Reports described 3 types of systematic diet: pseudoallergen-free diet (n = 1,555 patients), low-histamine diet (n = 223) and diet without fish products (n = 47), which induced complete remission in 4.8%, 11.7% and 10.6% of patients, respectively, and partial remission in 37.0%, 43.9% and 4.3%. Eight reports described personalized exclusion diets (66 patients) adapted to symptoms/allergological test results and led to complete remission in 74.6% of patients, although the diagnosis of CSU was doubtful. No comparative randomized studies of diets were available. The only randomized studies were based on oral provocation tests with the suspected responsible diet. Population and outcomes were heterogeneous. In conclusion, there is evidence for the benefit of diets in CSU only in individual patients with clinical symptoms. However, the level of evidence is low for the benefit of systematic diets in CSU because systematic double-blind controlled trials of diet are lacking.

Abstract
The French College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (CNGOF) releases its first global recommendations for clinical practice in contraception, to provide physicians with an updated synthesis of available data as a basis for their practice. The French Health Authority (HAS) methodology was used. Twelve practical issues were selected by the organizing committee and the task force members. The available literature was screened until December 2017, and allowed the release of evidence-based, graded recommendations. This synthesis is issued from 12 developed texts, previously reviewed by experts and physicians from public and private practices, with an experience in the contraceptive field. Male and female sterilization, as well as the use of hormonal treatments without contraceptive label were excluded from the field of this analysis. Specific practical recommendations on the management of contraception prescription, patient information including efficacy, risks, and benefits of the different contraception methods, follow up, intrauterine contraception, emergency contraception, local and natural methods, contraception in teenagers and after 40, contraception in vascular high-risk situations, and in case of cancer risk are provided. The short/mid-term future of contraception mostly relies on improving the use of currently available methods. This includes reinforced information for users and increased access to contraception for women, whatever the social and clinical context. That is the goal of these recommendations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Slow-flow superficial vascular malformations (VMs) are rare congenital anomalies that can be responsible for pain and functional impairment. Currently, we have no guidelines for their management, which can involve physical bandages, sclerotherapy, surgery, anti-inflammatory or anti-coagulation drugs or no treatment. The natural history is progressive and worsening. Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine kinase that acts as a master switch in cell proliferation, apoptosis, metabolism and angio/lymphangiogenesis. Sirolimus directly inhibits the mTOR pathway, thereby inhibiting cell proliferation and angio/lymphangiogenesis. Case reports and series have reported successful use of sirolimus in children with different types of vascular anomalies, with heterogeneous outcomes. OBJECTIVE The objective of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sirolimus in children with complicated superficial slow-flow VMs. METHODS/DESIGN This French multicenter randomized observational-phase, phase 2 trial aims to include 50 pediatric patients 6 to 18 years old who have slow-flow (lymphatic, venous or lymphatico-venous) voluminous complicated superficial VM. Patients will be followed up for 12 months. All patients will start with an observational period (no treatment). Then at a time randomly selected between month 4 and month 8, they will switch to the experimental period (switch time), when they will receive sirolimus until month 12. Each child will undergo MRI 3 times: at baseline, at the switch time, and at month 12. For both periods (observational and treatment), we will calculate the relative change in volume of the VM divided by the study period duration. This relative change weighted by the study period duration will constitute the primary endpoint. VM will be measured by MRI images, which will be centralized and interpreted by the same radiologist who will be blinded to the study period. Hence, each patient will be his/her own control. Secondary outcomes will include assessment of safety and efficacy by viewing standardized digital photographs and according to the physician, the patient or proxy; impact on quality of life; and evolution of biological makers (coagulation factors, vascular endothelial growth factor, tissue factor). DISCUSSION The main benefit of the study will be to resolve uncertainty concerning the efficacy of sirolimus in reducing the volume of VMs and limiting related complications and the safety of the drug in children with slow-flow VMs. This trial design is interesting in these rare conditions because all included patients will have the opportunity to receive the drug and the physician can maintain it after the end of the protocol if is found efficient (which would not be the case in a classical cross-over study). TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02509468 , first received: 28 July 2015. EU Clinical Trials Register EudraCT Number: 2015-001096-43.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is not frequent in children. Management guidelines have been developed for adults and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) included teenagers aged 12-18, but data for children under age 12 are limited. We performed a systematic review to assess comorbidities in children <12 years old with CSU and the efficacy and safety of treatments. METHODS We searched for original articles of epidemiologic and treatment data in children <12 years old with CSU that were published from 2005 to July 2016 in MEDLINE, EMBASE, CENTRAL, and LILACS. Article selection and data extraction were performed in duplicate. RESULTS Our systematic review included 9 reports on epidemiologic data (633 children). Five comorbidities and laboratory anomalies associated with CSU found were atopy (28.1%), positive autologous serum skin test (36.8%), thyroid biologic anomalies (6.4%) and detectable antinuclear antigen (10.4%), seroprevalence for Helicobacter pylori (21.1%), low vitamin D level (69.1%), and psychiatric disorders (70.4%). Only one study allowed for comparison with a control group. Our review included 10 studies (322 children), describing 5 different drug families, mostly H1-antihistamines (n = 297). One randomized controlled study compared single-dose rupatadine with single-dose desloratadine and placebo. Cyclosporine was effective and had no adverse effects in 18 children. Omalizumab, montelukast, and cefuroxime were reported in very small series (5, 1, and 1 patients). CONCLUSIONS H1-antihistamines are effective for CSU in children <12 years old, with reassuring safety data at licensed doses. Cyclosporine seems effective, but the level of evidence is low.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The link between isotretinoin, treatment of a severe form of acne, and psychiatric disorders remains controversial, as acne itself could explain the occurrence of psychiatric disorders. This study aims at assessing the disproportionality of psychiatric adverse events reported with isotretinoin in the French National PharmacoVigilance Database, compared with other systemic acne treatments and systemic retinoids. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data were extracted from the French National PharmacoVigilance Database for systemic acne treatments, systemic retinoids and drugs used as comparators. Each report was subjected to double-blind analysis by two psychiatric experts. A disproportionality analysis was performed, calculating the number of psychiatric ADRs divided by the total number of notifications for each drug of interest. RESULTS Concerning acne systemic treatments: all 71 reports of severe psychiatric disorders involved isotretinoin, the highest proportion of mild/moderate psychiatric adverse events was reported with isotretinoin (14.1%). Among systemic retinoids, the highest proportion of severe and mild/moderate psychiatric events occurred with isotretinoin and alitretinoin. CONCLUSION Our study raises the hypothesis that psychiatric disorders associated with isotretinoin are related to a class effect of retinoids, as a signal emerges for alitretinoin. Complementary studies are necessary to estimate the risk and further determine at-risk populations.

Abstract
Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors are a promising new treatment in vascular anomalies, but no published randomized controlled trials are available. The aim of this systematic review of all reported cases was to assess the efficacy and safety of mTOR inhibitors in all vascular anomalies, except cancers, in children and adults. In November 2014 MEDLINE, CENTRAL, LILACS and EMBASE were searched for studies of mTOR inhibitors in any vascular condition, except for malignant lesions, in humans. Fourteen publications and 9 posters, with data on 25 and 59 patients, respectively, all < 18 years old were included. Of these patients, 35.7% (n = 30) had vascular tumours, and 64.3% (n = 54) had malformations. Sirolimus was the most frequent mTOR inhibitor used (98.8%, n = 83). It was efficient in all cases, at a median time of 2 weeks (95% confidence interval 1-10 weeks). Sirolimus was well tolerated, the main side-effect being mouth sores, which led to treatment withdrawal in one case. The dosage of sirolimus was heterogeneous, the most common being 1.6 mg/m2/day.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to assess the incidence of adverse effects (AE) reported with etonogestrel contraceptive implant in France (Implanon® and Nexplanon®). MATERIALS AND METHODS All cases of AE or unintended pregnancies reported to health authorities or to the firm were analyzed. RESULTS During 10 years, 5433 AE and 789 unintended pregnancies were reported. Only 388 (7 %) were serious. There were 1137 reports of difficulties to remove, failure to locate or migration, 430 of insertion difficulties and 203 of deformation or expulsion of the implant. Among other AE, the most common were 1694 gynecological AE, 524 skin reactions and 437 metabolic AE. Since the marketing of Nexplanon® which causes less deep insertions, the incidence of migrations, removal or insertion difficulties has decreased overall (0.92 vs. 1.31/1000 patients), particularly the incidence of removal difficulties, location failures or migrations (0.12 vs 1.01/1000). The infrequent but serious AE were infectious complications at the implant site and pregnancies. When the circumstances of the pregnancy were known, the contraceptive failure was due to the apparent inefficiency of the implant (n=224), to a technique failure (n=203) or to a drug-drug interaction (n=59). CONCLUSION This study confirms that AE of this implant are frequent but not serious, except for the pregnancies. The incidence of complications related to insertion decreased with Nexplanon®. Among other preventable AE, unintended pregnancies due to a drug-drug interaction would require to be better known by the practitioner.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Few data exist regarding the systemic safety of intravitreal antivascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) monoclonal antibody (mAb). OBJECTIVE To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the risk of major cardiovascular and nonocular hemorrhagic events in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetes mellitus-associated macular edema (DME), or retinal vein occlusions (RVOs) who receive intravitreal anti-VEGF mAbs. DATA SOURCES The MEDLINE and Cochrane Central databases were searched for potentially eligible studies. STUDY SELECTION Randomized clinical trials comparing ranibizumab or bevacizumab with no anti-VEGF treatment, as well as those comparing ranibizumab with bevacizumab in patients with AMD, DME, or RVOs. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS We used a fixed-effects model and report the results as odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CIs. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Primary end points were major cardiovascular and nonocular hemorrhagic events. Secondary end points were all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, stroke, myocardial infarction, venous thromboembolic events (VTEs), and hypertension. RESULTS Twenty-one trials that evaluated 9557 patients were retrieved. Anti-VEGF mAbs did not significantly increase the risk of major cardiovascular events (OR, 1.18; 95% CI, 0.81-1.71) or nonocular hemorrhagic events (OR, 1.42; 95% CI, 0.95-2.13) in treatment groups compared with control populations. Bevacizumab did not increase the risk of major cardiovascular events (OR, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.59-1.52) or nonocular hemorrhagic events (OR, 2.56; 95% CI, 0.78-8.38) compared with ranibizumab, but significantly increased VTEs (OR, 3.45; 95% CI, 1.25-9.54). Subgroup analysis showed a significant increase of nonocular hemorrhagic events in patients with AMD in ranibizumab vs control trials (OR, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.01-2.44). Anti-VEGF mAbs did not significantly increase overall mortality, cardiovascular mortality, stroke, myocardial infarction, VTEs, or hypertension. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE We showed that intravitreal anti-VEGF-mAbs were not associated with significant increases in major cardiovascular or nonocular hemorrhagic events, but studies and meta-analyses were not powered enough to correctly assess these risks. Increased risks of VTEs with bevacizumab and nonocular hemorrhagic events in older patients with AMD with ranibizumab should be cautiously interpreted because more safety data are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Romiplostim and eltrombopag, the two marketed thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RAs), have distinct binding sites and might have distinct pharmacodynamic mechanisms. The aim of this study was to compare their adverse drug reaction (ADR) patterns. METHODS We selected in the French PharmacoVigilance Database all ADRs associated with TPO-RAs from TPO-RA marketing until the 31st of December 2013. Medical charts were reviewed. We conducted disproportionality analyses comparing romiplostim exposure in the reports of a given ADR pattern (thrombosis, neurological, cutaneous, gastrointestinal or hematological) to romiplostim exposure in all other TPO-RA-related ADR reports. Reporting Odds Ratios (RORs) were adjusted for age and gender. We also compared the number of reports of a given ADR pattern per million daily defined doses (DDDs) dispensed in France during the study period. RESULTS We described 45 reports (53 ADRs) with romiplostim and 26 reports (37 ADRs) with eltrombopag. There were 19 venous thromboses. At least one other risk factor was present in 83.3% of the cases. Ten (55.6%) patients had been splenectomized previously. There were eight arterial thromboses. Another risk factor was noticed in all cases. There was no signal for an excess risk of thrombosis with romiplostim versus eltrombopag (ROR: 1.45, 95% CI [0.48-4.45]). There was a signal for a higher risk of gastrointestinal ADRs with eltrombopag (ROR: 30.28, 95% CI [3.23-383.86]) and of hematological ADRs with romiplostim (ROR: 14.36, 95% CI [1.73-119.08]). Dispensing data-adjusted comparisons led to similar results. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests different ADR patterns between romiplostim and eltrombopag.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In October 2009, in the context of an A(H1N1)v2009 influenza pandemic, a vaccination campaign was launched in France, in which one of the priority groups was pregnant women, on account of the high risk of developing complications following infection by this virus. OBJECTIVE The aim of this multicentric, prospective, observational study was to assess safety and pregnancy outcomes in a cohort of pregnant women when receiving the A(H1N1)v2009 influenza pandemic vaccine. METHODS This was a prospective study that followed up pregnant women recruited mainly in vaccination centres and maternity departments. Following the expected delivery date, follow-up data were collected concerning the delivery, the infant, and, if appropriate, the reasons why the pregnancy did not reach its term. RESULTS Between 1 November 2009 and 31 March 2010, 2,415 pregnant women were included at the time of vaccination; 97.6 % of women received a vaccine without adjuvant and 2.4 % received an adjuvanted vaccine. Ninety-two (3.9 %) women were vaccinated during the first trimester of pregnancy, 1,090 (46.5 %) during the second trimester, and 1,162 (49.6 %) during the third trimester. One hundred and thirty-three adverse events (5.5 % of women) were reported, of which 12 were unexpected or serious. There were 2,246 (93.0 %) known pregnancy outcomes with 12 spontaneous abortions (0.5 %), 6 stillbirths (0.3 %), and 4 therapeutic abortions (0.2 %). There were 65 neonates with congenital anomalies, among which 31 were major. But only one congenital malformation (1.4 %) was reported for the 92 women vaccinated in their first trimester. Of the women, 93.3 % were delivered full term and 6.7 % preterm. For 96 (4.2 %) neonates, a disorder was reported in the neonatal period and 130 (5.6 %) were transferred to the neonatology department. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that exposure to the A(H1N1)v2009 pandemic influenza vaccine during pregnancy does not increase the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. However, because of the relatively small number of women exposed during the first trimester, other studies are needed to exclude an increased risk of malformation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Study of side effects (SE) associated with strontium ranelate required by the French Drug agency (Afssaps). METHOD SE associated with strontium ranelate and spontaneously reported until March 2009 to the manufacturer or to the French Regional Pharmacovigilance Centers and the periodic safety reports have been analyzed. Utilisation and sales data have been obtained from the manufacturer. RESULTS During the 3 years of the study, 844 SE have been reported in France in patients treated with strontium ranelate. The 199 severe SE are cardiovascular (52%), cutaneous (26%), hepatodigestive (6%), neurological (5%), haematological (3%), osteomuscular (3%) and various (3%). Venous thromboembolic events (VTEE) are the most frequent cardiovascular SE (93/104) with an incidence of 1/31,052 months of treatment. At least one VTEE risk factor is present in 26 (28%) patients. DRESS syndrome which median delay of advent is 35 days is the most frequent cutaneous SE (19/51 SE) with an incidence of 1/13,725 months of treatment. The 14 severe hepatodigestive SE are hepatitis (n=5), pancreatitis (n=2) and various others SE (n=7). The 10 severe neurological SE are confusion/amnesia (n=5), convulsions (n=4) and parenthesis (n=1). The seven severe haematological SE are pancytopenia (n=5), erythroblastopenia (n=1) and thrombocytopenic purpura (n=1). Among the seven deaths, only three (two pulmonary embolisms, one DRESS syndrome) are attributable to strontium ranelate. Apart from the severe SE, 685 SE have also been reported because strontium ranelate was the only drug with an imputability "suspect". DISCUSSION Anti-fractural effect of strontium ranelate is at least as equal as those of bisphosphonates. Its usual SE are benign but two severe risks of strontium ranelate i.e. VTEE and DRESS syndrome are confirmed. The profile of tolerability, different from the one of bisphosphonates makes strontium ranelate as an alternative when bisphosphonates are not recommended or contraindicated (renal insufficiency for example). CONCLUSION If DRESS syndrome is unpredictable, the one of VTEE could be reduced by a strontium ranelate contraindication for patients with a history of VTEE and by stopping the drug if a new VTEE risk situation happens.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We aimed to establish whether the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) during evolving bacterial community-acquired infection in adults is associated with severe sepsis or septic shock. METHODS We conducted a multicentre case-control study in eight intensive care units. Cases were all adult patients admitted for severe sepsis or septic shock due to a bacterial community-acquired infection. Control individuals were patients hospitalized with a mild community-acquired infection. Each case was matched to one control for age, presence of diabetes and site of infection. RESULTS The main outcome measures were the proportions of cases and controls exposed to NSAIDs or aspirin during the period of observation. In all, 152 matched pairs were analyzed. The use of NSAIDs or aspirin during the observation period did not differ between cases and controls (27% versus 28; odds ratio = 0.93, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.52 to 1.64). If aspirin was not considered or if a distinction was made between acute and chronic drug treatment, there remained no difference between groups. However, the median time to prescription of effective antibiotic therapy was longer for NSAID users (6 days, 95% CI = 3 to 7 days) than for nonusers (3 days, 95% CI = 2 to 3 days; P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS In this study, the use of NSAIDs or aspirin during evolving bacterial infection was frequent and occurred in one-quarter of the patients with such infection. Although the use of NSAIDs by patients with severe sepsis or septic shock did not differ from their use by those with mild infection at the same infected site, we observed a longer median time to prescription of effective antibiotic therapy in NSAID users.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the frequency of gastrointestinal side effects (GSE) and hepatotoxicity in patients treated with rifampicin for an osteoarticular infection and to determine if there is an association between rifampicin plasma concentrations and side effects. Rifampicin plasma concentrations were prospectively measured before (trough concentration, C(0)) and 2 +/- 0.5 h (peak concentration, C(2)) after drug intake. The presence of GSE, the alanine transferase (ALT) value, and concomitantly administered medications were recorded on the day rifampicin concentrations were measured. C(0) and C(2) were compared for differences regarding the presence or absence of side effects. Multivariate analysis was performed, with associated medications being taken into account. Seventy C(0) and 57 C(2) values were measured in 46 adults after a median treatment of 8 days (range, 1-179). Wide inter-individual variability was observed for C(0) and C(2). Thirteen (28%) patients reported GSE at least once. When GSE occurred, C(0) (median, 1 mg L(-1); range, 0.1-9.9 mg L(-1)) and C(2) (median, 10.3 mg L(-1); range, 1.8-40.3 mg L(-1)) were similar to C(0) (median, 0.6 mg L(-1); range, 0.1-10.3 mg L(-1)) and C(2) (median, 10.9 mg L(-1); range, 2.9-29.0 mg L(-1)) without GSE. The ALT value was more than normal in only three patients (6.5%) after rifampicin treatment began. The patients received no different associated medications whether or not GSE were present. Multivariate analysis showed no association between rifampicin plasma concentrations and GSE. GSE occur frequently in patients receiving rifampicin for osteoarticular infection but without an association with rifampicin plasma concentrations. Thus, therapeutic drug monitoring of rifampicin is irrelevant in the management of GSE.

Abstract
Automated prescribing has been reported to reduce medication errors from 80% to 50%. However, we report a medication error involving both physicians and pharmacists, as a result of the characteristics of the specific prescription software. Thus, a patient treated for an oesophagus carcinoma was administered 760 mg cisplatin instead of 190 mg intravenously. Consequences for the patient included pancytopenia and renal failure requiring hemodialysis. The medication error was identified as wrong prescription copying by a junior prescriber and the prescription was validated by mistake by the pharmacist in charge of dispensing.

Abstract
Information and reassurance of parents are essential before considering therapeutic measures following a first febrile seizure. It must be emphasized that, although impressive, febrile convulsions are essentially benign, and that in the majority of cases there will be no recurrence. Apart from that, therapeutic measures are of limited efficacy in order to prevent reocurrence. The correct use of antipyretic treatment during febrile episodes must be specified. Due to its several inconveniences, oral diazepam as an intermittent prophylaxis should be only considered in case of multiple reoccurrences. There is little place for continuous anticonvulsant treatment.

Abstract
Mivacurium is a short acting non-depolarising neuromuscular blocking agent. Short duration of action is due to a rapid hydrolysis by plasma cholinesterase (CHe). The duration of neuromuscular blockade can be prolonged by an abnormal variant of CHe. We report a case of a newborn with neuromuscular blockade for a duration of 8 hours following mivacurium 0.2 mg.kg-1. CHe activity values were not contributive for the diagnosis. The diagnosis was obtained with molecular study showing the new-born homozygocity. The whole family was heterozygous. This case emphasises the lack of precision of CHe activity measurement during the first 6 months of life.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We report 3 cases of rash after the first dose of antituberculosis polytherapy, thus raising questions concerning the procedures to be followed. CASE REPORT Three patients developed a pruritic rash 1 hour after the first dose of isoniazide, rifampicine, pyrazinamide and ethambutol given simultaneously. The eruption did not recur after readministration of isoniazide and rifampicine successively. Pyrazinamide, which was readministered last (at the full dose in one case and at progressive doses in the two others), induced a recurrence in two of them. Pyrazinamide was definitively withdrawn in one patient with recurrence and slower pyrazinamide readministration allowed continuation of treatment in the other two patients. CONCLUSION Since pyrazinamide appeared to be responsible for rash following the first administration of antituberculosis polytherapy, a protocol for readministration of the 4 drugs is suggested. If the responsibility of pyrazinamide is confirmed it should be readministered very slowly.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Cardiotoxicity of cisapride may increase when this drug is associated with ranitidine. CASE REPORT A 37-day old term infant, treated with cisapride (1.2 mg/kg/d) and ranitidine for regurgitations, was hospitalized for malaise. A prolonged QT interval (with isolate ventricular extrasystoles), noted at admission, disappeared rapidly after cisapride withdrawal. Linkage to cisapride was probable, promoted by high dosage and cisapride metabolism inhibition by ranitidine, but its plasma concentration was not measured. CONCLUSION This case report stresses the problem of cisapride dosage in infants and the question of an interaction between cisapride and ranitidine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Because of the risk of haemorrhagic disease of the newborn as a result of a deficit in vitamin K, it is generally agreed that newborns should receive vitamin K. However, there is no consensus concerning the route of administration, dose, number of doses, or dose frequency. METHODS We studied patterns of vitamin K administration in all maternity hospitals in France in order to establish the range of practices and policies. Six hundred and forty questionnaires were analysed. Vitamin K was given systematically to all neonates in 619 maternity hospitals (96.7%), not given to any neonates in 2 (0.3%), and only to certain newborns in 19 (3%). A similar protocol was used for all newborns in 299 (47%) of the maternity hospitals, and the treatment protocol differed according to the neonatal clinical picture in 336 maternity hospitals (53%). RESULTS The route of administration agreed with the recommendation that healthy newborns receive formula milk. In contrast, infants receiving breast milk were given IM vitamin K in only 19% of the maternity hospitals studied and regular weekly doses were prescribed in only 56%. In premature infants, IM doses were prescribed in only 46% of cases and repeat weekly doses in 34%. The dose generally prescribed (5 mg p.o. or IM) was not the recommended dose.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Because of the risk of hemorrhagic disease of the neonate secondary to vitamin K deficiency, it is generally agreed that neonates should be given vitamin K. There is however, no consensus concerning the route of administration, dose, number of doses, or dose frequency. It was therefore necessary to determine patterns of vitamin K administration in France. POPULATION AND METHODS Routine vitamin K administration was studied in 1993 by questionnaires sent to all maternity units in France. RESULTS Six hundred and forty of the 1,086 questionnaires could be analysed. Vitamin K was never prescribed in 0.3% of maternity units and was given only to high risk neonates in 3%. In healthy neonates receiving milk formulas, the route of administration (oral or IM) agreed with the recommendations of the French Committee of Pediatric Nutrition. In contrast, breast-fed infants were given IM vitamin K in only 19% of the maternité units whereas regular weekly doses were prescribed in only 56%. In premature infants, IM doses were prescribed in only 46% of cases and repeated weekly doses in 34%. The dose generally prescribed (5 mg orally or IM) was not the recommended dose. Among the available products, oral or parenteral vitamin K Roche was the most frequently prescribed. CONCLUSION New recommendations for the use of vitamin K in the perinatal period in France are necessary.

Abstract
Since 1989 many case series and observational studies of aseptic meningitis (AM) associated with the use of live attenuated mumps vaccines containing the Urabe AM9 strain have been reported worldwide. The aim of this retrospective reported AM in France following mumps vaccination with monovalent or multivalent vaccines containing the Urabe strain. Fifty-four cases of AM were reported to the Regional Pharmacovigilance centres or to the manufacturer from the time each vaccine was launched up until June 1992. Twenty cases were temporally associated with the administration of a monovalent mumps vaccine and 34 with a trivalent measles, mumps and rubella vaccine (MMR). A mumps virus was isolated in four cases in the cerebrospinal fluid and an Urabe-like strain was characterized twice by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). A probable mumps origin was assumed in 17 other cases where the patients presented with other clinical or biological signs of mumps infection. The clinical outcome of AM, known in 87% of the population, was always favourable. The global incidence of mumps vaccine-associated AM was 0.82/100,000 doses, which is significantly lower than the incidence in the unvaccinated population. Even considering that the actual incidence of AM is much higher when assessed by active surveillance studies, the risk/benefit ratio of mumps vaccine remains in favour of vaccination.
