Abstract
In this article, we aim to develop and study a highly sensitive and selective cm2scale graphene-based gas sensor. We present the technology used to fabricate sensors which integrate monolayer chemical vapour deposition graphene: photolithography and transfer of layers. Characterization techniques (optical microscopy, AFM, micro-Raman spectroscopy, transport electrical measurements) ensure a diagnosis of graphene ribbons and allow good reproducibility of technological processes. We present the results of gas characterizations after a 200 ppm NO2exposure. We propose a novel approach for the modelling of the sensor response with a three-site adsorption/desorption Langmuir model. This innovative way of modelling the sensor response should provide a better understanding of the sensor's kinetic and help to overcome the long response time observed with graphene gas sensors.

Abstract
Purpose Hybrid techniques using thoracic sublaminar bands have proved their efficacy in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis posterior fusion, but clinical axial correction sometimes remained disappointing. One solution found was "the frame technique" and the second alternative was the replacement of the convex sublaminar bands by periapical uniplanar screws. The goal of this study was to compare clinical and radiological outcomes of both techniques in a consecutive cohort of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients. Methods All patients undergoing primary posterior fusion for thoracic adolescent idiopathic scoliosis between January 2017 and March 2020 were included. Two groups were compared: Group 1 with thoracic sublaminar bands only and Group 2 with periapical uniplanar screws. All patients underwent standing stereoradiographs. The main frontal, sagittal, and axial (apical vertebra rotation) radiological parameters of interest were analyzed. Functional outcomes were assessed using the Scoliosis Research Society 30 score. Results A total of 147 adolescents were included (Group 1, n = 73 and Group 2, n = 74 patients). In the frontal plane, a greater reduction index was observed in Group 2 (68% versus 62%, p < 0.001) as well as a better apical axial correction (67.8% versus 46.6%, p = 0.03). The number of thoracoplasty performed was reduced (6.7% versus 20.5%, p = 0.02) in Group 2, with a significant decrease in the rate of mechanical complication. No significant loss of correction was observed during follow-up in any of the group. Conclusion The adjunction of convex uniplanar screws at the periapical levels improved the three-dimensional surgical correction of thoracic adolescent idiopathic scoliosis treated with hybrid constructs. Level of evidence level III, retrospective comparative study.

Abstract
AIMS Reported and Intended Behaviour Scale (RIBS) was designed to measure mental health stigma-related behaviors in the general public. We aimed to examine its psychometric properties and validate the scale in a Hungarian non-clinical community sample. The secondary aim of this study was to assess the appropriateness of the current scoring recommendations of 'Don't know' responses being coded as neutral, which had never been investigated before. In addition, we provide an overview of the results of already existing studies on the scale. METHODS Hungarian participants completed the RIBS within this cross-sectional online survey study and were considered non-clinical individuals based on a cut-off point of the Global Severity Index T score of 63 on the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised. Confirmatory factor analysis, reliability measures, and comparative analyses were performed. RESULTS Of the n = 5,701, n = 5,141 participants were included in the analysis. The mean age was 27.8 ± 11.1 years, and 89.2% (n = 4,587) of the sample were female. The unidimensional structure was supported by good model fit indices (RMSEA = 0.031, CFI = 0.999, TLI = 0.996, and WRMR = 0.006). Internal consistency of the RIBS and its test-retest reliability with a 5-month follow-up period were found to be good (Cronbach's alpha = 0.88 and ICC = 0.838). We found statistically significant differences between the total scores when the 'Don't know' responders were excluded from the sample or when they were coded as neutral as recommended by the scale authors (16 (IQR:13-18) vs. 15 (IQR:13-18) p < 0.0001). There were also statistically significant differences between 'Neither agree nor disagree' and 'Don't know' participants in several aspects of lived experiences of mental health problems. CONCLUSIONS The RIBS demonstrated good psychometric properties and can be transferred to the Hungarian context. It will be a valuable tool in assessing stigmatizing behavior and testing the efficacy of antistigma programs. Our results suggest that 'Neither agree nor disagree' and 'Don't know' responses bear different meanings, and coding should account for this.

Abstract
In radiotherapy, patient positioning has long been ensured by ionizing imaging (kV or MV). Over the past ten years, surface-guided radiotherapy has appeared in radiotherapy departments. It is a continuous three-dimensional acquisition of the surface of the patient, based on the use of several optical cameras. The acquired surface is compared to an expected surface (usually taken from the planning scanner). Operators can constantly appreciate poor position, anatomical deformity or patient shift. Thus, the system allows an aid to the positioning of the patient, possibly without tattooing, but also a follow-up of the patient during the duration of the session. The most obvious contribution of the system concerns the treatment of the breast. In fact, for this location, the bone registration is not ideal and the target is visible in surface-guided radiotherapy. These systems also make it possible to treat in deep inspiration breath hold. But several other locations can benefit from it (pelvis, thorax, etc.).

Abstract
This work aimed at evaluating the potential of amphiphilic polyoxazolines bearing lipid chain called lipopolyoxazolines to reach efficient intracellular delivery. Four lipid chains: linear saturated, linear unsaturated and two branched one of various length were associated to poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) block. The evaluation of their physicochemical features and their impact on cell viability and internalization capacity indicated that the linear saturated gathered the highest cell internalization with a good cell viability. Its intracellular delivery capacity was compared to the PEG reference (DSPE-PEG) after being formulated in liposomes and loaded with fluorescent probe. Both POxylated and PEGylated liposomes showed similar characteristics regarding size distribution, drug loading and cell viability. However, their intracellular delivery was dramatically different, with an improved delivery by 30 folds for the POxylated ones. This significantly better performance highlighted the difficulty of PEGylated liposomes to enter the cells by endocytosis, contrary to POxylated liposomes. This study promotes the value of lipopoly(oxazoline) as a lipopoly(ethylene glycol) alternative for effective intracellular delivery and holds great promises for development of nanoformulations for intravenous administration.

Abstract
PURPOSE Shorter courses of breast radiotherapy are offered as an alternative to 4 weeks of whole-breast irradiation after lumpectomy, including brachytherapy. A prospective phase 2multi-institution clinical trial to study 3-fraction accelerated partial breast irradiation delivered by brachytherapy was conducted. METHODS AND MATERIALS The trial treated selected breast cancers after breast-conserving surgery with brachytherapy applicators that delivered 22.5 Gy in 3 fractions of 7.5 Gy. The planning treatment volume was 1 to 2 cm beyond the surgical cavity. Eligible women were age ≥45 years with unicentric invasive or in situ tumors ≤3 cm excised with negative margins and with positive estrogen or progesterone receptors and no metastases to axillary nodes. Strict dosimetric parameters were required to be met and follow up information was collected from the participating sites. RESULTS Two hundred patients were prospectively enrolled; however, a total of 185 patients who were enrolled were followed for a median of 3.63 years. Three-fraction brachytherapy was associated with low chronic toxicity. There was excellent or good cosmesis in 94% of patients. There were no grade 4 toxicities. Grade 3 fibrosis at the treatment site was present in 1.7% and 32% percent had grades 1 or 2 fibrosis at the treatment site. There was 1 rib fracture. Other late toxicities included 7.4% grade 1 hyperpigmentation, 2% grade 1 telangiectasias, 1.7% symptomatic seromas, 1.7% abscessed cavities, and 1.1% symptomatic fat necrosis. There were 2 (1.1%) ipsilateral local recurrences, 2 (1.1%) nodal recurrences and no distant recurrences. Other incidents included one contralateral breast cancer and 2 second malignancies (lung). CONCLUSIONS Ultra-short breast brachytherapy is feasible and has excellent toxicity and could be an alternative to standard 5-day, 10 fraction accelerated partial breast irradiation in eligible patients. Patients from this prospective trial will continue to be followed to evaluate long-term outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate factors associated with daptomycin consumption in French healthcare facilities (HCF) between 2019 and 2020. METHODS Antibiotic consumption expressed as number of defined daily doses (DDD) per 1,000 patient-days (PD) and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) expressed as incidence densities per 1,000PD were extracted each year from the nationwide surveillance network run by the SPARES project (Surveillance and Prevention of Antimicrobial RESistance in hospitals), collecting data at ward level among voluntary HCFs using standardized methodology and webtool. All HCF participating both in 2019 and 2020 were included. A multivariable linear regression was fitted. RESULTS Among 622 HCFs, we analyzed daptomycin consumption and AMR data in 1,637 clinical wards. Incidence densities of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci (MRCNS) were the highest in intensive care unit wards (0.54 and 6.83 respectively in 2020). On the most adjusted model, the year 2020 was correlated with a higher daptomycin consumption (1.53; p = 0.01). A greater number of inpatient beds (0.01; p < 0.001), the presence of orthopedic surgery activity in the HCF (1.66; p < 0.02), MRSA (4.38; p < 0.001) and MRCNS (0.61; p < 0.001) incidence densities were associated with a higher daptomycin use. The final model explained 18% of the observed variance. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that daptomycin consumption was correlated to MRSA and MRCNS incidence densities, to the year 2020 and to non-modifiable HCF-related factors. Prevention of coagulase-negative staphylococci infections should be considered by antimicrobial stewardship teams when daptomycin use is going up in HCF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Correcting pelvic obliquity is among the main goals of surgery for neuromuscular scoliosis. Spino-pelvic fixation must be stable and capable of withstanding the considerable mechanical forces applied at the lumbo-sacral junction. Selection of the best anchoring option is therefore crucial. S2-alar-iliac (S2AI) screws, which are used in adults, are less often chosen in the French paediatric spinal-surgery community. The objective of this study was to report our preliminary experience with S2AI screws used in the treatment of paediatric patients with neuromuscular scoliosis. HYPOTHESIS Pelvic anchoring by means of S2AI screws is reliable and technically feasible in non-ambulatory children with neuromuscular scoliosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Consecutive non-ambulatory patients who underwent scoliosis surgery with S2AI screw fixation to the pelvis between 2016 and 2018 were retrospectively included. The surgical procedure consisted in either posterior spinal fusion (PSF) or magnetic growing rod (MGR) implantation. In all patients, radiographs were obtained before surgery, within 3 months after surgery, and at last follow-up; and low-dose computed tomography (CT) was performed before and after surgery. RESULTS We included 25 patients with a mean age of 13.8±4.0 years, 18 managed by PSF and 7 by MGRs. Screw diameters ranged from 7.5 to 9.5mm and all screws were at least 60mm in length. The diameters and lengths were the same on both sides in 16 (89%) patients in the PSF group and in all patients in the MGR group. At last follow-up after a mean of 35.5±3.0 months, pelvic obliquity was corrected in all 23 patients with this abnormality before surgery. Complications consisted of lateral cortical screw breakthrough in 8 (32% of screws) patients and screw malposition in 2 (8% of screws) patients. No clinically significant complications related to the fixation material were recorded. DISCUSSION The results of our study demonstrate the feasibility of S2AI screw fixation in paediatric patients with neuromuscular scoliosis. Pelvic asymmetry and dysmorphism do not contra-indicate the procedure but must be evaluated before surgery. Further work is needed to assess the potential long-term consequences on pain and growth of screw passage through the sacro-iliac joints. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, retrospective study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To recommend the most appropriate biometric charts for the detection of antenatal growth abnormalities and postnatal growth surveillance. METHODS Elaboration of specific questions and selection of experts by the organizing committee to answer these questions; analysis of the literature by experts and drafting conclusions by assigning a recommendation (strong or weak) and a quality of evidence (high, moderate, low, very low) and for each question; all these recommendations have been subject to multidisciplinary external review (obstetrician gynecologists, pediatricians). The objective for the reviewers was to verify the completeness of the literature review, to verify the levels of evidence established and the consistency and applicability of the resulting recommendations. The overall review of the literature, quality of evidence and recommendations were revised to take into consideration comments from external reviewers. RESULTS Antenatally, it is recommended to use all WHO fetal growth charts for EFW and common ultrasound biometric measurements (strong recommendation; low quality of evidence). Indeed, in comparison with other prescriptive curves and descriptive curves, the WHO prescriptive charts show better performance for the screening of SGA (Small for Gestational Age) and LGA (Large for Gestational Age) with adequate proportions of fetuses screened at extreme percentiles in the French population. It also has the advantages of having EFW charts by sex and biometric parameters obtained from the same perspective cohort of women screened by qualified sonographers who measured the biometric parameters according to international standards. Postnatally, it is recommended to use the updated Fenton charts for the assessment of birth measurements and for growth monitoring in preterm infants (strong recommendation; moderate quality of evidence) and for the assessment of birth measurements in term newborn (expert opinion). CONCLUSION It is recommended to use WHO fetal growth charts for antenatal growth monitoring and Fenton charts for the newborn.

Abstract
This paper investigates the performance of one-eighth Spherical Fraction Microphone Array through experimental measurement to analyze acoustic scenes in one-eighth of space. The array geometry is designed to be placed in a room corner at the junction of three acoustically rigid walls. Two prototypes are built with 8 and 16 microphones, respectively. The sampling strategy is discussed and a spatial aliasing analysis is carried out both analytically and by numerical simulations. The array performances are evaluated through Spherical Fraction Beamforming (SFB). This approach is based on the decomposition of the acoustic pressure field in a rigid bounded domain. The localization angular error and Directivity Index criterion are evaluated for both arrays. In a first experiment, the arrays are mounted in an eighth of space built inside an anechoic room. The results are compared with simulation and show consistency. The theoretical limitations of SFB in a rigid bounded one-eighth of space are retrieved experimentally. These limitations are also observed in a real configuration: an office room. Further investigations on SFB are also conducted in the case of a virtual scene constructed with two sound sources.

Abstract
This study assessed the hand hygiene performance in French nursing homes using the consumption of alcohol-based hand rubs (AHRs) as a surrogate. Nursing homes from the 17 French regions were contacted to collect their AHR consumption and occupancy in 2018 and 2019. A total of 1290 nursing homes from 15 French regions participated in the survey. The estimated median number of hand hygiene actions per resident-day was 1.48 (interquartile range: 1.04-2.03) in 2018 and 1.60 (1.10-2.26) in 2019. A significantly higher AHR consumption was observed in public nursing homes with an infection control team or link nurse.

Abstract
Deep-learning (DL)-based auto-contouring solutions have recently been proposed as a convincing alternative to decrease workload of target volumes and organs-at-risk (OAR) delineation in radiotherapy planning and improve inter-observer consistency. However, there is minimal literature of clinical implementations of such algorithms in a clinical routine. In this paper we first present an update of the state-of-the-art of DL-based solutions. We then summarize recent recommendations proposed by the European society for radiotherapy and oncology (ESTRO) to be followed before any clinical implementation of artificial intelligence-based solutions in clinic. The last section describes the methodology carried out by three French radiation oncology departments to deploy CE-marked commercial solutions. Based on the information collected, a majority of OAR are retained by the centers among those proposed by the manufacturers, validating the usefulness of DL-based models to decrease clinicians' workload. Target volumes, with the exception of lymph node areas in breast, head and neck and pelvic regions, whole breast, breast wall, prostate and seminal vesicles, are not available in the three commercial solutions at this time. No implemented workflows are currently available to continuously improve the models, but these can be adapted/retrained in some solutions during the commissioning phase to best fit local practices. In reported experiences, automatic workflows were implemented to limit human interactions and make the workflow more fluid. Recommendations published by the ESTRO group will be of importance for guiding physicists in the clinical implementation of patient specific and regular quality assurances.

Abstract
Introduction Lors de la première vague de l’épidémie de COVID-19, la réduction d’activité des établissements de santé (ES), notamment en chirurgie, a pu entraîner un moindre recours aux antibiotiques. Toutefois, l’accueil de nombreux patients atteints de COVID-19 a engendré la prescription de traitements antibiotiques visant à prévenir ou traiter des (suspicions de) surinfections bactériennes. Les consommations d’antibiotiques au premier trimestre 2020 (début de première vague) ont été comparées à celles du deuxième trimestre (pic de la première vague) afin d’estimer l’impact de l’épidémie sur l’utilisation d’antibiotiques. Matériels et méthodes Les consommations d’antibiotiques à visée systémique dispensés dans les services d’hospitalisation complète ont été recueillies pour la période du 1er janvier au 31 mars 2020 (T1) puis du 1er avril au 30 juin 2020 (T2), dans des ES volontaires participant à la surveillance nationale SPARES, et ayant indiqué avoir accueilli ou non des patients COVID-19. Elles ont été exprimées en nombre de doses définies journalières (DDJ) pour 1000 journées d’hospitalisation (JH) et comparées entre T1 et T2 dans les secteurs d’activité clinique de réanimation, médecine et soins de suite et réadaptation (SSR) (test de Wilcoxon des rangs signés). Résultats Dans les 118 ES ayant accueilli des patients COVID-19 (C+) en T1 et T2 et les 75 ES n’en ayant pas accueilli (C−), l’activité en nombre de JH avait diminué de 14 % et 13 % respectivement. La consommation globale d’antibiotique était plus faible en T2 par rapport à T1 dans 35 secteurs de réanimation C+ (−19 %), 72 secteurs de médecine C+ (−9 %) et 25 secteurs de médecine C− (−19 %), ainsi que dans 37 SSR C− (−14 %). En réanimation, les consommations d’azithromycine, ceftriaxone, cefotaxime et amoxicilline–acide clavulanique étaient significativement plus faibles en T2 et celle de ceftazidime significativement plus élevée. La consommation d’antibiotiques était plus élevée en T2 dans 43 secteurs de SSR C+ (+6 %), avec une consommation de ceftriaxone significativement plus élevée. Conclusion Globalement, la pression de sélection antibiotique semble avoir été plus faible en T2 dans les ES volontaires ayant fourni des données de consommation par secteur d’activité clinique, qu’ils aient accueilli ou non des patients COVID-19. Cette tendance peut être liée à la réduction d’activité liée, d’une part, aux déprogrammations, et d’autre part, au confinement qui a réduit le nombre d’infections nécessitant potentiellement une hospitalisation. De plus, la mobilisation des comités anti-infectieux a pu conduire à la diffusion de recommandations de bon usage des antibiotiques pour les patients COVID-19 avant même la parution de l’avis du HCSP en juin. Toutefois, s’agissant de données agrégées de dispensation et non de données individuelles d’administration, un effet stockage en T1 ne peut être écarté. L’effet à moyen terme sur les résistances bactériennes reste à évaluer.

Abstract
Modern radiotherapy treatment planning is a complex and time-consuming process that requires the skills of experienced users to obtain quality plans. Since the early 2000s, the automation of this planning process has become an important research topic in radiotherapy. Today, the first commercial automated treatment planning solutions are available and implemented in a growing number of clinical radiotherapy departments. It should be noted that these various commercial solutions are based on very different methods, implying a daily practice that varies from one center to another. It is likely that this change in planning practices is still in its infancy. Indeed, the rise of artificial intelligence methods, based in particular on deep learning, has recently revived research interest in this subject. The numerous articles currently being published announce a lasting and profound transformation of radiotherapy planning practices in the years to come. From this perspective, an evolution of initial training for clinical teams and the drafting of new quality assurance recommendations is desirable.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Monitoring the use of antimicrobials in hospitalized patients is critical owing to the risk of resistance selection. This study aimed to describe the patterns of antimicrobial prescription for the most frequent healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) in France, relating drugs and microbiological data. METHODS We used data from the 2017 point-prevalence survey of HAI and antimicrobial use in France, a large nationally representative sample survey of inpatients. We sought unambiguous correspondence between individual indications of antibiotic regimen and HAI sites to determine which molecules were directed towards which pathogen, considering its resistance profile. RESULTS Among 75,698 adult patients from 401 hospitals, 5.1% had an active HAI and 4.3% were being treated for an HAI. The two most frequent antibiotic indications were lower respiratory tract (LRTI, 27.7%) and urinary tract infections (UTI, 18.4%). For LRTI, the most prescribed antibiotic was amoxicillin-clavulanic acid (27.6%) and most frequently isolated pathogens (each accounting for around 17% of isolates) were Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. Meticillin-resistant S. aureus LRTI was more likely to be treated with linezolid. For UTI, ofloxacin, ceftriaxone, amoxicillin/co-amoxiclav were most-prescribed (∼13% each) and E. coli predominantly isolated (52.0%). Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing E. coli UTI were more likely treated by fosfomycin, pivmecillinam or ertapenem. CONCLUSIONS This study provides a baseline of antimicrobial use in relation to microbiological information in patients with the most common HAIs. These results can serve to direct future efforts in antimicrobial stewardship. Our work could be extended to a broader population, notably in Europe where similar surveys have been conducted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patient suicide (PS) is known to be a frequent and challenging occupational hazard for mental health professionals. No study previously explored the prevalence and impact of PS in a large sample of French psychiatrists. METHOD A national web-based survey was performed between September and December 2019 to assess (a) the prevalence of the exposure to PS, (b) the emotional, traumatic and professional impacts of PS, and (c) the perceived support in the aftermath of PS in French psychiatrists. Participants were contacted through email to answer the online 62-item questionnaire, including a measure of traumatic impact through the Impact of Event Scale-Revised. Emotional and professional impacts and perceived support were assessed through dedicated items. RESULTS A total of 764 psychiatrists fully completed the survey. Of them, 87.3% reported an exposure to PS and 13.7% reported PTSD symptoms afterward. Guilt, sadness and shock were the most frequent emotions. Among the exposed psychiatrists, 15.1% have temporarily considered changing their career path. The most emotionally distressing PS occurred during their ten first years of practice or during residency. A total of 37.1% of respondents felt unsupported and 50.4% reported that no team meeting had been organized in the aftermath. The feeling of responsibility for the death was strongly associated with negative impacts. CONCLUSION Our results entail considerations to prevent negative mental health outcomes in psychiatrists after PS. Notably, our results advocate for the implementation of educational programs during psychiatric residency and postvention programs in healthcare settings to effectively help psychiatrists in dealing with PS.

Abstract
Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) and 2 (IDH2) mutations in Myeloid Neoplams (MNs) exhibit DNA hypermethylation via 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) over-production. Clinical impact of azacitidine (AZA) remains inconsistent in IDH1/2-mutated MNs and the potential of serum 2HG as a suitable marker of response to AZA is unknown. To address these questions, we retrospectively analyzed 93 MNs patients (78 AML, 11 MDS, 4 CMML) with IDH1/2 mutations treated with AZA. After a median of 5 cycles of AZA, overall response rate was 28% (including 15% complete remission) and median OS was 12.3 months (significantly shorter in AML compared to MDS/CMML patients). In multivariate analysis of AML patients, DNMT3A mutation was associated with shorter OS while IDH1/2 mutation subtypes had no independent impact. No difference was observed in serum 2HG levels upon AZA treatment between responding and refractory patients suggesting that serum 2HG cannot be used as a surrogate marker of AZA response.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) imaging and post processing are common tasks used daily in many disciplines. The purpose of this article is to review the new postprocessing tools available. Although 3D imaging can be applied to all anatomical regions and used with all imaging techniques, its most varied and relevant applications are found with computed tomography (CT) data in musculoskeletal imaging. These new applications include global illumination rendering (GIR), unfolded rib reformations, subtracted CT angiography for bone analysis, dynamic studies, temporal subtraction and image fusion. In all of these tasks, registration and segmentation are two basic processes that affect the quality of the results. GIR simulates the complete interaction of photons with the scanned object, providing photorealistic volume rendering. Reformations to unfold the rib cage allow more accurate and faster diagnosis of rib lesions. Dynamic CT can be applied to cinematic joint evaluations a well as to perfusion and angiographic studies. Finally, more traditional techniques, such as minimum intensity projection, might find new applications for bone evaluation with the advent of ultra-high-resolution CT scanners. These tools can be used synergistically to provide morphologic, topographic and functional information and increase the versatility of CT.

Abstract
Unemployment rates in the United States are rapidly increasing as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and attendant economic disruption. As employees lose their jobs, many will lose their employer-sponsored dental insurance (ESDI). Changes in insurance coverage are directly related to the oral health of the population, with many at risk of losing access to dental care. We assessed the impact of recent unemployment rates on insurance coverage and dental utilization. We estimated changes in dental insurance coverage at the state level, using previously applied econometric estimates. Expected changes in types of dental procedures performed at dental practices nationwide were assessed using a microsimulation model, using national practice survey data. Changes in emergency department (ED) visits for dental problems were estimated by fitting trendlines to ED visit patterns by payer type. Sensitivity analyses were conducted to assess how variations in unemployment rates and rates of ESDI in response to unemployment could alter the results. Since March 2020, the national unemployment rate has increased by 8.40 percentage points, an increase expected to result in more than 16 million individuals losing ESDI in the United States. Of these individuals, 45.0% are likely to enroll in their state’s Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program, and 47.0% are expected to become uninsured. With these expected changes in dental insurance coverage, the average dental practice would experience decreases in routine checkup visits but increases in tooth extraction, a procedure that is highly used by publicly insured or uninsured patients. In addition, dental-related ED visits would be expected to grow by 4.0%. Losses of employment caused by the COVID-19 in the United States can have countervailing effects on people’s health by impeding access to dental care. Lack of dental insurance is expected to be more pronounced in states that have not expanded Medicaid or do not provide Medicaid dental benefits for adults.

Abstract
Facing the growing demand in nano drug delivery systems (nDDS), hybrid excipients based on natural molecules and well-defined synthetic polymers are intensively investigated. Lipopolyoxazolines (LipoPOx) composed of a polyoxazoline block (POx) and a lipid or lipid-like derivative are detailed in this review. The nature of lipids used, the route to synthesize LipoPOx and their advantages for the formulation of drugs are reported. The place of POx family in nanomedicine is discussed compared to PEG, considered as the gold standard of hydrophilic polymers. LipoPOx nanoformulations including liposomes, mixed micelles, lipid nanocapsules are provided alongside discussion of the nDDS for intravenous or topical administration.

Abstract
The framework for developmental toxicity testing has remained largely unchanged for over 50 years and although it remains invaluable in assessing potential risks in pregnancy, knowledge gaps exist, and some outcomes do not necessarily correlate with clinical experience. Advances in omics, in silico approaches and alternative assays are providing opportunities to enhance our understanding of embryo-fetal development and the prediction of potential risks associated with the use of medicines in pregnancy. A workshop organised by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), "Predicting the Safety of Medicines in Pregnancy - a New Era?", was attended by delegates representing regulatory authorities, academia, industry, patients, funding bodies and software developers to consider how to improve the quality of and access to nonclinical developmental toxicity data and how to use this data to better predict the safety of medicines in human pregnancy. The workshop delegates concluded that based on comparative data to date alternative methodologies are currently no more predictive than conventional methods and not qualified for use in regulatory submissions. To advance the development and qualification of alternative methodologies, there is a requirement for better coordinated multidisciplinary cross-sector interactions coupled with data sharing. Furthermore, a better understanding of human developmental biology and the incorporation of this knowledge into the development of alternative methodologies is essential to enhance the prediction of adverse outcomes for human development. The output of the workshop was a series of recommendations aimed at supporting multidisciplinary efforts to develop and validate these alternative methodologies.

Abstract
This study aims to prove the value of the polyoxazolines polymer family as surfactant in formulations for topical application and as an alternative to PEG overuse. The amphiphilic polyoxazolines (POx) were demonstrated to have less impact on cell viability of mice fibroblasts (NIH3T3) than their PEG counterparts. Mixed micelles, made of POx and phosphatidylcholine, were manufactured using thin film and high pressure homogenizer process. The mixed micelles were optimized to produce nanosized vesicles of about 20 nm with a spherical shape and stable over 28 days. The natural lipophilic antioxidant, quercetin, was successfully encapsulated (encapsulation efficiency 94 ± 4% and drug loading 3.6 ± 0.2%) in the mixed micelles with no morphological variation. Once loaded in the formulation, the quercetin impact on cell viability of NIH3T3 was decreased while its antioxidant activity remained unchanged. This work highlights the capacity of amphiphilic POx to create, in association with phospholipids, stable nanoformulations which show promise for topical delivery of antioxidant and ensure skin protection against oxidative stress.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Allergic diseases have become an increasingly common reality in the last years, extending beyond the family context. OBJECTIVE Assessing the level of knowledge on asthma, food allergies and anaphylaxis of asthmatic children's parents/caregivers (PC), elementary school teachers (EST) and university students (US) in Uruguaiana, RS, Brazil. METHOD 577 individuals (PC - N=111; EST - N=177; US - N=299) took part in the study, answering the Newcastle Asthma Knowledge Questionnaire (validated for Portuguese) and another questionnaire on Food Allergy (FA) and anaphylaxis. RESULTS Although PC have asthmatic children, their asthma knowledge level was average, slightly above that of EST and EU. The lack of knowledge on passive smoking, use of medications and their side effects should be highlighted. US have shown to be better informed about FA and anaphylaxis. However, even though a significant proportion of respondents know the most common symptoms of FA and anaphylaxis, few named subcutaneous adrenaline as the drug of choice for treating anaphylaxis. Although a significant number of respondents know about the possibility of anaphylactic reactions happening at school or in activities outside the school, we were surprised by the absence of conditions in schools to provide emergency care to such students. CONCLUSION Despite the high prevalence of allergic diseases in childhood, asthmatic children's parents/caregivers, elementary school teachers and university students have inadequate levels of knowledge to monitor these patients.

Abstract
Image-guided radiotherapy takes place at every step of the treatment in lung cancer, from treatment planning, with fusion imaging, to daily in-room repositioning. Managing tumoral and surrounding thoracic structures motion has been allowed since the routine use of 4D computed tomography (4DCT). The integration of respiratory motion has been made with "passive" techniques based on reconstruction images from 4DCT planning, or "active" techniques adapted to the patient's breathing. Daily repositioning is based on regular images, weekly or daily, low (kV) or high (MV) energy. MRI and functional imaging also play an important part in lung cancer radiation and open the way for adaptative radiotherapy.
