Abstract
OBJECTIVES Design the competency framework and an interview guide for patients with PICC line or midline. Develop a patient satisfaction evaluation questionnaire. METHODS A multidisciplinary team has developed a reference system for the skills of patients with PICC line or midline. The skills are classified in three categories: knowledge, know-how and attitudes. An interview guide was written in order to transmit the priority skills, determined beforehand, to the patient. A second multidisciplinary team designed a questionnaire to evaluate patient satisfaction. RESULTS The competency framework includes nine competencies: four, knowledge-based; three, know-how-based and two, attitude-based. Among these competencies, five were considered to be priorities. The interview guide is a tool that allows care professionals to transmit the priority skills to patients. The satisfaction questionnaire explores the information received by the patient, the passage through the interventional technical platform, the end of the management before the return home, and the overall satisfaction of the patients with the course of the device placement. Over a 6-month period, 276 patients responded with a high satisfaction rate. CONCLUSIONS The PICC line or midline patient's competency framework has made it possible to list all the skills that patients should acquire. The interview guide serves as a support for the care teams in the patient education process. This work could be used by other establishments to develop the educational process around these vascular access devices.

Abstract
The fusion-born alpha particle heating in magnetically confined fusion machines is a high priority subject for studies. The self-heating of thermonuclear fusion plasma by alpha particles was observed in recent deuterium-tritium (D-T) experiments on the joint European torus. This observation was possible by conducting so-called "afterglow" experiments where transient high fusion yield was achieved with neutral beam injection as the only external heating source, and then termination of the heating at peak performance. This allowed the first direct evidence for electron heating of plasmas by fusion-born alphas to be obtained. Interpretive transport modeling of the relevant D-T and reference deuterium discharges is consistent with the alpha particle heating observation.

Abstract
Recent experiments performed in JET at high level of plasma heating, in preparation of, and during the DT campaign have shown significant discrepancies between electron temperature measurements by Thomson Scattering (TS) and Electron Cyclotron Emission (ECE). In order to perform a systematic analysis of this phenomenon, a simple model of bipolar distortion of the electron distribution function has been developed, allowing analytic calculation of the EC emission and absorption coefficients. Extensive comparisons of the modelled ECE spectra (at both the 2nd and the 3rd harmonic extraordinary mode) with experimental measurements display good agreement when bulk electron distribution distortions around 1-2 times the electron thermal velocity are used and prove useful for a first level of analysis of this effect.

Abstract
The ECRH system formerly used in Tore Supra is being upgraded to start on WEST in 2023, at a power level of 1MW and frequency of 105 GHz. Its ultimate 3MW/1000s capability is expected to enlarge the WEST operational domain by increasing margins with respect to H-mode access, and by providing additional flexibility in terms of achievable scenarios using impurity and/or MHD control. This flexibility is made possible using an antenna based on three steerable mirrors for controlled power injection. In order to determine an appropriate range of EC wave injection angles for WEST scenarios, the fast and reliable ray-tracing code REMA has been interfaced with the WEST IMAS database. This allows the EC power damping rate to be quickly assessed, as well as deposition profiles to be predicted in realistic plasma conditions. Based on a typical WEST discharge at central magnetic field B0~3.6 T, central line-averaged electron density nl~4 × 1019 m−3 and central electron temperature Te0~3keV, ray-tracing calculations have been performed. Comprehensive poloidal and toroidal angle scans, as well as variations of Bt, nl and Te0 with respect to the reference parameters have allowed an adequate range of injection angles to be determined for efficient use of ECRH and/or ECCD in typical WEST scenarios, and compared with the mechanical limits set by the antenna mechanical characteristics. In order to further characterize the effect of this new power source in WEST scenarios, EC wave deposition and current profiles from ray-tracing calculations have been included in integrated simulation codes. It has been shown that this additional power source could allow central electron heating to be achieved, potentially alleviating the issue of radiative collapse caused by impurities observed in some situations.

Abstract
For high-temperature JET and TFTR discharges, electron cyclotron emission (ECE) measurements of central electron temperature were systematically found to be up to 20% higher than those taken with Thomson scattering. In recent high-performance JET discharges, central Te measurements, performed with LIDAR Thomson scattering and the X-mode ECE interferometer, have been studied in a large database, including deuterium (DD), and deuterium-tritium plasmas (DT). Discrepancies between Te measurements have been observed outside of the experimental uncertainties. ECE measurements, at high Te, have been found to be higher or lower than those of LIDAR, depending on the specific plasma scenario. In addition, discrepancies between the peaks of the second and third harmonic ranges of the ECE spectrum have been interpreted as evidence for the presence of non-Maxwellian features in the electron distribution function. These comparisons seem to suggest that such features can be found in most of the high-performance scenarios selected in this JET database.

Abstract
WEST (tungsten environment in steady-state tokamak) is starting operation for the first time with a water-cooled full tungsten divertor, enabling long pulse operation. Heating is provided by radiofrequency systems, including lower hybrid current drive (LHCD). In this context, a compact multi-energy hard x-ray camera has been installed for energy and space-resolved measurements of the electron temperature, the fast electron tail density produced by LHCD and runaway electrons, and the beam-target emission of tungsten at the target due to fast electron losses interacting with the divertor plates. The diagnostic is a pinhole camera based on a 2D pixel array detector (Pilatus 3 CdTe CMOS Hybrid-Pixel detector produced by DECTRIS). The novelty of this diagnostic technique is the detector's capability of adjusting the threshold energy at pixel level. This innovation provides great flexibility in the energy configuration, allowing simultaneous space and energy-resolved x-ray measurements. This contribution details two important steps in the preparation of the diagnostic operation. First, the in-vessel spatial calibration that was carried out with a radioactive source. Second, the synthetic diagnostic is obtained by the suite of codes ALOHA/C3PO/LUKE/R5-X2, which simulates LH wave propagation and absorption, as well as the fast electron bremsstrahlung production.

Abstract
Cardiogenic shock is one of the four types of circulatory shock (cardiogenic, distributive, hypovolemic and obstructive). It is a serious complication associated with a hypoperfusion state of terminal organs and possible multivisceral failures, with a high mortality rate of nearly 50 %. It is secondary to an acute myocardial infarction in 8 out of 10 cases but only complicates it in 5 to 10 %. It is more frequently encountered in pluri-troncular coronary diseases. Coronary revascularization and supportive care are the main treatments.

Abstract
Even though, it has long been considered as a passive channel allowing communication between the systemic and pulmonary circulations, it is now clearly established that the right ventricle plays an essential role in cardio-pulmonary couple physiology. Its failure results in a clinical presentation that reflects the systemic congestion and reduced cardiac output. It is the consequence of two pathological situations frequently encountered in intensive care including pulmonary vascular resistance increase and right ventricle contraction alteration. Mechanical ventilation, certain drugs and volume overload can also participate. The management of the acute right heart failure is based on the combination of supportive treatment and causal treatment, specific to the etiology. Supportive therapy aims to optimize filling pressures, reduce afterload and support cardiac contractibility. With the growing number of therapeutic options used according to co-morbidities, decision-making by a multidisciplinary heart team seems essential.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION While regional monitoring of antibiotic use has decreased since 2011 by 3.2%, in some healthcare facilities a significant increase (+43%) has occurred. The purpose of this study was to assess regional antibiotic prophylaxis (ABP) compliance with national guidelines. MATERIAL AND METHODS In 2015, 26 healthcare facilities, both public and private, were requested to audit five items: utilization of antibiotic prophylaxis, the antimicrobial agent (the molecule) administered, time between injection and incision, initial dose, number of intraoperative and postoperative additional doses. Seven surgical procedures were selected for assessment: appendicectomy (APP), cataract (CAT), cesarean section (CES), colorectal cancer surgery (CCR), hysterectomy (HYS), total hip arthroplasty (THA) and transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). A statistical analysis of the 2303 records included was carried out. RESULTS The general rate of antibiotic prophylaxis compliance was 64%. The antimicrobial agent used and initial dose were in compliance with the guidelines for 93% and 97.4% of cases respectively, and administration of antibiotic prophylaxis was achieved 60minutes before incision in 77.6% of the records included. Regarding gastrointestinal surgery, amoxicillin/clavulanic acid was used in 32% of patients. In 26% of appendectomy files, administration occurred after incision, and one out of two files showed non-complaint perioperative and postoperative consumption. CONCLUSION Compliance with nationwide ABP guidelines is in need of pronounced improvement, especially with regard to time interval between injection and incision and the molecule prescribed. An action plan based on specific recommendations addressed to each establishment and an updated regionwide ABP protocol are aimed at achieving better and reduced consumption of antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
La pandémie du COVID-19 a des conséquences majeures sur l’organisation des soins. En France et dans le monde, les centres pratiquant l’électroconvulsivothérapie (ECT) ont vu leur activité diminuer, voire s’arrêter, pour de diverses raisons. Dans ce contexte, le maintien ou la reprise de cette activité thérapeutique essentielle pour de nombreux patients souffrant de troubles psychiatriques nécessite des adaptations matérielles, humaines et logistiques qu’il convient d’encadrer. L’objectif de ce travail collectif et national est de proposer des recommandations simples et applicables immédiatement par tout établissement de santé, public ou privé, pratiquant les ECT. Elles sont issues d’un retour d’expériences pluriprofessionnelles et interétablissements. Déclinées en trois étapes, ces recommandations sont accompagnées d’une fiche pratique qui décrit, de façon précise, les conditions nécessaires et préalables à toute reprise d’activité ECT.

Abstract
Most hospitals use protocols for surgical antibioprophylaxis (ABP). Despite SFB's 2009 recommendations promoting ABP in burn patients and stating the molecules to be used, wide variations exist within hospitals and among French hospitals, in cases of skin grafting and use of dermal substitutes. We contacted surgeons in 12 French Burn Centres (BCs) via email and questioned them about ABP in cases of skin grafting (thin and total) as well as in the use of dermal substitutes, in acute and sequelae settings. Eight BCs answered. In the acute phase, 3 BCs (37.5%) always use ABP in skin grafts, 2 (25%) use ABP on suspicion of wound infection and 3 (37.5%) never use ABP. When installing skin substitute, 5 BCs (62.5%) use ABP, one (12.5%) does so if the wound is suspected of being infected and 2 (25%) never use ABP. For sequelae, 5 BCs (62.5%) use ABP whatever the surgery, while 3 (37.5%) never use it. Infection onset after skin graft or use of dermal substitute is frequent. Our study shows wide variations in the use of ABP in these surgeries. A multi-centre evaluation of the implementation of SFB's 2009 recommendations and their role in preventing postoperative infections after skin grafting and skin substitute use, both in acute and sequelae phases, could help harmonize practices in BCs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS The current standard of care for resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is surgery-first followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. We review our single center experience in a PDAC cohort managed by the surgery-first strategy. We then compare our data to those of Belgian and international literature. PATIENTS METHODS We reviewed a series of 83 consecutive resectable patients with PDAC, treated by the surgery-first approach in a Belgian Academic Hospital between 2007 and 2013. The outcomes were assessed with univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis. Kaplan-Meier curves were drawn according to patient groups. RESULTS For the entire population, the median survival (MS) was 18.4 months; the 1-year relapse-free survival was 56%, and the 5-year overall survival (OS) was 13%. The size of the primary tumor larger than 3 cm (OS, HR = 1.76, p = 0.033) and vascular resection (DFS, HR = 2.1, p = 0.024) were the single independent prognostic factors in the multivariate analysis of this cohort. Only 69% of the patients received adjuvant chemotherapy, and more than 75% of them demonstrated no chance of survival beyond 3 years because they harbored poor prognostic factors, recognized only postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS Our results and those published in the literature brought to light the limited perspectives of the surgery-first strategy in a population of apparently resectable pancreatic cancers. In comparison, data from reported neo-adjuvant series deserve our interest to bring this strategy upfront in selected patients in the context of close observational monitoring and randomized trials. The actual standard of care for resectable PDAC is surgery-first followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. The performance of this strategy relies on the dedicated imaging that does not accurately recognize the limits of the tumor and the high prevalence of adverse prognostic factors. Moreover, pancreatectomy remains associated with high postoperative complication rates and the poor completion of adjuvant therapy. This translates into poor long-term survival figures. In our series the MS was 18.4 months and 5-year OS was 13%. The disease-free survival (DFS) was 15.6 months, 1 and 3-year DFS were 56 and 26%, respectively. The variables that significantly correlated with OS in univariate analysis are tumor size and lymph node involvement. Regarding DFS, vascular resection was the only significant factor. In the multivariate analysis, the only significant factor related to OS remained the tumor size >3 cm in greatest diameter. Vascular resection remained significant for DFS. 31% of the patients did not receive any chemotherapy at all before the 6-month period following resection. The rates of complete resections compared favorably with those of a surgery-first strategy with no excess of operative mortality, complications and early relapse rates. The advantages of a chemotherapy-first approach, eventually combined with chemo-radiotherapy, are to offer higher combined therapy completion rates and improve the level of free resection margins, lymph node involvement and patient selection. The advent of safe, more potent chemotherapy combinations has the potential to further improve survival when administered upfront.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES PCA3 performance as a single second line biomarker is compared to the European Randomised Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer risk calculator model 3 (ERSPC RC-3) in an opportunistic screening in prostate cancer (PCa). MATERIAL AND METHODS 5,199 men, aged 40-75y, underwent prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening and digital rectal examination (DRE). Men with a normal DRE and PSA ≥3ng/ml had a PCA3 test done. All men with PCA3 ≥35 underwent an initial biopsy (IBx) -12 cores-. Men with PCA3 <35 were randomized 1:1 to either IBx or observation. We compared them to those obtained with ERSPC RC-3. RESULTS PCA3 test was performed on 838 men (16.1%). In PCA3(+) and PCA3(-) groups, global PCa detection rates were 40.9% and 14.7% with a median follow-up (FU) of 21.7 months (P<.001). In the PCA3(+) arm (n=301, 35.9%), PCa was identified in 115 men at IBx (38.2%). In the randomized arm, 256 underwent IBx and PCa was found in 46 (18.0%) (P<.001). The biopsy-sparing potential would have been 64.1% as opposed to 76.6% if we had used ERSPC RC-3. However, the estimated false negative cases for HGPCa would have been reduced by 37.1% (89 to 56 patients). Moreover, if we had applied PCA3-35 to avoid IBx, 14.7% PCa and 9.1% of clinical significant PCa patients would not have been diagnosed during this FU. CONCLUSIONS When PCA3-35 is used as a second-line biomarker when PSA ≥3ng/ml and DRE is normal, IBx could be avoided in 12.5% less than if ERSPC RC-3 is used and would reduce the false negative cases by 36.2%. At a FU of 21.7 months, this dual protocol would miss 9.1% of clinically significant PCa, so strict FU is mandatory with established biopsy criteria based on PSA and DRE in cases with PCA3 <35.

Abstract
Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) also known as Rendu-Osler disease is a group of related disorders inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion and characterized by the development of arteriovenous malformations (AVM) in the skin, mucous membranes, and/or internal organs such as the brain, lungs, and liver. The prevalence of liver involvement is clinically estimated between 8 and 31 percent. It can be revealed by the following clinical signs : ascites, edema of the lower extremities, abdominal pain, dyspnea, and, rarely, hepatic encephalopathy and gastrointestinal bleeding associated with portal hypertension. This case illustrates the highlight of liver damage revealed by an ammonia encephalopathy associated with iconographic anomalies on ultrasonography and magnetic resonance liver as part of Rendu-Osler disease.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is characterized by a high rate of early metastatic relapse. Surgical resection is still recognized as the cornerstone upfront therapy. However, reported 5 years survival rates are inferior to 20-25% even when surgery is followed by chemotherapy. Margins involvement on the surgical specimen (50 to 85%) and lymph node involvement (around 70%) both strongly impact survival. Median survivals are close to those of locally advanced diseases treated by chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy, 15 to 16 months. This review focuses on adverse prognostic factors, post-operative outcomes and their impact on multimodality therapy completion rates and survivals in patients undergoing upfront surgery. Current data and emerging results from neoadjuvant series could lead to a change in the therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To know the necessary information to reproduce the results found in the literature on active surveillance (AS) in prostate cancer (PCa) in our own center so that the information would be objective and correctly given to the patients. We have aimed to study the percentage of candidates for AS chosen in our setting, and the data on infrastaging, subgrading and prediction of insignificant PCa, debugging the predictive value of clinical variables to improve our selection criteria and finally to analyze the results of our patients enrolled in AS. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retro- and prospective review of our data bases was performed. A one-year period was analyzed to know AS candidates. Analysis of our radical prostatectomy specimens for infrastaging, subgrading and prediction of insignificant PCa (Epstein's criteria) was made as well as a uni/multivariate analysis of clinical variables in patients with insignificant PCa in the specimen. A prospective validation was performed with overall survival and survival free of active treatment (SFAT) as endpoints in patients enrolled in AS. RESULTS Between October-2010/October-2011, 44.7% of our PCa were candidates for AS, but only 11.2% choose it. The percentages found for infrastaging, subgrading and prediction of insignificant PCa were 14%, 31.4% and 55.7%, respectively. However, only just 6 patients (6.97%) had≥pT3a+Gleason≥7+volume>0.5cc PCa. The multivariate analysis showed that PSA density and number of affected cores were independent predictors of insignificant PCa. With a mean follow-up of 36±39months, 63 out of 232 patients enrolled in AS went on to active treatment (27.1%), with only 13 due to anxiety without pathologic progression. Median time of SFAT was 72.7 months (CI 95% 30.9-114.4). SFAT at 24 months was 76.4% (69.7-83.1%) and at 48 months 58.1% (48.8-67.4%). Only 10 patients died (4.3%), 9 due to causes different of PCa. Estimated overall survival at 5 years was 92.8% (CI 95% 86.7-98.9%). CONCLUSIONS It should be mandatory to have the exact knowledge of the local data of each Center in order to objectively inform patients about prostate biopsy efficiency, and if percentages of infrastaging, subgrading and prediction of insignificant PCa are in accordance with the literature. At 3 years, we reproduced the results of the longest series of AS, so we have ascertained that our AS protocol can be implemented with increasingly more patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To reduce unnecessary biopsies (Bx) in an opportunistic screening programme of prostate cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS We perform a prospective evaluation of PCA3 as a second line biomarker in an opportunistic screening for prostate cancer (PCa). From September-2010 until September-2012, 2,366 men, aged 40-74 years and with >10 years life expectancy, were initially screened with PSA/digital rectal examination (DRE). Men with previous Bx or with recent urine infections were excluded. Men with abnormal DRE and/or PSA >3 ng/ml were submitted for PCA3. All men with PCA3 ≥ 35 underwent an initial biopsy (IBx) -12cores-. Men with PCA3 < 35 were randomized 1:1 to either IBx or observation. Re-biopsy(16-18 cores) criteria were PSA increase >.5 ng/ml at 4-6 months or PSAv > .75 ng/ml/year. RESULTS With median follow-up (FU) of 10.1 months, PCA3 was performed in 321/2366 men (13.57%), 289 at first visit and 32 during FU. All 110 PCA3+ men (34.3%) were biopsied and PCa was identified in 43 men in IBx (39.1%). In the randomized arm, 110 were observed and 101 underwent biopsy, finding 12 PCa (11.9%), showing a statistically significant reduction of PCa detection rate in this cohort (P<.001). Global PCa detection rates were 40.9% and 9.5% for the PCA3+ and PCA3- branches, respectively (P<.001). Area under the curve for PSA and PCA3 were .601 and .74, respectively. This is an ongoing prospective study limited by its short follow-up period and still limited enrolment. CONCLUSIONS PCA3 as a second line biomarker within an opportunistic dual screening protocol, can potentially avoid 65.7% and 50.1% biopsies at first round and at median FU of 10.1 months, respectively, just missing around 3.2% of high grade PCa.

Abstract
Surgical antibiotic prophylaxis has demonstrated its effectiveness in reducing surgical site infections. Existing recommendations for adults are however subject to poor compliance. Surgical antibiotic representing a significant proportion of antibiotic prescriptions, it is then important to respect its general principles (narrow spectrum, short duration, choosing molecules different than the ones used in therapeutics, etc.) to limit its impact on the bacterial ecology. A brief survey of pediatric practices in five French university hospitals has allowed us to highlight some significant changes in terms of choice of molecule or duration. Through the experience of harmonizing practices at the University Hospital of Nantes, we showed that the development of national guidelines is a prerequisite to harmonize practices but must be accompanied by a multidisciplinary reflexion within each hospital in order to improve their acceptability and application.

Abstract
The impact on turbulent transport of geodesic acoustic modes excited by energetic particles is evidenced for the first time in flux-driven 5D gyrokinetic simulations using the Gysela code. Energetic geodesic acoustic modes (EGAMs) are excited in a regime with a transport barrier in the outer radial region. The interaction between EGAMs and turbulence is such that turbulent transport can be enhanced in the presence of EGAMs, with the subsequent destruction of the transport barrier. This scenario could be particularly critical in those plasmas, such as burning plasmas, exhibiting a rich population of suprathermal particles capable of exciting energetic modes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine our results in high risk (HR) prostate cancer (PCa) patients treated with radical prostatectomy (RP) and to establish preoperative prognosis factors. MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective study of 925 RP. Mean follow-up for the HR group was 89.8+/-53.6 months. Following NCCN criteria, we operated 210 (22.7%) HR and 715 (77.3%) low/intermediate risk patients. End point was metastatic progression. Kaplan-Meier method for survival comparison among groups and Cox regression model for multivariate analysis of preoperative prognostic factors were used. RESULTS Revised period; 1986-2007. Fifty-four patients (25.7%) were free of disease and 8 patients (3.8%) died for other causes free of disease. Disease progressed in 148 patients (70.5%); death due to tumour progression occurred in 42 cases (20%) and due to other causes in 25 patients (11.9%). Seventy-nine patients in HR group (38%) vs 549 low/intermediate risk group (78.5%) did not deserve further treatments (p<0.001). The uni and multivariate analysis for metastatic progression showed both Gleason score at biopsy (RR=1.922; 95% CI 1.106-3.341, p=0.020) and clinical stage (RR=2.290; 95% CI 1.269-4.133, p=0.006) showed independent prognostic value for metastatic progression, but not PSA. CONCLUSIONS A HR patient can be cured in a third of the cases and will need multimodal treatments in more than half of the times. We prompt surgery in a young healthy patient with a resectable tumour, mainly if just one bad prognostic factor is present and defiantly if this is just PSA elevation.

Abstract
In a tokamak plasma, sawtooth oscillations in the central temperature, caused by a magnetohydrodynamic instability, can be partially stabilized by fast ions. The resulting less frequent sawtooth crashes can trigger unwanted magnetohydrodynamic activity. This Letter reports on experiments showing that modest electron-cyclotron current drive power, with the deposition positioned by feedback control of the injection angle, can reliably shorten the sawtooth period in the presence of ions with energies >or=0.5 MeV. Certain surprising elements of the results are evaluated qualitatively in terms of existing theory.

Abstract
PURPOSE In this study we identified homogeneous risk groups, with no survival overlap among the subgroups that make up each risk group, in patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder treated with radical cystectomy alone. MATERIALS AND METHODS Predictive factors for tumor death were analyzed with univariate and multivariate analysis among a group of 298 patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder treated with radical cystectomy alone. Independent variables were progressively incorporated according to their statistical power in a stepwise process identifying a model with independent subgroups. The risk groups were identified according to different survival cutoff points including subgroups with similar survival. To search a clinical application and to check the strength of this model a new model was also set up using the weight score based on the size of hazard ratio from multivariate analysis. RESULTS Univariate analysis demonstrated that lymphatic invasion status, pathological stage (P), lymph node status (N) and prostatic stroma status (St) were predictive variables for tumor death, and the latter 3 were independent variables in the multivariate analysis. By taking the most powerful, N, as the reference variable, and progressively incorporating additional variables, a model was found including 7 independent subgroups. In this model only 2 subgroups, N1 and N2-3, included more than 1 category and their survival was also calculated. Three risk groups were identified establishing different survival cutoffs. The 5-year cancer specific survival rate was 86.4% for low risk (P1-2N0St-), 64.4% (range 60.9% to 65.3%) for intermediate risk (P1-2N1St-, P3N0St-, HR = 2.7) and 28.1% (range 0% to 47.7%) for high risk (N2-3, P4, St+, N1P3, HR = 8.7). This model was also reproduced using the weight score based on the size of the hazard ratio from the multivariate analysis CONCLUSIONS Three homogeneous risk groups were identified with high statistically significant survival differences among them and no survival overlap among subgroups that make up the risk groups.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the prognoses and predictive factors of late oncological occurrences and its impact on follow-up strategy in patients with bladder tumours treated with radical cystectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Late oncological occurrences were considered when they took place after three years from cystectomy or when early recurrence was controlled with therapy and patients developed recurrence again after a three-year disease-free interval. Univariate and multivariate analysis of predictive factors for late oncological occurrences were carried out on 215 patients at risk of late oncological recurrences. RESULTS Among 357 patients treated with cystectomy, 163 (45.6%) relapsed, 149 (41.7%) of them as early recurrence and 17 (4.7%) were considered as late oncological events. This incidence increased up to 8% when patients at risk were considered. Three patients with early recurrence reached a complete response after treatment and relapsed again as late recurrences. Distant metastases and local recurrence represented 78.5% of early recurrence as opposed to 11.7% in late oncological occurrences, whereas, extravesical urothelium recurrences represented 8.6% and 70% respectively (p<0.01). Among patients with late oncological occurrences, nine (53%) were disease-free, seven with urothelial recurrence and two of three with lymph-node recurrence whereas only eight (5.6%) patients with early recurrence were free of tumour (p<0.0001). Multiple tumours, prostate involvement and organ-confined tumours in cystectomy specimen were the independent variables for predicting late oncological occurrences in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS Recurrences in the remaining urothelium prevail as the pattern of late oncological occurrences. The prognosis of these events is significantly better than an early recurrence. Patients at risk of late oncological occurrences are those with multiple tumours, prostate involvement and with organ-confined tumours in cystectomy specimen. After three years from cystectomy, the follow-up schedule of these patients be limited to performing an annual CT-scan and urinary cytology to detect essentially upper urinary tract recurrence and extrapelvic lymph-nodal recurrence. Afterwards an annual intravenous urography might replace to CT-scan since lymph-nodal involvement was not detected.

Abstract
PURPOSE We analyzed the 3-month clinical response to intravesical therapy as a factor predictive of progression in patients with high risk superficial bladder cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS We evaluated 191 patients with high risk superficial bladder cancer, 111 with secondary or associated bladder carcinoma in situ and 80 with stage T1 grade 3 disease who were treated with intravesical therapy. We considered only clinically complete and no responses at the 3-month endoscopic study. To determine the predictive value of the 3-month clinical response we differentiated progression into superficial and invasive types. RESULTS At a median followup of 73 months 91 patients (47.6%) had progression, which was superficial in 48 (25. 1%) and invasive in 43 (22.5%). Invasive progression was associated with significantly higher cause specific mortality than superficial progression (p = 0). In the latter cases cause specific mortality was higher than in those without progression (p = 0.001). Although cystectomy significantly decreased the cause specific mortality rate in patients with invasive progression (p = 0.0001), this rate was high at 46.3%. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that the 3-month clinical response was a significant predictive factor for progression. Moreover, stratifying this variable showed that this response was the only independent factor predictive of invasive progression in cases of no response with stage T1 grade 3 tumor, bladder carcinoma in situ, or prostate mucosa or duct involvement (p = 0). In our series 41 patients (21.5%) did not respond after intravesical therapy at the 3-month evaluation, including 29 with stage T1 grade 3 disease, bladder carcinoma in situ, or prostate mucosa or duct involvement. Progression in 24 of these 29 patients (82.3%) was classified as invasive in 21 (73.6%). CONCLUSIONS Invasive progression threatens the cause specific survival of patients with high risk superficial bladder cancer even when cystectomy is performed. The 3-month clinical response was an excellent predictive factor for invasive progression. Early cystectomy should be considered when stage T1 grade 3 tumor, bladder carcinoma in situ, or prostate mucosa or duct involvement is present at the 3-month clinical evaluation.

Abstract
Prior to the implementation of a computer-based patient record, it is necessary to outline the requirements of the medical personnel. The paper is an account of a survey on information needs and demands on computer-based patient records. The study was conducted among physicians, nursing staff and therapists in two Dutch hospitals. In order to conduct the study, a measuring-instrument in form of a questionnaire was developed. Based on the results, it may be concluded, that health service staff does not only require improved input- and consultation uses with regard to the hard copy, but is also in need of additional functions. The developed measuring instrument appeared to be a proficient aid in outlining the information needs and demands of the health service staff. Through the developed questionnaire, the staff was able to obtain an idea of the possibilities of the computer-based patient record and state their own interest in same.

Abstract
PURPOSE We analyze the impact of a single mitomycin C instillation in patients with low risk superficial bladder cancer with short and long-term followup. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 131 patients with low risk superficial bladder cancer were included in a prospective randomized controlled trial. All patients had a 3 cm or less single, papillary, primary or recurrent tumor and were disease-free for more than 1 year. Patients with muscular invasion, G3 tumor or bladder carcinoma in situ on pathological examination were excluded from study. The tumor was completely resected before patients were randomized into 2 arms of no further treatment (control group) and a single immediate instillation of 30 mg mitomycin C (mitomycin C group). Recurrences were considered early within the first 2 years of followup. RESULTS At 24-month followup the recurrence-free interval was significantly increased, and recurrence, and recurrence and tumor per year rates were decreased in the mitomycin C compared to the control group. However, at long-term followup these differences were not statistically significant and the recurrence-free interval curves were parallel. A shorter hospital stay and catheterization period were noted in the mitomycin C group compared to the control group, which were not significant. Early recurrences were concentrated in the first year in the control but not in the mitomycin C group. A significant relationship between early and late recurrences was found in the mitomycin C but not in the control group. CONCLUSIONS Our analysis confirms the positive effect of a single immediate mitomycin C instillation in patients with low risk superficial bladder cancer. This benefit is limited to early recurrence and is not maintained with long-term followup. Thus, this approach is an alternative to observation or endovesical chemotherapy. Our study also suggests that cell implantation as a mechanism of early recurrence can be controlled with a single mitomycin C instillation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyze the biologic behavior and etiologic mechanism of upper-tract involvement in patients with bladder cancer in situ (Tis) and its impact on management of these patients. METHODS One hundred thirty-eight patients with bladder Tis, 786 with superficial bladder cancer, and 179 patients with invasive bladder cancer treated by cystectomy were studied: 34 (24.6%), 18 (2.3%), and 7 (3.9%) developed upper-tract involvement in each group, respectively. Sixty-three patients with primary urothelial upper-tract tumors were also studied. Taking progression-free survival as an end point, univariate and multivariate analyses were performed. RESULTS The upper-tract recurrence rate was significantly higher in patients with bladder Tis than in patients with superficial bladder tumors (P <0.001); it was also significantly higher in patients treated with cystectomy because of bladder Tis compared with those treated because of invasive tumors (P <0.01). Patients with bladder Tis and upper-tract involvement showed high rates of upper-tract bilaterality (32.3%) and prostate involvement (67.4%). On pathologic examination, the upper tract showed predominantly superficial (Ta-T1-Tis) tumors (67.4%) and distal ureter location as the only finding (47%). In patients with bladder Tis, upper-tract involvement alone does not have a negative impact on the survival rate according to univariate and multivariate analysis (P = NS). CONCLUSIONS In patients with bladder Tis, upper-tract involvement represents a diffuse process; therefore, a close evaluation of both the prostate and the upper tract is recommended. Upper-tract involvement has no impact on bladder-preservation strategy. Many of these patients could also be offered a conservative management for the involved upper tract.

Abstract
PURPOSE The biological and therapeutic implications of extravesical involvement in patients with bladder carcinoma in situ were analyzed. MATERIALS AND METHODS Of 138 patients with bladder carcinoma in situ 87 (63%) had extravesical involvement, including the prostate in 53, the upper urinary tract in 11 and both structures in 23 (pan-urothelial involvement). With survival free of disease as an end point, univariate and multivariate analyses were done. RESULTS Patients with extravesical involvement had worse survival than those with bladder carcinoma in situ alone (p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis prostate involvement (p = 0.0007) and pan-urothelial involvement (p = 0.0001) were selected as significant variables. When pathological patterns were considered prostatic stromal invasion (p = 0.0002) was the only variable selected. With these data 3 patient groups with disease mortality risk were defined. CONCLUSIONS Prostate involvement and pan-urothelial involvement behave as independent prognostic factors, with the latter probably reflecting an extremetly diffuse character of carcinoma in situ. However, the upper urinary tract had no influence on survival. In patients with upper urinary tract and/or prostatic involvement limited to the mucosa treatment can be conservative. Patients with ductal or stromal involvement should undergo radical treatment. For upper tract involvement conservative approaches may be considered if there are no radiological signs of invasion or low grade tumor.

Abstract
We report 18 consecutive patients with testis cancer and retroperitoneal residual masses with normal tumor markers, who underwent lymphadenectomy. Aiming to preserve the antegrade ejaculation, we carried out surgical modifications which basically attempt to preserve: (1) both sympathetic lumbar trunks, (2) the superior hypogastric plexus and (3) some of the postganglionic branches. With a mean follow-up of 28.1 months (range 6-62 months), 15 (83.3%) of the 18 patients preserved ejaculation, without significant differences between ejaculation volumes before and after lymphadenectomy. At the present time, 3 of 4 possible patients have fathered children. Mass size seems to be an important predictive factor of ejaculation preservation. One patient relapsed in the retroperitoneal dissection area, representing a recurrence rate of 5.5%. The disease-free survival rate was 94.4%, and 1 patient died due to disease progression with lung recurrence. Thus preservation of ejaculation was possible in most of these patients.

Abstract
A prospective study was done to evaluate treatment of patients with muscle-infiltrating bladder cancer by transurethral resection exclusively. Inclusion criteria for this study were histological confirmation of muscular bladder infiltration, endoscopic radical transurethral resection, disappearance of hardened areas after transurethral resection, and negative biopsies of the depth and periphery of the tumor bed. The study began in April 1981. The average followup in series 1 (April 1981 to December 1986, 59 patients) was 55.4 months. Actually, of the patients 31 (52.5%) are without evidence of recurrence and 28 (47.5%) have recurrent disease. Of the latter patients 11 (18.6%) had invasive bladder recurrence, including 7 (11.9%) who had recurrence at 3 months, which indicated clinical understaging. Three patients (5%) had metastases without bladder tumor. The remaining 14 patients (23.7%) had superficial bladder recurrence. The overall survival rate was 83% (49 of 59 patients) and 43 patients (72.8%) still retain the bladder. The present data are confirmed by the results of series 2 (December 1986 to August 1989). Therefore, the data would justify conservative management in a selected group of patients with muscle-infiltrating bladder cancer.
