Abstract
The ageing of the population leads health professionals to question the tolerance and the effectiveness of the different biotherapies used in autoimmune diseases. Due to the exponential increase of biotherapies and their indications, several studies have been carried out to evaluate their impact on elderly patients suffering from autoimmune disease. However, these studies are still too few to take into account all the different specificities of elderly patients and their comorbidities; prescribers are therefore hesitant with their introduction after 75 years or even 65. More than the age of patients, it is necessary to evaluate the comorbidities before introducing this kind of treatments. Every biotherapy has different indications and contraindications, which must be known to adapt each treatment to each patient. This focus aims to remind of the adaptations and contraindications of the different biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs for geriatric population, and improve their uses since the treatments for these patients are sometimes not enough. Here we resume the methods allowing supervisors to identify errors of clinical reasoning in medical students and interns and we explain remediation techniques adapted to the types of error identified. Access to short illustrative videos of a MOOC (Massive Open On line Course) devoted to the supervision of clinical reasoning constitutes practical help for supervisors who are not expert in the complexity of medical pedagogy at the bedside.

Abstract
Background:An alert regarding about the tolerance of Interleukin 17 (IL-17) inhibitors has been issued from data of randomized controlled trials showing cases of de novo inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). In a recent analysis of pooled data from 21 clinical trials, cases of IBD events (including Crohn’s disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC) and inflammatory bowel disease unclassified (IBDU)) were uncommon (1). Yet, real-world data are lacking.Objectives:To describe real-world data about patients treated by IL-17 inhibitors developing new onset IBD (CD or UC).Methods:A French national registry called MISSIL was started in February 2018 to collect the cases of patients treated by IL-17 inhibitors developing new onset IBD. This registry is conducted by rheumatologist, dermatologist and gastroenterologist learned societies specialized on immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. In France, secukinumab (SEK) has been granted market authorization since June 2016 and ixekizumab since April 2018.Results:24 cases under SEK were reported between February 2018 and January 2020: 3 patients with psoriasis and 21 patients with spondylwoarthritis. There were 20 patients with new onset CD and 4 with UC. Mean age was 51.7 ± 15.7 years old and 12/24 were female; 10 presented an axial spondyloarthritis, 5 a peripheral spondyloarthritis and 6 both,13/17 were HLA-B27 positive,7/19 had a radiographic sacroiliitis and 11/17 a MRI sacroiliitis. Only 2 were biological Disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (bDMARD)-naïve. Crohn’s disease was mainly located at the ileum, colon and rectum. The median time to onset of symptoms was 2 (1-6) months. The main symptoms were diarrhea, nausea and vomiting and loss of weight. Median CRP at the onset of symptoms was 68 mg/L (41-140.5); 21 patients underwent biopsies, 12 were in favor of CD. IL-17 inhibitors were consistently stopped. Patients were treated by corticosteroids (16/24), mesalazine (7/24), methotrexate (3/24), thiopurines (2/24), infliximab (9/243), adalimumab (3/24), golimumab (2/24), ustekinumab (5/24). The evolution was favorable under treatment with complete resolution (4/24), improvement (11/24) or stabilization (5/24). 3 patients worsened under treatment and 1 died (massive myocardial infarction).Conclusion:IBD flare in patients treated with IL-17 inhibitors are rare and lead to discuss the potential iatrogenic role of IL-17 inhibitor drugs. Further cases are needed to better characterize this complication. A case-control study will be conducted to identify patients at risk to develop IBD under IL-17 inhibitor.References:[1]Reich et al.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Septic arthritis of the facet joint is a rare clinical entity. We report 11 cases of facet joint infections diagnosed in our institution. PATIENTS AND METHOD Patients were identified via the computerized patients record (PMSI). Their features were collected and compared with published data. RESULTS The clinical symptoms are similar to those of infectious spondylodiscitis: back pain with stiffness (11/11), fever (9/11), radicular pain (5/11), and asthenia. Ten patients presented with lumbar infection and 1 with dorsal infection. An inflammatory syndrome was observed in every case. A rapid access to spine MRI allowed making the diagnosis in every case, and assessing a potential extension of infection (epidural extension 5/11, paraspinal extension 5/11). Blood culture (8/11) or culture of spinal samples allowed identifying the causative bacterium in every case and adapting the antibiotic treatment. The bacteria identified in our series were different from previously reported ones, with less staphylococci. The origin of the infection was found in 4 cases. Another localization of infection was observed in 4 cases. The outcome was favorable with medical treatment in 10 cases. An abscess was surgically drained in 1 case. None of our patients presented with neurological complications, probably because of the rapid diagnosis. CONCLUSION Assessing the facet joint is essential in case of inflammatory back pain, and the radiologist must be asked to perform this examination.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify medical and nonmedical reasons for admission of disk-related sciatica patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS 125 patients were evaluated prospectively using a 25-items questionnaire, including seven items on medical reasons, four on psychological reasons, four on work-related reasons, six on social and family reasons, and four on miscellaneous reasons. RESULTS Severe nerve root pain (34%), motor loss (17%), atypical clinical manifestations (13%), severe low back pain (8%), and/or sphincter dysfunction (4%) were recorded in only 55% of patients, and only 16% had at least two of these reasons. A minority of patients were admitted to avoid premature surgery (13%) or to try one more conservative approach prior to surgery (15%). Seventy-five per cent of patients reported at least one of the psychological reasons listed in the questionnaire (irritability/fatigue, 66%; anxiety, 42%; depression, 26%; panic disorder, 21%), 50% reported at least one work-related reason (workaholism, 21%; job offer, 16%; self-employed, 14%; fear of losing their job, 11%), 66% reported at least one social or family reason (living alone, 34%; one or more dependents younger than seven years of age, 32%; too many demands from household members, 22%; one or more dependents older than seven years of age, 8%; need to care for another person, 9%; important upcoming family or personal event, 6%), and 26% reported at least one miscellaneous reason (firm belief that sciatica can be cured only by inhospital treatment, 10%; desire to put pressure on the employer or on an expert, 7% and 6%, respectively; admission via the emergency room without prior medical advice, 6%). CONCLUSION In France, the reason for admission of patients with disk-related sciatica is frequently a mixture of physical, psychological, and social problems, with only 55% of patients having a symptom requiring inhospital management.
