Abstract
Background Outcome of intermediate risk rectal cancer may be improved by the addition of oxaliplatin during 5-fluoruracil concomitant neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. The purpose of this study is to analyze the main clinical results of the ACCORD12 trial (NCT00227747) in rectal cancer after 5 years of follow-up. Patients and methods Inclusion criteria were as follows: rectal adenocarcinoma accessible to digital examination staged T3-T4 Nx M0 (or T2 Nx distal anterior rectum). Two neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy regimens were randomized: CAP45 (RT 45 Gy + capecitabine) and CAPOX50 (RT 50 Gy + capecitabine and oxaliplatin). Main end point was sterilization of the operative specimen. Acute and late toxicities were prospectively analyzed with dedicated questionnaires. Results Between November 2005 and July 2008, 598 patients were included in the trial. After a median follow-up of 60.2 months, there was no difference between treatment arms in multivariate analysis either for disease-free survival or overall survival (OS) [P = 0.9, hazard ratio (HR)=1.02; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.76-1.36 and P = 0.3, HR = 0.87; 95% CI, 0.66-1.15, respectively]. There was also no difference of local control in univariate analysis (P = 0.7, HR = 0.92; 95% CI, 0.51-1.66). Late toxicities were acceptable with 1.6% G3 anal incontinence, and <1% G3 diarrhea, G3 rectal bleeding, G3 stenosis, G3-4 pain, G3 urinary incontinence, G3 urinary retention and G3 skeletal toxicity. There was a slight increase of erectile dysfunction over time with a 63% rate of erectile dysfunction at 5 years. There was no significant statistical difference for these toxicities between treatment arms. Conclusions The CAPOX50 regimen did not improve local control, disease-free survival and overall survival in the ACCORD12 trial. Late toxicities did not differ between treatment arms.

Abstract
605 Background: In a randomized phase II study, P. Piedbois et al. explored a dose-dense docetaxel (T) followed by epirubicin/cyclophosphamide (EC) every two weeks versus the reverse sequence, versus standard-dose docetaxel, epiribucin and cyclophosphamide (TEC) every 3 weeks. The main purpose of this second analysis was to further explore the haematological safety of each regimen in patients receiving primary prophylactic pegfilgrastim. Methods: One hundred patients with node-positive invasive breast adenocarcinoma were randomized between (arm A) docetaxel 75 mg/m2, epiribucin 75 mg/m2 and cyclophosphamide 500 mg/m2 (TEC) every 3 weeks for 6 cycles (35 patients) or (arm B) epiribucin 100 mg/m2 and cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2 every 2 weeks for 4 cycles, followed by T 100 mg/m2 (EC→T) every 2 weeks for 4 cycles (31 patients) or (arm C) T→ EC (34 patients). Among the 99 patients who received chemotherapy, 79 received pegfilgrastim 6 mg subcutaneous day 1 from the first cycle (27 in arm A, 23 in arm B and 29 in arm C). The safety data of these 79 patients were reported here. Results: Our results showed grade 3/4: neutropenia (arm A 30 %, arm B 39 %, arm C 31 %) and febrile neutropenia (FN) (arm A 11 %, arm B 13 %, arm C 3 %), grade 2–4: anaemia (arm A 26 %, arm B 61 %, arm C 55 %) and thrombocytopenia (arm A 15 %, arm B 9 %, arm C 3 %), respectively. Crude proportion and time to toxicity summaries showed that in dose-dense arms, patients allocated to the EC→ T sequence were more exposed to FN than patients allocated to the T→ EC. In the Cox model taking into account all allocated treatment and age, treatment was a predictor of grade 2–4 anaemia, whereas age was significantly correlated to grade 2–4 thrombocytopenia. There was no clear relationship between haematological toxicity and dose intensity across all treatment arms. Except for nausea (17 % versus 3 %) and neurological toxicity (13 % versus 3 %), non-haematological toxicities were similar in arm B and C. Conclusions: These analyzes confirmed that dose-dense regimens EC→ T or T→ EC are feasible with pegfilgrastim primary prophylaxis. The T→ EC sequence seems to be associated with a better haematological tolerance, and should be the preferred dose-dense regimen providing similar efficacy. The trial was supported by Amgen. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
Post-menopausal osteoporosis is a public health problem, because of its extreme frequency and its related fractures. Gynaecologists play an important role in the early detection of patients whose bones are at risk. During the consultation, a routine examination, asking pertinent questions and taking height and weight measurements, allows for the discovery of modifiable risk factors - diet, life style: physical activity, alcohol and tobacco consumption, etc. Gynaecologists are in a particularly good position to intervene. Indeed, they can inform and advise these patients at risk, by recommending a diet rich in calcium, vitamin D and protein, maintaining a healthy BMI, a sufficient exposure to sunlight, daily physical activity with a preference for weight-bearing exercise, avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol. These simple changes for a healthy life style can slow down the loss of bone density, and this well before any loss due to estrogen deficiency.

Abstract
It is common knowledge that when women reach the menopause, they put on weight and change body shape. The menopause is particularly feared as a sign of aging. The deficiency in estrogen at the menopause is responsible for the change from a gynoid fat pattern to an android one (i.e. fat accumulates on the upper portion of the abdomen instead of on the hips). In addition, women are no longer protected against CardioVascular Diseases (CVD), and will rapidly share the same risks as men. The menopause is marked by an increase in the prevalence of various CVD risk factors: elevated blood pressure, hypertriglyceridemia, Diabetes, etc. This phenomenon may be explained by an increase in the occurrence of the polymetabolic (PM) syndrome at this time of life. In the IDF ((International Diabetics Federation) 2005 definition, waist circumference becomes the main criterion of PM syndrome. Keeping a slim waist can no longer be considered a woman's vain obsession but a justified health concern, since the waist to height ratio is a better predictor of CVD than BMI (Body Mass Index). A diet and healthcare program is now available which, if followed from the age of 35, can help women live 'in good shape' and for longer.

Abstract
The efficacy and good safety of fosinopril, an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor recently made available to the medical profession in France, has been demonstrated by several controlled studies versus placebo and reference antihypertensives. A phase IV multicentre clinical trial was conducted among general practitioners in order to assess, on a larger scale and under conditions of daily practice, the results obtained in terms of blood pressure control and quality of life as well as the clinical and laboratory safety of the drug. This analysis was based on 19,435 hypertensive patients, 989 of whom were over the age of 75 years, followed for 12 weeks after introduction of fosinopril either as monotherapy or in combination with the antihypertensive treatment(s) already prescribed. Under these conditions, after 12 weeks of treatment, blood pressure was controlled in 79.8% of patients, with improvement of all items of the quality of life scale. The very low incidence of clinical and laboratory adverse events, even among the oldest patients, confirms the safety of use of fosinopril, predictive of good long-term compliance with treatment.

Abstract
Forty-nine patients admitted for assessment of chest pain underwent coronary angiography, planar Thallium 201 myocardial scintigraphy after submaximal exercise (TE) and transoesophageal atrial pacing (TAP). Early hypofixation with redistribution after 4 h indicated ischaemia. The criterion for a myocardial infarction (MI) was a fixed perfusion defect. Coronary angiography was carried out in all patients. Sixteen patients (group 1) had no MI and over 50% narrowing of at least one main coronary vessel. Ischaemia was noted in 10 of the 16 patients during exercise, and in 14 of the 16 patients during atrial pacing. The sensitivity for the prediction of coronary stenosis was 62% for TE and 87% for TAP. Nineteen patients (group 2) had had a previous MI. Reversible ischaemia was noted in 10 of the 19 patients during exercise, and in 11 of the 19 patients during TAP. Four of 14 patients with normal coronary arteries (group 3) had a reversible ischaemia with TE, and three of these same patients developed a positive scan with TAP. The respective specificities were 71% and 78%. Comparison of segmental hypoperfusion after TE and TAP gave identical results in 72 of the 80 segments studied in group I (90%), and in 88 of the 95 segments studied in group 2 (92%). The localizing value of TAP was good in left anterior descending (12 out of 18) and right coronary disease (16 out of 19), but poor in left circumflex stenosis (3 out of 9) misclassified as right coronary disease in four patients.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
This prospective study had two aims, to study the Doppler parameters of left ventricular systolic function with respect to heart rate, and to determine the influence of ischaemic heart disease on these variations. The Doppler indices (velocity time integral, maximum velocity and average acceleration of systolic flow in the left ventricular outflow tract) were measured and averaged over 3 beats after digitization: the measurements were repeated in 30 patients under basal conditions and after 2 minutes transoesophageal atrial pacing at 150 beats/min. These 30 patients were divided into 3 groups: group 1 control subjects with normal coronary arteries, n = 13, EF = 71 +/- 8.9%; group 2 coronary patients without myocardial infarction (greater than 70% stenosis on coronary angiography), n = 9, EF = 64.3 +/- 10.3%; group 3, coronary patients with previous infarction, n = 8, EF = 51.8 +/- 10.9% (p less than 0.0006). Variance analysis for repeated measurements showed significant decreases in velocity time integrals and maximum velocities after pacing (11.8% +/- 2.2 and 0.86 +/- 0.1 versus 18.3 +/- 2.2 and 0.91 +/- 0.1, p less than 0.0001 and p less than 0.05 respectively). This decrease was identical in the three groups. The variations observed were therefore related to the increase in heart rate and not to coronary status or left ventricular function.

Abstract
Myocardial ischaemia was searched for by Holter monitoring before and after coronary angioplasty with primary success in 31 patients. Control angiography was performed at 24 hours and 6 months after angioplasty. Twelve patients had signs of myocardial ischaemia before angioplasty (cumulated ischaemia: 743 minutes). The degree of coronary stenosis was 92 +/- 6% before angioplasty, 25 +/- 17% immediately after the dilatation increasing to 34 +/- 25% at the 24th hour (p less than 0.002). Despite successful angioplasty myocardial ischaemia persisted in 6 patients (cumulated ischaemia: 184 minutes) and was silent in 5 of the 6 cases. In these 6 cases, control angiography at 24 hours showed either a dissection (n = 4) or a filling defect (n = 2). The angiographic outcome of the postangioplasty stenosis and at 24 hours was the same in Group I without restenosis (25 +/- 14% versus 33 +/- 22%) as in Group II with restenosis (25 +/- 22% versus 37 +/- 30%). In Group I, the degradation of the result at 24 hours was reversible at 6 months (33 +/- 22% vs 23 +/- 14%). After angiographic success, postangioplasty ischaemia present in 20% of cases was frequently silent. No correlation was observed with restenosis at 6 months which raises the possibility of a reversible microthrombotic etiology. These results justify antiaggregant and anticoagulant therapy in the 48 hours following angioplasty.

Abstract
Seventy-nine patients with ischemic mitral regurgitation were followed up for a period of 20 +/- 8 months. The risk of death increased with age and cardiac failure at the time of inclusion. The risk of cardiac events increased with these factors and also with raised serum creatinine and decreased echocardiographic fractional shortening. The global 2 year survival was 72.8% and survival without a further cardiac event was 48.7%. Surgery and angioplasty increased global survival and freedom from cardiac events of patients with severe regurgitation (74.9% and 68.8% versus 59.4% and 46.1% for medical therapy alone). The functional improvement was also greater in patients undergoing surgery or angioplasty (80% of patients in NYHA Stage I versus 53.8% in the medical group). Angioplasty was only performed in cases of paroxysmal mitral regurgitation by reversible papillary muscle ischemia. Surgery (coronary bypass usually associated with mitral valve replacement) was associated with better results than medical therapy alone in permanent mitral regurgitation by papillary muscle dysfunction or rupture. Despite a high immediate mortality, this option should be considered rapidly in cases of severe ischemic mitral regurgitation with pulmonary oedema.

Abstract
Doppler echocardiography has become the method of choice for the evaluation of cardiac valve prostheses. In order to determine the reproducibility of the measurements of pressure gradient and valve surface area, 55 patients with aortic valve prostheses without clinical dysfunction and having at most a trivial regurgitation on color Doppler examination underwent a double evaluation during an average interval of 9 +/- 5 months. The maximum and mean pressure gradients were recorded and the valve surface area calculated using the continuity equation in all cases. The subaortic diameter was taken to be constant and equal to the external diameter of the prosthesis. No significant differences were found between the two evaluations of mean pressure gradient and valve surface area. The intra-patient variability was +/- 8 mmHg for the maximum pressure gradient, +/- 6 mmHg for the mean pressure gradient, +/- 0.33 cm2 for valve surface area calculated using the maximum velocities and +/- 0.44 cm2 when the velocity-time integrals were used. When expressed as a percentage, the mean coefficient of variation was 21 +/- 17% for the maximum pressure gradient, 21 +/- 18% for the mean pressure gradients, 21 +/- 15% for the valve surface area calculated using the maximum velocities and 22 +/- 14% when the ratio of velocity-time integrals was used.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Two cases are reported of late occlusive thrombosis of a mitral bioprosthesis with sinus rhythm. Two men were concerned (40 and 54 years of age), hospitalized for acute pulmonary oedema which was resistant to medical treatment, 3 years after replacement of a mitral valve (Carpentier Edwards No. 31 and Liotta No. 25). Catheterization showed that in both cases there was an average transmitral holodiastolic gradient greater than 25 mmHg. Emergency surgery revealed two anatomical forms of occlusive thrombosis: in one case, a localized red thrombus hindered the opening of a valve cusp; in the other, exuberant fibrin deposits lined the ventricular face of the valve cusps. There were no signs of degeneration of the bioprostheses and, in particular, there was no calcification. Both patients were asymptomatic 1.5 years and 3 years respectively after their operations. Late occlusive thromboses of mitral bioprostheses are exceptional (13 detailed cases collected from the literature).

Abstract
Between 1978 and 1983, 2,970 coronary angiographies were performed at the Cardiology Clinic of Necker Hospital; 220 survivors of an initial Q-wave inferior infarction who had not received thrombolytic therapy were selected. The ejection fraction was 55 +/- 11 per cent, and the indexed end diastolic left ventricular volume was 108 +/- 29 ml/m2. The left anterior descending artery was diseased in 57 per cent of cases. The incidence of multivessel disease was 67 per cent. Two hundred and eleven patients (96%) were followed up for 79 +/- 22 months. The prevalence of cardiovascular events was: cardiac deaths: 22 (10%), recurrent infarction: 20 (9%), angina requiring coronary bypass surgery: 60 (28%), cardiac failure: 22 (10%). The 10 year actuarial survival was significantly lower in patients with an ejection fraction less than 45 per cent (46% vs 91%) and in patients with triple vessel disease (62% vs 92% and 88%). The survival was not lower in patients with stenosis of the left anterior descending artery.

Abstract
Kingella denitrificans is a Gram-negative bacillus which does not grow readily on the usual media. This organism, normally a commensal of the upper airways, may exceptionally be responsible for endocarditis. We report here the sixth case known in the literature. Cure was obtained with an intravenous combination of vancomycin and rifampicin.

Abstract
Endometrial progesterone and estrogen receptors were studied by immunocytochemistry using monoclonal antibodies during the menstrual cycle in normal women. We initially compared immunocytochemical staining of progesterone and estradiol receptors on endometrial fragments obtained by either aspiration or endometrial biopsy and found that immunocytochemistry could be performed easily on tissue obtained in either way. The immunocytochemical studies showed that the concentration and distribution of receptors changed markedly during the normal menstrual cycle. These changes were distributed in three characteristic phases. During phase I, corresponding to the midfollicular period (days 7-8), a small proportion (25%) of stromal and glandular cells stained positively for the progesterone receptor, whereas estrogen receptor staining was more intense and more frequent (50% of cells). Phase II, which included both the late follicular and early luteal periods (days 9-19), was characterized by a marked staining of progesterone receptors in the majority of glandular cells (75%) and somewhat less abundant and less frequent staining in stromal cells (50%). Estrogen receptor staining was present in about half of the glandular and stromal cells. Phase III, the mid- and late luteal period (days 21-27), was characterized by the disappearance of estrogen and progesterone receptor staining in glandular cells, although faint staining for both receptors was found in stromal cells. These variations in progesterone receptor staining are potentially useful for determining the effect of progesterone on endometrial maturation.

Abstract
The frequent coexistence in adults of a tight aortic stenosis and coronary arterial lesions raises problems of therapeutic and diagnostic approach. In an attempt at selecting indications for coronary arteriography, we studied 253 patients with severe aortic stenosis who were explored by that method. 177 patients (70 p. 100) had no coronary disease (group I); 76 patients (30 p. 100) had significant coronary lesions (group II). Group II patients differed from group I patients in several respects: they were older: 65 +/- 9 years on average as against 61 +/- 9 years (p less than 0.01); there was a greater proportion of men in that group: 76 p. 100 vs 58 p. 100 (p less than 0.01); more patients had a history of myocardial infarction: 7 p. 100 vs 0.5 p. 100 (p less than 0.05); calcifications of the coronary arteries were found in 43 p. 100 of the cases as against 15 p. 100 in group I (p less than 0.001); the transvalvular pressure gradient was lower: 50 +/- 30 mmHg vs 72 +/- 31 mmHg (p less than 0.01). There were no other significant differences in risk factors between the two groups, except for overweight which was greater in group II. Attacks of angina were not statistically more frequent in group II (80 p. 100) than in group I (73 p. 100, N.S.). A multifactorial analysis enabled us to establish a discriminant relation involving the patient's age, sex and history of infarction as well as coronary calcifications.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Sixty-eight cases of pregnancy after carcinoma of the breast were collected during a survey conducted by the Société Française de Gynécologie: 27 patients had one or several pregnancies interrupted at an early stage; 41 patients had at least one uninterrupted pregnancy. The fate of these patients was compared to that of 136 controls similar in all respects, except for the absence of post-cancer pregnancy. There was no significant difference in survival curves: the 10-year survival rate in our 68 patients was 71% (90% in those with N- cancer; 71% in those with N+ cancer, with no significant difference between cases and controls in each group). The patients whose pregnancies were interrupted had the same prognosis as those who delivered at term. The survival of 14 patients who conceived within 6 months of the breast cancer treatment was not significantly different from that of the corresponding controls. Pregnancy after breast cancer does not seem to alter the prognosis of the disease. In women with good prognosis cancer, the survival rate is excellent whatever the delay between cancer and pregnancy, and women should not be discouraged from having children; in women with poor prognosis cancer (N+), the outcome is not modified by pregnancy, and it remains lethal in about 50% of cases.
