Ankle-GO Score to Identify Elite Basketball Players Who Will Suffer Lateral Ankle Sprain During a Competitive Season: A 1-Year Prospective Cohort Study
International audienceBackground: Lateral ankle sprain (LAS) is the most common injury in basketball, and identifying at-risk players is of high importance. Purpose: To evaluate the ability of the Ankle-GO score to identify elite basketball players who will suffer LAS during a competitive season as well as other potential predictive factors. Study Design: Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 2. Methods: A total of 48 elite basketball players (22 male, 26 female; mean ± SD age, 17.9 ± 3.7 years) performed the Ankle-GO score on both limbs during a preseason session. This score is a cluster of functional tests and self-reported questionnaires evaluating ankle function. LAS incidence was recorded throughout the competitive season for each ankle of the players. Potential predictive variables (Ankle-GO, body mass index, history of previous LAS, and sex) associated with LAS were compared between injured and uninjured athletes. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUCs) and multivariable logistic regression models with odds ratio (OR) and 95% CI were used to identify potential factors of LAS. Results: A total of 17 occurrences of LAS occurred during the season. Ankle-GO score was lower among injured ankles (16.9 ± 3.6 points vs 19.6 ± 3.2; P = .004; d = 0.8) and was associated with probability to sustain an LAS (AUC, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.57-0.84; P = .008). Athletes with an Ankle-GO score <19 points and those who suffered an LAS during the previous years were more likely to experience a new LAS on the same ankle (OR, 5.5; 95% CI, 1.6-19.2; P = .007, and OR, 3.5; 95% CI, 1.1-10.9; P = .03, respectively). Conclusion: The Ankle-GO score can help to identify elite basketball players who will suffer LAS during a competitive season
Mapping the brain atrophy mediating increased impatience for reward in frontotemporal dementia
International audienceChoices involving trade-offs between larger later (LL) and smaller sooner (SS) rewards—known as intertemporal preferences—are altered in many psychiatric and neurodegenerative conditions, leading to a preference for immediate rewards. Behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), a neurodegenerative disorder characterised by high impulsivity and atrophies in brain systems relevant for decision-making, provides a neuropathological model to investigate structural networks linked to higher impatience for reward. We studied 22 bvFTD patients and 17 controls, using two intertemporal choice (ITC) tasks involving (1) monetary and (2) food rewards. We compared outcomes of these tasks (discount rate and sensitivity to LL reward amounts) between groups and examined correlations with bvFTD symptoms. We applied whole-brain mediation analysis to participants’ structural MRI data to identify neural mediators of higher impatience for reward in bvFTD. BvFTD patients showed higher discount rates and lower sensitivity to LL reward for both money and food. These ITC outcomes for money (but not food) were related to inhibition deficits and lower executive functions among patients. Reduced grey matter density in the medial pulvinar and parahippocampal cortex mediated bvFTD’s alteration of ITC outcomes. Lesions of these structures involved in emotional salience and projection may constitute neural markers of impatience for reward
The sense of agency in near and far space: where do we stand?
International audienceModern technology frequently places the consequences of our actions at a distance (e.g. remote surgery, smart-home control, virtual reality). Does spatial distance between an action and its outcome weaken the sense of agency (SoA) - the feeling of control over one’s actions and consequences? Two recent studies, by Jenkins and Obhi and Mariano et al., answered “yes,” reporting stronger temporal binding (TB) in near than far space and interpreting this as greater implicit agency. A third study - our own work with a similar paradigm - found no distance effect. Here we (i) provide a rigorous side-by-side methodological comparison of the three studies, (ii) argue why a direct test to establish a distance modulation of TB (the Near - Far difference of the Active - Passive delta) should be performed in order to reach meaningful conclusions, and (iii) report new reanalyses of our data and direct tests on the two target studies. Overall, current evidence does not support a distance effect on SoA. Our reassessment provides alternative explanations that converge with available evidence suggesting that distance may influence temporal interval perception, but that effect is independent of action intention and therefore of agency. Public Significance Statement: In our increasingly connected world, we often interact with devices and influence events that are physically distant from us - like controlling smart appliances remotely or engaging in virtual reality experiences. Does the distance between us and the effects of our actions change how much we feel in control of the outcomes of our actions? Recent studies have suggested that we feel less responsible when action outcomes appear in far space compared to near space. However, methodological limitations in these studies, as well as our own results with a similar paradigm, challenge the validity of this claim. We aim to contribute to the crucial debate on the role of spatial distance on humans’ feeling of responsibility by providing a respectful though critical analysis of recent findings and offering recommendations for future research

Le Journal de l’agriculture, du commerce, des arts et des finances (1765-1783). Histoire et analyse d'une revue économique d'Ancien Régime : tables complètes et documents (Tome II)
International audienceC’est au dix-huitième siècle que se développe en Europe, et plus particulièrement en France, un nouveau type de littérature, l’économie politique. L’essor de cette nouvelle discipline en voie d’autonomisation par rapport aux humanités, au droit ou à la morale, s’est matérialisé par la multiplication des livres consacrés à l’économie, mais aussi par l’apparition de revues spécialisées. Un des plus importants de ces périodiques est le Journal de l’Agriculture, du Commerce et des Finances, mais on ne dispose pas d’études développées sur ce journal – d’autant plus remarquable qu’il dépendait directement du ministère des Finances – et encore moins d’un descriptif. C’est ce qui a motivé les auteurs de cet ouvrage, fédérés autour d’un programme sur la presse économique d’Ancien Régime, à publier ce livre qui a l’originalité de proposer au lecteur dans un même ensemble, composé de deux tomes, une analyse et un descriptif accompagnés de nombreux compléments et annexes construits pour faciliter le travail des chercheurs. Ils trouveront dans cet ouvrage une étude approfondie de l’histoire éditoriale du titre et la table complète de l’ensemble des numéros parus (tome I) [ paru en 2023 ⟨halshs-04112468⟩] puis les professions de foi des éditeurs (avis, avertissements, etc.), l’index (des lieux et des personnes : 4 100 et 6 400 entrées) et les bibliographies des ouvrages cités ou analysés (2 800 références) (tome II
Retours sur le 25e congrès national de la Société Française d’Étude et de Traitement de la Douleur
International audienceABSTRACT Background Pain, whether as a symptom or a chronic disease, is the leading cause of medical consultations but there is no data on whether this is also the case in the practice of physiotherapy. Objective To assess the prevalence of patients with pain consulting a physiotherapist in France. Methods A questionnaire to be completed online was sent to physiotherapists practicing in France, asking them about the presence of pain in the patients they treated in the previous five days. The questionnaire was sent through representative healthcare organisations and professional societies, from January to September 2024. Results A total of 845 questionnaires were completed by physiotherapists, representing 52,497 patient consultations. Overall, 58.7% of patients seen by physiotherapists presented with pain, and pain was the main reason for consultation in 39.5% of patients. Physiotherapists reported a higher proportion of patients with chronic pain than with acute pain. Differences in pain characteristics were observed according to professional practice context: self‐employed physiotherapists more frequently reported pain located in the head or trunk and mixed acute and chronic pain profiles, whereas salaried physiotherapists more often reported acute pain and lower limb pain. Conclusion Pain is the major reason for physiotherapy consultations, and chronic pain is commonly encountered. Differences observed between self‐employed and salaried physiotherapists likely reflect variations in care contexts, referral pathways, and predominant fields of clinical activity. These results should inform health authorities of the role of physiotherapists in pain management and promote the development of standardised undergraduate and postgraduate pain education programs. Significance Statement This is the first nationwide and representative study to assess the prevalence and characteristics of pain among patients consulting physiotherapists. The results demonstrate that pain, particularly chronic pain, is a major reason for physiotherapy consultations in France. The evaluation of current educational programs and the implementation of standardised pain education for physiotherapists should now be undertaken to ensure best practices and ultimately improve patient outcomes
« Inventaire utopiste. Des pratiques d’inventaire aux imaginaires technologiques »
International audienceCet article présente le projet Inventaire utopiste de Marie Lukasiewicz, qui explore le geste d’inventorier à travers une approche transdisciplinaire mêlant photographie, enregistrements sonores et technologies numériques (spectrogrammes, outils de restauration sonore, impression 3D). En détournant les codes de l’esthétique scientifique, le projet questionne les logiques de classification, de hiérarchisation et de mise en ordre du réel, tout en mettant en lumière les dimensions esthétiques, affectives et politiques de l’inventaire dans un contexte de crise écologique. À mi-chemin entre restitution d’entretien, lecture photographiques et réflexions épistémologiques, l’article interroge les régimes de temporalité et les imaginaires spéculatifs que mobilise le geste d’inventaire au sein des disciplines artistiques et scientifiques

Impact of heat exposure during immobilization‐induced de‐training and re‐training on aerobic capacity and haemoglobin mass
International audienceThe aim of this work was to assess the effect of heat exposure on cardiorespiratory and haematological responses during de-training and re-training. Nineteen men (33.8 ± 2.7 years; 182 ± 5.7 cm, 84.4 ± 9.3 kg) completed 4 weeks of pre-training followed by heat exposure (HEAT; n = 9) or control (CON; n = 10). Both groups then detrained for 2 weeks with lower-limb immobilization followed by 2 weeks of re-training.Cardiorespiratory fitness and total haemoglobin mass (Hb mass ) were measured at baseline (BASE), prior to (IMMO pre ) and following (IMMO post ) immobilization and after a 'return-to-sport' (RTS post ) training phase. Compared with IMMO pre , VO 2 at the gas exchange threshold (GET) was reduced (d = -0.53; P < 0.005) at IMMO post , whereas maximal oxygen uptake ( VO 2 max ) did not change significantly (d = 0.14; P = 0.07).The reduction in GET VO 2 was more pronounced for HEAT than CON (d = -0.77; P = 0.001). At IMMO post , GET and peak power output were lower than IMMO pre (d = -1.4, P < 0.005 and d = 0.43, P = 0.01, respectively), however there was no difference between groups. At RTS post , the VO 2 at GET increased again in both groups yet remained lower than IMMO pre although the reduction in HEAT (d = -0.42; P = 0.43) was less than CON (d = -0.8; P = 0.05). At RTS post , HEAT fully recovered GET power losses compared to IMMO post (d = 1.1; P = 0.001), while CON only showed a trivial change (d = 0.07; P = 0.1). No significant changes were observed in Hb mass , haematocrit or plasma volume throughout the study (P ≥ 0.763). Heat exposure did not attenuate a decline in cardiorespiratory fitness during immobilization-induced de-training, but could potentiate its recovery upon re-commencement of training.</p
