Comite

Comite: A committee or group of individuals assembled to perform a specific task or function.
Comites may be formed within organizations, communities, or government bodies to provide guidance, make decisions, or oversee various projects and initiatives.
These groups often comprise experts, stakeholders, or representatives from relevant fields.
The structure and responsibilities of a comite can vary depending on its purpose and the context in which it operates.
Comites play a crucial role in facilitating collaboration, shared decision-making, and the coordination of complex endeavors.

MICs of aminoglycosides (amikacin, gentamicin, tobramycin, apramycin, neomycin, paromomycin, and streptomycin), ciprofloxacin, imipenem, meropenem, piperacillin-tazobactam and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole were determined using broth microdilution following the recommendations of the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) (CLSI, 2017 ). Concentrations of these agents ranged from 0.5 to 256 μg/ml except for trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 was used as the quality control and all tests were performed in triplicate. Breakpoints defined by CLST for amikacin, gentamicin and tobramycin (for amikacin, susceptible [S] ≤16 μg/ml, intermediate [I] 32 μg/ml, resistant [R], ≥64 μg/ml; for gentamicin and tobramycin, S ≤4 μg/ml, I 8 μg/ml, R ≥16 μg/ml), ciprofloxacin, imipenem, meropenem, piperacillin-tazobactam and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (CLSI, 2017 ) was used, while no CLSI- or the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST)-defined breakpoints for the other four agents are available. Breakpoints defined by US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or the National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System were used for streptomycin (S, ≤32 μg/ml; R, ≥64 μg/ml) and apramycin (S, ≤8 μg/ml; I, 16 or 32 μg/ml; R, ≥64 μg/ml) (Smith and Kirby, 2016 (link)), respectively. Those defined by Comite de L'Antibiogramme de la Société Française de Microbiologie (http://www.sfm-microbiologie.org/) were used for neomycin and paromomycin (S, ≤8 μg/ml; R, >16 μg/ml; for both agents).

This study was conducted across the 2016 to 2017 sugarcane harvest in a population of 105 field workers employed by Pantaleon, a sugarcane agribusiness in Guatemala. The sugarcane harvest season runs from November until May each year. A detailed description of the field setting has been described by Butler-Dawson et al.33 (link)In this longitudinal study, we prospectively assessed cross-shift changes in eGFR, biomarkers of renal function, and biomarkers of heat stress in 105 workers at three separate time points during the harvest season. Additionally, we collected clinical, environmental, occupational, and non-occupational data for each worker. Prior to each harvest, field workers undergo a fitness-for-work medical screening and health risk assessment survey. The screening evaluation includes clinical data (age, height, weight, blood pressure, heart rate), demographic information (location of home of residence, occupational history, lifestyle behaviors), and evaluation of eGFR via serum creatinine.
Workers were recruited for employment from local communities in the coastal area near the sugarcane fields (approximate altitude 350 m) as well as from highland communities of Guatemala (approximate altitude 1800 m). Workers were hired if they passed the fitness-for-work screening and had an eGFR greater than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Once hired, workers were assigned to work cohorts of approximately 50 workers each that remained constant for the duration of the season. The University of Colorado Center for Health, Work & Environment (CHWE) and Pantaleon executed a memorandum of understanding in 2016, with the shared goal of assessing and improving the health, safety, and well-being of the workers. Data from the pre-harvest medical screenings were provided to the research team at the CHWE. Ethics review and approval for this study was granted by the Colorado Multiple Institutional Review Board (COMIRB) and in Guatemala by the Comite de Etica, Facultad de Medicina, Universidad Francisco Marroquin-Hospital Universitario Esperanza.

Data come from an existing multi-country project called Performance Monitoring for Action (PMA). PMA conducts annual population-based family planning surveys in several African and Asian countries. PMA uses a multi-stage stratified cluster sampling design with probability proportional to size selection of clusters, which are comprised of approximately 200 households each. Interviewers then map and list all households within selected clusters and randomly sample 35 households per cluster (40 in Lagos, Nigeria). The surveys are conducted regularly in order to track key family planning indicators and sample size determination is based on the sample required to estimate the modern contraceptive rate with a 3 percentage point precision. The sampling design is described in more detail elsewhere [29 ].
In-country partners conducted data collection from April through May 2018 in Nigeria, July through August 2018 in Cote d’Ivoire, and April through June 2018 in Rajasthan. Interviewers residing within or nearby selected clusters conducted surveys in English, Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba, or Pidgin in Nigeria, French in Cote d’Ivoire, and Hindi in Rajasthan. Local dialects were used to improve comprehension when necessary. All females aged 15–49 who were usual residents of or slept the prior night in a selected household were eligible to participate after providing informed consent. In accordance with local ethical approvals, respondents provided verbal informed consent in Nigeria and Cote d’Ivoire and written informed consent in Rajasthan. The Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health provided ethical approval for this study (8308), as did the National Health Research Ethics Committee of Nigeria (NHREC/01/01/2007–02/01/2018C), the Comite National D’ Ethique de la Recherche (CNER) in Cote d’Ivoire (N/Ref: 036–18/MSHP/CNER-kp), and the Indian Institute of Health Management Research (IIHMR) Institutional Review Board for Protection of Human Subjects in Rajasthan (Feb 2018 1).
In the abortion module, interviewers asked women whether they had ever done something to bring back their period at a time when they were worried they were pregnant (i.e. menstrual regulation for the purpose of fertility regulation, which we are simply referring to as menstrual regulation). Researchers’ understanding of this practice and the specific language that captured it emerged during discussions with female data collectors from study areas in Nigeria during the pilot training. The women made a distinction between actions women take when their period is late and they suspect they may be pregnant but have not confirmed it and when a pregnancy is more established or confirmed through a pregnancy test or other pregnancy symptoms. We conducted similar discussions with interviewers and respondents involved in the pilot training in the other study countries and affirmed the importance of asking questions about menstrual regulation in the other contexts as well. We confirmed comprehension and interpretation of this language and the corresponding translations during piloting in each country. The prelude to the abortion module, which included the menstrual regulation questions, framed the content with regards to actions women take when they become pregnant at a time when they cannot or do not want to be pregnant in order to minimize reporting of miscarriage. Interviewers asked about the year of the menstrual regulation, whether the woman did multiple things in the process of regulating her menses, and the method(s) and source(s) used.

This was an observational prospective, single-centre study in Saint Louis hospital, Paris. All intubated patients successively admitted to the ICU were screened for inclusion in the study. The hospital has 650 beds with more than 300 beds for patients with malignancy. More than 700 patients are admitted to the 12-bed ICU per year. Fifty percent of patients receive chemotherapy before or during their ICU stay. One physiotherapist words in this ICU during weekdays (5 days a week).
The study was approved by comite de protection des personnes (ethic commity) West 5 Rennes (number 18/037-3) and comité d’éthique de la (SRLF French intensive care society 17–50). Each patient or relative received information concerning the study and the data recorded. Informed consent was not required according to French law.
All patients over 18 years of age who were admitted to the ICU between 1 May 2018 and 14 July 2019, who received invasive mechanical ventilation for more than 48 h were included. Exclusion criteria were moribund patients (simplified severity index IGS (indice de gravité simplifié) >85) or patients with an end-of-life decision. Other exclusion criteria were permanent contra-indication to physiotherapy (mostly neurological reasons), pregnancy, breastfeeding, patient not covered by medical insurance, or patient refusal.
Briefly, in this ICU, the physiotherapy session level was defined by a doctor and physiotherapist according to the Medical Research Council (MRC) score (14 (link)) and Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (RASS) (15 (link)). The MRC score is associated with muscle weakness (from 0 (no muscle contraction) to 5 (normal strength) points in 12 muscular groups for a total of 60 points). RASS score assessed the consciousness (from –5 unrousable, to 0 alert and calm, and +5 combative). Each day, a medical student assessed the RASS and MRC scores for each patient intubated for more than 48 h. The prescribed level of physiotherapy each day was based on level of consciousness (RASS score) and muscle strength (MRC score) (Table SI). Then, the physiotherapist assessed the level of mobilization obtained during the session. The obtained level was compared with the prescribed level. When mobilization performed reached the prescribed level of physiotherapy, the physiotherapy session was defined as successful. A team including physiotherapist and ICU nurses performed all physiotherapy sessions during working hours, 5 days a week. Contra-indications and reasons not to perform physiotherapy sessions were recorded, when this happened. If patients did not get physiotherapy sessions because of an end-of life decision or non-attendance of the physiotherapist, the physiotherapy-day was excluded from the analysis. The number and type of complications related to early mobilization (tearing off material, haemodynamic or respiratory adverse event, or other) were recorded. Moreover, variables concerning organ failure and diagnosis were recorded for the entire the ICU stay.
The FIM (16 ) and MRC scores (14 (link)) at ICU discharge, length of stay in intensive care or in hospital, and mortality were also recorded for each patient. The FIM is a score to assess and grade the functional status of a person, based on the level of assistance he or she requires (17 ).
Shock status was defined as the need for a vasopressor.
