Claude Sicotte, Jonathan Lapointe, Sébastien Clavel, Marie-Andrée Fortin

Practical Radiation Oncology > 2016 > 6 > 1 > 26-33

We analyzed the intermediate and longer term changes in patients’ waiting times following the implementation of an electronic medical record (EMR) dedicated to ambulatory treatment in both medical and radiation oncology.A pre-post study design was developed to assess improvements in patients’ waiting times, defined as the number of days between key steps in patient management preceding the first treatment...

Xerostomia in patients treated for oropharyngeal carcinoma: Comparing linear accelerator–based intensity‐modulated radiation therapy with helical tomotherapy

Israël Fortin, Bernard Fortin, Louise Lambert, Sébastien Clavel, more

Head & Neck > 36 > 9 > 1343 - 1348

BackgroundIn comparison to sliding‐window intensity‐modulated radiation therapy (sw‐IMRT), we hypothesized that helical tomotherapy (HT) would achieve similar locoregional control and, at the same time, decrease the parotid gland dose, thus leading to a xerostomia reduction. MethodsThe association between radiation techniques, mean parotid dose, and xerostomia incidence, was reviewed in 119 patients...

Associated factors with adherence to antiepileptic drug in the capital city of Lao PDR

Aina Harimanana, Sebastien Clavel, Phetvongsinh Chivorakul, Freddy Perez, more

Epilepsy Research > 2013 > 104 > 1-2 > 158-166

Available medical care for epilepsy and antiepileptic drugs (AED) are provided in Vientiane Municipality by district hospitals supported by a non-governmental organization, which is referred to as a community-based intervention (CB), and reference hospital which is referred to as hospital-based interventions (HB). Identifying underlying factors of AED adherence is of public health interest.A community-based...

The Role of Computed Tomography in the Management of the Neck After Chemoradiotherapy in Patients With Head-and-Neck Cancer

Sébastien Clavel, Marie-Pierre Charron, Manon Bélair, Guila Delouya, more

International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology, Physics > 2012 > 82 > 2 > 567-573

The aim of this study was to describe the outcome in patients with head-and neck-squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) followed up without neck dissection (ND) after concomitant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) based on computed tomography (CT) response. The second objective was to establish CT characteristics that can predict which patients can safely avoid ND.Between 1998 and 2007, 369 patients with node-positive...

Simultaneous Integrated Boost Using Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy Compared With Conventional Radiotherapy in Patients Treated With Concurrent Carboplatin and 5-Fluorouracil for Locally Advanced Oropharyngeal Carcinoma

Sébastien Clavel, David H.A. Nguyen, Bernard Fortin, Philippe Després, more

International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology, Physics > 2012 > 82 > 2 > 582-589

To compare, in a retrospective study, the toxicity and efficacy of simultaneous integrated boost using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) vs. conventional radiotherapy (CRT) in patients treated with concomitant carboplatin and 5-fluorouracil for locally advanced oropharyngeal cancer.Between January 2000 and December 2007, 249 patients were treated with definitive chemoradiation. One hundred patients...

Enteral Feeding During Chemoradiotherapy for Advanced Head-and-Neck Cancer: A Single-Institution Experience Using a Reactive Approach

Sébastien Clavel, Bernard Fortin, Philippe Després, David Donath, more

International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology, Physics > 2011 > 79 > 3 > 763-769

The optimal method for providing enteral nutrition to patients with head-and-neck cancer is unclear. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of our reactive policy, which consists of the installation of a nasogastric (NG) feeding tube only when required by the patient's nutritional status.The records of all patients with Stage III and IV head-and-neck cancer treated...

Concurrent Chemoradiation With Carboplatin–5-Fluorouracil Versus Cisplatin in Locally Advanced Oropharyngeal Cancers: Is More Always Better?

Maroie Barkati, Bernard Fortin, Denis Soulières, Sébastien Clavel, more

International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology, Physics > 2010 > 76 > 2 > 410-416

The optimal chemotherapy regimen remains undefined in the treatment of locally advanced oropharyngeal cancer by concomitant chemoradiation. This article compares two platinum-based chemotherapy regimens.In this retrospective study, we reviewed all consecutive patients treated for Stage III or IVA–B oropharyngeal cancer using either a combination of carboplatin and 5-fluorouracil (5FU) every 3 weeks...

Induction of Ucp2 expression in brain phagocytes and neurons following murine toxoplasmosis: An essential role of IFN-γ and an association with negative energy balance

Denis Arsenijevic, Sébastien Clavel, Daniel Sanchis, Julie Plamondon, more

Journal of Neuroimmunology > 2007 > 186 > 1-2 > 121-132

A model of murine toxoplasmosis was used to study cellular and temporal expression of uncoupling protein-2 (Ucp2) in the brain. In situ hybridization indicated that Ucp2 was located in neurons. Nuclei structures involved in energy balance, in particular the nucleus of the solitary tract (NST), was shown to have a positive association between negative energy balance and Ucp2 levels. Infection-induced...
