Ethics approval and consent to participate
: The REIN registry was approved by the relevant French committees, the Comité consultatif sur le traitement de l’information en matière de recherché (CCTIRS N°03–149) and the Commission nationale de l’informatique et des libertés (CNIL N° 903188). For population-based registries requiring exhaustiveness, French regulations require that patients be informed by the clinic that they can choose not to participate (opt-out). Patients’ information have been anonymized and de-identified before the extraction for analysis. Access to the databases used in the present study was obtained from the REIN scientific committee and the CCTIRS (N°15–1046) and CNIL (N° 916072). No consent to participate was required due to the retrospective nature of this study.
