Effects of atypical antipsychotics on neurocognition in euthymic bipolar patients.
2011
Abstract Background Different factors may influence cognitive functioning in bipolar disorder such as the effect of subsyndromal symptoms, the history of psychotic symptomatology or substance abuse, negative symptomatology, chronicity, sleep disturbances, and hormonal factors. The effect of pharmacologic treatment on cognition is still uncertain because of an insufficient number of studies examining this issue. Objective The aims of this study were to compare neuropsychologic performance of treated bipolar patients with that of controls, including unmedicated patients and healthy subjects, as well as to evaluate possible neurocognitive differences among 3 different atypical antipsychotics. …
Psychopharmacological treatment of bipolar disorder in Latin American
2011
Abstract Objective This study assessed the treatment preferences among Latin American psychiatrists for their bipolar disorder patients and if these preferences reflect the current guidelines. Methods We designed a survey comprised of 14 questions. All the questions were aimed at the treatment of bipolar I patients only. We distributed the survey by hand or e-mail to psychiatrists in eight different countries: Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru and Venezuela. Between May 2008 and June 2009, we were able to gather 1143 surveys. Results As the initial choice of treatment for a bipolar patient who debuts with mania, 61.3% choose a combination of an atypical antipsyc…

Behavioural sensitization to repeated sleep deprivation in a mice model of mania.
2008
Sensitization to the effect of stress has been hypothesized as a mechanism to explain episode recurrence and cycle acceleration in bipolar disorder. Naturalistic observations and experimental work in human patients suggested that sleep deprivation can trigger manic episodes of illness. In rats sleep deprivation (SD) with the platform method caused mania-like behaviours thus providing an animal model of mania with face, construct, and predictive validity. In the present study we administered SD or control stress to male CD1 mice following a dose-response protocol based on time of exposure to the experimental conditions (6, 12 or 24 h) and repetition of treatment (three times). SD, but not st…
Lexical Creativity – A Salient Phenomenon in Current Romanian TV and Online Journalism
2020
Abstract The article aims to examine an aspect pertaining to lexical neology, i.e. the lexical creativity as reflected in recent TV and online journalism. Lexical creativity articulates interdisciplinarity, the latter represents a ‛bridge‛ between the facts of language and those of style. Newly words are created by journalists to serve different purposes ranging from ludic, spontaneous, occasional to deliberate, conscious. Lexical creativity is influenced by different factors such as: analogy, imitation, calque, subjectivity, sensitiveness, context, etc. The language of the media is characterized by dynamics, novelty and accessibility. Through their novelty, words contribute to an enrichmen…

Early Aptian corals from Peñascal (Bilbao, N Spain)
2020
From two horizons in the lower Aptian Peñascal limestone Formation south of Bilbao 22 coral species are reported. The corals belong to the scleractinian families Actinastraeidae, Eugyridae, Haplaraeidae, Latomeandridae, and Solenocoeniidae, and the octocorallian family Helioporidae. The stratigraphic distribution of the species lies between the Berriasian to Cenomanian, but most species have a distribution between the Barremian and Albian. The faunas show most palaeobiogeographical relationship to faunas from the Hauterivian to Albian of the European Boreal, the Western Atlantic and the Western Tethys.
Late Cretaceous palaeoenvironments expressed by the clay mineralogy of Cenomanian–Campanian chalks from the east of the Paris Basin
2005
Abstract The clay fraction of Cenomanian–Campanian chalks cored at Poigny and Sainte-Colombe, close to Provins (east-south-east of Paris), includes variable proportions of smectitic minerals, illite and kaolinite. The smectitic sediments (which constitute the background of low-terrigenous supply throughout the stratigraphic interval) resulted mainly from the warm, humid climate and high sea level that prevailed during Late Cretaceous in this area. During the Late Turonian, the smectitic sedimentation was interrupted by significant detrital inputs of illite and kaolinite. This reflected tectonic rejuvenation of landmasses coeval with an explosive volcanism expressed by the occurrence of bent…
