Las formas cotidianas de la felicidad y sus mandatos: Pedagogías del pensamiento positivo, trabajo docente y subjetividad en el neoliberalismo contem…

2020

Positive thinking constitutes one of the great traditions that lead to the idea of the subject as an entrepreneur of himself and is perhaps one of the best that has successfully condensed cultural, political, social and pedagogical processes linked to reflection on well-being in this historical time. The teaching work is especially moved by the pregnancy of these perspectives that challenge the pedagogical field and the education workers as ?agents of change, or at least one more school available to give the discussion on well-being and happiness (yours and the students?) is celebrated and encouraged. In this article, I intend to understand what is being built as pedagogical discourses abou…

Expression of p63, p53 and ki-67 in patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia

2017

Objective: Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) is a dysplastic process in cervical squamous epithelium and carries a risk of progression to cervical cancer. The aim of this study was to compare expression of three biomarkers named p53, p63 and Ki-67 in patients with various grades of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and in a control group. Material and Method: 58 patients were enrolled in the study. Each patient underwent a colposcopy-guided biopsy of the cervix. Immunostaining for markers (p53, p63 and Ki-67) was performed on tissue samples of normal cases (n=10), CIN I (n=20), CIN II (n=14), and CIN III (n=14). Results: Our study showed a significant increase of the expression of t…

Future anxiety as a predictor of the fear of childbirth

2017

Lęk przed porodem jest zjawiskiem emocjonalnym, którego łagodnych objawów doświadcza większość kobiet, niezależnie od stanu i etapu ciąży. Lęk przed porodem jest zmienną według większości badań oddziałującą na decyzje prokreacyjne, przebieg ciąży i porodu. Lęk przed porodem jako zmienna silnie wpływa na deklarowanie chęci cesarskiego cięcia. Przebadano grupę (N = 350) polskich kobiet, które były zapraszane do badań poprzez przychodnie ginekologiczne. Kobiety wypełniały ankietę mierzącą następujące konstrukty: lęk przed porodem (Putyński, 1997), lęk przed przyszłością (Zaleski, 1996), orientację temporalną (Zimbardo i Boyd, 1999) oraz metryczkę mierzącą zmienne położnicze i demograficzne.

A web-based positive psychology intervention to promote well-being in pregnant women

2017

Introducción El embarazo es una época de cambios, un periodo de la vida que representa el inicio de un nuevo rol para las mujeres de todas las edades. Existe un amplio consenso sobre el papel del estado psicológico materno en la influencia que ejerce sobre el desarrollo del feto, el curso del embarazo y la salud física y psicológica, tanto de la madre como del bebé. La naturaleza, incidencia y las consecuencias perjudiciales del bajo bienestar psicológico materno durante el embarazo han sido ampliamente examinadas y documentadas (e.g., Agius, Xuereb, Carrick-Sen, Sultana y Rankin. 2016; Staneva, Bogossian y Wittkowski, 2015). Un pobre bienestar materno se caracteriza típicamente por bajos n…

Follow-up post natale in nati da madre con infezione certa da Toxoplasma gondii considerazioni sul management prenatale.

2005

The clinical management of perinatal toxoplasmosis involves a gynaecologist during pregnancy and a neonatologist after delivery. Then, in the absence of a uniform approach, early evaluation of infected infants requires a thorough long-term follow-up also in asymptomatic children, who have to be observed for at least one year due to unpredictable sequelae in later life. We retrospectively analyzed pregnancy management of 54 women with certain infection from Toxoplasma gondii (TG) and prospectively enrolled their infants to compare prenatal management with postnatal clinical outcome. All mothers with seroconversion for TG infection were from the Palermo area and were retrospectively analyzed,…

I luoghi della nascita: una ricerca-intervento sui fattori di rischio nelle madri migranti

2010

Pregnancy involves physical changes but also relational and affective ones. During the nine months’ period and in the months following the birth, women develop a series of expectations and fantasies about themselves and their child. The way women live their motherhood expresses, in addition, the cultural values, the myths, the rules society has transmitted to them. Then, birth can be considered as a cultural event with distinctive features. Moving from these considerations, we wondered how immigrant women live their experience of motherhood in a foreign country. We examined the way women reconstruct the history of their pregnancy in relation to their own maternal identity, the identity of t…

Prenatal exposure to diazepam and alprazolam, but not to zolpidem, affects behavioural stress reactivity in handling-naïve and handling-habituated ad…

2002

A gentle long-lasting handling produces persistent neurochemical and behavioural changes and attenuates the impairment in the behavioural reactivity to novelty induced by the prenatal exposure to diazepam (DZ) in adult male rat progeny. This study investigated the consequences of a late prenatal treatment with three GABA/BDZ R agonists (DZ) alprazolam (ALP) and zolpidem (ZOLP)), on different stress-related behavioural patterns, in non-handled (NH), short-lasting handled (SLH) and long-lasting handled (LLH) adult male rats exposed to forced swim test (FST), acoustic startle reflex (ASR) and Vogel test (VT). The effects on motor activity were evaluated in the open field and in the Skinner box…

Adrb3 adrenergic receptor is a key regulator of human myometrial apoptosis and inflammation during chorioamnionitis1

2008

The pathophysiology underlying preterm labor triggered by inflammatory conditions such as chorioamnionitis remains largely unclear. It has already been suggested that beta-3 adrenergic (ADRB3) agonists might be of interest in the pharmacological management of preterm labor. Although there is evidence implicating ADRB receptors in the control of inflammation, there are minimal data relating specifically to ADRB3. To explore the cellular consequences of chorioamnionitis and detect apoptosis, we first performed immunostaining and Western blot experiments on human myometrial samples obtained from women with confirmed chorioamnionitis. We then developed an in vitro model of chorioamnionitis by i…

Motherhood‐induced gene expression in the mouse medial amygdala: Changes induced by pregnancy and lactation but not by pup stimuli

2021

During lactation, adult female mice display aggressive responses toward male intrud-ers, triggered by male- derived chemosensory signals. This aggressive behavior is not shown by pup- sensitized virgin females sharing pup care with dams. The genetic mechanisms underlying the switch from attraction to aggression are unknown. In this work, we investigate the differential gene expression in lactating females ex-pressing maternal aggression compared to pup- sensitized virgin females in the me-dial amygdala (Me), a key neural structure integrating chemosensory and hormonal information. The results showed 197 genes upregulated in dams, including genes encoding hormones such as prolactin, growth h…
