Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification analysis of Copy Number Variants in mentally retarded patients

2011

The aetiology of mental retardation and dysmorphism is still poorly understood in over half of the affected individuals. Recent studies have shown that genomic mutations such as Copy Number Variants (CNV) can be important factors predisposing to the highly heterogeneous clinical conditions observed in affected individuals. Genome−wide array−Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH) is the best technology available so far for a first screening of CNVs in genomic DNA in patients and control individuals. However, CNVs detected by aCGH need validation by an independent method such as Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification (MLPA). In this report we present the results of a MLPA analysis…

Motor imagery in unipolar major depression.

2014

Background: Motor imagery is a potential tool to investigate action representation, as it can provide insights into the processes of action planning and preparation. Recent studies suggest that depressed patients present specific impairment in mental rotation. The present study was designed to investigate the influence of unipolar depression on motor imagery ability. Methods: Fourteen right-handed patients meeting DSM-IV criteria for unipolar depression were compared to 14 matched healthy controls. Imagery ability was accessed by the timing correspondence between executed and imagined movements during a pointing task, involving strong spatiotemporal constraints (speed/accuracy trade-off par…

Samhandling om tjenester til personer med utviklingshemming og samtidig psykiske lidelser/ plager: Hvilke erfaringer har deres foreldre?

2016

Masteroppgave psykisk helsearbeid - Universitetet i Agder 2016 National as well as international research shows that people with mental retardation are more prone to develop mental ailments and behavioral problems then the general population. Still, little subject material illuminates the collaboration of services provided to this group of people. The purpose of this study is to explore how the parents of people with mental retardation and simultaneous mental illnesses/ ailments perceive the collaboration of services provided to their offspring: What are their experiences on collaboration between the different service providers? How do they view collaboration between themselves/ their offsp…

Recherche de la forme d'un modèle à retards échelonnés : application à la fonction d'investissement

1980

L'étude des modèles à retards échelonnés a toujours été au centre des préoccupations aussi bien de l ' économiste que de l'économètre. Pour l 'économiste, le modèle à retards échelonnés permet de traduire le fait que l'influence d'une vardiable économique sur une autre est généralement étalée sur plusieurs périodes tout en étant peut être décalée dans le temps. C'est sur cette idée que s'appuie, en matière d'investissement, la théorie des accélérateurs flexibles d développée par les partisans du principe d'accélération principe dont la version originale est due à J .
