Childhood Victimization by Adults and Peers and Health-Risk Behaviors in Adulthood
2019
AbstractVictimization experienced in childhood has been linked with health-risk behaviors (HRBs) in adulthood. The purpose of this cross-sectional survey was to provide data regarding the HRBs using the ISPCAN Child Abuse Screening Tool Retrospective version (ICAST-R), Spanish version. This aimed to broaden existing knowledge by assessing both being victimized by adults and by peers in a Spanish general population of 348, aged 18–35. Age and timing of the reported victimization were also considered. Victimization: physical, psychological, sexual abuse by adults and/or peers showed a prevalence of 44.54%. Of these, 41.29% reported abuse by both. Children victimized by adults, regardless of t…
Cross-sectional human study of soft tissue chin (STC) thickness in adult patients in relation to sex, facial pattern and skeletal class
2017
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to study the relations between the soft tissue chin (STC) and sex, skeletal class, and facial pattern; and to describe the shape and behavior of the STC. Methods 385 non-growing patients were selected, 206 women and 179 men, with a mean age of 28.8 years (SD 4.2). Patients were divided into groups by skeletal class (class I, II or III) and facial pattern (brachyfacial, mesofacial or dolichofacial). STC thicknesses were measured at pogonion (Pg), soft pogonion (Pg′), gnathion (Gn), soft gnathion (Gn′), menton (Me) and soft menton (Me′) in the CBCTs. Results Sexual dimorphism was observed at Pg-Pg′ and Me-Me′. STC thickness was not related to skeleta…

Parietal versus temporal lobe components in spatial cognition: Setting the mid-point of a horizontal line
2009
Recent anatomo-clinical correlation studies have extended to the superior temporal gyrus, the right hemisphere lesion sites associated with the left unilateral spatial neglect, in addition to the traditional posterior-inferior-parietal localization of the responsible lesion (supramarginal gyrus, at the temporo-parietal junction). The study aimed at teasing apart, by means of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), the contribution of the inferior parietal lobule (angular gyrus versus supramarginal gyrus) and of the superior temporal gyrus of the right hemisphere, in making judgments about the mid-point of a horizontal line, a widely used task for detecting and investigating spa…
Identification of resources and skills developed by partners of patients with advanced colon cancer: a qualitative study
2018
National audience; Les aidants familiaux jouent un rôle central auprès des patients présentant un cancer de stade avancé. Parmi les proches susceptibles d’apporter une aide aux personnes malades, les conjoints, en raison des liens qui les unissent et parce qu’ils partagent leur vie quotidienne, sont sans doute les plus confrontés à la maladie. Ils sont également majoritairement désignés comme étant l’aidant principal. L’irruption de la maladie et le besoin d’accompagnement qu’elle nécessite, viennent bouleverser en profondeur les différents équilibres structurant leur quotidien et leur organisation. Ils viennent aussi questionner la nature des relations qu’ils entretiennent, dans une divers…
Types of Triggers in Migraine - Factor Structure of the Headache Triggers Sensitivity and Avoidance Questionnaire and Development of a New Short Form…
2020
OBJECTIVE: To examine the factor structure of the Headache Triggers Sensitivity and Avoidance Questionnaire (HTSAQ) and its German version (HTSAQ-G), in order to identify potential different types of triggers. Furthermore, a short form of the questionnaire was developed. BACKGROUND: The HTSAQ includes 24 of the most commonly reported headache triggers (eg, stress, odors, lack of sleep). Both the HTSAQ and HTSAQ-G appeared to be reliable and valid measures of sensitivity to and avoidance of headache triggers. METHODS: In a cross-country collaboration, data from 2 cross-sectional studies including N = 391 individuals diagnosed with migraine from Australia (n = 222) and Germany (n = 169) were …

Illness perception and affective symptoms in gastrointestinal cancer patients: A moderated mediation analysis of meaning in life and coping.
2019
Objective The character of the mediational relations between illness perception and affective symptoms often depends on the coping strategies used by patients. For example, these relationships may be moderated by meaning in life that plays a buffering role against the negative consequences of cancer. This study examined moderated mediation effects of meaning in life and coping on the relationship between illness perception and affective symptoms in cancer patients. Methods In this cross-sectional research, 317 gastrointestinal cancer patients who were undergoing chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or combined therapy treatments were examined. They completed measures of illness perception, affective…
