La tecnica delle storie disegnate

2015

La valutazione psicodiagnostica nell’età dello sviluppo è assai complessa e problematica. E ciò per via dell’oggetto di osservazione – il bambino e l’adolescente – che presenta specifiche caratteristiche rispetto all’adulto. Occorre, innanzitutto, evidenziare l’importanza del concetto di processo di sviluppo per la comprensione dei bambini e degli adolescenti, scartando metodologie derivate dal lavoro con gli adulti e privilegiando, piuttosto, valutazioni che tengono conto della psiche infantile in continuo divenire, dei processi di cambiamento e della dimensione prognostica insita nell’atto diagnostico. Quando si parla di bambini e adolescenti viene, in sostanza, scardinato il vecchio conc…

Evaluation of alveolar cortical bone thickness and density for orthodontic mini-implant placement.

2013

Objective: Mini-implant stability is primarily related to bone quality and quantity. This study evaluated alveolar cortical bone thickness and density differences between interradicular sites at different levels from the alveolar crest, and assessed the differences between adolescents (12-18 years of age) and adults (19-50 years of age), males and females, upper and lower arch, anterior and posterior region of jaws and buccal and oral side. Study Design: In this retrospective study, 48 Computed Tomography scans, performed for oral surgery purposes were selected from dental records of 3,223 Caucasian orthodontic patients. The SimPlant software (Materialise, Leuven, Belgium) was used to measu…

ACCEM observation strategy.

2006

International audience; ACCEM is an NGO that works in favour of refugees and immigrants in Spain. Since 1996, ACCEM has developed a strategy of observation that articulates national observation and local observatories. The objective of the local observatories is to improve the services which are offered to the migrants, thanks to a better knowledge of their needs and to the use of tools of territorial intelligence, CATALYSE and the trees of knowledge. Since 1996, the Gorion national observatory has gathered in Madrid the individual data of migrants from the regional centres and from the different programmes that were carried out by ACCEM. It provides a wider knowledge of the migrants and of…

Le territoire comme un outil de transdisciplinarité vers des diagnostics partagés

2014

Nowadays, Social Workers (TS) have to realize territorial diagnoses. However, the concept of territory, with its multiple dimensions, does not offer them the possibility of realizing good works. Particulary, they do not have a global look on the reality of their practices and their supports. It is therefore a question of leaning on a definition which allows to include all the dimensions of the territory. The objective is to formulate a way of thinking the territory so that social workers identify all the constraints and amenities in relation to individual situations or projects. It involves adopting an interdisciplinary positioning to reveal the complexity of the reality which determinates …

La question derecherche du sujet de thèse porte sur l’étude de l’effet des modes d’usage et des pratiquesassociées sur les communautés microbiennes telluriques et les services qu’elles fournissent.Des objectifs fondam…

Modéliser l'ancrage territorial de l'agriculture : application à l'étude de la durabilité d'une agriculture côtière sous pression touristique

2011

The territorial base of agriculture is a key to understand the sustainability of this activity, in hybrid territories like peri-urban areas or rural touristic ones. To this aim, the French method of the "agrarian systems" is improved by the concept of "territorial agrarian system": the territory is then a meta-system of the agrarian system that leads to understand the linkage between the individual trajectories of farmers and the global and collective expectations of the territorial stakeholders. This conceptual, methodological and practical approach is applied to the rural touristic area of Balagne, a seaside territory located at the Northwest Corsica. There, as a subject torn between land…

Decompressive Craniectomy Improves QTc Interval in Traumatic Brain Injury Patients

2020

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is commonly associated with cardiac dysfunction, which may be reflected by abnormal electrocardiograms (ECG) and/or contractility. TBI-related cardiac disorders depend on the type of cerebral injury, the region of brain damage and the severity of the intracranial hypertension. Decompressive craniectomy (DC) is commonly used to reduce intra-cranial hypertension (ICH). Although DC decreases ICH rapidly, its effect on ECG has not been systematically studied. The aim of this study was to analyze the changes in ECG in patients undergoing DC. Methods: Adult patients without previously known cardiac diseases treated for isolated TBI with DC were studied. EC…

Intravenous iron therapy in patients with heart failure. A double-edged sword

2013

We read with interest the article of Beck-da-Silva et al., who recently concluded that intravenous (IV) iron seems to be superior over oral supplementation for improving functional capacity of heart failure patients [1]. Irrespective of the study design, involving comparison of functional outcomes between two different means of iron supplementation, we raise some clinical issues about the rationale underlying this investigation. According to the data published by Beck-da-Silva et al., the modest number of patients (n = 23) enrolled in this multicenter investigation had moderate anemia (i.e., hemoglobin concentration comprised between 90 and 120 g/L) but no evidence of iron deficiency, which…
