Las estrategias motivacionales, la alianza de trabajo y la conducta proterapéutica en los programas de intervención con maltratadores: un ensayo clín…
2020
ABSTRACT Motivational strategies are among the most promising approaches to improve the effectiveness of batterer intervention programs (BIPs). An individualized motivational plan (IMP) is one of these motivational strategies. The present study aimed to explore whether adding an IMP to a standard BIP improved the participant-facilitator working alliance and participants' protherapeutic behaviors. To this end a randomized controlled trial was conducted. One hundred fifty-three men convicted of intimate partner violence were randomly assigned to either a standard BIP (control condition, n = 79) or a standard BIP plus IMP (experimental condition, n = 74). Working alliance (i.e., general workin…
Evaluación de un programa psicoterapéutico para cuidadores de pacientes con TCA: Estudio piloto
2013
El estudio tuvo como objetivo comparar el nivel de discapacidad funcional, dolor y agotamiento, el autoconcepto-autoestima, y grandes dimensiones de personalidad, en personas con y sin fibromialgia (FM). El estudio se realizó con 190 participantes, 140 afectados de FM y 50 no afectados, entre 28 y 75 años (M= 52,16; DT= 9,18), 10 varones y 180 mujeres. Se utilizaron 4 instrumentos de evaluación para medir las variables objeto de estudio: impacto de la fibromialgia, autoconcepto, autoestima y personalidad. Los resultados evidenciaron que las personas con FM, comparadas con las que no están afectadas por esta enfermedad, tienen significativamente un nivel superior de discapacidad funcional, d…
Efficacy of Cognitive-Behavioral therapy in the treatment of children with adhd, with and without aggressiveness
2000
The objectives of this study were twofold: to show the efficacy of a cognitive-behavioral self-control therapy on children with ADHD and to determine whether the combination of training in self-control with training in anger management has better outcomes on two subgroups of hyperactive children, aggressive and nonaggressive. Thirty-two children with ADHD, 16 aggressive and 16 nonaggressive, participated in the research. We applied a cognitive-behavioral self-control training, which included self-instructional training via modeling and behavioral contingencies, to 16 of the 32 hyperactive children. The other 16 hyperactive children were taught the same program, but combined with anger manag…
Reporting, Reflecting and Recognising Emotions in Therapeutic Work with Domestic Violence Perpetrators : Experiences of the Jyväskylä Group Model
2020
Emotions are central in therapeutic work, but interventions for violence vary in how they address emotions. While emotional work with perpetrators is often associated with ‘anger management’ and behavioural elements, a more comprehensive view of emotions might be beneficial in efforts to stop and prevent violent behaviour. Perpetrators’ self-regulation can be promoted by recognising and addressing primary feelings (vulnerability, fear, jealousy, etc.) that may manifest as anger and aggressive behaviour. However, this kind of therapeutic work with perpetrators of violence is also challenging for professionals. For example, when working towards ending violence, it is crucial to differentiate …
L'ansia come fattore di rischio: un'indagine preliminare in cardiologia interventistica e cardiochirurgia
2008
Numerose ricerche sottolineano l'importanza dei fattori psicosociali individuali e ambientali, nello sviluppo dei disturbi cardiovascolari. Individuare quali sono i fattori psicologici che influenzano il modo in cui gli individui reagiscono ed affrontano l'esperienza di malattia serve a stabilire le azioni chiave per favorire il processo di guarigione. Rispetto all'estesa letteratura sulla depressione sono ancora poche le ricerche che affrontano il problema dell'ansia e dei suoi effetti sui pazienti cardiovascolari. Nella nostra ricerca vengono riportati i dati relativi a 61 soggetti (42 maschi e 19 femmine) di età media 58 ± 10 anni che devono essere sottoposti ad interventi cardiochirurgi…
Overexpression of genes involved in lymphocyte activation and regulation are associated with reduced CRM-derived cardiac remodelling after STEMI
2021
Abstract Aims Lymphopenia after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) correlates with deleterious cardiac consequences and worse prognosis. An in-depth examination of genes implicated in lymphocyte proliferation, activation and regulation and their association with short- and long-term cardiac structure and function is therefore of great interest. Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from 10 control subjects and 64 patients with a first STEMI treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention and submitted to cardiac magnetic resonance after 1 week and 6 months. mRNA expression of genes implicated in lymphocyte activation (CD25 and CD69) and regulation …
Free Action and Interventionist Theory of Causality
2019
Intendo discutere il rapporto tra la teoria interventista della causalità e l’azione libera. Gli approcci interventisti alla causalità definiscono la causazione sulla base dell’“intervento”. Queste teorie possono essere riduttive, se spiegano le cause in base all’intervento umano come libero intervento umano, oppure non-riduttive, se considerano cause e interventi come due concetti inter-definiti, dove gli interventi sono considerati come esplicitamente non umani. Intendo mostrare che il dilemma tra teorie interventista della causalità di tipo riduttivo e non-riduttivo può essere superato in favore degli approcci riduttivi, con riferimento a ciò che la causazione è in senso antropologico e …

Treatment of isolated ascending aortic aneurysm by off-pump epiaortic wrapping is safe and durable.
2016
OBJECTIVES: Isolated ascending aortic aneurysm (iAA) is usually treated by open graft repair requiring sternotomy, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and cardioplegia. This approach carries significant mortality in older patients or those presenting with comorbidities. We report an original series of patients presenting with iAA and treated with epiaortic wrapping by using a synthetic mesh. This less invasive aortic repair technique allows reducing the aortic diameter to a predefined value and is performed without CPB. METHODS: Data from patients presenting with an iAA and treated with the wrapping technique (WT) by polypropylene/polyester mesh from November 2006 to July 2015 were collected. The …
TAVI imaging: over the echocardiography
2020
Aortic valve stenosis (AS) is a common valvular heart disease. Recently, transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has changed the treatment of severe AS in elderly patients with contraindications to traditional surgical replacement. Echocardiography is conventionally used as the first imaging modality to assess the presence and severity of AS and to provide anatomical and functional information. Nowadays, imaging techniques play a crucial role in the planning of TAVI to define suitable candidates. Computed tomography (CT) is essential to display the anatomy of the aortic valve complex (including aortic annulus, Valsalva sinuses, coronary arteries ostia, sinotubular junction), thoracoa…
