Approche qualitative et phénoménologique du premier épisode psychotique : vécu traumatique et transformation identitaire, quelques résultats prélimin…
2021
Resume But de l’etude Le premier episode psychotique constitue un evenement brutal pour les patients et s’accompagne d’une desorganisation psychique majeure avec une detresse importante. Plusieurs etudes recentes ont ainsi souligne la dimension traumatique du premier episode psychotique chez une large part des patients, et ont montre la prevalence du trouble de stress post-traumatique au sein de cette population. Toutefois, peu d’etudes ont porte leur attention sur cette dimension traumatique sous l’angle du vecu et de l’experience subjective des sujets confrontes au PEP, en dehors des criteres semiologiques du TSPT. Aussi, l’objectif de cette recherche consiste a investiguer de maniere app…
Le défaut de soutien familial dans l’immédiat post-partum : quels impacts sur l’émergence de la détresse maternelle ?
2018
Resume But de l’etude Cette etude vise a evaluer l’impact du defaut de soutien familial dans l’immediat post-partum sur l’etat psychique maternelle et de son evolution 6 mois apres la naissance de l’enfant. Patients et methode Trente-cinq meres primipares, vivant maritalement, ayant beneficie des services d’hospitalisation a domicile (HAD) via leur maternite. Apres leur inclusion, elles ont ete reparties a posteriori en deux groupes, en fonction de la variable independante : soutien familial, obtenue via une utilisation libre du Social Support Questionnaire (SSQ6) de Sarason (1983 ; 1987), rempli par les participantes. La detresse maternelle a ete evaluee sur 4 temps de mesure (T1–2 semaine…
Varhaiskasvatuspalvelut koronapandemian aikana
2021
Raportissa esitellään varhaiskasvatuksen lähiesihenkilöille syksyllä 2020 toteutetun kyselyn tuloksia varhaiskasvatuspalveluiden tuottamisesta koronaviruspandemian aikana. Normaalioloissa kansallinen lainsäädäntö määrittelee varhaiskasvatustoiminnan reunaehdot. Keväällä 2020 koronaviruspandemian vuoksi voimaan astuneen poikkeustilan aikana kunnat kuitenkin vapautettiin varhaiskasvatuslain mukaisesta varhaiskasvatuksen järjestämisvastuusta, mikäli lapsen vanhempien tai huoltajien oli mahdollista järjestää lapsen hoito muulla tavalla. Tässä tilanteessa kunnissa ja varhaiskasvatusyksiköissä tehtiin erilaisia ratkaisuja varhaiskasvatuksen toteuttamisesta ja tarjoamisesta kotihoitoon siirtyneill…

Adolescent Feeding: Nutritional Risk Factors
2018
AbstractThe aim of this review is to describe adolescent nutritional requirements from a scientific, nutritional, and psychosocial point of view, emphasizing the main risks of malnutrition at this age. Currently, too many teenagers are alone at home and prepare their own meals. The influence of friends replaces parental rules. The habits of adolescents are characterized by a tendency to skip meals, especially breakfast, and, less frequently, the midday meal; to purchase carry-out meals away from home; to consume snacks, especially sweets; to eat at fast food restaurants, almost always with high-calorie content; and to eat fried foods, soft drinks, and sweets. Toxic habits, such as smoking, …
Impact of Green Vegetables and Green Smoothies on Enamel Mineral Composition In Vitro
2019
Background: Recently, smoothies with a high vegetable content have become very popular, especially among young adults. Objectives: This in vitro study was conducted to determine the erosive potential of selected green vegetables and green smoothies on human dental enamel. Methods: A total of ten green smoothies and eight freshly mixed vegetables were chosen, and pH, calcium and oxalic acid contents were measured. The enamel specimens were obtained from wisdom teeth and incubated with 3 selected foods (spinach, parsley, or green smoothie) for 12 and 24 hours (N = 6). Control samples were incubated with a physiological salt solution. An electron probe microanalyzer (Jeol JXA 8900RL) was utili…
Cognate HLA absence in trans diminishes human NK cell education
2016
NK cells are innate lymphocytes with protective functions against viral infections and tumor formation. Human NK cells carry inhibitory killer cell Ig-like receptors (KIRs), which recognize distinct HLAs. NK cells with KIRs for self-HLA molecules acquire superior cytotoxicity against HLA– tumor cells during education for improved missing-self recognition. Here, we reconstituted mice with human hematopoietic cells from donors with homozygous KIR ligands or with a mix of hematopoietic cells from these homozygous donors, allowing assessment of the resulting KIR repertoire and NK cell education. We found that co-reconstitution with 2 KIR ligand–mismatched compartments did not alter the frequenc…
Positive Controls in Adults and Children Support That Very Few, If Any, New Neurons Are Born in the Adult Human Hippocampus.
2020
Adult hippocampal neurogenesis was originally discovered in rodents. Subsequent studies identified the adult neural stem cells and found important links between adult neurogenesis and plasticity, behavior, and disease. However, whether new neurons are produced in the human dentate gyrus (DG) during healthy aging is still debated. We and others readily observe proliferating neural progenitors in the infant hippocampus near immature cells expressing doublecortin (DCX), but the number of such cells decreases in children and few, if any, are present in adults. Recent investigations using dual antigen retrieval find many cells stained by DCX antibodies in adult human DG. This has been interprete…
Cholesterol Content in Human Milk during Lactation: A Comparative Study of Enzymatic and Chromatographic Methods.
2018
This study validates a gas chromatography (GC) method for determining the sterol profile of human milk (HM) and compares it with an enzymatic-spectrophotometric (E-S) method. Good linearity ( r > 0.97) and low limits of detection and quantification were obtained with the GC method (<1.8 and <6 μg/100 g of HM, respectively). Suitable intra- and interassay precisions (all <18%) and satisfactory recovery percentages (80-109%) were obtained for both methods. In addition, both methodologies were used to assess cholesterol evolution in HM during lactation, showing a 50% decrease at 6 months versus colostrum. The E-S method overestimated cholesterol content by <20% versus the GC method. The result…
