Abstract:
IntroductionAlthough patients with myocardial infarction (MI) history exhibit individual differences, several psychological problems can be observed in these patients. The present study aimed to investigate the correlation between defence mechanisms and other clinical and sociodemographic data in the early period in patients with MI history.Material and methodsSixty patients diagnosed with MI and hospitalized in the cardiology department were included in the study. The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and Defence Styles Questionnaire (DSQ) were applied.ResultsIt was determined that the mean BDI score of the participants was 15.9 ±11.2, and the mean BAI score was 15.98 ±10.9. There was a positive correlation between the depression and immature defence mechanism scores of the patients, and there was a negative correlation between the depression and mature defence mechanism scores of the patients (p = 0.001, r = 0.412; p = 0.005, r = –0.359). A negative correlation was determined between anxiety scores and mature defence mechanism scores (p = 0.002, r = –0. 397).ConclusionsThe findings demonstrated that depressive complaints of the post-MI patients increased as the immature defence mechanism score increased, and depressive complaints decreased as the maturity defence mechanism score increased. The correlation between the defence mechanisms adopted by MI patients and depression and anxiety symptoms should not be neglected.

Abstract:
Currently, disgust is regarded as the main adaptation for defence against pathogens and parasites in humans. Disgust's motivational and behavioural features, including withdrawal, nausea, appetite suppression and the urge to vomit, defend effectively against ingesting or touching sources of pathogens. However, ectoparasites do not attack their hosts via ingestion, but rather actively attach themselves to the body surface. Accordingly, by itself, disgust offers limited defence against ectoparasites. We propose that, like non-human animals, humans have a distinct ectoparasite defence system that includes cutaneous sensory mechanisms, itch-generation mechanisms and grooming behaviours. The existence of adaptations for ectoparasite defence is supported by abundant evidence from non-human animals, as well as more recent evidence concerning human responses to ectoparasite cues. Several clinical disorders may be dysfunctions of the ectoparasite defence system, including some that are pathologies of grooming, such as skin picking and trichotillomania, and others, such as delusory parasitosis and trypophobia, which are pathologies of ectoparasite detection. We conclude that future research should explore both distinctions between, and overlap across, ectoparasite defence systems and pathogen avoidance systems, as doing so will not only illuminate proximate motivational systems, including disgust, but may also reveal important clinical and social consequences. This article is part of the Theo Murphy meeting issue ‘Evolution of pathogen and parasite avoidance behaviours'.

Full text
Abstract:
Clinical consultation begins when a patient seeks help from a doctor. The doctor is called upon to advise and this advice is based on judgments in the areas of diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. The logic of diagnosis is discussed and the importance of probability emphasised. Theories of knowledge, interpretation, and the use of models are reviewed. Judgment analysis is noted as a developing area and mistakes in clinical practice are discussed. Mention of treatment includes orthodox therapy, complementary methods, and factors contributing to quality of life. Prognosis is considered in relation to some common conditions and the impact of chaos theory. Clinical judgment is concerned with prudence and knowledge sufficient for action. The ability to make an appropriate judgment from imperfect materials is of crucial importance in medical consultation. It requires a capacity to take account of all relevant factors bearing on the case and apportioning due weight to each. Good clinical judgment is closely linked to wisdom. This thesis considers the meaning of normal in the setting of health, examines the relationship between traditional medical practice, models and computer methods, and assesses whether the capacity for clinical judgment can be improved by teaching and experience. It explores the new methods and the extent to which they can supplement or replace established practices. It is concluded that clinical judgment based on extensive knowledge and appreciation of the circumstances of the individual is a continuing need which cannot be replaced by an artificial system.

Bibliography: leaves 59-62.
The defence of non-pathological capacity presents challenges for both law and psychology because it acknowledges that psychological factors other than mental illness, are grounds for complete exculpation. In this sense, South African law differs from its Anglo-American counterparts as it recognises that non-pathological factors playa role in negating criminal responsibility. Legal and mental health professionals are instrumental in the application of the defence, but both case law and literature reflect differences in the way in which the defence is understood and applied. Disagreement within and between disciplines adds to the controversial nature of the defence. This study examines the interpretation and practical application of the defence by mental health professionals and lawyers. It explores how participants' understanding of the defence informs its application in practice. A sample of ten participants including mental health professionals (comprising psychologists and psychiatrists) and lawyers (comprising advocates) was chosen, in order that a comparison be drawn between the two groups. Semi-structured interviews were conducted so as to enable in-depth exploration of issues regarding conceptions of criminal responsibility, the role of expert testimony and the conceptual understanding and application of the defence.

Bibliography: leaves 65-69.
Military families are often forced to adjust to changes imposed by military demands. These demands often deprive the soldier of the opportunity of attending to 'personal and family relationships and responsibilities. Military demands often require the soldier to be away from their families. Deployment is one of the major factors that require changes in the family functioning. The changes brought by deployment often cause stress to the family members.1he impact of stress experienced is often determined by the family's preparedness for separation and/or the life cycle of that particular family as it is believed that young couples and families with young children are more vulnerable to deployment stress. Prolonged and enforced military separations have a profound impact on military families. Military families, unlike civilian families, often share the same characteristics as they are often exposed to the same vulnerabilities. Characteristics of the life style of military families include risk of injury or death of the soldier in the course of his/her duty and periodic separation of the soldier from the rest of his family. Many studies revealed that military families are vulnerable to stress as a result of military demands. This resulted to number of programmes designed to help military families cope better with the stress. Social work officers in the military units ate behind the implementation of these programmes. Deployment resilience seminars are one of these programmes designed to help the soldier and his family to survive during the deployment period. This study, amongst other objectives, evaluates the effectiveness of those programmes rendered to soldiers and their families. The study revealed that military families are exposed to a great deal of stress as a result of military demands. The impact of separation due to deployment has a direct effect on children, mothers and fathers. Although there was no interviews done with children the information obtained from the parents showed that children are also the hardest hit in the process. It has been proved,for example by Rosenfeld et al (1973) that the absence of father in the child is often detrimental to the child's development. There were many similarities between wives and husbands experiences to challenges of separation due to deployments. These include the loneliness, boredom, sexual frustration, separation etc. However it was interesting to find that the couples also acknowledged the benefits of separation due to deployment.

Abstract:
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), responsible for significant morbidity and mortality worldwide, especially in low-income countries. Considering aggravating factors, such as HIV co-infection and emerging drug resistance, new therapeutic interventions are urgently needed. Following exposure to M. tuberculosis, surprisingly few individuals will actually develop active disease, indicating effective defence mechanisms. One such candidate is nitric oxide (NO). The role of NO in human TB is not fully elucidated, but has been shown to have a vital role in controlling TB in animal models. The general aim of this thesis was to investigate the role of NO in the immune defence against M. tuberculosis, by combining clinical and experimental studies. In pulmonary TB patients, we found low levels of NO in exhaled air, and low levels of NO metabolites in urine. HIV coinfection decreased levels of exhaled NO even further, reflecting a locally impaired NO production in the lung. Low levels of exhaled NO were associated with a decreased cure rate in HIV-positive TB patients. Household contacts to sputum smear positive TB patient presented the highest levels of both urinary NO metabolites and exhaled NO. Malnutrition, a common condition in TB, may lead to deficiencies of important nutrients such as the amino acid L-arginine, essential for NO production. We therefore assessed the effect of an argininerich food supplement (peanuts) in a clinical trial including pulmonary TB patients, and found that peanut supplementation increased cure rate in HIV-positive TB patients. We also investigated NO susceptibility of clinical strains of M. tuberculosis, and its association to clinical outcome and antibiotic resistance. Patients infected with strains of M. tuberculosis with reduced susceptibility to NO in vitro, showed a tendency towards lower rate of weight gain during treatment. Moreover, there was a clear variability between strains in the susceptibility to NO, and in intracellular survival within NO-producing macrophages. A novel finding, that can be of importance in understanding drug resistance and for drug development, was that reduced susceptibility to NO was associated with resistance to firstline TB drugs, in particular isoniazid and mutations in inhA. Taken together, the data presented here show that NO plays a vital role  in human immune defence against TB, and although larger multicentre studies are warranted, arginine-rich food supplementation can be recommended to malnourished HIV co-infected patients on TB treatment.

Full text
Abstract:
Purpose: Glaucoma diagnosis and monitoring would benefit from a quantitative visual field (VF) classification system like VF archetypal analysis, where Elze et al. showed that any VF can be represented as a weighted sum of 17 archetype (AT) patterns. We assessed the clinical construct validity of this system by testing for clinical correlates of VF ATs. Methods: From 30,995 reliable Humphrey VFs (24-2), 243 patients were retrospectively selected, comprising the 10 to 20 patients whose VFs had the highest decomposition coefficients for each AT. Corresponding patient systemic and ocular characteristics were obtained and compared between each AT and all others using the two-tailed t-test or Fisher exact test. Results: Mean deviation and pattern standard deviation varied with VF loss severity and focality respectively. Cup-to-disc ratio was more often ≥0.7 for AT6 (central island; P=0.002), AT14 (superior paracentral defect; P=0.016), and AT16 (inferior paracentral defect; P=0.016). Other associations included: AT6 (central island): African ancestry (P<0.001) and younger age (P<0.0001); AT13 (diffuse inferior defect): African ancestry (P=0.006) and chronic angle closure glaucoma (P=0.005); and AT16 (inferior paracentral defect): female sex (P=0.017). Conclusions: Several expected clinical associations support computationally derived VF ATs’ clinical construct validity. New associations identified by exploratory analysis may merit further investigation.

Full text
Abstract:
I argue for two main theses that are at odds with the positions of many clinical researchers and philosophers who write on the ethics of clinical research. The first is that certain types of clinical trials, namely, randomized clinical trials with double or triple blinding and a placebo group are generally necessary to establish that a medical intervention is effective in treating a certain type of disease or disorder. The second main thesis is that such trials are generally not ethically impermissible. My minimalist defense of clinical trials differs from most defenses of clinical trials found in the literature. I feel that the ethical permissibility of clinical trials can be judged by answering yes to the following questions: 1) Is the potential experimental subject competent to exercise his autonomy and his right of self determination in order to enroll in the clinical trial? 2) Is the potential experimental subject informed about the nature of risk and benefit involved in his participation in the clinical trial? 3) Is the trial scientifically/ epistemically valid? 4) Will the trial attempt to answer a scientific question or questions of value? I argue that competent persons have the right to enroll in scientifically valid clinical trials so long as they are informed and consent to participate.

Abstract:

It is not the existence of depressive symptomology, but understanding the function and effect that should be central in how to best support patients. Even in cases of milder depression, phase-of-life issues, or adjustment-related depressive episodes, the myth of a magical pill, here an antidepressant, appeals to the human desire for cessation of whatever unpleasantness may be arising. As a collective, clinicians may be placating clients’ psychological defenses and natural desire to suppress or dissociate at the expense of allowing a soulful opportunity to work through and resolve challenges. Utilizing a primarily hermeneutic approach, the author contemplates various studies supporting psychotherapy, psychopharmacology, and combined therapies. Ultimately, the case is made for decision-making processes that place higher value on the greater context of potential soul opportunities for resolution and healing as well as individuation and growth.

Full text
Abstract:
Many drugs and other agents have been reported to induce platelet dysfunction and clinical bleedability; however, tetrahydrocannabinol (marijuana) has thus far not been reported. The patient herein described is a 28-year-old Caucasian female who wasreferred for evaluation of easy and spontaneous bruising. On history, the patient related that for a three-month period she had been developing spontaneous ecchymoses of the extremities and torso. She denied any medication other than heavy marijuana use. Hemostasis evaluation revealed her to have a normal prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin time (PTT), Factor VIII coagulant activity (Factor VIII:C), Factor VIII related antigen (Factor VIII:RAg), and ristocetincofactor activity. Platelet aggregation was performed which revealed abnormal aggregation to epinephrine, adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and abnormal release but normal aggregation toristocetin. She was asked to refrainfrom marijuana and was reaggregated revealing normal aggregation and release to epinephrine, ADP, collagen and arachidonic acid; however, ADP release induced by ristocetin remainedmoderately abnormal, even though aggregation was normal. In addition, with cessation of marijuana use, her clinical bruising abated.Following this, she again indulged in marijuana and she was reaggregated, revealing delayed aggregation and release to epinephrine with abnormal aggregation to ADP. Additionally, ristocetin release and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release remained abnormal but aggregation remained normal and arachidonic acid aggregationremained normal.In summary, we herein describe a young female who demonstrated aggregation abnormalities and clinically significant spontaneous bruising during periods of using marijuana; the defect disappeared upon cessation of marijuana and reappeared upon resumption of marijuana use. The defect atpresent appears to be that of a membrane-type defect with no evidence that marijuana interferes with the prostaglandin pathway.

Full text
Abstract:
Giant cell tumor (GCT) is a benign bone tumor that usually involves the end of long bone in young adults. GCT is locally aggressive, weakens the bone and can lead to pathologic fracture [1, 2]. Clinically, GCT is removed and the defect is reconstructed with bone cement, sometimes enhanced with intramedullary pins. However, there was no significant biomechanical advantage to using a cement plus pin construct over cement alone; clinical outcomes of both reconstruction methods were controversial [3–5]. While locking plates were recently adopted for GCT reconstruction, no biomechanics analysis has been performed to indicate its advantage over the cement alone or cement plus pin reconstruction. In this study we developed patient specific finite element (FE) models to compare the mechanical strengths of GCT reconstructed using cement alone and cement plus locking plate.

Abstract:
There is an urgent need for miniaturized sensors that can rapidly, accurately, and specifically detect extremely low concentrations of chemical and biological materials. Such technologies impact many areas including public health, drug development and national defense. Along with other research groups in industry and academia, we are developing new microfabricated sensors based on differential mobility spectrometry - also known as high field asymmetric ion mobility spectrometry. These sensors are suitable for rapid diagnosis of various pulmonary diseases and respiratory pathogens, and they may also be used for explosives and narcotics detection when configured and tuned to detect different chemical signatures. Similarly, we are also applying variations on this technology for the early detection of biological weapons agents. Given the extensive work being performed by many different research groups in many different specialties, there is now a need for a coherent and exhaustive look at the similarities and differences of detection in medical, pharmaceutical, defense and security applications and how these may influence system level designs.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: It has been the gold standard for decades to reconstruct a large peripheral nerve injury with a nerve autograft, and this remains true today as well. In addition to nerve autografts, biological conduits and vessels can also be applied. A fair amount of studies have examined the benefits of adding stem cells to the lumen of a nerve conduit. The aim of this meta-analysis was to summarize animal experiments related to the utilization of stem cells as a luminal additive when rebuilding a peripheral nerve injury using nerve grafts. Eligibility criteria: The inclusion criteria were as following: 1.Reconstruction of peripheral nerve injury; 2.Complete nerve transection with gap defect created; 3.Animal in-vivo models; 4.Experimental comparisons between nerve conduits containing and not containing one type of stem cell; 5.Functional testing and electrophysiology evaluations are performed. The exclusion criteria were as following: 1.Repair of central nervous system; 2.Nerve repair is accomplished by end-to-end anastomosis; 3.Animal models of entrapment injuries, frostbite, traction injuries and electric injuries; 4.Nerve conduits made from autologous epineurium; 5.Clinical trials, reviews, letters, conference papers, meta-analyses or commentaries; 6.Same studies have been published in different journals under the same or a different title.
