The author analysesEncyclopédie’s articles devoted to nervous and mental functioning and disorders, showing that a new approach to lunacy as a mental illness, which is defined in some articles as a “general trouble of the animal economy”, progressively emerged. The term,animal economy, unified physical and moral aspects of the study of man. It was elaborated by XVIIIth century physiologists and was widely accepted by French physicians. This idea is based on the vitalistic thought of the Montpellier school, which equated life with sensibility, and on English medical conceptions of a nervous-centred organism. Later on Philippe Pinel’s work displayed the legacy of these conceptions. On one hand, the comprehensive view of physical and moral dimensions in theanimal economy neutralized the question of an organic or psychogenetic origin of madness. This enabled him to consider it as a determinate field of sensibility interactions and as a medical matter, and to legitimize the group of therapeutic practices that he namedtraitement moral. On the other hand, Pinel departed from the classical conception ofanimal economy by developing his concept of aprinciple of mania, which underlies the manifold symptoms and forms of madness, and which are only perceptible to a trained specialist (aliéniste). The historical development analysed in this article show how alienists were enabled to claim both the wholly medical nature of insanity as disease, and their specific competence as apart from the other medical disciplines. To this extent, Esquirol achieved Pinel’s scientific work. 相似文献

This paper describes the sexological examination of spinal cord injured men. The complete exam includes a clinical interview, neurological examination, an EMG of the pelvic floor, a urodynamic examination and ano-rectal exploration, and the objective recording of the man’s sexual response to reflex and psychogenic professionals or psychologists and sextherapists can proceed with a more thorough interview which evaluates number of the elements of the physical examination. The results of the investigation give rise to a number of clinical entities described in terms of lesion levels with respect to the innervation of the reproductive system. Lesions can therefore be classified as being located above the two pathways of erection, or extended to the cauda equina. Each lesion type is associated with a given pronostic of erectile and ejaculatory function. The accompanying physiological recording of penile responses further helps to establish a differential diagnosis between an exclusively organic dysfunction or a primarily psychogenic dysfunction in spinal cord injured men. 相似文献

Testosterone orchestrates the perinatal organization and activation of cerebral and spinal neuronal structures involved in the expression of male sexual behaviour in adults. The present review briefly describes testosterone effects in the regulation of sexual motivation and erection, as well as the genetic models developed to date in order to unravel its central mechanisms of action. 相似文献

Du fait de l’histoire géologique des Mascareignes et des trajectoires cycloniques dans le sud-ouest de l’océan Indien, l’affinité de la faune odonatologique de la Réunion est essentiellement mauricienne. L’étude de la distribution des Odonates en fonction des différents écosystèmes aquatiques de l’île montre que: 1. Les espèces indigènes ayant une vaste répartition géographique se rencontrent essentiellement dans les écosystèmes ouverts de basse et moyenne altitude (de 0 à 800 m d’altitude). Ces écosystèmes peuvent héberger jusqu’à 13 espèces et possèdent les plus fortes densités odonatologiques. 2. La faune odonatologique de la Réunion se distingue de celle des autres îles de la sous-région malgache par la présence de deux espèces continentales cantonnées à des altitudes supérieures à 1000 m. 3. Les espèces endémiques fréquentent surtout les écosystèmes forestiers. Ces écosystèmes ne présentent au plus que cinq espèces de la faune odonatologique de l’île. En définitive, il apparaît donc que la spéciation des Odonates à la Réunion ne se fait pas dans les écosystèmes diversifiés comportant des espèces à large répartition géographique, mais dans un ensemble d’écosystèmes marginaux à faible diversité odonatologique. 相似文献

Background
Lipoproteins are closely associated with the atherosclerotic vascular process. Elevated levels of highdensity lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and apolipoprotein AI (apo AI) in plasma indicate a low probability of coronary heart disease (CHD) together with enhanced longevity, and elevated levels of low-density lipoproteincholesterol (LDL-C) and apo B indicate an increased risk of CHD and death. Studies linking gene activation and the induction of cytochrome P450 with elevated plasma levels of apo AI and HDL-C and lowered plasma levels of LDL-C presented a new potential approach to prevent and treat atherosclerotic disease.Objective and methods
This is a review aimed at clarifying the effects of P450-enzymes and gene activation on cholesterol homeostasis, the atherosclerotic vascular process, prevention and regression of atherosclerosis and the manifestation of atherosclerotic disease, particularly CHD, the leading cause of death in the world.Results
P450-enzymes maintain cellular cholesterol homeostasis. They respond to cholesterol accumulation by enhancing the generation of hydroxycholesterols (oxysterols) and activating cholesterol-eliminating mechanisms. The CYP7A1, CYP27A1, CYP46A1 and CYP3A4 enzymes generate major oxysterols that enter the circulation. The oxysterols activate — via nuclear receptors — ATP-binding cassette (ABC) A1 and other genes, leading to the elimination of excess cholesterol and protecting arteries from atherosclerosis. Several drugs and nonpharmacologic compounds are ligands for the liver X receptor, pregnane X receptor and other receptors, activate P450 and other genes involved in cholesterol elimination, prevent or regress atherosclerosis and reduce cardiovascular events.Conclusions
P450-enzymes are essential in the physiological maintenance of cholesterol balance. They activate mechanisms which eliminate excess cholesterol and counteract the atherosclerotic process. Several drugs and nonpharmacologic compounds induce P450 and other genes, prevent or regress atherosclerosis and reduce the occurrence of non-fatal and fatal CHD and other atherosclerotic diseases. 相似文献7.

The archaeological units of the Baume-Vallée rock shelter (Haute-Loire) in the South-East of the Massif Central, excavated by A. Laborde (from 1966 to 1973) then by J.-P. Raynal (from 1974 to 1996), have yielded abundant lithic assemblages attributed to the late Middle Paleolithic, characterized by a remarkable diversity of the raw materials used. The lithic industry of the upper units had previously been described as belonging to the Charentian facies lato sensu, then was attributed to the Ferrassie-type Mousterian. The technology and the techno-economic revision of its upper assemblage bring new information on the flaking mechanisms and the steps of the chaînes opératoires. These data tend to include this assemblage in the Levallois techno-complexes with scrappers often observed in late Middle Paleolithic of southeastern France. 相似文献

The vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) is a heterogeneous group of various etiologies, which share a presumed vascular cause. Although the age is the most important risk factor, the cardiovascular risk factors are also involved. A relatively high proportion of these cognitive disorders could be prevented or delayed. Only the treatment of arterial hypertension is recognized as a factor in preventing vascular dementia. MRI is the examination of choice for the investigation of cerebral vascular pathology. However, this morphological imaging is insufficient and does not provide useful functional information. Perfusion brain SPECT is not widely used in the exploration of VCI. Strategies for screening VCI are not standardized and long-term studies are needed to establish the better prevention of cognitive vascular disorders. This article aims to summarize the possible benefit of cerebral perfusion SPECT in the exploration of VCI. 相似文献

European and US drug regulatory authorities have recently warned against the use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) in childhood and adolescent depression. Through an extensive literature review on the use of SSRIs to treat depression in children and adolescents — including psychiatric clinical trials, pharmacology, and drug safety data — we will: i) describe the main arguments justifying various regulatory decisions; ii) present published data and subsequent meta-analyses; iii) discuss how to integrate the recommendations into daily clinical practice, freeing professionals from a Manichean approach. We reach the limits of evidence-based medicine, which provide the basis of the scientific work of the regulatory authorities. 相似文献

The identification of ischemia-related coronary artery by stress myocardial perfusion SPECT (SPECT-MPS) is difficult, but it is likely that this identification could be easier by fusionning the SPECT images with images from coronary CT angiography (CTA).ObjectiveTo assess the usefulness of the fusion of SPECT-MPS images with CTA images in the identification of ischemia-related coronary arteries.MethodSPECT-MPS and CTA, which had been recorded in a delay ≤ 3 months, were reanalyzed blindly to identify the coronary arterial vessels with (1) stress ischemia at SPECT-MPS and (2) significant coronary stenosis (> 70 %) at CTA. In case of discordance between the two techniques, an analysis was performed while fusioning the SPECT-MPS and CTA images.ResultsThe population included 38 patients, of whom 22 (58 %) had an ischemia at SPECT-MPS. The identification of the ischemia-related vessels was initially discordant between SPECT-MPS and CTA for 17 patients (45 %). After the fusion's analysis, nine out of these 17 patients (53 %) became totally concordant because of modifications in the CTA analysis in six patients and in the SPECT-MPS analysis in only three. A low severity of ischemia was the main correlate of persisting discordances after fusion: 58 % (7/12) of such low severity ischemia were observed in coronary vessels with persisting discordance, but only 24 % (5/27) with concordant coronary vessels (p = 0.02).ConclusionThe identification with SPECT-MPS of the ischemia-related coronary artery is rarely modified by a fusion analysis with CTA images. Discordances between the two techniques remain frequent, even after fusion, but especially in case of low severity SPECT-MPS ischemias. 相似文献

Semen analysis is subject to great variability, partly due to the mechanism of ejaculation. This variability can be reduced by taking certain precautions, such as interviewing the patient to eliminate any external factor of variability, by imposing a 3- to 5-day period of sexual abstinence, by explaining the procedures to avoid bacterial contamination of the sample, by verifying whether the whole semen sample has been collected, by checking that the temperature of the sample is maintained at 37°C and finally, by carefully homogenising the sample to obtain good quality liquefaction. 相似文献

A subjective world can be conceptualized as a “representational space” — that is, as a universe displayed from memory, in which the subject “is sailing”. Recent cognitive theory provides some conceptual tools for describing such a space in a relevant way for clinical purposes. The construction of a representational space is based on mental representations: (a) analogical representations, which display a content in working memory; (b) symbolic representations, which code and link up analogical representations to form a represented world. The dynamics of representations and affects is ruled by a principle of unification of representational space. The topology of a representational space depends on objective and subjective constraints which cause some “folds” and limit the display of such a space. The interaction between an event and a subjective memory can be analyzed within this framework, so that the concepts of trauma and defence processes can be defined. Clinical syndromes are defensive configurations that tend to close the representational space. 相似文献

FDG PET/CT is a relevant examination for patients with high-risk melanoma. For early stages with thickness ≥ 1 mm, lymph node ultrasound, and when negative, lymphoscintigraphy for determination of sentinel lymph node, remain necessary. For more advanced stages, FDG PET can map the lesions and guide the therapeutic strategy, either with surgical management, or systemic therapy (or sometimes both). In patients with high-risk melanoma, it allows to detect relapses early, including in asymptomatic patients, with a potential impact on therapeutic decisions. Beside the detection of classical secondary localizations, FDG PET has the advantage of allowing whole-body imaging, the identification of soft tissue lesions, frequent in melanomas, as well as rarer sites of involvement, such as those of the gastro-intestinal tract. For the assessment of cerebral and leptomeningeal involvement, MRI remains mandatory. Evolutions in the therapeutic management of advanced melanomas, and the search for biomarkers to guide the therapeutic strategy, ask for more refined analyses of PET, with metabolic tumour volume analysis and radiomics. The combination of metabolic imaging data with biological and molecular data, and the development of new PET tracers may improve the assessment of prognosis and the prediction of response to therapies, in order to tailor the therapeutic strategy to each patient. Further studies are needed to consolidate the role of PET/CT in this disease for which numerous therapeutic innovations are emerging. 相似文献

This paper deals with the environmental changes during two important transitional periods, namely Lower/Middle Paleolithic and Middle/Upper Paleolithic transitions, and with their impact on biological and cultural evolutions, in the context of central, eastern and northwestern Europe, where ice-sheet transgressions induced particular paleogeographical and paleoecological conditions. Another country was studied too, the Balkans, a privileged area for bilateral contacts between Europe and the Near East. 相似文献

Osteochondritis, or Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCP), is a necrosis of the proximal femoral epiphysis. This vascular accident entails on the complex phenomenon of growth of the child's hip and can result in deformations or even a strict destruction of the proximal femoral epiphysis. The aim of this article is to show the interest of the bone scintigraphy (BS) in precocious diagnosis and follow-up of LCP disease. In this aim, we introduced a clinical case of LCP disease where BS allowed a precocious diagnosis and a strigent monitoring. Discussion of case includes a systematic review of literature. 相似文献

Klinefelter’s syndrome is a common sex chromosomal aberration generally characterized by hypergonadotrophic hypogonadism and azoospermia. However, spermatogenesis impairment is variable and severe oligozoospermia can be found in some men, particularly those exhibiting a mosaic karyotype 47,XXY/ 46,XY. New reproductive technologies, such as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), allow Klinefelter patients to have a progeny, even those who are azoospermic after testicular sperm recovery. The question therefore arises of whether or not there is a genetic risk for pregnancies from affected fathers. Sperm karyotyping, by in vitro penetration of zona-free hamster eggs or by fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH), is a method of choice for measuring aneuploidy rate in spermatozoa of patients carrying gonosomal abnormalities. A theoretical model would predict a high level of 24,XX and/or 24,XY disomic sperm cells in Klinefelter patients if 47,XXY spermatogonia were able to complete meiosis and achieve spermatogenesis. Interestingly, current observations show that the rate of abnormal spermatozoa in these patients is low, around 1–2%, which indicates that only 46,XY spermatogonia can produce mature sperm cells and that oligozoospermic Klinefelter patients probably carry a 47,XXY / 46,XY mosaicism, at least at the testicular level. However, this low but statistically significant level of disomic spermatozoa emphasizes the fact that their spermatogenesis occurs in a compromised environment which could increase the risk of meiotic errors. Therefore, the possible occurrence of autosomal aneuploidies in children born from Klinefelter fathers leads to the following recommendations: a) individual analysis by FISH of the sperm aneuploidy rate in each Klinefelter patient candidate for ICSI; b) proposal of fetal karyotyping after amniocentesis in pregnancies obtained by this technique. 相似文献
