Compromiso Organizacional y Riesgos Psicosociales
Authors: Salvador Moreno Janeth Elizabeth 
Published: December 2019

Existen múltiples investigaciones sobre compromiso organizacional, que definen los niveles de afinidad o apego entre el trabajador y la entidad, como de riesgos psicosociales, que examinan, que elementos pueden afectar su salud; por ello se realiza una revisión sistemática exploratoria con el objetivo de destacar relaciones entre ellas (compromiso y riesgo) y otros elementos que a su vez permitan mejorar el rol del trabajador dentro de su institución. La presente revisión abarca investigaciones diversas, entre artículos científicos y trabajos doctorales, que van allanando el dilucidar de las complejidades del individuo en el plano laboral y han determinado que factores, como la estabilidad contractual, el salario, el estilo de supervisión y los temas comunicacionales, están vinculados con los niveles de compromiso organizacional y además son elementos presentes en los factores de riesgo psicosocial que lesionan su salud, lo que permite inferir elementos comunes. Esta revisión es la antesala de una investigación doctoral que aplica las mediciones de compromiso organizacional y riesgos psicosociales para determinar la existencia de correlación entre ambas.

Published: December 2019

El Perú ocupó en año 2018 el séptimo lugar en producción científica en Latinoamérica, según el ranking Scimago, subiendo apenas dos puestos desde el año 2008. Por lo anterior, el estudio se centra en conocer la producción científica de docentes peruanos, comparando dos universidades, la Universidad Cesar Vallejo y Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. La investigación fue no experimental, descriptiva y comparativa. Se aplicó un muestreo probabilístico con n = 582 participantes en total. Se utilizaron datos del Directorio Nacional de Investigadores e Innovadores, así como un cuestionario para obtener la motivación y percepción de los docentes. Se evidencia que la producción científica se desarrolla de manera desigual, favoreciendo a la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, que presenta mayor desarrollo. A la mayoría de los docentes los motivan las normativas de educación superior del país (48%) y se percibe falta de apoyo económico y asesoría técnica para la producción científica.

Published: December 2019

Background: - Trigeminal neuralgia is a disease typically characterized by involuntary attacks of lancinating pain in the distribution of the trigeminal nerve that are activated by non-noxious stimuli. Numerous anticonvulsants, either alone or in combination, remain the first choice in the medical treatment of trigeminal neuralgia.3If the disease becomes non responsive, there are numerous surgical options like micro vascular decompression or minimally invasive percutaneous lesioning of the trigeminal nerve, such as glycerol rhizolysis, Radiofrequency Rhizotomy, and balloon compression. Objective: - To determine efficacy of percutaneous Radiofrequency Rhizotomy for trigeminal neuralgia in terms of early pain relief in a tertiary care hospital. Methods: - 62 patients with refractory trigeminal neuralgia or lancinating, recurrent episodes of pain in the distribution of Ophthalmic (V1) and Mandibular (V3) branches of trigeminal nerve, not responsive to 6 months of conservative treatment were included. Study was completed in one year i.e. from March 2015 to Feb 2016. Result: - In our study population, 62 included patients were had mean age 56.08 ± 7.39 years. 44 patients (71%) were male. Our treatment was effective in 58 patients (93.5%) while there was recurrence among 4 (6.5%) only. Conclusion: - It is concluded that the efficacy of percutaneous Radiofrequency Rhizotomy for trigeminal neuralgia in terms of complete relief of pain with intact sensations in treated branch region is excellent (93.5%).

Negative impacts of the adaptation process linked to local cultural stress levels in immigrants and development of psychiatric disorders: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Alves Mayana Rodrigues de Melo , Freitas Jéssica Luma Marques , Rolim Neto Modesto Leite 
Published: December 2019

Background
Current studies underline and enable the international scientific community to reflect on migrant needs to restart, mostly without fluency in the language from the country of destination, without a way of proving his/her knowledges and abilities, with an incomplete family core, without cultural references that until that moment defined him/her as belonging to a specific group, with defined and meaningful habits, full of symbolic representations.
Iams
Conduct an analysis on the implications of migration in refugees’ mental health, and the link between these implications and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
Method
Indexed journals in MEDLINE and LILACS databases hosted in Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), as well as papers hosted in Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) Periodicals Portal. Searches were carried using the following DeCS descriptors: “Stress Disorders, Post-Traumatic”, "Refugees” e “Mental Health”.
Results
The 10 studies included in the present review were carried in Australia, Denmark, Ethiopia, Turkey, Uganda, Israel, South Korea and Papua New Guinea, and were published in 2014 (2), 2015 (6), and 2017 (2). Regarding the subject, 50% of the articles concentrate information regarding PTSD and mental health problems, while the remaining half deals with psychosocial effects of mass conflict on refugees. Meta-analysis concludes that a considerable percentage of refugees suffer from psychiatric disorder, I-squared (variation in ES attributable to heterogeneity) = 96,46%; Estimate of between-study variance Tau^2= 0.02. Test of ES=0 : z= 17.75 p= 0.00.
Conclusion
Exposure to traumatic events such as public executions and other extreme acts of violence, murder of family members, family and friends’ death due to starvation, homelessness, are closely related to PTSD prevalence in refugees. Acculturation and family’s prolonged estrangement are predictors of depressive symptoms in refugees and both exposure to a new culture and adaptation to new laws and norms of welcoming countries act as stressors and aggravators of depressive symptoms.
Comment enquêter qualitativement sur le suicide ?
Authors: Deffontaines Nicolas 
Published: December 2019

Alors que la sociologie du suicide est très majoritairement quantitative, cet article montre comment saisir ce phénomène par l’ethnographie. Loin de constituer une entorse à l’objectivation durkheimienne centrée sur le taux social de suicide, elle permet au contraire d’enrichir l’étude des causes sociales du suicide. S’appuyant sur une enquête portant sur les suicides d’agriculteurs, il montre comment dépasser la sidération de la pensée et l’illusion biographique par laquelle tout est réinterprété à la lumière de l’acte pour construire les trajectoires de suicidés auprès de « proches éloignés ». Cette catégorie d’informateurs permet d’accéder à un ensemble de renseignements auxquels nous n’aurions pas eu accès en interrogeant l’entourage direct.
Âge biologique versus âge social : une distinction problématique
Authors: Rennes Juliette 
Published: December 2019

Face à l’âge et au vieillissement, les sciences biomédicales et les sciences sociales se divisent le travail d’enquête. Les premières s’intéressent à l’âge dit biologique, soit aux relations entre l’état corporel et le nombre d’années vécues ; les secondes s’intéressent à l’organisation sociale des étapes de l’existence ainsi qu’aux usages sociaux de l’âge comme outil de gouvernement des populations et comme dimension des rapports de pouvoir. Or, appréhender l’âge biologique du point de vue des sciences sociales permet non seulement d’étudier les effets des pratiques sociales sur le processus de croissance et de vieillissement, mais aussi de mieux comprendre ce que les discriminations fondées sur « l’âge » doivent à l’emprise des représentations sociales du vieillissement biologique en termes de déclin.
À propos du statut des didactiques
Authors: Reuter Yves 
Published: December 2019

Cet article interroge quelques controverses portant sur le statut des didactiques en Sciences de l’Éducation au travers de trois questions : celle de la reconnaissance ou non des recherches en didactiques, celle de la normativité censée être attachée aux didactiques et celle des contributions apportées par les didactiques aux autres disciplines de recherche. En conclusion, il soulève quelques problèmes auxquels sont confrontées les didactiques : les dérives discursives (polémiques, jargon, dimension ostentatoire des références), les limites de la centration sur le système didactique (qui empêchent de véritablement penser ses conditions d’installation et certains de ses effets), la méconnaissance de l’inconscient des didactiques (qui amène à figer la relation aux disciplines scolaires), les relations encore insuffisamment pensées avec la pédagogie.
