Relations éducatives en institution : une approche systémique
Authors: Martin Catherine 
Published: January 2019

Psychologue, chef de service et éducateur(trice)s spécialisé(e)s dans un service éducatif d’une maison d’enfants à caractère social, accueillant des adolescents en grandes difficultés, nous nous sommes interrogés sur la pratique de la référence éducative. Cette méthode est couramment répandue, elle impacte considérablement la relation éducative entre les professionnels et les adolescents. La façon dont cette référence est désignée peut avoir des répercussions psychiques importantes en lien avec la manière dont les relations, les interactions, interviennent dans la construction de l’individu. Par la mise en place de la « référence collective », qui utilise les relations privilégiées que le jeune pourrait lui-même développer au sein du service, nous expérimentons le fait que celle-ci pourrait constituer un véritable outil systémique générateur de changements à différents niveaux.
Eradicating Barriers to Advancement From RN to BSN: An Exploratory Study
Authors: Nininger Jami M. , Abbott Miriam R.B. , Shaw Peggy 
Published: January 2019

Background:
To improve the quality of patient care, the Institute of Medicine has called for eliminating barriers to academic progression for nurses. Despite this call, nurses who matriculate from institutions that lack national nursing-specific accreditation are denied admission to advanced degree programs.

Method:
Within an online RN-to-baccalaureate nursing (BSN) program, the performance of students who matriculated from institutions lacking discipline-specific accreditation was compared with student performance representative of programs holding discipline-specific accreditation. The bases for comparison were grade point average (GPA), on-time completion rate, and academic withdrawal.

Results:

Students admitted from institutions lacking national nursing accreditation had a higher on-time completion rate and a lower GPA than comparison groups. Differences in GPA were statistically insignificant (
p
> .05). Evidence regarding withdrawals was insufficient for adequate comparisons.

Conclusion:

Admission policies that deny education opportunities to candidates from institutions lacking national nursing accreditation may create unwarranted barriers to educational advancement. [

Efficacy of Induction Chemotherapy in Retinoblastoma, Alone or Combined With Other Adjuvant Modalities
Authors: Ghose S , Nizamuddin S H M , Sethi A , Mohanti B K , Kumar H , Arya L S , Thavaraj V 
Published: January 2019

ABSTRACT
Background: There are not much data available on the use of newer a nti meta bol ites as an initial treatment modality in retinoblastoma, or their effect on vitreous seedings and de novo foci, especially in the Indian subcontinent.
Methods: To evaluate the efficacy of newer agents as induction chemotherapy, 34 tumors in 22 eyes of 19 children with bilateral retinoblastoma were treated with 2 cycles of carboplatin, etoposide, vincristine, and cyclophosphamide; each cycle was of 1 month duration. The tumor response was evaluated at 2 months and adjuvant salvage modalities (ie, cryotherapy, laser, and/or external beam radiotherapy) were added as needed. The cycles were continued and ophthalmoscopic and ultrasonographic monitorings were performed to determine further tumor response, tumor height regression, effect on vitreous seeds, and other ocular changes.
Results: Mean tumor height at presentation was 4.2 mm, which regressed to 2.61 mm at 6 months (P=0.000). The biggest tumor to respond was 1 2.5 mm, although smaller multiple tumors regressed better. Adjuvant modalities were used in 28 tumor foci in 16 eyes. A follow up of 6 to 24 months (mean, 12.8±6.21 months), showed complete regression in 12/34 tumors, partial regression in 15/34, stable disease in 6/34, and ? tumor progressed despite all therapy. Results in all 6 eyes with vitreous seeds were most gratifying; at 1 year vitreous seeds disappeared in 4 eyes and showed complete calcification in 2. Fresh new lesions were not seen in any eye with complete response after the first 2 cycles of chemotherapy. Recurrences were nil and complications minor.
Conclusions: The overall tumor response (complete and partial) of more than 80% indicates that chemoreduction is an effective modality alone and combined with adjuvant salvage modalities. The results with our treatment regime, even in cases with advanced intraocular retinoblastoma, are encouraging.

Laser Treatment of Zone I Prethreshold and Stage 3 Threshold Retinopathy of Prematurity
Authors: Récsán Zsuzsa , Vámos Rita , Salacz György 
Published: January 2019

ABSTRACT
Purpose: To analyze the structural outcomes of zone I prethreshold and stage 3 threshold retinopathy of prematurity following laser ablation.
Patients and Methods: This nonrandomized observational case series evaluated 71 eyes of 36 infants who weighed less than 1,250 g at birth. Infants were treated at either prethreshold or threshold severity. The structural outcomes were compared using Fisher's exact test.
Results: The structural outcome was favorable in 96% and 80% of the prethreshold and threshold groups, respectively (P = .069). When an unfavorable outcome was defined as dragging of the temporal vessels, the difference was significant (P = .0257).
Conclusion: Early treatment of zone I disease may result in a better structural outcome.

Incidence and Severity of Retinopathy of Prematurity in Vietnam, a Developing Middle-Income Country
Authors: Phan Mai Hong , Nguyen Phuong Ngoc , Reynolds James D 
Published: January 2019

ABSTRACT
Background: Although retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a leading cause of childhood blindness, its impact in lower income countries is not well documented. The World Health Organization has proclaimed that infants at risk for ROP should have screening eye examinations and access to treatment.
Patients and Methods: A prospective study was conducted from January 1 through December 31, 2001, at Tu Du Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City for premature infants who weighed 1 ,500 g or less at birth or were 33 gestational weeks or younger. Serial examinations were used to classify ROP, and treatment outcomes were noted.
Results: Two hundred twenty-five consecutive infants were included in the data analysis. Birth weights ranged from 900 to 2,000 g (mean, 1 ,512 g). Gestational ages ranged from 26 to 36 weeks (mean, 31 weeks). ROP was present in 103 (45.8%) of the 225 infants. In infants who weighed 1 ,250 g or less at birth, the ROP rate was 81 .2% (26 of 32 infants). Threshold ROP was present in 9.3% of the 225 infants but in 25% of the 32 infants. Twenty-four eyes received treatment, whereas 16 lacked the family resources. Of the 24 treated eyes, 1 8 (75%) had a favorable outcome. Of the 1 6 untreated eyes, only 3 had a favorable outcome.
Conclusions: ROP incidence is high in Vietnam, similar to that in the United States. However, larger, older infants are at risk in Vietnam and the rate of severe ROP seems to be higher. This necessitates an ROP screening paradigm different from that currently used in the United States.

Comparison of Cosmetic Results in Frontalis Sling Operations: The Eyelid Crease Incision Versus the Supralash Stab Incision
Authors: Yagci Ayse , Egrilmez Sait 
Published: January 2019

ABSTRACT
Purpose: In addition to ptosis, the lack of eyelid crease is one of the main cosmetic problems of patients with poor levator function. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of the incision site on ptosis correction and eyelid crease formation in frontalis sling operations.
Materials and Methods: Photographs and charts of 27 patients (45 eyelids) who underwent frontalis sling operations were retrospectively reviewed. All patients had congenital ptosis with poor levator function ranging from 0 to 4 mm. In group I (15 eyelids), 3 supralash eyelid skin incisions were performed and the sling material was threaded along the tarsal surface. In group II (30 eyelids), the eyelid crease approach was used with the suturing of the sling material directly to the tarsus.
Results: Although lid contour and lid crease symmetry were good in 46.6% of the cases in group I, eyelid crease formation was not satisfactory in any of the cases. Lid contour and lid crease symmetry were good in 76.6% of the cases in group II.
Conclusion: Our results indicated that the eyelid crease approach provided better functional and cosmetic results than did the supralash stab incision in frontalis sling operations. The passage of the sling material behind the orbital septum by direct visualization in the eyelid crease approach is one of the main factors affecting the surgical success of the frontalis sling operation.

Results of Pars Plana Vitrectomy in Closed-Globe Injuries
Authors: Ersanli Dilaver , Unah Melih , Aydin Ali , Gulecek Oguz , Kalemoglu Murat 
Published: January 2019

* BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To assess surgical and visual outcomes with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) in closed-globe injuries resulting in anterior and posterior segment pathologies and evaluate the factors influencing the prognosis.
* PATIENTS AND METHODS: Retrospective observational study. Forty-seven eyes of 47 consecutive patients who underwent PPV because of closed-globe injury between January 1992 and August 2003 were reviewed. Surgical and visual outcomes and prognostic factors were analyzed according to the Ocular Trauma Classification System.
* RESULTS: Preoperative visual acuity was less than 4/200 in 49% of eyes, classified as grades IV to V After surgery, this ratio was 23% (P < .05). Final visual acuity was statistically significantly better in grade I (P = .0001), grade II (P= .002), and relative afferent pupillary defect-negative (P= .0001) injuries. Maculopathy was the most common adverse outcome influencing final visual acuity (32%), followed by secondary glaucoma (13%) and proliferative vitreoretinopathy (8%).
* CONCLUSION: PPV is a favorable treatment modality in severe closed-globe injuries. Assessment of injuries with respect to the Ocular Trauma Classification System seemed to predict visual outcomes in this series.

Clinical Evaluation of Refractive Changes Following Brow Suspension Surgery in Pediatric Patients With Congenital Blepharoptosis
Authors: Kumar Sushil , Chaudhuri Zia , Chauhan Deepender 
Published: January 2019

* BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the postoperative visual acuity and refractive changes occurring after bilateral frontalis brow suspension surgery in pediatric patients with congenital blepharoptosis.
* PATIENTS AND METHODS: Twenty-three patients between 4 and 12 years old with severe congenital blepharoptosis (unilateral in 21 cases and bilateral in 2 cases; total of 25 eyes) and poor levator function underwent bilateral frontalis brow suspension surgery by Crawford's double triangle method with 4:0 expanded polytetrafluoroethylene sutures. The non-ptotic eyes (21 eyes) undergoing frontalis brow suspension surgery served as the control group. All patients had best-corrected spectacle visual acuity (BCSVA) of more than 6/9 preoperatively in both eyes. Changes in the postoperative BCSVA, binocularity, relevant refractive parameters, lid position, lagophthalmos, lid lag, and tear break-up time were evaluated in both groups for 12 weeks and appropriate statistical tests were applied.
* RESULTS: Significant differences were found in the baseline characteristics and the postoperative changes in the eyes with and without ptosis. However, these were found to be transient and did not result in any new cases of amblyopia postoperatively. No complications requiring revision of surgery were seen.
* CONCLUSIONS: The changes in the BCSVA after frontalis brow suspension surgery are transient. Retinoscopy, manual keratometry, and corneal videokeratoscopy are simple and effective methods to evaluate the sequential refractive changes occurring in these eyes.

Feasibility of Screening for High-Risk Age-Related Macular Degeneration With an Internet-Based Automated Fundus Camera
Authors: Zimmer-Galler Ingrid E , Zeimer Ran 
Published: January 2019

* BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The objective of this pilot study was to determine whether a new screening system, the DigiScope (EyeTel Imaging, Inc., Columbia, MD), can detect the presence of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) at a level requiring referral to an ophthalmologist for further evaluation and possible treatment.
* PATIENTS AND METHODS: The DigiScope is an Internet-based semi-automated digital imaging system designed to be in primary care physicians' offices. Fortytwo eyes of 21 patients with different categories of AMD were imaged with both the DigiScope and a standard color fundus camera. The imaging capability of the two modalities was compared for identification of lesions associated with AMD and classification into stages.
* RESULTS: There was good agreement for low-risk lesions and excellent agreement for high-risk lesions. Thirty-five of 36 eyes with intermediate or advanced disease were correctly identified with DigiScope images. Choroidal neovascularization was identified in all cases with the DigiScope due to the presence of subretinal hemorrhage or subretinal fibrosis. The DigiScope was found less capable of detecting subretinal fluid than standard stereo fundus photographs.
* CONCLUSIONS: This pilot study suggests that the DigiScope may be a useful screening tool for AMD.

La mercantilización del cuerpo masculino en la publicidad moderna
Authors: Rey Fuentes Juan 
Published: January 2019

En la cultura occidental el cuerpo humano ha sido un elemento secundario, ya que el prioritario era el alma. Fue necesaria la llegada de la Ilustración para que el cuerpo –la materia– comenzara a ser tenido en cuenta. Puede, pues, decirse que esta conferencia tiene sus orígenes en el siglo XVIII. Sin embargo, desde entonces hasta ahora, ha transcurrido mucho tiempo, han sucedido muchos acontecimientos, han evolucionado mucho las ideas. Pero en el fondo, nuestra percepción del cuerpo deriva grosso modode los postulados ideológicos del Siglo de las Luces.
Estudo comparado do impacto das políticas públicas do IPPDH no tratamento do legado das ditaduras militares nos países do Mercosul
Authors: Pozzatti Junior Ademar , Pereira Tamara Lorenzoni 
Published: January 2019

A cooperação internacional foi utilizada para intensa violação dos direitos humanos nas ditaduras militares na América Latina, sendo a Operação Condor a expressão máxima dessa ação sistemática e coordenada na região. Porém, a cooperação regional também pode ser utilizada para tutelar os direitos humanos, tratando o legado deixado pelas ditaduras nos países latino-americanos. É nesse sentido que o Instituto de Políticas Públicas de Direitos Humanos do MERCOSUL (IPPDH) atua e pensa políticas públicas regionais para tratar, conjuntamente, de questões comuns à região. Neste contexto, a presente pesquisa investiga de forma comparada o impacto das normativas do IPPDH no tratamento do legado das ditaduras militares do Cone Sul e, assim, identificou o papel da cooperação regional nesse processo. A hipótese testada, através do método hipotético-dedutivo, é de que a justiça de transição só se efetiva na região se for amparada por um esquema de cooperação regional que seja capaz de tratar de forma igualmente sistemática e coordenada a memória e a verdade das ditaduras militares. Busca-se assim, compreender se e como a cooperação regional, além da violação de direitos humanos, pode ser utilizada para consolidar uma justiça de transição na região.

Emilia Pardo Bazán impartió, entre los meses de marzo y abril de 1918, un ciclo de conferencias sobre literatura francesa decadentista en el Ateneo de Madrid. La escritora, que ya había publicado tres volúmenes sobre literatura francesa, acerca del Romanticismo, la Transición y el Naturalismo, proyectaba publicar un cuarto estudio sobre el Decadentismo con parte de la documentación de estas conferencias, pero dicho proyecto nunca vio la luz. En este artículo analizo las seis conferencias inéditas que componían el ciclo, y edito aquellas parcialmente conservadas en el Archivo de la Real Academia Galega.Emilia Pardo Bazán gave, between March and April, 1918, a cycle of lectures on French decadent literature at the Ateneo of Madrid.

In this article I analyze six unpublished lectures which comprise the cycle, and those partially preserved in the Real Academia Galega Archive are edited.
Rivalry or alliance?: the relationship between hyperbole and literal language
Authors: Cano Mora Laura 
Published: January 2019

This paper focuses on the relationship between neighbouring literal and figurative expressions, a much under-researched area in figurative language theories. Traditionally it has been assumed that language is used figuratively when a literal expression would be inadequate, thus supporting the view that figurative and literal language replace or substitute each other. In order to question this view and to explore this relationship, a group of hyperbolic adverbs extracted from the British National Corpus and used in naturally-occurring speech was examined. The results show that hyperbole and literal comments seem to extend and complement, rather than replace, each other. This complementation is often achieved through paraphrase or clarification of a preceding remark, whether literal or exaggerated. The analysis also seems to suggest that if speakers need to add some information the most common pattern is a hyperbole followed, rather than preceded, by a literal expression.El presente artículo se centra en el estudio de la relación entre expresiones literales y figuradas adyacentes, cuestión rara vez investigada en las teorías del lenguaje figurado. Tradicionalmente se ha creído que los hablantes utilizamos las figuras cuando el lenguaje literal resulta inadecuado, reafirmando así la idea de que el lenguaje literal y figurado se sustituyen el uno al otro. Con el fin de cuestionar esta visión y explorar dicha relación examinamos un grupo de adverbios hiperbólicos usados en conversaciones reales extraídas del British National Corpus. Los resultados indican que la hipérbole y el uso literal del lenguaje parecen complementarse en lugar de reemplazarse. Con frecuencia dicha complementariedad se consigue a través de la paráfrasis o clarificación de un comentario previo, ya sea literal o exagerado. El análisis a su vez parece sugerir que cuando el hablante siente la necesidad de añadir información el patrón más común es una hipérbole seguida, en lugar de precedida, de una expresión literal.

Published: January 2019

Abstract
This research aims to obtain knowledge of the perception of last year´s students’ in Pre-primary and Primary Education Degrees and Secondary Education, Vocational Education and Languages Education in Teachers University Master (better known as Training Teachers Master or Secondary Education Master) at Jaen University (UJA) and the National Distance Education University (UNED), about the most important competences in their learning process. Those competences allow students to develop their knowledge and practice, in order to be capable of dealing with those real demands that surround them. In order to achieve this, we use a descriptive methodology. We apply an ad hoc, pre-designed questionnaire,(n=638). The results reveal a positive opinion in students in relation to competences and how those competences are developed within their classrooms or Study centers. In addition to that, students present some proposals to boost the improvement of competences. They invite teachers to innovate and to create new educative models that allow them to achieve an optimal development as future professionals.
Doença de Crohn em adulto na região de Maringá: relato de caso e revisão
Authors: Vidigal Pedrina Gonçalves , Mella Junior Sidney Edson 
Published: January 2019

A doença de Crohn e a colite ulcerativa são as principais patologias crônicas relacionadas com a desordem de inflamação intestinal. As causas ainda são desconhecidas, mas estudos epidemiológicos sugerem que a imunologia, a genética e o ambiente sejam os possíveis fatores. Além disso, a doença de Crohn pode acometer qualquer parte do trato gastrointestinal, principalmente as regiões do íleo terminal e do cólon, e é caracterizada por ser uma desordem granulomatosa, fibrosa, e segmentar. Portanto, devido à dificuldade de se entender a sua etiologia e à falta de dados adequados correspondentes à sua incidência, em alguns casos o tratamento nem sempre é adequado. Dessa forma, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo relatar um caso de doença de Crohn em adulto, e também expandir o conhecimento com relação a essa patologia.

Published: January 2019

O envelhecimento populacional é um fenômeno mundial, com importantes conseqüências sociais e de saúde pública. O aumento da representatividade populacional dos idosos tem sido acompanhado de estudos sobre fatores demográficos, epidemiológicos e genéticos sobre o envelhecimento. Esta investigação teve o objetivo de analisar aspectos associados à longevidade no município de Santa Inês-Bahia, que apresenta a taxa mais elevada de idosos no estado. Foi realizado estudo caso-controle de amostra aleatoria de indivíduos jovens, idosos e longevos que responderam questionário sobre dados genéticos, de saúde e habitos de vida. Adicionalmente, foi realizado o teste de micronúcleo e alterações nucleares, como indicativos da ocorrência de danos celulares no envelhecimento. Os resultados indicam tendências demográficas associadas ao declínio da população mais jovem em relação aos idosos, assim como a influência de características multifatoriais, como bons hábitos de vida, dieta hipocalórica e história familial de longevidade, o que favorece um envelhecimento saudável.

Animais são coisas que possuimos e que têm apenas valor extrínseco, ou condicional como meios para nossos fins. Podemos, por uma questão de escolha pessoal, agregar mais valor aos nossos animais de companhia, como cães e os gatos, mas, no que concerne à lei, mesmo esses animais não são nada mais do que mercadorias...
