Group process in the university on strike, and individual resolution	In the middle of a university teachers’ strike, a group of clinical psychology students in the group analysis program (called « Group, Family, Institution ») of the University of Paris-Descartes was invited to reflect on their experience and to try and articulate it using the concepts of theoreticians of group analysis and institutional analysis (Anzieu, Kaës, Rouchy, Bion, etc.). Several of those papers were accepted by this publication. From general assembly meetings and lecture courses to small informal groups, and at the request of groups and institutions outside the University (internships in particular), these articles offer a rich reflection « from the inside » on that crisis. Here is an original experiential overview which gives a new perspective on situations usually known, above all, through their ideological developments. These texts demonstrate the capacity for working things out that students may acquire when previously sensitized to the existence and function of the unconscious processes which are active in many situations.
Les lots virtuels « empilés » : repères de bonnes affaires pour les consommateurs !
Authors: Labbé-Pinlon Blandine , Lombart Cindy , Louis Didier 
Published: February 2011

Résumé Cette recherche analyse les réactions des consommateurs face à deux types de lots virtuels empilés fréquemment utilisés tant par les industriels que par les distributeurs : les lots « 3 pour 2 » combinés à un prix choc versus une gratuité. Une expérimentation menée en magasin laboratoire montre que les lots virtuels de produits bénéficiant d’un prix choc sont mieux perçus que ceux assortis d’une gratuité. En outre, ils attirent plus d’acheteurs et induisent des volumes d’achats en promotion plus importants.

Résumé Parmi les utilisations du budget par les associations du spectacle vivant, quelles sont celles qui relèvent d’un usage politique externe dans le cadre des relations avec les collectivités, celles qui correspondent à un usage instrumental interne et quel est le « dosage » entre ces deux types d’utilisations ? Telle est la question à laquelle cet article répond, d’abord de manière théorique, puis de manière pratique, au moyen de l’étude de deux cas de théâtres associatifs.
Phacoemulsification in Eyes with Neovascular AMD Treated with Anti-VEGF Injections
Authors: Muzyka-Woźniak Maria 
Published: February 2011

Purpose. To evaluate visual results of phacoemulsification in eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) treated with anti–vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) intravitreal injections. Methods. This retrospective noncomparative interventional case-series study assessed best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at 4 timepoints: 1) baseline, immediately before first anti-VEGF injection; 2) preoperative, immediately before phacoemulsification; 3) postoperative, 1 month after phacoemulsification; 4) endpoint, at the last visit. Anti-VEGF retreatment regimen was based only on optical coherence tomography. The median time between anti-VEGF injections was evaluated for the time period before and after phacoemulsification. Results. Sixteen eyes of 16 patients were included. The median (range) baseline, preoperative, post-operative, and endpoint BCVA was 0.7 (0.3–1.3), 0.72 (0.4–1.3), 0.5 (0.05–1.0), and 0.36 (0.0–1.0) logMAR, respectively. Best-corrected visual acuity significantly improved after phacoemulsification (mean 3 logMAR lines) and remained stable during follow-up (median 14 months, range 7–28). There was no statistically significant difference in the median time interval between injections before phacoemulsification and after phacoemulsification. Conclusions. Phacoemulsification significantly improved BCVA in patients with choroidal neovascular AMD. This effect persisted during follow-up with no increased need for anti-VEGF injections to keep macula dry.

Purpose We report our experience in creating a composite loop of transposed superficial femoral vein (tSFV) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) synthetic graft for lower limb access. The indication for surgery was exhaustion of access sites in both upper limbs. Methods Surgery was performed on 3 male patients. All patients had an ankle brachial index ≥0.9. The SFV was mobilized up to adductor canal, with ligation of all small tributary branches, up to the level below the profunda femoral vein, then tunneled medially to the skin. A 6–mm PTFE graft was tunneled laterally, deep in the subcutaneous plane in loop fashion to the end of the tSFV, where a beveled end-to-end anastomosis was created. Results The blood flow in both fistulas increased gradually to 0.7–1.3 l/min postoperatively. No clinical manifestation indicative of lower limb ischemia, lymphorrhea, or infection was documented. No signs related to chronic venous hypertension were noticed. Conclusions Our initial experience shows that the creation of a composite PTFE-tSFV conduit is a promising technique, since it can be constructed without compromising the distal perfusion, and without infectious complications.

AbstractCarbimazole (CMZ) and its active metabolite methimazole (MMI) are antithyroid medications, which can result in MMI/CMZ embryopathy in susceptible individuals. The incidence of birth defects related to MMI/CMZ embryopathy remains unclear as several epidemiologic studies failed to prove a correlation, despite positive case–control studies and numerous case reports. Malformations reported in exposed individuals and commonly recognized as MMI/CMZ embryopathy include cutis aplasia of the scalp, choanal atresia, esophageal atresia (EA), tracheo‐esophageal fistula (TEF), persistent vitelline duct, athelia/hypothelia, and subtle facial dysmorphisms including sparse or arched eyebrows. Here, we report on individuals with early pregnancy exposure to MMI, with microtia and various other anomalies associated with MMI embryopathy, suggesting that microtia is also seen with increased frequency after prenatal MMI exposure. Additional unusual malformations among our patients include a previously unreported type of TEF with three separate esophageal pouches and a fistula connecting the middle pouch to the trachea in one child, and absence of the gall bladder in another. An enlarged anterior fontanel was seen in three patients, and clinodactyly of the fifth finger was noted in three. The similarities between our three patients with microtia after MMI exposure and the two previously reported with microtia after CMZ exposure support the concept of microtia being related to the MMI/CMZ exposure. Recognition of microtia as a manifestation of MMI/CMZ embryopathy will likely increase the number of diagnosed cases and thus affect ascertainment. We propose diagnostic criteria for MMI/CMZ embryopathy, including the presence of at least one major characteristic finding. © 2011 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Multiple congenital anomalies and developmental delay in a boy associated with a de novo 16p13.3 deletion
Authors: Nelson Marc , Quinonez Shane , Ackley Todd , Iyer Ram K. , Innis Jeffrey W. 
Published: February 2011

AbstractWe describe a patient with multiple congenital anomalies including tracheobronchomalacia, CT‐proven metopic craniosynostosis, glandular hypospadias and severe ventral chordee, torticollis, esotropia, strabismus, fifth finger clinodactyly, hallux valgus, and global developmental delay. Using high resolution chromosomal microarray analysis, we identified a de novo deletion of 555 kb on chromosome 16p13.3, 444 kb telomeric to the CREBBP gene and 623 kb centromeric of PKD1. Review of the literature revealed numerous reports of individuals with deletions involving adjacent regions including CREBBP, but only one overlapping with this isolated region of 16p13.3. Haploinsufficiency for one or more of the 25 candidate genes in the deleted genomic region may be responsible for these clinical features. No copy number variants (CNVs) span the entire region, but several small CNVs within the 555 kb genomic region reduce the likelihood for effects due to haploinsufficiency to 18 genes. © 2011 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

AbstractCantú syndrome, a rare disorder of congenital hypertrichosis, characteristic facial anomalies, cardiomegaly, and osteochondrodysplasia was first described in 1982 by Cantú. Twenty‐three cases of Cantú syndrome have been reported to date. The pathogenesis of this rare autosomal dominant condition is unknown. We describe 10 patients with Cantú syndrome (9 new cases and the long‐term follow‐up of a 10th case reported by Robertson in 1999) comparing the phenotype with that of the previously reported cases. We describe how the distinctive facial appearance evolves with time and report several new findings including recurrent infections with low immunoglobulin levels and gastric bleeding in some of our patients. The cardiac manifestations include patent ductus arteriosus, septal hypertrophy, pulmonary hypertension, and pericardial effusions. They may follow a benign course, but of the 10 cases we report, 4 patients required surgical closure of the patent ductus arteriosus and 1 patient a pericardectomy. Long‐term follow‐up of these patients has shown reassuring neuro‐developmental outcome and the emergence of a behavior phenotype including obsessive traits and anxiety. © 2011 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
The phase behavior and thermal stability of blends of poly(styrene‐co‐methacrylic acid)/poly(styrene‐co‐ 4‐vinylpyridine)
Authors: Benabdelghani Z. , Etxeberria A. 
Published: February 2011

AbstractThe hydrogen bonding and miscibility behaviors of poly(styrene‐co‐methacrylic acid) (PSMA20) containing 20% of methacrylic acid with copolymers of poly(styrene‐co‐4‐vinylpyridine) (PS4VP) containing 5, 15, 30, 40, and 50%, respectively, of 4‐vinylpyridine were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). It was shown that all the blends have a single glass transition over the entire composition range. The obtained Tgs of PSMA20/PS4VP blends containing an excess amount of PS4VP, above 15% of 4VP in the copolymer, were found to be significantly higher than those observed for each individual component of the mixture, indicating that these blends are able to form interpolymer complexes. The FTIR study reveals presence of intermolecular hydrogen‐bonding interaction between vinylpyridine nitrogen atom and the hydroxyl of MMA group and intensifies when the amount of 4VP is increased in PS4VP copolymers. A new band characterizing these interactions at 1724 cm−1 was observed. In addition, the quantitative FTIR study carried out for PSMA20/PS4VP blends was also performed for the methacrylic acid and 4‐vinylpyridine functional groups. The TGA study confirmed that the thermal stability of these blends was clearly improved. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011
Synthesis of NR‐g‐PMMA by “grafting from” method using ATRP process

Published: February 2011

AbstractGrafting poly(methyl methacrylate) or PMMA from natural rubber (NR) using ATRP process, NR has to be transformed into bromoalkyl‐functionalized NR (NRBr) acting as ATRP macroinitiator. The NRBr was prepared by two‐step chemical modification i.e., epoxidation and epoxide ring opening reaction using a nucleophile containing bromine atom such as 2‐bromopropionic acid (A1) and 2‐bromo‐2‐methylpropionic acid (A2). The fixation of A1 and A2 on 4‐methyl‐4‐octene, a model representing one repeat unit of NR, modified by epoxidation was prior studied and it was found that the resulting addition products from A2 using as ATRP initiator for MMA gave a better control of Mn,exp and low PDI of PMMA than that from A1. Then, the NR was transformed into ATRP rubber macroinitiator via epoxidation, followed by epoxide ring addition with only A2. 1H NMR was employed to determine the amount of A2 addition units on NR, which is considered to be the same amount of grafting sites for ATRP of MMA. The grafting of PMMA was then successfully carried out from the NR backbone by ATRP process. The PMMA grafts of the NR‐g‐PMMA were indeed linked to the NR backbone via ester linkage of the A2 unit. The PMMA grafts could be cleaved from the NR backbone by acid hydrolysis, while PMMA grafting by other conventional radical reaction could not be done. Then, the average MW of PMMA grafts after separation using acetone extraction was evaluated. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011
The receptive mind. Too closed? Too open? Psychoanalytic reflections
Authors: Rangell Leo 
Published: February 2011

AbstractThis paper is an expansion of a contribution to a Round Table on “The Closed Mind”, given at the last International Psychoanalytic Congress in Chicago, Illinois. Approaching the subject as an analyst rather than as an advocate, the author broadened the scope of the discussion to span from a mind too closed to one that may be too open, in fact the positives as well as the negatives of each position. Each can be adaptive as well as overdone. An analyst should have the capacity to embrace and contain valid new concepts, as well as the discriminatory ability to consider and reject others not valid or enduring or eligible to advance the field.

Localization of BiP to translating ribosomes increases soluble accumulation of secreted eukaryotic proteins in an Escherichia coli cell‐free system
Authors: Welsh John P. , Bonomo Jeanne , Swartz James R. 
Published: February 2011

AbstractThe endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident Hsp70 chaperone, BiP, docks to the Sec translocon and interacts co‐translationally with polypeptides entering the ER to encourage proper folding. In order to recreate this interaction in Escherichia coli cell‐free protein synthesis (CFPS) reactions, a fusion protein was formed between the ribosome‐binding portion of the E. coli protein trigger factor (TF) and BiP. The biophysical affinity to ribosomes as well as the characteristic Hsp70 ATPase activity were both verified for the fusion protein. When added to E. coli‐based CFPS reactions, the TF–BiP fusion chaperone increased soluble yields of several protein fragments that are normally secreted through the ER and have poor solubility in typical CFPS reactions. For comparison, a fusion between TF and the native E. coli Hsp70, DnaK, was also constructed. This fusion was also biologically active and increased soluble yields of certain protein targets in CFPS. The TF–BiP fusion described in this study can be seen as a first step in reconstituting and better understanding ER folding pathways in the prokaryotic environment of E. coli CFPS. Biotechnol.

Survival of children following Nissen fundoplication
Authors: Wockenforth R , Gillespie C S , Jaffray B 
Published: February 2011

Abstract

Background
Analyses of survival after fundoplication in childhood are often restricted to 30-day mortality, or to the neurologically impaired. The objective of this study was to report actuarial survival and variables associated with mortality for all children undergoing fundoplication.

Methods
This was a prospective observational study of fundoplication surgery by one surgeon; the endpoint was survival. Using a Cox proportional hazards model, gastrostomy, neurological status, tracheostomy, congenital cardiac disease, syndromic status, presence of congenital anomaly, other chronic disease, weight z-score at time of surgery, need for revisional fundoplication, use of laparoscopic surgery, gastric drainage procedures, age and sex were assessed for their influence on survival.

Results
Two-hundred and thirty children underwent 255 fundoplications at a median age of 3·6 years. Forty-six children (20·0 per cent) died during a median follow-up of 2·8 (range 0·5–11·2) years. Statistical modelling showed gastrostomy (relative risk of death 11·04, P &lt; 0·001), cerebral palsy (relative risk 6·58, P = 0·021) and female sex (relative risk 2·12, P = 0·015) to be associated with reduced survival. Revisional fundoplication was associated with improved survival (relative risk of death 0·37, P = 0·037). Survivors had significantly higher weight z-scores (−1·4 versus − 2·9 for those who died; P = 0·001). The 5-year survival rate after fundoplication for children with cerebral palsy and gastrostomy was 59 per cent.

Conclusion
Survival of children following fundoplication is related principally to the presence of a gastrostomy and neurological status. Estimates of children's life expectancy should take account of the poorer survival of neurologically impaired children who undergo fundoplication, presumably due to the related co-morbidities that lead to a gastrostomy.
Extreme Weather Events and the Critical Importance of Anticipatory Adaptation and Organizational Resilience in Responding to Impacts
Authors: Linnenluecke Martina K. , Griffiths Andrew , Winn Monika 
Published: February 2011

ABSTRACTGrowing scientific evidence suggests that more frequent and severe weather extremes such as heat waves, hurricanes, flooding and droughts will have an increasing impact on organizations, industries and entire economies. These findings call for the development of theoretical and practical frameworks to strengthen the capacity of organizations to respond to such impacts. Yet despite the need to understand what is required to build anticipatory adaptation and organizational resilience to expected impacts, the organizational theory literature offers only limited insights. This paper proposes a comprehensive conceptual framework of organizational adaptation and resilience to extreme weather events for addressing the effects of ecological discontinuities in organizational research and strategic decision‐making. Implications and suggestions for future research are offered. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment.
Predictors of recidivism by stalkers: A nine‐year follow‐up of police contacts

Published: February 2011

AbstractIn a subsample of a multisite stalking study (Mohandie, Meloy, McGowan, & Williams, 2006) comprising 78 offenders from one site, 77% committed new offenses within an average follow‐up of 106 months (8.8 years). Over half (56%) were charged for new stalking related offenses and 33% for violent recidivism. Violent reoffending, including sexual offenses, was predicted by risk factors consistent with existing literature: younger age at first conviction, prior release failures, and criminal history. Stalking recidivism was predicted by pre‐index offending scores, using the Cormier–Lang, and prior diagnosis of a mental illness. In addition, stalkers with previously diagnosed mental illness had significantly more police contacts as complainants than those without; their recidivism was also more likely to be non‐violent.

AbstractHigh‐energy gamma radiation from 60Co‐gamma radiation source has been used to covalently link acrylic acid to teflon by mutual radiation grafting technique. Effect of various experimental parameters viz, dose, dose rate, monomer concentration, backbone thickness effect of additives on grafting extent was investigated in order to optimize the conditions for grafting acrylic acid onto teflon to optimum levels. The grafting extent decreased with increasing dose rate and thickness of the substrate while it increased with concentration of acrylic acid and optimum concentration of Mohr's salt. The grafted product was characterized for grafting yield, surface morphology, bulk morphology, and crystallinity change. The SEM studies indicate significant difference in bulk and interface due to change in thickness of the teflon backbone. Dynamic contact angle measurement studies of the grafted and radiation treated teflon showed that initial grafting as well as radiation treatment of teflon enhances its hydrophilicity. © 2011 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Environ Prog, 2012

Published: February 2011

ABSTRACTTo further explore the repertoire of receptors important for the physiology of the peripheral taste system, we conducted a screening for genes encoding G‐protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) expressed in lingual papillae. A total of 13 genes coding for GPCRs belonging to four broad categories were selected as targets to explore their mRNA expression profile by RT–PCR on a panel of mouse tissues. The selected targets comprised seven orphan GPCRs, four fatty acid receptors and two proton‐sensing GPCRs. Several genes were found expressed in taste papillae, with GPR68, GPR120 and GPCR5D displaying somewhat restricted expression patterns. The gene coding for GPR120, a receptor activated by long chain fatty acids, was abundant in circumvallate, foliate and fungiform papillae, making it a particularly interesting candidate. In situ hybridization experiments revealed that GPR120 mRNA is confined to taste buds. Immunohistochemistry on circumvallate papillae sections indicated that GPR120 is present in taste receptor cells as well as in a subset of presynaptic cells. Our results expand the list of GPCRs potentially involved in peripheral gustatory function. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
