Válvulas de Ahmed em doentes com Polineuropatia Amiloidótica Familiar

2016

Objetivo: Avaliar os resultados clínicos dos doentes com glaucoma secundário à Polineuropatia Amiloidótica Familiar (PAF) submetidos a implante de válvula de Ahmed no Serviço de Oftalmologia do CHP entre Novembro de 2010 e Fevereiro de 2015. Material e Métodos: Estudo retrospetivo de 37 doentes (47 olhos) com o follow-up mínimo de 6 meses. Definiu-se sucesso cirúrgico relativo como pressão intraocular (PIO) ≥6 mmHg e ≤21 mmHg ou redução de 20% da PIO, com ou sem medicação ou reoperação. Sucesso cirúrgico absoluto foi definido como a obtenção dos mesmos resultados, mas sem recurso a medicação ou cirurgia adicional. Foram analisadas variáveis demográficas, PIO no 1º dia, 1ª e 2ª semanas, 1º, 2º, 3º e 6º meses, 1º ano e à data da última consulta, acuidade visual pré e 1 mês após cirurgia, número de anti-glaucomatosos pré e pós cirurgia, entre outras. Resultados: A PIO pré-operatória média foi de 27,53±7,48 e a pós-operatória foi de 15,29±4,37 (6º mês), p<0,01. A média de fármacos di...

Exposing therapists to trauma-focused treatment in psychosis: effects on credibility, expected burden, and harm expectancies

European journal of psychotraumatology, 2016

Despite robust empirical support for the efficacy of trauma-focused treatments, the dissemination proves difficult, especially in relation to patients with comorbid psychosis. Many therapists endorse negative beliefs about the credibility, burden, and harm of such treatment. This feasibility study explores the impact of specialized training on therapists' beliefs about trauma-focused treatment within a randomized controlled trial. Therapist-rated (n=16) credibility, expected burden, and harm expectancies of trauma-focused treatment were assessed at baseline, post-theoretical training, post-technical training, post-supervised practical training, and at 2-year follow-up. Credibility and burden beliefs of therapists concerning the treatment of every specific patient in the trial were also assessed. Over time, therapist-rated credibility of trauma-focused treatment showed a significant increase, whereas therapists' expected burden and harm expectancies decreased significantly. I...

现代舞训练与弦乐训练对脑灰质体积的差异影响

Advances in Psychological Science, 2018

The discrepant effects of dance and music training on gray matter volume are still unknown. In this study, We used voxel-based morphometry (VBM) method to analyze the structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) data of modern dancers, string instrument players and controls subjects. Our results showed increased gray matter volume (GMV) among cortical, subcortical and the cerebellum areas within the modern dancers and localized cortical regions in the string instrument players respectively. Moreover, among the three groups only modern dancers showed decreased GMV between cortical and subcortical regions. The results suggested a systematical and widespread effects of modern dance training as well as an effector-specific training outcome in the auditory-motor-semantic cortex of the string instrument players.

The Psychic Structure and Applied Values of Social Self Under the Framework of Analytical Psychology and Chinese Culture

Theory and Practice of Psychological Counseling, 2020

This paper probes into three parts. Firstly, bewriting the occurrence and development of the concept of "social self " in social psychology. Secondly, expounding the concept of Persona in Jung psychology has a narrow definition and a broad definition. The narrow definition refers to the persona archetype in the collective unconscious, which is the extrovert attitude of that used to reconcile individual and collective, the subject and the external object. The broad definition refers to the social roles of the individual, the presentation of the social identity systems, as a subpersonality located on the surface of personality. Thirdly, according to the topography of "collective unconscious, cultural unconscious, individual unconscious, individual consciousness", this paper tries to amplicate the psychic structure of social self under the framework of Analytical Psychology and Chinese culture. It includes four parts: Being born in the archetype of persona and taking it as a collective unconscious basis; a cultural unconscious part connected to the spiritual and SHE god, individual and
