En el presente artículo, reflexiono acerca de la actual clínica de adolescentes. En ella nos encontramos frecuentemente con fenómenos psicosomáticos, con cuerpos que parecieran expresar lo que no se integra en el discurso. Esto me lleva a plantear que en esta clínica actual nos enfrentamos a nuevas demandas, para las cuales hay que buscar nuevas respuestas; postulo a través de algunas viñetas clínicas que es a través del cuerpo donde podemos encontrar el camino para encontrar dichas respuestas.(AU)

In the present article, I reflect about the present clinic for adolescents. In this, we frequently meet with psychosomatic phenomena, with bodies that seem to express what is not integrated in the speech. This situation, makes me to set out that in this present clinic, we face to new demands, for which we have to look for new answers. I propose by means of some clinical devices, that it is through the body where we can find the way to meet such responses.(AU)

The aim of this study was to measure implant stability quotient (ISQ) values in grafted sites during 5 years of follow-up. Sixteen patients received a total of 36 implants inserted in sites treated with autologous bone (group A) or porcine bone in addition to autologous bone (group B). In both groups, resonance frequency analysis (RFA) values increased during the observation period. At 2 months, statistical analysis showed significantly lower ISQ values for group B than for group A (P = .0134) and significantly higher ISQ values in the mandible than in the maxilla (P = .0251). RFA measurements suggested stable long-term results for implants inserted in both groups.

ISSUE ADDRESSED: The mechanisms underlying the relationship between television (TV) viewing and weight status in preschool aged children are not well understood. This study aimed to explore the relationships between preschool children's TV viewing habits (i.e. time spent viewing, content watched and foods eaten while viewing), daily food intake, general physical activity levels and their body mass index (BMI). METHOD: A cross-sectional sample of preschool children in Melbourne (n = 135). Mothers of preschoolers completed a 3-day TV diary; information was collected on viewing time, content and food consumed while watching TV. Mothers also reported their child's height, weight and physical activity behaviour. Associations between study and outcome variables were determined by bivariate correlations and hierarchical regression analyses. RESULTS: Mean age of preschoolers was 4.5 years and 14% were overweight or obese. The mean daily time spent watching TV was 90.7 minutes (SD 50.7) A small, positive correlation was found between viewing TV on weekdays and child BMIz, (p<0.05). This effect was moderate when controlled for total kilojoules consumed while watching TV (on weekdays) and number of minutes spent in sedentary activities (across three days). CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that TV viewing may affect preschool child weight status through displacement of physical activity or eating while viewing.

There are many challenges in developing evidence-based physical activity guidelines for preschoolers that can ensure health benefits for children. Guidelines for the preschool years have recently been developed in several countries, but there are notable inconsistencies in the amount of physical activity regarded as sufficient for this age group. Given the currently high prevalence of childhood obesity, there is an urgent need for evidence-based studies to inform the development of community-targeted programs to ensure healthy levels of physical activity in young children. Our article outlines the global recommendations for physical activity for children ≤ 5 years of age. We identify gaps in the literature and suggest recommendations for future research and public health policy.

To the authors' knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate maternal child feeding practices, maternal parenting characteristics and mother-child interactions as cross-sectional predictors of child eating and/or weight within the one sample. Maternal pressure for her child to eat was a significant positive correlate of fussiness and a negative correlate of enjoyment. Maternal parenting warmth was associated negatively with child BMIz, while mother-child dysfunctional interaction was associated positively with child BMIz. Our findings suggest that childhood obesity research may be better informed by evaluating not just what mothers do (feeding practices) but also how they parent (parenting behaviours and interactions with their child). Longitudinal studies are needed to identify causal influences of parenting on preschool child eating and weight.

El propósito de la investigación fue la exploración de factores emocionales en adolescentes que presentan obesidad y a raíz de los hallazgos encontrados hacer recomendaciones psicoterapéuticas. Para conocer la vida emocional y las relaciones significativas de estos adolescentes se aplicaron cuatro instrumentos diagnósticos: Entrevista clínica, TRO, PBI y OQ45, a dos grupos de adolescentes con y sin diagnóstico de obesidad, grupo de estudio y grupo de control respectivamente, con un n= 25. Los resultados de esta investigación muestran que los adolescentes obesos presentan tanto sintomatología psíquica, ansiedad y depresión, como una dificultad en la tolerancia y manejo de afectos intensos relacionada con fallas anteriores provenientes del contexto parental.
The purpose of the research was to explore emotional factors in adolescents with obesity and according to the findings to make psychotherapeutic recommendations. To know the emotional life and significant relationships of these adolescents four diagnostic instruments were applied: a clinical interview, TRO, PBI and OQ45, on two groups of adolescents (with and without obesity diagnosis, study group and control group respectively), with an n=25. The results showed that obese adolescents presented psychological symptoms, anxiety and depression, as well as a difficulty tolerating and handling intense emotions related to previous failures coming from the parental context.
