RESUMO

PURPOSE: Over the last few years, disordered eating in athletes has received increasing attention. According to several studies, athletes could be more vulnerable to disordered eating and some characteristics specific to the athletic community could be in favour of an increased risk of poor body image and disturbed eating habits in athletes. However, the literature is sparse and some methodological issues in studies have been pointed out. In this context, we aimed at determining the prevalence of disordered eating in French high-level athletes using clinical interviews of three different clinicians and identifying what are the factors associated with disordered eating in athletes. METHODS: In France, all athletes registered on the French high-level list have to undergo a yearly evaluation. Data collected during the somatic assessment, the dietary consultation, and the psychological of the yearly evaluation were used. Multivariate analysis was performed for identification of factors associated with disordered eating. RESULTS: Out of the 340 athletes included, 32.9% have been detected with a disordered eating. They were difficult to detect by clinicians, as usual criteria did not seem to be reliable for athletes. Competing in sports emphasizing leanness or low body weight was associated with disordered eating; however, gender was not. CONCLUSION: These results highlight the need for the development of specific screening tools for high-level athletes. Furthermore, the identification of factors associated with disordered eating could improve early detection and prevention program effectiveness.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: French legislation makes mandatory for healthcare providers the disclosure of hospital infection (HI) risk and actual occurrence to the patient. Given the specific diseases encountered in psychiatry, some difficulties may be expected in practical application of this regulation. OBJECTIVES: The aim of our study was to describe the knowledge, declared practices and opinions of healthcare workers (HCW) in psychiatry concerning information for patients about HI. METHODS: We randomly selected doctors, nurses and head nurses from four hospitals with psychiatric activity in Normandy. The HCW were asked to self-complete an anonymous questionnaire, including data describing the responding HCW and questions aiming at describing his/her knowledge, attitude in routine daily practice and opinion about information to patients about HI. RESULTS: One hundred and forty-one HCW were initially selected, of which 114 (80.9%) eventually agreed to complete the questionnaire. Only eight HCW (7.0%) were considered to have a correct overall knowledge of legal obligations. Main errors concerned the obligation to inform the patient of the HI risk according to the medical procedures that are to be performed (43.9% of correct answers) and the obligation to inform the patient of the HI risk according to his/her medical condition (46.5%). The obligation to inform the patient of the occurrence of a HI was largely known (84.2%). HCW usually giving information about the risk of HI to patients without HI accounted for 5.3%. Main reasons advocated for not informing patients were a low level risk of HI in psychiatry (80.4%) and the lack of patients' demand (59.8%). In the case of HI occurrence, the percentage of HCW routinely informing patients was 13.2%. HCW systematically informing the patient's family about the occurrence of HI accounted for 9.6%. A large proportion of HCW supported delivering information to patients about HI (86.0%). HCW expected from information better approval of prevention programs by the patients (87.7%) but feared an increased anxiety in patients (75.4%) and a higher rate of care refusal (48.2%). CONCLUSION: Whereas a very large proportion of HCW in psychiatry support delivering information to patients about HI, our study shows HCW's lack of awareness of regulations and lack of declared practices. Among factors explaining this contrast, a lower perceived HI risk and severity level are to be mentioned. Training programs focusing on risk and mechanisms of HI could be offered to professionals in psychiatry. The issue of specific communication difficulties with psychiatric patients should be addressed as well. In order to develop information on HI, specific methods suited to those patients should be developed.

RESUMO

Although informing patients about medical risks is said to decrease the number of malpractice claims, most inpatients receive no information about hospital infection. Using a self-administered questionnaire, we surveyed 1270 healthcare workers randomly selected from 22 French hospitals to assess their opinion on information for patients about hospital infection risks, and their practice of informing patients with, or without, hospital infection. The influence of healthcare worker characteristics on opinion and practice was assessed using logistic regression. Response rate was 87.2%. Although 85.4% supported giving more information, only 17.0% routinely informed non-infected patients and 31.6% informed infected patients about infection. Attitudes were influenced by healthcare worker characteristics and environmental factors. Knowledge of obligations influenced practice when informing non-infected patients, but not those with hospital-acquired infection. Further research is needed to help healthcare professionals improve risk communication and disclosure of hospital infection.

RESUMO

To explore the evolution of a human impacted river, the Seine (France), over the 21st century, three driving factors were examined: climate, agriculture, and point source inputs of domestic and industrial origin. Three future scenarios were constructed, by modification of a baseline representative of recent conditions. A climate change scenario, based on simulations by a general circulation model driven by the SRES-A2 scenario of radiative forcing, accounts for an average warming of +3.3 degrees C over the watershed and marked winter increase and summer decrease in precipitation. To illustrate a possible reduction in nitrate pollution from agricultural origin, a scenario of good agricultural practices was considered, introducing catch crops and a 20% decrease in nitrogen fertilisation. Future point source pollution was estimated following the assumptions embedded in scenario SRES-A2 regarding demographic, economic and technologic changes, leading to reductions of 30 to 75% compared to 2000, depending on the pollutants. Four models, addressing separate components of the river system (agronomical model, hydrogeological model, land surface model and water quality model), were used to analyse the relative impact of these scenarios on water quality, in light of their impact on hydrology and crop production. The first-order driving factor of water quality over the 21st century is the projected reduction of point source pollution, inducing a noticeable decrease in eutrophication and oxygen deficits downstream from Paris. The impact of climate change on these terms is driven by the warming of the water column. It enhances algal growth in spring and the loss factors responsible for phytoplankton mortality in late summer (grazers and viruses). In contrast, increased seasonal contrasts in river discharge have a negligible impact on river water quality, as do the changes in riverine nitrate concentration, which never gets limiting. The latter changes have a similar magnitude under the three scenarios. Under climate change, riverine and groundwater nitrate concentrations increase and crop production is advantaged with reduced growing cycles and increased yields. In contrast, nitrate concentrations decrease under the good agricultural practices scenario, with a limited decrease in crop production. When these two scenarios are combined, the changes in nitrate concentrations balance each other and crop yields increase. The results of this numerical exercise indicate that the potential changes to the Seine River system during the 21st century will not lead to severely degraded water quality.

RESUMO

AIM: Because of the heterogeneity of schizophrenia, this study researched different cognitive patterns in distinct subtypes of schizophrenic patients. METHODS: Thirty-five Diagnostic and Statistical Manual IV (DSM IV) schizophrenic patients and 35 healthy controls were included. Patients were categorized into deficit, disorganized and positive subtypes with the schedule for the deficit syndrome (SDS) and the positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS). Executive/attentional functions were assessed with the modified card sorting test (MCST), a test of verbal fluency, the trail making test (TMT) and the Stroop color-word test (Stroop test). Episodic memory was explored through the California verbal learning test (CVLT). RESULTS: The positive subtype had some executive/attentional (fluency and Stroop tests) and mnesic performances in the normal range, suggesting the preservation of good cognitive skills. In contrast, the deficit and disorganized subtypes had major mnesic and executive/attentional dysfunctions compared to healthy subjects. The deficit subtype compared to the control group performed predominantly worse on the MCST and fluency, whereas the disorganized subtype had the lowest scores on the TMT and the Stroop test. CONCLUSION: This study showed distinct cognitive patterns in deficit, disorganized and positive patients in comparison with the controls, suggesting a heterogeneous cognitive dysfunction in schizophrenia.

RESUMO

We have analyzed eye movement performances in schizophrenics showing primary negative or deficit symptoms (n=16) and non-deficit schizophrenics (n=55), and compared them with those of controls (n=34) in order to study the relationships between negative symptoms and eye movement abnormalities. Patients were subtyped into deficit and non-deficit subgroups using the Schedule for the Deficit Syndrome. Three oculomotor paradigms were used: smooth pursuit, a reflexive saccade paradigm and an antisaccadic task. The smooth pursuit gain was significantly decreased (and the rate of catch-up saccades increased) in schizophrenics as compared with controls, but no difference was observed between patient groups. In the reflexive saccade paradigm, no difference was found between controls and patients, except for latency in deficit patients. In the antisaccade paradigm, the number of errors and the latency of successful antisaccades were significantly increased in schizophrenics as compared with controls. The latency of successful antisaccades in both directions was significantly increased in deficit patients as compared with non-deficit patients. The latency of rightward successful antisaccades was significantly increased as compared with the latency of leftward antisaccades in deficit patients only. However, when patients were classified into negative and non-negative groups using the PANSS, no difference was found in the antisaccade paradigm. Smooth pursuit impairment does not seem to depend on the primary enduring negative symptoms.In deficit schizophrenics, the abnormalities observed in the antisaccadic task are consistent with prefrontal dysfunction, and may suggest parietal lobe dysfunction as well.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Retroperitoneoscopy (RPS) is a form of direct vision endoscopy, used to explore the retroperitoneal space, and was first described by Bartel in 1969. METHODS: RPS was performed prospectively to diagnose infiltrating retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy or masses when needle aspiration biopsy under computed tomographic guidance (NABCT) failed to establish a definite diagnosis. RESULTS: From May 1985 to August 1995, RPS was performed in 118 patients (121 procedures). Mean hospital stay was 2.4 (range 2-5) days. The peroperative and perioperative morbidity rate was 6.6 per cent of the procedures. A precise diagnosis was obtained in 108 of the 118 patients. The sensitivity was 84 per cent for malignant lymphoma, 94 per cent for Hodgkin's lymphoma, 95 per cent for metastatic lymph nodes of carcinomas and 100 per cent for primary retroperitoneal tumours. The overall sensitivity was 91.5 per cent. CONCLUSION: RPS is an alternative procedure to NABCT when aspiration biopsy is not technically feasible because a lesion is too small to sample or failed to establish a precise histopathological diagnosis.

RESUMO

Coined by Sifneos in 1972, alexithymia refers to a relative narrowing in emotional functioning, an inability to find appropriate words to describe their emotions, and a poverty of fantasy life. Although initially described in the context of psychosomatic illness, alexithymic characteristics may be observed in patients with a wide range of medical and psychiatric disorders: Parkinson disease, depression, anxiety, substance abuse and eating disorders. Flattening of affect and poverty of speech, major negative symptoms, referred to chronic schizophrenia: there is a lack of outward display of emotions. Accordingly, some disturbances of alexithymia's scores would be expected in schizophrenic patients. The aims of this study were: first to establish some correlations between alexithymia and some symptoms of schizophrenia, and second to estimate the intensity of alexithymia in negative versus positive and undifferentiated schizophrenic patients. Twenty-nine patients, meeting DSM III-R criteria for schizophrenia have been studied. All of them treated by neuroleptics, were in a stable clinical status for at least one month. The patients were assessed by one trained psychiatrist (IN) using six rating scales: Beth Israel Questionnaire (BIQ) for alexithymia, Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS), Depressive Retardation Rating Scale (DRRS), Montgomery and Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS), revised Physical Anhedonia Scale (PAS), and finally, Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale (ESRS). In the total sample, the mean score of BIQ was 4.79 +/- 1.68 (mean +/- SD). Significant correlations were found between alexithymia and blunted affect (r = 0.376; p < 0.05), poverty of speech (r = 0.471; p < 0.01), anxiety (r = 0.370; p < 0.05), total score of DRRS (r = 0.370; p < 0.05), and motor subscore of DRRS (r = 0.429; p < 0.05). The patients with negative symptoms of schizophrenia had significantly higher total scores in alexithymia (p < 0.05), blunted affect (p < 0.0001), poverty of speech (p < 0.0001), anxiety (p < 0.05), total score of DRRS (p = 0.01) and his motor subscore (p < 0.0001) as compared to positive and undifferentiated subtypes. In our study, alexithymia seems to be correlated with negative and depressive symptoms in negative forms of schizophrenia, regardless of medication status.

RESUMO

Lumboscopy is an endoscopic surgical technique providing direct visualization of the retroperitoneal space from the kidney hilium to the iliac bifurcation. We report our 10-year experience with this technique used to diagnose masses in the retroperitoneal space. This method is not very invasive and the morbidity is low. The sensitivity is greater than needle biopsy under CT guidance.

RESUMO

Coined by Sifneos in 1972, alexithymia refers to a relative narrowing in emotional functioning, an inability to find appropriate words to describe their emotions and, a poverty of fantasy life. Although initially described in the context of psychosomatic illness, alexithymic characteristics may be observed in patients with a wide range of medical and psychiatric disorders: Parkinson disease, depression, anxiety, substance abuse and eating disorders. Flattening of affect and poverty of speech, major negative symptoms, referred to chronic schizophrenia: there is a lack of outward display of emotion. Accordingly, some disturbances of alexithymia's scores would be expected in schizophrenic patients. The purpose of this study was to estimate and compare the prevalence of alexithymia in deficit and non-deficit schizophrenia. The term "deficit symptoms" may be used as Carpenter, to refer specifically to those negative symptoms that are not considered secondary. The influence of patients' symptoms has also been studied on alexithymia scores: negative and positive symptoms of schizophrenia, depression, anxiety, anhedonia and effects of neuroleptics. Twenty-five patients, meeting DSM III-R criteria for schizophrenia have been studied. All of them treated by neuroleptics, were in a stable clinical status for at least one month. The patients have been categorized into deficit (n = 12) and non-deficit (n = 13) subgroups by one trained psychiatrist (SD), using the Schedule for the Deficit Syndrome. The subjects have been assessed by the same rater (IN), blind to deficit status, using six rating scales: Beth Israel Questionnaire (BIQ) and Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS) for alexithymia, Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS), Montgomery and Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS), revised Physical Anhedonia Scale (PAS), and finally, Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale (ESRS). Using TAS, alexithymic characteristics were more prevalent in the deficit subgroup as compared to non-deficit subgroup (83% versus 30.76%; p < 0.01). Significant correlations were observed in the non-deficit subgroup between: TAS and anxiety (r = 0.743; p < 0.01), TAS and depression (r = 0.568; p < 0.05), BIQ and blunted affect (r = 0.636; p < 0.02), BIQ and poverty of speech (r = 0.629; p < 0.02). These correlations were not significant in the deficit group of patients. Alexithymia in schizophrenic patients seems to be a trait characteristic in deficit patients, and a state related to many symptoms, such as flattening of affect, poverty of speech, depression and anxiety in nondeficit patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In view of the surgical lymphadenectomy morbidity and of the low accuracy of the preoperatory radiological investigations, minimal access surgery procedures are needed to assess lymph node involvement in pelvic cancers. METHODS: Extraperitoneal pelvioscopy (EPP) is a direct vision endoscopy permitting the exploration of the retroperitoneal space of the pelvic area. Beginning 1/05/1995, 235 patients with apparently resectable tumors underwent EPP for lymph node staging of 133 bladder, 89 prostate, 12 cervix, and one endometrium cancers. RESULTS: Lymph node involvement was discovered in 68 cases; the absence of lymph node involvement was demonstrated in 155 cases; and there were 12 false-negative results of the procedure. The feasibility was of 98.3%. The global sensitivity and accuracy were, respectively, 85% and 94%. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that EPP is a safe and accurate procedure to evaluate the lymph node status of pelvic cancers.

RESUMO

The frequency of lung cancers associated with synchronous head and neck malignancies can be evaluated between 1.5 to 2%. The purpose of our work was to determine if complete endoscopic head and neck examination performed under general anesthesia was superior than clinical head and neck examination for the diagnosis of these synchronous additional tumors. From july 1991 to august 1992, we realised a prospective study on 58 consecutive patients suffering from pulmonary removable lung cancers. All the patients had a clinical head and neck examination during the preoperative period. Immediately before thoracotomy a complete endoscopy of head and neck aerian and digestive tract was performed. During this last examination 18 new macroscopical lesions were discovered in 13 patients: benign lesions (n = 17), oral cavity and laryngeal dysplasia (n = 1). The one gingivolingual sulcus carcinoma, already discovered by the clinical examination, was confirmed. This study suggests that complete head and neck endoscopy is not superior than clinical examination for the diagnosis of synchronous malignancies before lung cancers removal.

RESUMO

Iliac retroperitoneoscopy, also called extraperitoneal pelviscopy (EPP), is a form of direct vision endoscopy derived from mediastinoscopy; It allows biopsies of pelvic lymph nodes. In view of the poor accuracy of radiological investigations for pelvic lymph node metastasis (N+) detection, EPP was performed in 210 patients with apparently resectable neoplasms (bladder n = 116, prostate n = 81, cervix n = 12, endometrium n = 1). Among 174 patients without radiologic evidence of metastasis (N-), EPP assessed 47 N+ patients and failed in 1 case, requiring a laparotomy (one N+ patient). Among 36 N+ patients after radiologic examinations, EPP assessed 20 N- patients and failed in 1 case, requiring a laparotomy (one N+ patient). Among 124 N- patients after EPP, a further laparotomy showed 8 N+ cases (false negative). Thus, out of 210 patients, EPP corrected the radiologic findings in 67 cases and drastically modified the therapeutic indications. Considering its absence of contraindications, EPP can be performed more often than laparoscopic pelvic lymphadenectomy techniques. Furthermore, its exploration field is not limited to the interiliac area. Its overall reliability is 95% in staging lymph node involvement of pelvic neoplasms.

RESUMO

Since the Bleuler's early writings, studies in schizophrenia have often shown a frequent occurrence of depression in the context of schizophrenia and also its implications for the morbidity and mortality of schizophrenic patients. The wide variability in the prevalence of depression (between 7 to 70% in post-psychotic period) is due in part to the difficulty in clearly separating depressive symptoms from akinesia induced by neuroleptic or negative symptoms and to the lack of a valid assessment of depressive symptoms in schizophrenic patients. Under these conditions, a better understanding of depressive symptomatology in schizophrenia seems to be necessary to go further in this area of research with clinical and therapeutical purposes. The "Echelle de Ralentissement Dépressif" (ERD, Widlöcher, 1983) was studied in a sample of 53 schizophrenic patients to determinate whether ERD composed of three subscores (motor, ideic and subjective) could be able to evaluate the subjective depressive symptomatology and whether its measure would be independent of negative symptoms or akinesia. Pearson's correlations and correlations with variables partialled out were used to compare ERD to Montgomery and Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS, 1979) and to establish their relationship with Positive And Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS< Kay, 1987) and an Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale (ESRS, Chouinard & Ross-Chouinard, 1980). Fifty three in or outpatients (35 males and 18 females, mean age +/- standard deviation = 38.26 +/- 9.82) were evaluated in a stable condition (i.e., when the psychotic symptomatology and the neuroleptic treatment have been stabilized since 4 weeks). According to DESM III-R criteria, 49 patients met the diagnosis of schizophrenia (2 schizoaffective disorders and 2 schizophreniform disorders).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

RESUMO

Sixty-five patients, aged 15 to 65 years, including 48 men (73.8%), were operated on for pulmonary (60) or endobronchial (5) hamartoma: there were 36 enucleations, 17 lobectomies (1 sleeve resection), 7 wedge resections, 4 segmentectomies, and 1 pneumonectomy. The average tumor diameter was between 2 and 4 cm; 15 were calcified. All were benign. Two were parts of an incomplete Carney's triad. Eight were associated with carcinomas, and three of these were bronchial carcinomas. Concerning these latter three tumors, a study of the incidence tables for northern France and of the standardized mortality ratio showed that the risk of bronchial cancer developing in patients with hamartoma, after a sufficient follow-up (61 patients), was multiplied by 6.66, and the chi 2 test showed a significant difference of incidence compared with that in the general population (p < 0.001). It is concluded that patients with hamartoma should be submitted to a complete evaluation and to a regular follow-up.
