    Dans son dernier livre intitulé Pränatale Zeiten (Les temps prénataux), Caroline Arni s’attèle à défaire toutes les évidences sur les prémices de l’existence humaine. Comment, s’interroge l’historienne, les médecins, physiologues et psychologues du xixe siècle ont-ils appréhendé cette phase aux aurores de la vie, qu’ils qualifient de « prénatale » et qui semble façonner la destinée de tout individu ? À l’aide du terme « das Ungeborene » (le « non-né » ou « à naître »), une notion volontaireme..

    Gebärende unter Beobachtung. Die Rolle der observation in der Etablierung der wissenschaftlichen Geburtshilfe in Frankreich (1750–1830)

    Grundlage meiner Dissertation ist ein Korpus von 278 geburtshilflichen Fallberichten – sogenannten observations –, die zwischen 1750 und 1830 von französischen Ärzten und Chirurgen verfasst und in medizinischen Fachzeitschriften veröffentlicht wurden. Als Zeugnisse vergangener geburtshilflicher Praktiken sind diese observations wertvolle Quellen für die Medizin- und Kulturgeschichte der Geburt. Sie geben Auskunft über einen medizinischen Paradigmenwechsel : War die Geburtshilfe bis dato noch ..

    The Relationship Between Grey Matter Volume and Clinical and Functional Outcomes in People at Clinical High Risk for Psychosis

    Objective: To examine the association between baseline alterations in grey matter volume (GMV) and clinical and functional outcomes in people at clinical high risk (CHR) for psychosis. Methods: 265 CHR individuals and 92 healthy controls were recruited as part of a prospective multi-center study. After a baseline assessment using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), participants were followed for at least two years to determine clinical and functional outcomes, including transition to psychosis (according to the Comprehensive Assessment of an At Risk Mental State, CAARMS), level of functioning (according to the Global Assessment of Functioning), and symptomatic remission (according to the CAARMS). GMV was measured in selected cortical and subcortical regions of interest (ROI) based on previous studies (ie orbitofrontal gyrus, cingulate gyrus, gyrus rectus, inferior temporal gyrus, parahippocampal gyrus, striatum, and hippocampus). Using voxel-based morphometry, we analysed the relationship between GMV and clinical and functional outcomes. Results: Within the CHR sample, a poor functional outcome (GAF < 65) was associated with relatively lower GMV in the right striatum at baseline (P <. 047 after Family Wise Error correction). There were no significant associations between baseline GMV and either subsequent remission or transition to psychosis. Conclusions: In CHR individuals, lower striatal GMV was associated with a poor level of overall functioning at follow-up. This finding was not related to effects of antipsychotic or antidepressant medication. The failure to replicate previous associations between GMV and later psychosis onset, despite studying a relatively large sample, is consistent with the findings of recent large-scale multi-center studies

    Recent years have seen considerable progress in epidemiological and molecular genetic research into environmental and genetic factors in schizophrenia, but methodological uncertainties remain with regard to validating environmental exposures, and the population risk conferred by individual molecular genetic variants is small. There are now also a limited number of studies that have investigated molecular genetic candidate gene-environment interactions (G Ă— E), however, so far, thorough replication of findings is rare and G Ă— E research still faces several conceptual and methodological challenges. In this article, we aim to review these recent developments and illustrate how integrated, large-scale investigations may overcome contemporary challenges in G Ă— E research, drawing on the example of a large, international, multi-center study into the identification and translational application of G Ă— E in schizophrenia. While such investigations are now well underway, new challenges emerge for G Ă— E research from late-breaking evidence that genetic variation and environmental exposures are, to a significant degree, shared across a range of psychiatric disorders, with potential overlap in phenotyp
