Nation et nations au Moyen Ă‚ge
Il peut sembler paradoxal, au moment où l'histoire globale semble conquérir chaque jour un terrain plus vaste, quelle qu'en soit la période, de réfléchir encore à la « nation ». Toutefois, en réponse à une mondialisation vécue comme la dissolution d'entités et d'identités historiques spécifiques et durables, la nation semble ici et là accomplir un retour qui ne pouvait laisser les médiévistes indifférents, tant il est vrai que c'est souvent au Moyen Âge, prétend-on, que les nations modernes se seraient formées. Cependant, le mot « nation » a été à ce point investi de sens nouveaux depuis au moins le xviiie siècle que parler des nations au Moyen Âge suppose un aller-retour permanent entre Moyen Âge et modernité, exige de prêter attention à la manière dont des processus territoriaux, politiques, étatiques et aristocratiques qui appartiennent en propre à l'ethnogenèse médiévale ont été rétroactivement « nationalisés » au sens moral, affectif, guerrier et idéologique du terme
Clinical predictors of recurrences in bipolar disorders type 1 and 2: A FACE-BD longitudinal study
Objective: To examine which characteristics predict the time to a first mood recurrence at three years in Bipolar Disorder type I (BD-I) and type II (BD-II). Methods: Individuals with BD were followed up to 3 years. Turbull's extension of the Kaplan-Meier analysis for interval-censored data was used to estimate the cumulative probability of recurrence over time. Separate models were performed according to BD subtype to determine which baseline factors were predictive of recurrences and were adjusted for age, gender and educational level. Results: We included 630 individuals with BD-I and 505 with BD-II. The first recurrence of any polarity occurred earlier in BD-II (p = 0.03). The first depressive recurrence occurred earlier in BD-II (p < 0.0001), whereas the first (hypo)manic recurrence occurred earlier in BD-I (p = 0.0003). In BD-I, the clinical variables that were associated to the time to a first mood recurrence were depressive symptoms, lifetime rapid cycling, global activation and the number of psychotropic medications at baseline. In BD-II, the time to a first recurrence was associated with a younger age at onset of BD and a higher number of lifetime mood episodes. The Areas Under the Curve for both models were moderate. Conclusion: Predictors of recurrences showed few specificities to BD-I or BD-II. The ability to predict recurrences in BD based on socio-demographic and clinical variables remained too moderate for a transfer in daily practice. This study highlights the need for further studies that would include other types of predictors, such as molecular, cognitive or neuro-imaging ones, to achieve an accurate level of prediction of recurrences in BD.Sorbonne Universités à Paris pour l'Enseignement et la RechercheFondaMental-Cohorte
