    This article gives an account of the bibliography on the contribution of ethics of Humberto Maturana to systemic family therapy. The approach was qualitative, under a hermeneutical perspective, emphasizing a documentary strategy. The generation of information technique was the review of bibliography. the analysis sample corresponding to this, was about fifteen texts. Research shows that the ethics proposal in Maturana is based on accept others as legitimate others in coexistence, privileges the being over the doing, the excitement over the reason, cooperation over competition, and confidence over fear. It is concluded that the adoption of the proposed ethics of Maturana in systemic family therapy promotes horizontality in the therapeutic process and invites to a more accurate view of family.Este artículo da cuenta del rastreo bibliográfico sobre el aporte de la ética de Humberto Maturana a la terapia familiar sistémica.

    Introducción: El crecimiento craneofacial es un proceso dinámico e impredecible influenciado por factores genéticos y ambientales, presentando diferencias fenotípicas y de género. Objetivo: Evaluar las diferencias en el crecimiento y desarrollo craneofacial en un grupo de individuos colombianos con labio y paladar hendido (LPH) completo unilateral y bilateral y sin LPH, clasificados por género y edad. Entorno y población muestral: Quinientas cuarenta y una radiografías de perfil de 126 pacientes con CLP unilateral, 126 con CLP bilateral y 289 sin CLP. Todos los pacientes de los grupos afectados tenían antecedentes de cirugía de corrección del CLP sin moldeado nasoalveolar con tratamientos ortopédicos y ortodóncicos. Materiales y métodos: Este estudio transversal se realizó comparando 8 medidas cefalométricas en radiografías, 5 lineales/3 angulares. El análisis se realizó por mediana y rango intercuartílico para todas las medidas cefalométricas. La comparación entre los grupos se realizó mediante Kruskal-Wallis y U de Mann-Whitney, con una confianza del 95%. Resultados: Diferencias significativas entre los grupos de pacientes con y sin CLP, entre tipos de fisuras y géneros. Las estructuras esqueléticas de los pacientes con CLP eran más pequeñas que las de los controles, pero mejoraban con el crecimiento. Los pacientes con CLP unilateral presentaban perfiles planos y maloclusiones predominantemente de clase III, mientras que los pacientes con CLP bilateral, a edades tempranas, eran de clase II y en la etapa prepuberal, los valores eran progresivamente negativos hasta el final del periodo de crecimiento, sugiriendo clase III. Los pacientes con CLP presentaron rotación posteroinferior de la mandíbula, medidas verticales aumentadas y desviación de la base craneal. Conclusiones: Dadas sus alteraciones en el crecimiento, los pacientes con CLP se benefician del tratamiento ortopédico y ortodóncico.Introduction: Craniofacial growth is a dynamic and unpredictable process influenced by genetic and environmental factors, presenting phenotypic and gender differences. Objective: Evaluate the differences in craniofacial growth and development in a group of Colombian individuals with complete unilateral and bilateral cleft lip and palate (CLP) and without CLP, classified by gender and age. Setting and Sample Population: Five hundred forty-one profile radiographs of 126 patients with unilateral CLP, 126 with bilateral CLP, and 289 without CLP. All patients of affected groups had a history of CLP correction surgery without nasoalveolar molding with orthopedic and orthodontic treatments. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed comparing 8 cephalometric measurements on radiographs, 5 linear/3 angular. Analysis was performed by median and interquartile range for all cephalometric measurements. Comparison between the groups was performed using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U, with a 95% confidence. Results: Significant differences between the groups of patients with and without CLP, between types of clefts and genders. The skeletal structures of patients with CLP were smaller than those of control but improved with growth. Patients with unilateral CLP presented flat profiles and predominant class III malocclusions, while patients with bilateral CLP, at early ages, were class II and in the prepubertal stage, the values were progressively negative until the end of the growth period, suggesting class III. Patients with CLP presented posteroinferior rotation of the mandible, vertical measurements increased, and deflection of the cranial base. Conclusion: Given their growth alterations, patients with CLP benefit from orthopedic and orthodontic treatment

    En este proyecto nos proponemos continuar profundizando y reflexionando en torno a dos conceptos claves: el de autor y el de territorio, a los que incorporaremos una tercera dimensión, la de la interculturalidad; por lo tanto, esta tríada nos permitirá la complejización de los planteos con los que veníamos trabajando la literatura y otras prácticas significantes en Misiones. Las actividades desarrolladas en las etapas anteriores nos permiten, hoy, operar con estos conceptos como posibilidad para instalar una práctica interpretativa de las múltiples significaciones; además, propicia el despliegue de una diversidad de líneas de investigación generadas a partir de las iniciativas de los integrantes del equipo. Desde esta posición nos permitirá configurar una cartografía de la literatura y de otras discursividades sociales de la cotidianeidad misionera, no sólo desde las últimas tres décadas, territorio temporal en el que se produjeron múltiples manifestaciones que entretejieron la urdiembre del campo cultural misionero, sino que será interesante abordar otras constelaciones territoriales. La enunciación de esta trama problemática compleja brinda la posibilidad de un diálogo con prácticas, y juegos de lenguaje. Las lecturas críticas responderán a criterios y segmentaciones en torno a categorías teóricas: formaciones, instituciones, pulsiones y tensiones en el campo cultural y el campo intelectual, juegos de lenguaje, constelación de diálogos con autores de la literatura universal, dispositivos de inscripción en la memoria cultural, los autores/escritores/productores y los lectores. Literatura regional y literatura territorial. Los diversos géneros literarios, testimoniales y conversacionales sus condiciones de producción, la escritura y la Genética, arqueología, archivos, colecciones y bibliotecas. Proyectos autorales -estéticos, artísticos, políticos e ideológicos- grupos, formaciones, instituciones. Representaciones y esferas culturales e identitarias, otras voces, tramas y texturas de discursividades sociales; territorios interculturales y discursos fundadores. Su inclusión en el Programa de Semiótica responde a la posibilidad que esta disciplina brinda tanto desde lo teórico como desde lo metodológico para el análisis de los procesos de semiosis infinita y en particular, para la lectura crítica de un territorio en el que las prácticas lingüísticas, intelectuales y sociales, propias de un contexto de relaciones interculturales le otorgan un matiz especial

    Mouse mammary tumors display Stat3 activation dependent on leukemia inhibitory factor signaling

    Introduction: It has been demonstrated that leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) induces epithelium apoptosis through Stat3 activation during mouse mammary gland involution. In contrast, it has been shown that this transcription factor is commonly activated in breast cancer cells, although what causes this effect remains unknown. Here we have tested the hypothesis that locally produced LIF can be responsible for Stat3 activation in mouse mammary tumors. Methods: The studies were performed in different tumorigenic and non-tumorigenic mammary cells. The expression of LIF and LIF receptor was tested by RT-PCR analysis. In tumors, LIF and Stat3 proteins were analyzed by immunohistochemistry, whereas Stat3 and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 expression and phosphorylation were studied by Western blot analysis. A LIF-specific blocking antibody was used to determine whether this cytokine was responsible for Stat3 phosphorylation induced by conditioned medium. Specific pharmacological inhibitors (PD98059 and Stat3ip) that affect ERK1/2 and Stat3 activation were used to study their involvement in LIF-induced effects. To analyze cell survival, assays with crystal violet were performed. Results: High levels of LIF expression and activated Stat3 were found in mammary tumors growing in vivo and in their primary cultures. We found a single mouse mammary tumor cell line, LM3, that showed low levels of activated Stat3. Incidentally, these cells also showed very little expression of LIF receptor. This suggested that autocrine/paracrine LIF would be responsible for Stat3 activation in mouse mammary tumors. This hypothesis was confirmed by the ability of conditioned medium of mammary tumor primary cultures to induce Stat3 phosphorylation, activity that was prevented by pretreatment with LIF-blocking antibody. Besides, we found that LIF increased tumor cell viability. Interestingly, blocking Stat3 activation enhanced this effect in mammary tumor cells. Conclusion: LIF is overexpressed in mouse mammary tumors, where it acts as the main Stat3 activator. Interestingly, the positive LIF effect on tumor cell viability is not dependent on Stat3 activation, which inhibits tumor cell survival as it does in normal mammary epithelium. © 2007 Quaglino et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.Fil:Quaglino, A.

    BACKGROUND: Although mental disorders and suicidal thoughts-behaviors (suicidal thoughts and behaviors) are common among university students, the majority of students with these problems remain untreated. It is unclear what the barriers are to these students seeking treatment. AIMS: The aim of this study is to examine the barriers to future help-seeking and the associations of clinical characteristics with these barriers in a cross-national sample of first-year college students. METHOD: As part of the World Mental Health International College Student (WMH-ICS) initiative, web-based self-report surveys were obtained from 13,984 first-year students in eight countries across the world. Clinical characteristics examined included screens for common mental disorders and reports about suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Multivariate regression models adjusted for socio-demographic, college-, and treatment-related variables were used to examine correlates of help-seeking intention and barriers to seeking treatment. RESULTS: Only 24.6% of students reported that they would definitely seek treatment if they had a future emotional problem. The most commonly reported reasons not to seek treatment among students who failed to report that they would definitely seek help were the preference to handle the problem alone (56.4%) and wanting to talk with friends or relatives instead (48.0%). Preference to handle the problem alone and feeling too embarrassed were also associated with significantly reduced odds of having at least some intention to seek help among students who failed to report that they would definitely seek help. Having 12-month major depression, alcohol use disorder, and suicidal thoughts and behaviors were also associated with significantly reduced reported odds of the latter outcome. CONCLUSIONS: The majority of first-year college students in the WMH-ICS surveys report that they would be hesitant to seek help in case of future emotional problems. Attitudinal barriers and not structural barriers were found to be the most important reported reasons for this hesitation. Experimental research is needed to determine whether intention to seek help and, more importantly, actual help-seeking behavior could be increased with the extent to which intervention strategies need to be tailored to particular student characteristics. Given that the preference to handle problems alone and stigma and appear to be critical, there could be value in determining if internet-based psychological treatments, which can be accessed privately and are often build as self-help approaches, would be more acceptable than other types of treatments to student who report hesitation about seeking treatment.status: publishe

    WHO World Mental Health Surveys International College Student Project: Prevalence and Distribution of Mental Disorders

    Increasingly, colleges across the world are contending with rising rates of mental disorders, and in many cases, the demand for services on campus far exceeds the available resources. The present study reports initial results from the first stage of the WHO World Mental Health International College Student project, in which a series of surveys in 19 colleges across 8 countries (Australia, Belgium, Germany, Mexico, Northern Ireland, South Africa, Spain, United States) were carried out with the aim of estimating prevalence and basic sociodemographic correlates of common mental disorders among first-year college students. Web-based self-report questionnaires administered to incoming first-year students (45.5% pooled response rate) screened for six common lifetime and 12-month DSM-IV mental disorders: major depression, mania/hypomania, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, alcohol use disorder, and substance use disorder. We focus on the 13,984 respondents who were full-time students: 35% of whom screened positive for at least one of the common lifetime disorders assessed and 31% screened positive for at least one 12-month disorder. Syndromes typically had onsets in early to middle adolescence and persisted into the year of the survey. Although relatively modest, the strongest correlates of screening positive were older age, female sex, unmarried-deceased parents, no religious affiliation, nonheterosexual identification and behavior, low secondary school ranking, and extrinsic motivation for college enrollment. The weakness of these associations means that the syndromes considered are widely distributed with respect to these variables in the student population. Although the extent to which cost-effective treatment would reduce these risks is unclear, the high level of need for mental health services implied by these results represents a major challenge to institutions of higher education and governments.
