Trastorno Narcisista de la Personalidad y Esquemas Maladaptativos Tempranos en una población femenina de bajos recursos socioeconómicos

In order to achieve a better understanding of Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), the aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between this pathology and specific Early Maladaptive Schemas (EMS) discovered by J. Young. With this aim, one hundred women of low socioeconomic status, who lived in Buenos Aires (Argentina), were assessed with the SCID-II psychiatric interview and the AMAI-2018 and YSQ-L2 questionnaires. Results indicated significant differences in the Emotional Deprivation, Mistrust/Abuse, Unrelenting Standards, Insufficient Self-Control and Entitlement/Grandiosity schemas among women with NPD (n = 65). The presence of these schemas in the group with NPD suggests paranoid tendencies, empathic difficulties, impulsivity, feelings of superiority and the development of utilitarian interpersonal relationships. These characteristics would constitute one of the most severe presentations of NPD.Con el objetivo de arribar a una mayor comprensión del Trastorno Narcisista de la Personalidad (TNP), el presente estudio se centra en el análisis de la relación entre el TNP y determinados Esquemas Maladaptativos Tempranos (EMTs) descriptos por J. Young. Para ello, cien mujeres de bajo nivel socioeconómico de la provincia de Buenos Aires (Argentina) fueron evaluadas con la entrevista psiquiátrica SCID-II y se les administraron los cuestionarios AMAI-2018 y YSQ-L2. Los resultados indicaron diferencias significativas en los esquemas de Privación emocional, Desconfianza/abuso, Estándares inflexibles I, Insuficiente autocontrol y Derecho/grandiosidad entre las mujeres con TNP (n = 65). La combinación de estos esquemas indicaría la presencia de tendencias paranoides, dificultades empáticas, impulsividad, vivencia de superioridad y establecimiento de relaciones interpersonales utilitarias en esta población. Estas características conformarían una de las presentaciones más severas dentro del TNP

La renovación de la palabra en el bicentenario de la Argentina : los colores de la mirada lingüística

El libro reúne trabajos en los que se exponen resultados de investigaciones presentadas por investigadores de Argentina, Chile, Brasil, España, Italia y Alemania en el XII Congreso de la Sociedad Argentina de Lingüística (SAL), Bicentenario: la renovación de la palabra, realizado en Mendoza, Argentina, entre el 6 y el 9 de abril de 2010. Las temáticas abordadas en los 167 capítulos muestran las grandes líneas de investigación que se desarrollan fundamentalmente en nuestro país, pero también en los otros países mencionados arriba, y señalan además las áreas que recién se inician, con poca tradición en nuestro país y que deberían fomentarse. Los trabajos aquí publicados se enmarcan dentro de las siguientes disciplinas y/o campos de investigación: Fonología, Sintaxis, Semántica y Pragmática, Lingüística Cognitiva, Análisis del Discurso, Psicolingüística, Adquisición de la Lengua, Sociolingüística y Dialectología, Didáctica de la lengua, Lingüística Aplicada, Lingüística Computacional, Historia de la Lengua y la Lingüística, Lenguas Aborígenes, Filosofía del Lenguaje, Lexicología y Terminología

Clinical and pulmonary function analysis in long-COVID revealed that long-term pulmonary dysfunction is associated with vascular inflammation pathways and metabolic syndrome

IntroductionLong-term pulmonary dysfunction (L-TPD) is one of the most critical manifestations of long-COVID. This lung affection has been associated with disease severity during the acute phase and the presence of previous comorbidities, however, the clinical manifestations, the concomitant consequences and the molecular pathways supporting this clinical condition remain unknown. The aim of this study was to identify and characterize L-TPD in patients with long-COVID and elucidate the main pathways and long-term consequences attributed to this condition by analyzing clinical parameters and functional tests supported by machine learning and serum proteome profiling.MethodsPatients with L-TPD were classified according to the results of their computer-tomography (CT) scan and diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide adjusted for hemoglobin (DLCOc) tests at 4 and 12-months post-infection.ResultsRegarding the acute phase, our data showed that L-TPD was favored in elderly patients with hypertension or insulin resistance, supported by pathways associated with vascular inflammation and chemotaxis of phagocytes, according to computer proteomics. Then, at 4-months post-infection, clinical and functional tests revealed that L-TPD patients exhibited a restrictive lung condition, impaired aerobic capacity and reduced muscular strength. At this time point, high circulating levels of platelets and CXCL9, and an inhibited FCgamma-receptor-mediated-phagocytosis due to reduced FcγRIII (CD16) expression in CD14+ monocytes was observed in patients with L-TPD. Finally, 1-year post infection, patients with L-TPD worsened metabolic syndrome and augmented body mass index in comparison with other patient groups.DiscussionOverall, our data demonstrated that CT scan and DLCOc identified patients with L-TPD after COVID-19. This condition was associated with vascular inflammation and impair phagocytosis of virus-antibody immune complexes by reduced FcγRIII expression. In addition, we conclude that COVID-19 survivors required a personalized follow-up and adequate intervention to reduce long-term sequelae and the appearance of further metabolic diseases

3er. Coloquio: Fortalecimiento de los Colectivos de Docencia

Las memorias del 3er. Coloquio de Fortalecimiento de Colectivos de Docencia deben ser entendidas como un esfuerzo colectivo de la comunidad de académicos de la División de Ciencias y Artes para el Diseño, en medio de la pandemia COVID-19, con el fin de: • Analizar y proponer acciones concretas que promuevan el mejoramiento de la calidad docente en la División. • Proponer acciones que permitan continuar fortaleciendo los cursos con modalidad a distancia (remotos). • Ante un escenario que probablemente demandará en el mediano plazo, transitar del modelo remoto a un modelo híbrido, proponer acciones a considerar para la transición de los cursos. • Planear y preparar cursos de nivelación de conocimientos, para cuando se transite a la impartición de la docencia de manera mixta o presencial, dirigidos a los alumnos que no hayan tenido oportunidad de desarrollar actividades relevantes para su formación, como prácticas de talleres y laboratorios, visitas, o alguna otra actividad relevante
