The representation of the back in idiomatic expressions--do idioms value the body?
Objective: Whilst investigating the influence of patients' representations on the impact of teaching in the back school, we took an interest in 1) the place of the back in the French idioms referring to the body; and 2) the meaning these idioms convey about the back. Methods: The idioms including body part terms were sought on the basis of a compilation of French idioms; it has to be noted that such a compilation, however excellent it may be, can only offer a partial view of lay conversation. Occurrence of body parts and of their connotations were assessed. Idioms were classified as positive, negative or neutral, keeping in mind the difficulties of a strict classification in such a field. Drawings were then performed on the basis of the results of the descriptive analysis. Results: Globally, idiomatic expressions offer a rather negative picture of the body or at least suggest that the body is prominently used to express negative ideas and emotions. This is particularly striking for the idioms associated with the back. Conclusion: The analysis of idioms referring to the body allows us to 'see with our own eyes' another aspect of the representations of the body and the back, as they are conveyed in the French language.

<![CDATA[Trois ans aprĂšs avoir tĂ©moignĂ© de son mal chronique, une fidĂšle s'exprime Ă nouveau devant sa communautĂ©, une Ăglise Ă©vangĂ©lique de type charismatique. Elle partage la nouvelle de sa guĂ©rison miraculeuse. L'analyse comparĂ©e de ces rĂ©cits, ainsi qu'une description ethnographique des cĂ©lĂ©brations durant lesquelles ils sont Ă©mis, montre comment l'Ă©nonciation de la croyante est encadrĂ©e par le pasteur. Une approche pragmatique et Ă©nonciative permet de ressaisir simultanĂ©ment cet encadrement au plan institutionnel et interactionnel. On verra alors comment cette parole publique contribue Ă redĂ©finir la perception que la communautĂ© a de Dieu et d'elle-mĂȘme. Chacune des situations de tĂ©moignage renvoie ainsi Ă deux façons prĂ©sentes au sein de l'Ă©vangĂ©lisme charismatique de se rapporter au surnaturel qui ont un impact sur l'organisation des Ăglises locales.Three years after sharing publicly about her chronic illness, a believer addresses again her congregation, an Evangelical church with Charismatic leanings. She shares the news of her miraculous healing. A comparative analysis of those testimonies and on ethnographic descriptions of the worship services during which she spoke will show how the pastor frames the believer's enunciation. A pragmatic and enunciative approach recaptures simultaneously both interactional and institutional levels. It will appear that the public speech contributes to redefining the congregation's perception of God and of itself. Both testimony settings show two ways, within Charismatic Evangelism, to refer to the supernatural. Those ways have an impact on the organization of the local churches
Importance of speciesâspecific antigens in the serodiagnosis of Chlamydia trachomatis reactive arthritis
Objectives.âTo determine the most sensitive and specific method of antiâChlamydia antibody measurement for the serodiagnosis of Chlamydia trachomatis reactive arthritis. Methods.âImmunoblotting, enzymeâlinked immunosorbent assays using six synthetic peptides or recombinant antigens and a microimmunofluorescence test were used to determine the presence of IgG, IgM and IgA in serum samples from 17 patients with C. trachomatis reactive arthritis. Twenty patients with other inflammatory arthropathies without evidence of urogenital C. trachomatis infection were used as controls. Results.âThe best association of sensitivity (76%) and specificity (85%) was obtained when IgG and/or IgA reactivity to two speciesâspecific antigens was determined. These antigens were synthetic peptides, derived from speciesâspecific epitopes in the variable domain IV of the major outer membrane protein (MOMP) (Labsystems, Finland) and recombinant polypeptide encoded by open reading frame 3 of the plasmid (pgp3). Conclusions.âIgG and/or IgA antiâMOMPâderived peptides and antiâpgp3 could be useful for the diagnosis of probable C. trachomatis reactive arthriti
SYNOVIAL FLUID AND SERUM ANTIBODIES AGAINST CHLAMYDIA IN DIFFERENT FORMS OF ARTHRITIS: INTRA-ARTICULAR IgA PRODUCTION IN CHLAMYDIA SEXUALLY ACQUIRED REACTIVE ARTHRITIS
SUMMARY Since the presence of Chlamydia has been shown in synovial fluid (SF) from some patients with Chlamydia reactive arthritis, we investigated whether anti-Chlamydia antibodies present in the joint are derived from the circulation or are locally produced. We compared titres of IgG, IgM and IgA antibodies against Chlamydia, and against a control antigen (tetanus toxoid), by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), in paired samples of serum and SF from Chlamydia trachomatis sexually acquired reactive arthritis (CT-SARA) patients and from patients with other forms of arthritis. The ratio of serum/SF IgA anti-Chlamydia antibodies was significantly decreased in CT-SARA patients. It is concluded that, in our experimental conditions, we found evidence for intra-articular production of IgA anti-Chlamydia antibodie
THE VALUE OF ISOTYPE DETERMINATION OF SERUM ANTIBODIES AGAINST CHLAMYDIA FOR THE DIAGNOSIS OF CHLAMYDIA REACTIVE ARTHRITIS
SUMMARY In clinical rheumatology, the diagnosis of Chlamydia reactive arthritis is difficult because an incomplete form of the disease can closely resemble an undifferentiated seronegative mono/oligoarthritis. We investigated whether measuring specific isotypes of anti-Chlamydia antibodies in serum can improve the diagnosis, by comparing such antibody concentrations in the serum of patients with well-defined disease, i.e. Chlamydia trachomatis sexually acquired reactive arthritis (CT-SARA), with other arthritides. Antibody levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). When considering two different isotypes and their combination, the best sensitivity (63%) was obtained for IgM and/or IgA results with a specificity of 81%. The patients with CT-SARA and SARA had the highest levels of antibodies of all isotypes tested. It is concluded that, in our experimental conditions, only very high values of specific isotypes could indicate a diagnosis of Chlamydia reactive arthriti
Nucleation of Quark--Gluon Plasma from Hadronic Matter
The energy densities achieved during central collisions of large nuclei at
Brookhaven's AGS may be high enough to allow the formation of quark--gluon
plasma. Calculations based on relativistic nucleation theory suggest that rare
events, perhaps one in every 10 or 10, undergo the phase transition.
Experimental ramifications may include an enhancement in the ratio of pions to
baryons, a reduction in the ratio of deuterons to protons, and a larger source
size as seen by hadron interferometry.Comment: 22 pages, 7 figures available upon request, NUC--MINN--94/5--
Scattering in the Presence of Electroweak Phase Transition Bubble Walls
We investigate the motion of fermions in the presence of an electro\-weak
phase transition bubble wall. We derive and solve the Dirac equation for such
fer\-mions, and compute the transmission and reflection coefficients for
fermions traveling from the symmetric to the asymmetric phases separated by the
domain wall.Comment: TPI--MINN--54, NUC--MINN--93/30--T, UMN--TH--1226/93, LaTex, 29 page
Empathy, engagement, entrainment: the interaction dynamics of aesthetic experience
A recent version of the view that aesthetic experience is based in empathy as inner
imitation explains aesthetic experience as the automatic simulation of actions,
emotions, and bodily sensations depicted in an artwork by motor neurons in the brain. Criticizing the simulation theory for committing to an erroneous concept of empathy and failing to distinguish regular from aesthetic experiences of art, I advance an alternative, dynamic approach and claim that aesthetic experience is enacted and skillful, based in the recognition of othersâ experiences as distinct from oneâs own. In combining insights from mainly psychology, phenomenology, and cognitive science, the dynamic approach aims to explain the emergence of aesthetic experience in terms of the reciprocal interaction between viewer and artwork. I argue that aesthetic experience emerges by participatory sense-making and revolves around movement as a means for creating meaning. While entrainment merely plays a preparatory part in this, aesthetic engagement constitutes the phenomenological side of coupling to an artwork and provides the context for exploration, and eventually for moving, seeing, and feeling with art. I submit that aesthetic experience emerges from bodily and emotional engagement with works of art via the complementary processes of the perceptionâaction and motionâemotion loops. The former involves the embodied
visual exploration of an artwork in physical space, and progressively structures and organizes visual experience by way of perceptual feedback from body movements made in response to the artwork. The latter concerns the movement qualities and shapes of implicit and explicit bodily responses to an artwork that cue emotion and thereby modulate over-all affect and attitude. The two processes cause the viewer to bodily and emotionally move with and be moved by individual works of art, and consequently to recognize another psychological orientation than her own, which explains how art can cause feelings of insight or awe and disclose aspects of life that are unfamiliar or novel to the viewer
Development of atypical parental behavior during an inpatient family preservation intervention program
Since failed reunification is a detrimental outcome for children, particularly infants and toddlers, the aim of this study was to gain insight into support to families in multiple-problem situations to help them achieve sustainable good-enough parenting. Therefore, we examined outcomes of an assessment-based inpatient family preservation program. We prepared a thorough target-population description (n = 70) using file analysis. Next, we examined atypical parental behavior during the intervention using the Atypical Maternal Behavior Instrument for Assessment and Classification with a repeated measures design (n = 30). The family files revealed a great number of issues at the family, parent, and child levels, such as practical matters, problems in parent functioning and between parents, and difficulties in the broader environment. We found a significant decline in three dimensions of atypical parental behavior over time. This program has great potential in supporting vulnerable families in their pursuit of family preservation
Structure-based exploration and pharmacological evaluation of N-substituted piperidin-4-yl-methanamine CXCR4 chemokine receptor antagonists
Using the available structural information of the chemokine receptor CXCR4, we present hit finding and hit exploration studies that make use of virtual fragment screening, design, synthesis and structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies. Fragment 2 was identified as virtual screening hit and used as a starting point for the exploration of 31âŻN-substituted piperidin-4-yl-methanamine derivatives to investigate and improve the interactions with the CXCR4 binding site. Additionally, subtle structural ligand changes lead to distinct interactions with CXCR4 resulting in a full to partial displacement of CXCL12 binding and competitive and/or non-competitive antagonism. Three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) and binding model studies were used to identify important hydrophobic interactions that determine binding affinity and indicate key ligand-receptor interactions
