The CSF was altered in all the examined patients: 3 out of 7 presented an abnormal albumin quotient, 1 patient had an increased IgG Index; the isoelectrofocusing of the CSF proteins, carried out in 6 out of 7 cases, showed an abnormal protein content referred to gamma trace in 3 cases, oligoclonal bands in the CSF in one case, a double Tau fraction in one case, a damaged blood-brain barrier in 5 cases. The CT-performed in 6 out of 7 cases-revealed in one patient a diffuse hypodensity of the periventricular white matter, without signs of atrophy; 2 cases showed a mild atrophy of the posterior fossa involving the cerebellar hemispheres and vermis in one case, the vermis and the brain stem in the other one; no patient revealed signs of cortical or ventricular atrophy. The boundaries of the Ophthalmoplegia Plus are here discussed on the ground of the results obtained by the employment of the various research methods.</p>","PeriodicalId":21430,"journal":{"name":"Schweizer Archiv fur Neurologie, Neurochirurgie und Psychiatrie = Archives suisses de neurologie, neurochirurgie et de psychiatrie","volume":"134 1","pages":"41-52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"17763911","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mnemonic traces can be mobilized only at the cost of acute psychotic disintegration of the Self.

Indeed, during somatic illness we observe a reintegration of the body as the hinge between emotional and symbolic aspects of subjective experience.

Primary brain tumours occurred 20 times more frequently in psychiatric patients than in a normal population, in whom the rate is one in 20,000. The classic brain tumour triad frequently occurs late and is found in less than 50% of patients. In 50 to 60 percent, brain tumour is associated with mental changes, mainly confusional states and psychoorganic syndrome.

{"title":"[Sample of high school students with a demonstration of intervening factors in school achievement and failure].","authors":"C Piquilloud","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>This research investigates the relationship and link between intellectual cathexis, school achievement and personality functioning in a representative sample of secondary school students aged 12 to 15 years. The level of structure of the personality plays a most significant role. Good school achievement does not necessarily depend on an optimal psychological equilibrium. In fact, the most determining factor seems to be the part played by the defense mechanisms--particularly those which aim at controlling libidinal drives--developed and elaborated during the period of latency. A certain intellectual potential, however, is a necessary but not sufficient condition for school achievement - indeed, an end of school certificate i.e. the Swiss \"certificat de maturité\" could be obtained by students of average intelligence. The capacity of maintaining an active intellectual investment seems to be an equally determining factor. This quality of functioning contains an oedipal component - particularly the ability of taking one's stand and of competing - as well as a pre-oedipal one - the narcissistic integrity, allowing one to preserve one's self-esteem facing difficulties. Contrary to our hypothesis, the quality of subject-environment interaction with family, peers, teachers, plays a relatively minor role. A more important aspect concerns the effects and results of relations established during childhood such as the interiorization of parental expectations, the quality of the superego, the degree of internal autonomy allowing compromise with external demands, etc. Underlying conflicts can intervene at several levels. One of these levels could result in the subject's incapacity to utilize his own resources and these imply consequences ranging from difficulties in basic school achievement to non-acquisition of cognitive mecanisms and under-development of symbolization. Psychological testing is a means of identifying the underlying difficulties and determining their nature. Remediating methods include psycho-pedagogical or psychotherapeutic intervention or, in some cases, both.</p>","PeriodicalId":21430,"journal":{"name":"Schweizer Archiv fur Neurologie, Neurochirurgie und Psychiatrie = Archives suisses de neurologie, neurochirurgie et de psychiatrie","volume":"134 2","pages":"251-62"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"17522709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
