Chronic pain negatively affects psychological functioning including self-perception. Self-compassion may improve self-related functioning in patients with chronic pain but understanding of the neural mechanisms is limited. In this study, twenty patients with chronic low back pain read negative self-related situations and were instructed to be either self-reassuring or self-critical while undergoing fMRI. Patients rated their feelings of self-reassurance and self-criticism during each condition, and brain responses were contrasted with neutral instructions. Trait self-compassion measures (SCS) were also acquired. Brain activations during self-criticism and self-reassurance were localized to prefrontal, self- and emotion-processing areas, such as medial prefrontal cortex, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC), dorsal anterior cingulate cortex and posterior cingulate cortex. Self-reassurance resulted in more widespread and stronger activations relative to self-criticism. Patients then completed a brief self-compassion training (8 contact hours, 2 weeks home practice). Exploratory pre-post comparisons in thirteen patients found that feelings of self-criticism were significantly reduced and brain activations were greater in the anterior insula and prefrontal cortical regions such as dlPFC. Pre-post increases in dlPFC activation correlated with increased self-compassion (SCS), suggesting that early self-compassion skills might primarily target self-criticism via dlPFC upregulation. Future controlled studies on self-compassion training in chronic pain populations should extend these results.Electrode placement in electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) has a major impact on treatment efficacy and cognitive side effects. Left Anterior Right Temporal (LART) is a lesser utilised bilateral montage which may produce more optimal clinical outcomes relative to standard bitemporal ECT. In this study we used computational modelling to explore how stimulation effects from LART and two novel variants (LART - F3 and LART - Frontal) compared to the more common bilateral placements of bitemporal and bifrontal ECT. High resolution finite element human head models were generated from MRI scans of three subjects with Major Depressive Disorder. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/pd-1-pd-l1-inhibitor-2.html Differences in regional stimulation were examined through parametric tests for regions of interest and subtraction maps. Compared to bitemporal ECT, LART - Original resulted in significantly greater stimulation of the left cingulate gyrus (hypothesised to be associated with treatment efficacy), and relatively reduced stimulation of the bilateral hippocampi (potentially associated with cognitive side effects). No additional clinical benefit was suggested with the novel LART placements compared to the original LART. The original LART placement is a promising montage for further clinical investigation. The increase in non-separated solid waste is a threat to environmental health. People may be motivated to reduce the destructive effects of waste accumulation in the environment by receiving educational messages and learning the proper methods of waste separation. This study aimed to determine the effect of educational messages on waste separation in dormitory students based on Extended Parallel Process Model (EPPM). This randomized controlled trial was performed on 320 students categorized into four groups from October to December 2019. After installing waste separation tags on separate containers, three types of messages were presented to encourage and educate waste separation in the following four groups threat messages; efficacy messages; threat/efficacy messages; and control group. Data were collected prior to and one week after training by a self-reported valid and reliable questionnaire. They were analyzed in SPSS21. In the efficacy group and threat/efficacy group, not only the mean scores of "pein practice, not in theory. Situs inversus is a rare congenital malformation often discovered during childhood. It can cause diagnosis errors in adulthood. Its association with gastric perforation is an extremely rare event in the literature. Its diagnosis is made by an adequate morphological assessment. A 45-years-old man, was admitted to the surgical emergency department for generalized acute abdominal pain initially sitting in the right hypochondrium, accompanied by bilious vomiting and a stop in intestinal transit, progressing for 48 h. He had no known surgical history. The clinical examination noted an altered general state (WHO III) and a peritoneal syndrome. A diagnosis of generalized acute peritonitis has been made. An x-ray of the abdomen without preparation revealed a bilateral pneumoperitoneum with a cardiac point on the right. The thoraco-abdomino-pelvic CT scan confirmed the diagnosis. After resuscitation, the patient underwent a laparotomy with gastroraphy and appendectomy. The postoperative follow-ups were without an uneventful, over a 15-month follow-up. Situs inversus totalis is an uncomon event. Its exact etiology is still unknown. Some authors incriminate an autosomal recessive gene. In our context, its diagnosis is a surprise. Its revelation by gastric perforation is an extremely rare event. Surgical treatment must be performed early. Prognosis is generally better. In developing countries the diagnosis of situs inversus is a surprise during a pathology which led the patient to a medical consultation. CT-scan is one of the key paraclinic exams for its diagnosis.

Bilateral simultaneous facial palsy is a rare clinical entity. Traumatic origin is even rarer. Long-term sequelae are disabling. Therefore, rapid and adequate management is crucial. Herein we present a case report of a traumatic bilateral facial palsy in a 43 years old male treated with surgery in one side and conservative treatment in the other side. He achieved eye closure at his 10 months follow up. Electroneurography showing more than 90 % of facial nerve degeneration and electromyography revealing no regeneration potentials are identified as surgical indications. The perigeniculate region is the most commonly injured portion of the facial nerve with temporal bone fractures. Surgical approach to this area remains controversial; transmastoid, middle fossa craniotomy or a combination of both. It is important to discuss expectations with the patient as it might take 12 months to regain maximal nerve function.
