Abstract Cet article retrace l’histoire d’un projet de recherche qui a échoué. Nous avons conçu et implémenté une intervention psychologique visant à augmenter les compétences émotionnelles des patient·e·s atteint·e·s de cancer œsogastrique ou de cancer du poumon, après leurs traitements. L’étude était un essai contrôlé randomisé dans un hôpital public. Nous présentons le protocole final de l’étude, décrivons les difficultés rencontrées et nos réflexions à ce sujet, afin de transmettre notre expérience et les messages clefs qui vont avec aux chercheur·e·s et clinicien·ne·s pour la mise en œuvre de telles interventions. Tout d’abord, le rôle de la psychologie, des émotions et… More >

Abstract L’accompagnement professionnel des patients en âge de travailler est d’une importance de santé publique majeure en cancérologie. Toutefois, qu’ils reprennent le travail ou non, la priorité reste de préserver leur qualité de vie. D’ailleurs, pour certains patients, un arrêt de la carrière professionnelle peut avoir lieu au profit d’un engagement associatif et/ou auprès des services de soin et de recherche scientifique. Il s’agit d’un vrai retour à l’activité qui peut être également synonyme de tremplin professionnel lorsque les patients concernés sont en mesure de se construire une nouvelle trajectoire professionnelle en cumulant leurs compétences professionnelles initiales et leurs savoirs expérientiels… More >

Abstract In vitro maturation (IVM), a promising assisted reproductive technology (ART), has been evolving in clinical trials and applications. There is a huge potential demand for IVM in clinical practice because it reduces the stimulation of gonadotropins to patients and provides evidence for the safety of neonatal birth. Unfortunately, the maturation rate of oocytes in vivo is not as high as it is in vivo due to a different microenvironment. Moreover, there are still controversies in predicting the developmental capability of oocytes in IVM. The granulosa cells (GCs) and cumulus cells (CCs), closely surrounding the oocytes, play a critical role in… More >

Abstract Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a first-line psychotherapy in Western countries, yet there have been limited studies examined the required skills based on perception of CBT therapists in the context of Western countries, and there has been no such research in China. Currently, there is no exist of a selfassessment scale to evaluate the required competence perceived by CBT therapists in China. This study used both qualitative and quantitative method to develop a self-assessment tool by CBT therapist to provide their perception about required skills in the treatment of mental disorders in China. Qualitative research used semistructured behavioural event interviews… More >

Abstract Porcine immature oocyte quality (i.e., that of live oocytes at the germinal vesicle stage) was evaluated according to features of the surrounding cumulus, aiming to establish maturational competence of different subpopulations of such cumulus-oocyte complexes. Six subpopulations were identified: A₁ (with a dense cumulus), A₂ (with a translucent cumulus), B₁ (with the corona radiata), B₂ (partly naked oocytes), C (naked oocytes), D (with a dark cumulus). The percent incidence of live oocyte in these subpopulations changed significantly as related to cumulus features, however the occurrence of oocytes in the germinal vesicle stage was lower in class D only. Similar metaphase… More >

Abstract A barley mutant, 194, was observed to exhibit a leaf spot phenotype over the whole course of its growing period. In this study, the phenotype and antioxidant competence were studied in the lesion mimic mutant 194. Plant height was slightly higher in mutant 194 than in the wild type (WT). In addition, leaf spot per plant in mutant 194 was significantly higher than in WT. Antioxidant competence, as indicated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, antioxidant enzyme activity, and the expression of antioxidant enzyme-encoding genes was also assessed in mutant 194. Compared to the WT, mutant 194 displayed a relatively… More >
