Personality disorders and adult attachment dimensions in a mixed psychiatric sample: A multivariate study

The associations between personality disorders and adult attachment dimensions were assessed in a sample of 487 consecutively admitted psychiatric subjects. Canonical correlation analysis showed that two sets of moderately correlated canonical variates explained the correlations between personality disorders and adult attachment patterns. The first and second attachment variates closely resembled the avoidance and anxiety attachment dimensions, respectively. The first personality disorder variate was mainly characterized by avoidant, depressive, paranoid, and schizotypal personality disorders, whereas dependent, histrionic, and borderline personality disorders loaded on the second canonical variate. However, these linear combinations of personality disorders were different from those obtained from principal component analysis. The results extend previous studies linking personality disorders and attachment patterns and suggest the importance of focusing on specific constellations of symptoms associated with dimensions of insecurity.

Socioeconomic causes of loss of animal genetic diversity: analysis and assessment

The proximate causes and processes involved in loss of breeds are outlined. The path-dependent effect and Swanson's dominance-effect are discussed in relation to lock-in of breed selection. These effects help to explain genetic erosion. It is shown that the extension of markets and economic globalisation have contributed significantly to the loss of breeds. The decoupling of animal husbandry from surrounding natural environmental conditions is further eroding the stock of genetic resources. Recent trends in animal husbandry raise serious sustainability issues, apart from animal welfare concerns. The extension of markets and economic globalisation have contributed significantly to the rapid loss of domestic breeds, especially livestock. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Pyrrolizidine alkaloids in Senecio madagascariensis from Australia and Hawaii and assessment of possible livestock poisoning

The alkaloid content of Senecio madagascariensis collected from Australia and Hawaii was examined. Alkaloids were identified from the above ground whole plant (stems, leaves and flowers) by GUMS analysis and included: senecivernine, senecionine, integerrimine, senkirkine, mucronatinine, retrosine, usaramine, otosenine, acetylsenkirkine, desacetyldoronine, florosenine and doronine. Plant material collected from the Hawaiian Islands was found to be identical in pyrrolizidine alkaloid content to that from a single composite collection made from northern New South Wales, Australia. Overall, no appreciable differences in alkaloid content were found between locations, whereas variation among individual plants was evident. The average total pyrrolizidine alkaloid content varied from a low of 217 mu g/g to a high of 1990 mu g/g (dry weight basis) among the locations. Based on comparable alkaloid content and documented pyrrolizidine alkaloidosis cases from Australia, S. madagascariensis may pose a significant risk to livestock grazing heavily infested ranges on the Hawaiian Islands.
