Denervation rénale endovascu- laire par radiofréquence: perspective d'un traitement prometteur de l'hypertension artérielle [Renal sympathetic denervation: perspective of a promising treatment for hypertension].

The crucial role of the sympathetic nervous system activity in the initiation and maintenance of hypertension was already in mind in the 1920s when surgical options were proposed to severely hypertensive patients. Despite constant evolution of pharmacological treatments, one estimates that 15-30% of hypertensive patients are still not well controlled and present resistant hypertension. The development of a new endovascular catheter used for selective sympathetic renal denervation by radiofrequency offers new perspectives of treatment. Encouraged by the recent results of the first clinical trials in a targeted population, this procedure could be used in some more indications in the future. However, long term morbidity and mortality of this technique are still not known.

Freud, l'art moderne et les "misérables cannibales nus": une perspective décalée sur le destin des pulsions

La «modernité» de la psychanalyse, comme entreprise à la fois thérapeutique et de savoir, dépend-elle, pour tout ou partie, du fond animique prétendument archaïque ou primitif défini par cette discipline comme son principal objet d'étude? Rapportée à l'horizon épistémique de la psychanalyse, cette articulation entre archaïsme et modernité aurait-elle seulement été du goût de Freud? En interrogeant de manière critique les rapports de Freud à l'art «moderne», à l'art «classique» et aux arts «primitifs», ce texte entend simultanément mettre en évidence l'importance du paradigme des arts dans la constitution de l'identité épistémique de la psychanalyse et proposer une possible relecture des relations entre nature et culture ou du phénomène de sublimation, tels que définis par le fondateur de la psychanalyse.

Interspinous distraction in lumbar spinal stenosis: a neurophysiological perspective.

STUDY DESIGN: Prospective neurophysiological study. OBJECTIVE: To identify and quantify the neurophysiological effects of interspinous distraction during spine surgery for lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Interspinous devices have been introduced as an alternative treatment of LSS in selected patients aiming at obtaining indirect decompression. Nevertheless, there is no data on the immediate neurophysiological effect of distraction. METHODS: Thirty patients with LSS undergoing decompression (14 at single level, 16 at multiple levels) were enrolled, resulting in a total of 48 levels to be analyzed. Before decompression, calibrated incremental distraction simulating interspinous device implantation of 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16 mm was performed. Intraoperative motor evoked potentials were acquired before any distraction, during distraction at each incremental value and after bilateral decompression. We evaluated relative changes of motor evoked potentials normalized to hand muscles and related them to the number of affected levels, LSS radiological severity based on the A to D grading, lordosis, and disc height. RESULTS: For single-level disease, 8-mm distraction and open decompression yielded similar improvement in motor evoked potentials not only in levels with morphological grades A or B, but also in levels with morphological grades C or D (i.e., severe or extreme stenosis) (P = 0.32). In contrast, distraction superior to 8 mm was less effective (P ≤ 0.05). In multiple-level stenosis, decompression was significantly more effective than any degree of distraction (P < 0.001). No correlation of those results to disc height or lordosis was observed. Using χ trend test to analyze the effect of distraction, a linear trend favoring moderate over severe stenotic morphology was observed (P = 0.0349). CONCLUSION: Interspinous distraction of 8 mm is sufficient to replicate electrophysiological improvements obtained during full decompression even in severe single-level stenosis but not in multilevel disease. Interspinous distraction has therefore an immediately measurable neurophysiological effect. Level of Evidence: 4.

ETDs, NDLTD, and open access: a 5S perspective

Worldwide initiatives toward digital library (DL) support for electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs), facilitated by the work of the Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (NDLTD), are a key part of the move toward open access. When all graduate students learn to use openly available ETDs, and have experience with authoring and submission in connection with their own research results, it will be easy for them to continue these efforts through other contributions to open access. When all universities support ETD activities, they will be key participants in institutional repositories and open access, and will have engaged in discussion and infrastructure development supportive of further open access activities. Understanding of open access also can be facilitated through modeling of all of these efforts using the 5S framework, considering the key aspects of DL development: Societies, Scenarios, Spaces, Structures, and Streams.

Knowledge management: uncovering risky gaps underlying the criticisms and moving to another perspective

The comments related to the sustainability of knowledge management (KM) have shown signs that it possibly can be a discourse which determines a quick style, but otherwise have also allowed the building of a better understanding about the limits and weaknesses of the knowlege management. In addition to the criticisms, the conceptual bases of knowledge management have been undermined by a contradictory combination of paradigms; there are also contradictions between the theoretical perspective jubjacent to the knwoledge management and its operationality. As a way of minimizing the possibility that the knowledge management may be turned into an umbrella concept and fail, it is suggested that its approaches embody a more interpretative perspective, taking up the role of an instrument which enables and facilitates the processes and practices in building up knowledge and information, enhancing their focus on the support to the establishment of human competences in order to deal intelligently with the present overcharge of information resources and need for building up information in the organizations.
