Psychodramatische Supervision in der Sozialen Arbeit

Anliegen dieses Artikels ist, die besondere Qualit?t und Chance von Psychodramatischer Supervision zu beschreiben, und gleichzeitig die Kompatibilit?t und fruchtbare Erg?nzung des Moreno’schen Ansatzes innerhalb des Formats Supervision innerhalb der Sozialen Arbeit auf zuzeigen. Dies wird anhand von 2 ausgew?hlten Praxisbeispielen dargestellt. Die Handlungskompetenz von Supervisandinnen und Supervisanden kann durch einfache psychodramatische Interventionen erweitert werden. Handlungshemmung wird überwunden, Spontaneit?t und Kreativit?t kommen ins Laufen und er?ffnen Perspektiven.     

The expression of emotion through nonverbal behavior in medical visits

Relationship-centered care reflects both knowing and feeling: the knowledge that physician and patient bring from their respective domains of expertise, and the physician’s and patient’s experience, expression, and perception of emotions during the medical encounter. These processes are conveyed and reciprocated in the care process through verbal and nonverbal communication. We suggest that the emotional context of care is especially related to nonverbal communication and that emotion-related communication skills, including sending and receiving nonverbal messages and emotional self-awareness, are critical elements of high-quality care. Although nonverbal behavior has received far less study than other care processes, the current review argues that it holds significance for the therapeutic relationship and influences important outcomes including satisfaction, adherence, and clinical outcomes of care.     

甲状腺~(99)Tc~mO_4~-显像冷结节的临床诊断价值

目的　探讨甲状腺99TcmO-4 显像冷结节对不同性质甲状腺疾病的诊断价值。方法　采用静脉注射99TcmO-4 185MBq ,2 0min后甲状腺前位静态显像 ,采集总计数 1× 10 6。显像显示甲状腺结节局部放射性分布缺损或低于正常甲状腺组织则定性为冷结节。结果　 34 2例甲状腺99TcmO-4 显像发现冷结节 85例 ,发生率为2 4.9% ,85例冷结节中 ,37例 (4 3.5 % )为甲状腺瘤 ,15例为甲状腺癌 (17.6 % ) ,2 0例 (2 3.5 % )为结节性甲状腺肿 ,8例 (9.4% )为甲状腺炎 ,4例 (4 .7% )为单纯性甲状腺囊肿 ,1例 (1.3% )为甲状腺外肿物。结论　冷结节在甲状腺99Tcm O-4 显像时较为常见 ,且不同性质甲状腺疾病的冷结节及其周围组织有一定的特征性表现 ,因此99TcmO-4显像冷结节对甲状腺腺瘤、甲状腺癌、甲状腺囊肿、甲状腺炎等常见疾病具有较高的临床价值。     

Non-invasive Assessment of Coronary Flow Velocity Reserve: A New Method Using Transthoracic Doppler Echocardiography

Coronary flow reserve (CFR) has been used toassess coronary microcirculation and epicardial coro-nary stenoses[1— 3 ] . CFR is defined as the ratio ofcoronary flow under maximal coronary vasodilatationto coronary flow under resting conditions[4 ] .Whenthe cross- sectional area of epicardial coronary arteriesis constant,coronary flow velocity (CFV) ratios areequal to volume flow ratios.The most common method used clinically formeasuring CFVR is intracoronary Doppler flow(ICD) analysis re…     

Plasma leptin level and its relationship with body composition in hemodialysis patients

Leptin is a newly found hormone secreted by adipocytes that regulates food intake, thermogenesis, and body fat. We measured plasma leptin levels in 103 patients with chronic renal failure treated by hemodialysis and 167 age- and gender-matched healthy control subjects to examine the impact of renal failure on plasma leptin levels and the influence of leptin on body composition measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Hemodialysis patients showed a significant decrease in both body fat mass and lean body mass compared with those of the control subjects. Plasma leptin was significantly elevated in the hemodialysis group over the controls. In both groups, leptin was higher in female than male subjects, and it correlated positively with percent body fat. The subjects were divided into six categories according to percent body fat, and plasma leptin levels were compared between the two groups in the same category. Leptin of hemodialysis patients was significantly higher than that of the control subjects in the percent body fat categories of 30 or greater, whereas there was no statistically significant difference in leptin concentrations in the lower percent body fat categories. This was also true in the comparison in each gender, and leptin levels in female subjects showed a more remarkable difference between the hemodialysis and control groups in obese categories. Multiple regression analysis in all subjects indicated that plasma leptin levels were independently affected by percent body fat, plasma insulin concentration, gender, and renal failure. The positive impact of renal failure on leptin remained significant in the subjects with percent body fat of 30 or greater in the multiple regression model, whereas it was no longer significant in the remaining lean subjects. In multiple regression analysis of factors affecting fat mass index and lean mass index, leptin level was selectively associated with fat mass index, but not with lean mass index, regardless of percent body fat ranges. These results indicate that renal failure is an important factor affecting plasma leptin levels, especially in obese female subjects, and that hyperleptinemia was closely related to fat mass but not to lean body mass in hemodialysis patients.
