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.     

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…     

High-resolution HLA-DRB1 and DQB1 genotyping in Japanese patients with testicular germ cell carcinoma.

We report for the first time the frequency distributions of HLA-DRB1 and -DQB1 genes in 55 patients with testicular germ cell carcinoma (TGC) using the modified PCR-RFLP method and compare the results with those for 1216 healthy Japanese control subjects. The modified PCR-RFLP method produced accurate, reproducible cleavage patterns that are easily discriminated. HLA-DRB1*0410 was the susceptibility allele (RR = 3.26, P = 0.006) and DQB1*0602 appears to be a candidate protective allele (RR = 0.26, P = 0.02) for TGC in the Japanese. None of the HLA-DRB1 and -DQB1 alleles showed a specific tendency for histological type or clinical stage of the tumours. Previous studies based on serotyping methods failed to show these allelic associations. High-resolution genotyping is essential because the peptide-binding domain of MHC class II molecules is determined more precisely by their genotypes than by their serotypes. In addition, inherent technical difficulties and typing errors of up to 25% make serotyping inefficient. Our results suggest that high-resolution genotyping is a useful genetic marker to determine risk for TGC.
