Interoceptive sensibility, intuitive eating, binge, and disordered eating behavior among individuals with obesity: A comparative study with the general population.

The present study assessed the links between interoceptive sensibility, binge, disordered (emotional, restrained, and external) and intuitive eating among individuals with obesity ( = 57) and normal weight ( = 29). Individuals with obesity presented lower "attention regulation," "body-listening," and "trusting" interoceptive dimensions. When age was controlled, group differences on "trusting" remained significant.

Bodily sensations and bariatric surgery: Links between interoceptive sensibility, intuitive and disordered eating behaviour in obesity and obesity surgery.

Objective: This study evaluated interoceptive sensibility, intuitive and disordered eating among bariatric candidates, operated individuals and individuals with obesity seeking non-surgical treatment.

Method: We recruited 57 individuals with obesity seeking nonsurgical weight-loss (IOB), 84 bariatric candidates (Pre) and 22 individuals post-bariatric surgery (Post) who responded to questionnaires: Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness, Intuitive Eating Scale-2 (IES-2), Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire, Binge Eating Scale, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Beck's Depression Inventory.

Results: Overall, the Post group manifested higher scores on 'Body-Listening' (F = 4.

A Logical Modeling of Severe Ignorance.

In the logical context, ignorance is traditionally defined recurring to epistemic logic. In particular, ignorance is essentially interpreted as "lack of knowledge". This received view has - as we point out - some problems, in particular we will highlight how it does not allow to express a type of content-theoretic ignorance, i.

Beliefs about sleep: links with ruminations, nightmare, and anxiety.

Objective: Dysfunctional cognitions related to sleep play a major role in insomnia but also in nightmares. Moreover, they are closely related to anxiety. To our knowledge, no study has probed the impact of non-constructive ruminations on these dimensions in their harmful interplay with sleep.

Problematic Internet Use among Adults: A Cross-Cultural Study in 15 Countries.

Background: The present study compared adult usage patterns of online activities, the frequency rate of problematic internet use (PIU), and risk factors (including the psychopathology associated with PIU, i.e., distress and impulsivity) among adults in 15 countries from Europe, America, and Asia.

Perceptions Underlying Addictive Technology Use Patterns: Insights for Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy.

Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is considered the 'gold standard' in the treatment of addictive disorders related to excessive technology use. However, the cognitive components of problematic internet use are not yet well-known. The aim of the present study was to explore the cognitive components, that according to problematic users, can lead to potential internet addiction.

The Role of Interoceptive Attention and Appraisal in Interoceptive Regulation.

Interoception, i.e., the processing and integration of sensory information has gained research interest due to its relevance in the psychopathological context.

Comparing impulsivity in borderline personality, schizophrenia and obsessional-compulsive disorders: Who is ahead?

Objective: Impulsivity impacts life domains and in a psychiatric context is often associated with disorders severity and stigmatization. Borderline personality disorder's (BPD), Schizophrenic disorder's (SZD), and obsessional compulsive disorder's (OCD) impulsivity issues relate to worse prognosis. This study aims to compare these disorders assessing their proneness to impulsivity and urgency.

Impulsivity issues in borderline personality disorder and it's links with insight: the role of urgency.

Objective: Impulsivity plays a major role in a wide range of disorders including Borderline Personality Disorder. Another crucial clinical dimension is insight. This clinical dimension is linked with symptomatology and treatment issue.

The surgical treatment of unilateral vocal cord paralysis (UVCP): qualitative review analysis and meta-analysis study.

Purpose: The objectives of this meta-analysis were to summarize the key surgical procedures for UVCP and to evaluate which of these is associated with better results in terms of vocal improvement.

Methods: A systematic review of the literature was conducted in search of articles focused on the comparison of voice outcome between different techniques for the UVCP treatment. Then, a quantitative analysis was carried out for papers published from 2013 onwards, reporting only adult patients with unilateral paralysis for each study, and each surgical technique was evaluated for its capability of achieving good functional outcomes in terms of GRBAS-I scale and maximum phonation time in seconds (MPT).

Cross-Cultural Validation of the Compulsive Internet Use Scale in Four Forms and Eight Languages.

The 14-item Compulsive Internet Use Scale (CIUS) is one of the most frequently internationally adapted psychometric instruments developed to assess generalized problematic Internet use. Multiple adaptations of this instrument have led to versions in different languages (e.g.

Measurement Invariance of the Short Version of the Problematic Mobile Phone Use Questionnaire (PMPUQ-SV) across Eight Languages.

The prevalence of mobile phone use across the world has increased greatly over the past two decades. Problematic Mobile Phone Use (PMPU) has been studied in relation to public health and comprises various behaviours, including dangerous, prohibited, and dependent use. These types of problematic mobile phone behaviours are typically assessed with the short version of the Problematic Mobile Phone Use Questionnaire (PMPUQ⁻SV).

Cognitive, Emotional, and Auto-Activation Dimensions of Apathy in Parkinson's Disease.

Apathy is one of the most frequent non-motor manifestations in Parkinson's disease (PD) that can lead to a whole range of deleterious outcomes. In 2006, Levy and Dubois proposed a model that distinguishes three different apathy aetiologies in PD divided into three subtypes of disrupted processing: "emotional-affective," "cognitive," and "auto-activation." These three dimensions associated with dopamine depletion present in the pathology would lead to the emergence of apathy in PD.

Self-reported dependence on mobile phones in young adults: A European cross-cultural empirical survey.

Background and aims Despite many positive benefits, mobile phone use can be associated with harmful and detrimental behaviors. The aim of this study was twofold: to examine (a) cross-cultural patterns of perceived dependence on mobile phones in ten European countries, first, grouped in four different regions (North: Finland and UK; South: Spain and Italy; East: Hungary and Poland; West: France, Belgium, Germany, and Switzerland), and second by country, and (b) how socio-demographics, geographic differences, mobile phone usage patterns, and associated activities predicted this perceived dependence. Methods A sample of 2,775 young adults (aged 18-29 years) were recruited in different European Universities who participated in an online survey.

A New Radiologic Protocol and a New Occlusal Radiographic Index for Computer-Guided Implant Surgery.

A minimum interarch space of 40 mm along the planned direction of the implant is physically mandatory to allow computer-guided implant placement with the NobelGuide technique. The aim of this paper was to describe a novel radiologic protocol and a new occlusal radiographic index that give the clinician the possibility of identifying patients with limited interarch space. Three patients undergoing NobelGuide treatment of the edentulous upper jaw were selected as candidates for this study.

Lingual frenectomy: a comparison between the conventional surgical and laser procedure.

Aim: Ankyloglossia, commonly known as tongue-tie, is a congenital oral anomaly characterized by a short lingual frenulum that may contribute to feeding, speech and mechanical problems. The purpose of this study is to compare the advantages of laser vis-à-vis conventional frenectomy in both intra- and post-surgical phases.

Methods: This study took into consideration two patients, who were respectively 9 and 10-year-old.

[Is there an interpretational bias for childhood events in anxious adult patients?].

During anamnesis, we attempted often to include the events reported by the patients in our own functional explanation of the disorder. We forget on one hand that the patient reports events intrinsically linked to his pathology, and on the other hand, that an event could not be understood without its context. Concerning the links between the pathology and what is narrated, it is known for a long time that the anxious disorders modify the perception of world by some processes, like the fast detection of the threat in the environment.

[Treatment of adjustment disorder with anxiety: efficacy and tolerance of etifoxine in a double-blind controlled study].

Adjustment disorder with anxiety is defined as a clinically significant anxiety that occurs within 3 months after the onset of an identifiable psychological stressor. Recent studies indicate that this disorder is not uncommon and must be quickly identified and treated. However, few therapeutic trials have been done in relation with this disorder.

Detection of Epstein-Barr virus genome in sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma by use of in situ hybridization.

Associations between Epstein-Barr virus and undifferentiated carcinomas of nasopharynx, parotid gland, and thymus have recently been reported. Epstein-Barr virus has also been associated with malignant lymphoma of the nose and paranasal sinuses. These findings raise the possibility that Epstein-Barr virus may additionally be linked to undifferentiated carcinoma of the nose and paranasal sinuses (SNUC), an uncommon but distinctive and highly aggressive neoplasm.
