Disentangling autonomy-supportive and psychologically controlling parenting: A meta-analysis of self-determination theory's dual process model across cultures.

Self-determination theory's (SDT) dual process model claims that parental autonomy support relates positively to child well-being, while psychologically controlling parenting is linked positively to child ill-being. We tested these claims using a combination of one-stage and univariate meta-analytic structural equation modeling with moderation ( = 238; = 1,040, = 126,423). In the univariate models, parental autonomy support was linked positively with child well-being, = 0.

Impact of a mindfulness-based intervention on well-being and mental health of elementary school children: results from a randomized cluster trial.

Prevention programs, such as mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs), are often implemented in schools to prevent psychological disorders from emerging in children and to support their mental health. This study used a randomized cluster design to evaluate the impact of a MBI, called Mission Méditation, on the well-being and the mental health of elementary school children's. 13 classrooms of an elementary school were randomly allocated to the experimental condition (7 classrooms, n = 127 students) or the waitlist control condition (6 classrooms, n = 104 students).

Perceived Parenting and Borderline Personality Features during Adolescence.

This study investigates the associations between perceived parenting and borderline personality disorder (BPD) in adolescents. The relations between components of parenting and BPD features were explored. Participants (N = 270; mean age = 15.

Philosophy for children and mindfulness during COVID-19: Results from a randomized cluster trial and impact on mental health in elementary school students.

Background: Preliminary evidence suggests that the COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative impact on children's mental health. Given these problems can have significant impacts throughout the lifespan, preventing the negative repercussions of COVID-19 on children's mental health is essential. Philosophy for children (P4C) and mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) show promise in this regard.

How to talk so kids will listen & listen so kids will talk: a randomized controlled trial evaluating the efficacy of the how-to parenting program on children's mental health compared to a wait-list control group.

Background: Basic parenting research reveals that child mental health is associated with optimal parenting, which is composed of three key dimensions (structure, affiliation and autonomy support). The present study aims to test the efficacy of the parenting program "How to talk so kids will listen & listen so kids will talk" (French version), thought to address all of these dimensions, in promoting children's mental health. We predict that the How-to Parenting Program will promote child mental health by fostering optimal parenting.

A Mindfulness-Based Intervention Pilot Feasibility Study for Elementary School Students With Severe Learning Difficulties: Effects on Internalized and Externalized Symptoms From an Emotional Regulation Perspective.

Objective: Students with severe learning disabilities often show signs of anxiety, depression, and problem behaviors such as inattention and conduct problems. Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) in school settings constitute a promising option to alleviate these co-occurring symptoms. This pilot study aimed to evaluate the impact of an MBI on symptoms and behaviors of elementary school students with severe learning disabilities.

The Benefits of Supporting the Autonomy of Individuals with Mild Intellectual Disabilities: An Experimental Study.

Background: The benefits of autonomy support with the general population have been demonstrated numerous times. However, little research has been conducted to verify if these benefits apply to people with special needs.

Methods: The goal of the study was to examine whether autonomy support (AS) can foster the sense of autonomy of people with a mild intellectual disabilities (MIDs) and improve their experience while engaging in an important but unpleasant learning activity.

[The blood donors' haemovigilance in France].

This work aim to present the descriptive analysis of serious adverse reactions in donors (dSAR's), which were notified in 2010 and 2011 in the French national haemovigilance database "e-FIT" (Internet secured haemovigilance reporting system). Some data, which are necessary for this analysis, also come from the regional haemovigilance coordinators' reports (RHC). The other parts of haemovigilance in the context of donation, without donors adverse reactions, such as post-donation information (PDI), adverse events occurred in the blood collection steps of the transfusion chain and epidemiology are not subject to this work analysis.

Overview of revised measures to prevent malaria transmission by blood transfusion in France.

Plasmodial transmission by blood donation is rare in non-endemic countries, but a very serious complication of blood transfusion. The French national blood service (Etablissement Français du Sang and Centre de Transfusion sanguine des Armees) intended to revise the measures to strengthen blood safety with regard to Plasmodiae as transmissible pathogens. To limit the risk of transmission during infusion, serious additive measures have been taken for more than a decade in France, which is the European country with the highest rate of exposure to imported plasmodial infections or malaria.

Controlling parenting and physical aggression during elementary school.

The goal of the present study was to examine whether controlling parenting contributes to the problem of physical aggression. Developmental trajectories of children's physical aggression were modeled from yearly teachers' ratings, from ages 6 to 12. Multinomial logistic regressions (N = 1,508) served to identify risk factors that distinguish children who display different levels of physical aggression throughout grade school.

[Chagas disease: screening tests evaluation in a blood military center, prevalence in the French Army].

Chagas disease is a major public health problem in Latin and Central America, 15 to 20 million people are affected and some 100 million is at risk of acquiring Chagas disease. Chagas disease starts to appear in amazonian area and french Guyana. Three kits: Elisa Novagnost (Dade Behring), BioElisa Chagas (Orgentec) et Elisa Cruzi (BioMérieux) were compared using performance panel.

New approach to radiation burn treatment by dosimetry-guided surgery combined with autologous mesenchymal stem cell therapy.

The therapeutic management of severe radiation burns remains a challenging issue. Conventional surgical treatment (excision and skin autograft or rotation flap) often fails to prevent unpredictable and uncontrolled extension of the radiation necrotic process. We report here an innovative therapeutic strategy applied to the victim of a radiation accident (December 15, 2005) with an iridium gammagraphy radioactive source (192Ir, 3.

Regulatory dysfunction of the interleukin-7 receptor in CD4 and CD8 lymphocytes from HIV-infected patients--effects of antiretroviral therapy.

Despite an increase in plasma IL-7 levels, the CD4 T-cell pool decrease progressively in HIV-infected patients. Here we report on our tests to check the hypothesis that defects in the IL-7 receptor system might be involved in this phenomenon. The cell surface expression of CD127 was measured ex vivo in CD4 and CD8 T lymphocytes drawn from 3 groups of HIV patients.

[One case report of anti-JK1 antibody undetected on plasma sample].

The sensitivity of the detection of irregular antibodies (DIA) is one of the fundamental bases of transfusion safety. Its implementation is specified in accordance with a very specific framework that allows the use of serum or plasma. The case reported here points out a failure to detect irregular antibodies in plasma sample.

CD127 expression and regulation are altered in the memory CD8 T cells of HIV-infected patients--reversal by highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART).

HIV infection activates abnormally the immune system and the chronic phase is accompanied by marked alterations in the CD8 compartment. The expression of CD127 (IL-7R alpha chain) by memory CD8 T lymphocytes in HIV-infected patients is analysed and reported. The memory CD8 T cell subset was characterized by expression of CD45RA and CD27 markers, and CD127 cell surface expression was measured ex vivo by four-colour flow cytometry.

A longitudinal study of the relationship of maternal autonomy support to children's adjustment and achievement in school.

A longitudinal study examined the relations of maternal autonomy support to children's school adjustment. Autonomy support and other parenting dimensions were measured when children were 5 years old. School measures were teacher-rated academic and social adjustment and achievement in reading and math in grade 3.

[French training program for medical students in transfusion medicine. Transfusion Medicine Teachers' College].

In France, transfusion medicine training program has been updated. A national committee of professors in transfusion medicine propose a series of 13 items which represent the minimum knowledge that general practitioners should possess. This overview of transfusion medicine is far below the level that specialists should reach and they will need an additional specialized training.

[Blood transfusion security: one train may conceal another!].

The discovery of antibodies with specificities that are directed toward antigens of high prevalence is a difficult situation to manage in emergency blood transfusion. The reactions they produce interfere with the identification of reactions due to other, clinically significant antibodies. We report a case which illustrates this problem in terms of transfusion safety and time to carry out the tests.

Defective interleukin-2-dependent STAT5 signalling in CD8 T lymphocytes from HIV-positive patients: restoration by antiretroviral therapy.

Background: CD8 T lymphocytes are critical in the control of HIV replication and disease progression. Our previous studies demonstrated that CD8 T cells from chronically infected patients with high virus load proliferated poorly in response to interleukin-2 (IL-2), a cytokine critical in CD8 T cell growth and differentiation, even though relatively high levels of IL-2 receptor (IL-2R) were expressed. This suggested that signal transduction defects in response to IL-2 might be involved.

[Comparison of techniques used to screen blood donations for malaria antibodies].

In France all but one of the serological tests used to screen blood donations rely on ELISA-based techniques. The exception is malaria antibody detection that is performed by the indirect fluorescent antibody technique using commercially available kits. The reagent kit used at the French Army Blood Bank (FABB) is Falciparum-Spot IF (bioMerieux).

Introducing uninteresting tasks to children: a comparison of the effects of rewards and autonomy support.

Two experiments compared rewards and autonomy support as methods to promote children's self-regulation for an uninteresting vigilance task. Dependent measures were ratings of positive affect, perception of the task's value, and free-choice engagement. ANOVA results revealed some positive effects associated with autonomy support, whereas no effect for rewards was found in either study.

Quality assessment of seven types of fresh-frozen plasma leucoreduced by specific plasma filtration.

Background And Objectives: A study was undertaken to determine plasma quality after specific filtration.

Materials And Methods: Seven types of plasma were tested, after filtration of plasma from filtered or non-filtered whole blood. Leucocyte counting was carried out after a 30-fold concentration of the sample.

[Specificity of immunofluorescent methods detecting malarial antibodies: comparative study in the screening of blood donations].

Unlabelled: In France, no case of transfusion-transmitted malaria has been reported since 1994, reflecting the efficiency of the blood donations screening. However, an insufficiently specific serological assay leads to an unjustified loss of red cell units.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective study included 55 sera previously disqualified for the presence of malarial antibodies.

[Transfusional record and blood grouping methods: essential factors of transfusion safety].

The clinical and biological control of the whole transfusion process is a major preoccupation for everyone dealing with blood transfusion. Specially when the patient is a female recipient or belongs to a group with a high prevalence of alloimmunisation. This case report points out the outstanding importance of the immune compatibility, which must be strongly maintained to prevent any harmful consequences.
