The reactions of father and/or mother at the time of the birth of the first son are here analysed (post partum "blue", "couvade", paternal acting and neurotic depressions). These manifestations are considered as masked depressive states. Analogies between the freudian concept of the mourning work and the work of becoming parents are seen as an internal process for both parents to consider all their losses (the role of the son, the privileged role of the pregnant woman, the exclusive relationship with the partner . . .). Two aspects are emphasised which correspond to different levels of involvement and to different clinical manifestations. An incapacity to establish a dual relationship is expressed in both father and mother with psychosis as an escape from the work of parenthood; problems and failures in such work are expressed as depressive manifestations which testify the obstacles to this elaboration.

Although in basic agreement with Murayama and Jach's call for greater attention to the black boxes underlying motivated behavior, we provide examples of our published suggestions regarding how subjective task value (and ability self-concepts) "gets into people's knowledge structures." We suggest additional mental computational processes to investigate and call for a developmental and situated individual differences approach to this work.

Due to the short de Broglie wavelength of electrons compared with X-rays, the curvature of their Ewald sphere is low, and individual electron diffraction patterns are nearly flat in reciprocal space. As a result, a reliable unit-cell determination from a set of randomly oriented electron diffraction patterns, an essential step in serial electron diffraction, becomes a non-trivial task. Here we describe an algorithm for unit-cell determination from a set of independent electron diffraction patterns, as implemented in the program PIEP (Program for Interpreting Electron diffraction Patterns), written in the early 1990s.

Early-onset colorectal cancer (CRC) has been on the rise since the start of the twenty-first century. While the etiology behind this increase remains unclear, the United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) has decreased the recommended age to begin screening for CRC to 45 years. This case report reviews the literature on CRC in the young population while presenting a case of a 21-year-old male with early-onset metastatic colorectal cancer without a hereditary etiology.

This article highlights the systematic impact of experienced and implicit affect on the intensity of mental effort. The key argument is that both consciously experienced affect and implicitly activated affect knowledge can influence responses in the cardiovascular system reflecting effort intensity by informing individuals about task demand-the key variable determining resource mobilization. According to the motivational intensity theory, effort rises with experienced demand as long as success is possible and the necessary effort is justified.

Objectives: Two different European Reference Networks cover CTDs with paediatric onset, the European Reference Network on Rare and Complex Connective Tissue Diseases (ERN ReCONNET) and the European Reference Network on Rare Immunological Disorders (ERN RITA). The transition of care is a significant focus, with ReCONNET centres actively addressing this through updated programs. Despite these efforts, challenges persist.
