Department of Medicine, Lundquist Institute at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, Los Angeles.
Background: Coronary artery dominance is determined by the coronary artery emitting the posterior descending artery. In the left dominant system, a greater proportion of coronary flow enters the left coronary artery, potentially influencing calcified plaque development in the left anterior descending artery (LAD).
Methods: This retrospective single-center cohort study analyzed patients who underwent computed tomography angiography from September 2006 to December 2022 at Harbor-UCLA in Los Angeles, California.
The labyrinth: Searching for a way out through the defences.
Int J Psychoanal
December 2024
Rio de Janeiro.
The following text describes an analysis, ongoing for three years now, of a boy currently 12 years old, whose projective-expulsive functioning becomes evident through rude and vulgar words. The image of the Cretan labyrinth and its meanders, created by Daedalus as a "protection" against the ferocity of the Minotaur, were the inspiration for this narrative. The intricate defences that imprison the patient, with their characteristics of pathological organisation, resemble a labyrinth, and through this path, the analyst and the patient go on confronting the difficulties of the process.

Introduction: The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which began in early 2020, and the outbreak of war in Ukraine in 2022 (a country bordering Poland on the east) have significantly impacted the mental health of young people in Poland, leading to increased rates of depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues. The rising number of individuals struggling to cope with daily stressors, as well as non-normative stressors, may indicate a decrease in the individual's potential, specifically in skills, attitudes, and competencies required to overcome difficulties that they encounter. It can be assumed that for young people, maintaining mental health under the influence of social stressors, such as the pandemic and the ongoing war in Ukraine, depends on the ability to adapt positively, which is the ability of young individuals to adjust to situational demands in a way that allows them to effectively manage those situations.
