Zobrazování trendů z oblasti estetické medicíny ve vybraných českých specializovaných časopisech Estetika a Health a Beauty / Image of trends in the field of aesthetic medicine in selected czech specialized magazines Estetika and Health and Beauty

Vodáková, Lucie January 2016 (has links)
Thesis "Presentation of trends in aesthetic medicine in selected specialized Czech magazines Estetika and Health & Beauty" deals with representation and media portrayal of female beauty and a current lifestyle to which more and more women adhere. It is a lifestyle in which body care plays a significant role. This paper analyzes trends in the two most famous Czech magazines devoted to aesthetic dermatology and plastic surgery - Estetika and Health & Beauty. The work aims to analyze these two magazines and find out how they portray these selected trends and which methods they most frequently use to persuade women to undergo surgery. It also tries to expound media representations of ideal beauty and the influence of the media on people. With regard to the objectives the work is divided into three parts: theoretical part, methodological part and empirically analytical part, or more precisely, the research part. The theoretical part comprises the conception of beauty in connection to human body. It examines the development of ideal beauty and the perception of the female body throughout the centuries. All of this is observed in regard to contemporary influence of media on people. It deals with social and medial constructions of reality and the possible influence of media on female self-esteem.

Avaliação da expressão dos fatores angiogênicos VEGF a e seus receptores e FGFB em tecido hepático de pacientes com atresia biliar

Edom, Patrícia Turnes January 2009 (has links)
A atresia biliar (AB) é uma colangiopatia de etiologia indeterminada que leva à necessidade de transplante hepático, mesmo com a realização da Portoenterostomia em tempo hábil. O espessamento da camada média da artéria hepática sugere o envolvimento de um distúrbio angiogênico. Este estudo objetivou avaliar a expressão imunoistoquímica do VEGF A e seus receptores nas estruturas hepatobiliares de pacientes com AB. Nós avaliamos, por método semiquantitativo, a positividade do VEGF A, VEGFR1 e VEGFR2 em biópsia de fígados obtidas por ocasião da Portoenterostomia de crianças com AB (n=52),com (n=14) e sem (n=38) malformação extra-hepáticas. Seviram como controles, pacientes com colestase intra-hepática (CI)\ (n=7). A positividade do VEGFA foi também avaliada em explantes (n=33) e porta hepatis (n=16) de pacientes com AB. Avaliamos morfometricamente as variáveis positividade de CK7 (PCK7) em biópsia de pacientes com AB e a relação espessura da camada média arterial/ diâmetro luminal (REMD) em ramos da artéria hepática de pacientes com AB e de pacientes com CI. Nós encontramos que a positividade do VEGF A foi maior em pacientes com AB por ocasião da Portoenterostomia (p=0, 006) que nos outros grupos, enquanto que nos explantes, a positividade de VEGF A foi maior no parênquima (P<0.001). A positividade do VEGFR2 em ducto biliares e hepatócitos foi menor em pacientes com AB que nos casos de CI (P=0.023 e P=0.011, respectivamente). Maior positividade de CK7 ocorreu em pacientes com artérias e estruturas biliares positivas para VEGF A (P<0.001 e P=0.040, respectivamente). Nos pacientes com AB por ocasião da Portoenterostomia a positividade do VEGF A em estruturas biliares, artérias e hepatócitos correlacionou-se com PCK7 (P=0.031, P=0.031 e P=0.032, respectivamente). O VEGF A foi expresso no porta hepatis de pacientes com AB em artérias e em ductos biliares, principalmente nos pacientes sem malformações extra-hepáticas (P=0.013). A positividade do VEGF A associou-se com a maior REMD (P=0.016 e P=0.044, respectivamente). Nossos achados sugerem que a colangiopatia isquêmica, agravada pela proliferação biliar, ocorre na AB por ocasião da Portoenterostomia, começando no porta hepatis. O espessamento da camada média arterial está associada à expressão do VEGF A. / In Biliary atresia (BA) a cholangiopathy of elusive etiology leads to the need of liver transplantation regardless of timely performance of Portoenterostomy; hepatic arterial medial thickening suggests involvement of a disturbed angiogenesis. This study aimed to evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of VEGF A and its receptors in hepatobiliary structures in BA. We semiquantitatively analyzed the positivity rate of VEGF A, VEGF-R1 and -R2 in liver biopsies obtained at Portoenterostomy from infants with BA (n=52), with (n=14) and without (n=38) extrahepatic malformations. Controls were infants with intrahepatic cholestasis (IC, n=7). VEGF A positivity was also evaluated in explants (n=33) and at porta hepatis (n=16) from patients with BA. We morphometrically assessed the variables percentage of CK-7 positivity (PCK7) in biopsies from patients with BA, and the ratio medial layer thickness/luminal diameter (RMED) in hepatic arterial branches from infants with BA and IC. We found that arterial VEGF A positivity was higher in patients with BA at the time of Portoenterostomy (P=0.006) than in other groups, while explants’parenchyma presented the highest VEGF A positivity (P<0.001). Biliary and hepatocytic VEGFR2 positivity was lower in BA than IC (P=0.023 and P=0.011, respectively). Higher PCK7 occurred in arterial and biliary VEGF A-positive patients (P<0.001 and P=0.040, respectively). Biliary, arterial and hepatocytic VEGF A positivity in BA at Portoenterostomy was correlated with PCK7 (P=0.031, P=0.031 and P=0.032, respectively). VEGF A was expressed at porta hepatis from BA patients in arteries, and, in bile ducts mainly in patients without extrahepatic malformations (P=0.013). Biliary and arterial VEGF A positivity was associated with higher RMED (P=0.016 and P=0.044, respectively). Our findings suggest that an ischemic cholangiopathy, aggravated by biliary proliferation, exists in BA at the time of Portoenterostomy, beginning at porta hepatis. Medial layer thickening is associated with VEGF A expression.

Rôle d'un circuit hippocampo-cortico-thalamique dans les processus de mémoire spatiale chez le rat / Role of a hippocampal-cortical-thalamic circuit in spatial memory processes in the rat

Cholvin, Thibault 22 September 2014 (has links)
Cette thèse avait pour objectif d’étudier le rôle du circuit composé de l’hippocampe (Hip), du cortex préfrontal médian (mPFC) et des noyaux reuniens et rhomboïde (ReRh) du thalamus dans les processus cognitifs qui sous-tendent la mémoire spatiale chez le Rat. Nous avons montré que les noyaux ReRh pourraient être impliqués dans la consolidation systémique, mécanisme nécessaire à la persistance des souvenirs et nécessitant un dialogue hippocampo-cortical. Nous avons mis en évidence que l’activité neuronale du mPFC durant le rappel d’une mémoire ancienne dépend des noyaux ReRh, ainsi que l’implication de ces noyaux dans une tâche de mémoire spatiale (dépendante de l’Hip) nécessitant une flexibilité comportementale (impliquant le mPFC). Enfin, nous avons montré un rôle du mPFC dans le rappel d’une mémoire spatiale récente. Ces résultats mettent en évidence l’importance de ce circuit hippocampo-cortico-thalamique dans le traitement et la persistance des informations spatiales chez le Rat. / This thesis aimed to investigate the role of a circuit encompassing the hippocampus (Hip), the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and the reuniens and rhomboid nuclei (ReRh) of the thalamus in cognitive processes underlying spatial memory in rats. We first showed that ReRh nuclei may be involved in systemic consolidation, a mechanism necessary for memory persistence and requiring hippocampal-cortical interactions. We confirmed these findings in a second study showing that mPFC neuronal activity during recall of a remote spatial memory depends on ReRh thalamic nuclei. We also showed the involvement of the ReRh nuclei in a mnemonic task requiring the use of both spatial information (dependent on the Hip) and behavioral flexibility (involving the mPFC). Finally, we found a role of the mPFC in the recall of recent spatial memory. Taken together, these results highlight the importance of a hippocampo-cortico-thalamic circuit in the processing and persistence of spatial information in the Rat.

La modification de la méthylation de l'ADN régule le comportement d'auto-administration de cocaïne chez le rat : caratérisation des gènes impliqués / Modification of DNA methylation regulates cocaine self-administration in rats : characterization of genes involved

Fonteneau, Mathieu 24 September 2014 (has links)
La plasticité cérébrale pathologique qui se met en place en réponse à l'administration répétée de drogue nécessite des modifications de l’expression des gènes, au moyen,entre autres, de mécanismes épigénétiques tels que la méthylation de l’ADN. Dans ces travaux, nous avons montré que l’inhibition des ADN méthyl transférases par la 5-aza-2’-désoxycytidine augmentait les propriétés renforçantes de la cocaïne dans un protocole d’auto-administration intraveineuse, et ce, sans affecter la motivation des rats pour la cocaïne, ni la réactivation du comportement de recherche après une période de sevrage.L’analyse du méthylome dans le cortex préfrontal médian nous a permis de caractériser près de 190000 régions génomiques différentiellement méthylées suite au traitement par la cocaïne, en association ou non avec la 5-aza-2’-désoxycytidine. Nous avons sélectionné une vingtaine de régions situées soit dans les promoteurs soit au sein de gènes participant à la plasticité neuronale. L’analyse de la transcription de ces gènes a permis, pour certains d’entre eux, de corréler les variations de méthylation avec celles d’expression, comme dans le cas du gène Hdac2. / Repeated drug administration lead to pathological brain plasticity that requires modifications of gene expression through, among others, epigenetic mechanisms such DNA methylation. Here, we showed that DNA methyltransferases inhibitors such 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine increase reinforcing properties of cocaine in an intravenous self administration paradigm without affecting the motivation of rats for the drug, nor drug seeking after withdrawal. The analysis of the methylome in the medial prefrontal cortex allowed us to identify approximatively 190000 differentially methylated genomic regions in response to cocaine treatment, in association or not with 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine. We selected around twenty regions within promoters or body of genes known to participate in neuronal plasticity. The study of the transcription of these genes permitted for some of them to correlate the modifications of the DNA methylation with the modifications of the expression, like, for example, in the case of the gene Hdac2.

Efficient Feature Extraction for Shape Analysis, Object Detection and Tracking

Solis Montero, Andres January 2016 (has links)
During the course of this thesis, two scenarios are considered. In the first one, we contribute to feature extraction algorithms. In the second one, we use features to improve object detection solutions and localization. The two scenarios give rise to into four thesis sub-goals. First, we present a new shape skeleton pruning algorithm based on contour approximation and the integer medial axis. The algorithm effectively removes unwanted branches, conserves the connectivity of the skeleton and respects the topological properties of the shape. The algorithm is robust to significant boundary noise and to rigid shape transformations. It is fast and easy to implement. While shape-based solutions via boundary and skeleton analysis are viable solutions to object detection, keypoint features are important for textured object detection. Therefore, we present a keypoint featurebased planar object detection framework for vision-based localization. We demonstrate that our framework is robust against illumination changes, perspective distortion, motion blur, and occlusions. We increase robustness of the localization scheme in cluttered environments and decrease false detection of targets. We present an off-line target evaluation strategy and a scheme to improve pose. Third, we extend planar object detection to a real-time approach for 3D object detection using a mobile and uncalibrated camera. We develop our algorithm based on two novel naive Bayes classifiers for viewpoint and feature matching that improve performance and decrease memory usage. Our algorithm exploits the specific structure of various binary descriptors in order to boost feature matching by conserving descriptor properties. Our novel naive classifiers require a database with a small memory footprint because we only store efficiently encoded features. We improve the feature-indexing scheme to speed up the matching process creating a highly efficient database for objects. Finally, we present a model-free long-term tracking algorithm based on the Kernelized Correlation Filter. The proposed solution improves the correlation tracker based on precision, success, accuracy and robustness while increasing frame rates. We integrate adjustable Gaussian window and sparse features for robust scale estimation creating a better separation of the target and the background. Furthermore, we include fast descriptors and Fourier spectrum packed format to boost performance while decreasing the memory footprint. We compare our algorithm with state-of-the-art techniques to validate the results.

Planification préopératoire pour ostéotomies autour du genou : d’un modèle numérique tridimensionnel à l’industrialisation de guides patient-spécifique / Preoperative planning for osteotomies around the knee : from a 3D numerical model to patient-specific guides industrialisation

Donnez, Mathias 24 October 2018 (has links)
L’Ostéotomie Tibiale de Valgisation (OTV) par ouverture médiale est un traitement conservatif efficace dans le traitement de la gonarthrose médiale chez le patient jeune et actif présentant un défaut d’alignement du membre inférieur. Ce défaut entraine un déséquilibre dans la répartition des charges transitant dans le genou et est un facteur de risque la gonarthrose. L’objectif est de corriger l’alignement en corrigeant une déformation osseuse du tibia proximal. Une coupe osseuse médiolatérale incomplète partant du bord médial de la métaphyse tibiale et orientée vers l’articulation tibio-fibulaire permet de créer une ouverture sur le bord médial par rotation autour de la charnière latérale, épaisseur d’os non-coupée sur le bord latéral. L’importance de l’ouverture dépend de la déformation osseuse et du stade d’arthrose. La réussite de l’OTV par ouverture médiale est conditionnée par une correction précise, un montage d’ostéosynthèse stable et une charnière latérale préservée pendant l’ouverture. L’objectif de cette thèse était de proposer une méthodologie de planification préopératoire à associer à une instrumentation patient-spécifique réalisée en impression 3D. Cette instrumentation devait permettre d’appliquer la correction souhaitée dans les plans frontal et sagittal mais aussi de préserver la charnière latérale pendant la chirurgie. Nos résultats ont montré, grâce aux études in-vitro et in-vivo réalisées au cours de la thèse, que le guide de coupe patient-spécifique développé permet de reproduire avec précision la planification préopératoire en apportant de la sécurité au geste opératoire tant au niveau de la précision que de la préservation de la charnière latérale. / Medial Opening Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy (MOWHTO) is an efficient conservative surgical treatment for young and active patients with moderate medial gonarthrosis and varus lower limb malalignment. Varus malalignment unbalances load distribution in the knee, which is a gonarthrosis risk factor. MOWHTO aims to correct the lower limb alignment by correcting the proximal tibia bony deformity. Incomplete mediolateral cut is performed in the proximal tibia from the medial side of the tibial metaphysis towards the tibiofibular joint, and then opened by rotation around the lateral hinge which is the remaining uncut bone thickness on the lateral side. Amount of the opening depends on the importance of the proximal tibial deformity and on the medial gonarthrosis stage. MOWHTO success remains on precise correction, stable osteosynthesis system and lateral hinge preservation during the opening. Objective of this thesis was to propose a preoperative planning methodology to be associated with 3D printed patientspecific instrumentation. This instrumentation was intended to apply the correction chosen by the surgeon in the frontal and sagittal planes, but also to preserve the lateral hinge during the surgery. Our in-vitro and in-vivo results have shown that the developed patient-specific cutting guide make it possible to accurately reproduce the preoperative planning with security to the surgical gesture by bringing accuracy and lateral hinge preservation.

Les ostéoclastes et leur rôle dans le développement des kystes sous-chondraux du condyle fémoral médial équin juvénile

Fortin-Trahan, Rosalie 12 1900 (has links)
Les ostéoclastes, les seules cellules capables de résorber l’os, sont soupçonnés d’être associés au développement et à la progression des radiotransparences sous-chondrales (SR). Ils n’ont par contre jamais été étudiés in situ. Les objectifs de cette étude cadavérique ex vivo étaient de mesurer et de comparer la densité ostéoclastique et le pourcentage de chondroclastes se trouvant à différentes profondeurs de l’os sous-chondral à partir de la surface articulaire dans le condyle fémoral médial (CFM) de chevaux Pur-sang juvéniles sains et atteints de SR hâtives spontanées. Les spécimens provenaient d’une banque de tissus et faisaient partie d’une étude précédente sur les caractéristiques structurelles des SR. La tomodensitométrie identifiait les CFM atteints de SR (n=6) et guidait les coupes ostéochondrales. Les contrôles de l’étude étaient composés d’un site histologiquement normal et caudal à la lésion (n=6) et du site controlatéral à la lésion dans le CFM sain (n=5). Après la décalcification et la fixation dans la paraffine, les spécimens étaient colorés à l’immunohistochimie afin de mettre en évidence les ostéoclastes présents dans l’os en périphérie des SR. Les spécimens étaient ensuite séparés en régions d’intérêt (ROI) à différentes profondeurs de l’os sous-chondral: ROI1 (0-1mm), ROI2 (1-3mm) et ROI3 (3-6mm). Les ostéoclastes ont été comptés dans chaque ROI pour calculer leur densité ostéoclastique respective. Les lames ont été contre-colorées avec la Safranine afin d’identifier le cartilage et mesurer le pourcentage de chondroclastes. La densité ostéoclastique était statistiquement plus élevée dans la ROI1 comparativement à la ROI3 dans tous les groupes. Cependant, aucune différence significative n’a été détectée en comparant les ROI entre les groupes, même si la densité ostéoclastique était supérieure dans la ROI1 des SR. Malgré une proportion de chondroclastes dans la ROI1 des SR inférieure à celle des contrôles, aucune différence significative n’a été détectée. La limite principale de cette étude se révéla être la taille de l’échantillon. Nos résultats démontrent cependant que la pathophysiologie des SR n’est pas uniquement expliquée par l’augmentation du nombre d’ostéoclastes dans l’os sous-chondral en périphérie des lésions. / There is a knowledge gap concerning how and when equine medial femoral condyle (MFC) subchondral radiolucencies (SR) arise and evolve. Osteoclasts, the only cells capable of bone resorption, are believed to have a role, but have not been studied in situ. The objectives of this ex vivo cadaveric study were to measure and compare the osteoclast density and the percentage of chondroclasts in juvenile (<1 year) Thoroughbred MFCs at varying depths from the weightbearing articular surface in both healthy and early spontaneous MFC SR specimens. The MFCs were available in a tissue bank and were part of a prior study of the structural characteristics of SRs. Computed tomography permitted identification of MFC SR (n=6) and guided osteochondral slab sections. Controls included a histologically normal site caudal to the lesions (n=6) and the healthy contralateral MFC lesion site (n=5). Following decalcification, paraffin embedding sections were cut and stained immunohistochemically with Cathepsin K to permit osteoclast identification and counting. The sections were divided into regions of interest (ROI) at different depths in the subchondral bone from the osteochondral junction: ROI1 (0-1mm), ROI2 (1-3mm) and ROI3 (3-6mm). Osteoclasts were counted in each ROI in order to calculate an osteoclast density. A Safranin-O counterstain was performed to identify the cartilage and measure the chondroclasts percentage. Osteoclast density was significantly higher in ROI1 when compared with ROI3 in all groups. When ROIs were compared between the three groups, no statistically significant differences were detected, even if a visible pattern difference and higher osteoclast density values were recorded in ROI1 in SRs. However, although the proportion of chondroclasts in ROI1 was lower in the SR sections when compared with controls, no significant difference was detected. The main limitation was the limited sample size. Osteoclasts are important actors in MFC subchondral bone development, digesting both growth cartilage (chondroclasts) and bone, but the pathophysiology of early MFC SRs cannot be explained solely by an increased osteoclast presence in the peripheral subchondral bone.
