What can long-term follow-up teach us about relapse and prevention of relapse in addiction?
This article reviews the treatment history of 100 hospital-treated heroin addicts and 100 hospital-treated alcohol-dependent individuals. The two cohorts were prospectively followed for 20 and 12 years respectively and factors related to relapse and freedom from relapse were sought. Premorbid social stability, especially stable employment history, proved a more effective predictor of long-term ...
متن کاملWhat haplodiploids can teach us about hybridization and speciation
Most evolutionary theory focuses on species that reproduce through sexual reproduction where both sexes have a diploid chromosome count. Yet a substantial proportion of multicellular species display complex life cycles, with both haploid and diploid life stages. A classic example is haplodiploidy, where females develop from fertilized eggs and are diploid, while males develop from unfertilized ...
متن کاملStability and relapse after orthodontic treatment of deep bite cases-a long-term follow-up study.
The purpose of this long-term follow-up study was twofold-firstly, to assess prevalence of relapse after treatment of deep bite malocclusion and secondly, to identify risk factors that predispose patients with deep bite malocclusion to relapse. Sixty-one former patients with overbite more than 50% incisor overlap before treatment were successfully recalled. Clinical data, morphometrical measure...
متن کاملWhat can spermatogonial transplants teach us about male reproductive biology?
In this issue of Endocrinology, there is a rapid communication by Mahato et al. (1) that addresses the issue of estrogen action directly on germinal cells in the testis. The authors transplanted germ cells from the testis of the estrogen receptor a (ERa) knockout mice into the seminiferous tubules of germ cell-depleted wild-type mice. The germ cells carrying the knockout mutation underwent qual...
متن کاملWhat atomic liquids can teach us about quark liquids
Over the last ten years there has been truly remarkable progress in the study of cold, dilute gases of fermionic atoms in which the scattering length a of the atoms can be controlled experimentally. These systems can be realized in the laboratory using Feshbach resonances, see1) for a review. A small negative scattering length corresponds to a weak attractive interaction between the atoms. This...
