BACKGROUND Children's early problem behavior that manifests in multiple contexts is often more serious and stable. The concurrent and predictive validity of ratings of externalizing and internalizing by four informants was examined at preschool and early school age in an at-risk sample. METHODS Two hundred forty children were assessed by mothers and fathers (Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL)), ...

We here review the literature on Child Behaviour Checklist-Dysregulation Profile (CBCL-DP) index, which potentially represents a developmental profile of major psychopathology in early adulthood. The understanding of the neural underpinnings of children and adolescents with altered regulation of affect and behaviour may ultimately help in planning strategies to prevent psychiatric syndromes dur...

OBJECTIVES This pilot study explored the relationship between parental therapeutic alliance, maternal attachment style and child and family functioning in a sample of families with a child aged five to twelve years receiving child psychiatry day hospital treatment for complex co-morbid disorders. METHOD Self-report measures of therapeutic alliance, maternal attachment style, child behaviour a...

The increasing number of living cutaneous melanoma patients and the increased risk of developing a second primary tumour incited us to analyse the clinical characteristics of cutaneous melanoma and define the frequency, site, and type of second primary cancers in cutaneous melanoma patients. We collected data on patients who visited the Department of Dermatology at the Radboud University Nijmeg...

1. The organization and pattern of cutaneous reflex modulation during rhythmic cyclical movements of the human upper limbs has received much less attention than that afforded the lower limb. Our working hypothesis is that control mechanisms underlying the modulation of cutaneous reflex amplitude during rhythmic arm movement are similar to those that control reflex modulation in the leg. Thus, w...

Malignant lymphomas that secondarily involve the skin are relatively common and may be difficult to distinguish from primary skin lymphomas. While the morphologic features of primary and secondary lymphomas of the skin are often very similar, the clinical behavior of primary and secondary disease is often dramatically different. Although large series of secondary cutaneous lymphomas are uncommo...

Cutaneous diphtheria is uncommon in Europe. In this study, we report a case of imported cutaneous infection due to a non-toxigenic but tox gene-bearing (NTTB) strain of Corynebacterium diphtheriae. The NTTB strains are recognized as emerging pathogens across Europe, and physicians and bacteriologists should be aware of the circulation of these strains.

b-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (b-lbl) is an uncommon subtype of pediatric non-hodgkin lymphoma (nhl) which rarely involves the skin primarily. the positron emission tomography with 2-deoxy-2-[fluorine- 18] fluoro-d: -glucose integrated with computed tomography (18f-fdg pet/ct) scan findings of a 8-year-old boy with cutaneous b-lbl were presented. pet/ct scan demonstrated mild fdg uptake in the ...

Abstract B-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LBL) is an uncommon subtype of pediatric non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) which rarely involves the skin primarily. The positron emission tomography with 2-deoxy-2-[fluorine- 18] fluoro-D: -glucose integrated with computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) scan findings of a 8-year-old boy with cutaneous B-LBL were presented. PET/CT scan demonstrated mild FDG up...

BACKGROUND The dermatoscopic features of facial lentigo maligna (LM), facial lentigo maligna melanoma (LMM) and acral lentiginous melanoma (ALM) have been well described. This is the first description of the dermatoscopic appearance of a clinical series of cutaneous non-facial non-acral lentiginous growth pattern melanomas. OBJECTIVE To describe the dermatoscopic features of a series of cutan...
