Recently within social cognition it has been argued that understanding others is primarily characterized by dynamic and second person interactive processes, rather than by taking a third person observational stance. Within this enactivist view of intersubjective understanding, researchers differ in their claims regarding the innateness of such processes. Here we proposed to distinguish nativist...

AIM To assess the value of contrast versus plain radiography in determining radio-opaque long line tip position in neonates. METHODS In a prospective study, plain radiography was performed after insertion of radio-opaque long lines. If the line tip was not visible on the plain film, a second film with contrast was obtained in an attempt to visualise the tip. RESULTS Sixty eight lines were i...

while for a long time it has been perceived that neonates and young children do not perceive pain as the adult, this notion had to be corrected on the basis of neurophysiological data and the ontogenisis of the nociceptive system. also, it has been demonstrated conclusively that neonates and the young infant perceive pain at a much lower nociceptive input which is largely due to a still immatur...

from october 1977 to december 1988, 108 neonates born with esophageal atresia (ea) and/or a tracheoesophageal fistula (tef) were treated at the bristol royal hospital for sick children. an incidence of i :4000-4500 live births was noted. 1i2.4% had the common- type anomaly, 5.5% had pure esophageal atresia, and 6.5% had an h-type anomaly. 2.8% had upper and lower fistulae and 2.8% had upper fis...

Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) have become a routine in intensive care units. Although very effective, they can have life threatening complications like migration, breakage, thrombosis and colonisation [1]. The tip position of PICC lines must always be confirmed. Fluoroscopic placement is ideal, but cannot be done at the bedside and is costly [2]. Single antero-posterior radiogr...
