Spiritual concerns are highly relevant, but often ignored, in psychotherapy in general and in suicide in particular. This article presents Internet data and clinical case material bearing on the topic, and describes an innovative therapeutic intervention administered in a group-workshop format with suicide survivors and mental health professionals. The technique incorporates relaxation and mindfulness meditation, with the addition of guided meditation in search of inner wisdom. Results of the group intervention are described and illustrated. Many participants reported a significant positive experience including connection to knowledge that was highly relevant to them in their current state of life. Whether such insights were experienced as coming from within (a deeper part of the self) or from an external source (a guiding figure or presence), indications are that guided meditation can be a powerful resource for therapists and their clients, suicidal and otherwise. Possible applications in diverse populations and settings, as well as the need for further research, are discussed.

Leishmaniasis is a vector-born parasitic disease characterized by predominant cutaneous or visceral involvement with fever, hepatosplenomegaly and anemia. Leishmaniasis has relatively high prevalence in tropical and subtropical areas. Several sporadic and mostly imported cases are detected in Russian Federation. Nevertheless, some local incidents are noted in southern areas (Crimea, Dagestan). Lack of epidemiological alertness hampers confirmation of diagnosis and may lead to incorrect treatment. The article summarizes current state of knowledge in epidemiology, diagnostic approach and treatment of leishmaniasis. Particular clinical case is discussed.

The aim: On the basis of literature data, as well as a clinical case study, to assess the state of the problem of abnormal invasion of the placenta in obstetrics at the present stage. Materials and methods: Based on the materials of the world’s leading citation databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane), a brief review of the literature data over the past 5 years is presented, dedicated to the issues of abnormal placental invasion. The possibilities of a complex of diagnostic studies and clinical management of women with an anomaly of placenta attachment are considered. A clinical case study of abnormal placental invasion is presented. Conclusions: AIP is an extremely serious condition with not fully understood etiological and pathogenic mechanisms. Correct and timely verification of this pathological condition, based on the simultaneous use of a whole complex of diagnostic studies (history taking, 2D, 3D, energy and color Doppler mapping, MRI), contributes to the development of individual tactics for the management and delivery in women with AIP, making it possible to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality and improve perinatal outcomes.

A clinical case of a patient with floppy eyelid syndrome who underwent a resection of the lower eyelid for a neoplasm is presented. Despite of the large volume of tissue removed and given his current state, it was possible to close the defect by direct tissue matching. Thus, patients with floppy eyelid syndrome have an advantage in case of removal of large volume neoplasms, which in the future do not require the use of complex plastics.

Current State

This chapter reviews the current state of evidence on behavioural measures of pain in children and adolescents including a brief discussion of future directions. To demonstrate the utility of behavioural scales, it also includes a clinical case example at the end of this chapter. A few limits of coverage should be noted. First, although some of the measures included in this chapter may have been used for infants, we will not review measures that are only validated for infants as these measures are covered by Lee and Stevens (Chapter 35, this volume)). Second, given that there are no well-established behavioural measures of chronic pain, this chapter will focus on measures that are relevant to acute and procedural pain and will also not cover other pain-related outcome measures (e.g. functional disability, quality of life).

Robust Evidence

Clinical case reports play an important role in supporting evidence-based paramedicine. When research on a topic is limited and there is no robust evidence, a case report may be the best available, especially for rare or unusual presentations or in novel clinical practice. Case reports in paramedicine journals are common. However, adherence to the published consensus-based reporting guideline is rare, which may weaken the evidence arising from this body of case report literature. There is a need for greater awareness of the structured reporting guideline for case reports, and for the development of a paramedicine-specific extension. The objectives of this paper are to: describe the current state of case reports in paramedicine; promote the adoption of an internationally accepted, consensus-based reporting guideline; and propose an extension to that guideline, adapted to the unique characteristics of prehospital practice.

The Subject

The main known function of the pineal gland in humans is the production of melatonin. Benign cysts of the gland have been related to headache, although the mechanism of production of this assumed clinical manifestation has not been clearly determined, due to the lack of large prospective studies. The question is complicated by the fact that pineal cysts are frequently found on brain magnetic resonance imaging. Much has been published about the possible role of benign pineal cysts in the pathophisiology of headaches and the potential of melatonin in headache therapy, as well as in other disorders. The aim of this article is to review the current state of the suject. We have tried to place accurately the relation between headache and pineal cysts based on the available evidence, as well as the actual role of melatonin in physiology and pharmacology, more specifically in headache therapy. We include a clinical case to illustrate the subject.
