  3. Book ; Online: Pratiques du hasard : Pour un matérialisme de la rencontre

    Abstract Le hasard fait bien les choses, nous dit-on. Mais il peut aussi mal les faire. Cest dire quil exerce un rôle non négligeable dans les domaines de laction éthique et de la praxis esthétique. Selon Épicure et Lucrèce, le hasard serait même à lorigine de toute chose : de rerum il serait en quelque sorte la natura, pour peu que notre monde ait pris forme et consistance au sein dun gigantesque chaos atomique, sans le concours dun démiurge ordonnateur et législateur. « Cause fictive de ce qui arrive sans raison apparente ou explicable », aux dires des lexicographes, le hasard ne se laisse désigner quen creux. Il se définit par rapport à ce quil excède : la finalité rationnelle ou naturelle, dun côté, le déterminisme des lois de la physique, de lautre. Mot blanc, signifiant vide, hasard nomme cette part de lévénement qui échappe à la transcendance dune volonté providentielle comme à limmanence dune nécessité matérielle. Il y a bien longtemps que les sciences de la nature - sous les coups de boutoir de lévolution des espèces, la turbulence des fluides ou la physique quantique - ont abandonné une conception de la causalité oscillant entre la volonté rationnelle (ou inconsciente) et un strict déterminisme mécanique et légal. Voilà pourquoi, à son tour, la critique littéraire et artistique doit se mettre à penser la création esthétique en dehors des catégories de lintentionnalité spirituelle et de linertie matérielle. La matière nest pas plus inerte (in-ars) que lauteur nest tout puissant. La volonté et la nécessité ne recouvrent pas lintégralité du champ de la création : la part laissée dans lombre et que lon désigne au moyen du vocable hasard en appelle à de plus amples investigations

  5. Article ; Online: The transition from cranial surgery to neurosurgery in East London, 1760-1960.

    Abstract The emergence of neurosurgery from the practice of cranial surgery between the eighteenth and the twentieth centuries in London, UK, is well documented, including the role of Sir Victor Horsley, the first neurosurgical appointee at the National Hospital Queen Square in 1886. The process of this transition elsewhere in London and the subsequent foundation of other neurosurgical units are less well described. In East London, the status of St. Bartholomew's Hospital (Barts) as the oldest London hospital still active on its original site and its comprehensive archives allow an unusually long history of surgical practice in the specialty to be studied. Using these archives and other primary and secondary sources, this article describes the transition of cranial surgery in East London from the general surgeons, limited to the treatment of brain and skull injury, to the specialized discipline of neurosurgery. We discuss the culmination of this process in the foundation of three neurosurgical units at London Hospital, Whitechapel, by Sir Hugh B. Cairns from 1927; at Barts Hospital, Smithfield, by John E. A. O'Connell from 1937; and at Oldchurch Hospital, Romford, by Leslie C. Oliver from 1945. Two modern neurosurgical units, in Whitechapel and Romford, have taken forward the work begun by this group.

    Abstract Background: Hydrocephalus (HC) is common in patients with vestibular schwannoma (VS). This can be managed with a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diversion procedure prior to VS resection or with VS resection, keeping CSF diversion in reserve unless required postoperatively. No clear consensus exists as to which approach is superior. This study identifies factors predictive of the development of HC, and analyses outcomes for those managed with primary CSF resection versus tumour resection.
    Methods: Single-centre retrospective cohort study of 204 consecutive adult patients with a unilateral VS from May 2009 to June 2021. Data was collected on patient and tumour demographics, management, and outcome.
    Results: 204 patients, with a mean age at presentation of 59.5 (21-83), with 50% female, and a mean follow-up of 7.5 years (1.8-13.9) were included. 119 were managed conservatively, 36 with stereotactic radiosurgery only, and 49 with surgery. 30 (15%) patients had radiological HC, of which 23 (77%) were obstructive, and 7 (23%) were communicating. Maximum intracranial tumour diameter and Koos grade were higher in patients with HC. Of the patients with HC the majority (20, 67%) were managed initially with CSF diversion, with 12 patients undergoing subsequent tumour resection, and three patients avoiding primary resection. Nine (30%) were managed with primary surgical resection, of whom three required subsequent CSF diversion. Complication rates and Modified Rankin Scale (MRS) were comparable or lower in the CSF diversion group (8%, MRS ≤2 = 83%), versus the primary resection group (67%, MRS ≤2 = 67%), and the primary surgical resection without HC group (25%, MRS ≤2 = 86%).
    Conclusions: CSF diversion prior to tumour resection is a safe and acceptable strategy compared to primary VS resection, with improved outcomes and reduced surgical complications. Randomized studies and national databases are needed to determine the long-term outcomes of patients treated with CSF diversion versus primary resection.

    Abstract NIDA's Avenir Program in the Genetics or Epigenetics of Substance Use Disorders (SUDs) was launched to support early stage investigators who propose innovative, high risk, but potentially high impact research and who show promise of being tomorrow's leaders in this scientific field. Since 2015, NIDA has supported 30 Avenir Investigators with unique expertise and creative ideas. This special issue showcases how some of these ideas have germinated, flourished, and borne fruit. In this perspective article we briefly describe the purpose and implementation of the Avenir award and provide a high altitude overview of the awardees and their scientific projects to date.

    Abstract Introduction: Locally advanced non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) involving the periosteum or calvarium poses a clinical challenge for patients who are unfit for immunotherapy due to medical comorbidities and/or frailty. This case series aims to investigate outcomes for patients undergoing craniectomy and soft tissue reconstruction.
    Method: Patients who underwent craniectomy and soft tissue reconstruction for invasive NMSC with calvarium or periosteal invasion between 2016 and 2022 were included. Data, including demographics, operative details, and clinical outcomes, were gathered from Nottingham University Hospitals' digital health record and the histopathology electronic database.
    Result: Eight patients (average age: 78.4 years, 3 females 5 males) with significant comorbidities and varying degrees of periosteal or bone invasion fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Diagnoses included four squamous cell carcinomas, two basal cell carcinomas, and two pleomorphic dermal sarcomas. Five patients had a history of prior incomplete deep margin excision. The median sizes for soft tissue defect, tumor and bone defect size were 51.83 cm
    Conclusion: Craniectomy with soft tissue reconstruction proves to be a safe and effective treatment option in advanced NMSC of the scalp in patients unsuitable for immunotherapy due to frailty or medical co-morbidity.
