Le prime fasi della psicosi : manuale per la formazione dei professionisti, il trattamento e la valutazione dell’esito nei Dipartimenti di Salute Mentale
No full textn un mondo in cui la percentuale di persone con disturbi mentali che non vengono trattati in alcun modo oscilla tra il 75% (paesi ad alto reddito) e il 90% (paesi a basso reddito), questo libro è importante per tre ragioni. La prima è che si rivolge ai bisogni di trattamento, cura e supporto delle persone nelle prime fasi di psicosi, ovvero nel momento in cui si riesce ad ottenere un completo recupero a patto che l&'intervento terapeutico sia tempestivo. La seconda ragione consiste nel fatto che si tratta di un libro eminentemente &"pratico&". La terza ragione è che si tratta di un libro chiaro, ben organizzato e basato su principi etici

Richardson, Barbauld, and the construction of an early modern fan club
No full textMPhilMuch has been written about the life and long works of the eighteenth century epistolary novelist, Samuel Richardson, but the prospect of his position as the first celebrity novelist – responsible for courting his own fame as well as initiating his own fan club – has largely been ignored. The body of manuscripts housed at the National Art Library in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London provides the modern scholar with evidence of the skeletal beginnings of an early fan club. This thesis aims to show how these manuscripts were turned into a saleable commodity by the publisher and entrepreneur Richard Phillips, while under the guiding hand of another, slightly later, literary celebrity, Anna Laetitia Barbauld. In order to restore Richardson’s reputation amongst a new nineteenth century audience, Barbauld was required to construct her own idea of him as an eighteenth century celebrity author, and in doing so the insecurities of a self-professed, apparently diffident man, are revealed. Barbauld’s capacious, but heavily edited selection of letters is analyzed in this thesis, providing ample evidence that Richardson’s correspondents were more than just eager letter writers. By using Barbauld’s biography of Richardson this thesis aims to show how she manipulates the genre of life writing in her construction of him.
This thesis offers an alternative reading of how the Richardson manuscripts are viewed, redefining them as not simply a collection of letters, but as a collective entity, deliberately selected and archived as evidence of an early modern fan club, and its celebrity managing director

Cost-effectiveness of treating first-episode psychosis: five year follow-up results from an Italian early intervention programme
No full textAim: Early intervention programmes
are expected to result in the reduction
of illness severity in patients with
schizophrenia, and contain healthcare
costs by reducing hospital
admissions and improving the
social functioning of patients. This
study aimed to investigate the costeffectiveness
of treatment in an early
intervention programme in comparison
to standard care.
Methods: Retrospective analysis of
data prospectively recorded in an
urban area (Milan, Italy). Twentythree
patients from an early intervention
programme and 23 patients from
standard care with first-episode psychosis
were evaluated on their use of
services over a 5-year period. The
Health of the Nation Outcome Scale
was used to measure clinical status.
Results: Significant changes with
respect to initial assessment were
recorded on the Health of the Nation
Outcome Scale,with larger effect sizes
in the early intervention programme
than in the standard care group. Consequently,
the cost-effectiveness ratio
per reduced score of severity was
lower in the early intervention programme
than in standard care (€ 4802
vs. € 9871), with an incremental costeffectiveness
ratio, or net saving of
€ -1204 for every incremental reduced
score of severity. Over time, greater
recourse to hospital and residential
facilities to obtain comparable
improvement in symptoms resulted
in a steady cost increase for the
patients in standard care.
Conclusions: Allocation of funds to
specialized early intervention programmes
is the best alternative, as it
can save costs by reducing the use of
hospitals and residential facilities,
and may produce net savings of costs
in the long term
