Esther Bick's legacy of infant observation at the Tavistock — Some reflections 60 years on.
No full textThis paper reviews the development of Infant Observation from its inception in 1948. It revisits Bick's original 1964 paper and explores current divergences from her original practice in the context of contemporary theories of psychoanalysis and adjacent disciplines and of relevant changes in society. It draws on the personal recollections of Bick's early students as well as the expanding published literature. It discusses seminar technique, the training of seminar leaders, and clinical and research applications of the observational method

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods

The Right to Strike under the United States Constitution: Theory, Practice, and Possible Implications for Canada
No full textAnswering critics of the Canadian Supreme Court's judgment in B.C. Health, the author argues that the Court laid the foundation for a principled and durable doctrine protecting constitutional labour rights, one that goes directly to the heart of the matter — the inequality of workers’ power in the employment relation. In the author’s view, two paths could lead from B.C. Health to the recognition of Charter protec- tion for a right to strike: one that treats the right as an accessory to col- lective bargaining, and one that upholds the right directly on the basis of the Charter values of equality and participation. The author supports the latter approach, contending that constitutional rights should be defined in relation to fundamental values, in a way that is not contingent on time-bound or fact-sensitive assessments about the role of strikes within a particular collective bargaining regime. Although a Charter right to strike may involve the courts in difficult choices about when to defer to legislative policy decisions, and courts may lack the institutional capac- ity to deal effectively with labour law issues, the author points out that judges can look to ILO standards for expert guidance. Noting that the U.S. experience in this area might be of considerable use to Canadians, the author concludes by providing an overview of American case law concerning a constitutional right to strike.Peer reviewe
OXPHOS defects and mitochondrial DNA mutations in cardiomyopathy
No full textDefects of the mitochondrial respiratory chain in cardiac muscle are an important, yet still overlooked cause of heart failure. In 16 of 32 endocardial biopsies from infants affected by “idiopathic” hypertrophic cardiomyopathy we demonstrated a remarkable decrease of activity of either complex I, or complex IV, or both, relative to complex II + III activity which was taken as an index of mitochondrial proliferation. At the molecular level, several mtDNA mutations have been associated with cardiomyopathy. For instance, MIMyCa is a maternally inherited syndrome presenting with a variable combination of skeletal and heart muscle failure associated with a heteroplasmic A3260G transition in the tRNALeu(UUR) gene. To study the effects of the mutation in a controlled system, we prepared clones of transmitochondrial cybrids by fusing mutant cytoplasts with mtDNA‐less tumor cells. Two groups of clones were identified: nearly 100% mutant (M group) and nearly 100% wildtype (WT group). The means of complex I and IV in the M group were 63% and 67% relative to the WT group. The O2 consumption in the M group was 36%, and the lactate production was 218% of that in the WT group. MtDNA‐specific translation was defective in M clones. The study of transmitochondrial cybrids is an important clue to test the pathogenicity of mtDNA mutations. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Copyright © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc
