Psychoanalysis with children leads us to rethink psychoanalytic theory in its complexity. New questions, new challenges, summon us daily. We recognize that the psychoanalytic clinic with children has a history and a particular journey that we are going to try to address, to answer the question: what is the uniqueness of a psychoanalyst's encounter with a child? Or what is the same, what is the analysis of children? For this, we will not only address the Freudian and Lacanian approach to this issue, but also the ideas about the subjective constitution in the structuring situations of each subject at present so that we can think about the particularity of Psychoanalysis with children.

This paper presents preliminary results of the research “Positions of the psychosis within the social level: symptoms, discourses, social bonds”, accredited and financed by the National University of La Plata. We start with the issue of social effectiveness of certain productions of psychotic subjects; and we work on the question of how these positions outside the discourse might have a transformative impact on established discourses. We then present aspects of two cases constructed from autobiographical material: Hitler and Joyce. We conclude that it is relevant to make a difference between the calculated effects and the subversive effects in the discourses. In both, it is necessary to think about the role that desire plays with respect to social bonds, discourses and sinthome. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

At present the new historical conditions make the Mental Health an issue of growing concern at two levels, e.g., the public policies and the theoretical guidelines. In the current changing context, the social policies and specially the health ones are being transformed into the redefinitions of the State functions. So, we will study the vicissitudes and the social, political, cultural and economic contexts that the position and applications of the mental health public policies have gone through in Argentina's history from the 1954 Psychology professionalization to the 2010 Law of Mental Health. In doing so, we will historically contextualize the vicissitudes and implications of this time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is aimed at studying the psychological demand in the primary health care centers of La Plata city hall and their relationship with the therapeutic strategies. Some questions about the introducing way of the symptom in this contemporary time have emerged and led us to review the discussion on the so-called "new symptoms" within the psychoanalytic field. Thus, a problem arises from an empirical finding: a notorious increase of the psychological demand in the public sphere both in the municipality health centers and the psychopathology and mental health offices of the hospitals. From the bibliographical exegesis and the case-histories analysis some issues on the care provision are pointed out as they involve unselected and diverse consultations. In this sense, some of the answers the psychoanalysis has offered to its social practice will be studied and thereby make us wonder on the necessary twists to set a device that regards the institution policies but keeping the ethics and theoretical-clinical grounds of the psychoanalysis itself. We can only situate the singularity that the psychoanalytic practice demands if we inquire on and displace the generalizations. A practice that should regard the history-case as unique.

From the beginning of Psychoanalysis, Freud was in charge of organizing the field of his clinic considering the form of presentation of the symptom and its relation with that which determines it. However, at present the field of Psychopathology includes the so-called "new symptoms", those that in close relation with specific aspects of the contemporary culture, would frequently present with epidemic character. Historical-cultural conditioning and its impact on the changes in the formal envelope of the symptom will be addressed, as well as the importance of presenting the so-called "new symptoms" that for some authors are presented as epidemic and for Stevens (2001) To be considered naked by the absence of formal envelopment and the predominance of manifestations of pure enjoyment. We refer to disturbances as anorexia, bulimia, self-mutilations, etc. In this way, there are terms that try to establish a truth that seeks satisfaction for the subject. So we ask ourselves about the dress that the symptom acquires in the contemporary age, that is to say, these demands would be inserted in the presentations of the so-called "new symptoms"?, and if this is the case with new forms of symptoms, what would contribute as a novelty to the field of the clinic?

Introduction: The emergence of new pedagogical techniques in the teaching of human anatomy and modern diagnostic procedures make a detailed arsenal of topographic knowledge of the different abdominal regions essential for the student and surgical resident. For this reason, it is important to achieve a correct recognition of the different anatomical structures of the abdomen, through serial cuts in human cadaveric pieces, using it as a basis for surgical learning. Materials and methods: Serial sections of the abdomen were used in a transversal sense. In different formalized cadaveric models, maintaining a correlation at the different vertebral levels. The manufacture of containers to contain the pieces was carried out and photographic samples were obtained and a practical guide was prepared, written and on CD. Objective: Correct description of abdominal topography for surgical teaching by comparing the findings found in inanimate models, normal adult human anatomical literature, and axial computed tomography of the abdominal region in adults. Conclusions: The knowledge of the interrelation of the organs by levels referred to the different vertebral heights, gives us a dynamic training on structures whose interrelation is of profound importance in surgical practice. The application of inanimate training models can be the pedagogical foundation of topographic knowledge, diagnostic interpretation, and therapeutic skill. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The delimitation of the clinical status of the phobia has been modified through the history of psychiatry, considering since the nineteenth century, the differences between clinicians and researchers who addressed this topic, among whom Freud is a prominent figure. Also he, in his vast work, conceived phobia in various ways, while he was formalizing the psychoanalytic theory. The general objective of this article will consist on establishing the specificity of phobia, delimiting its concept. The specific objectives will be to describe the relationship between the notion of phobia and the predominant pathological manifestations in the current clinical attention, and pose a possible therapeutic approach from a constitutive of desire and enabler place, which is the word. To respond to the work guidelines, a thematic line will be followed, starting from the use of the concept of phobia in psychiatry in the nineteenth century. After that, it will be considered how the notion of phobia had been changing, related to the different stages of the work of Freud and Lacan. Afterwards, from the theoretical framework proposed by both authors, the relationship between the manifestations of phobia in the present and the postmodern cultural context will be described, to finally raise the possibility of their therapeutic approach based on the word, considering the urgency, with which is presented nowadays.

This paper will glimpse the work focused on the problem of the demand for psychological assistance at Health Centers of La Plata. Regarding this problem, some authors propose the development of an irreducible tension between the scope of the "mental health" and psychotherapeutic practices that follow different solidary perspectives with a search for "therapeuting the psychic", and the psychoanalysis, which proposes to maintain its principles responding to new demand conditions. We consider of importance to take into account the peculiarities of the discomfort presentation, its articulation with the demand for treatment and the coordinates that regulate the functioning of the institutions in which they are inserted.

The purpose objective of this article is to identify the trends in therapeutic approaches for the treatment of children with autism in the publications of scientific journals from 2018 to 2021, and trying to find, at the same time, the existence of scientific publications in the area of psychomotor therapy.
