慢性乙型肝炎的联合抗病毒治疗

抗病毒治疗是控制乙型肝炎病原进而防止肝硬化、肝癌等并发症的重要手段。就目前的抗病毒药物而言,单一药物的疗效不能令人满意,越来越多的研究数据表明联合抗病毒治疗,包括干扰素α和核苷（酸）类似物联合治疗以及两种核苷（酸）类似物联合治疗可以减少耐药发生,提高抗病毒疗效。联合抗病毒治疗可能是控制乙肝的有效策略,值得进一步研究。     

HBeAg阳性慢性乙型肝炎抗病毒治疗药物的比较

抗病毒治疗是慢性乙型肝炎治疗的关键。目前抗乙型肝炎病毒（HBV）药物主要有两大类,本文从抗病毒治疗的适应症、禁忌症、治疗效果、耐药性、依从性和治疗费用等方面对现有抗HBV药物进行了比较和分析,认为在选择抗HBV药物时,应遵循规范化与个体化相结合的原则,在患者能承受的费用范围内,尽量选择抗病毒作用强、耐药率低、耐受性良好的药物。     

慢性乙型肝炎抗病毒治疗的策略

抗病毒治疗是慢性乙型肝炎治疗的关键,有效的抗乙型肝炎病毒药物主要有干扰素和核苷（酸）类似物。单药抗病毒治疗可获得较好的疗效,便于监测、管理;联合抗病毒治疗增加抗病毒疗效尚难肯定,更无法避免耐药发生,并可导致多药耐药、增加药物副作用和治疗费用。因此,优选单药进行抗病毒治疗才是目前理想的方案。     

慢性乙型肝炎抗病毒治疗

目前对于慢性乙型肝炎所采用的治疗方法主要有抗病毒、免疫调节、保肝降酶等,其中抗病毒治疗是关键.可以使用单药、联合或序贯疗法,应答率约30%～40%,由于其难治性,出现了一些误区,如盲目用药等,需要科学引导.     

慢性乙型肝炎治疗目标及策略解析

慢性乙型肝炎治疗的目标是最大限度地长期持续抑制或清除乙肝病毒,减轻肝细胞炎症坏死及其所致的肝纤维化,延缓疾病进展,减少肝硬化、原发性肝细胞癌及其并发症的发生。治疗措施包括核苷类似物抗病毒治疗;干扰素抗病毒治疗;免疫调节治疗;抗炎治疗和抗纤维化治疗,其中抗病毒治疗是关键。     

乙肝抗病毒治疗存在的问题及其对策

对乙肝的治疗,抗病毒是核心和关键,但抗病毒治疗自身存在着诸多问题:费用高、疗程长、疗效有限、治疗时机和条件难以掌控;药物有潜在或者明确的不良反应;医患认知不足;疗效评价极端化;治疗中不可预测因素的干扰等。通过细致的分析,探讨了乙肝治疗中的难点,并针对这些问题和难点就未来乙肝的治疗提出了一些有益的建议。

Together – apart: in touch in a time of separation

This paper explores the experience of working as a Jungian analyst through the various phases of the global COVID-19 pandemic, examining the importance of the physical containing space alongside the analyst’s internal mind and how technology can both help and hinder understanding. A number of clinical vignettes illustrate the challenge of communicating over a distance, paying particular attention to the way countertransference phenomena can become re-attuned. Reference is made to mythology and symbols of hope, and consideration given to the meaning and purpose of the pandemic.     

The Possibility of Meaning in Human Evolution

Science undermines the certitude of non-naturalistic answers to the question of whether human life has meaning. I explore whether evolution can provide a naturalistic basis for existential meaning. Using the work of philosopher Daniel Dennett and scientist Ursula Goodenough, I argue that evolution is the locus of the possibility of meaning because it has produced intentionality, the matrix of consciousness. I conclude that the question of the meaning of human life is an existentialist one: existential meaning is a product of the individual and collective tasks human beings undertake.     

Phenotypic plasticity and archetype: a response to common objections to the biological theory of archetype and instinct

Since Jung’s death in 1961, scholars have attempted to integrate growing biological science data into Jungian concepts such as the collective unconscious, instincts and the archetypes. This enterprise has been challenging due to persistent false dichotomies of gene and environment occasionally arising. Recent works by Roesler (2022a, 2022b) for example, have raised objections to the biological theory of archetypes, but the objections are plagued by such dichotomies. The concept of phenotypic plasticity, however, helps to both avoid this problem as well as bridge the gap between competing theories into a more integrated model with solid biological foundations.     

When is it time to stop? When good enough becomes bad enough

This article draws on Winnicott’s concept of the good enough mother to discuss how to know whether a therapeutic situation is good enough to continue or bad enough to end. This dilemma is explored in terms of clinical syndromes, such as anorexia and pathological gambling, but focuses mainly on analyst-initiated endings, which are termed the ‘Casablanca dilemma’, based on an amplification of the ending of the film Casablanca. The author goes on to discuss such one-sided endings, drawing on interviews with 40 analysts and therapists about their clinical experience. A typology of bad enough endings is presented. The psychological differences between a good enough analysis as opposed to a bad enough one are explored through the ideas of Winnicott and Neumann.     

Kann Es Ein Argument Für Den Skeptizismus Geben? Das Epistemische Problem Der Irrtumsmöglichkeit

Summary  Is there any argument for scepticism? The epistemic problem of the possibility of error. Arguments for scepticism rest on the assumption that knowledge claims are fallible. For this reason the concept of knowledge appears to be questionable. Since it is necessary to distinguish doubts from possible doubts, the arguments for scepticism appear to be unconvincing. If we take it into account that we know something that is immune to doubt, we should draw the conclusion that, contrary to scepticism, knowledge claims have to be compatible with being fallible. Thus any knowledge claim is capable of being doubted.     

The transcendent function in Spitteler’s Prometheus and Epimetheus

In August 2020, John Beebe and Steve Myers met via Zoom to discuss their differing interpretations of psychological typology and the different sources within Jung’s writings that influenced their books: Integrity in Depth: Energies and Patterns in Psychological Type (Beebe), and Myers-Briggs Typology vs Jungian Individuation (Myers). The discussion centred on Spitteler’s epic poem Prometheus und Epimetheus, which forms the basis of chapter V of Psychological Types. This is both the largest chapter and one of two chapters that Jung highlighted in the Argentine foreword as containing the essence of the book. Jung’s book is primarily about the transformation of personality rather than the categorization of people. Although it contains a critical psychology that deconstructs the nature of consciousness, that is only one half of the book and a stepping-stone to the other half, which is the reconciliation of opposites with particular emphasis on the relation of consciousness and the unconscious. Jung assumed that readers were already familiar with Prometheus und Epimetheus, an understanding of which sheds light on the nature of the transformation that Jung described – the development of a new attitude towards attitude itself.

Seeing in the Dark: A View into Dissociation and Healing

In this paper, I will explore the role of art-making, the experience of trauma and dissociation, and the process of working with self-states from an analytic and creative frame. Relevant literature on dissociation, trauma, and the use of art will be discussed. A case involving my work with an adolescent girl who had experienced sexual abuse from a family member will be shared, with an emphasis on the meaningful role images played during the therapeutic process. Both Jungian and psychoanalytic models of conceptualizing and working with dissociation are included, following Donald Kalsched’s (2013) recommendation for a “binocular stance” to treatment, including both a focus on the inner, intrapsychic world and the interpersonal, relational realm, and how art images both illuminated and expressed these realms. Within the therapeutic process, art images allowed the therapist a view into the client’s unconscious process, and created a meeting ground for dissociative barriers to be gradually seen, felt and known, by both therapist and client. The experience of dissociation, in images and in session, provided a reference point for myself and my client, Taylor, to develop a shared understanding and a framework for growth.
