▼ During the breeding season, nest predation and brood parasitism are critical factors influencing songbirds’ reproductive success. Therefore, minimizing risk should be an important factor in selecting breeding habitat, whether at the scale of the patch, territory, or nest site. I examined these ideas in a landscape and local study of avian habitat selection, density, and breeding success in bottomland hardwood forests of the Mississippi Alluvial Valley. At the local scale, I investigated how perceived risk from red-bellied woodpeckers (Melanerpes carolinus, nest predators) and brown-headed cowbirds (Molothrus ater, brood parasites) affected Acadian flycatcher (Empidonax virescens) territory settlement. Woodpecker risk was higher on vacant territories in only one of the two years, and apparent woodpecker avoidance appeared to be mediated indirectly through habitat preferences. Cowbird risk was higher on vacant territories in both years, and avoidance appeared to be mediated both by indirect habitat effects as well as a direct behavioral response. I investigated landscape context and local vegetation effects on densities of Acadian flycatchers and four other migratory species, as well as on relative abundance of red-bellied woodpeckers and brown-headed cowbirds. In addition, for flycatchers I investigated the factors influencing nest survival and incidence of brood parasitism. Nest survival increased with increasing forest cover (and hence, decreasing agriculture) in the surrounding landscape. Acadian flycatchers were particulary sensitive to interior forest openings from patch cuts and other disturbances. We found that incidence of brood parasitism decreased with increasing distance from forest disturbances, and that population density decreased with increasing forest disturbance in the surrounding landscape. This is consistent with our finding that brown-headed cowbirds were positively associated with early successional forest cover in the landscape, including interior forest openings. We do not know how much influence red-bellied woodpeckers have as nest predators, but we did find that, at the landscape scale, flycatcher population density was negatively related to woodpecker abundance, after controlling for landscape context and vegetation effects.

▼ One of the primary goals of household studies of infectious disease transmission is to estimate the household secondary attack rate (SAR), the probability of direct transmission from an index case A to a susceptible household member B during A's infectious period. In a household with m susceptibles and a single index case, the number of secondary infections is often treated as a binomial(m, p) random variable where p is the SAR. This assumes that all subsequent infections in the household are transmitted directly from the index case. Because a given transmission chain of length k from A to B has probability p^k, it is thought that chains of length k > 1 can be ignored when p is small. However, the number of transmission chains of length k from A to B can be large, so the total risk of infection through any chain of length k can be much greater than p^k. In simulations, we show that estimation of the SAR using a binomial model is biased upward and produces confidence intervals with poor coverage probabilities. Accurate point and interval estimates of the SAR can be obtained using chain binomial models or pairwise survival analysis. To extend the method of analyzing household studies infectious disease transmission data we proposed accelerated failure time models with covariates. Kenah(2011) showed that parametric survival analysis could be used to handle dependent happenings in infectious disease transmission data by taking ordered pairs of individuals, not individuals, as the units of analysis. The failure time in this approach is the contact interval, which is the time from the onset of infectiousness in an individual i to infectious contact from i to individual j, where an infectious contact is sufficient to infect j if he or she is susceptible. The contact interval distribution shows how infectiousness changes over time in infected individuals and Advisors/Committee Members: KENAH,EBEN E (committee chair), YANG,YANG (committee member), LIANG,SONG (committee member).

▼ AimsThe aim of this study was to estimate the population-based local control (LC) and overall survival (OS) benefits of radiotherapy for selected cancers if the whole cancer population in Australia were treated according to evidence-based guidelines. These estimates were based on the published radiotherapy utilisation (RTU) models used for estimating demand of radiotherapy services nationally and internationally. MethodsBenefits were defined as the LC and OS proportional gains from radiotherapy over no radiotherapy and from post-operative radiotherapy over surgery alone. CRT benefits were the proportional gains from concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy over radiotherapy alone. The RTU models for breast, gastro-intestinal (oesophagus, stomach, colorectal, gall bladder, pancreas), haematological (leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma), lung, melanoma, unknown primary and ‘other’ (anus, non-melanoma skin cancer, soft tissue sarcoma) cancers were extended to incorporate benefit estimates of radiotherapy alone (RT alone) and of radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy (CRT). Literature review (1990-2015) was conducted to identify benefit estimates of individual radiotherapy indications and summed to estimate the population-based gains for these outcomes. Model robustness was tested through univariate and multivariate sensitivity analyses.ResultsFor the RT alone model, the lowest 5-year LC benefit estimates (benefit %, 95% Confidence Interval) were for leukaemia (1%, 0.2%-1%) and oesophageal cancer (1%, 0.5%-1%), the highest for breast cancer (15%, 12.9%-16.8%). The lowest and highest for 5-year OS benefit were: oesophageal cancer (0.1%, 0.06%-0.13%) and lymphoma (6.5%, 5.9%-7.1%). For the CRT model, lowest and highest LC benefits were for: ‘other’ cancers (1%, 0.2%-1.3%) and rectal cancer (6%, 2.5%-9.4%). 5-year OS benefit ranges were: ‘other’ cancers (0.2%, -0.1%-0.4%) and oesophageal cancer (2%, 1.7%-2.7%). 2-year OS benefits (RT only + CRT) were estimated for lung cancer (13%), pancreatic cancer (3%) and 10-year OS benefits (4%) were estimated for breast cancer.ConclusionsThe model provided estimates of radiotherapy benefits achievable if treatment guidelines are followed for all cancer patients in the Australian population. This is a unique estimate to examine effects of shortfall in radiotherapy utilisation at a population level. The model can be adapted to populations with known epidemiological parameters to ensure the planning of equitable radiotherapy services worldwide.

▼ Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive neurological disorder characterized by loss of lower motor neurons with resulting skeletal muscle atrophy, and is one of the leading genetic causes of infant death. SMA is a consequence of a deletion or other mutation of the survival of motor neuron-1 (SMN1) gene with preservation of the nearly identical SMN2 gene. The disease is associated with reduced levels of the SMN protein, which has the fundamental role of assembling small nuclear ribonucleoproteins – molecules involved in pre-mRNA splicing (Battle et al, 2006; Lefebvre et al, 1995). In accordance with this function, loss of SMN leads to defects in splicing and affects the range of snRNAs and mRNAs produced in tissues (Gabanella et al, 2007; Zhang et al, 2008). While SMN's role in snRNP biogenesis has been well characterized, it remains uncertain why deletion of this ubiquitously expressed gene causes a progressive loss of motor neurons and a specific neuromuscular phenotype. Studying SMN protein stability may indicate how deficiencies in SMN cause disease. The over-arching aim of this dissertation is to characterize the degradation of the SMN protein. A detailed understanding of this mechanism could provide insight into methods for increasing levels of functional SMN protein as an approach to treatment of SMA. Our studies identified the ubiquitin proteasome system as a major degradative pathway for SMN. Steady-state SMN protein levels were increased in cells treated with proteasome inhibitors, but were unchanged when other degradative pathways were inhibited. This thesis examined the effect of proteasome inhibition on SMN protein levels and the SMA disease phenotype in vivo. Our results in SMA model mice highlighted a critical role for SMN in the central nervous system and showed that SMN increases in peripheral tissues could also improve the disease phenotype. We also identified and characterized a novel E3 ubiquitin ligase for SMN and showed that its targeted knockdown increased SMN in cell culture and ameliorated a neuromuscular defect in a C. elegans SMA model. Our work enhances the understanding of SMN protein degradation and demonstrates how this knowledge may be put to therapeutic use.

The central challenge in predictive modeling for survival analysis in medical prognostics is the management of censored observations in the data. While time-to-event predictions can be modeled as regression problems, traditional regression techniques are challenged by the censored characteristics of the data. In such problems the true target times of a majority of instances are unknown; what is known is a censored target representing some indeterminate time before the true target time. The information for most patients is incomplete and only known â€œup-to-a-point.â€ Patients who have experienced the endpoint of interest (cancer recurrence, death, etc) during an often multi-year study are considered as non-censored or events. They may represent as little as 9% of the available sample. Most of the patients do not experience the endpoint or are lost to follow-up for various reasons (patient moved, died of other causes, etc.). These censored samples often represent most of the available sample. Modeling techniques which can correctly account for censored observations are crucial. Such censored samples can be considered as semi-supervised targets, however most efforts in semi-supervised regression do not take into account the partial nature of unsupervised information; with samples treated as either fully labelled or unlabeled. This dissertation presents a novel transduction approach for semi-supervised survival analysis. The true target times are approximated from the censored times through transduction to improve predictive performance. The framework can be employed to transform traditional regression methods for survival analysis, or to enhance existing survival analysis algorithms for improved predictive performance. This proposed approach represents one of the first applications of semi-supervised regression to survival analysis and yields significant improvements in predictive performance for multiple applications in prostate and breast cancer prognostics.

▼ Understanding factors limiting population growth is critical for species exhibiting declining populations. Reproductive success has an important effect on population dynamics; however, our ability to accurately estimate productivity is limited. Studies on avian breeding biology have focused on nest survival; however, surviving to fledging does not ensure survival to the end of the breeding season. Furthermore, our understanding of habitat selection by birds based on the nesting cycle may not adequately represent the breeding habitat requirements because habitat use often changes after the young leave the nest. My goal was to examine the postfledging dependence period of two flycatcher species in the central Sierra Nevada: the California state endangered willow flycatcher (Empidonax traillii) and the dusky flycatcher (E. oberholseri). My focus was to estimate fledgling survival and examine factors that influence survival, evaluate postfledging movements and habitat use, and estimate post-breeding home range sizes of postfledging flycatchers. I monitored nests of both flycatcher species, individually color banded nestlings, and observed family groups daily once the young fledged. Flycatcher fledgling survival ranged from 46 percent to 76 percent and varied by year and species. Survival was lowest during the first week of the postfledging dependence period for both species. Fledgling flycatchers moved on average ~45m per day during the dependence period. I detected family groups in the natal meadows from 13 to 33 days. I detected willow flycatchers in riparian shrub vegetation 94 percent of the time, with the remaining detections being along the upland forest edge. Dusky flycatchers were more likely to use upland forest vegetation after leaving the nest, as I detected them in riparian shrub vegetation 70 percent of the time. For both years combined, mean 95 percwnt home range sizes were 1.80 ? 1.44 ha for willow flycatchers and 1.82 ? 1.70 ha for dusky flycatchers. Mean 50 percent core areas were 0.33 ? 0.27 ha for willow flycatchers and 0.38 ? 0.44 ha for dusky flycatchers. My results suggest that using fledgling survival throughout the dependence period to assess reproductive output is more accurate than using nesting data alone. Furthermore, postfledging family groups used a larger area of habitat than what is typically estimated from territory mapping singing males. Future research should continue to stress the importance of gaining knowledge about the postfledging period, especially for species with declining populations.

▼ The purpose of this dissertation is to add to the understanding of democratic consolidation, and to address a debate within this topic: Is presidentialism harmful to democratic consolidation? I argue that presidentialism induces higher levels of political violence (attitudinally and behaviorally). Unlike parliamentary and semi-presidential systems, which offer mechanisms to alter the incumbent government through legislative responsibility, such as a vote of no confidence or a government reshuffle, when there exist mismatched policy expectations between the public and the government, or when the public dissatisfaction with the government is high, presidential systems do not have this mechanism to change the government composition and the president is empowered to govern until the next election. Even in the case that the public's discontent toward the president is high, there exist almost no mechanisms except for her own resignation and an impeachment to remove her from her office. However, a voluntary resignation and an impeachment are rarely occurred in the history, and thus, the expectation of the public regarding whether their grievances can be resolved and addressed is more difficult to be fulfilled in presidential democracies. Therefore, using and considering violence as a mean to address their political and social problems becomes a more viable option in presidential democracies. But by doing so, political stability will decrease and democratic consolidation will be hindered. I employ the World Value Survey and the Asian Barometer Survey to find support for this argument. To further extend this argument and to address the debate, I argue that democratic breakdown must be considered a two-step process. For a democracy to break down, the presence of a democratic crisis that presents a significant likelihood of overthrowing the current democratic regime is necessary. Specifically, I argue that presidentialism generates political instability through its institutions, which are associated with a greater likelihood of the emergence of a democratic crisis, but political instability does not further contribute from democratic crisis to democratic breakdown. Using data covering all democratic regimes from 1946 to 2008, I demonstrate that presidential democracies are more likely to encounter crises than either parliamentary or semi-presidential systems. However, once a crisis occurs, presidentialism does not lead to a higher likelihood of breakdown. Thus, presidentialism is associated with a higher likelihood of democratic breakdown, but only by affecting half of the process.

▼ An urban greening programme in Wellington, New Zealand providing free plants to city residents was evaluated with the following objectives: 1. To assess the levels of plant survival after five, ten, and fifteen years and determine factors contributing to observed survival; 2. To investigate factors influencing participation in the programme; 3. To quantify the some of the socioeconomic factors relating to programme participants and environmental factors relating to sites. Data were collected from a combination of council records, site surveys and postal questionnaire surveys. The study found that plant survival was generally poor, but was mainly influenced by indigeneity of the plants. Contrary to many theories of exotic invasiveness, New Zealand native plants were 4.3 times more likely to survive than exotic plants. Site based effects were not found to influence survival significantly; nor were specific plant traits, or year of planting. A small sample of these sites was matched to questionnaire responses and it was found that length of residence by programme participants increased the performance of the best model indigeneity, indicating that increasing length of residence was a predictor of better survival of plantings. The questionnaire respondents included both those who had participated in the programme and those who had not. The sample population, however, was quite distinct from the general population of the region, being older, wealthier, having higher levels of education, and twice as likely to own their own home. As suggested by previous research looking at the effects of socioeconomic factors on urban forestry or urban greening participation was shown in this study to be mainly affected by the age of the respondent, which increased the odds of participation by 200% between the youngest and oldest age groups. This socioeconomic model was improved when two factors were included: the number of trees outside their property, and, horticultural knowledge of the participant. This indicates that participants might be more motivated by personal interest in horticulture, than in improving environmental conditions.

▼ Bacterial spot of cucurbits, caused by Xanthomonas cucurbitae, has become a serious threat to pumpkin production in Illinois and other states in the North Central Region (NCR) of the United States. This study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of X. cucurbitae isolates from the NCR and to develop an effective seed treatment to eradicate the pathogen in pumpkin seeds. Characteristics of the pathogen included the cell multiplication of X. cucurbitae at different temperatures and pH levels and pathogenic variation among isolates of the pathogen. Fourteen X. cucurbitae isolates from seven states (Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin) were tested. The American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) strain 23378 was included in this study as positive control. The result showed that the range of minimum, maximum, and optimum temperatures for cell multiplication of X. cucurbitae were 4-6, 34-36, and 24-30°C, respectively. Cell multiplication and colony development of X. cucurbitae was optimum at pH 6.5-8. For determining pathogenic variation among the isolates, X. cucurbitae was inoculated onto leaves of three-week-old ‘Howden’ and ‘Dickinson’ pumpkins in a greenhouse. Development of the bacterial lesions was recorded from 12 to 168 h post inoculation. The post-inoculation period for the first appearance of the visible lesions was significantly affected by the isolates. However, diameters of the lesions 168 h post inoculation were not significantly different among the isolates. Survival of X. cucurbitae in pumpkin seed was studied using naturally-infected and artificially-inoculated pumpkin seed stored at 4 and 22°C. X. cucurbitae survived longer than 18 months in the seeds at both temperatures and remained viable. The storage temperature significantly affected survival of X. cucurbitae in the seed. The effectiveness of hot-water, hydrochloric acid (HCl), and sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) for eradication of X. cucurbitae in pumpkin seed was tested. The results showed that a hot-water treatment at 55°C for either 10 or 15 min and HCl treatment at 0.5% concentration for 40 min eradicated X. cucurbitae in both naturally-infected and artificially-inoculated pumpkin seeds without any significant adverse effect on either seed germination or seedling vigor. None of the NaClO treatments eradicated X. cucurbitae in the seed.

▼ Many of the street children in the study area, Bahir Dar, are rural-urban migrants. The present study investigates the livelihood and survival strategies of migrant street children. It further looks at the causes of migration of children and the social networks they maintain among themselves and to their rural villages. Structuration Theory and Livelihood Approach are adopted to look at the issues to get insights about how street children are making a living in the study area. Structuration Theory has been applied to look at the research problem from different perspectives. It is employed to realize the factors that shape the life of street children in the urban social system. Children make part of the structure of the urban life and as actors are striving to adjust themselves to livelihood outcomes. Livelihood approach has been adapted to look at the diverse street based economic activities of children and how they adapt survival mechanisms to meet their basic needs. In this study qualitative and quantitative methods of data collection are used. The qualitative method is used to understand the view of migrant street children and their lived experience while the quantitative method is used to supplement the data collected through qualitative one. Interviews, focus group discussion, and observation are used as instruments of data collection. Migrant street children as the subjects of this study were selected from Bahir Dar Town, using purposive snowball sampling to get insights about their lives. The data collected are triangulated and cross-checked to check reliability and validity of information. The study shows that children drifted from different parts of the country into the study area and the children left their rural villages on their own and without any parental say on their decision to migrate. They also come from families with large size in their rural localities. Migration does not lead them to lose contact with their rural folk except in few cases. Children migrate into the study area as a result of interwoven and various factors including poverty, disagreement with their families, death of parents (either both or one of their parents), in search of education and others. It has been found that increased migration of rural children was aggravated due to rural poverty. This study also shows that street children are engaged in diverse livelihood activities that require different types of assets of which labor is the most decisive one that enables them to earn income either directly in wage employment or indirectly through the production of goods and services sold in the informal market. In their day to day survival scenario, street children interact among themselves through various informal social networks characterized by hierarchies. Their social networks are also important to strengthen the capability of groups’ members to reduce vulnerability and be more beneficial to livelihood outcomes.

▼ BACKGROUND: The introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy in 1996 dramatically improved survival and quality of HIV-infected patients in the industrialized world. This survival benefit of HAART in HIV infection has been well studied in the developed world. In resource-poor settings, where such treatment was started only recently, limited data exist on treatment results. More over mortality have been high particularly in the first month of initiating ART and factors contributing to this high mortality are poorly understood. OBJECTIVE: To asses predictors of survival in PLWHA after the advent of HAART. METHODS: A historical cohort study was conducted in Zewditu Hospital located in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Patient’s records enrolled between March, 2005 to July, 2008 were reviewed consecutively using patients ART unique identification number as a reference. Different documents for the same patient were triangulated in case of odd values, non logical or missed data. Deaths from all AIDS related cause occurring during the follow-up period were identified from physician reports or registration by drug adherence counselor. Univariate analysis was used to describe patient’s baseline characteristics. Actuarial table was used to estimate survival after intiation of ART, and log rank test was used to compare survival curves. Cox proportional-hazard regression was used to calculate the bivariate and adjusted hazard rate and then determine independent predictors of time to death. RESULT; One thousand seventy patients on ART were followed for a median of 34 month (IQR 6, 36.25). The mean age was 36.4 and the median weight of the cohort at the initiation of ART was 51kg (IQR, 45-60kg).The median CD4 count was 94cells/μl (IQR, 46-154). The estimated mortality was 24.9%, 29%, 31.7%, 33.1%, 33.5, and 34% at 6, 12, 18, 30, and 48 months respectively. After adjustment, the independent significant predictors of not surviving in patients living with HIV/AIDS after initiation of ART remain poor ART adherence (AHR=3.92[95%CI=3.13, 4.90]),Advanced WHO staging (AHR=2.47[95%CI= (1.58, 3.81]), being unemployed (AHR=1.87[95%CI= 1.49, 2.34]), moderate anemia (AHR=1.86[95%CI=1.35, 2.56), and Low CD4 count (AHR=1.85[95%CI= 1.35, 2.52]). CONCLUSION; A careful monitoring of patients with low CD4+ ,advanced WHO staging, moderate anemia and unemployed particularly during the first 3 months of HAART is necessary. Tracing poorly adhered patients and giving them drug counseling is crucial to improve their survival. Advisors/Committee Members: Dr. ALEMAYEHU WORKU (PhD) (advisor).

▼ The purpose of this study is to explore the role of social capital in the survival mechanisms of female street children/youth, and challenges they encounter on the streets and how they manage to survive regardless of the challenges they are facing. The study employed qualitative research design, which is suitable for studying complex issues like social capital. The methodological inquiry was a phenomenological approach. This research approach was appropriate to understand the complexities of the phenomenon in the course of the experiences, perceptions and perspectives from a holistic standpoint. Data collection through Semi structured question, focus group discussions and observation were used to contextualize their everyday lives to reveal their abilities as citizens. The sample size for this study especially for the in depth interviews was 10 female street children and youth age between 15-24 years who live in around ‘Kirkos’ and ‘Bole’ Sub-cities streets in Addis Ababa. The data was analyzed using the themes and categories that have emerged from fieldwork and research questions using triangulation. Triangulation for this research was employed in a number of ways: in terms of the different theoretical perspectives discussed in the literature; in terms of the different methods of data collection used; in terms of the diversity of sources of information; and in terms of the different methods of analysis used. The research finding shows that through their social network, seen as social capital, female street children and youth are able to develop survival mechanisms that sustain their lives in the absence of parents. Based on the accounts from females, the study documents that cultural norms and gender labels put females at an inconvenience position as they have limited social capital and they are generally more vulnerable than males. Considering the finding of this study, the researcher recommended that the need of social work intervention in the advocacy of female street children and youth as a venerable street group. While influencing the policy maker to issue a new policy and to suggest needs of establishing a self-governing agency and need further study for fully understand their life in order to guide the service provided for them and in the long run to move them out from the streets.

▼ In urban Ethiopia, number of female migrants has been growing with time. Economic and social factors are major reasons for females’ migrations in the country. Intention of females’ migrations is basically related to improving standard of life. However, unemployment, under waged employment and unsustainable livelihood strategies are common problems for significant proportion of female in-migrants in most urban centers of Ethiopia. As a result, many female in-migrants lead their lives in worst situations and struggle with poverty that worsens their lives. In view of this problem, the main objective of this study was to investigate survival strategies of female in-migrants in Gimbi town. By using questionnaire, FGDs and interviews data were collected from 380 female inmigrants randomly selected. Then, analyses of the study were done using descriptive and binary logistic regression statistical tools as well as qualitative techniques. The finding of the study reveals that economic factors (searching for jobs and transfer) and social factors (search for education, family formation and finding relatives/friends) are basic causes for young, economically active and rural origin females’ in-migrations to Gimbi town. Moreover, the result of the study indicates that active strategy, passive strategy and social network are the basic survival strategies female in-migrants often adopt to lead their lives in the town. These strategies are regularly realized by accepting available job, reducing food intake, using secondhand cloth, renting housing unit with low cost, selling household properties, borrowing, receiving aids and sharing expenses. The result of binary logistic regression analysis shows that the probability of female inmigrants to accept available job as a survival strategy varies due to socio-economic and demographic factors. Accordingly, problems of economic status are recurrent among young, rural origin, head, single, with dependent children, large family size, recent and illiterate female in-migrants in Gimbi town. Similarly, in the study town, female in-migrants could not earn income from their livelihood strategies are regularly overwhelmed by these problems. Because, female in-migrants among all the aforementioned categories had higher likelihoods to accept available job as a means of survival strategy compared with their respective categories. However, accepting available job as a survival strategy is not influenced by ethnic background and religion of female in-migrants in the study town. On the other hand, the outcome of this study also indicates that unemployment and underemployment resulted from seasonality of work and low level of earning are the basic economic challenges for many female in-migrants in Gimbi town. Hence, as feasible recommendations the followings were stated. Reinforcing affirmative actions, strengthening the implementations of constitutional rights given to women, providing free family planning services, supporting institutions working on improving life of… Advisors/Committee Members: Dr. Eshetu Gurmu (advisor).

La « survie psychique » concerne les sujets qui vivent sous la menace de leur propre disparition et d’un effondrement qui les priverait de tout « a-venir ». Ils doivent faire face à des ruptures dans le continuum qui engagent des « effets de corps » révélant toujoursun corps mal métabolisé psychiquement. Marqué par la discontinuité, l’être puise ici son énergie dans celle du « désêtre», dont l’appréhension passe par ses vicissitudes et celles du lien corps/psyché, mais aussi par les voies de l’originaire et de la sensorialité. Pour s’infiltrer dans les interstices du mort et du vivant, il nous faut donc revenir sur l’émergence du corps sensoriel-érogène, ce corps relationnel qui naît d’une prime de plaisir, en tant qu’elle est la condition de tout mouvement d’investissement, et donc de la vie même. Car lorsque le sentiment d’exister vacille et que la déliaison somato-psychique est à son comble, la retrouvaille d’un « plaisir nécessaire » – sous-entendant celle d’un pictogramme –est de l’ordre du « psychiquement vital ». Dans ce sens, nous parlons d’économie de survie, économie dont l’exploration s’enrichit de la proposition d’un principe de survie/principe d’anéantissement, et trouve ses « limites » dans le flou structural qu’elle sous-tend. A l’écoute des patients qui m’ont incitée à entreprendre cette recherche, cela est d’autant plus saisissant qu’une grande fragilité des assises narcissiques et une problématique prégénitale désorganisatrice (engageant la mobilisation de défenses primitives), cohabitent avec le maintien d’une réflexivité intrapsychique et d’une intelligence souvent remarquable.Pour déjouer ces ruses de la psyché, nous proposons donc la perspective d’un travail aux limites de l’être permettant au temps de retrouver son pouvoir de transformation età la réanimation du corps sensoriel-érogène devant la perte du sentiment continu d’exister de trouver sa source ailleurs que dans une « énergie du désêtre ».

The “psychic survival” concerns subjects who live under the threat of their own disappearance and a breakdown that would deprive them of everything that is “to (be)-come”. They have to face breaches in the continuum which engage “body effects” that always give away a body poorly metabolized psychologically. Marked by discontinuity, the being draws its energy from “unbeing”, while its apprehension goes through its vicissitudes as well as the ones of the bond between body/psyche, but also through the ways of origin and sensoriality. In order to penetrate into the interstices of death and life, we therefore have to return to the emergence of the “sensory-erogenous body”, this relational body that is born out of a pleasure premium which is as such the prerequisite of every move of investment and therefore of life itSelf. For when the “going on being” falters and the psychosomatic unbinding is at its peak, finding a “necessary pleasure” again – meaning the one of a pictogram – is within the range of the “psychologically vital”. In this sense, we talk about the economics of survival, an economy whose…
