    As part of the International Sexuality Description Project, a total of 17,804 participants from 62 cultural regions completed the Relationship Questionnaire (RQ), a self-report measure of adult romantic attachment. Correlational analyses within each culture suggested that the Model of Self and the Model of other scales of the RQ were psychometrically valid within most cultures. Contrary to expectations, the Model of Self and Model of Other dimensions of the RQ did not underlie the four-category model of attachment in the same way across all cultures. Analyses of specific attachment styles revealed that secure romantic attachment was normative in 79% of cultures and that preoccupied romantic attachment was particularly prevalent in East Asian cultures. Finally, the romantic attachment profiles of individual nations were correlated with sociocultural indicators in ways that supported evolutionary theories of romantic attachment and basic human mating strategies.

    Primary thombophilia. Report of 93 cases and 12 asymptomatic relatives
    (SOC MEDICA SANTIAGO, 2004) Srur, E; Vargas, C; Salas, S; Parra, JA; Bianchi, V; Mezzano, D; Munoz, B; Vasquez, M; Pacheco, E
    Background: Thrombophilia is defined as an altered hemostasis that predisposes to thrombosis. It can be primary when there is a family clustering of the disease or secondary, when it is associated to an acquired risk factor. Aim: to report clinical features in a series of patients with primary thrombophilia. Material and methods: Review of clinical records of patients with thrombotic episodes that lead to the suspicios of primary thrombophilia. Analysis of asymptomatic adult close relatives of these patients. Results: We repot 93 subjects (56 females, age range 14-77 years) with repeated episodes of thrombosis and a family history of thrombosis. Twenty four percent had protein C deficiency, 24% had antithrombin III deficiency, 18% had resistance to activated C protein by factor V Leiden, 10% had protein S deficiency, and 10% had the G20210 mutation of prothrombin gene. Among acquired defects studied simultaneously, 30% had lupus anticoagulent and 11% had hyperhomocysteinemia. Twenty four percent of cases had more than one thrombophilic risk factor. Among asymptomatic relatives, five had factor V Leiden, four had protein C deficiency and three had the G20210 mutation of prothrombin gene. Conclusions: Thrombophilia must be suspected in young subjects with thrombotic episode and a family history. the type of coagulation defect will determine prognosis, and the type of treatment (Rev Med Chile 2004; 132: 1466-73).
