Presentation methodologies: an assessment for forensic signature analysis

ABSTRACT

This study introduces a new methodology – the Line-Up method – for the presentation of signatures for forensic comparison. This method gives one approach to reduce the potential for contextual bias that is present using the traditional Target methodology. The findings of the research showed no significant difference in the number of inconclusive opinions, or level of accuracy, between the two presentation methods when used by the forensic handwriting examiners. However, lay participants made significantly fewer correct calls using the Line-Up method than the Target method. The findings reported here also show that forensic handwriting examiners exhibit greater levels of accuracy of authorship opinion utilizing the Line-Up method compared with lay participants. An investigation of the levels of inconclusive opinion using the Line-Up method found that forensic handwriting examiners were significantly more likely to offer an inconclusive opinion than lay participants (lay participants mean 21.3%; forensic handwriting examiners mean 56.3%). This study has established a baseline that will serve as the platform for longitudinal studies and is the first study to involve forensic experts from different countries. It will enable more globally collaborative studies to be undertaken.

持续质量改进在体检科护理质量管理中的应用效果探讨

目的探究持续质量改进在体检科护理质量管理中的应用效果。方法该次将该院在2018年7-12月的体检者200名作为研究的对象,视为对照阶段,采取常规护理管理方法;将该院2019年1-6月的体检者200名作为观察阶段对象,在护理管理工作中采取持续质量改进管理模式,进一步对比两个阶段患者对于体检科工作质量的评分。结果在体检工作质量、服务态度、体检满意度这3个模块,观察阶段评分对照阶段比较均明显更高,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论持续质量改进应用于体检科护理质量管理中,可有效提升体检服务品质,值得推广应用。     

PBL教学法在临床实习护士查房中的应用

目的探讨PBL教学法在临床实习护士查房中的应用。方法选取2018年1月-2018年11月于本院实习的42例护士作为研究对象,按照查房方法的差异分为对照组(21例)与观察组(21例),对照组采用传统查房法,观察组采用PBL教学法。比较两组护理业务成绩、临床各项评价指标得分情况以及对护理查房业务的掌握程度。结果观察组临床护理业务兴趣、自主学习能力、学习效率、回答问题踊跃程度等各项指标得分高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。观察组理论考试、实操训练、病历书写等临床各项评价指标得分高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。观察组对护理查房业务的掌握程度为95.2%,高于对照组的61.9%,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论在临床护理业务查房中应用教学法,建议采纳PBL教学法,在提高实习护士理论知识、提升业务水平和综合能力方面价值显著。     

护理管理在职业健康体检中的干预分析

目的探讨护理管理干预在职业健康检查中的作用,对职业健康体检中护理管理干预进行探究。方法2019年1—6月在该院进行职业健康检查的600名劳动者为研究对象,随机分为两组(对照组,观察组),分析职业健康体检中护理管理干预效果。对照组选取300名在职业健康体检中采用了常规护理干预的受检者,300名受检者作为观察组,该组受检者均给予了护理管理干预。护理前后,分别以自制问卷调查的形式调查600名体检顾客的满意度。结果观察组对护士服务态度、护士操作技能、体检流程与体检环境的满意度分别为93.3%、98.7%、98.7%,体检结果中的血糖、血压、纯音测听、B超阳性率分别8.3%,11.7%,15.3%,5.0%。对照组的满意度分别为73.3%、87.3%、78.7%,体检结果中的血糖、血压、纯音测听、B超阳性率分别为17.3%,20.7%,24.3%,13.7%。结论实施护理管理干预提高了职业健康体检客户的满意度,在职业健康体检中,对体检人员予以护理管理干预,能有效提升护理服务水平,能够有效缩短体检者的体检时间,提高体检质量、体检效率及受检者的满意度。     

健康干预对铁路职工体质指数的影响

目的评价对铁路职工超重人群进行健康干预后体质指数(BMI)的影响,探索适合铁路职工超重人群的干预模式。方法将2017-2018年在北京局集团天津铁路疾病预防控制所体检中心进行体检的506例天津地区铁路职工随机分为观察组和对照组,各253例,对观察组BMI超标人群进行积极的心理、运动及饮食指导等健康干预,周期为1年,对照组仅随访观察。比较两组BMI变化。结果观察组干预后BMI合格率为51.00%,高于对照组的32.00%,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论规律的有氧运动和膳食干预,能有效改善超重人群的BMI,在铁路职工超重人群中进行健康干预,能有效改变生活方式,增强身体机能,减少肥胖各类相关疾病的发生。     

Cognitive and behavioral profile of Perry syndrome in two families

ObjectivePerry syndrome (PS) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder with autosomal dominant inheritance caused by point mutations in DCTN1 and characterized by parkinsonism, hypoventilation, weight loss, and psychiatric symptoms. Even though behavioral manifestation is a main feature of PS, detailed neuropsychological assessment was not performed in this cohort. In this study, the neuropsychological profile of individuals from one Polish and one Colombian family are presented.MethodsDetailed clinical and neuropsychological data were obtained from Polish and Colombian families. Clinical and neuropsychological examinations on the proband from the Polish family were performed 6 times over 11 years. Each of 3 individuals from the Colombian family received a clinical and neuropsychological assessment.ResultsThe neurologic examination showed severe parkinsonism, levodopa-induced motor fluctuations, and dyskinesias in all cases. Respiratory insufficiency was observed in 2 patients and weight loss in 1 individual. Neuropsychological assessment revealed predominant deterioration of working memory and learning capacity in the Polish patient. He also demonstrated compulsive behaviors, such as excessive shopping and eating, but only in the “on” phase. In the Colombian family, attentional deficits were present in 2 out of 3 cases. Out of 4 reported cases apathy and depressed mood were present in 2 individuals. Two cases demonstrated impulsivity and one had episodes of hypomania.ConclusionsBoth of these families revealed relatively similar neurologic and neuropsychological profiles. The Polish patient's behavioral and neuropsychological profile was mostly compatible with a behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia. Of note, not only depression and apathy, but also impulsivity can occur in PS.
