Evidence that peroxynitrite affects human osteoblast proliferation and differentiation.

Peroxynitrite (PN), a nitric oxide (NO*)-derived anion, has been associated with NO* damage in various cell types. We examined the effects of adding PN to cultured human osteoblast-like (hOB) cells obtained after hip arthroplasty. Exposure to PN (0.1-0.4 mM) decreased both hOB proliferation and differentiation, measured by [3H]thymidine uptake and alkaline phosphatase production, respectively. Incubation with 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1; 0.25-1 mM), an NO* and O2- donor that leads to PN release, also reduced both hOB proliferation and differentiation. Coincubation with both superoxide dismutase (SOD; 100 U/ml) and catalase (CAT; 50 U/ml), rendering SIN-1 a pure NO* donor, reversed its effects on hOB proliferation and differentiation. However, SIN-1-induced NO* production, measured by nitrite release to the hOB medium, was not altered by cotreatment with SOD and CAT. Expression of nitrotyrosine by hOB, a marker of PN action, was significantly increased after SIN-1 addition, as compared with untreated cells, as revealed by Western blot analysis. Interleukin-1alpha (IL-1alpha) and interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) but not tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) also significantly increased nitrotyrosine expression in these cells. These data show that PN is at least partially responsible for osteoblast derangement by NO* and that cytokines released during inflammatory arthropathies can induce PN production in hOB cells.

The relationship between maternal needs and priorities in a neonatal intensive care environment

AIM: The aim of this study was to investigate the nature and organization of maternal needs and priorities in a neonatal unit. BACKGROUND: The relationship between maternal needs and priorities appears to be an under studied area in neonatal nursing. METHODS: A quantitative survey was carried out based on 209 mothers with premature infants. Two self-assessment schedules were used: critical care maternal needs inventory (J. Leske, Heart and Lung 15, 27-42) and a ranking scale. The data were analysed with multivariate analysis. FINDINGS: Data analysis revealed clear priorities in maternal needs. In particular the need for accurate infant related information was a priority for 93% of the mothers. Good communication practices with professionals were also valued. The mothers displayed altruistic behaviour, and self-related needs took second place. It is proposed that maternal needs demonstrate a hierarchical organization. CONCLUSION: It is important for nurses to consider the individual needs of the mothers, simply because the satisfaction of these needs is essential for maternal well-being.     

The role of the nurse in active euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide

The researchers wanted to obtain insight into the cooperation between physicians and nurses with regard to active euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide (EAS). In study I a stratified random sample of 203 clinical specialists, 152 general practitioners (GPs) and 50 nursing home physicians (NHPs) participated. In study II a random sample of 521 GPs was drawn from the province of North Holland and a random sample of 521 GPs was drawn from the rest of the Netherlands. For study III all NHPs were approached. Data were collected by means of an interview in study I. In studies II and III an anonymous, postal questionnaire was used. Approximately half of the GPs did not consult with nurses about a patient's request for EAS, the intention to administer EAS, and the actual administration. In 5% of cases, the NHPs and the specialists did not consult with nurses concerning these aspects. The GPs and NHPs indicated in 4% and 3% of the cases, respectively, that nurses administered the lethal drug(s) to the patients; the corresponding figure for the specialists was 21%. Almost all GPs and NHPs and about three-quarters of the specialists thought that nurses should never be allowed to administer EAS.     

Test-retest reliability of audio-taped phallometric stimuli with adolescent sexual offenders

Twenty adolescent male sexual offenders were evaluated by penile plethysmography on two separate occasions. Stimuli consisted of 19, two-minute audiotaped cues. Test-retest reliability was demonstrated for 15 of the 19 audiotaped vignettes. The highest correlations were found for those sexual behaviors in which the adolescents had engaged.     

DISEASE-MODIFYING ANTIRHEUMATIC DRUGS IN RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS: CURRENT CONCEPTS

SUMMARY Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs are used in virtually all patients with established rheumatoid arthritis. An increasingly large number of new drugs is now available. Furthermore, old therapies are being used in novel ways. Treatment is now begun earlier and patients are rarely left untreated. This report summarises recent developments regarding the drugs currently in use and those that may be available in the near future.
