BackgroundLow birth weight (LBW) in infants is a critical issue worldwide. If the issue is not recognized early, it can lead to high mortality and morbidity rates. Mothers and caregivers of LBW newborns holds a great responsibility and need appropriate information and expertise in caring for the LBW newborns. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a Nurse led structured teaching program (NLSTP) on the knowledge and practice of mothers of LBW infants.MethodsA quantitative pre-experimental one group pre-test post-test research study was conducted. A sample of 30 postnatal mothers of LBW babies meeting the inclusion criteria were selected. The knowledge and practices of postnatal mothers on the care of LBW babies was tested using a structured interview schedule and a checklist before the administration of NLSTP. Thereafter, the NLSTP was conducted using an educational booklet. After the NLSTP, the knowledge and practice were assessed on the 7th day.ResultsThe findings of the study reflected poor knowledge and practice scores before the intervention in the pre-test. However, the mothers gained a good level of knowledge showing marked improvement in their practices after the NLSTP was implemented. The mean post-test knowledge score (17.6) was significantly higher than the mean pre-test knowledge score (10.8) with a SD of +1.33. Likewise, the mean post-test practice score (15.6) was significantly higher than the mean pre-test practice score (8.23) with a SD of +7.5. The paired ‘t’ test computed between pre-test and post-test knowledge scores (t = 67.6) and practice scores (t = 5.28) were highly significant at p ≤ 0.05 level. A significant association was found between the pre-test knowledge scores and monthly family income (p < 0.05 level).ConclusionThis study highlights that post-natal mothers have a lack of expertise in caring for their LBW babies. The NLSTP targeted at improving the knowledge and practices of post-natal mothers regarding the care of their LBW babies can help reduce the morbidity and mortality rates of LBW babies. 相似文献

A new source of factitial dermatitis in adolescents is the “salt and ice challenge.” This “challenge” causes frostbite on the child's body, resulting in epidermal necrosis with occasional bulla. The following is the case of a 12‐year‐old girl who underwent the “salt and ice challenge.” 相似文献

The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MEK/ERK) signaling pathways are critical for normal human physiology, and any alteration in their regulation leads to several human cancers. These pathways are well interconnected and share a survival mechanism for escaping the depressant effect of antagonists. Therefore, novel small molecules capable of targeting both pathways with minimal or no toxicity are better alternatives to current drugs, which are disadvantaged by their accompanying resistance and toxicity. In this study, we demonstrate that the PI3K/AKT/mTOR/MEK is a crucial oncoimmune signature in multiple cancers. Moreover, we describe NSC777213, a novel isoflavone core and cobimetinib-inspired small molecule, which exhibit both antiproliferative activities against all panels of NCI60 human tumor cell lines (except COLO205 and HT29) and a selective cytotoxic preference for melanoma, non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), brain, renal, and ovarian cancer cell lines. Notably, for NSC777213 treatment, chemoresistant ovarian cancer cell lines, including SK-OV-3, OVCAR-3, OVCAR-4, and NCI/ADR-RES, exhibited a higher antiproliferative sensitivity (total growth inhibition (TGI) = 7.62-31.50 µM) than did the parental cell lines OVCAR-8 and IGROV1 (TGI > 100 µM). NSC777213 had a mechanistic correlation with clinical inhibitors of PI3K/AKT/mTOR/MEK. NSC777213 demonstrates robust binding interactions and higher affinities for AKT and mTOR than did isoflavone, and also demonstrate a higher affinity for human MEK-1 kinase than some MEK inhibitors under clinical developments. In addition, treatment of U251 and U87MG cells with NSC777213 significantly downregulated the expression levels of the total and phosphorylated forms of PI3K/AKT/mTOR/MEK. Our study suggests that NSC777213 is a promising PI3K/AKT/mTOR/MEK inhibitor for further preclinical and clinical evaluation as a chemotherapeutic agent, particularly for the treatment of NSCLC, melanoma, and brain, renal, and ovarian cancers. 相似文献

BackgroundThis analysis was performed to describe the outcome of very elderly (≥ 80 years) patients with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) as there is no published data regarding these patients.Materials and MethodsOne hundred forty-six very elderly patients with SCLC were identified from the Institutional Lung Cancer Database ranging in age from 80 to 92 years (median, 82 years). Of these, 47 (32%) patients had limited-stage SCLC (L-SCLC), and 99 (68%) had extensive-stage SCLC (E-SCLC). All were Caucasian, and the majority (64%) were female. Sixty-seven (46%) patients had Zubrod performance status (PS) of 0 to 1.ResultsOf the 146 patients, 44 (30%) received no therapy, 65 (45%) received chemotherapy alone, 27 (19%) received chemotherapy plus local therapy (thoracic radiotherapy [TRT] or surgery), and 10 (7%) received local therapy alone. The median survival was 5.4 months. On univariable analysis, age (P = .019), stage (L-SCLC vs. E-SCLC; P = .0002), PS (P < .0001), and treatment option (P < .0001) were associated with survival. On multivariable analysis, stage (P = .011), PS (P = .029), and treatment option (P < .0001) maintained significance. For entire cohort, the median survival was 1.3 months without active therapy, 6 months with local therapy alone, 7.2 months with chemotherapy alone, and 14.4 months with chemotherapy plus local therapy (P < .0001, univariable and multivariable). Similar survival findings in response to treatment were found when the L-SCLC and E-SCLC cohorts were separately analyzed.ConclusionsThe survival of very elderly patients with SCLC was associated with stage (L-SCLC vs. E-SCLC), PS, and treatment option. Very elderly patients with SCLC often have limited functional reserve required to tolerate aggressive multimodality therapy but appeared to benefit from it. Geriatric assessments, careful monitoring, and extra support are warranted in elderly patients. Care should be individualized based on the desires and needs of each patient. 相似文献

Rhinitis medicamentosa occurs with repeated and prolonged use of topical decongestants. The resultant reduced ability to respond to decongestants mediated via enlarged capillary endothelial gaps can lead to profuse bleeding during turbinate surgery. We recommend that patients with rhinitis medicamentosa be weaned off topical decongestants prior to elective turbinate surgery to minimize this complication. The management of rhinitis medicamentosa and a case of intraoperative hemorrhage are presented. Laryngoscope, 2010 相似文献
