A study used the health belief model to examine mothers' adherence to asthma medication regimens for their children. Interviews found that mothers were more likely to comply when they believed their child's asthma was serious and could interfere with the child's activities. Mothers also complied more if the child's asthma interfered with their own activities. Factors like medication schedules and accessibility issues negatively impacted compliance. Married mothers and those with more education were more likely to comply.

Ambivalence towards a prospective pregnancy among contraceptive users
This study analyzed data from a one-year follow-up of reversible contraceptive method users in Honduras to determine reasons for inconsistencies between fertility motivations and contraceptive use. The study found that over half of contraceptive users reported it would be no problem if they became pregnant soon, and over half of non-users reported a pregnancy would be a small or big problem. Common reasons among users for saying pregnancy would be no problem included side effects and relationship issues, while common reasons among non-users for seeing a pregnancy as a problem included economic difficulties and wanting to space children. The study highlights inconsistencies in reported fertility desires and contraceptive behaviors over time.

The document discusses several clinical trials being conducted by Global Clinical Trials to research treatments for various conditions. It summarizes trials for Alzheimer's disease, adolescent schizophrenia, irritable bowel syndrome, and Tardive Dyskinesia. The Alzheimer's trial is investigating whether a drug called azeliragon can slow progression of mild Alzheimer's. The adolescent schizophrenia trial aims to determine if the drug lurasidone is safe and effective for teens with schizophrenia. Trials are also working to develop treatments for IBS and Tardive Dyskinesia, two conditions that currently lack effective treatment options. Participation in these studies helps advance research that may lead to improved treatment or cures for these diseases.
Ondansetron in pregnancy
This document discusses a cohort study examining the risks of the drug ondansetron, which is used to treat nausea and vomiting during pregnancy. The study followed a large group of pregnant women exposed to ondansetron and compared outcomes like abortion, birth defects, preterm birth, and low birth weight to unexposed women. The study found no significant increase in these risks with exposure to ondansetron during pregnancy. While definitive conclusions cannot be made, the results provide reassurance about the safety of using this drug to treat nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.
Early peanut intake could prevent allergy
A new study suggests that feeding young children foods containing peanuts beginning in infancy can prevent many peanut allergies, rather than avoiding such foods as has been conventional wisdom. About 2% of American children are allergic to peanuts, a figure that has more than quadrupled since 1997. The study found that children who consumed foods containing peanuts regularly from 4-11 months were far less likely to develop a peanut allergy by age 5. An editorial called the results compelling and said guidelines should be revised to recommend early peanut introduction to help reverse the rising prevalence of peanut allergies.

Providing Care for Drug Exposed Newborns: Time for The Next Step
This document discusses the opioid epidemic's impact on drug-exposed newborns and different approaches to their care. Traditional care involved prolonged hospitalization and medication for withdrawal symptoms. However, recent studies show that allowing infants to room-in with mothers and emphasizing family-centered care can decrease medication needs, length of stay, and costs while improving outcomes. A quality improvement project demonstrated that standardized protocols combined with family involvement safely reduced treatment and stayed while maintaining care quality.
Trial women empower women dr.s.k.jain acta medica international
This editorial discusses the importance of including women in medical research trials. It notes that women have historically been excluded from many studies due to concerns about potential risks to pregnancy. However, this means that little is known about how drugs and other treatments affect women. The editorial argues that women of childbearing age should not be excluded from research altogether, but that special informed consent is needed to discuss any potential risks to pregnancy. Researchers must make efforts to minimize gender bias and ensure women are represented in both the design and participation of medical studies.

Nicole's daughter was diagnosed with epilepsy six years ago. She has struggled with controlling her seizures as her medication was often switched during step therapy trials, forcing her to end up back in the emergency room. Continuity of care is important for Nicole's daughter, as certain medications made by specific manufacturers work best to regulate her seizures. Nicole advocates for allowing patients continued access to medications that are proven effective for their individual conditions and health needs.
2013 Up Coming SUNLOWS
The document summarizes seminars from the SUNLOWS 2013 seminar series on research studies related to mental health. It describes 6 studies presented at various seminars, including studies on caregiving for those with psychosis, interventions to assist caregivers of people with anorexia nervosa, service users' experiences of recovery programs, and a study comparing family therapy approaches for at-risk youth. The studies covered topics like developing models of caregiver relationships, how caregiver traits impact patient functioning, reducing caregiver distress and improving coping skills, and investigating treatment approaches for conditions like anorexia nervosa and antisocial behavior in youth.
Obese Children
The document discusses a study that found obese children may have higher rates of food allergies than non-obese children. Specifically, the study found the rate of food allergies was 59% higher for obese children. Common food allergies for obese children included milk, eggs, seafood and nuts. However, the results do not prove that obesity causes allergies, and more research is needed to investigate this potential link. While the relationship is still unclear, controlling obesity in young people may help lower rates of childhood allergies and asthma.

This document summarizes a research study that examined whether the quality of the relationship between mothers with HIV/AIDS and their children moderated the association between children's knowledge of their mother's illness and the children's psychosocial adjustment. The study involved 86 African American mother-child dyads where the mothers had HIV/AIDS. It found that a warm and supportive mother-child relationship buffered against externalizing difficulties in children who knew of their mother's illness, more so than in children who did not know. The quality of the relationship did not moderate the association between knowledge and children's internalizing difficulties. This suggests that a positive relationship can protect children from some negative impacts of knowing about their mother's stigmatized and serious illness.

This document discusses a nursing clinical leadership role in facilitating successful outcomes for neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) babies and their mothers during the postpartum period and at discharge. NAS occurs when newborns experience withdrawal symptoms after in-utero exposure to opioids or other addictive substances. Nursing leadership can help by identifying themes to enhance interaction between NAS babies and their mothers dealing with postpartum substance withdrawal, and by setting standards of practice for caring for substance-exposed newborns and families. The purpose is to examine the effects of opioid withdrawal on bonding and examine nursing's role in facilitating successful outcomes and discharge for this high-risk population.

Unsafe abortion among adolescents can lead to medical complications, psychological stress, and social/economic consequences. Medical complications of unsafe abortion include severe infections, severe bleeding, intrauterine blood clots, chronic pelvic infection, secondary infertility, and an increased risk of ectopic pregnancy or premature labor. Psychologically, adolescents may experience worry towards sexual intercourse. Socially and economically, adolescents who have unsafe abortions may face disapproving attitudes in their community and increase future health care costs. The document recommends that parents educate themselves to support their children, schools provide sex education and contraceptives for adolescents, and adolescents avoid sex, use contraception, and seek medical advice if pregnant or needing an abortion.

This study examined the relationship between the type of offense committed and how offenders attribute blame for their criminal acts. It administered the 42-item Blame Attribution Inventory to 80 criminals serving sentences in Northern Ireland, divided into groups that committed violent, sexual, or property offenses. Results showed that sexual offenders expressed the most remorse, followed by violent offenders, while violent offenders scored highest on external attribution of blame. When compared to previous findings from England, Irish violent prisoners showed lower scores on mental element, guilt, and higher external attribution. The conclusions were that attribution of blame was largely consistent across offender groups and countries, with some differences found for violent offenders during Northern Ireland's period of conflict.

In July 2014, a new multilateral and Southern-led development bank is expected to be launched by the leaders of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa – better known as the BRICS. The BRICS Development Bank will provide a fresh source of finance for developing and emerging economies to meet their development needs. Little has been made public regarding the proposed Bank’s core mandate or activities but while governments negotiate the technicalities of the Bank, it is critical that they also provide a solid vision of the principles, priorities and objectives on which the Bank’s activities and operations will be premised. This policy brief recommends that these include commitments to: ending extreme poverty and inequality, with a special focus on gender equity and women’s rights; aligning with environmental and social safeguards and establishing mechanisms for information sharing, accountability and redress; leadership on the sustainable development agenda; the creation of mechanisms for public consultation and debate; and the adoption a truly democratic governance structure.

Introduction of the Identified Subtheme
The role of medical administration has advanced lately and become more demanding and time-consuming task leading to high possibility error due to the complexity of the medication administration. The fact remains that the patient relies on other people who control their life to keep them alive. It has led to the significant impact of young children suffering from leukemia when physicians administer the wrong drugs or cause an error on prescriptions.
Medication administration error is not a unique thing according to the review articles. Upon review of the identified items, most of the research concentrated on the after effect of the wrong administration while others focus on the process that leads to incorrect prescriptions leading to more sickness and problem on the children. One of the significant contents is the damage to the cognitive development of the children even after successful treatment. It shows that the moment a child is given the wrong drug other than the one to treat leukemia, it led to slow development of motor skills even after the change of the medication.
Another content identified is the ability to cope with pain due to medication error. The articles focus on the panic caused to the children under five-year old now changing the medication and prolonged time to take the actual drug. Another significant effort of error in drug administration include an increased rate of fungal and bacterial infection on young children developing a life-threatening disease. It shows that medical error on young children suffering from leukemia lacks enough blood cell, especially white blood cell to fight other the wrong drug in the blood leading to high risk of additional infection. Another impact includes difficult in developing adaptive function compared with other children of the same age group. It led to the loss information process even after recovering from leukemia.
Error in the administration of the right medication in children suffering from leukemia is highly associated with cancer. Wrong medicine administers to children mostly led to cancer since the children have no capabilities of fighting the drug on their own leading to worsening of the leukemia conditions. Given the presence of a parent in raising the children, medical administration error also leads to post-traumatic stress to the parents and guardian since they fear the children may fail to recover or lead to other mental problems.
Summary of the Research Question Posed by the Studies
Some issues include the process of prescribing, dispensing, and parental administration of these dru ...
Sore throat disease
1) The study surveyed 298 patients visiting family doctors for acute sore throat pain to understand their reasons for visiting and expectations.
2) The top three reasons patients visited were to establish the cause of symptoms, get pain relief, and learn about the illness course. Hopes for antibiotics ranked 11th out of 13 items.
3) Patients hoping for antibiotics valued pain relief more and felt less well than others. They had more faith in antibiotics and were less convinced sore throat is self-limiting.
4) The desire for pain relief strongly predicted hoping to get an antibiotic prescription, even after adjusting for other factors. This suggests patients wanting antibiotics may believe it is the best pain treatment.
Helping patients manage therapeutic regimens 1
This document discusses strategies for improving communication between healthcare providers and patients regarding medication adherence. It covers techniques for assessing patient understanding, establishing new medication-taking behaviors, motivating behavior change, and preventing relapse. It also addresses important considerations for communicating with children about medications, such as accounting for their cognitive development level. The overall goal is to help patients better manage their therapeutic medication regimens through effective communication.

Helping patients manage therapeutic regimens 1
This document discusses strategies for improving patient adherence to medication regimens. It notes that non-adherence can be caused by patient behaviors, healthcare providers, or the healthcare system. The document recommends that physicians emphasize key points, give concrete instructions, and allow feedback to improve patient understanding. It also suggests helping patients integrate new behaviors, providing compliance aids, and monitoring medication use to establish adherence. Motivational interviewing focuses on willingness, self-efficacy, and readiness to change and identifies stages of behavior change from precontemplation to maintenance.
Jacip jan 1
This document presents a debate on whether preschool children experiencing acute wheezing episodes should be treated with oral corticosteroids (OCS). The pro side argues that many preschool children with recurrent wheezing develop atopic disease and sensitization which predicts increased risk of asthma and response to OCS therapy. Studies have shown heterogeneity in design and populations making it difficult to make definitive recommendations against OCS use. The con side argues that most studies have not demonstrated beneficial effects of OCS for acute wheezing in preschool children. Repeated OCS bursts may also be associated with adverse effects. Both sides agree more efficacy trials are needed targeting phenotypes likely to respond to OCS.
Complementary or alternative? The use of homeopathic products and antibiotics...
Any intervention to reduce the inappropriate use of antibiotics for infections in
children has the potential to reduce the selective pressure on antimicrobial resistance and minimise
the medicalisation of self-limiting illness. Little is known about whether homeopathic products
might be used by some families as an alternative to antibiotics or the characteristics of such families.
We used the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) observational dataset to
explore the hypothesis that the use of homeopathic products is associated with reduced antibiotic
use in pre-school children and to identify characteristics of the families of pre-school children given
homeopathic products.

1. The study examines barriers faced by respiratory therapists in providing asthma education to caregivers of pediatric patients at a hospital.
2. Therapists saw non-compliance with asthma action plans, lack of medication availability, and social circumstances as significant barriers.
3. Analysis found caregivers' belief systems and financial situations adversely affected children's health by perpetuating barriers and non-compliance.
Effective nursing care through researh
Nursing students are often required to participate in research studies to earn their nursing degree. This provides benefits to both the student and the nursing field. Students gain first-hand experience and build their knowledge in a particular subject. Their research also contributes to the overall body of nursing knowledge used to train new nurses. Research is necessary to determine best practices and improve nursing care quality based on evidence. Some students may even choose to pursue careers in nursing research due to their experience.

This document summarizes a study examining breastfeeding counseling provided during routine preventive visits from the perspectives of both mothers and their clinicians. The study involved surveying 429 mother-newborn pairs and their 121 obstetric and pediatric clinicians. The results identified several areas of disagreement between what mothers reported discussing with clinicians regarding breastfeeding duration, continuation after returning to work, and specific advice provided, highlighting potential unintentional gaps in communication around breastfeeding counseling during routine visits.
Research2
This document discusses a study on patient education and its role in minimizing pediatric medication errors. The study surveyed 41 mothers in Tikrit Teaching Hospital's pediatric ward on the questions they asked pharmacists about their children's medications. Most mothers had low education levels and previous hospital admissions. While many asked about drug names and dosages, only highly educated mothers asked about side effects. The conclusion is that medical staff should provide detailed education to mothers, especially those with low health literacy, to develop better healthcare outcomes.
Systematic Review Poster.ppt
This document summarizes a systematic review of interventions to increase whooping cough (pertussis) vaccination rates. The review analyzed 25 studies and identified 5 that met the criteria of focusing on behavior-based interventions. Physician-led interventions showed the best results in increasing vaccinations. The review recommends allocating more funding to vaccination promotion campaigns and putting administrative pressure on physicians to advocate for vaccinations. Future interventions should utilize health behavior theories like the Health Belief Model to address barriers and increase perceived risk of the disease.
Impact of health education on tuberculosis drug adherence
Adherence is defined as the extent to which patients follow the instructions they are given for prescribed treatments. Until recently, adherence expertise was hard to find, assemble and empower. The study shall solely aim at investigating the influence of patients’ health education on Tuberculosis drug adherence. It will be guided by the following specific objectives; to identify the level of adherence among TB patients at MTRH, to assess the level of patient’s health education on TB drugs, to identify barriers of TB education, to investigate the challenges facing TB patients on treatment and to determine the level of training given to health workers on TB drug adherence. These objectives will enable the researcher to elaborate more on the topic and ensure that those who read through this research shall have a better perspective on the effects of health education on tuberculosis drug adherence. It will take place between the months of July and August. The study will target 17 doctors, 119 nurses and 143 patients of Tuberculosis. The study will employ a case study research design. The case study will enable the researcher be able to collected detailed information as to the influence of patients’ health education on TB drug adherence. The study will employ purposive sampling to sample the doctors and simple random sampling to select both the nurses and the patients who will participate in the study. The researcher will use one research instrument to collect data from the respondents selected to participate in the study which is a questionnaire that will be issued to the respondents on the day of the data collection.

This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of polypharmacy, antibiotic and supplement use in patients through a retrospective analysis of prescriptions from hospitals and community pharmacies in Lahore and Faisal Abad, Pakistan. The prevalence of polypharmacy (use of 5+ medications) was 40%. Drug-drug interactions occurred in 17% of prescriptions. Factors associated with polypharmacy included diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and joint pains. The cost per prescription per day was 174.70 Pakistani rupees. Elderly patients commonly experienced polypharmacy and used supplements. Further analysis of prescribing patterns could help improve rational and cost-effective medical care.

Mother's action
This document summarizes a study that examined mothers' actions and treatment preferences for febrile illnesses in under-five-year-old children in Osun State, Nigeria. 150 mothers of febrile children across 7 health institutions participated in interviews. Results showed that most mothers took initial home care and bought drugs from chemists as a first response. While fever prompted treatment, many mothers lacked knowledge of proper drug dosages. Treatment preferences increased from herbs to chemists to hospitals as lines of treatment. Mothers with lower education were more likely to use herbs initially. The study concluded that training is needed for mothers on appropriate drug use and treatment of febrile illnesses in children.

This article reviews literature on primary non-adherence of prescribed pharmaceutical treatments. It identified 53 studies, including 16 on cost-related non-adherence. Commonly cited factors for non-adherence included age, gender, race, mental health, comorbidities, polypharmacy, medication beliefs, side effects, affordability, education, healthcare utilization, patient-physician relationship, prescriber traits, and forgetfulness. Issues related to affordability were the most frequently cited factor. The relevance of predictors and causes varied between studies. The review aims to inform future research by compiling known factors associated with primary non-adherence.

The study aimed to examine the thinking patterns of 255 male convicted offenders over 14 years. Interviews found that criminals have distinct thinking patterns compared to non-criminals, including feeling restless and irritable, seeing requests as impositions, wanting excitement at any cost, and lacking empathy. Criminals were also found to be poor decision-makers who deny responsibility. While most dropped out, only 9 changed after the program, suggesting criminals have ingrained cognitive processes leading to a distorted self-image and criminal choices.
Wheatley
A study examined the effects of acupuncture treatment on 350 prisoners receiving drug addiction treatment. Prisoners received either standard treatment alone or standard treatment plus acupuncture delivered in group sessions by trained practitioners. Qualitative reports from prisoners found improvements in sleep, relaxation, coping skills, and cravings after acupuncture. Quantitatively, the study found a 70% reduction in drug incidents, 41% reduction in serious reports, and 42-33% reduction in positive drug tests from pre- to post-treatment periods. The researcher concluded acupuncture was an effective complementary therapy to standard drug treatment programs in prisons.
Watt et al
The study aimed to see if using a Funhaler, an inhaler with toys that function with deep breathing, could improve adherence to asthma medication in children. Thirty-two Australian children aged 1.5-6 years old used a standard inhaler for one week and the Funhaler the next week, and parents reported on medication adherence. The findings showed that parents reported medicating their children the previous day 38% more often when using the Funhaler compared to the standard inhaler. The conclusion was that making medical regimens fun through incentives like the Funhaler's toys can improve adherence, especially in children.
Watson and raynor
Little Albert was a child used in a study by Watson and Raynor to induce and test a fear response through classical conditioning. They exposed Albert to a rat followed by a loud noise to condition him to fear the rat, then tested if this fear generalized to other similar objects like rabbits and fuzzy materials. The study aimed to see if fear could be induced, if it would transfer, how time affected the response, and how to remove the fear in the lab.
The cognitive interview
The cognitive interview is a technique used by interviewers to help witnesses recall events more accurately. It was developed in the 1980s and combines insights from social and cognitive psychology. The cognitive interview uses multiple memory retrieval strategies, encourages witnesses to recreate the original context, and exploits the associative nature of human memory by using different starting points to access memories. It aims to reduce errors and confabulation by addressing how expectations can influence recall according to schema theory. More recent versions give more control to witnesses and encourage creating a mental image of the event.
Social approach
The document discusses the social approach in social psychology, which analyzes human behavior through the influence of others, groups, society, and culture. It examines key researchers like Milgram and methods like experiments, surveys, and observations. While the approach has demonstrated social influences and explained various phenomena, its weaknesses include oversimplifying individual differences and some research being considered unethical.
Sherman and strang
The document reviews the effectiveness of restorative justice (RJ) in preventing reoffending. It finds that RJ reduces reoffending for violence and property crimes, especially when there is a personal victim, and it is more effective if violence was part of the original crime. RJ also improves victims' mental health by reducing trauma symptoms and helping them process what happened. The conclusion is that there is strong evidence RJ works in some cases, especially for young offenders, and police forces are gaining expertise in RJ conferencing.
Rotter
Rotter reviewed six studies on internal versus external locus of control, finding that participants who felt in control of outcomes (internal locus) were more likely to engage in behaviors to cope with threats, versus those feeling outcomes were due to chance (external locus). Specifically, male smokers who successfully quit smoking had a higher internal locus than those who relapsed, though this difference was not significant for female smokers due to other factors like weight gain.
Pickel
The document summarizes a study that investigated the effect of judicial instructions to disregard inadmissible evidence presented in a mock trial. Specifically, it examined how juror credibility ratings of witnesses and verdicts were impacted when judges provided legal explanations for their instructions to ignore evidence versus no explanation. Results showed that witness credibility was the only statistically significant factor influencing juror decisions under the conditions tested. Further analysis confirmed confidence is a poor predictor of witness accuracy.
Nemeth and wachtler
The study investigated how perceived autonomy and consistency influence minority views in a group. In a mock trial experiment, participants deliberated compensation amounts, with a confederate suggesting a deviant lower amount. When the confederate chose their own seat or sat at the head of the table, perceived as more autonomous, their minority view had more influence over the group. Being consistent in the view also increased influence, even affecting decisions in a second case.
Kohlberg moral
Kohlberg was fascinated by Piaget's work on moral development in children. His 1963 doctoral thesis outlined six stages of moral development and aimed to find evidence of progression through these stages. The study involved 58 boys aged 7-16 from Chicago who were given moral dilemmas to solve in interviews over several years. Younger boys tended to reason at earlier stages while older boys used later stage reasoning, providing support for Kohlberg's stage theory of moral development. While the methodology has been criticized, later studies found criminals committing financially-motivated crimes displayed more immature moral reasoning than violent criminals.
Ireland
The document summarizes a study that investigated whether anger management courses are effective for young male offenders. It describes a study with 50 prisoners who completed an anger management course and a control group of 37 prisoners who did not. Measures of wing behavior, cognitive interviews, and self-reported anger were collected before and after for both groups. Results showed significant reductions in reported and observed anger and aggression for prisoners who took the course, but not the control group. However, the study did not collect long-term recidivism data.
Individual differences
Individual differences psychology analyzes individuals from the perspective of their uniqueness, focusing on how people differ rather than generalizing to all people. It uses a range of methods like case studies, participant observation, and literature reviews to gain a deeper understanding of exceptional cases and different groups. While providing practical applications for treating mental illness and understanding diverse cultures, the approach also has disadvantages like potential lack of scientific rigor, subjectivity, and limited generalizability due to focusing on small, unique groups.
Gottesman and shields
This document reviews adoption and twin studies on schizophrenia conducted between 1967 and 1976. The studies found that adopted children with schizophrenic biological parents were more likely to develop schizophrenia than those with non-schizophrenic biological parents or adoptive parents. Twin studies also found higher concordance rates of schizophrenia in identical twins compared to fraternal twins, indicating a genetic component. However, concordance rates were below 100%, suggesting both genetic and environmental factors contribute to schizophrenia.
Geer and maisel (start)
Controlled individuals reported less stress than those without control. Both perceived and actual control reduced stress reactions to unpleasant stimuli, though actual control had a greater impact. Providing individuals with some level of control over stressful events can help reduce physiological and psychological stress responses.
Bandura and adams
The document summarizes a study that assessed self-efficacy in patients undergoing desensitization treatment for snake phobias. Ten patients participated in a standardized desensitization program involving relaxation and exposure to images and live snakes. Pre- and post-treatment assessments found that patients with higher levels of increased self-efficacy after treatment engaged more with snakes, supporting the theory that enhancing self-efficacy leads to a belief in one's ability to cope with phobic stimuli.
Cutler et al
- The study investigated whether expert witness testimony about the limitations of eyewitness identification would make jurors more skeptical of eyewitness testimony.
- 538 undergraduate students participated in a mock trial involving eyewitness identification under varying conditions of witnessing and confidence levels.
- Results showed expert testimony increased juror knowledge and attention to witnessing conditions. It decreased reliance on witness confidence alone and did not make jurors overly skeptical, instead improving sensitivity to evidence problems.
Farrington et al
This study followed 411 boys from childhood to age 48 to document patterns of offending behavior over time. The study found that criminal behavior peaked at ages 17-18 and that boys who began offending between ages 10-13 were more likely to reoffend. A small proportion (7%) were chronic offenders responsible for about half of recorded offenses. While most boys desisted from crime, the proportion leading successful lives increased from 78% at age 32 to 88% at age 48. Early prevention targeting at-risk youth under age 10 could significantly reduce criminality and related problems by addressing key risk factors like family criminality, poverty, impulsiveness, and poor school performance.
Canter and heritage
The document summarizes research analyzing 66 cases of sexual assault to identify patterns in offender behavior. The analysis found five key variables that were central to most cases: vaginal intercourse, no reaction to the victim, impersonal language, surprise attack, and removal of the victim's clothing. This suggests the attacks were impersonal and sudden, with the victim's response being irrelevant. The researcher concluded this method can help understand how an offender's behavior changes across offenses or determine if multiple offenses were committed by the same person, establishing his 5-factor theory of offender profiling.
Beck et al
Beck et al. interviewed 50 patients diagnosed with depression aged 18 to 48 who were undergoing therapy, as well as a control group of 31 non-depressed patients, to understand cognitive distortions. Patients reported thoughts before and during therapy sessions and some kept thought diaries. Certain themes of low self-esteem, self-blame, feelings of being overwhelmed, anxiety, and paranoia appeared in depressed patients that were not present in the non-depressed group.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. Know the difference between Endodontics and Orthodontics.

- 1. Becker Compliance with a medical regimen for asthma
- 2. Aim... To use the health belief model to explain mothers’ adherence to a drug regimen for their asthmatic children.
- 3. Methodology... A correlation between beliefs reported during interviews and compliance with self-reported administration of asthma medication. For some participants, a blood test was also used to test level of medication; this confirmed the validity of the mothers answers in the interview.
- 4. Participants... 111 mothers responsible for administering asthma medication to their children. They were aged 17-54 years and the children were aged from 9 months to 17 years.
- 5. Procedure... Each mother was interviewed for about 45 minutes. Mothers were asked questions regarding their perception of their child's susceptibility to illness and asthma, their beliefs about how serious asthma is, how much their child's asthma interfered with the children's education, caused embarrassment and interfered with the mothers activities. They were also asked about their faith in doctors and the effectiveness of the medication.
- 6. Findings... A positive correlation was found between a mothers belief about her child’s susceptibility to asthma attacks and compliance with a medical regimen. This positive correlation also existed between the mothers perception of the child having a serious asthma condition and her administrating the medication as prescribed. Mothers who reported that there child's asthma interfered with their own activities also complied with the medication.
- 7. Continued... The costs which negatively correlated with compliance were disruption of daily activities, inaccessibility of chemists, the child complaining about medication and the prescribed schedule for administering the medication. The two demographic variables correlated with compliance were marital status and education. Married mothers were more likely to comply, and the greater the mothers education, the more likely she would be to keep the prescribed routine for administrating the medication.
- 8. Conclusion... The health belief model is a useful model to predict and explain different levels of compliance with medical regimens.
