Body temperature in postanesthesia patients is considered to be an important vital sign; yet, measurement sites may vary from oral to axillary and rectal to tympanic membrane. The reviewed literature indicated that axillary and rectal temperatures are measures of shell temperature and esophageal and tympanic temperatur…

Responsiveness defines the prompt, contingent, and appropriate reactions parents display to their children in the context of everyday exchanges. Maternal responsiveness occupies a theoretically central position in developmental science and possesses meaningful predictive validity over diverse domains of children's deve…

The issue of job satisfaction among rehabilitation nurses has not been addressed frequently in the literature. This qualitative study was designed to assess rehabilitation nurses' concerns and suggestions for improving the program in a 38-bed acute rehabilitation unit. The study's results indicate that the role of the…

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) occurs at an increased incidence in cancer patients. A cancer-related hypercoagulable state has been considered to play role in this phenomenon. Preclinical data suggest an association between tumor expression of MET proto-oncogene (MET) and a hypercoagulable state, resulting in VTE. We inv…

PURPOSE: The effect of infant formulas sweetened or not with sucrose on primary enamel demineralization and dental biofilm is not known. This study's purpose was to evaluate the effect of infant formula and sucrose association on demineralization of primary enamel and dental biofilm formed. METHODS: A cross-over, spli…

OBJECTIVE: The study's aim was to determine any association between choroid plexus cysts (CPCs) and trisomy 18 in a population of fetuses previously screened by nuchal translucency (NT) thickness measurement. METHODS: During the study period (May 1999 to December 2004), 7,795 fetuses had an NT scan and second-trimeste…

The present study empirically confabulates the authenticity of the "resource curse hypothesis" in selected emerging nations. Furthermore, we also assessed the interconnections of three essential economic indicators with financial development, i.e., human development, political stability, and gross domestic product. To…

Cyberbullying is a form of online aggression between peers, the prevalence of which varies from 10% to 40% according to studies in different countries. A large share of the scientific literature on cyberbullying tends to individualize and medicalize the causes of the violence, without understanding the context in which…

The study's objective was to compare the bronchial hyper-responsiveness (BHR) between those with normal and increased weight and evaluate if the association was sex-specific. In this cross-sectional review of methacholine challenge test results of 1,141 adults for evaluation of respiratory symptoms, logistic regression…

The calculation of a study's required sample size is one of the most important aspects of the validity of an epidemiological study. Logistic regression often is used in modelling in epidemiology. A simplified method to calculate the sample size for the multiple logistic-regression model was proposed by Hsieh et al. [St…

BACKGROUND: In neonatal and early childhood surgeries such as meningomyelocele repairs, closing deep wounds and oncological treatment, tensor fasciae lata (TFL) flaps are used. However, there are not enough data about structural properties of TFL in foetuses, which can be considered as the closest to neonates in terms…

Replicability tests of scientific papers show that the majority of papers fail replication. Moreover, failed papers circulate through the literature as quickly as replicating papers. This dynamic weakens the literature, raises research costs, and demonstrates the need for new approaches for estimating a study's replica…

Further analysis of a previously reported transformational leadership study indicated that the study's 81 excellent nurse executives can be further delineated into four groups based on the difference between the scores of nurse executives and staff for transformational and transactional leadership. Part 1 reports quest…

Even though labor market flexibility continues to be a source of grave concern in terms of employment instability, as evidenced by temporary employment, only a few longitudinal studies have examined the effects of employment instability on the health status of wage workers. Against this backdrop, this study assesses th…

The sustainability of human resource management (HRM) is the basis for an organization's future growth and success. This study aims to investigate achieving HRM sustainability in universities. We use a quantitative research method design to investigate the factors that affect HRM sustainability at universities. The stu…

As Hinshaw (1981) has noted, the process of designing research might best be conceptualized as a series of informed decisions that involve constant trade-offs and compromise. With each advantage gained by a particular theoretical or methodological decision, the researcher inherits a certain number of threats to the stu…

The study's goal was the examination of the hypothesis that transsexualism develops on a diminution of sexual drive which itself is a result of temporal lobe dysfunction. 28 transsexuals were examined. More than 30% of this group showed pathologic findings in EEG recordings. Most of the pathological findings were situa…

A retrospective study of 28 patients who underwent ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy for thyroid nodular disease was performed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound-guided FNA biopsy in detecting malignancy of the thyroid. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative p…
