Systematic Review of Barriers to and Facilitators of Screening for Postpartum Depression at Well-Child Visits in the United States.

Objective: To identify and evaluate barriers to and facilitators of screening for postpartum depression (PPD) during well-child visits in the United States. Additionally, to describe prior work on PPD screening tool evaluation and outcomes from PPD screenings conducted within the well-child setting.

Data Sources: A systematic review was conducted following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.

The Teddy Bear Clinic: Engaging School-Aged Children in Health Education.

This article describes the use of play therapy in a school-based health clinic on an American Indian Reservation. The project used the play therapy model, a nursing intervention focused on using play materials in a therapeutic manner as a form of communication and self-expression for children, enhancing the development of social, emotional, and behavioral skills through the nursing process. The purpose of the Teddy Bear Clinic was to establish relationships among non-Native student nurses and Native American children and their community on a Northern Plains Indian Reservation.

Engaging Members of a Northern Plains Indian Reservation to Promote Community Responsive Health Care.

This article describes a project to engage community members and to determine how a school nurse-community partnership could improve healthcare equity within an American Indian community. The purpose of this community-building project was to establish a relationship among school nurse practitioners, children, and their community in a Northern Plains Indian reservation using a Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) model. CBPR requires a partnership between community members and school nurses in prioritizing community needs, developing an appropriate intervention, and engaging the community throughout the intervention project process.

The impact of cultural immersion service learning on BSN graduates: A quasi-experimental evaluation.

Aim/objective: The cultural immersion service-learning model evaluated in this study sought to facilitate cultural consciousness of culturally congruent nursing care among predominantly White nursing students attending a university that was racially and culturally homogeneous.

Background: Evidence supports the use of cultural immersion service learning during undergraduate nursing programs in developing the skills necessary for effective transcultural healthcare; yet, little is known about its impact beyond the semester of the experience.

Design: This project used a quasi-experimental design to determine if transcultural self-efficacy of BSN graduates among five campuses differed.

Single-Cell Analysis Uncovers a Vast Diversity in Intracellular Viral Defective Interfering RNA Content Affecting the Large Cell-to-Cell Heterogeneity in Influenza A Virus Replication.

Virus replication displays a large cell-to-cell heterogeneity; yet, not all sources of this variability are known. Here, we study the effect of defective interfering (DI) particle (DIP) co-infection on cell-to-cell variability in influenza A virus (IAV) replication. DIPs contain a large internal deletion in one of their eight viral RNAs (vRNA) and are, thus, defective in virus replication.

Developing a Cultural Immersion Service-Learning Experience for Undergraduate Nursing Students.

Background: Cultural consciousness is a central element of purposeful and appropriate health care delivery. Research suggests that cultural consciousness is strengthened through self-reflection, dialogue about race, and experience within other cultures.

Method: Two cohorts of senior-level nursing students participated in a 1-week cultural immersion service-learning (CISL) experience in an isolated, rural American Indian community.

Engaging Nursing Students in a Rural Native American Community to Facilitate Cultural Consciousness.

Integrating cultural consciousness into nursing curricula is important for preparing a global nursing workforce. This article evaluated the impact of a teaching strategy designed to facilitate nursing students' cultural consciousness beyond the classroom during a 1-week field experience within a rurally isolated Native American community. Cultural consciousness health care is a central element of health care delivery that integrates clinical knowledge, sensitivity, and cultural understanding.

Multiferroic Hysteresis Loop.

Multiferroics, showing both ferroelectric and magnetic order, are promising candidates for future electronic devices. Especially, the fundamental understanding of ferroelectric switching is of key relevance for further improvements, which however is rarely reported in literature. On a prime example for a spin-driven multiferroic, LiCuVO₄, we present an extensive study of the ferroelectric order and the switching behavior as functions of external electric and magnetic fields.

Dielectric properties and electrical switching behaviour of the spin-driven multiferroic LiCuVO4.

The simultaneous existence and coupling of ferroelectric and magnetic ordering in a material, so-called multiferroicity, is of great scientific interest due to the underlying complex physical mechanisms and its possible applications. Here we present the multiferroic properties of a prototypical spin-driven ferroelectric material, the spin-1/2 chain cuprate LiCuVO4. In this system, spiral spin order, with propagation in the b direction and a spin helix in the ab plane, induces ferroelectric polarization in the a direction when no magnetic field is applied.
