Article Synopsis
- This study assessed the attitudes of nursing students in Turkey towards voluntary induced abortion, using a survey distributed to students from two universities.
- Students showed a moderate level of support for abortion, with variations based on demographics like gender, socioeconomic background, and personal experiences.
- The study suggests that nursing education should promote non-judgmental attitudes towards women seeking abortions.
Aims And Objectives: To evaluate the factors affecting readiness for discharge and perceived social support after childbirth.
Background: Many women still die during and following pregnancy and childbirth. Both early and late discharges are conflicting issues in the world.
Aim: The aims in this study were to evaluate the role of brain F-FDG PET imaging in differential diagnosis of parkinsonism and to correlate brain metabolism findings with patients' clinical findings.
Methods: Brain F-FDG PET images were evaluated both visually and quantitatively using the NeuroQ software in 21 parkinsonism patients in whom final clinical diagnoses were established.
Results: Final clinical diagnoses were idiopathic Parkinson disease in 7, multisystem atrophy (MSA) in 7, progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) in 4, corticobasal degeneration in 2, and Lewy body disease in 1 patient.
