Aims: Long-term clinical outcome data for second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) are critical for the assessment of safety and efficacy. Five-year results from the RESOLUTE China Registry are presented in this report.
Methods And Results: The RESOLUTE China Registry is a prospective, multicentre, observational study for all-comers requiring coronary stent implantation.
The purpose of this study is to examine how 4 teachers with learning disabilities (LD) negotiate multiple, complex, and sometimes contradictory discourses of disabilities in constructing their own understandings of LD. We chose to study teachers with LD because of their unique access to at least 3 different sources of knowledge about LD: (a) professional discourses on disability, (b) mainstream cultural messages about LD, and (c) insights gained from their own life experience. We drew on aspects of critical discourse analysis and narrative inquiry for this investigation.
