A Conceptual Model for Professional Identity in Nursing: An Interdependent Perspective.

The purpose of this initiative was to define the development, verification, and evolution of the conceptual model for Professional Identity in Nursing. This action research design occurred over two phases, utilizing observations, a modified Norris process for model development, and focus groups. Analysis consisted of conventional content analysis and the Fawcett method for conceptual model analysis and evaluation.

Association between prenatal antibiotic exposure and autism spectrum disorder among term births: A population-based cohort study.

Background: Prenatal antibiotic exposure induces changes in the maternal microbiome, which could influence the development of the infant's microbiome-gut-brain axis.

Objectives: We assessed whether prenatal antibiotic exposure is associated with an increased risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in offspring born at term.

Methods: This population-based retrospective cohort study included everyone who delivered a live singleton-term infant in British Columbia, Canada between April 2000 and December 2014.

Let's Talk About Antibiotics: a randomised trial of two interventions to reduce antibiotic misuse.

Background: Children with acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) receive ≈11.4 million unnecessary antibiotic prescriptions annually. A noted contributor is inadequate parent-clinician communication, however, efforts to reduce overprescribing have only indirectly targeted communication or been impractical.

Autism Risk and Perinatal Antibiotic Use.

Objectives: Antibiotics are commonly administered during labor and delivery, and research has suggested that fetal exposure to antibiotics can increase risk for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We assessed whether antibiotic exposure during labor and delivery increased the risk of ASD in the offspring.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included everyone who delivered a live singleton-term infant in British Columbia, Canada, between April 1, 2000, and December 31, 2014.

Phylogenomic structure and speciation in an emerging model: the Sphagnum magellanicum complex (Bryophyta).

Sphagnum magellanicum is one of two Sphagnum species for which a reference-quality genome exists to facilitate research in ecological genomics. Phylogenetic and comparative genomic analyses were conducted based on resequencing data from 48 samples and RADseq analyses based on 187 samples. We report herein that there are four clades/species within the S.
