Development and psychometric evaluation of the Test of Practical Judgment alternate form (Form B).

The Test of Practical Judgment (TOP-J) is increasingly used by neuropsychologists to measure everyday judgment ability in older adulthood. In the present study, we developed an alternate TOP-J Form B, which may be used to reduce practice effects for repeat assessment situations or in place of the original Form A. In developing the measure, special attention was given to limiting cultural bias and making items similar in content and difficulty to Form A.

Prevention of vertical transmission of HIV in international migrant women: Current scenario and challenges.

Preventing vertical transmission of HIV is a challenge for all countries worldwide. The permanent construction of global societies with a variable degree of international migrant population has made it more complex. Health policies, programs, and actions for preventing vertical transmission of HIV in pregnant migrants demand an intercultural perspective, where social, cultural, and gender dimen sions associated with the infection are addressed.

Influence of Ternary Emulsifier Mixtures on Oxidative Stability of Nanoemulsions Based on Avocado Oil.

The aim of this work was to study the effect of two emulsifiers (M: SL-soy lecithin, Tw80-Tween 80 and CasCa-calcium caseinate and M: SL-soy lecithin, Tw80-Tween 80 and SE-sucrose esters) on the oxidative stability of avocado oil-based nanoemulsions. Oil-in-water nanoemulsions were prepared using 3.6% / of two emulsifier mixtures, which were optimized by mixture experimental design in order to minimize particle size (PS) and polydispersity index (PdI).
