Unlicensed assistive personnel's involvement in delivering care to persons with or at risk of delirium: a scoping review protocol.

Objective: The objective of this review is to describe the nature and extent of the literature regarding unlicensed assistive personnel's involvement in delivering care to persons with or at risk of delirium.

Introduction: Initiatives that promote the involvement of unlicensed assistive personnel in providing additional supervision and care to persons with or at risk of delirium have been developed. Because no standardized approach guides unlicensed assistive personnel's involvement with persons with or at risk of delirium, and because inconsistent training and expectations may pose a threat to the safety and quality of care, it is essential to clarify the role of unlicensed assistive personnel in caring for persons with or at risk of delirium.

Nursing students' decision-making regarding postpartum hemorrhage: An exploration using the recognition-primed decision model.

Aim: To explore the knowledge content and structure of nursing students' decision-making in a high-stake clinical situation of postpartum hemorrhage using the Recognition-Primed Decision Model.

Background: According to research on clinical judgment, a nurse's expectations for a patient situation are central to the clinical decision-making process. However, little research has addressed the expectation concept and its relationship with the nurse's knowledge.

Improving the recognition and management of hemorrhage: A scoping review of nursing and midwifery education.

Background: Hemorrhage is a frequent complication that nurses and midwives must recognize and manage to avoid life-threatening consequences for patients. There is currently no synthesis of evidence on educational interventions in nursing and midwifery regarding hemorrhage, thus limiting the definition of best practices.

Objective: To map the literature on nursing and midwifery education regarding the recognition and management of hemorrhage.

Neurodevelopmental findings in children 20-30 months of age with postnatal Zika infection at 1-12 months of age, Colombia, September-November 2017.

Background: Zika virus (ZIKV) infection during pregnancy can cause infant brain and eye abnormalities and has been associated with adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes in exposed infants. Evidence is limited on ZIKV's effects on children infected postnatally within the first year of life.

Objective: To determine whether any adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes occurred in early childhood for children infected postnatally with ZIKV during infancy, given the neurotoxicity of ZIKV infection and the rapid brain development that occurs in infancy and early childhood.

Uso Del Condón en Adolescentes Nahuas, un Modelo Explicativo.

En México, la población indígena supera los siete millones de habitantes, en Puebla el grupo más representativo es el Náhuatl. Sin embargo, las condiciones de vida, salud, educación y transporte son precarias para esta población. En los adolescentes, las responsabilidades como el matrimonio, la familia y los compromisos ante la comunidad, favorecen conductas de riesgo sexual que dificultan su desarrollo económico, social y reproductivo.

Comparative seroprevalence of Leptospira interrogans in Colombian mammals along a climatic gradient.

Leptospirosis is a widespread zoonotic disease with well-established impacts on human health in tropical and subtropical regions. Although Leptospira spp. are known to readily infect many wildlife species, the understanding of interspecies and climatic variability in patterns of infection in Neotropical mammals is limited.

Use of Sexual Material Online and At-Risk Sexual Behavior Regarding HIV/AIDS among College Students.

Use of sexual material online (USMO) by young people has been connected with at-risk sexual behavior for HIV/AIDS. Media Richness and Social Cognitive theories propose that rich media offer more information with interactive and audible visual content, which could have a significant impact on people's thinking and behavior. The objective was to determine whether USMO presented by rich media has an influence on at-risk sexual behavior for HIV/AIDS.

Evaluation of interferon-gamma release assays in the diagnosis of recent tuberculosis infection in health care workers.

Background: Health care workers (HCWs) are a group at risk of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI). The aims of this study were to determine IFN-gamma response by QuantiFERON-TB GOLD In Tube (QFN-G-IT) and T-SPOT.TB in HCWs, comparing the results with tuberculin skin test (TST); and to analyze the capacity of IFN-gamma tests to detect recent versus remote LTBI with a prolonged stimulation test (PST).

Tumoral prostate shows different expression pattern of somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2) and phosphotyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 (PTPN6) according to tumor progression.

Prostate proliferation is dependent of androgens and many peptide hormones. Recent reports suggest that SSTR2 and SHP-1 were two fundamental components on antiproliferative effect of somatostatin. Many studies on SHP-1 revealed that the expression of this protein was diminished or abolished in several of the cancer cell lines and tissues examined.

[Prevalence of latex-related sensitization in health care workers].

Background And Objective: Latex exposure at work has been related to sensitization in health care workers. The aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence of this sensitization in health care workers and its risk factors.

Patients And Method: The occupation, prevalence of latex-related symptoms and sensitization was determined in a sample of health care workers by questionnaire and skin testing.
