Caregivers' perception of teenagers' dignity in end of life stages: A phenomenological study.

Maintaining patient dignity in a caregiving environment is one of the most important moral responsibilities for caregivers. Nonetheless, there are vulnerable groups, specifically teenagers, who in their final stages of life are prone to their dignity being threatened. Moreover, dignity is an abstract concept and there is no studies done on teenagers' dignity in the final stages of life available in Iran.

An appraisal of current service delivery and future models of care for young people with gender dysphoria.

The clinical needs of young people with gender dysphoria (GD) have outpaced the capacity of health services to provide appropriate care. The study aimed to explore the interface of Paediatric Endocrinology and young people with GD, detailing the clinical characteristics and the clinical care provided, in order to inform future service development. Medical records of all young people with GD (n=91, 59 (65%) birth-assigned females and 32 (35%) birth-assigned males) referred to Paediatric Endocrinology during 2011-2019 for puberty suppression were reviewed.

Dignity: The Cornerstone of Nursing Care Among Hospitalized Mothers of Infants in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

: One of the most important areas of nursing care delivery is "dignity." Because of the increase in hospitalized infants in neonatal intensive care units in recent years, this has led to an increased focus on "family care and maternal dignity." Given the importance of understanding the phenomenon of maternal dignity in order to improve cooperation in the care of their infants and promote family-centered care, this study aims to describe the lived experience of hospitalized mothers of infants within the context of dignity.

Selective Affimers Recognise the BCL-2 Family Proteins BCL-x and MCL-1 through Noncanonical Structural Motifs*.

The BCL-2 family is a challenging group of proteins to target selectively due to sequence and structural homologies across the family. Selective ligands for the BCL-2 family regulators of apoptosis are useful as probes to understand cell biology and apoptotic signalling pathways, and as starting points for inhibitor design. We have used phage display to isolate Affimer reagents (non-antibody-binding proteins based on a conserved scaffold) to identify ligands for MCL-1, BCL-x , BCL-2, BAK and BAX, then used multiple biophysical characterisation methods to probe the interactions.
