The clarification of the concept of colostomy nursing care in ostomy care centers: A concept analysis through Walker and Avant's method.

Background: Specialist nurses need to have an accurate understanding of colostomy care-related concepts to provide care. Although patients with different types of ostomy have different types of needs, terms such as ostomy care, colostomy care, and ileostomy nursing are interchangeably used. Moreover, there are limited concept analysis studies into the concept of colostomy nursing care (CNC) in ostomy care centers (OCCs).

The barriers and facilitators to nursing care for patients with permanent colostomy in outpatient centers: A qualitative study.

Background: Ostomy care nurses are responsible for the management of patients with colostomy from the time of diagnosis. Currently, most ostomy care services are provided in outpatient ostomy care centers in order to reduce patients' hospital stay and reduce hospitalization-related costs. Many different factors can affect colostomy nursing care provision in these centers.

Effect of Tween Type Non-Ionic Detergent on the Activity of Lipase of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative and rod-shaped bacterium. It can use a variety of carbon sources and grow in different culture media. Its versatile extracellular enzymes give it the ability to grow on complex carbon sources.

Plasticized starch-based biocomposites containing modified rice straw fillers with thermoplastic, thermoset-like and thermoset chemical structures.

In this work, rice straw (RS) as an abundant biomass was applied to prepare some renewable thermoplastic materials by using soda-pulping and benzylation processes. The obtained RS products including untreated RS, RS pulp, benzylated RS pulp and pulping liquor as well as benzylated RS were incorporated into the thermoplastic starch through a twin-screw extrusion process to obtain all green composites. The successful thermoplasticization reaction of RS products was confirmed by spectroscopy results and morphological observations.

The Prophylactic and Therapeutic Effects of Saffron Extract and Crocin on Ethanol Withdrawal Syndrome in Mice.

Objectives: Ethanol withdrawal following its chronic use is a serious outcome and challenging to treatment. The chronic use of ethanol induces a progressive neuroplasticity in different reigns of brain. In this study we evaluated the effects of aqueous extract of L.
