There are enough worthwhile videos available today so that a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator could literally teach an entire class series using only videos and feedback discussion. In this column, the author explores considerations in choosing videos for adult learners in Lamaze birth classes. Some things to consider when using videos should be the adult learner's attention span, whether the video increases fear of birth or empowers the learner, and if the video is appropriate for the culture of the class participants. Finally, the author provides a list of some of the many wonderful videos available to Lamaze birth educators.

Understanding how membrane nanoscale organization controls transmembrane receptors signaling activity remains a challenge. We studied interferon-γ receptor (IFN-γR) signaling in fibroblasts from homozygous patients with a T168N mutation in IFNGR2. By adding a neo-N-glycan on IFN-γR2 subunit, this mutation blocks IFN-γ activity by unknown mechanisms.

Galectin-3 drives glycosphingolipid-dependent biogenesis of clathrin-independent carriers.

Several cell surface molecules including signalling receptors are internalized by clathrin-independent endocytosis. How this process is initiated, how cargo proteins are sorted and membranes are bent remains unknown. Here, we found that a carbohydrate-binding protein, galectin-3 (Gal3), triggered the glycosphingolipid (GSL)-dependent biogenesis of a morphologically distinct class of endocytic structures, termed clathrin-independent carriers (CLICs).

The number of new immigrant female spouses, particularly from Vietnam, continues to increase steadily in Taiwan. However, these women are nearly all young and become pregnant early, while still in an immature psychosomatic status. Furthermore, various life adaptations are stacked against their maintaining good personal health or providing good healthcare to their babies.

Article Synopsis
  • * The research involved four groups of women in labor, where those using the video-based method showed better posttest scores for knowledge and management of the labor process than control groups; however, attitude scores did not significantly differ among the groups.
  • * Findings indicate that higher prenatal knowledge correlates positively with better performance during and after labor, suggesting that combining video-based Lamaze with traditional guidelines could be an effective approach to enhance maternal preparation for childbirth.
