Taking Control of Your Health: Self-Measured Blood Pressure Program in Yankton, South Dakota.

Background: Identification and management of hypertension is one of the most common problems for primary care providers. Rural settings have increased rates of hypertension due to a variety of factors including access to care, socioeconomic factors, and restricted strategies to identify hypertension outside of the clinic setting.

Objective: Effective communication is essential in delivering high-quality patient care, and in recent years, resident education has expanded to focus on nontechnical skills and communication training. The "Everything DiSC" model is a communication inventory tool used to help employers and employees gain insight into how an individual may communicate within a team and how others may perceive similarities and differences in communication styles, comprising of Dominance (D), Influence (i), Steadiness (S), and Conscientiousness (C).

Department of Biological Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Purpose: Homoarginine (hArg) is an arginine metabolite that has been known for years, but its physiological role in the body remains poorly understood. For instance, it is well known that high hArg concentrations in the blood are protective against several disease states, yet the mechanisms behind these health benefits are unclear. This review compiles what is known about hArg, namely its synthetic pathways, its role in different diseases and conditions, and its proposed mechanisms of action in humans and experimental animals.
