Assessing Public Opinions of Sexual Advance Directives Among Older Adults With Dementia.

This study used a mixed-method research design to examine public attitudes toward sexual advance directives (SADs), a theoretical legal document intended to protect the sexual rights of individuals across the lifespan. Respondents ( = 537) largely indicated that SADs should exist (65.4%) to preserve autonomy and protect resident rights, but they would not sign one right now (60.

Development of a mobile training app to assist radiographers' diagnostic assessments.

The current study reduced the time lag between performing a diagnostic assessment and identifying a critical finding in CT and MRI exams through improving radiographers' abilities to identify those critical findings. Radiographers' diagnostic assessments in CT and MRI exams were used to develop a mobile training application with the aim to improve radiographers' awareness of critical findings. The current research used data analytics to examine radiographers' interpretation of imaging studies from a privately owned medical group in Israel.

Single, Repeat, and Poly Intimate Partner Violence Victimization among Women at a College Campus: Extending Research Through the Inclusion of Technology-Facilitated Violence and Examining Key Social Determinants for Intimate Partner Violence Prevention.

This study examines intimate partner violence (IPV) victimization (i.e., technology-facilitated and in-person psychological, physical, and sexual) and polyvictimization, along with the role of social support and other factors in influencing these experiences.

Generalized Dentin Dysplasia in a Four-Year-old dog.

Dentin dysplasia is an autosomal-dominant genetic abnormality that occurs in humans and results in diffuse radiographic dental abnormalities and variable tooth discoloration due to an underlying defect in secondary dentinogenesis. This case report presents distinctive radiographic and histopathologic dental abnormalities in a dog that are consistent with generalized dentin dysplasia. These findings are similar to but not completely analogous to any specific clinical type of dentin dysplasia in humans.

Ovine Fetal and Placental Lesions and Cellular Tropism in Natural Rift Valley Fever Virus Infections.

Infection with (RVFV) causes abortion storms and a wide variety of outcomes for both ewes and fetuses. Sheep fetuses and placenta specimens were examined during the 2010-2011 River Valley fever (RVF) outbreak in South Africa. A total of 72 fetuses were studied of which 58 were confirmed positive for RVF.

Risk Markers for Physical Teen Dating Violence Perpetration: A Meta-Analysis.

Teen dating violence (TDV) is a common problem among adolescents and has been linked to various negative outcomes. This study used Dutton's nested ecological theory to examine risk markers for physical TDV perpetration and examine whether there are significant differences in the strength of risk markers between male and female adolescents. This meta-analysis included 37 studies yielding 126 unique effect sizes for risk markers for physical TDV perpetration in samples from the United States.
