Aims and objectives. This article aimed to explore the factors relating to nurses themselves that influence the delivery of preoperative patient education in everyday surgical clinical contexts at one large general adult ...
Aim. This paper reports on a study exploring the experiences of nurses undertaking distance education (DE) programmes.
Background. While DE has many advantages in terms of the flexibility, autonomy and freedom that ...
This article concerns the meanings that a sample of nurse teachers ascribed to
the concepts of reflection and reflective practice as aspects of an undergraduate nursing
curriculum. It represents one of the major findings ...
Sequencing by hybridisation is an effective method for obtaining large amounts of
DNA sequence information at low cost. The efficiency of SBH depends on
the design of the probe library to provide the maximum information ...
In this paper, we explore the discourses on sexuality that a sample of parents drew upon when they talked about teenage sexual self-presentation and conduct. The sample consisted of 43 parents (32 mothers and 11 fathers) ...
Inadequate recovery from short-term, high-intensity bouts of exercise can be a limiting factor to optimal sporting performance [1]. Previous research investigating recovery from intense exercise using various intervention ...
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is the most common life-limiting genetic disease in Caucasians. [1] Progressive respiratory and gastro intestinal disease are the predominant clinical manifestations of the disease. As a consequence ...
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is the most common life-limiting genetic disease in caucasians.
Skeletal muscle weakness and exercise intolerance is prevalent in people with cystic fibrosis. Although higher levels of fitness have ...
In this article, a critique of cancer nursing literature on the issue of sexuality is presented, with particular reference to literature on cancers common to women. The paper begins with an account of two competing ...
Short linear motifs in proteins (typically 3–12 residues in length) play key roles in protein–protein interactions by frequently binding specifically to peptide binding domains within interacting proteins. Their tendency ...
The ability of docking to predict angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory dipeptide sequences was assessed using AutoDock Vina. All potential dipeptides and phospho-dipeptides were docked and scored. Peptide intestinal ...
Introduction: Problem alcohol use is common and associated with considerable adverse health and social outcomes among patients who attend GPs in Ireland and other European countries for opioid substitution treatment. This ...
Background: Short linear protein motifs are attracting increasing attention as functionally independent sites, typically 3-10 amino acids in length that are enriched in disordered regions of proteins. Multiple methods have ...

Intracellular juxtamembrane regions of transmembrane proteins play pivotal roles in cell signalling, mediated by protein-protein interactions. Disordered protein regions, and short conserved motifs within them, are emerging ...
This is the protocol for a review and there is no abstract. The objectives are as follows:To determine the effectiveness of psychosocial interventions targeting problem alcohol use versus other treatments in illicit drug users.
Background: Problem alcohol use is common among illicit drug users and is associated with adverse health outcomes. It is also an important factor in poor prognosis among drug users with hepatitis C virus (HCV) as it impacts ...

A range of disciplines, including those in health sciences, have witnessed an increasing emphasis on the discourse of 'evidence-based' practice in professional learning settings, which has a tendency to be viewed as ...
Since its introduction in the last decade, massive parallel sequencing, or "next-generation sequencing", has revolutionized our access to genomic information, providing accurate data with increasingly higher yields and ...
Equine navicular syndrome (ENS) is a common ailment
responsible for up to one-third of all chronic forelimb
lameness. The current presentation, based on literature
reviews and veterinary and radiology opinions, offers ...
