The prevalence of self reported psychosexual problems in 265 men and 160 women who attended the genitourinary clinic at this hospital was assessed. Twenty-six (10.6%) men and 13 (9.0%) women had sexual problems either as an individual or within their regular relationship. The highest prevalence of problems was in married or cohabiting women and men, both homosexual and heterosexual, over 30.

BACKGROUND The negative effects of in-person workplace bullying (WB) are well established. Less is known about cyber-bullying (CB), in which negative behaviours are mediated by technology. Drawing on the conservation of resources theory, the current research examined how individual and organisational factors were related to WB and CB at two time points three months apart. METHODS Data were co...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to assess whether recent graduates of the Ohio State University's Occupational Therapy division are applying information-seeking skills they learned as undergraduates, and to seek their advice on ways to improve information-literacy instruction for current and future occupational therapy students. METHOD A survey was sent to a sample of graduates from 1...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to examine the benefits of a summer handwriting instruction course offered to community elementary-age students. METHODS Twenty-six students participated in the study and attended instruction for 1 hour per day for 2 weeks. Pre- and posttesting with the Evaluation Tool of Children's Handwriting (ETCH) were conducted. Parents were also asked to rate thei...

Kristin, a 38-year-old female with breast cancer, was scheduled to begin treatment a week after receiving her diagnosis. Although she was in a four-year-long relationship, she had never thought about having kids. Kristin was told that embryo banking (IVF) was the best option for fertility preservation, and she had to decide immediately if she wanted biological children in order to start an egg-...

A series of twenty six arylpiperazine and aminoalkanol derivatives of 4-azatricyclo[5.2.2.0(2,6)]undecane-3,5,8-trione have been prepared. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity and anti-HIV-1 activity in MT-4 cells.

Fe–N–C electrocatalysts have been intensively studied due to their extraordinary catalytic activity toward oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Here we prepare a electrocatalyst through cost-effective and nontoxic precursors of 2,6-diaminopyridine (DAP) FeCl3, where iron ions react with DAP formed Fe-Nx species first, followed by polymerization pyrolysis. X-ray diffraction patterns display no obvio...

background: mutations of gjb2 gene encoding connexion 26 are the most common cause of hearing loss in many popula­tions. a very wide spectrum of gjb2 gene mutations associated with hearing loss have been detected but pathogenic role has been tested only for a part of them. in this study, we have provided genetic evidence on the pathogenicity of our previ­ously reported novel gjb2 allelic varian...
