Background: Civility is an attitude of mutual respect and tolerance for differences that influences the professionalism a nurse. However, there rise in incivility nursing, including aggressive behavior, lack discipline, failure to follow rules. Nursing education practice are critical promoting civil behavior through effective communication, conflict management, resolution.Purpose: To determine ...

Selfish genetic elements that distort Mendelian segregation to favor their own transmission are common in eukaryotic genomes [1,2]. Segregation distortion can reduce whole organism fitness, resulting in strong counter selection for genes that suppress distorters. Such intragenomic conflicts have the potential to drive recurrent bouts of antagonistic co-evolution [3]. Theory predicts that geneti...

In zebrafish, Hedgehog-induced Engrailed expression defines a muscle fibre population that includes both slow and fast fibre types and exhibits an organisational role on myotome and surrounding tissues, such as motoneurons and lateral line. This Engrailed-positive population is restricted in the myotome to a central domain. To understand how this population is established, we have analysed the ...

This article examines the inflectional system of adjectives in Chaucer, Gower and Hoccleve, with particular reference to ‘high’ ‘sly’. Since these poets were careful metrists, scansion allows us determine syllabic status their verse. While Chaucer Gower, grammatical for inflection monosyllabic (final - e weak plural adjectives) is generally observed, there good evidence show that was breaking d...

Volume 29, Number 4, July/August 1997 better index of acceptability than does the former, they are constrained by the bias of selecting only those women willing to try the device. Selectivity, small sample size and data collection restrictions in previous research have inhibited attempts to differentiate among women unwilling to try the device, those willing to do so and those using the female ...

likely than nonusers to engage in risky sexual behavior and that they are less likely than nonusers to rely on condoms. In some studies, condom use has been treated as one component of a sexual-risk index, which is then related to substance use. In other research, condom use has been treated as a separate independent variable, which is then related to substance use directly. In this article, we...

The nuclei of eukaryotic cells can be thought of as a library containing the molecular ‘‘recipes,’’ or genes, for constructing the proteins and ribonucleic acid molecules used by a cell. Within the library, genes are grouped together into ‘‘books,’’ known as chromosomes, which consist of linear strands of DNA wrapped around specialized DNA-interacting proteins. Human body cells have 46 chromoso...
