PURPOSE: While the effective acquisition of technical skills is essential for excellent paediatric care, little is known about how technical skills are learned in the paediatric setting. This study sought to describe and theorise the variables influencing technical skills acquisition in a tertiary care neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) inpatient setting. METHODOLOGY: Using non-participant field methodology, paediatric residents and their teachers (nurses, respiratory therapists, neonatal staff and fellows) were observed at various times in the NICU for 8 weeks. Thirteen semistructured interviews with these teachers and learners and 1 focus group of additional learners were conducted and used to triangulate …

Visual messages provide society with models for behavior, including what to eat and which gender does domestic and professional cooking. Review and comparison of advertising images from two countries highlight differences in culture and gender roles which otherwise seem natural and mainly go unnoticed. In this study images from 1,250 advertisements found in 30 German and American culinary magazines were reviewed for food and gender characteristics. Among the findings, German publications offered more fruit/vegetable and juice/water/coffee/tea ads whereas U.S. periodicals contained more pasta/bread/rice/flour and breakfast fare ads. Men were more often depicted as professional chefs than women across both countries. …

Child low-level lead (Pb) exposure is an unresolved public health problem and an unaddressed child health disparity. Particularly in cases of low-level exposure, source removal can be impossible to accomplish, and the only practical strategy for reducing risk may be primary prevention. Genetic biomarkers of increased neurotoxic risk could help to identify small subgroups of children for early intervention. Previous studies have suggested that, by way of a distinct mechanism, d-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase single nucleotide polymorphism 2 (ALAD2) and/or peptide transporter 2*2 haplotype (hPEPT2*2) increase Pb blood burden in children. Studies have not yet examined whether sex mediates the effects …
