2007 Nebraska Population Report, David J. Drozd, Jerry Deichert Sep 2008

2007 Nebraska Population Report, David J. Drozd, Jerry Deichert

Past Publications

This report shows annual estimates of the population for Nebraska and its counties and cities. Demographic patterns and trends, including changes in the components of population change, are illustrated. As the passage of time takes us further from Census 2000 and closer to the 2010 Census, it is important to see how official estimates show the specific changes that have been occurring at both the state and local level.


Christian Narratives Of Forgiveness: An Examination Of Components Used By Christian Laypeople In The Process Of Forgiveness, Heath H. Fervida Sep 2008

Christian Narratives Of Forgiveness: An Examination Of Components Used By Christian Laypeople In The Process Of Forgiveness, Heath H. Fervida

Doctor of Psychology (PsyD)

There is rising interest in forgiveness within the social sciences; however, the religious roots of forgiveness are often overlooked. The primary aim of this research was to assess whether those of Christian faith have unique elements in their forgiveness process. Motives and mechanism of forgiveness were assessed in 100 Christian narratives of forgiveness and then considered in light of current process models. The results of this analysis show that Christians incorporate the main components of current process models; however, they also approach them with motives and mechanisms unique to the Christian faith. Their understanding of God and a relationship with …

醫學生抽血操作技能訓練與評估, 慈儀 簡, 育婷 陳, 小薇 毛, 福田 江 Sep 2008

醫學生抽血操作技能訓練與評估, 慈儀 簡, 育婷 陳, 小薇 毛, 福田 江

Journal of Medical Education

醫學教育的目標是在培養醫師能以人文關懷為基礎,專業技能為核心,重視醫療安全與品質。在臨床醫療專業訓練中,抽血是醫學生首次面對的侵入性醫療行為,亦是必備的基本技能;完整的抽血過程涵蓋知識面、技術面與態度面。而抽血是檢驗醫學部主要業務之一,為拓展跨科合作,本部特別與教學部合作,辦理醫牙系學生抽血技能訓練課程。訓練課程採小組教學方式,包含核心課程與選修課程;前者包括:(1)講授課程;(2)教師示範;(3)以假手及同學互抽的實際技能訓練;後者為(4)臨床門診實務訓練。本研究以參與核心訓練課程之162名醫牙學系學生及參與門診實務訓練之55名學生為對象,分析其課程評估結果;課程評估包含學生對講授課程內容之滿意度評估(包括授課內容、口語表達、教材及整體性),以及指導老師針對學生臨床門診實際操作之技能評估。學生針對講授課程之評估結果發現,在12個不同領域之基本訓練課程中,本抽血課程各項滿意度及整體滿意度均排名第二。此外,針對55名參與門診抽血實務訓練之學生,制定15項技能評核內容與三項評估標準(通過、指正後通過以及不通過),每位學生分別負責10位病人。研究結果發現,針對15項分別評估,其各項評估內容之首次通過率平均為91.52%(54.55%-100%);其中,「正確洗手」與「皮膚消毒完整」之首次通過率為100%,而「正確綁上止血帶、選擇適當抽血部位」首次通過率僅54.55%;不過經過老師提出修正建議後,就學生之第二位病人之操作訓練再度評估,15項評估內容所有學生全部通過。本研究結果顯示,以小組教學方式進行抽血技能訓練,配合客觀結構性臨床能力測驗(Objective Structured Clinical Examination, OSCE),證實醫學生之抽血技能在良好規劃下,可依標準化訓練流程,達成完善的技能品管。

高擬真情境模擬在住院醫師急重症訓練的應用:台大醫院的經驗, 志偉 楊, 世基 古, 詩力 蔡, 啟娟 葉, 惠明 馬, 上淳 張

Journal of Medical Education

Much emphasis has been placed on patient safety since the publication of several studies reporting on the incidence of medical errors. In the 1999 Institute of Medicine's report <||>To err is human: Building a Safer Health System<||>, the magnitude of medical errors was pointed out, and a more efficient and safer education model including the use of simulation was highly recommended. In 2007, a critical care training course using high-fidelity simulation for the junior residents of internal medicine before their clinical practice in an intensive care unit was designed at National Taiwan University Hospital. Trainees were assessed by standardized written …

Complete Resolution Of Gastric Amyloidosis After Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation., Dinu Cherian, Kristin Braun, Neal Flomenberg, Juan P. Palazzo, David Kastenberg

Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology Faculty Papers

A 48-year-old female with multiple myeloma (MM) and amyloidosis presented with massive upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding one week after autologous stem cell transplantation (autologous-SCT). Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) demonstrated necrotic, purple, pigmented, friable lesions throughout the stomach (Figure 1a), along with a bleeding ulcer in the cardia (Figure 1b, Video 1) which was successfully treated with epinephrine (1:10,000) injections. Biopsies demonstrated nodular amyloid deposition (Figures 2) which was Congo red positive. The patient had no further hematemesis and was discharged home 4 days later. Ten months after autologous-SCT, EGD revealed a normal stomach (Figure 3, Video 2) with …

African Americans were screened, recruited and randomly assigned to the behavioral intervention or usual care. Clinic-based, individually tailored counseling was delivered to intervention women. The outcome measures were number of reisks reported postpartum and reduction of these risks between baseline and postpartum.

Prostitutes, Prodigals And The Story Of God's Embrace, Steve Sherwood Sep 2008

Prostitutes, Prodigals And The Story Of God's Embrace, Steve Sherwood

Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology

Excerpt: "This book has been stewing inside of me for a long time. When I was sixteen years old, I sat in a living room in Round Rock, Texas at a Young Life meeting and heard a college kid tell the story of Hosea and Gomer and then say, "God loves us like that." I'd never heard anything like that and I now know that Hosea was not a story regularly told in Young Life. I have no idea why my Young Life leader chose it. Regardless, that image has stuck in my head for almost thirty years.

Down-Regulation Of Dnmt3b In Pc3 Cells Effects Locus-Specific Dna Methylation, And Represses Cellular Growth And Migration., Ahmed Yaqinuddin, Sohail A. Qureshi, Romena Qazi, Farhat Abbas Sep 2008

Down-Regulation Of Dnmt3b In Pc3 Cells Effects Locus-Specific Dna Methylation, And Represses Cellular Growth And Migration., Ahmed Yaqinuddin, Sohail A. Qureshi, Romena Qazi, Farhat Abbas

Section of Urology

BACKGROUND:

Aberrations in DNA methylation patterns promote changes in gene expression patterns and are invariably associated with neoplasia. DNA methylation is carried out and maintained by several DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) among which DNMT1 functions as a maintenance methylase while DNMT3a and 3b serve as de novo enzymes. Although DNMT3b has been shown to preferentially target the methylationof DNA sequences residing in pericentric heterochromatin whether it is involved in gene specific methylation remains an open question. To address this issue, we have silenced the expression of DNMT3b in the prostate-derived PC3 cells through RNA interference and subsequently studied the accompanied cellular …


Designing Transparency: The 9/11 Commission And Institutional Form, Mark Fenster Sep 2008

Designing Transparency: The 9/11 Commission And Institutional Form, Mark Fenster

Washington and Lee Law Review

Surpassing the low expectations established by previous investigatory commissions and overcoming the political and legal obstacles created by the Bush administration's opposition to its creation, the 9/11 Commission accomplished what appeared to be the impossible: an authoritative investigation, a widely-read final report, and direct influence on significant legislation. This Article argues that the 9/11 Commission represents an important institutional model for encouraging orforcing the Executive Branch to disclose information about an especially significant and controversial past event or future decision. It suggests that Congress or the President consider establishing such commissions when information held by the Executive Branch can help …
