Syntheses And Antimicrobial Activities Of Some 4-Aza-Sitostane Derivatives, Hassan Y. Aboul-Enein

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Research into the chemical and pharmacological properties of aza­steroids has become of interest because of their potential value as pharmacodynamic and chemotherapeutic agents. A nitrogen atom, for example, would be able to interact, unlike carbon, with a variety of sites in enzymes by means of ionic-ionic, ionic-dipole, dipole-dipole and hydrogen.bonds. Azasteroids having a nitrogen, atom might be adsorbed more strongly or in a different orientation to a given enzyme, and also may produce.a different biologic effect with a new spectrum of biological activities. The pharmacological.activities of a number of synthetic azasteroids, have been reported.

This investigation is concerned with the …

Relationship Between Sleep Deprivation And Postpartum Depression, Janet Wagner

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Postpartum depression was thought to be an important component of maternity blues and was the factor explored in this study. Sleep was hypothesized as a factor affecting either the occurrence or severity of postpartum depression. Hence, the purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between sleep deprivation and postpartum depression.

Twenty patients were interviewed one to three weeks prior to their expected dates of delivery. The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory Depression scale was administered during the interview and each patient kept a record of her hours of sleep during the following week. Each patient again kept a record …

Effect On Quality Nursing Care When Nurses Assume Selected Unique Nursing Functions, Gail True, Chieko Honda, Lynn Gates Keegan, Ann Marsa, Ila J. Mobley, Esther Oldham, Betty Robertson, Annette M. Ross, Beverly Steele

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purposes of this study were (1) to reduce the gap in nursing between theory and practice by applying to nursing practice selected nursing theory as identified in literature, and (2) to determine the quality of nursing care given when nurses carried out their unique functions in seven selected areas.

The study was conducted in a university hospital over a period of eight weeks on two, twenty-six-bed general surgical units, one experimental and one control. The nurses on the experimental unit were allowed to function independently in seven chosen areas: (1) frequency of taking and recording temperature, pulse, respiration, and …

Primiparae's Identification Of Critical Incidents During First Postpartum Month And Their Evaluations Of Subsequent Nursing Intervention, Jane M. Erwin

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purpose of this exploratory study was to investigate (1) what physical care critical incidents primiparae experience while providing mother-infant care during the first postpartum month and (2) what evaluations mothers give to nursing intervention applied to such critical incidents.

Six mothers who met the criteria of selection were visited four or five times. The first visit was made in the hospital to obtain background information of the mother's preparation for maternal and infant care. The second through the fourth visits were made in the home in order to record physical care critical incidents that they ex perienced while caring …

The Effect Of Verbal Reinforcement On The Self-References Of Psychiatric Patients Who Are Characterized By A High Number Of Negative Self-References, Earl William Rakestraw Ii

Electronic Theses & Dissertations

The effect of positive verbal reinforcement on the verbal self-references of hospitalized psychiatric patients was studied. Eighteen patients, characterized by a high production rate of negative, verbal self-references, were matched on the following variables: age, length of hospitalization, medication, psychotherapy participation, intelligence quotient, sex, and adjustment score discrepancy obtained on a Q-sort test. After the subjects were given the pre-experimental Q-sorts and matched on the other variables, nine were randomly assigned to the experimental group and nine to the control group. All of the subjects were then administered six individual interviews in which they responded to 30 questions and statements …

A Guide To 'Under The Volcano', Gladys Marie Andersen

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Readers both before and after the publication of Malcolm Lowry's Under the Volcano frequently misunderstood Lowry's Method and consequently oversimplified His Beaning, Judging the novel to be over- written and carelessly constructed, they suggested cute or revisions. close reading, however, vindicates teary, who Insisted that extreme care had gone into his multi-leveled hovel and that any substantial deletions or modifications would bare the overall plan of his work.

An Investigation Of The Release Of 5-Fluorouracil From Ointment Bases, Vance Leroy Grainger

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

During the several years in which this therapy has been developed and evaluated, as standard dermatological preparation has not been available. The objective of the present work was to study the release of 5-FU from various ointment bases and to attempt to determine the type of base which would release the compound most satisfactorily.

The methods chosen were designed to determine the release and penetration of 5-FU both by in vitro and in vivo methods. A modified agar plate method was chosen as the in vitro test for measuring release and subsequent diffusion into the agar. The penetration of the …

A Comparison Of The Fluidized Bed Drying Technique With Conventional Methods Of Drying Tablet Granulations, Kit Michael Mills

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Drying procedures, like other important unit operations in pharmacy, have received little attention in pharmaceutical literature. Within recent years, however, growing interest in these pharmaceutical engineering areas has become apparent.

Fluidization operations, although relatively unexplored in pharmacy, have been firmly established on a broad scale in other industries. Fluidization may be defined as the suspension and agitation of a bed of particulate solids by a vertically rising stream of gas. Each suspended particle is surrounded by the gas. This relative velocity of the gas and solid particles is high, although the gas velocity itself is relatively low. Heat is transferred …

The Preparation Of Coordination Compounds Of Rhodium (Iii) And Glutamic Acid And Substituted Glutamic Acids, Herman William Kalberer

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The father of coordination chemistry was Alfred Werner (1866- 1919). Werner's theory was largely responsible for the renewed interest in, and rapid growth of, inorganic chemistry around the turn of the century. He postulated that there were two types of valence, primary and secondary, which correspond, in modern terminology, to oxidation state and coordination number. The primary valences must be either negative ions, neutral molecules or, occasionally even, positive ions (11). He also postulated that the secondary valences are directed in space about the central ion, not only in the solid state, but also when the complex is in solution. …
