Student Evaluations Of Interprofessional Simulation, Rebecca Jensen, Deborah Poling
Student Evaluations Of Interprofessional Simulation, Rebecca Jensen, Deborah Poling
Rebecca S Jensen
Statement of problem While the 2010 report “The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health” proposes that nurses work collaboratively with other health care professionals, relatively little has been published on the use of simulation to achieve this goal in nursing and other disciplines. Student ratings of and interprofessional simulation and its effect on collaboration with other disciplines will provide valuable information on ways to improve interprofessional simulations.
Hypotheses
- Students’ self-ratings of confidence for patient care will improve from beginning to end of the simulation.
- Students’ self-rating of collaborative learning will improve from beginning to end of the simulation.
- Students …
Dietary Fibre On Cell Proliferation In Large Bowel Mucosal Crypts Near Or Away From Lymphoid Nodules And On Mineral Bioavailability, Ivan Cameron, W. Hardman, D. Heitman, J. Carter
Dietary Fibre On Cell Proliferation In Large Bowel Mucosal Crypts Near Or Away From Lymphoid Nodules And On Mineral Bioavailability, Ivan Cameron, W. Hardman, D. Heitman, J. Carter
Elaine Hardman Ph.D.
The effect of consumption for 24 weeks of different amounts (0%, 5% or 10% w/w) of fermentable (pectin and guar gum) or nonfermentable (cellulose and lignin) dietary fibres on cell proliferation and other parameters in large bowel mucosal crypts was studied in rats. In all 12 dietary groups, the crypts located over the distal aggregate of lymphoid nodules (ALN) had more colchicine arrested metaphase figures per midaxial crypt section (MC) and a longer crypt column height than crypts located three to four cm away from this ALN. These differences are attributed to the tropic in¯uence of nodular cells in the …

Department of Internal Medicine, Transplant Research Program, University of California, Davis Medical Center, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA. jdwu@ucdavis.edu The balance of redox is pivotal for normal function and integrity of tissues. Ischemic insults occur as results of a variety of conditions, leading to an accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and an imbalanced redox status in the tissues. The oxidant stress may activate signaling mechanisms provoking more toxic events, and eventually cause tissue damage. Therefore, …
