A satisfaction survey on distance education: a model for educating nurses in the cognitive treatment of patients with addictive disorders.

Nurses need to be educated and trained in the assessment and treatment of substance abuse, because 25% to 50% of their patients struggle with this problem. Cognitive therapy takes a problem-solving approach and can be used independently, or in conjunction with, psychopharmacological or 12-step programs. Course participants who made use of the distant education format found the information they learned helpful in their current practice.

Phospholipid metabolism of stimulated lymphocytes. Comparison of the activation of acyl-CoA:lysolecithin acyltransferase with the binding of concanavalin A to thymocytes.

Calf thymocytes were isolated and incubated with concanavalin A. The effect of the mitogen on the enzyme activity of membrane-bound lysolecithin acyltransferase (acyl-CoA:1-acylglycero-3-phosphorylcholine-O-acyltransferase, EC 2.3.1.23) was determined as also the binding of 125I-labelled concanavalin A to intact cells and isolated membranes. The lysolecithin acyltransferase was found to be activated three times in microsomal membranes. The activation occurred directly after binding of concanavalin A and was temperature independent, since similar activities were found in cells treated with concanavalin A at 0 and 37 degrees C. The acyltransferase activation using increasing concentrations of concanavalin A revealed a different behaviour, as compared to the binding of concanavalin A. While the binding of concanavalin A to intact cells expressed a normal hyperbolic saturation function the activation process of the acyltransferase described a sigmoidal relationship. Correspondingly, the interaction coefficients for both functions were different (Sips coefficient for binding = 1.0 and Hill coefficient of the enzyme activation = 1.8). These results indicate that the acyltransferase activation is due to a cooperative interaction between the ligand-receptor complex and the enzyme.

Cognitive therapy for the suicidal patient: a case study.

TOPIC: The use of cognitive therapy to treat a suicidal patient. PURPOSE: To demonstrate through the use of a case study, the cognitive therapy method in treating a suicidal patient. SOURCE: The author's own clinical work. CONCLUSION: Suicidal people often demonstrate perfectionism, social sensitivity, difficulty problem solving, and hopelessness. Cognitive therapy addresses these problems by helping patients plan activities, track destructive thinking and its impact on feelings and behaviors, and substitute constructive thinking, thus decreasing hopelessness.
