When research involves your receptionist. A checklist for GPs and staff.

General practitioners have a key role in health care. Research must continue in general practice to maintain and improve this role. Whenever research involves receptionists directly in data collection, general practitioners should understand fully the nature of the research and the workload it is likely to impose. All members of the staff can be involved in deciding whether to participate. Once your assistance is enlisted, an explicit charter of rights and responsibilities ought to ensure a secure basis for a successful collaboration.

Geisinger checklist speeds transfer of heart attack patients.

In cardiology, there is a saying that "time is muscle." The longer it takes to reopen a heart attack patient's blocked artery, the more damage is done to the heart muscle. Cardiologists and emergency department physicians at Geisinger Medical Center are working together to shorten the time that it takes for patients to receive angioplasty, thus saving more heart muscle.

Cestode parasites in Potamotrygon motoro (Natterer) (Chondrichthyes: Potamotrygonidae) from southwestern Brazil, including Rhinebothroides mclennanae n. sp. (Tetraphyllidea: Phyllobothriidae), and a revised host-parasite checklist for helminths inhabiting neotropical freshwater stingrays.

Specimens of 5 species of cestodes were collected in 6 specimens of the freshwater stingray species Potamotrygon motoro (Natterer), collected in the vicinity of Corumba, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. Acanthobothrium regoi, Potamotrygonocestus orinocoensis, Rhinebothroides venezuelensis, and Rhinebothrium paratrygoni are reported from P. motoro and from southwestern Brazil for the first time. Rhinebothroides mclennanae n. sp. appears to be the sister species of Rhinebothroides glandularis, the only other member of the genus exhibiting darkly staining glandular cells lying free in the parenchyma surrounding the terminal genitalia. The new species resembles Rhinebothroides glandularis, Rhinebothroides freitasi, and Rhinebothroides scorzai by having poral ovarian arms that extend anteriorly beyond the posterior margin of the cirrus sac, coiled vaginae, and vitelline follicles not interrupted on the poral side in the vicinity of the genital pore. It differs from all 6 previously described members of the genus by possessing an average of 31 testes per proglottid, compared with an average of 45 for R. glandularis, 55 for R. freitasi and R. venezuelensis, 77 for Rhinebothroides circularisi and Rhinebothroides moralarai, and 80 for R. scorzai. An updated phylogenetic tree for Rhinebothroides is presented.

[Childhood sexual abuses among 1307 adult students and analysis on results of Symptom Checklist-90 test].

OBJECTIVE: To survey the occurrence of childhood sexual abuses (CSA) among adult students and analyze the correlation between the sexual abuses and the results of Symptom Check-List-90 (SCL-90) test. METHODS: Questionnaire survey of 1307 adult students (701 female students, 606 male students) in a college about their personal experience on childhood sexual abuses. The surveys were conducted anonymously. And SCL-90 test was carried out at the same time. RESULTS: A total of 1307 students were surveyed. 18.67% of them (female students, 155, 22.11%; male students, 89, 14.69%) experienced non-physical contact sexual abuses and/or physical contact sexual abuses before the age of 18 years, among whom 124 students (female students, 81, 11.55%; male students, 44, 7.26%) experienced physical contact sexual abuses, including 35 (26 female; 9 male) who suffered attempted genital or anal sexual intercourse and 11 (8 female and 3 male) were forced for genital or anal sexual intercourse; 13.70% (female 15.66%; male 11.44%) said they experienced sexual abuses before the age of 16 years. Of the boys, experienced sexual abuse 54.7% from age 12 to age 16 years. And among the girls sexual abuses tended to increase with their growth (results of tendency test: chi(2) = 33.5, P < 0.001). The abusers were mostly males; only a small percentage of them used violence; for most female students who experienced non-physical contact sexual abuses, the abusers were strangers (78.7%), while 71.3% of physical contact abuses were from acquaintances, 12.5% of them were teachers, 17.5% were neighbors and 21.3% were relatives. Of the male victims, 89.9% said they knew the abusers before the abuses happened, 14.6% (13 out of 89) of them were teachers, and neighbors constituted another 21.3% (19 out of 89). Students who experienced childhood sexual abuses got higher scores than the students who didn't have such experience in the nine basic symptom factors of SCL-90 and higher than normal model of national young group notably. CONCLUSION: Childhood sexual abuse among students is not rare. The female students' incidence was obviously higher than that among the male students (chi(2) = 11.8, P = 0.001). About half of the abusers were the victims' close relatives, neighbors and teachers who live or study together with them. Personal experience of childhood sexual abuses may be one of the important factors influencing the victims' results of SCL-90 test.

[Checklist for the detection of cognitive and emotional consequences after stroke (CLCE-24)].

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Cognitive and emotional problems are common after stroke and screening is essential. In this paper a new screening instrument is presented and its usability is investigated. METHODS: A group of stroke patients (N = 69) were interviewed using the new instrument, the CLCE-24, six months post stroke. Moreover extensive neuropsychological testing was conducted (including MMSE/CAMCOG). RESULTS: Patients, relatives and assessors (a psychologist) were positive about its use. The interview with the CLCE-24 took 11.1 minutes on average (5-35 minutes). Eighty percent of the patients had complaints; 73% had cognitive problems, while 51% had emotional problems. Patients with at least one complaint on the CLCE-24 scored lower on the MMSE (t=2.5; p = 0.01) and the CAMCOG (t= 2.5; p= 0.02) compared to patients without complaints. CONCLUSIONS: The CLCE-24 can be applied by professionals in primary care for identification of cognitive and emotional complaints after stroke. Further research and implementation in clinical practice and the stroke service is recommended.
