İnflamatuar barsak hastalığı tanılı bireylerde kronik bakım modeline göre verilen hemşire danışmanlığının semptom durumu, stres ve yaşam kalitesi üzerine etkisinin incelenmesi
Get PDFBu çalışma, İnflamatuar Barsak Hastalığı tanılı bireylerde kronik bakım modeline göre verilen hemşire danışmanlığının semptom durumu, stres ve yaşam kalitesi üzerindeki etkisini değerlendirmek amacıyla, ön test-son test tasarımlı tekrarlayan ölçümlü randomize kontrollü bir müdahale çalışması olarak uygulandı. Araştırma, Şubat 2024 -Temmuz 2024 tarihleri arasında Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam Üniversitesi Sağlık Uygulama ve Araştırma Hastanesi Gastroenteroloji Polikliniği'nde yürütüldü. Basit randomizasyon yöntemiyle hastalar müdahale (n=35) ve kontrol (n=35) grubuna ayrılarak 70 hasta ile araştırma tamamlandı. Araştırmada verilerin toplanması amacıyla Hasta Bilgi Formu, İnflamatuar Barsak Hastalıkları Aktivite İndeksleri, İnflamatuar Barsak Hastalıkları Semptom Değerlendirme Formu, Algılanan Stres Ölçeği, İnflamatuar Bağırsak Hastalarında Yaşam Kalitesi Değerlendirme Ölçeği, Kronik Hastalık Bakımını Değerlendirme Ölçeği-Hasta Formu kullanıldı. Hastalara çalışmanın başlangıcında formlar uygulandı. Müdahale grubundaki hastalara araştırmacı tarafından görsel destekli sunum ve soru-cevap şeklinde eğitim verildi ve hazırlanan hasta eğitim kitapçığı verildi. Haftada iki kere telefon görüşmeleri yapılarak hastalar değerlendirildi, bilgilendirme yapıldı, hasta gereksinimlerine göre destek sağlandı. Her hafta hastalara bilgilendirme amaçlı kısa mesajlar gönderildi. Üçüncü ayın sonunda formlar tekrar uygulandı. Kontrol grubu hastalarına herhangi bir müdahalede bulunulmadı, çalışma sonunda bu gruba da eğitim verildi. Çalışmanın başlangıcında, müdahale grubunda orta ve şiddetli düzeyde karın ağrısı ve ishal görülen hasta oranı kontrol grubundaki hastalara göre anlamlı olarak daha fazla iken üçüncü ay sonunda tüm semptomlar yönünden gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulunmadı. Kronik bakım modeline göre hemşire danışmanlığı verilen müdahale grubundaki hastalarda üçüncü ay sonunda algılanan stres düzeyinde anlamlı düzeyde azalma ve yaşam kalitesinde anlamlı bir yükselme olurken kontrol grubu hastalarda anlamlı fark bulunmadı. Kronik hasta bakımından memnuniyet düzeyi müdahale grubunda anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti. Hastaların tamamına yakını hemşire danışmanlığı almaya devam etmek istediğini ifade etti. Araştırmanın sonuçları doğrultusunda, İnflamatuar Barsak Hastalığı tanılı bireylerde, kronik bakım modeline göre hemşire eğitim, danışmanlık ve takip programının uygulamada kullanılması önerilmektedir.This study was implemented as a repeated-measures randomized controlled intervention study with a pre-test-post-test design in order to evaluate the effects of nurse counseling provided according to the chronic care model on symptom status, stress, and quality of life in individuals diagnosed with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. The research was conducted in Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam University Health Practice and Research Hospital, Gastroenterology Outpatient Clinic between February 2024 and July 2024. The patients were divided into intervention (n=35) and control (n=35) groups using the simple randomization method and the research was completed with 70 patients. Patient Information Form, Inflammatory Bowel Disease Activity Indexes, Inflammatory Bowel Disease Symptom Assessment Form, Perceived Stress Scale, Quality of Life Assessment Scale in Inflammatory Bowel Patients, Chronic Disease Care Assessment Scale-Patient Form were used to collect data in the study. The forms were applied to the patients at the beginning of the study. The patients in the intervention group were given visually supported presentation and question-answer training by the researcher and a prepared patient education booklet was given. Patients were evaluated, informed, and support was provided according to patient needs by phone calls made twice a week. Short messages were sent to patients every week for informational purposes. The forms were re-applied at the end of the third month. No intervention was made to the control group patients, and this group was also given training at the end of the study. While the rate of patients with moderate and severe abdominal pain and diarrhea in the intervention group at the beginning of the study was significantly higher than in the control group patients, no statistically significant difference was found between the groups in terms of all symptoms at the end of the third month. While there was a significant decrease in perceived stress and a significant increase in quality of life at the end of the third month in the intervention group patients who received nurse counseling according to the chronic care model, no significant difference was found in the control group patients. The level of satisfaction with chronic patient care was significantly higher in the intervention group. Almost all of the patients in the intervention group stated that they wanted to continue receiving nurse counseling. According to the results of the study, it is recommended that nursing education, counseling and follow-up programs be used in practice according to the chronic care model for individuals diagnosed with Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
