In Israel lives a heterogeneous population; most of the inhabitants are Jews, and about fifth population is made up other religions, mainly Muslim Arabs including Bedouins, Christian Druze.A national survey was performed on consanguineous marriages in Israeli Druze order to identify groups that at highest risk for autosomal recessive multifactorial disorders.During 1990-1992, women were interviewed after delivery maternity wards all over Israel. Data consanguinity between couples, their...
beta-Thalassemia is a hereditary disease caused by any of 90 different point mutations in the beta-globin gene. Specific populations generally carry small number mutations, most common which are those that widely distributed regionally. The present study constitutes an extensive molecular characterization this small, highly inbred ethnic group with high incidence beta-thalassemia--the Jews Kurdistan. An unusual mutational diversity was observed. In 42 sibships 13 were identified, 3 newly...
The objectives of this study were to identify the frequency and nature flow disruptions in operating room with respect three cardiac surgical team members: anaesthetists; circulating nurses; perfusionists. Data collected from 15 cases coded using a human factors taxonomy identified 878 disruptions. Significant differences relative discipline type. Circulating nurses experienced more coordination (χ(2) (2, N = 110) 7.136, p < 0.028) interruptions 427) 29.743, 0.001) than anaesthetists...
Two similar pericentric inversions of chromosome 9 are transmitted in two unrelated families, each which includes a consanguineous marriage. In both instances the inverted segment comprises centromere region and proximal part long arm, including secondary constriction. The was found one homozygote three heterozygotes six karyotyped individuals family; second family, five were heterozygotes. health problems propositi apparently not associated with their chromosomal constitution.
The pigment cell-specific gene, located at the brown (b) locus in mouse, has been cloned and characterized. Its gene product is required for formation of black melanin rather than brown, although its exact function remains to be elucidated. We thus tentatively named it b-locus protein this report. about 18 kilobase pairs long organized into 8 exons 7 introns. Functional analysis promoter region suggests that nucleotide residues -38/154 sufficient direct transcription melanoma whole cell...
The Human Factors Analysis and Classification System for Healthcare (HFACS-Healthcare) was used to classify surgical near miss events reported via a hospital's event reporting system over the course of 1 year. Two trained analysts identified causal factors within each narrative subsequently categorized using HFACS-Healthcare. Of 910 original events, 592 could be analyzed further HFACS-Healthcare, resulting in identification 726 factors. Most issues (n = 436, 60.00%) involved preconditions...
Importance Women experiencing symptoms of urinary incontinence (UI) may be reluctant to discuss their with primary care physicians (providers) due embarrassment and stigma surrounding the condition. Objectives As part a quality improvement pilot intervention for UI, this study aimed assess success an online screening tool in identifying bothersome UI setting. A secondary analysis sought determine percentage women who discussed condition providers. Study Design Providers from regional medical...
Changes in the marriage patterns of Israeli Jews have been associated with mass immigration from many countries over a relatively short period time.This study seeks to document consanguineous, intracommunity and intercommunity patterns, observe changes that occurred time, relation level education religiousness.During 1990-1992, 4388 Jewish women were interviewed after delivery maternity wards throughout Israel. Demographic information was received, special emphasis on country origin,...

Background. Modern organizations are increasingly reliant on teams, and many subsequently concerned with the development of interventions that can improve performance teams. Escape rooms beginning to receive attention as a potential avenue facilitate team-based research. recreational activities require team individuals work together think critically in order solve series puzzles or challenges escape room. Purpose. This article provides considerations for researchers alike concerning an room...
In an attempt to study the variation of associations between HLA and rheumatoid disease a population 44 Ashkenazi 29 non-Ashkenazi patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis were tested for HLA-A, B, C DR antigens compared relevant control groups. contrast results obtained in Middle European or North American Caucasians, Israel is not associated B15 Cw3, indicating that it very unlikely B- C-locus are involved coding susceptibility RA. The allele DR4 which found RA almost all populations so far was...
