Abstract: Background: Acute graft rejection (AGR), acute tubular necrosis (ATN) and chronic allograft dysfunction (CAD) are the most common causes of renal transplant failure. The early detection of renal transplant failure using reliable and noninvasive biomarkers is crucial for the adequate treatment and outcome. Material and Methods: In order to find out noninvasive markers of AGR or other early post transplantation complications and potential indicators for the development of CAD, urinary excretions of enzymes NAG, AAP, -GT; LMW proteins: α1M, β2M; serum/urine creatinine and serum Cystatin C were measured in 46 renal graft recipients within the first post transplantation..........

Abstract: Cultureis a unique component of each patient, and nurses are charged with caring for the whole patient while in their care. Cultural competence is an important tool that guides the practice of the nurse while providing care to the patient. Understanding the theory behind culture and the nurses' cultural competence. The Purnell Model of Cultural Competence (PMCC) is a valid framework to apply to the application of culture and values. As health care in the US is changing, it is important to note the impact that culture plays in health outcomes. This article explores the use of the PMCC to culture and values as it applies to health care. The intent is to provide an overview of the theory, relate the theory to the concepts, discuss the existing research, recommendations from the existing research, and application to future research recommendations.

Abstract: Approximately 15% of expected births worldwide will result in life-threatening complications during pregnancy, delivery, or the postpartum period (WHO, UNICEF, UNFPA, and World Bank, 2012). Most maternal and neonatal deaths in low-income countries, including Kenya, are attributable to a handful of preventable causes. Emergency obstetric and newborn care (EmONC) is an integrated strategy that aims to equip health workers with skills, life-saving medicines, and equipment to manage the leading causes of maternal and newborn death. It is on this basis that this study was conducted to find out how the BEmONC training impacted on the reproductive health......

Abstract: Background: Radical cystectomy is the primary treatment for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer, whereas alternative treatments are reserved for patients with extensive comorbid conditions or poor performance status. It was observed that the numbers of patients with bladder cancer requiring radical cystectomy accompanied with urinary diversion are increasing. These patients require meticulous collaborative care to improve the overall physical and psychological wellbeing. Nursing management protocols are a way of documenting and communicating patient care and should include daily aims, such as mobilization, that increase day by day. Objective: study was conducted to evaluate the effect of implementing a nursing management protocol on the postoperative health outcomes for patients undergoing radical cystectomy with urinary diversion. Setting: The study was conducted at the urology department at Alexandria Main University Hospital. Subjects: A convenience sample of 50 adult admitted at the above mentioned setting and diagnosed with bladder cancer undergoing radical cystectomy.........
