Handling and pathology reporting of specimens with carcinoma of the urinary bladder, ureter, and renal pelvis.
2003
Abstract Objective: Pathologists play a pivotal role in the diagnosis and in the report of the pathological features related to prognosis.

Adapting to Change : How the COVID-19 Pandemic has Impacted the Music Therapy Profession
2021
COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic on March 11, 2020. Since then, it has had an undeniable impact on many aspects of society, with far-reaching effects. The COVID-19 pandemic has likely affected music therapists in various ways, as they typically work in-person with their clients, often in healthcare related settings.

Monialaisen ohjauksen rakentuminen ohjaustilanteissa: onko monialainen ohjaus monialaista?
2022
Monialaisia ohjauspalveluita perustellaan niiden myönteisillä vaikutuksilla asiakkaisiin, työntekijöihin ja mukana oleviin palveluntuottajiin, mutta monialaista ohjausta koskeva empiirinen ja teoreettinen tutkimusnäyttö on toistaiseksi vähäistä. Tarkastelemme artikkelissamme sitä, miten eri tavoin monialaista ohjausta toteutetaan toiminnan tasolla. Aineiston muodostaa vuosina 2018–2019 kerätty havainnointiaineisto nuorten ohjaus- ja neuvontapalveluja tuottavan Ohjaamon ohjaustilanteista (n = 68). Kysymme, millaisiin erilaisiin tekoihin monialainen ohjaus jäsentyy ohjauksen työmuodon ja ammatillisten toimintatapojen perusteella, joita olivat ohjaajien lukumäärä, ohjauksen tavoite, ohjauksen …
Influence of Oral Health Care Systems on Future Career Environment of Dental Students in Europe
2021
Oral healthcare is organized subsidiarily and independently by nation states in Europe and also within the EU and consequently, major differences between the nation states and the various oral healthcare systems in Europe are present. The socialization in the respective catchment area can have an impact on the job choice and the perception of employment opportunities of different professional groups. Therefore, the purpose of this survey was to elucidate the influence of different oral healthcare systems on students living or studying in the respective catchment area. A questionnaire (in English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish) with 18 different components was administered. Data on ge…
Teachers’ beliefs and practices
2020
Why do teachers believe some practices are better than others? Why do they criticize, or even reject, certain practices whose effectiveness has (sometimes) been demonstrated by research? The articles in this dossier aim to simultaneously interrogate the practices and beliefs of teachers in 10 school systems and contrasting sociocultural contexts. While the dossier initially highlights the variation in the meanings of these two terms, it primarily interrogates change in education and the dilemmas that this raises – between acceptance of institutional instructions and professional expertise resulting from practice.
Les chargés de TD/TP ont-ils tous les mêmes inquiétudes avant leurs premières interventions face aux étudiants ?
2010
Cet article s’intéresse aux inquiétudes d’enseignants universitaires débutants avant leurs premiers cours, en tenant compte de leurs conceptions de l’apprentissage et de l’enseignement. Il s’appuie sur une étude empirique réalisée auprès de jeunes chargés de TD/TP de l’université de Bourgogne. Celle-ci montre que la quasi-totalité des jeunes enseignants ont des inquiétudes concernant la préparation de leurs interventions devant les étudiants. Certaines préoccupations sont largement partagées par tous. D’autres inquiétudes sont liées aux représentations des jeunes enseignants. L’inquiétude relative à l’organisation de la participation des étudiants apparaît avant tout une préoccupation de ce…
Periodismo especializado y especialización política
2015
En este artículo se revisa la bibliografía sobre periodismo especializado y se analizan los rasgos normalmente aducidos para identificar la especialización periodística, que apuntan por lo general al contenido de los textos: la especificidad temática, el enfoque en profundidad, la metodología de investigación, el recurso a fuentes expertas, la necesidad de formación complementaria a la pro-piamente periodística, la orientación a audiencias segmentadas, el uso de géneros textuales con-cretos, o la adecuación lingüística. La aplicación de estos mismos factores a la especialización políti-ca pone de manifiesto la necesidad de cuestionar los rasgos aducidos y considerar otros criterios en el co…

Lähisuhdeväkivallan kehystäminen erikoissairaanhoidossa : puuttumisen ja muutoksen mahdollisuudet
2012
Lähisuhdeväkivaltaan puuttuminen terveydenhuollossa on haasteellinen ja kiistanalainen kysymys. Tässä artikkelissa käsittelemme lähisuhdeväkivallan kohtaamisen tapoja erikoissairaanhoidossa. Aineistona on kuusi erikoissairaanhoidon ammattilaisten fokusryhmähaastattelua. Taustateoriana ja menetelmänä käytämme Erving Goffmanin arkielämän vuorovaikutustilanteiden tutkimiseen kehittämää kehysanalyysia. Tarkastelemme, millaiset kehystämisen tavat estävät ja millaiset edistävät väkivallan tunnistamista ja siihen puuttumista. Aineistosta analysoimamme väkivaltaan puuttumattomuutta perustelevat kehykset ovat: 1) medikaalinen, 2) käytännöllinen, 3) individualistinen ja 4) psykologinen. Väkivaltaan p…
