JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe roles of grand theory in nursing science are two fold; firstly, it gives philosophical base to nursing practice, secondly, it indicates the area and theme to nursing researches. On the direction of future development of nursing theory, there are two positions among nurse theorists. One position takes a unified theory, the other takes the anti unified theory, and advocates that multiple theories will prompt future development of nursing science. In this article the author proposes symbolic formulation of a nursing theory as a new way of searching the connections between grand theory and middle range theory and researches. In the "Genesis of nursing relationships" model, six symbolic formulas were composed. They are on "The individual in healthy state" "The patient/client" "The nurse" "Nursing situation", and "Nursing practice" respectively. The validity of these symbolic formulas were discussed based on the theory analysis model proposed by Afaf I. Meleis. Also, the relationship between these symbolic formulas and three types of knowledge, such as knowledge of order, knowledge of disorder, and knowledge of control, which Dorothy E. Johnson indicated, was identified.
Thus, the symbolic formulation of a theory suggests the emergence of multiple paradigms in the future of nursing science. Also, in this symbolic formulation, neither theorist's personal value nor world views which presuppose the view of man in her theory could not be composed in symbolic formula. Therefore, these are the areas where their own paradigms might develop in nursing science also.View full abstractDownload PDF (1177K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSEffects of the soluble components of cigarette smoke (TS) and the nicotine solution (NI) were investigated in vitro on the proliferation of kidney and lung cells originated from the 11th day chick embryo.
1) The inhibition of TS were greater than that of NI to the proliferation of kidney and lung cells in vitro.
2) In the present study, the results strongly suggest that TS elongates the generation time of lung cells and that the effective point of TS is different from that of NI on the cell cycle.
3) It seems that the inhibition of the proliferation on the kidney cells is caused by any other substrates in mainstream smoke except nicotine.
In conclusion, the difference between the effects of mainstream smoke and that of nicotine may be due to the difference of cell type or cell origin used in the present study. In addition, the embryonic kidney cells are effective for an inspection of the influence of the substrates except nicotine as a model of the influence of smoking to the embryo or the embryonic cells.View full abstractDownload PDF (435K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESS630 twin pairs who were born before 1935 have been surveyed on their health conditions through mailed questionnaires. 44 pairs (40 MZ, 4 DZ) among of them have undergone various clinical examinations at Kinki University hospital. The study results on blood pressure and high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol are as follows:
1. The concordance rates of "hypertension" were 44% among the MZ, and 25% among the DZ. On the other hand, the concordance rates of "hypertension" were 35% among the MZ, and 12% among the DZ.
2. The chronological age when the pair started to live apart have shown a significant effect on the concordance rate of blood pressure.
3. Among the blood pressure discordant MZ pairs, sports activities during younger age and frequency of egg intake have indicated positive effect on blood pressure levels.
4. The concordance rate of ischeamic heart disease was 14%, and cerebrovascular disease was 18% among the MZ.
5. Analysis of variance regarding HDL cholesterol and β lipoprotein has indicated strong hereditary influence on HDL cholesterol, and strong environmental influence on β lipoprotein.
6. Among the blood pressure discordant MZ pairs, the higher ratio of HDL/total cholesterol has shown a tendency of lower blood pressure.View full abstractDownload PDF (604K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe purpose of this study was to develop the self-care of the patients with chronic diseases. We made a survey in order to clarify the factors relating to the self-care of 92 inpatients with chronic diseases in two hospitals in Tokushima City.
1. The male patients in fifties cared for themselves better than other patients.
2. The patients, who had taken a medical examination at regular intervals when they had been in good health, cared for themselves better than other patients, when they were taken ill.
3. The patients, who were hospitalized for the first time, had more expectation of their doctors and hope for recuperation than other patients.
4. Many of the patients, who must care themselves, asked for advices of their families, which were very effective for them.
5. Next to their families' advices, their doctors' advices were good for the patients. Advices given by their doctors were most effective for the patients who must care themselves.View full abstractDownload PDF (673K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSPrevention of pressure sore which influences a qualitative value of nursing is a vital problem. Now, it has been widely reported that various factors give rise to pressure sore. In this study, two experiments of humidity which is one of the causes of pressure sore were carried out.
1. Humidity change and temperature change of the spot where bed and surface of human body contact
1) using rubber sheet
2) without using rubber sheet
2. Change of mattress weight under high humidity
1) no compression
2) 50% compression
3) 50% compression repeated
As a result of the two experiments, it is the question to use rubber sheet when thinking about prevention of pressure sore. And, we may say, position change helps to improve the local environment by pumping effect of mattress. However, these two experiments showed a tendency of water accumulation in mattress and suggested that drying of mattress is essential.View full abstractDownload PDF (557K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThis paper discussed on the limitation of supervising ability of the assistant nursing director of the ward who is one of the members of the nursing service department at the university hospitals in Japan. This study is based on the survey of inquiry which we have performed regarding to the directors (452 cases) and assistant directors (568 cases) on the responsibility for ward nursing operation of which we established the classification by our researches, on 46 university hospitals (65% of all Japanese univ. hospitals) in 1981.
1) The nursing directors might be leaving some responsibility for the management of wards to the assistant directors who belonged to them, and the assistant directors had firmer recognization to be mandatory competence of the managemental components than what the director had leaved it.
2) The common classificational components to be recognized empowering on the management of ward nursing between the directors and assistant director were the operation for the consultation or leadership on patient care, the custodial or adjustment of medicines at the ward, and to make the program of education for student nurses. The other components were scarcely empowered.View full abstractDownload PDF (823K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe purpose of this study is to clarify the oral infection and oral care in patients with Leukemia.
We investigated oral infection, chemotherapy and clinical findings from their medical and nursing record of 40 patients (AML; 22 patients, ALL; 10, CML; 8) who were discharged from Internal Medicine III Kanazawa University Hospital (attached to the school of medicine) from January to December 1983.
The results were as follows.
1. The condition of oral infection appeared post chemotherapy in 16 patients and pre and post chemotherapy in 13 patients. 11 patients appeared no conditions of oral infection.
2. 24 of 29 patients suffering from oral infection had high fever over 38℃ and 21 patients had W B C counts<1000/mm3.
3. Findings of pharyngeal culture showed that Gram-negative rod such as Enterococcus, Klebsiella, Ps. aeruginosa increased only slightly in incidence of oral infection comparing with the time of admission.
4. From this study, the following point would be suggested as one of the oral care measures.
1) Nursing assessment of oral cavity.
2) Understand of patient for the necessity of the oral hygiene.
3) Implementation of nursing care.
4) Use of strict gargle of Amphotericin B or Povidone iodine as soon as possible after chemotherapy for prevention of oral infection.View full abstractDownload PDF (982K) -
