Abstract
Cancer treatments continue to advance the management and survival of patients. However, use of these regimens can lead to significant side effects both temporary and permanent. Neuromuscular side effects include chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy and radiation fibrosis syndrome. At this time, the only way to resolve the neurotoxicity is reduction or discontinuation of the offending agent. In an attempt to limit interference with a patient's chemotherapy regimen and mitigate chronic disability, efforts for early detection through subjective clinical evaluations and objective measurement with electrodiagnostics can help to improve symptom management and minimize alteration in treatment.

Abstract
Premature infants have a high incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Systemic hypertension, arterial thickness and stiffness, and increased systemic afterload may all contribute to BPD pathophysiology by altering left ventricular (LV) function and increasing pulmonary venous congestion by lowering end-diastolic compliance. This case series studied the usefulness of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition by measuring clinical and echocardiographic improvements in six consecutive infants with "severe" BPD unresponsive to conventional therapy. The range of gestation and birthweight were 23-29 weeks and 505-814 g, respectively. All required mechanical ventilation (including high-frequency oscillation) and all but one were administered postnatal corticosteroids. Other treatments including sildenafil and diuretics made no clinical improvements. Captopril was started for systemic hypertension after cardiac and vascular ultrasounds which were repeated 5 weeks later. A significant reduction in oxygen (55 ± 25 to 29 ± 3%, two-tailed P = 0.03) and ventilator requirements, and improved cardiovascular parameters were noted. This included a trend toward reduction in aorta intima media thickness [840 ± 94 to 740 ± 83 μm, P = 0.07] and an increased pulsatile diameter [36 ± 14 to 63 ± 25 μm, P = 0.04]). Improvements were observed for both systolic (increased LV output, 188 ± 13 to 208 ± 13 mL/kg/min, P = 0.046 and mean velocity of circumferential fiber shortening, 1.6 ± 0.2 to 2.5 ± 0.3 [circ/sec], P = 0.0004) and diastolic (decreased isovolumic relaxation time, 69.6 ± 8.2 to 59.4 ± 5 msec, P = 0.044) function which was accompanied by increased pulmonary vein flow. Right ventricular output increased accompanied by a significant lowering of pulmonary vascular resistance. These findings suggest that improving respiratory and cardiac indices (especially diastolic function) warrants further exploration of ACE inhibition in BPD infants unresponsive to conventional therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Diagnostic Interview for Psychoses (DIP) was developed to enhance the quality of diagnostic assessment of psychotic disorders. The aim of the study was the adaptation of the Russian language version and evaluation of its validity and reliability. MATERIAL AND METHODS Ninety-eight patients with psychotic disorders (89 video recordings) were assessed by 12 interviewers using the Russian version of DIP at 7 clinical sites (in 6 cities of the Russian Federation). DIP ratings on 32 cases of a randomized case sample were made by 9 interviewers and the inter-rater reliability was compared with the researchers' DIP ratings. Overall pairwise agreement and Cohen's kappa were calculated. Diagnostic validity was evaluated on the basis of comparing the researchers' ratings using the Russian version of DIP with the 'gold standard' ratings of the same 62 clinical cases from the Western Australia Family Study Schizophrenia (WAFSS). RESULTS The mean duration of the interview was 47±21 minutes. The Kappa statistic demonstrated a significant or almost perfect level of agreement on the majority of DIP items (84.54%) and a significant agreement for the ICD-10 diagnoses generated by the DIP computer diagnostic algorithm (κ=0.68; 95% CI 0.53,0.93). The level of agreement on the researchers' diagnoses was considerably lower (κ=0.31; 95% CI 0.06,0.56). The agreement on affective and positive psychotic symptoms was significantly higher than agreement on negative symptoms (F(2,44)=20.72, p<0.001, η2=0.485). The diagnostic validity of the Russian language version of DIP was confirmed by 73% (45/62) of the Russian DIP diagnoses matching the original WAFSS diagnoses. Among the mismatched diagnoses were 80 cases with a diagnosis of F20 Schizophrenia in the medical documentation compared to the researchers' F20 diagnoses in only 68 patients and in 62 of the DIP computerized diagnostic outputs. The reported level of subjective difficulties experienced when using the DIP was low to moderate. CONCLUSION The results of the study confirm the validity and reliability of the Russian version of the DIP for evaluating psychotic disorders. DIP can be recommended for use in education and training, clinical practice and research as an important diagnostic resource.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This needs assessment was initially undertaken to explore the beliefs and knowledge of nurses and physicians about the impact of environmental toxicants on maternal and infant health, as well as to describe current practice and needs related to addressing environmental health issues (EHI). METHODS One hundred and thirty-five nurses (n = 99) and physicians (n = 36) working in Saskatchewan completed an online survey. Survey questions were designed to determine how physicians and nurses think about and incorporate environmental health issues into their practice and means of increasing their capacity to do so. RESULTS Although participants considered it important to address EHIs with patients, in actual practice they do so with only moderate frequency. Participants reported low levels of knowledge about EHIs' impact on health, and low levels of confidence discussing them with patients. Participants requested additional information on EHIs, especially in the form of online resources. CONCLUSION The results suggests that while nurses and physicians consider EHIs important to address with patients, more education, support, and resources would increase their capacity to do so effectively. Based on the findings, considerations and recommendations for continuing education in this area have been provided.
