Abstract
Background To examine counselors' perceptions of their formal preparation for engaging in telemental health (TMH) counseling with the intent of gaining an understanding of their lived experiences. Materials and Methods Semistructured interviews were conducted with seven seasoned counselors who regularly engage in technology-mediated distance counseling. Results The results highlighted themes within two emerging categories: the counselor and training/education. Themes related to motivation and specific counselor attributes emerged from the first category and themes of availability, inadequacy, and modality emerged from the second category. Discussion The implications from this study suggest a lack of availability and standardization of effective training on TMH delivery. Conclusion This study identifies areas of potential future research related to counselors' preparation experiences as well specific areas of need for TMH training in counseling graduate programs and other natural opportunities.

Abstract
Background Pediatric brain tumor (PBT) survivors are at risk for developing sleep disturbances. While in other pediatric populations sleep disturbance has been associated with worse cognitive functioning, it is unclear to what extent this relationship generalizes to PBT survivors. The aim of the current study was to assess the relationship between sleep disturbance and aspects of cognition, including sluggish cognitive tempo (SCT) as well as attention and working memory. Materials and Methods Eighty-three PBT survivors 6–18 years of age who were at least 3 months post-treatment were included in the present cross-sectional study. Level of sleep disturbance was measured as a composite score reflecting various sleep problems as rated by caregivers. Cognitive measures included caregiver-ratings of sluggish cognitive tempo and attention problems, as well as performance-based cognitive measures assessing attention and executive functioning. Hierarchical regression analysis was used to assess associations between sleep and cognition. Results Of all caregivers, 32.5% reported one or more sleep disturbances as “very/often true” and over 68% of caregivers rated at least one sleep-related item as “somewhat true.” Of all cognitive variables, scores were most frequently impaired for SCT (30%). A higher level of sleep disturbance was associated with worse SCT and parent-rated attention problems. Associations between sleep and performance-based cognitive measures assessing attention and working memory were not statistically significant. Conclusion Findings of the current study highlight the importance of further investigation into the relationship between sleep and cognition in PBT survivors, which may assist efforts to maximize cognitive outcome and health-related quality of life in PBT survivors. The current study additionally suggests further investigation of SCT in this population is warranted, as it may be more sensitive to detecting possible associations with sleep disturbance relative to discrete measures that assess cognitive performance under ideal circumstances.

Abstract
Abstract
A collaborative study for the analysis of total mercury in fish is reported. The method is based upon a measurement of the volatilized mercury vapor by flameless atomic absorption. The fish muscle is digested with nitric-sulfuricperchloric acids. The mercury (II) is reduced with stannous chloride-hydroxylamine and then volatilized at room temperature in a stream of air. The air is pumped through a gas cell where the mercury vapor is measured by atomic absorption at 253.7 nm. Nine laboratories participated in the study. An overall mercury recovery of 83.5% and a standard deviation of 0.066 were obtained. Similar samples were analyzed by the official AOAC method. Results were erratic, with an overall mercury recovery of 46% and a range of 0 to 106%.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although earlier research has suggested that baseline prealbumin level is an independent predictor of outcome among dialysis patients, the prognostic importance of serial prealbumin levels is less clear. The present study had 3 objectives: first, to determine if prealbumin (a marker of visceral protein stores with a relatively short half-life) predicts subsequent albumin levels taken at least 1 month later; second, to examine the association between serial prealbumin levels and clinical outcome; and third, to examine the association between changes in prealbumin level and outcome. DESIGN The prognostic value of serial prealbumin levels was examined by linear regression analysis and Cox hazard models in an observational cohort study using a repeated measures design and time-dependent covariates. SETTING Patients were followed by a tertiary care center, receiving hemodialysis (HD; at either an in-center dialysis unit or one of several satellite units operated by the hospital) or home peritoneal dialysis (PD). PATIENTS A retrospective cohort was identified consisting of 268 incident and prevalent chronic HD and PD patients receiving dialysis from June 1998 to September 1999. MAIN OUTCOME The study examined the association between serial prealbumin measurements and future laboratory and clinical outcomes (albumin, hospitalization, and death). RESULTS Serial prealbumin values were independent predictors of future albumin levels among HD patients (P =.04), but not PD patients. Independent predictors of hospitalization included diabetes for PD patients (P =.0012) and advanced age for HD patients (P =.0008). Advanced age and diabetes were independent predictors of death for both HD (P =.0001 and P =.0368) and PD patients (P =.0014 and P =.0164). Serial prealbumin values, measured as time-dependent covariates, did not predict hospitalization or death. Further analyses examined the prognostic value of changes in prealbumin and albumin values as time-dependent covariates. The final multivariate analysis identified low baseline albumin level as an independent predictor of hospitalization among HD patients (P =.0282), whereas low baseline prealbumin was an independent predictor of death for HD patients (P =.0001). Interestingly, negative changes in serial prealbumin measurements were also independent predictors of death among HD patients (P =.0025). CONCLUSION Serial prealbumin measurements predict subsequent albumin values among HD patients. As well, low baseline prealbumin level is an independent predictor of adverse outcome among HD patients. Although repeated prealbumin measurements in and of themselves were of no added prognostic value, falling prealbumin values identified by repeated measurements were additional independent predictors of death. These results support the clinical utility of regular prealbumin monitoring among HD patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous investigations using univariate study designs have reported that delayed referral to predialysis clinics is associated with adverse outcomes at the time of dialysis initiation. However, the independent effect of delayed referral is poorly defined. Moreover, the optimal time at which to refer patients to predialysis programs remains unclear. The aim of this study was to identify independent predictors of dialysis initiation requiring hospitalization. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective cohort of 201 predialysis patients was investigated using multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Multivariate analysis selected advanced age (odds ratio (OR) 1.038,95% confidence interval (CI) 1.011-1.065), history of congestive heart failure (OR 2.877, 95% CI 1.205-6.871), and shorter predialysis follow-up time (OR 0.945, 95% CI 0.920-0.971) as independent predictors of in-hospital dialysis initiation. The risk of in-hospital dialysis initiation increased by 5.5% for every month lost due to late referral. CONCLUSION Patients should be referred to predialysis programs as early as 24 months before anticipated dialysis initiation in order to minimize the risk of future adverse outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although there is abundant research describing predictors of patient morbidity and mortality among dialysis patients, predictors of adverse clinical outcomes among pre-dialysis patients are less well defined. The purpose of this study was to identify baseline predictors of first non-elective hospitalization among a retrospective cohort of 362 pre-dialysis patients. METHODS Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard models were used to identify predictors of hospitalization prior to dialysis initiation, adjusted for baseline creatinine level. Dialysis initiation, loss to follow-up, and study conclusion were censored events. Secondary outcomes included cause-specific hospitalization and death. RESULTS Univariate analysis indicated that advanced age (RR 1.026, CI 1.016-1.037), number of prescribed anti-hypertensive medications (RR 1.149, CI 1.019-1.296), history of myocardial infarction (RR 1.979, CI 1.339-2.926), congestive heart failure (RR 2.299, CI 1.616-3.270), angina (RR 2.289, CI 1.695-3.091), peripheral vascular disease (RR 1.841, CI 1.282-2.644), renal failure secondary to nephrosclerosis (RR 1.413, CI 1.033-1.933) or renal artery stenosis (RR 1.587, CI 1.036-2.430), lower baseline haemoglobin level (RR 0.986, CI 0.979-0.992), and baseline creatinine greater than 300 micromol/l (RR 1.636, CI 1.233-2.171) were predictors of hospitalization. Gender, diabetes, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, history of stroke, and hypoalbuminaemia did not predict outcome. Multivariate analysis, adjusted for baseline creatinine level, selected advanced age (RR 1. 017, CI 1.006-1.027), angina (RR 1.893, CI 1.371-2.613), peripheral vascular disease (RR 1.545, CI 1.054-2.266), and haemoglobin level (RR 0.987, CI 0.944-0.979) as independent predictors of hospitalization. CONCLUSION Advanced age, co-morbid cardiovascular illness and anaemia are independent predictors of non-elective hospitalization prior to dialysis initiation. Further study is needed to determine the extent to which aggressive pre-dialysis management of anaemia and cardiovascular disease can improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
A peer-verified, liquid chromatographic (LC) method for simultaneous determination of residues of flumequine (FLU), nalidixic acid (NAL), oxolinic acid (OXO), and piromidic acid (PIR) in catfish muscle is presented. Sample workup involves homogenizing tissue with acetone, defatting with hexane, and extracting quinolones into chloroform. Sample is purified further by partitioning into base and then subsequently back-extracting into chloroform after acidifying the aqueous phase. After solvent is evaporated, the residue is diluted with mobile phase, and analytes are introduced into an LC system where separations are made with a 5 microns, reversed-phase polymer column and an isocratic, buffered acetonitrile-tetrahydrofuran mobile phase. Determinations are made by UV detection at 280 nm for PIR and by fluorescence detection (excitation at 325 excitation and emission at 365 nm) for the other 3 analytes. Each quinolone was used to fortify catfish muscle at 5, 10, 20, 40, and 80 ng/g. The following recoveries and relative standard deviation (RSD) values represent an average of the 5 levels for each analyte: FLU, 79.7% (RSD = 5.7%); OXO, 80.8% (RSD = 6.3%); PIR, 75.0% (RSD = 5.9%); and NAL, 87.1% (RSD = 10%). Assay of 5 levels (base incurred catfish, plus 4 dilutions with control catfish) of catfish muscle incurred with the 4 quinolones gave the following averages: FLU: base, 198 ng/g (RSD = 2.3%); dilutions, 98.0 ng/g (RSD = 4.2%), 61.6 ng/g (RSD = 4.4%), 21.6 ng/g (RSD = 2.8%), 9.24 ng/g (RSD = 8.7%); OXO, base, 257 ng/g (RSD = 6.9%); dilutions, 146 ng/g (RSD = 5.5%), 95.0 ng/g (RSD = 4.1%), 30.7 ng/g (RSD = 3.8%), 13.7 ng/g (RSD = 4.6%); PIR, base, 22.1 ng/g (RSD = 4.2%); dilutions, 13.7% ng/g (RSD = 6.7%), 6.49 ng/g (RSD = 15%), 2.65 ng/g (RSD = 15%); and NAL, base, 75.1 ng/g (RSD = 3.8%); dilutions, 42.3 ng/g (RSD = 5.1%), 24.1 ng/g (RSD = 6.3%), 8.59 ng/g (RSD = 4.8%). A second multiresidue analysis of the 4 quinolones was performed by an outside analyst. Average recoveries from catfish fortified at 5, 10, 20, and 40 ng/g were FLU, 75.9% (RSD = 4.0%); OXO, 84.0% (RSD = 5.5%); NAL, 85.6% (RSD = 8.9%); and PIR, 66.2% (RSD = 8.7%).

Abstract
A previously published liquid chromatographic (LC) method for determining residues of flumequine (FLU) and nalidixic (NAL), oxolinic (OXO), and piromidic (PIR) acids in catfish tissue was applied to salmon and shrimp muscle. Identities of all 4 residues in salmon and shrimp were confirmed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The tissue is homogenized with acetone, the acetone extract is defatted with hexane, and the quinolones are extracted into chloroform. The extract is further purified by first partitioning into base and then back-extracting from a solution acidified to pH 6.0. Analytes are determined by LC with simultaneous UV and fluorescence detection. Muscle tissue was fortified with each quinolone at 5, 10, 20, 40, and 80 ng/g. Average recoveries and relative standard deviations (RSDs) for salmon, which represent an average of the 5 levels for each analyte, ranged from 75.9 to 90.8% and from 2.25 to 6.40%, respectively. Average recoveries and RSDs for shrimp ranged from 81.3 to 91.2% and from 7.34 to 10.7%, respectively. Identities of OXO, FLU, NAL, and PIR were confirmed in extracts of salmon and shrimp tissue fortified at 10 ng/g by determination of decarboxylated quinolones by GC/MS. Four diagnostic ions were monitored for OXO, FLU, and PIR, and 5 ions were monitored for NAL. All ion relative abundances were within 10% of those calculated for standard decarboxylated quinolones. Optimum conditions for decarboxylation and GC/MS confirmation are given.

Abstract
A liquid chromatographic (LC) method is described for the simultaneous determination of the triazine herbicides, simazine (SIM), atrazine (ATZ), and propazine (PRO) in the 12.5-100 ppb range in catfish. The herbicides are extracted from catfish homogenates with ethyl acetate, followed by solvent partitioning between acetonitrile and petroleum ether and additional cleanup on a C18 cartridge. A Supelcosil LC-18-DB column is used for LC separation, and UV determination is at 220 nm. The isocratic mobile phase is a mixture of methanol, acetonitrile, and water. Mean recoveries from catfish were 88.7, 96.9, and 91.7%; standard deviations were 6.84, 7.78, and 6.26%; and coefficients of variation were 7.72, 8.03, and 6.82% for SIM, ATZ, and PRO, respectively.

Abstract
A liquid chromatographic (LC) method was developed for the determination of flunixin (FNX) in raw bovine milk. The milk was acidified and mixed with silica gel, and the mixture was packed into a chromatographic column. The column was defatted with water-saturated dichloromethane-hexane (30 + 70, v/v), and the analyte was eluted with EtOAc. The EtOAc extract was washed with water at pH 3.5, the water was discarded, and the EtOAc layer was then extracted with 0.1M NaOH. The aqueous layer was drained, passed through a primed C18 solid-phase extraction (SPE) column, and eluted with EtOAc. The EtOAc layer was dried under N2, taken up in a solution of MeOH-(5 mM tetrabutylammonium [TBA]-H2PO4 + 2 mM NaOH) (50 + 50), sonicated, and filtered. FNX was determined by LC using a C18 column (ODS Hypersil), a mobile phase mixture of 58% A (MeOH) and 42% B (5 mM TBA-H2PO4 + 2 mM NaOH), and a diode-array ultraviolet detector at 285 nm. FNX was determined in raw milk at 5 spiking levels (5, 10, 20, 40, and 80 ng drug/mL milk). Absolute recoveries ranged from 69.6 to 74.4%, and relative standard deviations ranged from 1.1 to 6.9%. The limit of quantitation was 1.7 ng drug/mL milk. A lactating cow was dosed intravenously (2.2 mg/kg) with flunixin meglumine (Banamine) to generate incurred milk residues. FNX residues ranged from 7.34 ng/mL at 16 h postdose to 1.74 ng/mL at 24 h postdose. Both levels were obtained with additional beta-glucuronidase treatment (almost no incurred drug was detected at these low levels without the enzyme treatment).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
To determine residues of malachite green (MG) and its metabolite, leucomalachite green (LMG), in catfish tissue, analytes are extracted with acetonitrile-buffer and the extract is partitioned into methylene chloride. Final cleanup and isolation are performed on neutral alumina solid-phase extraction (SPE) and propylsulfonic acid cation-exchange SPE columns before analysis by liquid chromatography with visible detection. PbO2 postcolumn oxidation is performed by isocratic elution with a buffered mobile phase from a cyano column. Recoveries and relative standard deviations (RSDs) from fortified catfish tissues were 72.9% (RSD, 1.92%; 23 ppb), 75.5% (RSD, 6.85%; 11 ppb), and 69.6% (RSD, 6.93%; 5.7 ppb) for MG and 87.4% (RSD, 2.92%; 21 ppb), 88.1% (RSD, 5.94%; 10 ppb), and 82.6% (RSD, 11.5%; 5.3 ppb) for LMG. The method was applied to MG-incurred catfish at depuration times of 0, 2, 4, 8, and 24 h. Average levels of residual MG and LMG in the 24 h depuration catfish tissue were 73.4 and 289 ppb, respectively.

Abstract
WAIS-R and NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI) scores obtained from 85 rehabilitation clients of the Evaluation and Development Center of Southern Illinois University's Rehabilitation Institute were utilized to examine the relationship between psychometric intelligence and personality. Correlational analyses revealed that the NEO-PI Openness domain and its six facets significantly correlated with WAIS-R FSIQ, VIQ, PIQ, and 9 of the 11 subtests. Multiple regression analyses showed that the five NEO-PI domains accounted for significant proportions of WAIS-R, FSIQ, VIQ, and PIQ score variance. The NEO-PI Openness domain was found to be the best predictor of WAIS-R FSIQ, VIQ, and PIQ scores. The study concludes with a discussion of the meaning and implications of the findings and suggestions for future research.

An interlaboratory study of a gas chromatographic method for determining chloramphenicol (CAP) residues in shrimp was conducted. An internal standard (Istd), the meta isomer of CAP, was added to the shrimp, and the treated shrimp were homogenized with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate extract was defatted with hexane, and the CAP was partitioned into ethyl acetate from an aqueous salt solution. The ethyl acetate was evaporated, and the dried residue was treated with Sylon, a trimethylsilyl derivatizing agent, to yield the trimethylsilyl derivative of CAP. A portion of the solution containing the derivative was injected into a gas chromatograph equipped with an electron capture detector. Levels of fortified and incurred CAP were calculated from the peak area ratio of standard CAP to Istd. Recoveries of CAP from tissue directly fortified at 5 ppb were 102% (within-laboratory relative standard deviation [RSDr] = 5.6%), 104% (RSDr = 5.5%), and 108% (RSDr = 6.3%) from Laboratories 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Incurred-CAP residues at 5 and 10 ppb levels were also determined, with the following results: Laboratory 1: composite A, 4.56 ppb (RSDr = 14.0%); composite B, 8.38 ppb (RSDr = 11.6%); Laboratory 2: composite A, 4.17 ppb (RSDr = 12.5%); composite B, 8.90 ppb (RSDr = 5.60%); Laboratory 3: composite A, 4.66 ppb (RSDr = 14.9%); composite B, 11.0 ppb (RSDr = 11.8%).

Abstract
A liquid chromatographic (LC) method is described for the simultaneous determination of xylazine (XY) and its major metabolite, 2,6-dimethylaniline (2,6-DMA), in bovine and swine kidney in the 25-100 ppb range. XY and 2,6-DMA are extracted from kidney with chloroform, followed by cleanup on an acidic Celite 545 column. A mu Bondapak phenyl column is used for LC separation with UV determination at 225 nm. The mobile phase is a mixture of acetonitrile, water, sodium acetate, and acetic acid. Mean recoveries from bovine kidney were 78.3% for XY, with a standard deviation (SD) of 7.45 and a coefficient of variation (CV) of 9.51%, and 87.2% for 2,6-DMA, with an SD of 8.38 and a CV of 9.61%. Mean recoveries from swine kidney were 80.8% for XY, with an SD of 5.92 and a CV of 7.33%, and 86.7% for 2,6-DMA, with an SD of 6.16 and a CV of 7.10%.

Abstract
A liquid chromatographic (LC) method is described for the determination of chlortetracycline hydrochloride (CTC) in poultry/swine and ruminant feeds in the 10-100 ppm range and in premix. CTC is extracted from ground feed/premix with acidified acetone, and the extract is filtered through a Millex-HV filter or disposable C18 column. The filtrate is partitioned with methylene chloride when additional cleanup is necessary. A Nova-Pak C18 column is used for LC separation with determination at 370 nm. The average recovery of CTC from premix was 95% with a standard deviation (SD) of 1.70 and a coefficient of variation (CV) of 1.79%. The overall average recovery from feeds was 77% with an SD of 3.18 and a CV of 4.10%.

Abstract
A collaborative study of the determination of mercury in fish has been completed in which wet oxidation of fish tissue in nitric acid, using vanadium as a catalyst, is compared with the AOAC official final action digestion technique, 25.103-25.105, involving a nitric-perchloric acid mixture. The study used tuna fish samples of known mercury content and included spike recovery studies in which methyl mercury solutions of known composition were provided to each laboratory. The study was designed to provide recovery information that bracketed the regulatory level of mercury in fish. The results indicate that the proposed digestion method is at least as precise and accurate as the AOAC method. The proposed method is also more rapid and less hazardous. It has been adopted as official first action.
