Five plant species with both gene expression data and genome sequence data available are included in this study: Arabidopsis thaliana (mouse-ear cress), Populus trichocarpa (black cottonwood), Medicago truncatula (barrel medic), Oryza sativa (rice) and Ectocarpus siliculosus (brown algae).
In this study we focus on how the different challenges of study life and work life of medics have a bearing on the effort-reward imbalance.
The current authors would like to thank Mr. Rudolf Isler for his extremely valuable input in the development of the method and his skilful technical assistance, and Eco Medics AG for supporting this study with their patented equipment (patent no. WO 2009/030058A1, priority date 09/07/2007).
This study of medics in Karen state, eastern Myanmar utilized both quantitative and qualitative methods to identify stressors and evaluate manifestations of mental distress amongst an understudied population of health providers in a low-resource conflict area.
Have been rolled over from another Company participating in combat medic military occupational specialty (MOS) training Research staff at Fort Sam Houston, Texas will introduce this study to Soldiers, screen them for eligibility, and obtain informed consent from Soldiers, as appropriate.
For the reasons stated above, the results of this study may have limited generalizability to populations of health providers working in other regions of Myanmar, or medics in other conflict areas worldwide.
Using a mixed-methods approach, this study examined the local idioms of distress and mental health experiences of mobile medics providing services to war-afflicted communities in eastern Myanmar.
