conclusions the study findings suggest that mothers' knowledge and practice in the use of antibiotics is moderate, and lower parental education may lead to unnecessary antibiotic consumption and resistance. objectives the objective of this study was to study the knowledge and behavior of mothers about antibiotic use in children under six years old with urti. methods ninty-seven mothers with chi...

• The notion of authority is common in the literature on parent-child relationships. However, the notion of ‘parental authority’ remains largely unspecified. The present article first critically reviews conceptualisations of parental authority in selected developmental-psychological approaches. We find the absence of an explicit and integrated theoretical and empirical conceptualisation of pare...

This study examines the relationships between parental assets with their expectations and involvement of children’s education, and children’s educational performance measured 2 years later. Through the analysis of the mother–child data set of the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY79), results indicate that after controlling for family income and other parent characteristics, parental a...

Background and Aim: Permanent first molars (PFMs) are highly susceptible to caries due to their special anatomical form, early eruption, lack of awareness about their eruption and misidentifying them from the primary teeth. Parental awareness about the existence of PFMs in their children’s mouth could lead to caries prevention. This study aimed to determine the level of parental awareness about...

We determined the knowledge of parents of 200 pediatric patients for bacterial endocarditis prophylaxis (BEP ), using an eight question survey pertaining to their knowledge of their child's cardiac disease, medications, and BEP. The patient's cardiac lesion and current medications were verified at the time of admission for diagnostic or interventional cardiac catheterization. Each patient's...

We wish to study allele-specific expression in diploid organisms, specifically in F1 animals with inbred parental strains. Current methods for analyzing allele-specific expression rely on read alignment, which leads to reference bias unless there is prior knowledge of all genomic variants in the parental strains. However, in the case where RNA-seq data is available for both parental strains, we...

RNA-seq technology enables large-scale studies of allele-specific expression (ASE), or the expression difference between maternal and paternal alleles. Here, we study ASE in animals for which parental RNAseq data are available. While most methods for determining ASE rely on read alignment, read alignment either leads to reference bias or requires knowledge of genomic variants in each parental s...

The purpose of this study was to study the effects of giving information to parents with febrile convulsive children. All parents of children with febrile convulsions who are seen at Worcester Royal Infirmary are given information. Fifty parents of children who had had a first febrile convulsion during May 1996 to December 1996 were interviewed by telephone from July to September 1997. The same...
