Exploring the relationship between professional roles and behavioural intentions in chronic kidney disease management: a cross-sectional study among primary and specialist health p... by Yan Liang, Wenyi Wang, Liutao Wu

“…The Karlson-Holm-Breen method was used to decompose the total effect of roles on behavioural intentions in CKD management into direct and indirect (ie, mediational) effects and to calculate the mediated percentage.Results The indirect effect of personal norm (should CKD management be included in daily work or not) accounted for 51.91% of the total effect of nephrologists on one-to-multiple CKD management intentions and 43.79% of the total effect of renal nurses on one-to-multiple CKD management intentions.Conclusion Our results support the mediating pathways of personal norms on the relationship between roles and behavioural intentions, but the mediating role of functional factors was not supported. …”

Cryopreservation of primary neonatal rat oligodendrocytes and recapitulation of in vitro oligodendrocyte characteristics by Hanki Kim, Hanki Kim, Bum Jun Kim, Bum Jun Kim, Seungyon Koh, Seungyon Koh, Seungyon Koh, Hyo Jin Cho, Byung Gon Kim, Byung Gon Kim, Jun Young Choi, Jun Young Choi

“…IntroductionIn vitro, primary rat oligodendrocytes (OLs) are widely used for research on OL development, physiology, and pathophysiology in demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis. Primary culture methods for OLs from rats have been developed and improved over time, but there are still multiple aspects in which efficiency can be boosted.MethodsTo make use of excess oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) from primary cultures, a cryopreservation process utilizing a commercially available serum-free cryopreservation medium was established to passage and freeze OPCs at −80°C for later use.ResultsCryopreserved OPCs stored for up to 6 months were viable, and retained their OL lineage purity of ~98%. …”
