A conceptual model based on the value-attitude-behavior hierarchy has been developed. The survey results provide strong support for the validity of the proposed model. Specifically, the findings from the structural equation model confirm the influence of the consumers’ values, gene technology knowledge, and perceived benefits and risks of gene technology on their attitudes toward GMF. Consumers’ attitudes toward GMF, in turn, are also found to affect their actual GMF purchase behavior. The study discusses how the present findings may help marketers to fine-tune their GMF marketing programs.

We report a unique case of primary StDC with papillary features and intestinal differentiation of a 74-year-old male. We discuss the radiologic and pathologic correlation along with the differential diagnosis of this rare entity.

Novel grading approaches were proposed, but the rarity of adverse pathology hampers their discriminatory value. We investigate simple linear micrometer measurements and a proposed immunostain in CRCCs. 32 patients' CRCCs were studied: 12 adverse cases (stage pT3, recurrence, or metastasis), 15 controls (stage ≤pT2, no recurrence or metastasis after >3 years), and 8 metastases (3 were paired with primary adverse cases). The ratio of greatest dimensions of largest and smallest nuclei, in each of 5 "worst" high-power fields, excluding those with degenerative features, was designated variation in nuclear size (VNS). Percent multinucleate cells (PMC) were also counted. Mouse anti PD-L2 monoclonal antibody immunostaining was performed. Mean VNS measured in adverse primary and control primary tumors were 3.7 ± 0.5 and 2.4 ± 0.4 respectively (P...

We aimed to assess the impact of the EX-IN training on hope, self-efficacy, introspection, stigma resistance, personal recovery, health-related quality of life and employment in participants. Data was collected using standardized assessment instruments before the training started (t1) and upon course completion (t2). Data from 103 participants who participated in both measurement times were included into data analysis. Participants significantly improved their recovery, stigma resistance and introspection during the EX-IN training. In addition, a significant higher proportion of participants were employed at t2. Participants whose last inpatient stay was 0-1 year before the start of the EX-IN training showed significantly lower levels of stigma resistance, and self-efficacy at t1 than participants with two or more years since the last inpatient stay. There were no significant changes in mean values over time, or in the mean values at t2 between the two groups. EX-IN training has a positive influence on the handling of stigma, on one's recovery path and introspection. This indicates that EX-IN training has a therapeutic effect on the participants. EX-IN training seems to meet the challenges of peer support work. Therefore, the training can be recommended as preparation for working as a peer support worker as well as an intervention to improve one´s recovery process.
