Diagnosis, treatment, and nursing management of the patient with hemochromatosis.

Hemochromatosis results when the body's iron stores progressively increase. Surplus iron stored in body tissues leads to organ dysfunction and death. Warnings that elevated iron stores increase the risk of cancer development necessitate a review of this condition. Two types of hemochromatosis, hereditary and secondary, are diagnosed in today's hematology-oncology practices. Distinguishing the differences with respect to etiology and management is essential to the risk assessment and long-term nursing management of this patient population.

Sexual behavior and guilt among women: a cross-generational comparison.

This paper reports the results of a study of the relationship between guilt and sexual behavior among 45 married women. The age breakdown of the subjects included 60 and above, 40 to 50, and 20 to 30, with 15 women included in each age category. A negative relationship was found between the age of subjects and the extent of sexual behavior while a positive relationship existed between age and sexual guilt. The younger women's sexual behavior scores were higher than both the middle and older (statistically significant) women. Scores indicated less guilt associated with sexual behavior for the younger women than for the middle-aged and older (statistically significant) women.
