Summary
A pharmacy preceptor development series improved resident research manuscript quality and readiness for publication. This training equips preceptors to mentor higher-quality scholarly work, boosting publication rates.
Area of Science:
- Pharmacy education and research
- Scholarly writing and publication
Background:
- Low rates of pharmacy residency research projects reach peer review and publication.
- The impact of preceptor development on publication success is not well understood.
Observation:
- A six-week preceptor development series focused on writing and publication was implemented.
- Three pharmacy preceptors participated, integrating the training into resident mentorship.
- Manuscript quality was evaluated using a standardized tool for participants and non-participants.
Findings:
- Manuscripts from preceptors who attended the development series scored higher (5.8 vs. 5.4 out of 10) than those from non-participants.
- Papers from preceptor participants achieved satisfactory scores on evaluation items more frequently (85.3% vs. 74.7%).
Implications:
- Preceptor development programs can enhance resident research manuscript quality.
- Implementing such series may increase the rate of pharmacy residency research publication.

Feedback Inhibition
53.8K
Biochemical reactions are occurring constantly in cells, converting starting substances to different products, usually with the help of enzymes that speed the reactions. Without enzymes, it would take far too long for most reactions to occur to be useful to the cell!

Parental Care
11.7K
Many animals exhibit parental care behavior, including feeding, grooming, and protecting young offspring. Parental care is universal in mammals and birds, which often have young that are born relatively helpless. Several species of insects and fish, as well as some amphibians, also care for their young.

pre-mRNA Processing
52.8K
In eukaryotic cells, transcripts made by RNA polymerase are modified and processed before exiting the nucleus. Unprocessed RNA is called precursor mRNA or pre-mRNA to distinguish it from mature mRNA.
Once about 20-40 ribonucleotides have been joined together by RNA polymerase, a group of enzymes adds a “cap” to the 5’ end of the growing transcript. In this process, a 5’ phosphate is replaced by modified guanosine that has a methyl group attached to it (7-Methyl...

Feedback Loops
57.4K
In most cases, excessive hormone production is prevented by negative feedback—a loop that starts with a stimulus inducing the release of a particular substance, like a hormone, to maintain a certain level before triggering a signal that results in a decrease in further release of the hormone.

Methods of Documentation II: POMR
925
The Problem-Oriented Medical Record (POMR) revolutionized medical record-keeping by introducing a systematic approach focusing on the patient's problems rather than merely listing symptoms. Dr. Lawrence Weed's introduction of this method in the 1960s marked a significant advancement in medical documentation. The POMR framework consists of four key components: the database, problem list, plan of care, and progress notes.
