Many problems that arise when providing pharmacy services may contain some ethical components and the aims of this study were to develop and validate a scale that could assess difficulties of ethical issues, as well as the frequency of those occurrences in everyday practice of community pharmacists. Development and validation of the scale was conducted in three phases: (1) generating items for the initial survey instrument after qualitative analysis; (2) defining the design and format of the instrument; (3) validation of the instrument. The constructed Ethical Issue scale for community pharmacy setting has two parts containing the same 16 items for assessing the difficulty and frequency thereof. The results of the 171 completely filled out scales were analyzed (response rate 74.89 %). The Cronbach’s α value of the part of the instrument that examines difficulties of the ethical situations was 0.83 and for the part of the instrument that examined frequency of the ethical situations was 0.84. Test–retest reliability for both parts of the instrument was satisfactory with all Interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) values above 0.6, (for the part that examines severity ICC = 0.809, for the part that examines frequency ICC = 0.929). The 16-item scale, as a self assessment tool, demonstrated a high degree of content, criterion, and construct validity and test–retest reliability. The results support its use as a research tool to asses difficulty and frequency of ethical issues in community pharmacy setting. The validated scale needs to be further employed on a larger sample of pharmacists. 相似文献

The ability of immobilization stress (IMO) to decrease Leydig cell steroidogenesis and serum androgen concentration has been previously observed, but the possible mechanism(s) involved in the adaptation to prolonged or repeated stress have not been identified. In this study, we investigated whether the Leydig cells obtained from adult rats subjected to acute (15 min, 30 min or 2 h) and repeated (2 or 10 days, 2 h daily) IMO show adaptive mechanism(s) in response to stress-impaired steroidogenesis. The results showed that basal and human chorionic gonadotropin-stimulated cAMP production by Leydig cells isolated from rats exposed to both acute and repeated IMO was significantly reduced. Despite the reduced cAMP production, immunoblot analysis revealed increased immunoreactivity for both protein kinase A (PKA) and steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein in Leydig cells obtained from rats repeatedly exposed to IMO. Also, the phosphorylation and production of mature StAR protein was evident during exposure of rats to repeated IMO treatment. Treatment with cholesterol, the steroid substrate transported into mitochondria by StAR, significantly increased androgen and progesterone production by Leydig cells isolated from rats exposed to repeated IMO. In contrast, when other steroid substrates (22(R)-OH-cholesterol, pregnenolone, progesterone, Delta4-androstenedione) were present in the culture media, Leydig cell steroidogenesis was still reduced by IMO. Thus, PKA-mediated phosphorylation of StAR protein is an important mechanism in the adaptive response of Leydig cells to repeated IMO. 相似文献
