Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

Inflation and quintessence with nonminimal coupling [PDF]
, 2000 The nonminimal coupling (NMC) of the scalar field to the Ricci curvature is unavoidable in many cosmological scenarios. Inflation and quintessence models based on nonminimally coupled scalar fields are studied, with particular attention to the balance ...

An electrophysiologist’s guide to dorsal horn excitability and pain
Frontiers in Cellular NeuroscienceThe dorsal horn of the spinal cord represents the first site in the central nervous system (CNS) where nociceptive signals are integrated. As a result, there has been a rapid growth in the number of studies investigating the ionic mechanisms regulating ...

Contralateral inhibition of click- and chirp-evoked human compound action potentials [PDF]
, 2017 Cochlear outer hair cells (OHC) receive direct efferent feedback from the caudal auditory brainstem via the medial olivocochlear (MOC) bundle. This circuit provides the neural substrate for the MOC reflex, which inhibits cochlear amplifier gain and is ...

An improved effective potential for electroweak phase transitions
, 1994 It is shown that improved potentials and corrected mass terms can be introduced by using a quadratic source term in the path integral construction for the effective action.

Tachyon dark energy models: dynamics and constraints [PDF]
, 2006 We explore the dynamics of dark energy models based on a Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) tachyonic action, studying a range of potentials. We numerically investigate the existence of tracking behaviour and determine the present-day value of the equation of state

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Pre‐dilution online hemodiafiltration (Pre‐HDF) is predominantly used in Japan, whereas post‐dilution online HDF (Post‐HDF) is more common in Europe. An asymmetric cellulose triacetate (ATA) membrane may improve biocompatibility.
