Study on the Characteristics of Composite Recycled Aggregate Concrete Based on Box–Behnken Design Response Surface Model

Fractal and Fractional, 2023
This study investigates the influence of recycled fine aggregates (RFA) and waste concrete powder (WCP) on the compressive strength of concrete. The response surface methodology is employed, considering three factors: the content of WCP, the water–cement

Health Literacy, Self‐Efficacy and Knowledge of Sickle Cell Disease Among Caregivers

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin leads to severe anaemia, painful crises and organ failure. Caregivers’ health literacy (HL) – their ability to assess, understand and apply information, and interact with healthcare professionals – is crucial for managing children with SCD, yet ...

Leukemia and Exposure to Potential Benzene Sources in Children From the Mexico City Metropolitan Area, 2010–2021: A Geospatial Analysis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer in Mexico, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent subtype. Exposure to high concentrations of benzene has been associated with ALL incidence, particularly in urban areas. This study evaluated the relationship between distance to benzene emission sources and the number

Incidence and Severity of Carboplatin‐Associated Hearing Loss in Children With Cancer Assessed by the SIOP Boston 2012 Ototoxicity Criteria

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Platinum‐based chemotherapy is known to cause severe and debilitating hearing loss, but unlike cisplatin, the true incidence of carboplatin‐induced hearing loss remains unclear. We evaluated functional hearing outcomes in children receiving carboplatin to determine the incidence and severity of ototoxicity. Procedure We identified a

Increasing the strength of siliceous aggregate

Urban construction and architecture
The article presents research aimed at increasing the strength of siliceous aggregate through one-stage treatment of grains with a solution of alkaline caprolactam production waste (CASPK). The grains were treated with a 5-10 % ASH solution for 3–5 minutes. This regime is sufficient to saturate the pores and cracks of the filler with sodium cations and
