Operationalizing Leadership and Clinician Buy-In to Implement Evidence-Based Tobacco Treatment Programs in Routine Oncology Care: A Mixed-Method Study of the U.S. Cancer Center Cessation Initiative

Current Oncology, 2022
Background: Delivering evidence-based tobacco dependence treatment in oncology settings improves smoking abstinence and cancer outcomes. Leadership engagement/buy-in is critical for implementation success, but few studies have defined buy-in or described

EXAMINATION OF THERMAL PROPERTIES OF CARBON-CARBON AND GRAPHATIZED CARBON-CARBON COMPOSITES

Frontiers in Heat and Mass Transfer, 2013
Thermal characterization is essential to the proper assignment of composites to specific applications. Specific heat, thermal diffusivity, and thermal conductivity are critical in the engineering design process and in the analysis of aerospace vehicles, space systems, power generation, transportation systems, and energy storage devices including fuel ...

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

Government Subsidies for Industrial Symbiosis: Is It Always Worth It? Assessing Effectiveness and Efficiency Through Agent‐Based Modeling

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy intervention can be a driver for industrial symbiosis (IS). However, given the wide variety of policy instruments available, policymakers should be guided in the policy design process to ensure that their intervention is effective and efficient. In this paper, we propose an agent‐based (AB) model intended to assess the effectiveness and

Toll-like receptor agonist combinations augment mouse T-cell anti-tumor immunity via IL-12- and interferon ß-mediated suppression of immune checkpoint receptor expression

OncoImmunology, 2022
We previously found that activated CD8+ T-cells increase expression of PD-1, which can be attenuated in the presence of specific Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists, mediated by IL-12 secreted by professional antigen-presenting cells.

Pathophysiologic Consequences of Early Coarctation Stenting in a Longitudinal Porcine Model

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Novel stent technologies offer early intravascular treatment options for coarctation (COA). Mid‐to‐long‐term cardiovascular responses to early COA stent interventions are undefined. Aims We studied a porcine model of COA, with and without early stent implantation with serial dilation to adult aortic diameters, aiming to define ...

Monitoring regulatory immune responses in tumor immunotherapy clinical trials

Frontiers in Oncology, 2013
While immune monitoring of tumor immunotherapy often focuses on the generation of productive Th1-type inflammatory immune responses, the importance of regulatory immune responses is often overlooked, despite the well-documented effects of regulatory ...

Towards a Biodiversity Positive Business Strategy: The MCRV (Monitoring, Conserving, Restoring, Valorizing) Framework

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite mounting regulatory pressure and growing scientific consensus on biodiversity loss, most corporate action remains reactive, fragmented, and strategically peripheral. Existing frameworks address what firms should report rather than how they can build the organizational capabilities required to act strategically.

Engineering the bone metastatic prostate cancer niche through a microphysiological system to report patient-specific treatment response

Communications Biology
Bone is the most common site of prostate cancer metastasis, leading to significant morbidity, treatment resistance, and mortality. A major challenge in understanding treatment response is the complex, bone metastatic niche.

Empreinte carbone de la forêt et de l’utilisation de son bois

Revue Forestière Française, 2020
Une idée répandue est que le remplacement par du bois des combustibles fossiles et des matériaux énergivores est une meilleure stratégie pour atténuer le changement climatique que le stockage de carbone dans les forêts.
