The value of statistical life and cost-benefit evaluations of landmine clearance in Cambodia [PDF]

, 2008
Development agencies spend approximately US$400 million per year on landmine clearance. Yet many cost-benefit evaluations suggest that landmine clearance is socially wasteful because costs appear to far outweigh social benefits.

“We Cannot Talk as a Family”: Complexities of Survivorship Communication Among Hispanic/Latino Young Adult Survivors of Childhood Cancer, Parents, and Clinicians

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Young adult childhood cancer survivors (YA‐CCS) have an increased risk of treatment‐related health complications throughout their lives. Lifelong survivorship care is recommended, yet many YA‐CCS experience disruptions in care during pediatric‐to‐adult transitions and do not receive recommended survivorship care.

Identifying Patterns of Hospitalizations Among Childhood Cancer Survivors: A Population‐Based Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) experience more hospitalizations than the general population. We aimed to identify distinct hospitalization patterns among Queensland CCSs and the associated characteristics. Methods Cases (aged ≤14 years) diagnosed between 1995 and 2019 while residents of Queensland were identified through the ...

Evidence‐Based Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Management of Pediatric Febrile Neutropenia: Resource‐Sensitive Recommendations for the Asian Continent

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Febrile neutropenia (FN) is a frequent and serious complication in children receiving cancer therapy. Standardizing FN management across Asia is challenging due to variable healthcare infrastructure, diagnostic capacity, and infection patterns; however, it could improve resource use and patient outcomes.

Numerical Study on Aerodynamic Characteristics of Dual-Ducted Fan System for UAVs Under Coupled Effects of Ground Clearance and Duct Gap

Drones
Due to their low noise and high efficiency, ducted fans are extensively used in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). As the core lift and propulsion units, the aerodynamic performance of dual-ducted fans critically determines propulsion efficiency and flight

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Film cooling characteristics of squealer tip of a turbine blade

Xibei Gongye Daxue Xuebao
The high-speed and high-temperature gap leakage flow in the turbine blade tip clearance directly scours the tip of the rotor blade and generates a local high-temperature region, so the active and passive control of the gap leakage flow is very important.
