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 ...

Computer-aided identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae’s Bacteriophage-Q-beta inhibitors from selected anti-gonorrheal plants

Discover Chemistry
The emergence of multidrug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae has intensified the need for innovative therapeutic strategies. One promising but underexplored target is the Hfq protein, a key regulator in bacterial stress response and pathogenesis.

Psychosocial Functioning After Pediatric Bone Sarcoma: Generic and Survivor‐Specific Outcomes in Adolescent and Young Adult Patients

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric bone sarcoma patients and survivors may experience psychosocial challenges related to childhood cancer after their intensive, body‐altering treatment. This cross‐sectional study aimed to evaluate generic and survivor‐specific psychosocial outcomes in a national cohort of pediatric bone sarcoma patients and survivors, and ...

Identification of the viscoelastic boundary conditions of Euler‐Bernoulli beams using transmissibility

Engineering Reports, 2019
A new method to identify the viscoelastic boundary conditions of Euler‐Bernoulli beams under forced response is here presented. The boundary conditions and transmissibility function with viscoelastic expressions in terms of the Green function are ...

Ironic Medications: A Narrative‐Based Psycho‐Educational Intervention to Explore Patient–Provider Communication in Adolescents With Haematological Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with haematological malignancies face significant emotional and relational challenges, often accompanied by difficulties in communicating their needs within the healthcare context. To address these issues, a narrative‐based psycho‐educational intervention based on the creation and prescription of Ironic Medications was ...

How neocarcerand Octacid4 self-assembles with guests into irreversible noncovalent complexes and what accelerates the assembly

Communications Chemistry, 2022
Neocarcerand Octacid4 can assemble with small molecule guests at room temperature to produce irreversible noncovalent bimolecular complexes, but the nature of the self-assembly pathway remains poorly understood.

Computer-Aided Verification for Mechanism Design [PDF]

, 2016
In mechanism design, the gold standard solution concepts are dominant strategy incentive compatibility and Bayesian incentive compatibility. These solution concepts relieve the (possibly unsophisticated) bidders from the need to engage in complicated strategizing.

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
