Prevalence and Trajectory of Household Material Hardship Among Children With Advanced Cancer
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Families of children with advanced cancer living in poverty experience inferior outcomes including poor parent mental health and worse child quality of life. Household material hardship (HMH: food, housing, transportation, and/or utility insecurity) is a modifiable poverty exposure—and potential intervention target—that ...

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.

Delamination resistant composites by interleaving bio-based long-chain polyamide nanofibers through optimal control of fiber diameter and fiber morphology [PDF]
In this work an innovative electrospinning system is proposed that simultaneously has an adequate temperature resistance, a high increase in mode I (þ51%) and mode II (þ96%) delamination performance and can be commercially produced.

Alternative Cancer Cures [PDF]
This chapter is dedicated to those forms of SCAM that are regularly being promoted as alternative cancer cures or treatments that prolong the life of cancer patients, i.e. SCAMs which are claimed to change the natural history of cancer. Changing the natural history means improving the prognosis either by eliminating the cancer completely or by slowing (

ABSTRACT Background The management of clinically apparent single lesions or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis, a facultative precursor of nephroblastoma, remains debated. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 37 patients with clinically apparent single or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis (two to three lesions per kidney) among 2347 patients registered between

Preparation and Characterization of Lime Activated Unfired Bricks Made with Industrial Wastes [PDF]
Utilization of fly ash can reduces the solid waste disposal problem and minimization of pollution also. Conventional production of bricks usually utilizes clay and shale as the source material and requires high temperature (900– 1000 °C) kiln firing ...
