Financial Burden Associated With Hospitalisation Among Families of Childhood Brain Tumours in Australia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
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. Childhood brain tumours

Comprehensive methodology for the integrating of the organic rankine Cycle-ORC with diesel generators in off-grid areas: Application to a Colombian case study

Cleaner Engineering and Technology
Efficient fuel management in diesel generator sets for power generation in non-grid areas is a persistent concern. In this context, the use of an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) to recover heat from exhaust gases from diesel generator sets represents a ...

Operation of distributed generation under stochastic prices [PDF]

, 2006
The ongoing deregulation of electricity industries worldwide is providing incentives for microgrids, entities that use small-scale distributed generation (DG) and combined heat and power (CHP) ap- plications to meet local energy loads, to evolve ...

ν-Generalized Hyperbolic Distributions

Journal of Risk and Financial Management, 2023
A new class of probability distributions closely connected to generalized hyperbolic distributions is introduced. It is better adapted for studying the distributions of sums of a random number of random variables. The properties of these distributions are studied. It seems that this class may be useful for modeling asset returns.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
