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

Reactive formation of magnesiowüstite at the lunar core-mantle boundary

Nature Communications
Seismological and geodetic data indicate that the lunar core-mantle boundary (CMB) exhibits a well-defined low-velocity zone (LVZ) with a combination of anomalous seismic velocities and density that remain unexplained.

Experimental study on influences of surface surcharge on existing shield tunnels buried in soft and hard soils

Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019
To explore the influences of surface surcharge on the existing shield tunnels buried in soft and hard soil strata, the scaled model tests on the interaction between shield tunnels and strata are carried out, and the tunnel deformation, earth pressure and

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)

Amphibole's Influence on Mid‐Lithosphere Discontinuity: Insights From Electrical Conductivity

Geophysical Research Letters
The potential role of metasomatism‐induced hydrated layers, such as amphibole, in causing the mid‐lithospheric discontinuities (MLDs) has been widely debated.

Lateral earth pressure on rigid retaining walls with EPS deformable geofoam inclusions

Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019
The finite difference program, FLAC3D, is used to model the rigid retaining wall with EPS (expanded polystyrene) deformable geofoam inclusions, and the lateral earth pressure on the wall is obtained from numerical results. The at-rest state, active state

Adsorption behavior of H2 in quartz silt-pores at high temperature and pressure

AIP Advances, 2023
To understand the storage and transport of H2 in the Earth’s interior, the adsorption behaviors of H2 in the slit-like pore of quartz under different conditions were calculated by the grand canonical Monte Carlo method.
