A Situational Assessment of the Diagnostic Landscape and Organizational Readiness to Implement Next‐Generation Sequencing at Two Childhood Cancer Treatment Centers in Ghana

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) has emerged as a promising approach to improve diagnostic accuracy, but its feasibility in low‐ and middle‐income countries remains unknown. This study characterized the diagnostic landscape and assessed organizational readiness for NGS implementation at two childhood cancer treatment centers in Accra ...

Beyond the Document: A Single‐Center Qualitative Study of Survivorship Care Plan Barriers and Opportunities Across Pediatric Oncology Stakeholders

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Survivorship care plans (SCPs) summarize cancer treatment and guide risk‐based follow‐up for cancer survivors, yet remain difficult to create, share, and use. Stakeholder perspectives are needed to inform usable approaches.

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 ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

The Assessment of Environmental and Income Inequalities

, 2022
We analyze the income and environmental inequalities and their interrelation by means of both the multidimensional poverty measurement and the Gini index decomposition. We stress how overlap between the two dimensions plays a relevant role and allows powerful insights on the contribution of the environmental dimensions to poverty.
