Language, Culture, and Cancer: Qualitative Insights Into Communication Disparities Among Spanish‐Speaking Caregivers of Children With Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Latino children are projected to make up nearly one‐third of United States (US) children by 2060, and many of their caregivers speak Spanish. Prior survey research has documented communication difficulties for Spanish‐speaking caregivers of children with cancer, but contemporary qualitative data are limited.

Biphasic Clinical Course of Pediatric Cytomegalovirus‐Associated Immune Thrombocytopenia: Early Poor Treatment Response but Favorable Long‐Term Outcomes

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a recognized trigger of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP); however, its incidence and impact on disease course in children remain controversial. Therefore, we aimed to characterize the clinical course of pediatric patients with CMV‐associated ITP.

Generation of an Adjustable Optical Cage through Focusing an Apertured Bessel-Gaussian Correlated Schell-Model Beam

Applied Sciences, 2019
An adjustable optical cage generated by focusing a partially coherent beam with nonconventional correlation function named the Bessel⁻Gaussian correlated Schell-model (BGCSM) beam is investigated in detail. With the help of the generalized Huygens&#

Bone Mineral Density After Contemporary Treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia: A Matched Cross‐Sectional Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Reduced bone mineral density (BMD) has been reported in survivors of childhood and young adult acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL); however, data from cohorts treated with contemporary protocols and including matched controls remain limited.

Modified Luneburg Lens: How Well Does It Focus Surface Water Waves?

Fluids
An optical lens focuses light and a similar device can be developed to focus surface water waves. A detailed description of such hydrodynamic lenses is given, for which the focusing is induced by shaping the bathymetry of the bottom.

And You Think Having Children Will Make You Happy! A Case of Focusing Illusion [PDF]

Using Kahneman and Schkade's (1998) idea of focusing illusion, this paper attempts to explain why having children does not always bring us the kind of happiness we anticipated to have before our decision to having them.
