Parent‐to‐Child Information Disclosure in Pediatric Oncology
ABSTRACT Background Despite professional consensus regarding the importance of open communication with pediatric cancer patients about their disease, actual practice patterns of disclosure are understudied. Extant literature suggests a significant proportion of children are not told about their diagnosis/prognosis, which is purported to negatively ...

A viscoplasticity model with an enhanced control of the yield surface distortion
A new model of metal viscoplasticity, which takes combined isotropic, kinematic, and distortional hardening into account, is presented. The basic modeling assumptions are illustrated using a new two-dimensional rheological analogy.

'Fire hardening' spear wood does slightly harden it, but makes it much weaker and more brittle [PDF]
It is usually assumed that 'fire hardening' the tips of spears, as practised by hunter-gatherers and early Homo spp., makes them harder and better suited for hunting.

Abstract Introduction The TEDDI trial tested the feasibility and reproducibility of deep‐inspiration breath‐hold (DIBH) in pediatric patients referred for radiotherapy. This report presents final results, including patient‐reported outcomes (PRO) and dosimetric comparison of DIBH and free‐breathing (FB).

Precipitation of the metastable phases in a tin microalloyed Al-10at%Ag alloy
The formation of the metastable phases in aluminium alloys is closely linked with the excess vacancies. Traces of tin added to an Al-Ag alloy exert an influence on the precipitation kinetics.

Comparison of Static and Dynamic Assays When Quantifying Thermal Plasticity of Drosophilids
Numerous assays are used to quantify thermal tolerance of arthropods including dynamic ramping and static knockdown assays. The dynamic assay measures a critical temperature while the animal is gradually heated, whereas the static assay measures the time
