Health Literacy, Self‐Efficacy and Knowledge of Sickle Cell Disease Among Caregivers

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin leads to severe anaemia, painful crises and organ failure. Caregivers’ health literacy (HL) – their ability to assess, understand and apply information, and interact with healthcare professionals – is crucial for managing children with SCD, yet ...

Effect of Overaging on the Cyclic Deformation Behavior of an AA6061 Aluminum Alloy

Metals, 2018
The present work encompasses the effect of overaging on the strain-controlled low-cycle fatigue (LCF) behavior of an extruded AA6061 aluminum alloy at varying strain amplitudes. During the T7 aging treatment, the size of precipitates increased from 60 nm

Early Impact of Childhood Opportunity on Neurocognitive Outcomes in Sickle Cell Disease

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neurocognitive impairment is a well‐recognized complication of sickle cell disease (SCD) that begins early in childhood and persists across development. While cerebrovascular injury contributes substantially to risk, neurocognitive deficits are also observed in children without overt or silent cerebral infarctions, suggesting ...

Remaining Life Prediction of an Aged Bridge Based on Concrete Core Test

Procedia Engineering, 2014
Abstract This paper describes a method of the remaining life prediction of an aged RC-T girder bridge based on the concrete core test results. The remaining life prediction of the bridge can also be quantitatively estimated by applying the J-BMS with the field inspection data. It needs to be verified through the concrete core specimen tests extracted
