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 ...

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...

Dynamic mechanical response and deformation-induced co-axial nanocrystalline grains facilitating crack formation in magnesium-yttrium alloy

Journal of Magnesium and Alloys
The dynamic mechanical response and deformation mechanism of magnesium-yttrium alloy at high strain rate were investigated using split-Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) impact, and the microstructure evolution and crack formation mechanism were revealed. The

Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Effect of bimodal heterostructure features on strength-ductility trade-off breaking in Inconel 718 Ni-based superalloy

Materials & Design
A bimodal heterostructure with alternating δ phase-rich fine-grained (FG) and δ phase-lean coarse-grained (CG) regions was constructed in Inconel 718 via the selective precipitation of the δ phase, enabled by controlled Nb content and heat treatment ...

Localization of waves in fractals: Spatial behavior [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 1989
Localization of a quantum particle on two-dimensional percolating networks is investigated numerically. Solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for particular initial wave packets we study the spatial behavior of eigenstates for two tight-binding models: the quantum percolation model and the fracton model.
