The Impact of the COVID‐19 Pandemic on Childhood Cancer Survival: A Population‐Based Assessment of Survival Patterns Between 2015 and 2023 in Germany

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Numerous international studies have reported declines in new cancer diagnoses, delayed diagnoses and disruptions in cancer treatment following the implementation of COVID‐19 pandemic public health measures, raising concerns that these effects may ultimately contribute to increased cancer mortality.

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.

A New Derivation of the Formula for the Length of a Loxodrome Arc on a Sphere Using Cylindrical Projections

ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information
If we take a distance from a map without considering the distortion, we will not get the correct value. We will get the correct value if we take the distortion into account, that is, if we use an expression for distance that does not contain distortion ...

“We Cannot Talk as a Family”: Complexities of Survivorship Communication Among Hispanic/Latino Young Adult Survivors of Childhood Cancer, Parents, and Clinicians

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Young adult childhood cancer survivors (YA‐CCS) have an increased risk of treatment‐related health complications throughout their lives. Lifelong survivorship care is recommended, yet many YA‐CCS experience disruptions in care during pediatric‐to‐adult transitions and do not receive recommended survivorship care.
