Connecting local ecological knowledge and Earth system models: comparing three participatory approaches

Ecology and Society
In this article we analyze participatory approaches used in three research studies where local ecological knowledge (LEK) and Earth system models (ESMs) were combined to deepen our understanding of human-environment systems and produce usable data tools ...

A Participatory Model of the Paradox of Primary Care [PDF]

The Annals of Family Medicine, 2015
The paradox of primary care is the observation that primary care is associated with apparently low levels of evidence-based care for individual diseases, but systems based on primary care have healthier populations, use fewer resources, and have less health inequality.

Heterogeneity in the Global Practice of Central Nervous System Staging in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) involvement in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is assessed by cell counting and cytomorphology from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and is used for treatment stratification worldwide. The ratio of “CNS2” patients in clinical trials ranges from 3% to 40%, with unclear prognostic significance ...
