Interobserver variability of histopathological assessment in pT1 colorectal carcinoma
Interobserver variability among 20 gastrointestinal pathologists was evaluated on 80 pT1 colorectal carcinoma cases. A pilot phase was followed by a consensus meeting, then a larger concordance study was performed. High interobserver agreement was achieved after consensus for histological grade, lymphovascular invasion, tumour budding, poorly ...

Consumer Perspectives on PICU Safety and Quality
ABSTRACT This study aimed to examine consumer perceptions and priorities for safety and quality in paediatric intensive care units (PICUs) to inform safety measurement and quality improvement efforts. We conducted a cross‐sectional, co‐designed survey distributed to PICU parents/caregivers across Australia and New Zealand.

Spider Silk Inspired Shape Adaptive and Heat Conductive Thermal Interface Materials
Inspiring by the architecture of spider silk, a semicrystalline PVDF polymer emerges selective crystallization by dipole polarization of amorphous chains while maintaining crystalline domains with exceptional thermal conductance. This precisely orchestrated hierarchical architecture optimizes thermal conductance by efficient phonon transmission along C–
