Peritoneal Dialysis and Mortality, Kidney Transplant, and Transition to Hemodialysis: Trends From 1996-2015 in the United StatesPlain-Language Summary

open access: yesKidney Medicine, 2020
Rationale & Objective: Transitions between dialysis modalities can be disruptive to care. Our goals were to evaluate rates of transition from peritoneal dialysis (PD) to in-center hemodialysis (HD), mortality, and transplantation among incident PD ...

Complete hyperfine Paschen-Back regime at relatively small magnetic fields realized in Potassium nano-cell

open access: yes, 2015
A one-dimensional nano-metric-thin cell (NC) filled with potassium metal has been built and used to study optical atomic transitions in external magnetic fields. These studies benefit from the remarkable features of the NC allowing one to use $\lambda/2$-

Financial Burden Associated With Hospitalisation Among Families of Childhood Brain Tumours in Australia

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

Barriers and opportunities for developing, implementing and operating inclusive digital mobility services

open access: yesEuropean Transport Research Review
As digital mobility services increasingly reshape the transportation landscape, offering a multitude of choices for users, a significant lack of equality emerges: vulnerable-to-exclusion groups are often left behind, unable to equally access digital ...

Feasibility and Safety of High‐Dose Proton Re‐Irradiation in Recurrent Pediatric Central Nervous System Tumors: A Single‐Institution Retrospective Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Pediatric central nervous system (CNS) tumors often recur despite multimodality therapy. Although re‐irradiation (re‐RT) has historically been limited by concerns for severe late toxicities, modern techniques have renewed interest in this approach. Proton therapy provides dosimetric advantages that may enable curative re‐treatment with

Patient and program level correlates of 30-day readmissions: a retrospective analysis of a transitional care program

open access: yesBMC Health Services Research
Background Hospital readmissions present a substantial burden to patients and healthcare systems in terms of outcomes and financial penalties. The primary purpose of this study was to identify patient and program-specific factors linked to 30-day ...

Magnetic field induced orientational transitions in liquid crystals doped with carbon nanotubes

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2017
We propose a continuum theory of orientational phase transitions induced by an external magnetic field in a suspension of carbon nanotubes in a nematic liquid crystal.

Overlap and activity glass transitions in plaquette spin models with hierarchical dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We consider thermodynamic and dynamic phase transitions in plaquette spin models of glasses. The thermodynamic transitions involve coupled (annealed) replicas of the model.

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.
