Dietary patterns and cardiovascular risk in adult survivors of childhood cancer: findings from the SCCSS-Nutrition Study

PURPOSE: To identify dietary patterns among adult childhood cancer survivors (CCSs), examine their determinants, and assess whether they differ according to cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk profiles. METHODS: CCSs from the Swiss Childhood Cancer Survivor Study diagnosed before a...

Paraneoplastic podocytopathies with nephrotic syndrome in solid cancers with C-Maf Inducing Protein expression

Abstract Background The main features of minimal change disease (MCD) and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) associated with solid cancer (paraneoplastic podocytopathy with nephrotic syndrome, PPNS) remain poorly described. Methods In this French retrospective study, we fo...

Prefabrication of structural walls from large mineral rubble

Abstract This paper presents a new, low-carbon prefabrication process for load-bearing structural walls. It reuses large flat concrete and stone rubble sourced from demolition waste, is readily scalable, and operates under controlled factory conditions, combining the structural l...

Purpose This study adopts a supply-side perspective to examine the associations between firm-level characteristics, territorial factors and the decision to engage in wine tourism. Design/methodology/approach Using a multisource data set from 688 Spanish wineries, the authors use...

Error Indicators and Adaptivity for a Least-Squares Method Applied to the Monge-Ampère Equation

Abstract We introduce novel a posteriori error indicators for a nonlinear least-squares solver for smooth solutions of the Monge-Ampère equation on convex polygonal domains in $$\mathbb {R}^2$$ R 2 . The theoretical analysis is carried out for smooth solutions. At each iteration,...

High-grade serous ovarian cancer is associated with increased TP53 mutation burden in uterine lavage

High grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) has low survival partly due to the lack of methods for detection, diagnosis, and risk prediction. TP53 mutations, which drive HGSC, are found in gynecological tissues as the result of somatic evolution, but it is unknown whether an excess o...
