Understanding cancer nurses’ training, development and career progression needs: insights from the ACCEND workforce survey

The Aspirant Cancer Career and Education Development (ACCEND) programme provides a clear, structured framework for the education, training and career development of the nursing and allied health professions workforce who provide care to people affected by cancer. The programme is...

Co-creating and testing a bibliotherapy e-storybook for children coping with parental complex post-traumatic stress disorder

The e-storybook was perceived as a useful bibliotherapy tool to support child and family outcomes and to facilitate meaningful conversations about family experiences.

Third place visiting among mid-to-older adults: a cross-classified multilevel analysis

Background Visiting ‘third places’ outside of the home or workplace is associated with better health. For mid-to-older adults, visiting third places provides opportunities for social connectedness and physical activity that can support healthy ageing. We aimed to identify factors...

Cutaneous Lymphoma International Prognostic Index and Risk Stratification in Advanced Mycosis Fungoides and Sézary Syndrome

Importance Risk stratification in advanced mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome (MF/SS) remains suboptimal given that current TNMB (tumor, node, metastasis, blood) staging has limited prognostic value for clinically relevant outcomes. Objective To determine whether the Cutaneous...

An international multicenter analysis of the outcome of pediatric first variceal hemorrhage

Background & Aims: Management of portal hypertension in children including primary prophylaxis of variceal bleeding is controversial due to limited understanding of mortality risk after first variceal hemorrhage (1VH). This international multicenter study was designed to advance...

Turning points in climate change adaptation: Storytelling and co-producing visions and pathways for creating well-adapted places

Clear adaptation outcomes are essential for driving climate action and assessing progress. However, developing a shared vision of desirable adaptation outcomes and the steps to achieve them requires a shared understanding of what constitutes a well-adapted place and what resource...

The Python simulations of chemistry framework: 10 years of an open-source quantum chemistry project

Over the past decade, the Python-based Simulations of Chemistry Framework (PySCF) has developed into a widely used open-source platform for electronic-structure theory and quantum chemical method development. This article reviews the major advances since the previous overview in...

Disentangling the drivers of heterogeneity in SARS-CoV-2 transmission from data on viral load and daily contact rates

Abstract SARS-CoV-2 transmission is highly overdispersed, with a minority of individuals responsible for the majority of transmission, though the drivers of this heterogeneity are unclear. Here, we assess the contribution of variation in viral load and daily contact rates to this...

Estimating differing causal roles of glutamate and GABA genes on brain and behavior in autism

Abstract The excitatory/inhibitory (E/I) imbalance theory suggests that excitatory and inhibitory alterations underlies autism characteristics. However, genetic underpinnings of this imbalance and its impact on brain function and behavior remains unclear. We explored causal links...

Accelerating charging dynamics of electric double-layer capacitors

Electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs), consisting of an ionic fluid between two metallic electrodes, are electrochemical energy storage devices complementary to batteries, allowing for a faster charge/discharge. The charging dynamics in response to a voltage step features a va...

Pollen source in Prasophyllum affects seed quantity and quality

Context Prasophyllum (Orchidaceae) contains 40 nationally threatened species in Australia, and the collection of viable seed is key to their conservation. However, knowledge of mating systems in Prasophyllum is limited, and the effects of pollen source (self, outcross, and natura...

Balancing cancer innovation with sustainable care

<i>Investment in innovative drugs must not come at the expense of wider cancer services</i>

Implementation of minimum unit pricing for alcohol in Scotland and subsequent rates of hospital-admitted self-harm: controlled interrupted time series analysis

BACKGROUND: Harmful alcohol use is a major modifiable risk factor for self-harm. We aimed to examine associations between minimum unit pricing for alcohol, introduced in Scotland in 2018, and rates of hospital-admitted self-harm. METHODS: Data were obtained from Public Health Sco...
