The meaning of trust along the treatment pathway of women with breast cancer: a mixed-methods study among cancer survivors.

Purpose: Women with breast cancer face a high degree of uncertainty. Trust between health providers and patients has been shown to improve patient quality of life and may enhance clinical outcomes. This study aimed to explore the meaning of trust along the treatment pathway.

Effect of Depth Band Replacement on Red, Green and Blue Image for Deep Learning Weed Detection.

Automated agricultural robots are becoming more common with the decreased cost of sensor devices and increased computational capabilities of single-board computers. Weeding is one of the mundane and repetitive tasks that robots could be used to perform. The detection of weeds in crops is now common, and commercial solutions are entering the market rapidly.

Body Positions and Physical Activity Levels Modulate the Ratio of Abdominal to Thoracic Breathing and Respiratory Rate in Young Individuals.

: The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted that body positions substantially affected the mortality rate. We hypothesized that body position modulates the contribution of abdominal (AB) and thoracic breathing (TB) to the breathing cycle (BC), as well as respiratory rate (RR). In addition, we hypothesized that physical activity level can increase the contribution of abdominal breathing.

Giant Inguino-Scrotal Hernia With Loss of Domain: Surgical Report and Literature Review.

The surgical repair of giant inguinal hernias with loss of domain, defined as the relocation of the majority of the intestine into the hernia sac, poses a significant challenge. In the majority of cases, a combination of different surgical techniques with the placement of multiple meshes is necessary to achieve reduction of such complex hernias. The reduction of chronic giant hernias can increase the risk of abdominal compartment syndrome or cardiopulmonary complications.

Walnut Consumption May Contribute to Healthy Cardiovascular/Endothelial Function by Maintaining Membrane Integrity.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading causes of death worldwide. A healthy diet has an important role in delaying the development of many modifiable risk factors of CVD, including abdominal obesity, high blood pressure, high plasma levels of cholesterol, and glucose. The consumption of various nuts, especially walnuts, may benefit both primary and secondary prevention due to their bioactive components.
