The eTHINK Study: Cognitive and Behavioral Outcomes in Children with Hemophilia.

Objective: To assess cognitive, behavioral, and adaptive functions in children and young adults with hemophilia treated according to contemporary standards of care.

Study Design: Evolving Treatment of Hemophilia's Impact on Neurodevelopment, Intelligence, and Other Cognitive Functions (eTHINK) is a US-based, prospective, cross-sectional, observational study (September 2018 through October 2019). Males (aged 1-21 years) with hemophilia A or B of any severity, with or without inhibitors, were eligible.

Novel multicellular organotypic models of normal and malignant breast: tools for dissecting the role of the microenvironment in breast cancer progression.

Introduction: There is increasing recognition of the role of the microenvironment in the control of both normal and tumour cell behaviour. In the breast, myoepithelial cells and fibroblasts can influence tumour cell behaviour, with myoepithelial cells exhibiting a broad tumour-suppressor activity while fibroblasts frequently promote tumour growth and invasion. This study describes the development of physiologically relevant three-dimensional heterotypic culture systems containing mixed normal or tumour-derived breast populations and shows how such models can be used to dissect the interactions that influence cell behaviour.
