Background: Screening for adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and resilience in pregnancy is a promising practice for mitigating ACEs-related health complications. Yet, the best follow-up for pregnant patients with high ACEs and/or low resilience has not been established.
Objective: This study evaluates referrals to and participation in an embedded health psychologist (EHP) intervention for pregnant patients with ACEs and/or low resilience.
Problem: The tumor microenvironment is made up of tissue that is responsible for the growth and progression of the tumor as well as its ability to initiate metastases. The cancer cells on the front of the tumor together with the macrophages and fibroblasts help to constitute the aggressive phenotype of the tumor. The presence of this aggressive phenotype is indicated by the local infiltration of cancer cells and by the development of lymph node metastases.

Optimal conditions were found to be: 0.1 mol L(-1) acetate buffer (pH 5.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA differential pulse adsorptive stripping voltammetric method has been developed for molybdenum trace determination in environmental water samples containing organic compounds. It was proved that interferences from the organic matrix such as surface active substances and humic substances could be removed by the addition of resin to the analysed sample prior to voltammetric measurement. The parameters for Mo(VI) determination in the presence of resin, using a hanging mercury drop as the working electrode, were examined systematically for two complexing agents: cupferron and chloranilic acid.
