Ambitions and realities: Are Global Fund investments designed to achieve resilient and sustainable systems for health? Findings from the Global Fund Prospective Country Evaluation.

Strengthening resilient and sustainable systems for health (RSSH) is central to the Global Fund's strategy, however questions persist about the Global Fund's role in the health systems strengthening space, and the extent to which investments are designed to achieve strengthening objectives, or just fill in gaps in the system. This paper reports on findings from the Prospective Country Evaluations (PCE), a multi-country multi-year evaluation of Global Fund support. We adapted a framework from Chee et al.

Children's perceptions of their participation rights context when living in residential care and its relationship with their subjective well-being.

Background: Participation rights of children in residential care have not been frequently explored despite the positive effects of participation on their subjective well-being (SWB).

Objective: To explore the relationship of six rights-related perceptions with the SWB of children and adolescents in residential care.

Participants And Setting: N = 268, 9-19-year-olds living in residential care.

Oxidative Stress Plays an Important Role in Glutamatergic Excitotoxicity-Induced Cochlear Synaptopathy: Implication for Therapeutic Molecules Screening.

The disruption of the synaptic connection between the sensory inner hair cells (IHCs) and the auditory nerve fiber terminals of the type I spiral ganglion neurons (SGN) has been observed early in several auditory pathologies (e.g., noise-induced or ototoxic drug-induced or age-related hearing loss).

Survival according to the site of metastasis in triple-negative breast cancer patients: The Peruvian experience.

Background: Evidence regarding differences in survival associated with the site of metastasis in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains limited. Our aim was to analyze the overall survival (OS), distant relapse free survival (DRFS), and survival since the diagnosis of the relapse (MS), according to the side of metastasis.

Methods: This was a retrospective study of TNBC patients with distant metastases at the Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Neoplasicas (Lima, Peru) from 2000 to 2014.

Selective dehydrogenation of ammonia borane to polycondensated BN rings catalysed by ruthenium olefin complexes.

Dehydrogenation of ammonia borane to well-defined products is an important but challenging reaction. A dinuclear ruthenium complex with a Ru-Ru bond bearing a diazadiene (dad) unit and olefins as non-innocent ligands catalyzes the highly selective formation of conjugated polycondensed borazine oligomers (BNH), predominantly BNH, the BN analogue of superbenzene.
