BREATHLEssness in INDIA (BREATHE-INDIA): realist review to develop explanatory programme theory about breathlessness self-management in India.

Breathlessness is highly prevalent in low and middle-income countries (LMICs). Low-cost, non-drug, breathlessness self-management interventions are effective in high-income countries. However, health beliefs influence acceptability and have not been explored in LMIC settings.

Exploratory field expeditions to the Chocó forests in the northern Andes of Ecuador resulted in the discovery of a new species of (Gesneriaceae). J.L.

Preconception exposure to perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorobutanesulfonic acid (PFBS) impaired reproduction via insulin/insulin-like growth factor signaling pathway without effects on the second generation in .

In previous studies, preconception exposure to perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorobutanesulfonic acid (PFBS) reduced the reproductive capacity and altered the development of the offspring of . However, the specific pathways involved in these observations were not determined. Thus, we investigated how preconception exposure to PFOS (40 μM) and PFBS (2000 μM) affected embryonic nutrient loading and offspring development.

Safe prescribing in cancer patients during the COVID-19 pandemic and outcomes following restart of cancer care following SARS-CoV-2 infection: The COV-SPOT initiative.

SARS-CoV-2 continues to spread across the world as a highly transmissible endemic disease. For many cancer patients, SARS-CoV-2 infection is unavoidable. It continues to disrupt cancer care, causing treatment delays and major psycho-socio-medical issues.
