Although there are known disparities in neonatal and perinatal deaths across cultural groups, less is known about how cultural diversity impacts neonatal palliative care. This article critically reviews available literature and sets out key questions that need to be addressed to enhance neonatal palliative care provision for culturally diverse families. We begin by critically reviewing the challenges to recording, categorizing and understanding data which need to be addressed to enable a true reflection of the health disparities in neonatal mortality.

This paper describes the quantitative measurement, by in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction (S-XRD) and subsequent Rietveld-based quantitative phase analysis and thickness calculations, of the evolution of the PbO2 and PbSO4 surface layers formed on a pure lead anode under simulated copper electrowinning conditions in a 1.6 M H2SO4 electrolyte at 318 K. This is the first report of a truly in situ S-XRD study of the surface layer evolution on a Pb substrate under cycles of galvanostatic and power interruption conditions, of key interest to the mining, solvent extraction and lead acid battery communities.
