Digital education in healthcare: A mixed methods evaluation of the advanced breast cancer for nurses (ABC4Nurses) eLearning programme.

Background: Advanced breast cancer affects approximately 30 % of people diagnosed with breast cancer, leading to distressing symptoms and unmet needs. Despite the consensus on the need for specialist care, access remains inconsistent due to disparities in specialist cancer nurse education.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the acceptability, usability, learning experience and perceived impact of the advanced breast cancer for nurses (ABC4Nurses) eLearning programme on learners' clinical practice.

Factors that influence recruitment to COVID-19 vaccine trials: a qualitative evidence synthesis.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic marked a unique period characterised by an extraordinary global virus spread. The collective effort to halt the transmission of the virus led to various public health initiatives, including a variety of COVID-19 vaccine trials. Many of these trials used adaptive methods to address the pandemic's challenges, such as the need for rapid recruitment.

An e-Learning Intervention for Professionals to Promote Family-Centered Cancer Care When a Significant Caregiver for Children Is at End of Life: Mixed Methods Evaluation Study.

Background: Families are often unsure how best to prepare dependent children for the death of a significant caregiver with a poor cancer prognosis and seek guidance and support from health care teams. Health and social care professionals (hereafter referred to as professionals) often lack educational opportunities to gain the desired knowledge, skills, and confidence to provide family-centered supportive cancer care. e-Learning has positively impacted access and reach, improving educational opportunities in health care.

Adapting and testing an eLearning resource for professionals to support families when a significant caregiver for children is dying with cancer.

Purpose: Health and social care professionals (professionals) often lack knowledge, skills and confidence to support adults at end of life with significant caregiving responsibilities for children, < 18. A recent systematic review highlighted a dearth of educational interventions (n = 2) to equip professionals to provide supportive care to families when a parent has cancer. Addressing an evident gap in education, this paper details the adaption and optimisation of a face-to-face educational intervention to an accessible eLearning resource.

Effects of cadherin mediated contact normalization on oncogenic Src kinase mediated gene expression and protein phosphorylation.

Nontransformed cells form heterotypic cadherin junctions with adjacent transformed cells to inhibit tumor cell growth and motility. Transformed cells must override this form of growth control, called "contact normalization", to invade and metastasize during cancer progression. Heterocellular cadherin junctions between transformed and nontransformed cells are needed for this process.
