Our hospital started the charged particle therapy since 1996. New institutions for charged particle therapy are planned in the world. Our hospital are accepting many visitors from those newly planned medical institutions and having many opportunities to provide with the training to them. Based upon our experiences, we have developed the radiation oncology teaching files system for charged particle therapy. We adopted the PowerPoint of Microsoft as a basic framework of our teaching files system. By using our export function of the viewer any physician can create teaching files easily and effectively. Now our teaching file system has 33 cases for clinical and physics contents. We expect that we can improve the safety and accuracy of charged particle therapy by using our teaching files system substantially.

Background: To understand the emergence and spread of drug-resistant parasites in malaria-endemic areas, accurate assessment and monitoring of antimalarial drug resistance markers is critical. Recent advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have enabled the tracking of drug-resistant malaria parasites.
Methods: In this study, we used Targeted Amplicon Deep Sequencing (TADS) to characterise the genetic diversity of the Pfk13, Pfdhfr, Pfdhps, and Pfmdr1 genes among primary school-going children in 15 counties in Kenya (Bungoma, Busia, Homa Bay, Migori, Kakamega, Kilifi, Kirinyaga, Kisii, Kisumu, Kwale, Siaya, Tana River, Turkana, Vihiga and West Pokot).

Introduction: Respiratory disorders pose a serious health risk for quarry workers exposed to dust, as they are a leading source of morbidity and mortality globally, often resulting in irreversible lung conditions. This study assessed the prevalence and determinants of restrictive disorder among quarry workers in Umuoghara quarry site, Ebonyi State.
Methods: This study was done on quarry workers at the Umuoghara quarry site, Ebonyi State.

This paper presents a dataset related to the physical activity behavior of 206 adolescents (107 females and 99 males) from 11 to 16 years old and 25 adults (13 females and 12 males) living in rural (77 adolescents and 15 adults) and urban (129 adolescents and 10 adults) parts of New Caledonia, an archipelago of the South Pacific. Physical behavior was assessed through 60-Hz triaxial GENEActiv accelerometers worn for 5 to 7 consecutive days between July 2018 and April 2019. Participants were randomly recruited at school and trained staff fitted the devices on the nondominant wrist, at which time all were reminded of the expectations while wearing the device.

Objective: To provide an overview of hospital-based health technology assessment (HB-HTA) activities in Latin America and the Caribbean, including the technologies assessed, resources utilized, evaluation methods employed, and challenges encountered.
Methods: A scoping review focused on HB-HTA using frameworks from the Joanna Briggs Institute was conducted across databases and gray literature.
Results: Seventeen studies were identified, and another two documents were retrieved manually at a conference, totaling 19 files.
