We propose a novel simple space division multiplexing (SDM) node which is rearrangeble nonblocking, and effectively utilizes enhanced network resources through SDM. The proposed node can reduce a number of ports of wavelength selective switches (WSSs) and a number of WSS modules by modifying conventional multi-stage switches and employing integrated multiple arrayed WSSs. We experimentally actualized the newly proposed node, and demonstrate wavelength, core, and direction switching functions based on 127-Gbps Dual Polarization Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (DP-QPSK) signals. We also confirm the feasibility of the proposed SDM node through SDM transmission experiments using a 40-km multicore fiber and a multicore amplifier.

Background: H19, a 2.3 kb lncRNA, has been linked to tumor metastasis and progression, but its significance in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains unclear. H19 was initially thought to have a tumor-suppressive function, but recent studies have shown that it possesses both tumor-promoting and suppressive functions.

Background: Value-based healthcare (VBHC) is increasingly implemented in healthcare worldwide. Transparent measurement of the outcomes most important and relevant to patients is essential in VBHC, which is supported by a core set of most important quality indicators and outcomes. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop a VBHC-burns core set for adult burn patients.

Background And Purpose: Shared decision making (SDM) is a patient engaging process advocated especially for preference-sensitive decisions, such as adjuvant treatment after breast cancer. An increasing call for patient engagement in decision making highlights the need for a systematic SDM approach. The objective of this trial was to investigate whether the Decision Helper (DH), an in-consultation patient decision aid, increases patient engagement in decisions regarding adjuvant whole breast irradiation.

Article Synopsis
- Shared decision making (SDM) is essential in discussing treatment options for pregnant women diagnosed with breast cancer, as it involves joint decision-making between the patient and healthcare providers.
- A pregnant woman in her 30s with Stage I breast cancer opted for conservative surgery instead of a total mastectomy after thorough risk discussions, leading to a partial mastectomy and lymph node sampling.
- Although the recommended radiotherapy was delayed to allow for breastfeeding, SDM was important in navigating her treatment choices, highlighting the need for a balance between patient preferences and optimal health practices in pregnancy-related breast cancer cases.
