Introduction: Healthcare provider burnout is highly prevalent and has negative consequences. However, many healthcare workers in LMICs, including Nepal, rarely recognize or ameliorate it. This problem is worse in rural settings.

Introduction: Demand for endoscopic services is outstripping capacity in the UK. Transnasal endoscopy (TNE) utilises a narrow calibre endoscope to pass through the nasal passages, thereby reducing retching and discomfort. It is better tolerated compared with standard transoral endoscopy (TOE) but is still rarely used as a diagnostic modality.

Accurately calculating the diradical character () of molecular systems remains a significant challenge due to the scarcity of experimental data and the inherent multireference nature of the electronic structure. In this study, various quantum mechanical approaches, including broken symmetry density functional theory (BS-DFT), spin-flip time-dependent density functional theory (SF-TDDFT), mixed-reference spin-flip time-dependent density functional theory (MRSF-TDDFT), complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF), complete active space second-order perturbation theory (CASPT2), and multiconfigurational pair-density functional theory (MCPDFT), are employed to compute the singlet-triplet energy gaps () and values in Thiele, Chichibabin, and Müller analogous diradicals. By systematically comparing the results from these computational methods, we identify optimally tuned long-range corrected functional CAM-B3LYP in the BS-DFT framework as a most efficient method for accurately and affordably predicting both and values.

Purpose: This study investigates whether cancer-related stigma and pain among patients with advanced cancer influences their perceptions of receiving responsive care.
Methods: We surveyed 2138 advanced cancer patients from 11 hospitals in eight Asian countries. Participants rated their most recent healthcare visit and a hypothetical patient's experience described in vignettes concerning dignity, clarity of information, and involvement in decision-making.

Background: Patients with melanoma receiving immunotherapy with immune-checkpoint inhibitors often experience immune-related adverse events, cancer-related fatigue, and emotional distress, affecting health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and clinical outcome to immunotherapy. eHealth tools can aid patients with cancer in addressing issues, such as adverse events and psychosocial well-being, from various perspectives.
Objective: This study aimed to explore the effect of the Cancer Patients Better Life Experience (CAPABLE) system, accessed through a mobile app, on HRQoL compared with a matched historical control group receiving standard care.
