Purpose: In 2020, the French National Authority for Health () published a methodologic guide called organizational impact (OI) cartography to define and structure assessment of the OI of health technologies. As immunotherapies are associated with extended survival and improved quality of life in advanced cancer, we aimed to identify OIs that immunotherapies had on health care systems and professionals. To our knowledge, we suggest the first implementation for OI assessment on the basis of the cartography.
Methods: A literature review was conducted, and interviews with health care professionals (HCPs) were performed to identify OIs of immunotherapies. They were asked if immunotherapies had OIs classified into three macrocriteria, namely, impact on the care process (six criteria), impact on capacities and skills required (six criteria), and impact on society (four criteria). If an OI was mentioned for a criterion, information on its impact (minor/moderate/major) and its timing was collected. We considered that an OI existed when 75% of HCPs mentioned an impact for a given criterion.
Results: Overall, 27 HCPs were interviewed. For 12 of 16 criteria, most HCPs mentioned an impact, whereas the literature identified impacts for 11 criteria. Four criteria (skills and transfer between HCPs, scheduling capabilities, and social relationship) had consensus among HCPs and a high impact; two criteria (rhythm or care duration, working/living conditions) showed consensus but a moderate impact; two criteria (funding and scheduling capabilities cross-structure) had a high impact but no consensus. For eight criteria (as environment or inequity), there was no consensus and moderate impact.
Conclusion: The introduction of immunotherapies for advanced cancer has had an important OI in France, regarding capacities and skills. Further research using qualitative analysis of interviews will provide more information regarding OI.

Introduction: Pediatric liver transplantation provides substantial survival benefit. An emphasis on value-based practices has become a central theme in many surgical fields, but have not been well-studied in pediatric transplantation. Given an increasing focus on optimizing outcomes while containing costs, defining value in pediatric liver transplantation warrants investigation.

Nitric oxide synthases (NOSs) are heme-based monooxygenases that catalyze the NADPH-dependent oxidation of L-arginine to produce NO and L-citrulline. Over the past five years, the identification and characterization of NOS homologs in cyanobacteria have significantly advanced our understanding of these enzymes. However, the precise mechanisms through which NOS-derived NO influences nitrogen metabolism remain incompletely elucidated.

Electrochemical reduction technology is a promising method for addressing the persistent contamination of groundwater by chlorinated hydrocarbons. Current research shows that electrochemical reductive dechlorination primarily relies on direct electron transfer (DET) and active hydrogen (H) mediated indirect electron transfer processes, thereby achieving efficient dechlorination and detoxification. This paper explores the influence of the molecular charge structure of chlorinated hydrocarbons, including chlorolefin, chloroalkanes, chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons, and chloro-carboxylic acid, on reductive dechlorination from the perspective of molecular electrostatic potential and local electron affinity.

Developing a reliable procedure for the growth of III-V nanowires (NW) on silicon (Si) substrates remains a significant challenge, as current methods rely on trial-and-error approaches with varying interpretations of critical process steps such as sample preparation, Au-Si alloy formation in the growth reactor, and nanowire alignment. Addressing these challenges is essential for enabling high-performance electronic and optoelectronic devices that combine the superior properties of III-V NW semiconductors with the well-established Si-based technology. Combining conventional scalable growth methods, such as Metalorganic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) with in situ characterization using Environmental Transmission Electron Microscopy (ETEM-MOCVD) enables a deeper understanding of the growth dynamics, if that knowledge is transferable to the scalable processes.
