Background: Family physician program is one of the effective reforms of the health system in Iran, but despite the implementation of this program in rural areas and the passage of ten years since its implementation in two provinces of Fars and Mazandaran, its implementation has faced problems. The aim of this study is to identify and prioritize implementation solutions related to the challenges of the family physician program in Iran.
Methods: This is a qualitative study using semi-structured interviews with 22 snowball-sampled experts and managers of basic health insurers to extract problems and executive solutions through coding and data analysis using Atlas Ti software and content analysis in the first stage.

Ultrasound is a primary diagnostic tool commonly used to evaluate internal body structures, including organs, blood vessels, the musculoskeletal system, and fetal development. Due to challenges such as operator dependence, noise, limited field of view, difficulty in imaging through bone and air, and variability across different systems, diagnosing abnormalities in ultrasound images is particularly challenging for less experienced clinicians. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology could assist in the diagnosis of ultrasound images.

Phase transitions in the mantle control its internal dynamics and structure. The post-spinel transition marks the upper-lower mantle boundary, where ringwoodite dissociates into bridgmanite plus ferropericlase, and its Clapeyron slope regulates mantle flow across it. This interaction has previously been assumed to have no lateral spatial variations, based on the assumption of a linear post-spinel boundary in pressure and temperature.

Objective: To test the Self-Care Oral Anticancer Agents Index (SCOAAI)'s psychometric properties (structural validity, convergent validity, predictive validity, and internal consistency) in a sample of patients with solid tumour on Oral anticancer agents (OAA).
Methods: A methodological research in five in- or out-patient Italian facilities. Structural validity was tested by confirmatory factor analysis, and internal consistency was assessed through Cronbach's alpha and composite reliability.

Background: Plasmonic core-shell nanostructures with embedded internal markers used as Raman probes have attracted great attention in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) immunoassay for cancer biomarkers due to their excellent uniform enhancement. However, current core-shell nanostructures typically exhibit a spherical shape and are coated with a gold shell, resulting in constrained local field enhancement.
Results: In this work, we prepared a core-shell AuNR@BDT@Ag structure by depositing silver on the surface of Raman reporter-modified gold nanorods (AuNR).
