The effectiveness of surgery versus observation for men with localized prostate cancer detected by means prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing is not known.
Using an agent-based model to study risk-pooling in herder dyads using rules derived from Maasai osotua ("umbilical cord") relationships, Aktipis et al. (2011) found that transfers led more and better herd survival than both no occurred at frequencies tied those seen the simulations. Here we expand this approach by comparing osotua-style another type of livestock transfer among known as esile ("debt"). In osotua, one asks if need, gives response such requests doing so will not threaten one's...
Over the last three decades, comprehensive school safety (CSS) has emerged as a guiding framework for disaster risk reduction in education sector.

A pilot study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of high-dose FUDR administered through hepatic artery for treatment cancer involving liver. Three dose schedules were used beginning with a 0.5 mg FUDR/kg/day 2 weeks followed by normal saline infusion (schedule A). Elevation serum bilirubin sole indication deescalate schedule B (0.3 two 4 weeks). Tolerance this escalated patient C (0.5 Eighteen patients treated, sixteen metastatic colon cancer, one leiomyosarcoma, and hepatoma. The...
