Year: 2014

description: Background: Birth Preparedness and Complication Readiness (BP/CR) is the process of planning for normal birth and anticipating the actions needed in case of an emergency. Pregnant women, their family and the community need to plan for the care that women and newborns need during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period, prepare to take action in emergencies, and build an enabling environment for maternal and newborn survival. Pregnancy related complications cannot be reliably predicted and it is necessary to design strategies to overcome those problems before they arise. Objective: To assesses birth preparedness and complication readiness among women who gave birth during the 12 months preceding the survey in Jimma zone, Southwest Ethiopia. Method: A cross-sectional community-based study employing quantitative method was conducted in December 2010. In Jimma zone a total of 453 women who gave birth during the 12 months prior to the survey were randomly selected to take part in the study. Results: Data were obtained from 417 women yielding a response rate of 92%. Among respondents participated in the study 23(5.5 %) of them were prepared for their childbirth by arranging modes of transportation, 112(26.9%) by saving money to be used during childbirth, 28(6.7%) were prepared by identifying a skilled delivery attendant while only one respondent was prepared by identifying a blood donor. Overall only 9.6% of respondents were well prepared for the birth of their most recent baby. Women with one to four parity were three times more likely to be well prepared for their childbirth than those with a parity of five and above (AOR = 3.03; 95% CI: 1.06,8.67), women who knew two or more key danger signs during post natal period were 3.4 times more likely to be well prepared for their childbirth compared with those who do not know or knew less (AOR = 3.4; 95% CI: 1.32,8.87), women who knew two or more key components of recommended birth preparedness and complication readiness were nearly 15 times more likely to be well prepared for their childbirth compared with those who do not know or knew less (AOR = 14.9; 95% CI: 6.37,34.99) and women who attended ANC were 18 times more likely to be well prepared for their childbirth compared with those who did not attend (AOR = 18.33; 95% CI: 6.66,50.42) Conclusion: The study clearly showed that birth preparedness and complication readiness practice in the study area was not satisfactory. This suggests that women have low access to adequate maternal and neonatal health related information and services.

description: Fermions hopping on a hexagonal lattice represent one of the most active research field in condensed matter since the discovery of graphene in 2004 and its numerous applications. Another exciting aspect of the interplay between geometry and quantum mechanical effects is given by the Haldane model (F. D. M. Haldane, Phys. Rev. Lett. 61, 2015 (1988)) where spinless fermions experiencing a certain flux pattern on the honeycomb lattice leads to the stabilization of a topological phase of matter, distinct from a Mott insulator and dubbed Chern insulator nowadays. In this context, it is crucial to understand the role of interactions and this review will describe recent results that have been obtained for a minimal model, namely spinless fermions fermions with nearest and next-nearest neighbour density-density interactions on the honeycomb lattice at half-filling. Topics addressed include an introduction of the minimal model and a discussion of the possible instabilities of the Dirac semimetal, a presentation of various theroretical and numerical approaches, and a summary of the results with a particular emphasis on the stability or not of some exotic quantum phases such as charge ordered ones (similar to Wigner crystals) or spontaneous Chern insulator phase.

description: The paper deals with the sexual offences against minors, initially giving the meaning of a minor according to the greek criminal law, citing greek and international legislation that protects minor victims and organizations that protect children. Then the historical development of sexual crimes and the existing sexual offences in the Greek Penal Code are presented. The second part first refers to the role of the juvenile victim’s defense lawyer. His actions are presented before the denunciation of the crime, his contribution to the criminal part, ie during the examination of the mental and physical health of the minor, during the testimony of the minor, in the procedure at the hearing, in taking care not to disclose the identity of the victim and in the notification of dismissal of the perpetrator, and then in the civil part where he applies for the removal of parental care and the taking of precautionary measures, together with the removal of the parent and the prohibition of approaching the minor. The role of the perpetrator’s defense lawyer is further presented. Special mention is made of the error regarding the age and consent of the victim, the questioning of the reliability of the minor’s testimony, the attempt of an out of court settlement and the request for recognition of mitigating circumstances to reduce the sentence

description: Introduction: Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer among women globally and the second commonest cancer overall. In Africa, breast cancer was also the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of death. Ethiopian women typically present for care at a late stage in the disease. Objective: To assess determinants of late stage diagnosis of patients with breast cancer in public and private Hospital of Hawassa Ethiopia, 2018. Methodology: A facility based unmatched case control design mixed with qualitative study design conducted with a sample of 310 women who attend in public and private hospital of Hawassa Ethiopia. Random sampling technique used to select (155 cases and 155 controls) in two health facilities while two study facilities were selected using purposive sampling. A pretested structured questionnaire used to collect data and coded to enter into a data based and cleaned for any inconsistencies and missing values using STATA V 14.1 descriptive analysis to know the overall association of explanatory variables by examined by using multivariate logistic regression. Statistical significance declared if the P-value < 0.05. Result: A total of 310 women involved in the study. The mean age of respondents was 43 years (+8).out of total participants 108(69.7%)controls and 110(71.0%)cases was indicated that lump was the first symptom. After adjustment for important risk factor for late stage diagnosis those women not having formal education (AOR= 4.35, 95% CI (1.61, 11.75), patient delay (AOR= 3.22, 95%CI (1.72, 6.01), health care provider delay(AOR= 2.67, 95%CI (1.47, 4.83) referral delay AOR= 2.25, 95%CI (1.27, 4.00)and total diagnostic delay AOR= 8.03, 95%CI (3.18, 20.28) was associated with late stage diagnosis. Conclusion and recommendation. Late diagnosis of breast cancer was significantly associated with education, patient delay, health care provider's delay, referral delay and total diagnostic delay. Hence attention should be given on symptom recognition, early diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer.

Initiator Types and the Causal Question of the Prevalent New-User Design: A Simulation Study

description: New-user designs restricting to treatment initiators have become the preferred design for studying drug comparative safety and effectiveness using nonexperimental data. This design reduces confounding by indication and healthy-adherer bias at the cost of smaller study sizes and reduced external validity, particularly when assessing a newly approved treatment compared with standard treatment. The prevalent new-user design includes adopters of a new treatment who switched from or previously used standard treatment (i.e., the comparator), expanding study sample size and potentially broadening the study population for inference. Previous work has suggested the use of time-conditional propensity-score matching to mitigate prevalent user bias. In this study, we describe 3 "types"of initiators of a treatment: new users, direct switchers, and delayed switchers. Using these initiator types, we articulate the causal questions answered by the prevalent new-user design and compare them with those answered by the new-user design. We then show, using simulation, how conditioning on time since initiating the comparator (rather than full treatment history) can still result in a biased estimate of the treatment effect. When implemented properly, the prevalent new-user design estimates new and important causal effects distinct from the new-user design.

Intention to use youth friendly reproductive health services among youth in Bahirdar town, Amhara region, Ethiopia
Creators: name: Melesse, Addisalem
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2018

description: Background: Globally youth's age between 15- 24 years account for 1.1 billion, which is 18 percent of the total population. Although the young population accounts the largest group of the global population, they are suffering from much health and health related problems. Across a variety of global contexts, it has been demonstrated that youth friendly service can address this situation by improving the availability, acceptability, accessibility, and equity of health services for young people. The choices those youths make was strongly influenced by their own personal values as well as the customs and values they see among their peers, family, and community. This study assessed the intention and associated factors for utilization of youth friendly reproductive health service by using Theory of planned behaviour. Objective: To predict the intention to use youth friendly service using theory of planned behavior among youth in Bahirdar town, Amhara region, Ethiopia 2018. Method This study was carried out in Bahirdar city, Amhara region. School based cross- sectional study using quantitative methods. The study covered youth in high school and preparatory grades. Systematic sampling methods with sample size of 844 students were used for data collection. The data were entered, cleaned and descriptive, bivariate and multi variable regression analysis ware done using SPSS version20.0 and STATA 12.0.  Result: Eight hundred forty four students participated in this study giving a response rate of 96.4%. The model was explained by Attitude (β= 0.245, 95%CI (0.342,0.585) p<0.0001), perceived behavioral control(β= 0.141, 95% CI (0.131,0.0334), P,0.0001), subjective norm (β= 0.307, 95% CI (0.385,0.586) p<0.0001) and school type (private) (β= -0.074, 95% CI(-4.240, -0.432), P<0.016) significantly on prediction of intention to use YFRHS by 32% of the variance. Conclusion: the present study demonstrated that the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) is a useful tool for predicting and explaining intended use of YFRHS services. It has identified the important predictors to consider in promoting the use of YFRHS services. Therefore, health interventions programs should be designed to develop youth's ability to resist and change norms that can hinder the use of YFRHS this will help youth's develop a positive attitude toward the services.

description: Fast radio bursts (FRBs) display a confounding variety of burst properties and host galaxy associations. Repeating FRBs offer insight into the FRB population by enabling spectral, temporal and polarimetric properties to be tracked over time. Here, we report on the polarized observations of 12 repeating sources using multi-year monitoring with the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) over 400-800 MHz. We observe significant RM variations from many sources in our sample, including RM changes of several hundred $\rm{rad\, m^{-2}}$ over month timescales from FRBs 20181119A, 20190303A and 20190417A, and more modest RM variability ($\rm{ΔRM \lesssim}$ few tens rad m$^{-2}$) from FRBs 20181030A, 20190208A, 20190213B and 20190117A over equivalent timescales. Several repeaters display a frequency dependent degree of linear polarization that is consistent with depolarization via scattering. Combining our measurements of RM variations with equivalent constraints on DM variability, we estimate the average line-of-sight magnetic field strength in the local environment of each repeater. In general, repeating FRBs display RM variations that are more prevalent/extreme than those seen from radio pulsars in the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds, suggesting repeating FRBs and pulsars occupy distinct magneto-ionic environments.

description: Background: The synergy between tuberculosis and human immunodeficiency virus is strong in high human immunodeficiency virus prevalence population, in which tuberculosis is a leading cause of mortality and human immunodeficiency virus is driving the tuberculosis epidemic in many countries especially in sub-Saharan Africa. Objective: To assess predictors of mortality among TB-HIV co-infected patients during tuberculosis treatment in Bahirdar town governmental health institutions. Methods and Materials: Institution based retrospective cohort study was conducted between April, 2009 and January, 2012. Based on TB, Pre-ART and ART registration log book records of TB-HIV co-infected patients were categorized into On ART and Non-ART cohorts. Chi-square test and T- test were used to compare categorical and continuous variables between the two groups, respectively. Kaplan-Meier test was used to estimate the probability of death after tuberculosis diagnosis. The log-rank test was used to compare overall mortality between the two groups. The Cox proportional hazard model was used to determine factors associated with death after tuberculosis diagnosis. Results: A total of 422 TB-HIV co-infected patients (272 On ART and 150 Non-ART cohorts) were followed retrospectively for a median of 197 days (IQR: 140-221) in On ART and 191 days (IQR: 65.5-209.5) in Non-ART cohort. In Non-ART cohort more TB-HIV co-infected patients died during TB treatment; 44(29.3%) than On ART cohort 49(18.0%) with incidence rate of 6.03Per 100PMO (95%CI: 4.5, 8.1) and 3.20 per 100PMO (95% CI: 2.40, 4.20). Receiving ART (AHR=0.35 (0.19-0.64)), not initiation of CPT (AHR=3.03 (1.58-5.79)), being ambulatory (AHR=2.10 (1.22-3.62)), CD4 count category 0-75cells/μl, 75-150cells/μl and 150-250cells/μl (AHR=4.83 (1.98-11.77), 3.57 (1.48-8.61) and 3.07 (1.33-7.07) respectively) and treatment in hospital (AHR=2.64 (1.51-4.62)) were independent predictors of mortality during TB treatment. Conclusions: Despite the availability of free ART from health institutions, mortality was high and was strongly associated with the absence of ART during TB treatment. In line with other studies risk of death was over 65% lower in TB-HIV co-infected patients treated with ART compared with those not treated with ART.

description: Human error is one of the most prominent challenges facing cybersecurity today. Attackers manipulate people's natural inclination to make mistakes using social engineering tactics to exploit psychological vulnerabilities, gain trust, and access sensitive information. Trust plays a critical role in human interaction, both in the physical and digital realms, making it an attractive target for attackers. However, cultural backgrounds, which reflect individual and societal beliefs and values, are often overlooked in cybersecurity risk assessments, despite significantly influencing human behavior. This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between trust and cybersecurity risks across diverse cultural groups. The study's findings could provide valuable insights into addressing and preventing human-related vulnerabilities by enhancing overall cybersecurity measures and examining cross-cultural differences in human behavior and their impact on cybersecurity risks. As human factors in cybersecurity become increasingly crucial, this study was performed to understand the differences in risky cybersecurity behaviors among various cultural groups and investigate the impact of different perceptions of trust on engaging in risky behaviors. The outcome of this research provides insights into the critical role cultural backgrounds play in shaping human behavior in the context of cybersecurity. The results of this study may have significant implications for enhancing overall cybersecurity measures by identifying and addressing human-related vulnerabilities that may be unique to specific cultural groups.

description: Positive semidefiniteness, recursiveness, and the variety condition of a moment matrix are necessary and sufficient conditions to solve the quadratic and quartic moment problems. Also, positive semidefiniteness, combined with another necessary condition, consistency, is a sufficient condition in the case of extremal moment problems, i.e., when the rank of the moment matrix (denoted by r) and the cardinality of the associated algebraic variety (denoted by v) are equal. However, these conditions are not sufficient for non-extremal sextic or higher-order truncated moment problems. In this paper we settle three key instances of the non-extremal (i.e., r

description: Nested case-control study was carried out to assess nutritional status and identify other risk factors among people with major mental disorders (schizophrenia and bipolar), in Meskan and Marako district from Dec. 2001 to Feb. 2002. Data were collected on sociodemographic factors, lifestyle, and nutritional, reproductive health and dietary patterns. Complete data obtained from 434 cases and equal numbers of controls matched by sex, age in five years range and residence, on one to one ratio. The cohort list of Mental Health Research Project (MHRP) was used to identify all cases, and controls were selected from the nearest neighbors by frequency matching. Cases and controls were compared by socio-economic, nutritional, reproductive, and dietary characteristic. Major mental disorders were positively significantly associated with unmarried (OR=1.88 with 95%CI 1.33, 2.66), illiterates (OR=1.91 with 95%CI 1.04,2.29), Muslims (OR=1.50 with 95%CI 1.27,2.88), not having cattle (OR= 2.59 with 95%CI 1.47, 4.55) while owning a radio (OR= 0.66 with 95%CI 0.41,0.88), and spending less time on job (OR= 0.29(0.22, 0.40) were negatively significantly associated. 'Khat' chewing and cigarette smoking were also positively significantly associated (OR=2.68 with 95%CI 1.53,4.69 and OR=2.32 with 95%CI 1.37,3.90) respectively with major mental disorders. Adult malnutrition was positively significantly (OR=4.08 with 95%CI 1.42,11.74) and weight (OR=1.55 with 95%CI 1.08,2.24) associated with major mental disorders. Cases and controls were not different on micronutrient deficiencies, reproductive and dietary characteristics. The results of this study help the project managers and others in designing effective intervention strategies to improve the health of the community in general and those with mental health problems in particular. vii
NLO QCD corrections to diphoton-plus-jet production through gluon fusion at hadron colliders

description: To match the increasing precision of modern collider experiments, theory must aim to achieve percent-level QCD predictions. This pushes for NNLO contributions to two-to-three processes, whose rich kinematics of offer many attractive probes of SM parameters, which is a major theoretical challenge that novel methods are being developed for. I will discuss work in this direction for hard scattering processes with diphoton final states. Diphoton-plus-jet production is an important background for measuring properties of the Higgs at the LHC. The gluon-initiated channel is also an excellent testing ground for new technologies as it is loop-induced, so has a simpler pole structure at the same loop order compared to other processes, and a simpler colour structure than processes with more partons. We recently computed the NLO QCD corrections to this process. Analytic forms for the full-colour two-loop virtual corrections were found using reconstruction over finite fields of the rational coefficients of special functions in the pentagon function basis. We combined these with one-loop real radiation using the antenna subtraction scheme to compute differential distributions, observing significant NLO corrections. For the real correction, we also showed in a separate study that efficient evaluation can be achieved using amplitude neural networks to emulate the matrix element.

description: We consider the problem of correct measurement of a quantum entanglement in the two-body electron-electron scattering. An expression is derived for a spin correlation tensor of a pure two-electron state. A geometrical measure of a quantum entanglement as the distance between two forms of this tensor in entangled and separable cases is presented. We prove that this measure satisfies properties of a valid entanglement measure: nonnegativity, discriminance, normalization, non-growth under local operations and classical communication. This measure is calculated for a problem of electron-electron scattering. We prove that it does not depend on the azimuthal rotation angle of the second electron spin relative to the first electron spin before scattering. Finally, we specify how to find a spin correlation tensor and the related measure of a quantum entanglement in an experiment with electron-electron scattering.

description: We detail the derivation of nanolaser models that include coherent and incoherent variables and predict the existence of a laser threshold, irrespective of cavity size and emitter number, for both single- and multi-electron systems. The growth in photon number in the lasing mode is driven by an increase in correlation between absorption and emission processes, leading to the onset of self-sustained stimulated emission (laser threshold), followed, in turn, by a correlation decrease and ending with the dominance of coherent emission. The first-order coherence $g^{(1)}$ steadily increases, as the pump grows towards the laser threshold value, and reaches unity at or beyond threshold. The transition toward coherent emission becomes increasingly sharp as the number of emitters and of the coupled electromagnetic cavity modes increase, continuously connecting, in the thermodynamic limit, the physics of nano- and macroscopic lasers at threshold. Our predictions are in remarkable agreement with experiments whose first-order coherence measurements have so far been explained only phenomenologically. A consistent evaluation of different threshold indicators provides a tool for a correct interpretation of experimental measurements at the onset of laser action.

description: We review matter bounce scenarios where the matter content is dark matter and dark energy. These cosmologies predict a nearly scale-invariant power spectrum with a slightly red tilt for scalar perturbations and a small tensor-to-scalar ratio. Importantly, these models predict a positive running of the scalar index, contrary to the predictions of the simplest inflationary and ekpyrotic models, and hence could potentially be falsified by future observations. We also review how bouncing cosmological space-times can arise in theories where either the Einstein equations are modified or where matter fields that violate the null energy condition are included.

description: Locating the position of periodic orbits in galaxies is undoubtedly an issue of paramount importance. We reveal the position and the stability of periodic orbits of stars moving in the meridional plane $(R,z)$ of an axially symmetric galactic model with a disk, a spherical nucleus, and a biaxial dark matter halo component. In particular, we study how all the involved parameters of the dynamical system influence the position and the stability of all resonant families. To locate the position and measure the stability of periodic orbits we use a highly sensitive numerical code which is able to identify resonant periodic orbits of the type $n:m$. Two cases are studied for every parameter: (i) the case where the dark matter halo component is prolate and (ii) the case where an oblate dark matter halo is present. Our numerical exploration reveals that all the dynamical quantities affect, more or less, the position and the stability of the periodic orbits. It is shown that the mass of the nucleus, the mass of the disk, the halo flattening parameter, the scale length of the halo, the angular momentum, and the total orbital energy are the most influential quantities, while the effect of all other parameters is much weaker.

Gravitational waves within the magnetar model of superluminous supernovae and gamma-ray bursts

description: The light curve of many supernovae (SNe) and gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) can be explained by a sustained injection of extra energy from its possible central engine, a rapidly rotating strongly magnetic neutron star (i.e. magnetar). The magnetic dipole radiation power that the magnetar supplies comes at the expense of the star's rotational energy. However, radiation by gravitational waves (GWs) can be more efficient than magnetic dipole radiation because of its stronger dependence on neutron star spin rate Omega, i.e. Omega^6 (for a static 'mountain') or Omega^8 (for a r-mode fluid oscillation) versus Omega^4 for magnetic dipole radiation. Here, we use the magnetic field B and initial spin period P_0 inferred from SN and GRB observations to obtain simple constraints on the dimensionless amplitude of the mountain of epsilon < 0.01 and r-mode oscillation of alpha < 1, the former being similar to that obtained by recent works. We then include GW emission within the magnetar model. We show that when epsilon > 10^-4 (B/10^14 G) (P_0/1 ms) or alpha > 0.01 (B/10^14 G) (P_0/1 ms)^2, light curves are strongly affected, with significant decrease in peak luminosity and increase in time to peak luminosity. Thus the GW effects studied here are more pronounced for low B and short P_0 but are unlikely to be important in modelling SN and GRB light curves since the amplitudes needed for noticeable changes are quite large.

description: Today, we rely on contactless smart cards to perform several critical operations (e.g., payments and accessing buildings). Attacking smart cards can have severe consequences, such as losing money or leaking sensitive information. Although the security protections embedded in smart cards have evolved over the years, those with weak security properties are still commonly used. Among the different solutions, blocking cards are affordable devices to protect smart cards. These devices are placed close to the smart cards, generating a noisy jamming signal or shielding them. Whereas vendors claim the reliability of their blocking cards, no previous study has ever focused on evaluating their effectiveness. In this paper, we shed light on the security threats on smart cards in the presence of blocking cards, showing the possibility of being bypassed by an attacker. We analyze blocking cards by inspecting their emitted signal and assessing a vulnerability in their internal design. We propose a novel attack that bypasses the jamming signal emitted by a blocking card and reads the content of the smart card. We evaluate the effectiveness of 11 blocking cards when protecting a MIFARE Ultralight smart card and a MIFARE Classic card. Of these 11 cards, we managed to bypass 8 of them and successfully dump the content of a smart card despite the presence of the blocking card. Our findings highlight that the noise type implemented by the blocking cards highly affects the protection level achieved by them. Based on this observation, we propose a countermeasure that may lead to the design of effective blocking cards. To further improve security, we released the tool we developed to inspect the spectrum emitted by blocking cards and set up our attack.
Thesis on project to improve medical record completeness in outpatient department, in Dilchora Hospital, Dire Dawa, Eastern Ethiopia.

description: Background: - Any medical information is important in managing patient condition, follow up, legal issues and useful for any relevant condition related to patient. Despite the importance of medical records to high quality and efficient care management of patients' medical records, especially in developing countries like Ethiopia, it has not been a priority. Studies conducted related to medical record completeness from different aspects showed that poor medical record management system compromises patient and client care at different level. Methods: A hospital bases cross sectional pre and post interventional study was conducted at Dil-chora hospital, Dire Dawa, eastern Ethiopia from March to June 2018.A total of 88 patients medical record folder was reviewed, 50 nurses with structured questionnaire and a focused discussion was conducted with five concerned body. Data collected using a standard structured questionnaire and reviewed out-patient medical record folders were transferred into SPSS version 20 for further statistical analysis. Variables with a p-value of less than 0.05 at multiple logistic regression analysis were considered statistically significant factors for the utilization of selected variables of outpatient medical records. Results: The study revealed that 12% of the health workers had a good level of awareness on completeness of out-patient medical records, 0%HMIS training and, supervision, 24% completeness of out-patient medical records during base line assessment (Pre intervention). And the intervention has showed a significant improvement for the selected combed variables from 24% to 92%. Conclusion: As more than half of the health workers working at government health institutions of East Gojjam were poor health information users compared with the findings of others studies. HMIS training, data analysis skills, supervision, regular feedback, and favorable attitude were factors related to routine health information system utilization. Therefore, a comprehensive training, on HMIS and regular supportive supervision are highly recommended for improving medical record completeness in all governmental and privet health facilities.

description: Adjuvant chemotherapy regimens take months to complete. Despite this, studies evaluate chemotherapy adherence via measures assessed at the end of treatment (eg, number of patients missing any dose, relative dose intensity [RDI]). This approach ignores information like the timing of treatment delays. We propose longitudinal cumulative dose (LCD) to integrate impacts of dose reductions, missed doses and dose delays over time. We obtained data from the 2246 participants in the MOSAIC trial randomized to FOLFOX (all three agents) or 5-FU/LV (only 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin). We evaluated proportions of patients stopping treatment early and reducing, missing or delaying a dose in each arm for each chemotherapy agent at each cycle. We calculated LCD, the fraction of the final standard dose a participant reached by a given day, for each participant and each agent and compared it over time and at 24 weeks between treatment arms. Participants randomized to FOLFOX were more likely to stop treatment, reduce doses, miss doses or delay cycles; these differences increased over time. Median LCD for oxaliplatin in the FOLFOX arm at 24 weeks was 77%. The LCD for 5-fluorouracil differed between arms (FOLFOX arm median: 81%; 5-FU/LV arm median: 96%). Visualizing LCD highlighted the timing of deviations from standard administration in a way RDI could not, with major differences in 5-fluorouracil LCD across treatment arms beginning after the sixth dose. Further evaluation of LCD and its impacts on clinical outcomes may clarify mechanisms for heterogeneous patient outcomes.
