description: Introduction Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a noninvasive non-obligate precursor of invasive breast cancer. With guideline concordant care (GCC), DCIS outcomes are at least as favourable as some other early stage cancer types such as prostate cancer, for which active surveillance (AS) is a standard of care option. However, AS has not yet been tested in relation to DCIS. The goal of the COMET (Comparison of Operative versus Monitoring and Endocrine Therapy) trial for low-risk DCIS is to gather evidence to help future patients consider the range of treatment choices for low-risk DCIS, from standard therapies to AS. The trial will determine whether there may be some women who do not substantially benefit from current GCC and who could thus be safely managed with AS. This protocol is version 5 (11 July 2018). Any future protocol amendments will be submitted to Quorum Centralised Institutional Review Board/local institutional review boards for approval via the sponsor of the study (Alliance Foundation Trials). Methods and analysis COMET is a phase III, randomised controlled clinical trial for patients with low-risk DCIS. The primary outcome is ipsilateral invasive breast cancer rate in women undergoing GCC compared with AS. Secondary objectives will be to compare surgical, oncological and patient-reported outcomes. Patients randomised to the GCC group will undergo surgery as well as radiotherapy when appropriate; those in the AS group will be monitored closely with surgery only on identification of invasive breast cancer. Patients in both the GCC and AS groups will have the option of endocrine therapy. The total planned accrual goal is 1200 patients. Ethics and dissemination The COMET trial will be subject to biannual formal review at the Alliance Foundation Data Safety Monitoring Board meetings. Interim analyses for futility/safety will be completed annually, with reporting following Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) guidelines for noninferiority trials.

description: The conformal structure of second order in $m$-dimensions together with the so-called (normal) conformal Cartan connection, is considered as a framework for gauge theories. The dressing field scheme presented in a previous work amounts to a decoupling of both the inversion and the Lorentz symmetries such that the residual gauge symmetry is the Weyl symmetry. On the one hand, it provides straightforwardly the Riemannian parametrization of the normal conformal Cartan connection and its curvature. On the other hand, it also provides the finite transformation laws under the Weyl rescaling of the various geometric objects involved. Subsequently, the dressing field method is shown to fit the BRS differential algebra treatment of infinitesimal gauge symmetry. The dressed ghost field encoding the residual Weyl symmetry is presented. The related so-called algebraic connection supplies relevant combinations found in the literature in the algebraic study of the Weyl anomaly.

description: Purpose To investigate the use of electronic patient-reported outcomes (PROs) to assess symptoms and how they can provide opportunities to clinicians to address symptoms in a timely manner to improve clinical care. As part of a larger study to evaluate whether providing standardized symptom reports to the medical team would decrease the time to treatment of reported symptoms in hematopoietic stem-cell transplant recipients, we assessed nurses’ and providers’ perceptions of electronic symptom reporting. Methods Semistructured interviews of RNs, MDs, NPs and PAs were conducted at an academic cancer center in the southeastern United States. Nurses’ and providers’ perceptions of electronic symptom reporting were explored. Interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed, and coded by two investigators to identify major themes. Results Fourteen RNs and seven providers (MDs, PAs, and NPs) participated in the interviews. Three main themes emerged from the interviews: electronic symptom reporting may improve assessment and care, integrating symptom reporting into nurse workflow presents difficulties, and there are barriers for completion of surveys. Conclusion The majority of nurses and providers believed that the inclusion of electronic symptom reporting in bone marrow transplantation inpatient units has the potential to improve care but that barriers to implementation remain.

description: We present a systematic downfolding many-body approach for extended systems. Many-body calculations operate on a simpler Hamiltonian which retains material-specific properties. The Hamiltonian is systematically improvable and allows one to dial, in principle, between the simplest model and the original Hamiltonian. As a by-product, pseudopotential errors are essentially eliminated using a frozen-core treatment. The computational cost of the many-body calculation is dramatically reduced without sacrificing accuracy. We use the auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo (AFQMC) method to solve the downfolded Hamiltonian. Excellent accuracy is achieved for a range of solids, including semiconductors, ionic insulators, and metals. We further test the method by determining the spin gap in NiO, a challenging prototypical material with strong electron correlation effects. This approach greatly extends the reach of general, ab initio many-body calculations in materials.

description: A desistência escolar é problema preocupante para as instituições de ensino, a sociedade, os formuladores de políticas educacionais e alunos. A identificação precoce dos alunos com alta probabilidade de evasão é essencial no estabelecimento de ações de prevenção do distúrbio. A investigação objetiva verificar a opção da utilização de algoritmo de Aprendizado de Máquina (AM) na identificação de alunos com maior risco de evasão. Por meio de ferramenta de Autoaprendizado de Máquina (AutoML), analisou-se os dados de 1.222 alunos de curso técnico de IEPT (Instituição de Educação Profissional e Tecnológica). Após o pré processamento dos dados, submeteu-se os dados purgados à ferramenta de Atol, e esta gerou modelo de algoritmo com acurácia superior a 90,0% quando da identificação de alunos com possibilidade de abandono. Os resultados do estudo demonstram a perspectiva favorável no uso da AM em dados educacionais.

description: Major gas-rich mergers of galaxies are expected to play an important role in triggering and fuelling luminous AGN. We present deep multi-band (u/r/z) imaging and long slit spectroscopy of four double-peaked [OIII] emitting AGN, a class of objects associated with either kcp-separated binary AGN or final stage major mergers, though AGN with complex narrow-line regions are known contaminants. Such objects are of interest since they represent the onset of AGN activity during the merger process. Three of the objects studied have been confirmed as major mergers using near-infrared imaging, one is a confirmed X-ray binary AGN. All AGN are luminous and have redshifts of 0.1 < z < 0.4. Deep r-band images show that a majority (3/4) of the sources have disturbed host morphologies and tidal features, while the remaining source is morphologically undisturbed down to low surface brightness limits. The lack of morphological disturbances in this galaxy despite the fact that is is a close binary AGN suggests that the merger of a binary black hole can take longer than ~1 Gyr. The narrow line regions (NLRs) have large sizes (10 kpc < r < 100 kpc) and consist of compact clumps with considerable relative velocities (~ 200-650 km/s). We detect broad, predominantly blue, wings with velocities up to ~1500 km/s in [OIII], indicative of powerful outflows. The outflows are compact (<5 kpc) and co-spatial with nuclear regions showing considerable reddening, consistent with enhanced star formation. One source shows an offset between gas and stellar kinematics, consistent with either a bipolar flow or a counter-rotating gas disk. We are not able to unambiguously identify the sources as binary AGN using our data, X-ray or radio data is required for an unambiguous identification. However, the data still yield interesting results for merger triggering of AGN and time-scales of binary black hole mergers.

description: We show that additional features can emerge in the linear absorption spectra of homonuclear diatomic molecules when the ions are described quantum mechanically. In particular, the widths and energies of the peaks in the optical spectra change with the initial configuration, mass, and charge of the molecule. We introduce a model that can describe these features and we provide a quantitative analysis of the resulting peak energy shifts and width broadenings as a function of the mass.

description: The purpose of this systematic literature review was to identify clinical trials of MDS and AML that included patient-reported outcome (PRO) instruments, and to summarize the symptom and other health related quality of life (HRQOL) concepts most frequently assessed and the PRO instruments that were used. Sixteen manuscripts describing 14 distinct trials met all criteria (i.e., phase 2 or 3 clinical trial for MDS or AML which included PRO assessment) and were published between 1996-2017. In trials evaluating anemia, PRO scores showed significant improvement in relevant domains (e.g. fatigue, function) among patients identified as responders. In trials evaluating the impact of anti-cancer therapies, improvements the baseline to end of treatment were observed in physical functioning and HRQOL, however the rates of missing data in many of the trials was high or unreported. PRO instruments have the ability to capture changes over time in patients’ function and well-being, and PRO instruments and guidance documents are available to support the assessment of HRQOL in AML/MDS clinical trials.

description: Introduction: To address the increasing prevalence of childhood obesity NHS England has established 21 Complications of Excess Weight (CEW) services. Despite physical activity (PA) and exercise forming cornerstones of successful weight management programmes CEW services do not include specialists in the delivery of PA or exercise. Aim: To assess the feasibility of embedding an mHealth supported PA and exercise intervention, led by an exercise specialist, to a CEW service. Methods: A 12-week feasibility, parallel group, randomised control trial was conducted in 23 obese adolescents receiving care from the Alder Hey Children’s Hospital (AHCH) CEW service. Participants randomised to usual care continued with the CEW service and the MOTIVATE-CEW group received usual care alongside an mHealth supported exercise and PA intervention. A process evaluation assessed reach, dose and fidelity and preliminary effectiveness was measured (health related quality of life (HRQOL), body composition and cardiovascular disease risk factors). Results: 45% of eligible participants were recruited and 87% completed post-intervention assessments. Recruited participants shared similar demographics to the AHCH CEW service cohort in terms of age, sex and deprivation. Large effect sizes favouring MOTIVATE-CEW were shown for device derived number of exercise session (d=1.02) and mean time spent exercising (d= 0.97). Data availability for in-clinic outcomes was good (≥85%), but adherence to wear time criteria for PA (GENEActiv 43%, ActivPAL 41%) and flash glucose (35%) monitors was poor. Conclusion: The MOTIVATE-CEW intervention showed promising effects on exercise behaviour. Good reach and data availability suggests the study design could be feasible within future trials.

description: Nesse editorial, apresentamos os artigos selecionados que atendem à proposta do dossiê “Recomposição de Aprendizagens” para o presente volume da Revista Interacções- número especial. Recebemos um grande número de colaborações e o que nos levou a dividi-los em dois editoriais. Este é o editorial 1, em são apresesentados 14 artigos. No editorial 2, que será publicado na sequência, reúne mais 11 artigos, concluindo as publicações desse dossiê. O cenário educacional ressentiu-se grandemente por conta dos efeitos da pandemia. Houve variados desdobramentos que se transformaram em práticas e reflexões teóricas, para as quais as soluções foram buscadas, tanto pautadas em novos recursos bem como naqueles já conhecidos, porém ressignificados. Nessa perspectiva, esse número da revista Interacções reune uma diversidade de contribuições de autores que passaram por experiências, que se propagam no presente, na forma de projetos de melhorias, com ajustes e revisões, perpassando diferentes níveis das práticas educacionais. Para exemplificar esse universo reflexivo e de práticas, emergiram conceitos como: Recomposição de Aprendizagens, Priorização Curricular e Renovação de práticas metodológicas e de gestão, entre outros, vistos como desafios aos educadores na atualidade. Assim, não foi à toa que nesse número conseguimos reunir ricas contribuições que se distinguem numa linha do tempo histórico, mas que orientam trajetos atuais com movimentos de mudanças, não só no âmbito didático metodológico, bem como na dimensão da gestão e formação de professores.

description: Ultrafast magnetization dynamics in metallic heterostructures consists of a combination of local demagnetization in the ferromagnetic constituent and spin-dependent transport contributions within and in between the constituents. Separation of these local and non-local contributions is essential to obtain microscopic understanding and for potential applications of the underlying microscopic processes. By comparing the ultrafast changes of the polarization rotation and ellipticity in the magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) we observe a time-dependent magnetization profile M(z,t) in Co/Cu(001) films by exploiting the effective depth sensitivity of the method. By analyzing the spatio-temporal correlation of these profiles we find that on time scales before hot electron thermalization (<100 fs) the transient magnetization of Co films is governed by spin-dependent transport effects, while after hot electron thermalization (>200 fs) local spin-flip processes dominate.

description: O Ensino Remoto Emergencial (ERE) se tornou uma realidade para grande parte dos estudantes do Distrito Federal (DF)/Brasil e se estendeu até o fim do 1º semestre letivo de 2021, quando teve início no DF o retorno, gradativo e com ressalvas, ao ensino e aprendizagem na modalidade presencial, o qual em nossa avaliação causou um impacto significativo nas relações em sala de aula e na mediação da aprendizagem. Somado a isso, percebe-se que a convivência baseada no respeito e na solidariedade tem sido algo cada vez mais desafiador em nossa sociedade, pois os interesses coletivos vêm sendo substituídos gradativamente por padrões individualistas, sendo agravado após o período de isolamento em função da pandemia causada pelo Coronavírus. Este artigo propõe-se a narrar, a partir de um relato de experiência, oficinas pedagógicas ancoradas na Educação em e para Direitos Humanos, bem como na construção da cultura de paz. As oficinas foram realizadas no âmbito de uma escola pública de Anos Finais, do Ensino Fundamental da Secretaria de Educação do Distrito Federal ao longo do 1º semestre letivo de 2022 e se deu pelo Serviço de Orientação Educacional e a Equipe especializada de Apoio à Aprendizagem no intuito de promover na escola um espaço propício para a convergência das singularidades, com respeito, sem violência e intolerâncias (sejam elas: racial, de gênero, religiosa ou de qualquer outro âmbito), atendendo a solicitação dos professores diante da dificuldade de resolver os diversos conflitos em sala de aula. O trabalho evidenciou a necessidade de se estabelecer canais dialógicos entre professores e alunos, manutenção de espaços de escuta aos discentes e uso de estratégias e atividades contextualizadas.

description: Purpose Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms pose a significant burden to patients receiving chemoradiation therapy (CRT) for anal cancer; however, the impact of symptoms from the patient perspective has not been quantified. This retrospective study examined and compared patient and clinician reports of acute GI toxicity during CRT. Materials and methods Patients treated with definitive RT using intensity-modulated radiation therapy for anal cancer between 9/09 and 11/12 were reviewed. Median RT dose was 56 Gy (range 45–56), and 76 patients (97%) received concurrent 5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy. During RT, patients completed the 7-item Bowel Problem Scale (BPS) weekly. Clinicians assessed toxicity separately using CTCAE v. 3.0. Scores of BPS C 3 and CTCAE C 1 were considered to be clinically meaningful. Agreement of the two assessments was evaluated by Cohen’s kappa coefficient. Results Seventy-eight patients completed at least one BPS and had a corresponding clinician assessment. Patients reporting scores of C3 was highest at week 5 (n = 68) for diarrhea (44.1%), proctitis (57.4%), and mucus (48.4%), while urgency (47.6%), tenesmus (31.7%), and cramping (27%) were highest at week 4 (n = 63). Baseline bleeding scores (26.7%; score C3) improved during treatment (13.4% at week 5). ‘‘Poor’’ agreement was observed between patient- and clinician-reported proctitis (Cohen’s k = 0.11; n = 58); however, there was ‘‘good’’ agreement for diarrhea (Cohen’s k = 0.68; n = 58). Conclusions Acute GI toxicity during definitive CRT for anal cancer was most significant during weeks 4–5, while rectal bleeding improved during treatment. Discrepancies in patient- and clinician-reported symptoms demonstrate the potential for patient-reported outcomes to be useful tools for anal cancer clinical assessments.

description: To identify patient characteristics associated with sleep disturbance and worsening of sleep in individuals diagnosed with localized colorectal cancer and assess heterogeneity in these relationships. Methods: Data were from the MY-Health study, a community-based observational study of adults diagnosed with cancer. Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System® Sleep Disturbance, Anxiety, Depression, Fatigue, and Pain Interference measures were administered. Participants self-reported demographics, comorbidities, and treatment information. Regression mixture and multiple regression models were used to evaluate the relationship between sleep disturbance and patient characteristics cross-sectionally at an average of 10 months after diagnosis (n = 613) as well as change in sleep disturbance over a 6-month period (n = 361). Results: Pain, anxiety, fatigue, and the existence of multiple comorbid conditions had statistically significant relationships with sleep disturbance (B = 0.09, 0.22, 0.29, and 1.53, respectively; P < 0.05). Retirement (B = -2.49) was associated with sleep quality in the cross-sectional model. Worsening anxiety (B = 0.14) and fatigue (B = 0.20) were associated with worsening sleep disturbance, and more severe sleep disturbance 10 months after diagnosis (B = -0.21) was associated with improvement in sleep quality after diagnosis (P < 0.05). No evidence of latent subgroups of patients (heterogeneity) was present. Conclusions: Pain, anxiety, fatigue, employment, and comorbid conditions were associated with sleep disturbance, but regression coefficients were small (< |2.5|). Results suggest that screening for anxiety, depression, fatigue, or pain is not sufficient for identifying sleep disturbance. Given the negative consequences of sleep disturbance, sleep disturbance screening may be warranted.

description: O processo de ensino-aprendizagem requer posturas autorreflexivas e conscientes, considerando os pressupostos teórico-práticos que embasam a práxis docente, a fim de [re]pensar ações que dinamizem e consolidem tal processo. Ela deve considerar também a centralidade dos estudantes em sua aprendizagem. Diante disso, este trabalho objetiva analisar os reflexos das inovações pedagógicas na ação docente e no protagonismo dos estudantes, a partir da aplicação de uma Sequência Didática (SD), mediada pela Problem Based Learning (PBL). Para tanto, metodologicamente adotou-se uma abordagem qualitativa de natureza aplicada, com fins exploratórios baseado em Prodanov e Freitas (2013). Quanto ao procedimento técnico da pesquisa, utilizou-se a técnica survey aplicada junto à docente [aplicadora da SD] e aos estudantes da 1.ª série do Ensino Médio da ECIT Seráfico Nóbrega, São Mamede-PB. Os dados foram analisados em diálogo com Freire (2005), Zabala (1998), Tardif (2014), Castro (2015), e Silva et al. (2016). A partir dos achados, inferese que a SD foi construída em alinhamento com referências para a atuação docente consideradas pertinentes para uma práxis mais assertiva e delimitada, com avaliação positiva da utilização inédita da PBL por parte da docente.

description: Magnetic reconnection is an important physical process in various explosive phenomena in the universe. In the previous studies, it was found that fast re- connection takes place when the thickness of a current sheet becomes on the order of a microscopic length such as the ion larmor radius or the ion inertial length. In this study, we investigated the pinching process of a current sheet by the Lorentz force in a low-β plasma using one-dimensional magnetohydrodynam- ics (MHD) simulations. It is known that there is an exact self-similar solution for this problem that neglects gas pressure. We compared the non-linear MHD dynamics with the analytic self-similar solution. From the MHD simulations, we found that with the gas pressure included the implosion process deviates from the analytic self-similar solution as t {\rightarrow} t 0, where t 0 is the explosion time when the thickness of a current sheet of the analytic solution becomes 0. We also found a pair of MHD fast-mode shocks are generated and propagate after the formation of the pinched current sheet as t {\rightarrow} t 0 . On the basis of the Rankine-Hugoniot relations, we derived the scaling law of the physical quantities with respect to the initial plasma beta in the pinched current sheet. Our study could help us to estimate the physical quantities in the pinched current sheet formed in a low-\b{eta} plasma.

description: Purpose The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between exercise and sleep disturbance in a sample of individuals diagnosed with stage I, II, and III colorectal cancer (CRC) as patients transitioned off first-line treatment. We also sought to identify heterogeneity in the relationship between sleep disturbance and exercise. Methods Data were obtained from the MY-Health study, a community-based observational study of adults diagnosed with cancer. Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System® (PROMIS) measures (e.g., PROMIS Sleep) were administered, and participants self-reported demographics, comorbidities, cancer treatment, and exercise. Regression mixture and multiple regression models were used to evaluate the relationship between sleep disturbance and exercise cross-sectionally at an average of 10 months after diagnosis, and the change in sleep disturbance over a 7-month period, from approximately 10 to 17 months post-diagnosis. Results Patients whose exercise was categorized as likely at or above American College of Sports Medicine’s guidelines did not report statistically better sleep quality compared to patients who were classified as not active. However, retirement (B = − 2.4), anxiety (B = 0.21), and fatigue (B = 0.24) had statistically significant relationships with sleep disturbance (p < 0.05). Increase in exercise was not significantly associated with a decrease in sleep disturbance. No statistical heterogeneity was revealed in the relationship between sleep and exercise. Conclusions Further prospective research using an objective measure of exercise is warranted to confirm or refute the nature of the relationship between exercise and sleep disturbance in individuals diagnosed with CRC transitioning off first-line treatment.

description: O presente artigo busca refletir sobre como o contexto após suspensão das aulas presenciais por causa da COVID-19 foi significado por instituições de ensino e profissionais da educação. Para tanto, enfocam-se questões levantadas a partir da análise de narrativas orais e pictóricas de estudantes dos Anos Iniciais do Ensino Fundamental de uma escola pública brasileira, produzidas no diálogo com suas professoras e colegas. Também são descritas falas de professores/as e gestores atuantes na escola pesquisada. Os instrumentos de coleta de dados da pesquisa utilizados foram a produção de desenhos seguida de debates coletivos, com as crianças, e entrevistas com os profissionais (professores e gestores) sendo os dados obtidos analisados com inspiração nos pressupostos da Análise de Conteúdo de Laurence Bardin (2011), e de referenciais teóricos tais como Lave (1991, 2013, 2015) e Vygotsky (1991). A pesquisa permitiu constatar a urgência de se atentar aos sentidos atribuídos pelas crianças e seus professores às mudanças educacionais e sociais vivenciadas no contexto de pandemia e de pós-pandemia. Suas narrativas indicam a premência de se (re)pensar a cultura escolar e a lógica que tem regido os processos de escolarização, levando-se em conta, crítica e reflexivamente, as questões, desafios e impasses pedagógicos, relacionais etc. com os quais essa instituição e seus atores têm sido levados a se deparar no decorrer dos últimos anos, especialmente. A concretização da escola como instituição democrática e do acesso ao direito à educação por parte dessas crianças dependem disso.

description: Este trabalho apresenta o relato de uma experiência de gamificação realizada com estudantes calouros de um curso superior de licenciatura, na modalidade a distância, em uma instituição privada brasileira. A experiência foi motivada pelo objetivo de se combater a evasão no 1º ano de curso, um problema crônico no ensino superior. A experiência gamificada desenvolvida, versão piloto, visa facilitar a ambientação dos alunos no curso, em especial na sua relação com o Ambiente Virtual de Aprendizagem. Os resultados indicam que empregar recursos de gamificação e partir de ferramentas familiares aos estudantes, como o WhatsApp e o Google Forms, pode ser uma estratégia proveitosa para produzir engajamento e diminuir a evasão de estudantes calouros.

description: Purpose To describe the prevalence, severity, and risk factors of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) and its impact on function and quality of life (QOL) among women treated for breast cancer in a large U.S. Community Oncology practice. Methods Women previously treated with taxane-based chemotherapy for early-stage breast cancer completed the EORTC QLQ–C30, QLQ–BR23, and QLQ–CIPN20. Subscales are scored 0–100; higher scores indicate greater symptom severity. Pre-specified hypotheses were tested. Results 126 women with mean age 56.7 years (SD 11.8) were stage I–II (79.4%) or stage III (20.6%) at the time of the survey; 65.1% were White and 27.8% were Black or African American. The mean time since last taxane chemotherapy cycle was 144.9 weeks (SD 112.9). 73.0% reported having CIPN. QLQ–CIPN20 mean scores for the sensory, motor, and autonomic subscales were 18.9 (SD 23.1), 18.6 (SD 18.7), and 17.1 (SD 21.8), respectively. CIPN symptom severity was negatively correlated with global health status/QOL and physical and role functioning (range of r = -0.46 to -0.72). It was not associated with age, body mass index, diabetes, or cumulative taxane dosage, but was greater for Black or African American women (e.g., sensory, p<0.002). CIPN sensory impairment was marginally greater for patients treated with paclitaxel compared to docetaxel (p<0.064). Conclusions CIPN was prevalent in this community oncology practice and significantly impacts function and QOL. These data highlight the importance of developing methods to mitigate CIPN, and for screening for CIPN particularly among Black or African American women.

description: Purpose: In response to the increasing cancer burden in Kenya, this study identified barriers to patients seeking access to cancer testing and treatment and to clinicians in delivering these services. Policy recommendations based on findings are presented. Methods: This qualitative study used semistructured key informant interviews. Purposive sampling was used to recruit 14 participants: seven oncology clinicians and seven support and advocacy leaders for patients with cancer. Qualitative analysis was used to identify themes. Results: Seven barriers to cancer testing and treatment were identified: high cost of testing and treatment, low level of knowledge about cancer among population and clinicians, poor health-seeking behaviors among population, long distances to access diagnostic and treatment services, lack of decentralized diagnostic and treatment facilities, poor communication, and lack of better cancer policy development and implementation. Conclusion: Kenyans seeking cancer services face significant barriers that result in late presentation, misdiagnosis, interrupted treatment, stigma, and fear. Four policy recommendations to improve access for patients with cancer are (1) improve health insurance for patients with cancer; (2) establish testing and treatment facilities in all counties; (3) acquire diagnosis and treatment equipment and train health personnel to screen, diagnose, and treat cancer; and (4) increase public health awareness and education about cancer to improve diagnoses and treatment. Effective cancer testing and treatment options can be developed to address cancer in a resource-constrained environment like Kenya. An in-depth look at effective interventions and policies being implemented in countries facing similar challenges would provide valuable lessons to Kenya’s health sector and policymakers.
