Barriers to and facilitators of implementing colorectal cancer screening evidence-based interventions in federally qualified health centers: a qualitative study

Abstract Background There is an urgent need to increase colorectal cancer screening (CRCS) uptake in Texas federally qualified health centers (FQHCs), which serve a predominantly vulnerable population with high demands.Empirical support exists for evidence-based interventions (EBIs) that are proven to increase CRCS; however, as with screening, thei

Impact of ion temperature anisotropy on 2D edge-plasma transport

A model of ion temperature anisotropy for 2D plasma transport in the scrape-off layer (SOL) of tokamaks is described and implemented in the UEDGE fluid transport code.Two ion energy equations are click here used to describe the evolution of the separate parallel and perpendicular ion temperatures.The temperature anisotropy generates viscous forces

Polyketide stereocontrol: a study in chemical biology

The biosynthesis of reduced polyketides in bacteria by modular polyketide synthases (PKSs) proceeds with exquisite stereocontrol.As the stereochemistry is intimately linked to the strong bioactivity of these molecules, the origins of stereochemical control click here are of significant interest in attempts to create derivatives of these compounds b
