TL;DR: Children with advanced cancer experience high symptom distress, and strategies to promote intensive symptom management are indicated, especially with disease progression or administration of intensive treatments.
Abstract: Purpose Thousands of children are living with advanced cancer; yet patient-reported outcomes (PROs) have rarely been used to describe their experiences. We aimed to describe symptom distress in 104 children age 2 years or older with advanced cancer enrolled onto the Pediatric Quality of Life and Evaluation of Symptoms Technology (PediQUEST) Study (multisite clinical trial evaluating an electronic PRO system). Methods Symptom data were collected using age- and respondent-adapted versions of the PediQUEST Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale (PQ-MSAS) at most once per week. Clinical and treatment data were obtained from medical records. Individual symptom scores were dichotomized into high/low distress. Determinants of PQ-MSAS scores were explored using linear mixed-effects models. Results During 9 months of follow-up, PQ-MSAS was administered 920 times: 459 times in teens (99% self-report), 249 times in children ages 7 to 12 years (96% child/parent report), and 212 times in those ages 2 to 6 years (parent rep...

TL;DR: Women’s time spent watching TV was associated positively with time in other sedentary behaviors and negatively with leisure-time physical activity, but no such associations were observed in men, suggesting TV viewing time may be a robust marker of a sedentary lifestyle in women but not in men.
Abstract: Background
Television (TV) viewing time is associated with abnormal glucose metabolism, the metabolic syndrome, and risk of type 2 diabetes; associations are stronger and more consistent in women. One explanation of this difference may be that TV viewing is a marker of an overall pattern of sedentary behavior in women.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effectiveness of current sustainability assessment methods (e.g., ecological footprint, wellbeing assessment, ecosystem health assessment, quality of life and natural resource availability) at the regional scale is evaluated using South East Queensland (SEQ) as a case study.

TL;DR: ConvKB as mentioned in this paper uses a convolutional neural network (CNN) to capture global relationships and transitional characteristics between entities and relations in a knowledge base, which can predict whether the triple is valid or not.
Abstract: In this paper, we propose a novel embedding model, named ConvKB, for knowledge base completion. Our model ConvKB advances state-of-the-art models by employing a convolutional neural network, so that it can capture global relationships and transitional characteristics between entities and relations in knowledge bases. In ConvKB, each triple (head entity, relation, tail entity) is represented as a 3-column matrix where each column vector represents a triple element. This 3-column matrix is then fed to a convolution layer where multiple filters are operated on the matrix to generate different feature maps. These feature maps are then concatenated into a single feature vector representing the input triple. The feature vector is multiplied with a weight vector via a dot product to return a score. This score is then used to predict whether the triple is valid or not. Experiments show that ConvKB achieves better link prediction performance than previous state-of-the-art embedding models on two benchmark datasets WN18RR and FB15k-237.

TL;DR: Findings indicate health gains for primary school students are difficult to assess, and will most likely occur if a well-designed program is implemented which links the curriculum with other health promoting school actions, contains substantial professional development for teachers and is underpinned by a theoretical model.
Abstract: School health programs have been part of schooling for most of this century. The health promoting school is a recently developed concept which seeks to provide a multifaceted approach to school health. Will it provide a better frame-work to assist schools address the health issues of their students? This paper examines the development of the health promoting school and identifies its structural components. It reviews the claims and evidence which have emerged from the school health research literature which focus on primary schools. Findings indicate health gains for primary school students are difficult to assess, and will most likely occur if a well-designed program is implemented which links the curriculum with other health promoting school actions, contains substantial professional development for teachers and is underpinned by a theoretical model. The paper concludes by discussing how improvements can be made in more accurately assessing the effectiveness of the health promoting primary school in improving school health.
