Under-5 mortality has decreased globally, but millions of children still die every year. In Bangladesh, respiratory infection and diarrheal disease remain leading causes of morbidity and mortality for children under-5, despite incredible progress in the past three decades. Immune system development begins in utero and continues into adulthood. Toxic environmental...
Objective: To examine the pricing trajectories in the United States of disease-modifying therapies (DMT) for multiple sclerosis (MS) over the last 20 years and assess the influences on rising prices.
Methods: We estimated the trend in annual drug costs for 9 DMTs using published drug pricing data from 1993 to...

The constituent materials of concrete often contain chlorides. The presence of chlorides in sufficient amounts can disrupt the passive layer, also known as the passive film, that protects the reinforcing steel in concrete. This disruption can lead to premature corrosion of the reinforcing steel in concrete. To minimize the risk...
Experiments were done to determine pathogenic variability
and pathogenic adaptation of Septoria tritici to different
wheat cultivars. Fifteen S. tritici isolates from
California, Oregon, and Texas were evaluated on seedlings of
two sets of geographically diverse wheat cultivars under
greenhouse conditions. Significant isolate effects, cultivar
effects, and isolate X cultivar...
The purpose of this qualitative study was to investigate
the thought processes of secondary level novice programmers
engaged in computer programming for the purpose of
generating hypotheses for consideration in future research
on the relationship between computer programming and problem
solving. A high school BASIC programming course with
