Studies of early fourth-millennium BC Britain have typically focused on the Early Neolithic sites Wessex and Orkney; what can investigation located in areas beyond these core regions add? The authors report excavations (2011–2019) at Dorstone Hill Herefordshire, which revealed a remarkable complex monuments: three long barrows constructed footprints timber buildings that had been deliberately b...

Tanzania continues to enjoy stability and growth in different sectors similar to other countries; however, some challenges persist in the health sector, especially in the area of cancer care. The current study aimed at reviewing social economic status (SES), as well as factors contributing to the increased burden of breast cancer (BC) in Tanzania. The current study reviewed different articles a...

Background: Breast Cancer (BC), the second leading cause of cancer mortality after lung cancer and varied across the world due to genetic and environmental factors. In this study, we evaluated the interaction between the polymorphisms in genes encoding enzymes of folate metabolism: methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), methionine synthesis reductase (MTR) with the BC prognostic factors. ...

The aim of this work was to investigate changes in molecular form and surface charge of black carbon (BC) due to longterm natural oxidation and to examine how climatic and soil factors affect BC oxidation. Black C was collected from 11 historical charcoal blast furnace sites with a geographic distribution from Quebec, Canada, to Georgia, USA, and compared to BC that was newly produced (new BC) ...

Amount, stability, and distribution of black carbon (BC) were studied at four sites of a large peatland (“Witzwil”) formerly used as a disposal for combustion residues from households to derive BC displacement rates in the profile. Possible artefacts from thermal oxidation with Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) on BC quantification of C-rich deposits were inferred by choosing three sites ...

breast cancer (bc) is considered as one of the most important causes of death worldwide. previous studies showed that apolipoprotein b mrna- editing catalytic polypeptide-like 3 (apobec3) gene deletion significantly increased the risk of bc risk in chinese and european women. the present study aimed to assess the possible impact of apobec3 deletion and the risk of bc in a sample of iranian popu...

background: breast cancer (bc) is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer after lung cancer. survival of bc patients is affected by intermediate events. this study was aimed to investigate the disease course of primary non-metastatic bc patients with first recurrence of the tumor (frt) as the intermediate event using the illness- death model. methods: this retrospective cohort study was condu...

background: the occurrence and the mortality related to breast cancer (bc) in iranian female population has increased over time. although there are many studies on bc and related risk factors, however, the epidemiological aspects of this melanoma in iranian females are uncertain. therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the relationship between demographical and clinical factors on the...
