Breaking new ground in a new year.

چکیده
Ultimately, we will look to the readership to suggest or even to post debate topics of their own choosing. Some degree of moderation will inevitably be necessary , but will be kept to a minimum. As full details of this new undertaking become available, they will be distributed in a press release and e-mailed to the 2000 or so registered users of the journal's Web site at www.current-oncology.com. Links from that parent site to the new site will be available soon, probably sometime in early February. We encourage all readers to register as soon as possible at www. current-oncology.com. Your username and password will be needed to access (and hopefully to contribute to) the Cancer Knowledge Network. Readers already registered at www.current-oncology.com will be able to select a new username for the new Web site. We look forward to releasing further details about this new initiative—indeed they will probably have reached you before this editorial appears in hard copy! As 2011 begins, Current Oncology is pleased to announce a new initiative dubbed our " Cancer Knowledge Network. " This will be a new Web site at which a number of ongoing debates will be hosted. Many issues are currently under discussion in the field of cancer medicine: new drugs and their uses ... treatment guidelines ... the value or otherwise of new tests and equipment. There are dozens more. Published manuscripts tend to fade in their topicality once in print. We hope that a site dedicated to focused debates will keep the relevant issues " topical " and will encourage ongoing contributions from interested parties be they clinicians, researchers, industry partners , or patients. Each debate will commence with an invited introductory statement or summary designed to promote discussion. Some of these debates—on, for example, " the right to die " or " the value or otherwise of psa as a screening tool " —will have both pro and con introductory summaries from experts in the field.

What Can We Learn from 21 Years of School Poisonings in New Zealand?
Background: Childhood poisoning is a significant international health concern. Very little is known about trends in exposures within schools and preschools. The objectives of this study were to investigate the data recorded by the New Zealand National Poisons Centre (NPC) on these types of exposures over a 21 year period (1989 to 2009) and to determine trends and propose strategies to reduce th...
متن کاملBreaking Gridlock in Health Policy?; Comment on “A New Synthesis”
Pierre-Gerlier Forest has put forward the case that we are on the brink of a revolution in health policy that will be the result of the interplay of five factors. I would not challenge any of them but would emphasize the need to address socio-economic health inequalities, which have the potential to become a major cost driver in a time of growing economic inequality. To Dr. Forest’s list, I wou...

New vacuum state and symmetry breaking in polariton system
The polariton system is studied by a concise approach using a simple model. A new ground state with negative energy is obtained and found to exhibit the symmetry breaking. PACS numbers: 71.36.+c, 11.30.Qc
متن کاملNew statistical measures of symmetry breaking in the ground state region of nuclei
2014 We define two statistical measures of symmetry breaking which take all the internal moments of the irreducible subspaces into account, and can be used in the ground state region of nuclei. We test their validity in an exactly solvable model. LE JOURNAL DE PHYSIQUE LETTRES TOME 38, ler JUILLET 1977,
متن کاملDesigning of a New Transformer Ground Differential Relay Based on Probabilistic Neural Network
Low- impedance transformer ground differential relay is a part of power transformer protection system that is employed for detecting the internal earth faults. This is a fast and sensitive relay, but during some external faults and inrush current conditions, may be exposed to maloperation due to current transformer (CT) saturation. In this paper, a new intelligent transformer ground differentia...
