Due to improvements in short- and long-term clinical outcomes a study of quality of life is one of the most promising trends in oncology today. This review analyzes the published literature on problems dealing with quality of life of patients with gynecological cancer. Data on quality of life with respect to the extent of anticancer treatment as well as psychological and social aspects are presented. The relationship between quality of life and survival has been estimated.

Individuals with hypothyroidism suffer from symptoms including impairments to cognition (i.e., “brain fog”). Medication can help reduce symptoms of hypothyroidism; however, brain fog may hinder adherence. The aim of this study was to determine if memory impairment and cognitive failures are related to treatment nonadherence in 441 individuals with hypothyroidism. Participants with a diagnosis of hypothyroidism and currently prescribed a thyroid hormone replacement medication were placed in two groups according to adherence level and compared on validated scales assessing impairments to memory and cognition. Results indicated a significant association between treatment nonadherence and self-reported brain fog, represented by greater cognitive and memory impairments. Nonadherent individuals indicated impairments with prospective, retrospective, and short- and long-term memory; and more cognitive failures, compared to adherent individuals. Findings suggest the importance of interventions to enhance adherence for individuals with brain fog, such as encouraging the use of reminders.

We investigated the moderating effect of consumer confusion on the relationship between inertia and purchase intention. Customers (N = 166) were approached randomly with a request to complete our survey as they finished shopping at a convenience store in Taiwan in August 2014. The results revealed that the purchase intention behavior relied on consumer inertia, which increased when consumers were confused because they were less capable of making rational buying decisions when choosing between retailer brands in the marketplace. In a marketing campaign context, our findings show that substantial differentiation is crucial for convenience store chains to strengthen the belief system and behavioral routines of their customers, thereby helping the convenience stores to strengthen their brand image, build consumer trust, achieve a competitive advantage, and capture a greater share of the market in both the short and long term.

Short- and long-term comparison of the variations with time of whole blood lead and free erythrocyte porphyrins (FEP) suggests that changes in FEP are slow and predictable whereas blood lead changes are quite unpredictable. However, when FEP suggests a different clinical category from blood lead, the blood lead is likely to change in the direction predicted by the FEP. Comparison of FEP to blood lead at first contact in 349 children with mild elevation of blood lead reliably predicted which children would still have elevated blood lead six weeks later and which would fall or be normal. The observation of long-term follow-up in four groups of children with various combinations of FEP and blood lead indicated that the follow-up blood lead could be predicted to change in the direction indicated by the FEP measurement. The implications for screening for lead poisoning are discussed.

There is an established body of knowledge about technical aspects of sustainable buildings however little research conducted into the post-occupancy relationship between sustainable buildings and occupiers based on the ‘form vs function' argument (Reed & Bole 2009). There has been limited attention placed on the relationship between technological advances and how occupiers interact and behave with these buildings (Wener & Carmalt 2006). Therefore this is a preliminary study into differences (if any) between (a) the expectation of occupiers and (b) their actual experiences. The data was provided by a survey of occupiers/tenants of sustainable buildings in Melbourne, Australia in 2012. The findings demonstrated (a) occupants of sustainable buildings are primarily interested in their own personal comfort levels, (b) occupiers of 5 star sustainable buildings have the highest expectations of how their buildings operate however there also exists the largest gap between their expectations and actual experiences, and (c) the communication channels available to occupiers about the operation of their sustainable office building and how they address problems are very limited. There is an urgent need to ensure future efforts to incorporate sustainability into new and existing office buildings meet the needs of present and future occupiers without compromising short and long-term occupier satisfaction levels.

Abstract This paper is conducted to examine the relationship between the use of renewable energy and FDI in Indonesia. The data used in this study is secondary data that has been published by the World Bank and accessed in www.Data.worldbank.org. periode 2004-2019. The data analysis method used is the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) method. The results of the study found that the use of renewable energy in the short and long term has a positive effect on Indonesia’s economic growth. Meanwhile, the same thing is also shown from the FDI variable in the short term and long term which has a significant positive effect on economic growth and has a positive effect on economic growth. Finally, with this finding, it is concluded that both the short and long term the Indonesian government needs to make a breakthrough to explore renewable energy sources for economic growth.

Over nearly three decades, remittances are one of the most important sources of foreign currency in ensuring balance of payments, foreign currency reserves increase, stabilize exchange market and financial market in Vietnam. This paper uses the AutoregressiveDistributed Lag model (ARDL) to study the relationship between remittances and economic growth in Vietnam in 1990-2014. Results of Perasan’ test confirmed the existence of long-term relationship between remittances and economic growth in Vietnam. The results also provide evidence of the positive impact of remittances to economic growth both in the short and long term.

Long-term angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) resets pressure natriuresis and shifts the relationship between renal arterial pressure (RAP) and renal interstitial hydrostatic pressure (RIHP) to lower levels of arterial pressure. These effects persist after withdrawal of treatment. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of short- and long-term ACE inhibition on medullary blood flow (MBF). Enalapril (25 mg ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ day−1in drinking water) was given to male SHR from 4 to 14 wk of age. Four weeks after stopping treatment, we measured MBF over a wide range of RAP using laser-Doppler flowmetry in anesthetized rats. Additional rats, either untreated or previously treated for 10 wk, received 3-day enalapril treatment just before the experiment. MAP (mmHg ± SE) was 178 ± 6 ( n = 8), 134 ± 6 ( n = 8), 138 ± 5 ( n = 9), and 111 ± 6 mmHg ( n = 9) for the untreated, 3 day, 10 wk, and 10 wk + 3 day groups, respectively. Total renal blood flow for the groups receiving 3-day treatment was significantly higher when compared with that in rats with an intact renin-angiotensin system. Three-day treatment had no effect on the relationship between RAP and RIHP, whereas that in rats receiving 10-wk treatment was shifted to lower levels of RAP by ∼30 mmHg. Both 10-wk and 3-day treatment independently increased the slope of the RAP versus MBF relationship at values of RAP > 100 mmHg. The slopes in perfusion units/mmHg were 0.12 ± 0.01 ( n = 8), 0.26 ± 0.01 ( n = 8), 0.27 ± 0.01 ( n = 9), and 0.30 ± 0.02 ( n = 9) for the untreated, 3 day, 10 wk, and 10 wk + 3 day groups, respectively. These results indicate that the effect of short-term and the persistent effect of long-term enalapril alter renal medullary hemodynamics in a way that may contribute to the resetting of the pressure-natriuresis relationship in treated rats.
