ABSTRACT The prevalence of patients with cancer increase every year. Tongue cancer is a type of malignancy of the tongue, and almost 95% is squamous cell carcinoma. Tongue cancer is a cancer with high progression with bad prognosis so that the mortality rate is very high and often causes discomfort. Comfort is the starting point of various healing that will be achieved by the client. Improvements in client conditions will not be achieved if the need of comfort is not fulfilled. In nursing care the problems that arise in tongue cancer are chronic pain, nutrient imbalance: less than body needs, and ineffective breathing patterns. Analysis of residency practice processes shows that comfort theory can be applied to patients with malignancy cases in nursing care, as it can identify patients' holistic discomfort from the physical, psychospiritual, sociocultural and environmental aspects.Keyword : Comfort Theory, Tongue Cancer

The manuscript analyzes the accuracy of our recently developed reciprocal polarizable embedding scheme, where a density functional theory model of the QM region is coupled to a dipole- and quadrupole polarizable water potential of the MM region. We present calculations of water clusters and liquid water where we analyze the energy, atomic forces and total polarization to demonstrate that artifacts in energy and polarization introduced by the QM/MM coupling are small and well-behaved. Furthermore, our methodology improves the consistency of the structure of optimized water hexamer geometries when compared to results obtained with models that neglect polarization. Additionally, the manuscript provides evidence that our coupling scheme eliminates artifacts in the structure of liquid water obtained with simpler electrostatic embedding models.
