“…BackgroundPrimary central nervous system germ cell tumors (CNS GCTs) are rare intracranial malignancies, and their tumor microenvironment plays a crucial role in tumor initiation and progression. However, the specific characteristics of the immune microenvironment and their clinical significance remain poorly understood.MethodsThis study included 93 paraffin-embedded tissue samples from 90 patients diagnosed with CNS GCTs. …”

Public Spending on Childcare as an Indicator of Gender Sensitivity of Budget by Ana Marija Sikirić, Josip Čičak

“…To determine the potential solutions to this situation the paper analyses correlation between public spending on childcare services, gender equality in terms of time spent in unpaid work and differences in employment rates of women with children under the age of 6 and women without children in EU. Results confirm significant positive correlation between specified variables and highlight the need to take into account different gender roles of men and women in the decision-making during the budgeting process in order to ensure equal opportunities to male and female labour force in the labour market as a precondition for greater gender equality.…”

Kinetic Studies of Atom Transfer Radical Polymerisations of Styrene and Chloromethylstyrene with Poly(3-hexyl thiophene) Macroinitiator by Nattawoot Rattanathamwat, Jatuphorn Wootthikanokkhan, Nonsee Nimitsiriwat, Chanchana Thanachayanont, Udom Asawapirom

“…Poly(3-hexyl thiophene)-b-poly(styrene-co-chloromethylstyrene) copolymers, to be used as a prepolymer for preparing donor-acceptor block copolymers for organic solar cells, have been synthesised by reacting P3HT macroinitiators with styrene and chloromethylstyrene via three types of atom transfer radical polymerisation (ATRP) systems, which are (1) a normal ATRP, (2) activators generated by electron transfer (AGET), and (3) a simultaneous reverse and normal initiation (SR&NI). The kinetics of these ATRP systems were studied as a function of monomers to the macroinitiator molar ratio. …”
