    BACKGROUND/AIMS: The study investigated the incidence of thromboembolic events (TEE) in head and neck (H&N) cancer patients who received concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with cisplatin, and analyzed the factors affecting TEE occurrence. METHODS: Two hundred and fifty-seven patients who started CCRT with cisplatin for H&N cancer from January 2005 to December 2019 were analyzed. RESULTS: TEE occurred in five patients, an incidence rate of 1.9%. The 2-, 4-, and 6-month cumulative incidences of TEE were 0.8%, 1.6%, and 1.9%, respectively. Khorana score was the only factor associated with TEE occurrence (p = 0.010). CONCLUSION: The incidence of TEE in H&N cancer patients who underwent CCRT with cisplatin was relatively low when compared to other types of cancer. However, patients with a high Khorana score require more careful surveillance for possible TEE occurrence

    Author Institution: Department of Chemistry and Steward Observatory, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721Pure rotational spectra of three transition-metal monosulfides, ScS, YS, and VS, have been recorded using Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy (FTWM) in the range 10-40 GHz. These molecules are all free radicals and have been synthesized in a mixture of H2_{2}S gas with metal vapor, obtained by laser ablation of a metal rod. In the case of ScS and VS, a discharge was necessary to successfully produce the molecules. For YS, the N=1\longrightarrow0, 2\longrightarrow1, 3\longrightarrow2 and 4\longrightarrow3 rotational transitions have been recorded. For ScS and VS, the N=1\longrightarrow0, N=2\longrightarrow1 and N=3\longrightarrow2 have been obtained. Vanadium, scandium and yttrium hyperfine structures were resolved for these species. Rotational, fine structure and hyperfine coupling constants have been determined for all three radicals. This works completes the high-resolution pure rotational measurements of 3d transition-metal monosulfides, and provides the most accurate values of the hyperfine parameters for these molecules to date. Bond lengths and spectroscopic parameters will be presented

    У статті розглядається повсякденне харчування шахтарських родин Донбасу у 1965 – 1985 роках. Автор акцентує увагу на особливих традиціях організації харчування у шахтарських родинах порівняно з іншими типами сімей. Дослідження базується на неопублікованих архівних документах, статистичних даних та матеріалах усної історії.В статье рассматривается повседневное питание шахтерских семей Донбасса в 1965 – 1985 годах. Автор акцентирует внимание на особенных традициях организации питания в шахтерских семьях по сравнению с другими типами семей. Исследование базируется на неопубликованных архивных документах, статисти- ческих данных и материалах устной истории.Questions of a food and consumption of foodstuffs are studied insufficiently carefully in modern historical science. But it’s one of the basic indicators of standard of well-being of the population. The author describes and characterizes the most popular and favorite dishes in miners’ families, and the traditions of behaviour at the table. In addition, the special attention is received to dependence of food from the standard of financial support of miners’ families, and also from specificity of a miner’s trade. The author also focuses attention on special traditions of meals in miners’ families as compared with other types of families, and notices negative tendencies in a daily food, such as regular use of alcoholic beverages. The research is based on the unpublished archive documents, the statistical data and materials of verbal history. The article is a part of more wider research devoted to daily life of miners’ families of Donbass in 1965 – 1985 ys
