“…Those women in whom physicians or nurses took interest praised their practitioner highly as caring individuals "who did the best they could in a dif cult situation." The phenomenon of not telling/not asking has been noted in other studies of cancer patients and women in general practice (Allen, Gilchrist, Levinson, & Roter, 1993;Brewin, 1990;Montazeri, Milroy, Macbeth, McEwen, & Gillis, 1996;Roberts, Cox, Reintgen, Baile, & Gilbertini, 1994;Sardell & Trierweiler, 1993). Professional help discussed in these studies related to giving information about cancer and treatment options, assessing the effects of cancer on the woman and her family members, and discussing prognosis.…”

“…Researchers have suggested that a cancer diagnosis should be relayed with compassion, concern, truthfulness, matter-of-factness and, sincerity, and continuing support should be offered in the same manner (Brewin, 1990;Nylenna, 1985;Peteet, Abrahms, Ross, & Stearn, 1991). Cancer, for these women, was associated with death, loss, anxiety, fear, and helplessness despite early staging of disease (Creagan, 1993;Eardley, 1988;Kriesel, 1987); however, issues in communication with physicians were safely raised only when the treatment was complete, problems had disappeared, and dependence on the oncology system was less necessary.…”

Older Women With Breast Cancer: New Understandings Through Grounded Theory Research

Breast cancer incidence increases by decade of life, significantly affecting the lives and well-being of older women. In a critical analysis of three decades of quantitative and qualitative research literature. I found an indication that something changed over the course of time that allowed women to adjust to breast cancer and resolve emotional turmoil. However, it was not clear what was "adjusted," or what constituted the process that allowed women to restore meaning within illness. In this paper I discuss the benefits of using a grounded theory approach in the study of older women with breast cancer. A brief overview of the study is given for context. The main focus of this paper is on the contributions of grounded theory research to new understandings of the cancer experience for older women. Contrary to findings in the quantitative literature, this study raised awareness of several issues: the myth of burden in researching older women, willingness to participate in decision making around treatment, ageism, and positive collusion in communication with health professionals.

Abstract:The behaviour of pelletized reed canary grass (RCG) with selected feedstock and process parameters was studied for variation in springback characteristics based on axial changes after the compaction process. Experiments were carried out using a uniaxial single piston cylinder assembly with a proportional integral derivative temperature controller which was built in house for research purposes. A Multiple linear regression analysis based on moisture, temperature, pressure, hold time and their interaction terms was carried out to predict the length of pellets under compression in the die and excellent correlation were obtained. A finite difference method with over relaxation technique was successfully adopted to analyse the pressure and density distributions of biomass under compressive load. The compact geometry and friction between particles and die wall had effects on the pressure and density distributions in the compacted biomass. RCG pellets with lowest expansion were subjected to axial and diametrical compression tests. Bonding and failure analysis were carried out using scanning electron microscope which showed uneven breakage and interparticle voids.
