| Abstract | The burden of Central Nervous System (CNS) tumours is further compounded by the fact that they require highly specialised and skilled multidisciplinary care, including access to modern neuroimaging, neurosurgery, neuropathology and molecular biology, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, which may not be widely available in an integrated manner in large parts of low-middle income countries.1-2-3 Delay in diagnosis and initiation of treatment, the lack of systematic staging and standardised treatment all over the country and the limited access to high complexity medical centres could have a significant influence on outcomes in developing countries.4-5 In Argentina the incidence of paediatric CNS tumours is approximately 260 new cases (26 cases per million children) per year. Sixty two percent of them needed to migrate to high complexity medical centres for treatment between 2012-2019.6 About 50% of paediatric brain tumours were treated at "Prof. Dr. Juan P. Garrahan"; a premier reference centre for the care of high complexity child pathologies throughout Argentina. Here the healthcare organisation is based on progressive care with a hierarchy of interdisciplinary activity and an integrated approach supported by the highest technological development (such as 1·5 T Magnetic Resonance Imaging scanners and medical linear accelerators for radiotherapy treatment) and scientific-technical level of its human resources. Although overall survival of brain tumours has improved over the year... |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
