    Abstract We consider functions from the real numbers to the real numbers, output by a neural network with 1 hidden activation layer, arbitrary width, and ReLU activation function. We assume that the parameters of the neural network are chosen uniformly at random with respect to various probability distributions, and compute the expected distribution of the points of non-linearity. We use these results to explain why the network may be biased towards outputting functions with simpler geometry, and why certain functions with low information-theoretic complexity are nonetheless hard for a neural network to approximate.

    Abstract The demand for palliative care for terminally ill patients is rising globally. This review examines the potential of health worker education to enhance palliative care in Africa. A search of PubMed yielded 32 relevant articles published in English from 2013 to 2023 focused on African countries with WHO-categorized palliative care development and health care worker training. The findings underscore the pivotal role of health care worker education in elevating palliative care standards. Targeted initiatives equip health care workers with vital skills in pain management, symptom control, and communication. The integration of palliative care into public health systems is important for the sustainability of end-of-life care for terminally ill patients in Africa and around the world.

    Abstract Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide. The incidence of CRC is rising in low- and middle-income countries but decreasing in high-income countries due to the widespread use of surveillance colonoscopy. In Africa, the implementation of screening programs remains a challenge, even in countries, such as Ghana that have established CRC screening guidelines.
    Objective: The purpose of this review was to identify the barriers and recommend strategies for implementing CRC screening in African countries.
    Methods: A literature search using PubMed was conducted with the following search terms: colorectal neoplasm, early detection of cancer, mass screening, colonoscopy, faecal occult blood test, faecal immunochemical test (FIT) and Africa. After inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied, a total of 13 articles were reviewed.
    Results: The most common barriers reported were limited endoscopic capacity, poor knowledge of CRC and CRC screening, health care factors, cultural factors and sociodemographic factors. Recommendations to increase the availability of CRC screening tests were to include the use of FITs, to provide more training for health care providers, and to expand educational programs for patients, physicians, and religious/community leaders.
    Conclusion: The primary barrier to screening for CRC in Africa is the limited endoscopic capacity, specifically the lack of infrastructure and trained personnel, which requires systematic changes by governing bodies. In addition, health care professionals should be involved in educating patients about CRC and CRC screening. Further research is needed to clarify the factors related to subtypes of CRC and to explore the feasibility of using FITs in Africa.
