ABSTRACT Introduction Adolescent siblings of children with cancer are at elevated risk for psychosocial problems. Unfortunately, various barriers such as limited family time and resources, conflicting schedules, and psychosocial staffing constraints at cancer centers hinder sibling access to support.

ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Double–Double laminates for aerospace applications — Finding best laminates for given load sets
The Double–Double (DD) family of laminates is characterized by the parametric laminate description [±φ,±ψ]rT. DD promises considerable advantages for aerospace laminates, as the unique combination of the laminates’ building-block architecture simplifies ...

Adaptive Dynamics with Interaction Structure [PDF]
Evolutionary dynamics depend critically on a population's interaction structure-the pattern of which individuals interact with which others, depending on the state of the population and the environment. Previous research has shown, for example, that cooperative behaviors disfavored in well-mixed populations can be favored when interactions occur only ...

Implementing Health‐Related Quality of Life Assessment in Pediatric Oncology: A Feasibility Study
ABSTRACT Background There is growing interest in embedding health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) assessment and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) within clinical cancer care. This study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability, and usability of implementing an electronic PROM (ePROM) platform to measure HRQoL in children with cancer ...

Buckling of simply-supported rectangular Double–Double laminates
The family of Double–Double (DD) laminates is in focus of the present study. Well established buckling-cases for rectangular plates are examined in this article from a DD perspective. It is shown that the DD conventions allow for beneficial reformulation

Adaptive Building Envelope Structures
Climate changes which are increasing year by year are impacting not our environment but also our daily lives. One of the problems is the emission of greenhouse gases which are produced by householdings using heating fuel. Buildings in the Europe Union represents for 40% of energy consumption and 36% of greenhouse gas emissions.

Structured Decomposition of Adaptive Applications [PDF]
We describe an approach to automate certain high- level implementation decisions in a pervasive application, allowing them to be postponed until run time. Our system enables a model in which an application programmer can specify the behavior of an adaptive application as a set of open-ended decision points.
