A Quality Improvement Initiative to Standardize Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia Prophylaxis in Pediatric Patients With Solid Tumors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with extracranial solid tumors (ST) receiving chemotherapy are at an increased risk for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). However, evidence guiding prophylaxis practices in this population is limited. A PJP‐related fatality at our institution highlighted inconsistent prescribing approaches and concerns about

NUMERICAL CONSIDERATIONS ON THE MODELING OF SOURCE AND BOUNDARY CONDITIONS FOR THE FREQUENCY DOMAIN VISCO-ACOUSTIC WAVE EQUATION SOLUTION

CT&F Ciencia, Tecnología & Futuro
Seismic modeling is an important step in the process used for imaging Earth subsurface. Current applications require accurate models associated with solutions of the wave propagation equation in real media.

Spatial modeling of extreme snow depth

, 2011
The spatial modeling of extreme snow is important for adequate risk management in Alpine and high altitude countries. A natural approach to such modeling is through the theory of max-stable processes, an infinite-dimensional extension of multivariate ...

Changes in Body Composition in Children and Young People Undergoing Treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ongoing evidence indicates increased risk of sarcopenic obesity among children and young people (CYP) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), often beginning early in treatment, persisting into survivorship. This review evaluates current literature on body composition in CYP with ALL during and after treatment.

Advancing Biomechanical Simulations: A Novel Pseudo-Rigid-Body Model for Flexible Beam Analysis

Biomechanics
This paper explores the adaptation of pseudo-rigid-body models (PRBMs) for simulating large geometric nonlinear deflections in passive exoskeletons, expanding upon their traditional application in small compliant systems.

Predicting Chronicity in Children and Adolescents With Newly Diagnosed Immune Thrombocytopenia at the Timepoint of Diagnosis Using Machine Learning‐Based Approaches

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To identify predictors of chronic ITP (cITP) and to develop a model based on several machine learning (ML) methods to estimate the individual risk of chronicity at the timepoint of diagnosis. Methods We analyzed a longitudinal cohort of 944 children enrolled in the Intercontinental Cooperative immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) Study ...

Untenable nonstationarity: An assessment of the fitness for purpose of trend tests in hydrology [PDF]

, 2018
The detection and attribution of long-term patterns in hydrological time series have been important research topics for decades. A significant portion of the literature regards such patterns as ‘deterministic components’ or ‘trends’ even though the ...

Prognostic Impact of Treatment Modalities, Including Targeted Compartmental Radio‐Immunotherapy, in a Cohort of Neuroblastoma Patients With CNS Metastases at Relapse

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neuroblastoma (NB) with central nervous system (CNS) metastases is rare at diagnosis, but occurs more often during relapse/progression. Patients with CNS metastases face a dismal prognosis, with no standardized curative treatment available.

Predictive Framework for Lithium Plating Risk in Fast-Charging Lithium-Ion Batteries: Linking Kinetics, Thermal Activation, and Energy Loss

Batteries
Fast charging accelerates lithium-ion battery operation but increases the risk of lithium (Li) plating—a process that undermines efficiency, longevity, and safety. Here, we introduce a predictive modeling framework that captures the onset and severity of
