Pathogenic Germline PALB2 and RAD50 Variants in Patients With Relapsed Ewing Sarcoma
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Approximately 10% of patients with Ewing sarcoma (EwS) have pathogenic germline variants. Here, we report two cases: first, a novel germline pathogenic variant in partner and localizer of BRCA2 (PALB2) in a patient with a late EwS relapse. Its impact on homologous recombination is demonstrated, and breast cancer risk is discussed.

ADAPTIVE CLUSTER SAMPLING USING AUXILIARY VARIABLE [PDF]
Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, 2013 في هذه الدراسة، ندرس مقدري متوسط السكان في أخذ العينات العنقودية التكيفية باستخدام معلومات المتغير المساعد. المقدرون في هذه الدراسة هم مقدر النسبة الكلاسيكية، ومقدر النسبة باستخدام معامل التباين السكاني ومعامل تقشر المتغير المساعد، ومقدر الانحدار، ومقدر الفرق. أظهرت المحاكاة أن مقدر الفرق كان لديه أصغر خطأ متوسط مربع مقدر عند مقارنته بمقدر النسبة ومقدر
