Constructive Methods of Program Design [PDF]
, 1976 Correct programs cannot be obtained by attempts to test or to prove incorrect programs: the correctness of a program should be assured by the design procedure used to build it.

On the construction of handcuffed designs
Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 1974 AbstractA handcuffed design with parameters ν, k, λ consists of a set of ordered k-subsets of a v-set, called handcuffed blocks; in a block (a1, a2, ak) each element is assumed to be “handcuffed” to its neighbors. A block, therefore, contains k − 1 handcuffed pairs, the pairs being considered unordered.

Determining Parental Factors for Clinical Trial Attrition in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Despite high enrollment rates on Children's Oncology Group (COG) protocols, attrition after initial consent is challenging, introducing bias and prolonging trial completion. While adult oncology literature has identified predictors of withdrawal, little is known about caregiver decision‐making for child participation in ...

Constructal theory of pattern formation [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2007 This review article shows that the occurrence of macroscopic flow configuration is a universal natural phenomenon that can be explained and predicted on the basis of a principle of physics (the constructal law): "For a flow system to persist in time

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Thermal optimization of circular bodies submitted to an intense heat flux using constructal design
Vetor, 2010 The present work studies the optimization of a circular body with an intense heat flux by Constructal Design. The problem concerns the minimization of the global thermal resistance of a three-dimensional structure submitted to an intense uniform heat ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.
