All-Fiber Multiplexing and Transmission of High-Order Circularly Polarized Orbital Angular Momentum Modes With Mode Selective Couplers

IEEE Photonics Journal, 2019
We have demonstrated an all-fiber high-order circularly polarized (CP) orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes (de)multiplexing system based on second-order mode selective couplers (SMSCs). Such SMSCs combining standard single mode fiber and ring core fiber

Venetoclax‐Based Therapy as a Bridge to Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Relapsed or Refractory Pediatric Acute Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Relapsed and/or refractory (R/R) pediatric acute leukemia carries a dismal prognosis, largely driven by chemoresistance to conventional salvage therapy. The BH3‐mimetic venetoclax, combined with chemotherapy or hypomethylating agents, has demonstrated efficacy in small clinical trials.
