Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...

A copula-based nonparametric measure of regression dependence [PDF]
, 2010 This paper presents a framework for comparing bivariate distributions according to their degree of regression dependence. We introduce the general concept of a regression dependence order (RDO).

Copula conditional tail expectation for multivariate financial risks
Arab Journal of Mathematical Sciences, 2018 Our goal in this paper is to propose an alternative risk measure which takes into account the fluctuations of losses and possible correlations between random variables.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.

The Risk of Individual Stocks’ Tail Dependence with the Market and Its Effect on Stock Returns
Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2015 Traditional beta is only a linear measure of overall market risk and places equal emphasis on upside and downside risks, but actually the latter is always much stronger probably due to the trading mechanism like short-sale constraints.

Dependence measures bounding the exploration bias for general measurements [PDF]
2017 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT), 2017 We propose a framework to analyze and quantify the bias in adaptive data analysis. It generalizes that proposed by Russo and Zou'15, applying to measurements whose moment generating function exists, measurements with a finite $p$-norm, and measurements in general Orlicz spaces. We introduce a new class of dependence measures which retain key properties

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is an essential therapy for several malignant and nonmalignant diseases, but relapse and graft loss remain the principal threats to its success. Routine monitoring of chimerism and minimal residual disease (MRD) enables early detection of imminent recurrence and guides ...
