Guidelines for Pediatric Radiotherapy Simulation: A Report From the Children's Oncology Group Radiation Oncology Discipline

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric radiation therapy presents unique challenges compared to adult treatments, including those of immobilization, potential need for sedation, and the critical importance of accurate, reproducible positioning. Additionally, heightened attention to imaging doses is necessary to minimize long‐term toxicity in survivors.

Global dynamics and optimal harvesting in a stochastic two-predators one-prey system with distributed delays and Lévy noise

Journal of Biological Dynamics, 2020
In this paper, we first investigate a stochastic two-predators one-prey model with Lévy noise and distributed delays. The global dynamical behaviour is discussed.

Health Literacy, Self‐Efficacy and Knowledge of Sickle Cell Disease Among Caregivers

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin leads to severe anaemia, painful crises and organ failure. Caregivers’ health literacy (HL) – their ability to assess, understand and apply information, and interact with healthcare professionals – is crucial for managing children with SCD, yet ...

Early Impact of Childhood Opportunity on Neurocognitive Outcomes in Sickle Cell Disease

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neurocognitive impairment is a well‐recognized complication of sickle cell disease (SCD) that begins early in childhood and persists across development. While cerebrovascular injury contributes substantially to risk, neurocognitive deficits are also observed in children without overt or silent cerebral infarctions, suggesting ...

Unsolved problem about stability of stochastic difference equations with continuous time and distributed delay

Modern Stochastics: Theory and Applications
Despite the fact that the theory of stability of continuous-time difference equations has a long history, is well developed and very popular in research, there is a simple and clearly formulated problem about the stability of stochastic difference ...

A Lyapunov functional for a system with both lumped and distributed delay

Archives of Control Sciences, 2017
In the paper construction of a Lyapunov functional for time delay system with both lumped and distributed delay is presented. The Lyapunov functional is determined by means of the Lyapunov matrix.

Delay-Resistant Geo-Distributed Analytics

IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management, 2022
Big data analytics platforms have played a critical role in the unprecedented success of data-driven applications. However, real-time and streaming data applications, and recent legislation, e.g., GDPR in Europe, have posed constraints on exchanging and analyzing data, especially personal data, across geographic regions.

Re‐Irradiation in Pediatric Diffuse Midline Glioma: A Multi‐Institutional Retrospective Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with recurrent diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs) have limited therapeutic options at recurrence. Re‐irradiation (RT2) may be used at progression, but with uncertainty about the benefit. Methods We conducted a multi‐institutional retrospective study of children aged < 18 with DMG treated at three centers (Toronto, Canada ...

Exploring Thermoelastic Effects in Damped Bresse Systems with Distributed Delay

Mathematics
In this work, we consider the one-dimensional thermoelastic Bresse system by addressing the aspects of nonlinear damping and distributed delay term acting on the first and the second equations.
