Time Toxicity in Wilms Tumor: Quantifying the Burden of Healthcare Interaction in the First Year After Diagnosis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Wilms tumor (WT) treatment imposes a significant time burden on patients and their families. Time toxicity is a patient‐centered metric that quantifies the burden of healthcare interaction. We sought to define time toxicity in the first year after diagnosis of WT and hypothesized that it would increase as tumor stage and treatment ...

Analysis of jamming effectiveness on miss distance

2014 22nd Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU), 2014
In this paper, with a view to neutralize the guided missile, effectiveness of jamming Electronic Attack (EA) technique, which is applied by helicopter platform, on miss distance is analyzed. The missile, which has infrared seeker and 3D PPN guidance model, is modeled as a point-mass.

Increased Risk of Sarcomas in Children With Congenital Anomalies: Findings From the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Registry Linkage Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Procedure We

Student ‘voices’ and course development: reading the signs on a distance course in educational technology [PDF]

, 2000
Learning occurs through processes of interaction with course components. A major part of the interaction will be between learner and instructional material, but tutors and co-learners will form part of the interactions that make up the whole.

Supporting Survivor‐Centered Care Through Digital Health Integration

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Survivors of childhood cancer face barriers to receiving guideline‐based, long‐term follow‐up care. Two digital tools, Passport for Care (PFC) and Cancer SurvivorLink (SurvivorLink), address complementary gaps by enabling tailored survivorship care plan (SCP) generation, updating, storage, and sharing.

Effective formulas for the Carath�odory distance

Manuscripta Mathematica, 1988
The authors are interested in computing the Carathéodory pseudodistance \(c_ G(0,z)\) from the center 0 of a balanced (i.e., complete circular) domain of holomorphy G in \({\mathbb{C}}^ n\) to a point \(z\in G\). When G is convex these distances are given by the well-known formula \[ c_ G(0,z)=\tanh^{-1} \inf \{\lambda >0:\quad z\in \lambda G\}, \] but
