Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ongoing evidence indicates increased risk of sarcopenic obesity among children and young people (CYP) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), often beginning early in treatment, persisting into survivorship. This review evaluates current literature on body composition in CYP with ALL during and after treatment.

Parent‐to‐Child Information Disclosure in Pediatric Oncology
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Despite professional consensus regarding the importance of open communication with pediatric cancer patients about their disease, actual practice patterns of disclosure are understudied. Extant literature suggests a significant proportion of children are not told about their diagnosis/prognosis, which is purported to negatively ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Cyclophosphamide (CY) is associated with potentially fatal cardiotoxicity, yet no electrocardiographic indices have been established for early detection of CY‐induced cardiomyopathy. This study aimed to determine whether corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation can predict early onset of CY‐related cardiac dysfunction in pediatric ...

Small area estimation in the case of nonesponse
Lietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, 2009 In this paper the effect of model and nonresponseadjustment on different types of estimators for the totals of small area domains is examined. The empirical results are based on Monte Carlo simulations with repeated samples drawn from a finite population

Development of adaptive sideslip angle estimator
Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2016 The sideslip angle is used to control a vehicle for safety, however, it is hard to estimate the sideslip angle. In many researches, the estimator needs many unattainable variables, such as yaw inertia or cornering stiffness, to estimate the sideslip ...
