Early Body Mass Index z‐Score Change and Resolution of Severe Malnutrition in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia in a Low‐Income Setting: A Prospective Single‐Arm Extension Study

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 ...

On characterizations of fixed points

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2001
We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of fixed points of a family of self mappings of a metric space and we establish an equivalent condition for the existence of fixed points of a continuous compact mapping of a metric space.

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.

New Results on Fixed Points and Coupled Fixed Points for α-Admissible Condensing Operators

Axioms
This paper introduces a novel class of condensing mappings through the concept of α-admissibility. We prove several extensions of Darbo’s fixed point theorem within this framework, including a generalized contractive condition and a coupled fixed point ...

Impact of Radiation Therapy on Physical and Psychosocial Health of Adolescents and Young Adults: A Joint Report From the Children's Oncology Group AYA and Radiation Oncology Committees

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.

Results on common fixed points

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2001
We establish common fixed point theorems related with families of self mappings on metric spaces. Our results extend, improve, and unify the results due to Fisher (1977, 1978, 1979, 1981, 1984), Jungck (1988), and Ohta and Nikaido (1994).

RESULTS ON FIXED POINTS

Demonstratio Mathematica, 1984
Let M be a metric space and \(T: M\to M\) a contractive mapping. It is known [\textit{M. Edelstein}, J. Lond. Math. Soc. 37, 74-79 (1962; Zbl 0113.165)] that if there is a point z in M such that a subsequence of \(\{T^ nz\}\) converges to y, then y is the unique fixed point of T, and \(\lim_{n\to \infty}T^ nz=y\).

Social Functioning Within the First Years After Pediatric Brain Tumor Diagnosis and the Relationship With Family Psychosocial Risk

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Survivors of pediatric brain tumors (PBTs) can experience long‐term social difficulties, impacting quality of life. Beyond medical and environmental factors, family psychosocial risk may play a role in social outcomes by shaping the caregiving environment and may provide intervention options.

Fixed Points in Functional Inequalities

Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2009
Using fixed point methods, we prove the generalized Hyers-Ulam stability of the following functional inequalities ‖f(x)+f(y)+f(z)‖≤‖f(x+y+z)‖ and ‖f(x)+f(y)+2f(z)‖≤‖2f((x+y)/2+z)‖ ...

The Impact of the COVID‐19 Pandemic on Childhood Cancer Survival: A Population‐Based Assessment of Survival Patterns Between 2015 and 2023 in Germany

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Numerous international studies have reported declines in new cancer diagnoses, delayed diagnoses and disruptions in cancer treatment following the implementation of COVID‐19 pandemic public health measures, raising concerns that these effects may ultimately contribute to increased cancer mortality.
