Are seismic fragility curves fragile?

open access: yesProbabilistic Engineering Mechanics, 2021
Abstract A hypothetical seismic site is constructed for which the probability law of the seismic ground acceleration process X ( t ) is specified. Since the seismic hazard is known, the performance of the incremental dynamic analysis- (IDA) and multiple stripe analysis- (MSA) based fragilities, which are used extensively in Earthquake ...

Pathogenic Germline PALB2 and RAD50 Variants in Patients With Relapsed Ewing Sarcoma

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Approximately 10% of patients with Ewing sarcoma (EwS) have pathogenic germline variants. Here, we report two cases: first, a novel germline pathogenic variant in partner and localizer of BRCA2 (PALB2) in a patient with a late EwS relapse. Its impact on homologous recombination is demonstrated, and breast cancer risk is discussed.
