Axiomatic characterization of the interval function of partial cubes and partial Hamming graphs

AKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics
Interval function of a graph is a well-known notion in metric graph theory and the axiomatic characterization using a set of first order axioms of different graph classes is an interesting problem in this area.

Venous Thromboembolism in Pediatric Bone Sarcoma Patients: A 10‐Year, Single‐Institution Experience Encompassing the COVID‐19 Pandemic

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Osteosarcoma (OS) and Ewing sarcoma (EWS) are the most common primary bone cancers in children, but acute thrombosis is poorly characterized in this population. Our study evaluated the rates of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and associated risk factors in pediatric patients with bone sarcomas treated over a 10‐year period encompassing
