Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Malignant rhabdoid tumor of the kidney (MRTK) is a rare, aggressive tumor seen in young children. The optimal timing of resection for locally advanced tumors is not well‐defined. The purpose of this study is to evaluate modern oncologic outcomes and the impact of surgical timing. Methods A multicenter retrospective review was performed

High burden of antimicrobial drug resistance in Asia
Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2014 The rapid development of antimicrobial resistance among micro-organisms is a serious public health concern. Moreover, the dissemination of antibiotic-resistant bacteria makes this issue a global problem, and Asia is no exception. For example, since New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM)-producing Enterobacteriaceae were identified in India, further spread

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Patients with ovarian cancer often present with massive ascites, leading to significant protein loss during surgical procedures. Although cell‐free concentrated ascites reinfusion therapy (CART) is used in palliative settings to mitigate protein loss, its application in intraoperative settings remains unexplored.

High Tumor Mutational Burden in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
CureusHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of liver cancer and one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Tumor mutational burden (TMB) in a cancer specimen represents the number of mutations within a pre-determined length of genetic material. This value is increasingly investigated as it may correlate with both prognosis

Numerical Sensitivity and Efficiency in the Treatment of Epistemic and Aleatory Uncertainty [PDF]
, 2007 The treatment of both aleatory and epistemic uncertainty by recent methods often requires an high computational effort. In this abstract, we propose a numerical sampling method allowing to lighten the computational burden of treating the information by ...

Depth-based inference for functional data [PDF]
, 2006 We propose robust inference tools for functional data based on the notion of depth for curves. We extend the ideas of trimmed regions, contours and central regions to functions and study their structural properties and asymptotic behavior.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication in patients receiving maintenance dialysis, driven by calcium and phosphate metabolism disturbances. Calcimimetics are central to the management of SHPT by enhancing calcium‐sensing receptor sensitivity and reducing parathyroid hormone secretion.

Primary spontaneous pneumothorax due to high bleb burden
Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2016 Primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) occurs most frequently in young, tall, lean, male smokers without any known underlying lung disease. It is an important diagnosis to make promptly in order to prevent progression to obstructive shock. We present a case report of a young, male, former-smoker and polysubstance abuser with no prior lung history that ...

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Adult‐onset Still's disease (AOSD) complicated by macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) carries substantial mortality. The role of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) remains uncertain. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients with AOSD‐MAS treated with TPE at a single‐center.
