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 ...

Global Sensitivity Analysis Method Based on Support Vector Machine

Hangkong gongcheng jinzhan, 2018
Aiming at the difficulties of implicit limit state function and high-computational cost in structural sensitivity analysis, a new method is proposed for structural global sensitivity analysis which is based on support vector machine(SVM) method and Monte

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.

Importance Measure for Fuzzy Structural Systems from the Probabilistic Perspective and Its Solving Algorithms

Applied Sciences
To effectively determine the influences of fuzzy uncertainties on structural systems in engineering, according to the fuzzy failure probability (FFP) model, which is based on the probabilistic perspective, the importance measure (IM) technique is ...

Limitations of Resting-State Functional MR Imaging in the Setting of Focal Brain Lesions [PDF]

Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2017
Methods of image acquisition and analysis for resting-state functional MR imaging (rsfMR imaging) are still evolving. Neurovascular uncoupling and susceptibility artifact are important confounds of rsfMR imaging in the setting of focal brain lesions such as brain tumors.

Comparative Drug Response Profiling in Neuroblastoma Cell Lines and Patient‐Derived Tumor Organoids

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High‐risk neuroblastoma remains a leading cause of pediatric cancer mortality, and improved preclinical models are needed to guide therapeutic developments. We screened seven high‐risk neuroblastoma cell lines and three patient‐derived tumor organoids with 528 compounds alongside bone marrow controls, and compared them with external datasets ...

Brief review on the limit state function of dynamic scour protections

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
Offshore foundations, namely for offshore wind, wave and tidal applications, often require the use of scour protections. Rip-rap scour protections are an important element of the foundation to ensure that the natural frequency stays within the design limits.

High-Order Reliability Analysis of Nonlinear Steel Frames Using SVM-Reconstructed Limit State Function

Applied Sciences
In complex nonlinear steel frames, the limit-state function is typically nonlinear and implicit, which hinders the direct application of traditional first- and second-order reliability methods (FORM/SORM). A reliability analysis approach for steel frames

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.
