Ethnic Differences in the Association Between SOD2 rs4880 and Hepatotoxicity in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Report From the REDIAL Consortium

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Treatment‐associated hepatotoxicity (TAH) is a common complication of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) treatment, but genetic risk factors remain poorly understood. We evaluated the SOD2 rs4880 variant in 544 children with ALL at Texas Children's Hospital. After adjusting for demographic and clinical covariates, the rs4880 C allele

Analysis of logistic growth models [PDF]

, 2001
A variety of growth curves have been developed to model both unpredated, intraspecific population dynamics and more general biological growth. Most successful predictive models are shown to be based on extended forms of the classical Verhulst logistic ...

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Mathematical Modeling and Analysis of Tumor Growth Models Integrating Treatment Therapy

Mathematical and Computational Applications
This study presents a comparative analysis of tumor growth models based on logistic, exponential, and Gompertz formulations. Their response to therapeutic intervention is examined to identify which model shows better behavior with minimal decline of ...

Stable tail dependence functions – some basic properties

Dependence Modeling, 2022
We prove some important properties of the extremal coefficients of a stable tail dependence function (“STDF”) and characterise logistic and some related STDFs.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

An Integrated MC-HFLTS&MAIRCA Method and Application in Cargo Distribution Companies [PDF]

International Journal of Supply and Operations Management, 2019
Cargo transportation is part of the logistic sectors. Both service quality and customer satisfaction are very important for companies which provide cargo transportation services. This study aims to evaluate cargo companies via DMs (customers) preferences

Pre‐analytical optimization of cell‐free DNA and extracellular vesicle‐derived DNA for mutation detection in liquid biopsies

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pre‐analytical handling critically determines liquid biopsy performance. This study defines practical best‐practice conditions for cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and extracellular vesicle–derived DNA (evDNA), showing how processing time, storage conditions, tube type, and plasma input volume affect DNA integrity and mutation detection.

Hybrid model to design a distribution network in contract farming

Dyna, 2019
This paper suggests a hybrid model to solve a distribution problem incorporating the impact of uncertainty in the solution. The model combines the deterministic approach and the simulation including stochastic variables such as harvest yield, loss risk ...
