Dexamethasone for Chemotherapy‐Induced Nausea and Vomiting Prevention in Pediatric Patients: International Consensus

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background An international Delphi panel of experts developed consensus statements to delineate the circumstances where the risks of dexamethasone as an antiemetic do and do not outweigh its benefits. Procedure Experts in supportive care of pediatric patients were invited to participate.

Induced Norm-Based Analysis for Computed Torque Control of Robot Systems

IEEE Access, 2020
This paper is concerned with providing a new quantitative analysis method of computed torque control of robot systems by using three types of induced norm. This paper first considers design of a computed torque controller to achieve a trajectory tracking

Clinical Insights Into Hypercalcemia of Malignancy in Childhood

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hypercalcemia of malignancy (HCM) is a rare but life‐threatening metabolic emergency in children that occurs in less than 1% of pediatric cancer cases, with a reported incidence ranging from 0.4% to 1.0% across different studies. While it is observed in 10%–20% of adult malignancies, pediatric HCM remains relatively uncommon.

Detecting Possible Manipulators in Elections [PDF]

, 2015
Manipulation is a problem of fundamental importance in the context of voting in which the voters exercise their votes strategically instead of voting honestly to prevent selection of an alternative that is less preferred.

Estimating stiffness and damping of a novel variable impedance actuator based on adjusting viscoelastic properties of thermoresponsive polycaprolactone in harmonic motions

Scientific Reports
This paper presents a methodology to estimate the stiffness and damping of a novel variable impedance actuator designed to adjust its effective impedance by regulating the temperature of a thermoresponsive polymer, Polycaprolactone (PCL).

Viability and Feasibility of Constrained Kinematic Control of Manipulators

Robotics, 2018
Recent advances in planning and control of robot manipulators make an increasing use of optimization-based techniques, such as model predictive control. In this framework, ensuring the feasibility of the online optimal control problem is a key issue.

Adherence to Protocol Recommendations for Children With Wilms Tumour in Two Consecutive Studies in the United Kingdom and Ireland—Does Variation Matter?

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Wilms tumour (WT) has excellent event‐free and overall survival (OS). However, small differences exist between countries participating in the same international study. This led us to examine variation in adherence to protocol recommendations as a potential contributing factor.

Pediatric Oncology Nursing Competencies in Latin America and the Caribbean: A Scoping Review to Inform Practice, Education, and Research

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nurses are central to cancer care for children and adolescents, yet no comprehensive synthesis has defined essential core competencies for pediatric oncology nursing (PON) practice internationally, particularly in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).

Adaptive total energy shaping of a class of manipulators

IET Control Theory & Applications
Point‐to‐point control of underactuated mechanical systems is a challenging problem, especially if some of the system's parameters are uncertain. A popular method to stabilize underactuated manipulators is total energy shaping, in which a new Hamiltonian
