A generalization of Peaceman–Rachford fractional step method
In this paper we develop a set of time integrators of type fractional step Runge-Kutta methods which generalize the time integrator involved in the classical Peaceman-Rachford scheme. Combining a time semidiscretization of this type with a standard spatial discretization, we obtain a totally discrete algorithm capable of discretizing efficiently a ...

Clinical Insights Into Hypercalcemia of Malignancy in Childhood
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.

ABSTRACT Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare, high‐flow, vascular anomalies that can occur either sporadically or as part of a genetic syndrome. AVMs can progress with serious morbidity and even mortality if left unchecked. Sirolimus is an mTOR inhibitor that is effective in low‐flow vascular malformations; however, its role in AVMs is unclear.
