Changes in Body Composition in Children and Young People Undergoing Treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ongoing evidence indicates increased risk of sarcopenic obesity among children and young people (CYP) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), often beginning early in treatment, persisting into survivorship. This review evaluates current literature on body composition in CYP with ALL during and after treatment.

A sharp threshold for minimum bounded-depth and bounded-diameter spanning trees and Steiner trees in random networks

open access: yes, 2011
In the complete graph on n vertices, when each edge has a weight which is an exponential random variable, Frieze proved that the minimum spanning tree has weight tending to zeta(3)=1/1^3+1/2^3+1/3^3+... as n goes to infinity.

An improved performance of greedy heuristic solutions for a bi-criteria mixture packaging problem of two types of items with bounded weights

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2020
In this paper, we treat a lexicographic bi-criteria combinatorial optimization model of mixture packaging of two types of items, which arises in actual food packing systems, so-called multi-head weighers.

Predicting Chronicity in Children and Adolescents With Newly Diagnosed Immune Thrombocytopenia at the Timepoint of Diagnosis Using Machine Learning‐Based Approaches

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To identify predictors of chronic ITP (cITP) and to develop a model based on several machine learning (ML) methods to estimate the individual risk of chronicity at the timepoint of diagnosis. Methods We analyzed a longitudinal cohort of 944 children enrolled in the Intercontinental Cooperative immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) Study ...

Maximal Flat Antichains of Minimum Weight [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2009
We study maximal families ${\cal A}$ of subsets of $[n]=\{1,2,\dots,n\}$ such that ${\cal A}$ contains only pairs and triples and $A\not\subseteq B$ for all $\{A,B\}\subseteq{\cal A}$, i.e. ${\cal A}$ is an antichain. For any $n$, all such families ${\cal A}$ of minimum size are determined. This is equivalent to finding all graphs $G=(V,E)$ with $|V|=n$

Estimating the weight of metric minimum spanning trees in sublinear time [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this paper we present a sublinear-time $(1+\varepsilon)$-approximation randomized algorithm to estimate the weight of the minimum spanning tree of an $n$-point metric space. The running time of the algorithm is $\widetilde{\mathcal{O}}(n/\varepsilon^{\

Characterizing Parental Concerns About Lasting Impacts of Treatment in Children With B‐Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background B‐acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B‐ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer, and while most children in high‐resource settings are cured, therapy carries risks for long‐term toxicities. Understanding parents’ concerns about these late effects is essential to guide anticipatory support and inform evolving therapeutic approaches ...

Randomized Algorithms for the Loop Cutset Problem

open access: yes, 2011
We show how to find a minimum weight loop cutset in a Bayesian network with high probability. Finding such a loop cutset is the first step in the method of conditioning for inference.

Tree-Based Construction of LDPC Codes Having Good Pseudocodeword Weights [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We present a tree-based construction of LDPC codes that have minimum pseudocodeword weight equal to or almost equal to the minimum distance, and perform well with iterative decoding.
