Natural Killer Cells in Paediatric Soft Tissue Sarcomas: A Systematic Review

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paediatric soft tissue sarcomas (pSTS) are a rare and heterogeneous group of malignant tumours arising in tissues of mesenchymal origin. The role of natural killer (NK) cells in pSTS remains poorly understood, with evidence fragmented across small preclinical studies and early‐phase clinical trials.

Semi-Slack Scheduling Arbitrary Activation Patterns in Mixed-Criticality Systems

IEEE Access, 2018
This paper proposes a semi-slack scheduling framework for mixed-criticality systems with arbitrary task activation patterns. In particular, based on the schedulability test of arbitrary task activation model, we present a tight slack-reclaim scheme that ...

Implications of Non-Uniform Deadline Scaling to Quality of Service Under Single Errors

IEEE Access, 2022
Fault-tolerant real-time systems for emerging critical applications like wearable electronic healthcare monitors, consumer-grade unmanned aerial vehicles, or environmental monitoring have to tolerate errors during operation.

Animal‐Assisted Activities With Therapy Dogs in Pediatric Oncology: A Multicenter Survey of the Current Status, Implementation, and Challenges in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Animal‐assisted activities (AAAs) with therapy dogs have shown positive effects on patient well‐being and quality of life in various areas of medicine, including pediatric oncology. However, research on this topic is limited. The aim of this study is to present the current status of AAA in pediatric oncology in Germany, Austria, and

On Hierarchical Composite Endpoints in Pediatric Cancer Supportive Care: Illustrative Examples From Two Multi‐Center Phase‐III Randomized Clinical Trials

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric supportive care clinical trials often involve multiple clinically important outcomes, complicating trial interpretation. Hierarchical composite endpoints (HCEs) provide a framework to integrate key outcomes according to clinical importance.

Relaxing the synchronous approach for mixed-criticality systems

2014 IEEE 19th Real-Time and Embedded Technology and Applications Symposium (RTAS), 2014
Synchronous languages are widely used to design safety-critical embedded systems. These languages are based on the synchrony hypothesis, asserting that all tasks must complete instantaneously at each logical time step. This assertion is, however, unsuitable for the design of mixed-criticality systems, where some tasks can tolerate missed deadlines ...

Determining Parental Factors for Clinical Trial Attrition in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Despite high enrollment rates on Children's Oncology Group (COG) protocols, attrition after initial consent is challenging, introducing bias and prolonging trial completion. While adult oncology literature has identified predictors of withdrawal, little is known about caregiver decision‐making for child participation in ...

Mixed Criticality Scheduling for Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks

Sensors, 2016
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been widely used in industrial systems. Their real-time performance and reliability are fundamental to industrial production. Many works have studied the two aspects, but only focus on single criticality WSNs.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.
