Pulmonary Dysfunction Is Associated With Sleep Study Abnormalities in Children With Sickle Cell Disease: A Multicenter Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary dysfunction and sleep abnormalities are common in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) and are associated with worse clinical outcomes. Whether spirometry abnormalities are associated with polysomnography (PSG) findings remains unclear.

Oscillations in the inflaton potential: Complete numerical treatment and comparison with the recent and forthcoming CMB datasets

open access: yes, 2012
Amongst the multitude of inflationary models currently available, models that lead to features in the primordial scalar spectrum are drawing increasing attention, since certain features have been found to provide a better fit to the CMB data than the ...

Prevalence and Trajectory of Household Material Hardship Among Children With Advanced Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Families of children with advanced cancer living in poverty experience inferior outcomes including poor parent mental health and worse child quality of life. Household material hardship (HMH: food, housing, transportation, and/or utility insecurity) is a modifiable poverty exposure—and potential intervention target—that ...

Predicting Measurement Model Misfit With Machine Learning While Accounting for Nuisance Parameters – An Illustration

open access: yesPsychological Test Adaptation and Development
: Developing valid measurement models for latent variables, such as personality traits, is essential for accurate psychological assessment. A critical aspect of this process is evaluating the fit of psychometric models.

Dark Energy or Apparent Acceleration Due to a Relativistic Cosmological Model More Complex than FLRW?

open access: yes, 2008
We use the Szekeres inhomogeneous relativistic models in order to fit supernova combined data sets. We show that with a choice of the spatial curvature function that is guided by current observations, the models fit the supernova data almost as well as ...

Financial Burden Associated With Hospitalisation Among Families of Childhood Brain Tumours in Australia

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

Inpatient Food Insecurity and Pediatric Hematology Oncology Hospitalization Outcomes

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Children with cancer and blood disorders are at risk for food insecurity (FI). We aimed to describe the association of inpatient food insecurity (IFI) and hospitalization outcomes among patients admitted to the pediatric hematology oncology service. Of 325 caregivers screened for IFI, 60 (18.6%) screened positive.

A parallelization model for performance characterization of Spark Big Data jobs on Hadoop clusters

open access: yesJournal of Big Data, 2021
This article proposes a new parallel performance model for different workloads of Spark Big Data applications running on Hadoop clusters. The proposed model can predict the runtime for generic workloads as a function of the number of executors, without ...

Optimal parametrization for the relativistic mean-field model of the nucleus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We study a relativistic model of the nucleus consisting of nucleons coupled to mesonic degrees of freedom via an effective Lagrangian whose parameters are determined by a fit to selected nuclear ground-state data.
