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.

Children’s emerging concepts of resilience: insights from using body mapping in an East London cohort sample of 7-10-year-old children

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology
BackgroundUnderstanding resilience factors in children is essential for developing early mental health interventions. Middle childhood is an understudied developmental stage, with many quantitative measures lacking validation for this age group and not ...

A hybrid ice-mélange model based on particle and continuum methods [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Ice mélange, a composite of sea ice and icebergs, can have a major influence on sea-ice–ocean interactions. However, ice mélange has not been represented in climate models because numerically efficient realizations do not exist.

Gridless Two-dimensional DOA Estimation With L-shaped Array Based on the Cross-covariance Matrix

open access: yes, 2017
The atomic norm minimization (ANM) has been successfully incorporated into the two-dimensional (2-D) direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation problem for super-resolution.

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 ...

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

Small area estimation for spatially correlated populations - a comparison of direct and indirect model-based methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Linear mixed models underpin many small area estimation (SAE) methods. In this paper we investigate SAE based on linear models with spatially correlated small area effects where the neighbourhood structure is described by a contiguity matrix. Such models

The Fate (Outcome) of Clinically Apparent Single Lesion and Oligofocal Nephroblastomatosis Treated According to SIOP/GPOH Protocols for Wilms Tumor

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The management of clinically apparent single lesions or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis, a facultative precursor of nephroblastoma, remains debated. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 37 patients with clinically apparent single or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis (two to three lesions per kidney) among 2347 patients registered between

Improved shape-signature and matching methods for model-based robotic vision [PDF]

open access: yes
Researchers describe new techniques for curve matching and model-based object recognition, which are based on the notion of shape-signature. The signature which researchers use is an approximation of pointwise curvature.

Learning multiple fault diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
This paper describes two methods for integrating model-based diagnosis (MBD) and explanation-based learning. The first method (EBL) uses a generate-test-debug paradigm, generating diagnostic hypotheses using learned associational rules that summarize ...
