Health Literacy, Self‐Efficacy and Knowledge of Sickle Cell Disease Among Caregivers
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin leads to severe anaemia, painful crises and organ failure. Caregivers’ health literacy (HL) – their ability to assess, understand and apply information, and interact with healthcare professionals – is crucial for managing children with SCD, yet ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with haematological malignancies face significant emotional and relational challenges, often accompanied by difficulties in communicating their needs within the healthcare context. To address these issues, a narrative‐based psycho‐educational intervention based on the creation and prescription of Ironic Medications was ...

A note on moment generating functions
Statistics & Probability Letters, 2006 Abstract In this note, we show that if a sequence of moment generating functions M n ( t ) converges pointwise to a moment generating function M ( t ) for all t in some open interval of R, not necessarily containing the origin, then the distribution functions F n (corresponding to M n ) converge ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Anthracycline‐related cardiac remodeling precedes heart failure in childhood cancer survivors. The objectives of this study were to determine the relationships between patient‐specific factors, moderate‐to‐vigorous physical activity (MVPA), and cardiac remodeling.

Applying the Moment Generating Functions to the Study of Probability Distributions [PDF]
Informatică economică, 2007 In this paper, we describe a tool to aid in proving theorems about random variables, called the moment generating function, which converts problems about probabilities and expectations into problems from calculus about function values and derivates.

The discrete weighted exponential distribution and its applications [PDF]
Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2018 We propose a new discrete distribution namely the discrete weighted exponential (dWE) distribution. It is discretization of weighted exponential distribution.
