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 ...

Comparative Drug Response Profiling in Neuroblastoma Cell Lines and Patient‐Derived Tumor Organoids

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High‐risk neuroblastoma remains a leading cause of pediatric cancer mortality, and improved preclinical models are needed to guide therapeutic developments. We screened seven high‐risk neuroblastoma cell lines and three patient‐derived tumor organoids with 528 compounds alongside bone marrow controls, and compared them with external datasets ...

Retrospective Analysis of Donor Lymphocyte Infusions in Pediatric Patients With Mixed Chimerism After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is an essential therapy for several malignant and nonmalignant diseases, but relapse and graft loss remain the principal threats to its success. Routine monitoring of chimerism and minimal residual disease (MRD) enables early detection of imminent recurrence and guides ...

Ordering Residual Lives Using the Moment Generating Transform [PDF]

The Egyptian Statistical Journal, 2003
This paper presents new notions of stochastic comparisons and ageing classes based on the moment generating function order. The relationships to other stochastic orders and ageing classes are given.

Venetoclax‐Based Therapy as a Bridge to Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Relapsed or Refractory Pediatric Acute Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Relapsed and/or refractory (R/R) pediatric acute leukemia carries a dismal prognosis, largely driven by chemoresistance to conventional salvage therapy. The BH3‐mimetic venetoclax, combined with chemotherapy or hypomethylating agents, has demonstrated efficacy in small clinical trials.

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.

A characterization of the normal distribution [PDF]

Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2014
It is shown that the normal distribution with mean zero is characterized by the property that the product of its characteristic function and moment generating function is equal to 1.
