Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...

Experience With Performing Rheocarna Therapy via the Single‐Needle Method for Treatment of Chronic Limb‐Threatening Ischemia

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction This study investigated the safety and efficacy of single‐needle Rheocarna therapy for chronic limb‐threatening ischemia (CLTI) with wounds. Methods Six patients with CLTI involving ulcers unresponsive to revascularization underwent single‐needle Rheocarna treatment.

Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Moment estimates for Lévy Processes

Electronic Communications in Probability, 2008
For real Lévy processes $(X\_t)\_{t \geq 0}$ having no Brownian component with Blumenthal-Getoor index $β$, the estimate $\E \sup\_{s \leq t} | X\_s - a\_p s |^p \leq C\_p t$ for every $t \in [0,1]$ and suitable $a\_p \in \R$ has been established by Millar \cite{MILL} for $β< p \leq 2$ provided $X\_1 \in L^p$. We derive extensions of these estimates

Archimedean Copulas-Based Estimation under One-Parameter Distributions in Coherent Systems

Mathematics
In the present work we provide a signature-based framework for delivering the estimated mean lifetime along with the variance of the continuous distribution of a coherent system consisting of exchangeable components.

Establishing an Apheresis Medicine Program in a Resource‐Constrained Setting: A 5‐Year Experience From Lagos, Nigeria

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Establishing a comprehensive apheresis medicine program in a resource‐constrained setting presents significant structural, financial, and logistical challenges. Despite the growing clinical importance of apheresis services globally, published experience from sub‐Saharan Africa remains sparse.

A Symmetric/Asymmetric Bimodal Extension Based on the Logistic Distribution: Properties, Simulation and Applications

Mathematics, 2022
In this paper, we introduce bimodal extensions, one symmetric and one asymmetric, of the logistic distribution. We define this new density and study some basic properties. We draw inferences from the moment estimator and maximum likelihood approaches. We
