Imaging of Abdominal Complications in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia
ABSTRACT Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common paediatric malignancy and remains one of the most common causes of cancer‐related death in children and adolescents. Five‐year overall survival rates now exceed 90% with current multidrug chemotherapeutic regimens. This improvement, coupled with the toxicity of chemotherapy, has led to the

ABSTRACT High‐throughput sequencing of the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) regions is the primary method for estimating fungal diversity from environmental DNA. However, reliance solely on ITS markers is complicated by its high variability in sequence length and the presence of multiple variants within a single genome, which can bias diversity ...
