Parent‐to‐Child Information Disclosure in Pediatric Oncology

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite professional consensus regarding the importance of open communication with pediatric cancer patients about their disease, actual practice patterns of disclosure are understudied. Extant literature suggests a significant proportion of children are not told about their diagnosis/prognosis, which is purported to negatively ...

A New Family of Lifetime Models: Theoretical Developments with Applications in Biomedical and Environmental Data

Axioms, 2022
With the aim of identifying a probability model that not only correctly describes the stochastic behavior of extreme environmental factors such as excess rain, acid rain pH level, and concentrations of ozone, but also measures concentrations of NO2 and ...

LSJK - a C++ library for arbitrary-precision numeric evaluation of the generalized log-sine functions

, 2004
Generalized log-sine functions appear in higher order epsilon-expansion of different Feynman diagrams. We present an algorithm for numerical evaluation of these functions of real argument.

Multiple sine functions and Selberg zeta functions

Proceedings of the Japan Academy, Series A, Mathematical Sciences, 1991
Forming suitable Weierstraß products the author defines a multiple gamma function \(G_ r\) (related to the Barnes multiple gamma function) and a multiple sine function \(F_ r\) of order \(r\geq 2\). The multiple sine functions are related with the polylogarithm function \(Li_ k(x)\) and may be used to express special values of zeta functions such as \(\

Radiotherapy Delivery in Deep Inspiration for Pediatric Patients—Final Results of the Phase II Feasibility Study TEDDI

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The TEDDI trial tested the feasibility and reproducibility of deep‐inspiration breath‐hold (DIBH) in pediatric patients referred for radiotherapy. This report presents final results, including patient‐reported outcomes (PRO) and dosimetric comparison of DIBH and free‐breathing (FB).

Enhancing Accuracy and Precision in Omni-Angle Edge-Based Modulation Transfer Function Measurements

IEEE Access
The modulation transfer function (MTF) quantitatively describes the ability of an optical or imaging system to reproduce contrast at various spatial frequencies. The ISO 12233 edge-based method adopted diagonal MTF measurement for sampled imaging systems

Prolonged Corrected QT Interval as an Early Electrocardiographic Marker of Cyclophosphamide‐Induced Cardiotoxicity in Pediatric Hematology and Oncology Patients

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cyclophosphamide (CY) is associated with potentially fatal cardiotoxicity, yet no electrocardiographic indices have been established for early detection of CY‐induced cardiomyopathy. This study aimed to determine whether corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation can predict early onset of CY‐related cardiac dysfunction in pediatric ...

Neural Coding of Green Flash in Retinal Bipolar Pathways [PDF]

, 2012
What visual information do the graded potentials among retinal bipolar pathways actually transmit from photoreceptors to ganglion cells? The answer does not exist. Even the graded electric signals have not been understood completely.

A Systematic Review of Evidence on the Clinical Effectiveness of Surveillance Imaging in Children With Medulloblastoma and Ependymoma

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Surveillance imaging aims to detect tumour relapse before symptoms develop, but it's unclear whether earlier detection of relapse leads to better outcomes in children and young people (CYP) with medulloblastoma and ependymoma. This systematic review aims to identify relevant literature to determine the efficacy of surveillance magnetic ...

Division values of multiple sine functions

Kodai Mathematical Journal, 2009
We refine a formula on values of quadruple sine functions at division points. As applications we prove a formula on a sum of reciprocal trigonometric values, and obtain multiple modularity of a three variable modular function, which concerns a generalization of the Dedekind η function.
