Bone Mineral Density After Contemporary Treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia: A Matched Cross‐Sectional Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Reduced bone mineral density (BMD) has been reported in survivors of childhood and young adult acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL); however, data from cohorts treated with contemporary protocols and including matched controls remain limited.

Association between pre-delivery maternal red blood cell distribution width and birth weight discordance in twin pregnancies: a twin pregnancy cohort study

Frontiers in Public Health
BackgroundTwin growth discordance, commonly defined as an inter-twin birth weight difference ≥20%, is linked to increased neonatal morbidity, but simple maternal laboratory markers to aid late-pregnancy risk assessment are limited.

Foreign direct investment and corruption in developing economies: Evidence from linear and non-linear panel Granger causality tests [PDF]

This paper determines the causal link between FDI and corruption in 42 developing countries using linear and non linear panel Granger causal methods over the period 1998 to 2009. The findings show that the outcome of the causal association depends on the

Exercise Capacity, Physical Activity, Fatigue, and Neurocognitive Function in Adult Survivors of Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Adult survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are at risk of reduced exercise capacity, decreased physical activity levels, persistent fatigue, and neurocognitive deficits. The aim was to investigate exercise capacity and physical activity levels of adult survivors of childhood ALL and their associations with ...

Distributed Lag Linear and Non-Linear Models in R: The Package dlnm [PDF]

Distributed lag non-linear models (DLNMs) represent a modeling framework to flexibly describe associations showing potentially non-linear and delayed effects in time series data. This methodology rests on the definition of a crossbasis , a bi-dimensional
