Implementing Health‐Related Quality of Life Assessment in Pediatric Oncology: A Feasibility Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There is growing interest in embedding health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) assessment and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) within clinical cancer care. This study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability, and usability of implementing an electronic PROM (ePROM) platform to measure HRQoL in children with cancer ...

Counteractive control against cyber-attack uncertainties on frequency regulation in the power system

IET Cyber-Physical Systems, 2020
In this study, an observer based control strategy is proposed for load frequency control (LFC) scheme against cyber-attack uncertainties. Most of research work focused on detection scheme or delay estimation scheme in presence of cyber-attack ...

Treatment Decision‐Making Roles and Preferences Among Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Decision‐making (DM) dynamics between adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer, parents, and oncologists remain underexplored in diverse populations. We examined cancer treatment DM preferences among an ethnically and socioeconomically diverse group of AYAs and their parents.

Compound control method for DC–DC converter

The Journal of Engineering, 2019
Considering the problems of internal and external disturbances, i.e. time-varying load, inaccurate system model and external uncertainties etc., a compound control strategy based on model predictive control (MPC) and non-linear extended state observer ...

Parent Quality of Life at Two Years Following Their Child's Completion of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Treatment

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Parents of children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often experience significant caregiver burden and disruption to their well‐being. While parent quality of life (QoL) during treatment is well characterized, little is known about outcomes during early survivorship.

Observation, observation, observation

Cybergeo : revue européenne de géographie / European journal of geography, 2014
After having deplored for a long time the rarity, the slow pace of preparation and the lack of access to what seemed to be mountainous terrains, big data has been created, emerging in fluid masses, wave after wave, to become a new sphere of knowledge, useful for human and social sciences.

Rapid Response to Trametinib Combined With Chemotherapy for Infant BRAF‐Fused Chiasmatic Glioma

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Infants, less than 1 year, with chiasmatic gliomas (ICG) present a major therapeutic challenge due to large tumor size, decreased vision, rapid progression, and poor response to vincristine/carboplatin chemotherapy. The majority have a BRAF fusion, which may respond to downstream MEK inhibitors but response time is slow. There are no safety or

Finite-time composite control scheme for three-phase four-leg inverter under variable operating conditions

The Journal of Engineering, 2019
Three-phase four-leg inverters widely used in microgrid can effectively provide the power for the non-linear/unbalanced loads. Here, the non-linear composite controller is proposed for three-phase four-leg inverter system under [inline-formula] reference
