Packing and Hausdorff Measures of Stable Trees [PDF]

, 2010
In this paper we discuss Hausdorff and packing measures of random continuous trees called stable trees. Stable trees form a specific class of Lévy trees (introduced by Le Gall and Le Jan in 1998) that contains Aldous's continuum random tree (1991) which corresponds to the Brownian case.

Animal‐Assisted Activities With Therapy Dogs in Pediatric Oncology: A Multicenter Survey of the Current Status, Implementation, and Challenges in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Animal‐assisted activities (AAAs) with therapy dogs have shown positive effects on patient well‐being and quality of life in various areas of medicine, including pediatric oncology. However, research on this topic is limited. The aim of this study is to present the current status of AAA in pediatric oncology in Germany, Austria, and

Complex continued fractions with restricted entries

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 1998
We study special infinite iterated function systems derived from complex continued fraction expansions with restricted entries. We focus our attention on the corresponding limit set whose Hausdorff dimension will be denoted by $h$. Our primary goal is to

On Hierarchical Composite Endpoints in Pediatric Cancer Supportive Care: Illustrative Examples From Two Multi‐Center Phase‐III Randomized Clinical Trials

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric supportive care clinical trials often involve multiple clinically important outcomes, complicating trial interpretation. Hierarchical composite endpoints (HCEs) provide a framework to integrate key outcomes according to clinical importance.

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Multifractal Structure of Irregular Sets via Weighted Random Sequences

Fractal and Fractional
We study the multifractal structure of irregular sets arising from Fibonacci-weighted sums of sequences of random variables. Focusing on Cantor-type subsets Kε of the unit interval, we construct sequences of free and forced blocks, where the free blocks ...

Packing rates of measures and a conjecture for the packing density of 2413

, 2010
We give a new lower bound of 0.10472422757673209041 for the packing density of 2413, justify it by a construction, and conjecture that this value is actually equal to the packing density. Along the way we define the packing rate of a permutation with respect to a measure, and show that maximizing the packing rate of a pattern over all measures gives ...

Packing density of cementitious materials: measurement and modelling [PDF]

Magazine of Concrete Research, 2008
Packing density has great effect on the performance of a concrete mix. However, little research has been carried out on the packing density of cementitious materials owing to the lack of an established measurement method. Herein, a new method, called the wet packing method, is presented.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
