ABSTRACT Background Survivors of pediatric brain tumors (PBTs) can experience long‐term social difficulties, impacting quality of life. Beyond medical and environmental factors, family psychosocial risk may play a role in social outcomes by shaping the caregiving environment and may provide intervention options.

Dynamics of annulus coverings II: periodic points
Let $f$ be a covering map of the open annulus $A= S^1\times (0,1)$ of degree $d$ , $|d|>1$. Assume that $f$ preserves an essential (i.e not contained in a disk of $A$) compact subset $K$. We show that $f$ has at least the same number of periodic points in each period as the map $z^d$ in $S^1.$

ABSTRACT Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is an essential therapy for several malignant and nonmalignant diseases, but relapse and graft loss remain the principal threats to its success. Routine monitoring of chimerism and minimal residual disease (MRD) enables early detection of imminent recurrence and guides ...

Continuum of limit cycles in a class of three-dimensional quadratic polynomial systems
It is well-known that planar autonomous polynomial dynamical systems have only a finite number of limit cycles. We present a class of parameter depending three-dimensional autonomous systems whose right-hand side consists of quadratic polynomials and ...

Collagen fibrillogenesis in the development of the annulus fibrosus of the intervertebral disc [PDF]
The annulus fibrosus of the intervertebral disc is a complex, radial-ply connective tissue consisting of concentric lamellae of oriented collagen. Whilst much is known of the structure of the mature annulus, less is known of how its complex collagenous ...

On periodic solutions of liénard type equations
The Liénard type equation x'' + f(x, x')x' + g(x) = 0 (i) is considered. We claim that if the associated conservative equation x'' + g(x) = 0 has period annuli then a dissipation f(x, x') exists such that a limit cycle of equation (i) exists in a ...

Pediatric Idiopathic Multicentric Castleman Disease Is Often Severe But Responsive to Siltuximab
ABSTRACT Background Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a potentially fatal immunologic disorder marked by widespread lymphadenopathy and inflammation. Siltuximab, an interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) inhibitor, is the only FDA‐approved treatment for adult patients with iMCD.

The Number of Limit Cycles of a Polynomial System on the Plane
We perturb the vector field x˙=-yC(x,y), y˙=xC(x,y) with a polynomial perturbation of degree n, where C(x,y)=(1-y2)m, and study the number of limit cycles bifurcating from the period annulus surrounding the origin.

Limit cycle bifurcations in a planar piecewise quadratic system with multiple parameters
This paper is concerned with the number of limit cycles bifurcating from a period annulus for some planar piecewise smooth non-Hamiltonian systems. We construct a planar piecewise quadratic system with multiple parameters, obtain its lower bound for the ...
