A Quality Improvement Initiative to Standardize Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia Prophylaxis in Pediatric Patients With Solid Tumors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with extracranial solid tumors (ST) receiving chemotherapy are at an increased risk for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). However, evidence guiding prophylaxis practices in this population is limited. A PJP‐related fatality at our institution highlighted inconsistent prescribing approaches and concerns about

Period–Luminosity Relations for Double-mode δ Sct Stars

The Astrophysical Journal
Previous studies of the period–luminosity relations (PLRs) of Delta Scuti ( δ Sct) stars have focused on those with a single pulsation mode. However, for δ Sct stars with many different pulsation modes, classifying a single mode is difficult.

Observations of red-giant variable stars by Aboriginal Australians

, 2017
Aboriginal Australians carefully observe the properties and positions of stars, including both overt and subtle changes in their brightness, for subsistence and social application. These observations are encoded in oral tradition.

Finding the most variable stars in the Orion Belt with the All Sky Automated Survey [PDF]

, 2010
We look for high-amplitude variable young stars in the open clusters and associations of the Orion Belt. We use public data from the ASAS-3 Photometric V-band Catalogue of the All Sky Automated Survey, infrared photometry from the 2MASS and IRAS ...

Observations of Long Period Variable Stars [PDF]

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1989
The study of long period variable stars has been transformed in recent years by two observational developments. Large samples of stars have been observed at infrared wavelengths, providing knowledge of the intrinsic properties of the star as well as of circumstellar dust shells, and these observations have been extended to the variables in well defined

Finding outlier light curves in catalogues of periodic variable stars [PDF]

, 2005
We present a methodology to discover outliers in catalogues of periodic light curves. We use a cross-correlation as the measure of ‘similarity’ between two individual light curves, and then classify light curves with lowest average ‘similarity’ as ...

Psychosocial Outcomes in Patients With Endocrine Tumor Syndromes: A Systematic Review

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The combination of disease manifestations, the familial burden, and varying penetrance of endocrine tumor syndromes (ETSs) is unique. This review aimed to portray and summarize available data on psychosocial outcomes in patients with ETSs and explore gaps and opportunities for future research and care.

Modeling of Two Low-amplitude Radially Pulsating δ Scuti Stars: KIC 12602250 and KIC 5768203

The Astrophysical Journal
In this research, we conducted systematic photometric, spectroscopic, and theoretical modeling analyses of two δ Scuti stars—KIC 12602250 and KIC 5768203—that pulsate only in radial modes.

Nutritional and Behavioral Intervention for Long‐Term Childhood Acute Leukemia Survivors With Metabolic Syndrome

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a common complication in survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic and myeloid leukemia (AL), and a major risk factor for premature cardiovascular disease, type‐2‐diabetes, and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).

The Araucaria Project. Bright Variable Stars in NGC 6822 from a Wide-Field Imaging Survey

, 2006
We have performed a search for variable stars in the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 using wide-field multi-epoch VI photometry down to a limiting magnitude $V$ $\sim$ 22.
