ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with high‐risk cancer face complex developmental, psychosocial, and ethical challenges that extend beyond disease‐directed treatment. Although international recommendations exist for communication, psychosocial care, pediatric palliative care, survivorship, and shared decision‐making, these have largely evolved within ...

Quasirandom permutations are characterized by 4-point densities [PDF]
For permutations π and τ of lengths |π|≤|τ| , let t(π,τ) be the probability that the restriction of τ to a random |π| -point set is (order) isomorphic to π . We show that every sequence {τj} of permutations such that |τj|→∞ and t(π,τj)→1/4!

Covering n-Permutations with (n+1)-Permutations [PDF]
Let $S_n$ be the set of all permutations on $[n]:=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$. We denote by $\kappa_n$ the smallest cardinality of a subset ${\cal A}$ of $S_{n+1}$ that "covers" $S_n$, in the sense that each $\pi\in S_n$ may be found as an order-isomorphic subsequence of some $\pi'$ in ${\cal A}$. What are general upper bounds on $\kappa_n$?

ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.

Lattice permutations and Poisson-Dirichlet distribution of cycle lengths [PDF]
We study random spatial permutations on ℤ3 where each jump x↦π(x) is penalized by a factor e−T∥x−π(x)∥2 . The system is known to exhibit a phase transition for low enough T where macroscopic cycles appear.

The greedy and unstoppable bulldozer of runaway globalisation has led to unprecedented economic growth in the world since the 1990s, but at a cost. Local realities, practices and knowledges are being smothered, and ecosystems worldwide are becoming more ...

Sorting by Multi-Cut Rearrangements
A multi-cut rearrangement of a string S is a string S′ obtained from S by an operation called k-cut rearrangement, that consists of (1) cutting S at a given number k of places in S, making S the concatenated string X1·X2·X3·…·Xk·Xk+1, where X1 and Xk+1 ...

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.

ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...
