Guidelines for Pediatric Radiotherapy Simulation: A Report From the Children's Oncology Group Radiation Oncology Discipline

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric radiation therapy presents unique challenges compared to adult treatments, including those of immobilization, potential need for sedation, and the critical importance of accurate, reproducible positioning. Additionally, heightened attention to imaging doses is necessary to minimize long‐term toxicity in survivors.

Model analysis of complex structures – advantages of physical sub-scaled model testing and shortcomings in physical model production [PDF]

Procedia Structural Integrity, 2018
Abstract The possibilities of testing real constructions strength are often limited, especially in case of large constructions. Testing on the model, instead of the actual construction, results in a great saving of money and time. Sub-scaled model of the construction of the substructure, the slewing platform and the lower part of the pylons of the ...

Early Impact of Childhood Opportunity on Neurocognitive Outcomes in Sickle Cell Disease

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neurocognitive impairment is a well‐recognized complication of sickle cell disease (SCD) that begins early in childhood and persists across development. While cerebrovascular injury contributes substantially to risk, neurocognitive deficits are also observed in children without overt or silent cerebral infarctions, suggesting ...

Investigation on the behavior of two-tiered MSE walls as bridge abutments [PDF]

مهندسی عمران شریف
Mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls are commonly used as bridge abutments to support bridge deck loads. In this type of abutment, the use of a tiered configuration can play a prominent role in reducing induced horizontal stress, reducing lateral ...

Deterioration-buckling failure mechanism of consequent bedding limestone bank slope in Three Gorges Reservoir area

Rock and Soil Mechanics, 2022
In the Wuxia section of the Three Gorges Reservoir area, it is found that there are many deformation signs of sliding-bending along the bedding bank slope, and the cyclic fluctuation of reservoir water worsens the deterioration and instability of the ...

Psychosocial Functioning After Pediatric Bone Sarcoma: Generic and Survivor‐Specific Outcomes in Adolescent and Young Adult Patients

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric bone sarcoma patients and survivors may experience psychosocial challenges related to childhood cancer after their intensive, body‐altering treatment. This cross‐sectional study aimed to evaluate generic and survivor‐specific psychosocial outcomes in a national cohort of pediatric bone sarcoma patients and survivors, and ...

Failure characteristics and prediction of dispersed soil slope induced by rainfall

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
Due to high water sensitivity of dispersed soil, the dispersed soil slope is prone to deformation and failure. At present, there is a lack of overall understanding of the failure characteristics and prediction of the dispersed soil slope.
