Early Body Mass Index z‐Score Change and Resolution of Severe Malnutrition in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia in a Low‐Income Setting: A Prospective Single‐Arm Extension Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...

Impact of Radiation Therapy on Physical and Psychosocial Health of Adolescents and Young Adults: A Joint Report From the Children's Oncology Group AYA and Radiation Oncology Committees

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
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.

Preserving positivity for matrices with sparsity constraints

, 2016
Functions preserving Loewner positivity when applied entrywise to positive semidefinite matrices have been widely studied in the literature. Following the work of Schoenberg [Duke Math. J. 9], Rudin [Duke Math. J.

Positivity preserving numerical method for epidemic model of hepatitis B disease dynamic with delay factor

Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2023
This work attempts to study the numerical solution of nonlinear delayed Immunized Susceptible Latent Infected and Recovered (MSLIR) epidemic model of HBV disease. Reproduction number, equilibria and stability are discussed.

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

A novel holographic framework preserving reflection positivity in dSd spacetime

Physics Letters B
This manuscript introduces a novel holographic correspondence in d-dimensional de Sitter (dSd) spacetime, connecting bulk dSd scalar unitary irreducible representations (UIRs) with their counterparts at the dSd boundary I±, all while preserving ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

High order positivity-preserving finite volume WENO schemes for a hierarchical size-structured population model [PDF]

, 2011
In this paper we develop high order positivity-preserving finite volume weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) schemes for solving a hierarchical size-structured population model with nonlinear growth, mortality and reproduction rates.

A Well-Balanced Wet–Dry Front Reconstruction for Two-Layer Shallow Water Flows

Mathematics
In this paper, a well-balanced and positivity-preserving scheme for the nonconservative two-layer shallow water equations is developed in the framework of the finite volume method. To address the challenges posed by wet–dry fronts, the focus of our study
