The use of 3D-Printed PA6-GF components for the construction of structural specimens

Case Studies in Construction Materials
The current study shows the application of 3D printing methods for structural testing. The primary goal of the experiments was to facilitate mechanical testing using polyamide 6 (Nylon) augmented with glass fibres, or PA6-GF.

Clinical Course and Impact of Breaks in Therapy for Children With Relapsed/Refractory Solid Tumors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pediatric relapsed or refractory (R/R) solid tumors carry a dismal prognosis, and postrelapse patient experiences are not well described. We present postrelapse outcomes, including number of R/R events and subsequent therapy regimens.

Non-Invasive Estimation of Intracranial Pressure-Derived Cerebrovascular Reactivity Using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Sensor Technology in Acute Neural Injury: A Time-Series Analysis

Sensors
The contemporary monitoring of cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) relies on invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring which limits its application.

Criterion‐Related Validity of the Neuropsychological Quick Assessment for Screening Cognitive, Motor, and Behavioral Impairments in Patients With Pediatric Brain Tumors: An Observational Pilot Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuropsychological complications may impair the qualitative prognosis of patients with pediatric brain tumors. However, multifaceted evaluations cannot be conducted in all patients because they are time consuming and burdensome for patients.

Collateral pricing☆ [PDF]

Journal of Financial Economics, 2009
We examine how collateral affects the cost of debt capital. Theories based on borrower moral hazard and limited pledgeable income predict that collateral increases the availability of credit and reduces its price. Testing these theories is complicated by the very selection problem which they imply: creditors will demand collateral precisely from those ...

Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Regional Oxygen Saturation Based Cerebrovascular Reactivity Assessments in Chronic Traumatic Neural Injury versus in Health: A Prospective Cohort Study

Bioengineering
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2)-based cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) monitoring has enabled entirely non-invasive, continuous monitoring during both acute and long-term phases of care.

The Efficacy and Safety of Bevacizumab/Irinotecan/Temozolomide (BIT) for Relapsed/Refractory Neuroblastoma: The UK Children's Cancer and Leukaemia Group Experience

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with high‐risk neuroblastoma who either are refractory to induction chemotherapy or relapse following multi‐modal treatment have a dismal prognosis. Based on data from the BEACON trial, since 2021 the UK national guidelines recommend bevacizumab, irinotecan, and temozolomide (BIT) for patients with relapsed/refractory ...

Leveraging Function Intersectionality and Multi-Modal Cerebrovascular Reactivity Measures for the Derivation of Individualized Intracranial Pressure Thresholds in Acute Traumatic Neural Injury

Bioengineering
It has been proposed that subject-specific intracranial pressure (ICP) thresholds can be feasibly derived using the relationship between cerebrovascular reactivity and ICP.
