Discussing the Strehler-Mildvan model of mortality
Demographic Research, 2012 BACKGROUND Half a century ago Strehler and Mildvan (1960) have published the seminal paper that, based on some assumptions (postulates), theoretically 'justified' the Gompertz law of mortality.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Neuroblastoma's complex, heterogeneous biology poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, often requiring caregivers to absorb complex information and participate in time‐sensitive decisions. However, caregivers often feel unprepared to evaluate options.

Proportional hazards models with discrete frailty [PDF]
Lifetime Data Analysis, 2010 We extend proportional hazards frailty models for lifetime data to allow a negative binomial, Poisson, Geometric or other discrete distribution of the frailty variable. This might represent, for example, the unknown number of flaws in an item under test.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Neurotoxicity is a rare, often dose‐limiting adverse effect of methotrexate (MTX) therapy that disproportionally affects Latino children. Factors contributing to the observed disparity are not well understood. This study leveraged admixture mapping to identify genetic regions associated with MTX‐related neurotoxicity susceptibility ...

Impact of Metastatic Patterns on Survival and Response to Therapy in Neuroblastoma
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background While the presence of metastases in neuroblastoma (NB) is a well‐established prognostic factor, the clinical significance of dissemination patterns and tumour burden and their impact on response and survival remains poorly understood.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background General pediatricians often evaluate hematologic and oncologic presentations before subspecialty consultation, yet the 2025 Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) pediatric requirements reduce inpatient pediatric hematology/oncology (PHO) time, raising questions about resident readiness.

Properties and inference for proportional Hazard models
Revista Colombiana de Estadística, 2013 We consider an arbitrary continuous cumulative distribution function F(x) with a probability density function f(x) = dF(x)/dx and hazard function h f(x)=f(x)/[1-F(x)]. We propose a new family of distributions, the so-called proportional hazard distribution-function, whose hazard function is proportional to h f(x).

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Germ cell tumors (GCTs) often arise in the ovaries and testes (extracranial) but can also develop in the brain (intracranial). We examined the relationship of individual, family, and community‐level socioeconomic status (SES) with stage of disease at diagnosis in a cohort of pediatric patients with GCT from Children's Oncology Group
