Exploring Preferences for a Digital Single‐Session Intervention for Adolescent Siblings of Youth With Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Adolescent siblings of children with cancer are at elevated risk for psychosocial problems. Unfortunately, various barriers such as limited family time and resources, conflicting schedules, and psychosocial staffing constraints at cancer centers hinder sibling access to support.

Bounds for the Rate of Convergence in the Generalized Rényi Theorem

Mathematics, 2022
In the paper, an overview is presented of the results on the convergence rate bounds in limit theorems concerning geometric random sums and their generalizations to mixed Poisson random sums, including the case where the mixing law is itself a mixed ...

Efficacy and Tolerability of Topotecan/Cyclophosphamide/Dinutuximab in Relapsed and Refractory High‐Risk Neuroblastoma: A Multi‐Institutional Retrospective Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Chemoimmunotherapy with irinotecan, temozolomide, and dinutuximab (I/T/DIN) has emerged as first‐line therapy for relapsed/refractory (r/r) high‐risk neuroblastoma (HRNB) in North America. Topotecan and cyclophosphamide (T/C) are often used in combination with dinutuximab in the setting of lack of response, progression, or incomplete ...

The Logistic Distribution as a Limit Law for Random Sums and Statistics Constructed from Samples with Random Sizes

Mathematics
In the present paper, based on the representation of the logistic distribution as a normal scale mixture obtained by L. Stefanski in 1990, it is demonstrated that the logistic distribution can be limiting for sums of a random number of random variables ...

Cognitive Functioning in Vorinostat‐Treated Pediatric and Young Adult Patients Over the First 180 Days After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Cognitive and psychological difficulties could negatively interfere with treatment adherence and quality of life before and after hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Methods to mitigate these changes may have positive effects on treatment success.

Note on the bi-risk discrete time risk model with income rate two

Modern Stochastics: Theory and Applications, 2022
This article provides survival probability calculation formulas for bi-risk discrete time risk model with income rate two. More precisely, the possibility for the stochastic process $u+2t-{\textstyle\sum _{i=1}^{t}}{X_{i}}-{\textstyle\sum _{j=1}^{\lfloor

Upacicalcet: A Novel Intravenous Calcimimetic Agent for Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis With Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication in patients receiving maintenance dialysis, driven by calcium and phosphate metabolism disturbances. Calcimimetics are central to the management of SHPT by enhancing calcium‐sensing receptor sensitivity and reducing parathyroid hormone secretion.

On complete convergence of the sum of a random number of a stable type P random elements

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1995
Complete convergence for randomly indexed normalized sums of random elements of the form ∑j=1TnXj/ϕ(Tn) is established. The random elements {Xn} belong to a type p stable space and are assumed to be independent, but not necessarily identically ...
