Changes in Body Composition in Children and Young People Undergoing Treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ongoing evidence indicates increased risk of sarcopenic obesity among children and young people (CYP) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), often beginning early in treatment, persisting into survivorship. This review evaluates current literature on body composition in CYP with ALL during and after treatment.

A New Randomized Response Model

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 2006
SummaryWe suggest an efficient randomized response model that can easily be adjusted to be more efficient than the Warner, Mangat and Singh, and Mangat methods by selecting certain parameters of the proposed randomization device.

Randomized Predictive P-values: A Versatile Model Diagnostic Tool with Unified Reference Distribution

open access: yes, 2019
Examining residuals such as Pearson and deviance residuals, is a standard tool for assessing normal regression. However, for discrete response, these residuals cluster on lines corresponding to distinct response values.

sanon: An R Package for Stratified Analysis with Nonparametric Covariable Adjustment

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2015
Kawaguchi, Koch, and Wang (2011) provide methodology and applications for a stratified Mann-Whitney estimator that addresses the same comparison between two randomized groups for a strictly ordinal response variable as the van Elteren test statistic for ...

A Systematic Review of Evidence on the Clinical Effectiveness of Surveillance Imaging in Children With Medulloblastoma and Ependymoma

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Surveillance imaging aims to detect tumour relapse before symptoms develop, but it's unclear whether earlier detection of relapse leads to better outcomes in children and young people (CYP) with medulloblastoma and ependymoma. This systematic review aims to identify relevant literature to determine the efficacy of surveillance magnetic ...

Prognostic Impact of Treatment Modalities, Including Targeted Compartmental Radio‐Immunotherapy, in a Cohort of Neuroblastoma Patients With CNS Metastases at Relapse

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neuroblastoma (NB) with central nervous system (CNS) metastases is rare at diagnosis, but occurs more often during relapse/progression. Patients with CNS metastases face a dismal prognosis, with no standardized curative treatment available.
