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.

Bayesian Estimation of Log-Normal Distribution Under Ranked Set Sampling With Missing Data
In this paper, joint Bayesian estimation of two parameters of a log-normal distribution is obtained based on simple random sampling (SRS) and ranked set sampling (RSS) with complete and missing data.

Parent‐to‐Child Information Disclosure in Pediatric Oncology
ABSTRACT Background Despite professional consensus regarding the importance of open communication with pediatric cancer patients about their disease, actual practice patterns of disclosure are understudied. Extant literature suggests a significant proportion of children are not told about their diagnosis/prognosis, which is purported to negatively ...

Half Logistic Inverted Nadarajah–Haghighi Distribution under Ranked Set Sampling with Applications
In this paper, we present the half logistic inverted Nadarajah–Haghigh (HL-INH) distribution, a novel extension of the inverted Nadarajah–Haghigh (INH) distribution. The probability density function (PDF) for the HL-INH distribution might have a unimodal,

Regression Estimators in Ranked Set, Median Ranked Set and Neoteric Ranked Set Sampling
This paper proposes new regression estimators in median ranked set and neoteric ranked set sampling using one and two auxiliary variables. The proposed estimators have large gain in presicion compared to the classical ranked set sampling (RSS) design. A simulation study is designed to see the performance of suggested estimators. A real data set example

ABSTRACT Objectives To identify predictors of chronic ITP (cITP) and to develop a model based on several machine learning (ML) methods to estimate the individual risk of chronicity at the timepoint of diagnosis. Methods We analyzed a longitudinal cohort of 944 children enrolled in the Intercontinental Cooperative immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) Study ...

Improving Negative Sampling for Word Representation using Self-embedded Features [PDF]
Although the word-popularity based negative sampler has shown superb performance in the skip-gram model, the theoretical motivation behind oversampling popular (non-observed) words as negative samples is still not well understood. In this paper, we start

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 ...
