ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.

Linking Unifying Theories of Program refinement
In this paper we consider three theories of programs and specifications at different levels of abstraction. The theories we focus on are: the basic Unifying Theories of Programming(UTP) model, which corresponds to the theories of VDM, B, and the refinement calculus; an extended theory that distinguishes abort from nontermination; and a further ...

Higher-form symmetries, Bethe vacua, and the 3d-3d correspondence
By incorporating higher-form symmetries, we propose a refined definition of the theories obtained by compactification of the 6d (2, 0) theory on a three-manifold M3.

A study on fundamentals of refined intuitionistic fuzzy set with some properties [PDF]
Zadeh conceptualized the theory of fuzzy set to provide a tool for the basis of the theory of possibility. Atanassov extended this theory with the introduction of intuitionistic fuzzy set.

Refining the theory of basic individual values.
We propose a refined theory of basic individual values intended to provide greater heuristic and explanatory power than the original theory of 10 values (Schwartz, 1992). The refined theory more accurately expresses the central assumption of the original theory that research has largely ignored: Values form a circular motivational continuum. The theory
