Implementing Health‐Related Quality of Life Assessment in Pediatric Oncology: A Feasibility Study
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background There is growing interest in embedding health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) assessment and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) within clinical cancer care. This study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability, and usability of implementing an electronic PROM (ePROM) platform to measure HRQoL in children with cancer ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Parents of children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often experience significant caregiver burden and disruption to their well‐being. While parent quality of life (QoL) during treatment is well characterized, little is known about outcomes during early survivorship.

Rapid Response to Trametinib Combined With Chemotherapy for Infant BRAF‐Fused Chiasmatic Glioma
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Infants, less than 1 year, with chiasmatic gliomas (ICG) present a major therapeutic challenge due to large tumor size, decreased vision, rapid progression, and poor response to vincristine/carboplatin chemotherapy. The majority have a BRAF fusion, which may respond to downstream MEK inhibitors but response time is slow. There are no safety or

Robust chemical circuits [PDF]
Biosystems, 2019 We introduce a new motif for constructing robust digital logic circuits using input/output chemical reaction networks. These chemical circuits robustly handle perturbations in input signals, initial concentrations, rate constants, and measurements.

The robustness of stochastic switching networks [PDF]
, 2009 Many natural systems, including chemical and biological systems, can be modeled using stochastic switching circuits. These circuits consist of stochastic switches, called pswitches, which operate with a fixed probability of being open or closed. We study

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Genotype by environment interaction and breeding for robustness in livestock
Frontiers in Genetics, 2015 The increasing size of the human population is projected to result in an increase in meat consumption. However, at the same time, the dominant position of meat as the centre of meals is on the decline. Modern objections to the consumption of meat include

We propose a refinement of the maxmin approach to distributional robustness. A mechanism's payoff guarantee over an ambiguity set is robust if the guarantee is approximately satisfied at priors near the ambiguity set (in the weak topology). We show that many maxmin-optimal mechanisms in the literature give payoff guarantees that are not robust.

Robust Superpixel Tracking [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 2014 While numerous algorithms have been proposed for object tracking with demonstrated success, it remains a challenging problem for a tracker to handle large appearance change due to factors such as scale, motion, shape deformation, and occlusion. One of the main reasons is the lack of effective image representation schemes to account for appearance ...

Residual effect on the robustness of multiqubit entanglement
, 2010 We investigate the relation between the entanglement and the robustness of a multipartite system to a depolarization noise. We find that the robustness of a two-qubit system in an arbitrary pure state depends completely on its entanglement. However, this
