Plasma calprotectin to assess susceptibility to bloodstream infections during paediatric acute lymphoblastic leukaemia induction treatment

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Chemotherapy‐induced neutropenia, monitored by peripheral blood absolute neutrophil count (ANC), increases the risk of bloodstream infections (BSIs). However, ANC may not reflect the total neutrophil population, as it omits neutrophils at extravascular sites.

Infrastructure expansion, tourism and electoral outcomes

Economica, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper examines the electoral impact of economic growth through increased foreign tourism using data from Croatia. To identify causal effects, the paper applies an instrumental variable strategy, which uses variation in the ruggedness of the local terrain to estimate the network of least‐cost paths.

The dental plate on bichir pectoral fins: A unique dermal skeletal element bearing individual odontodes with tooth‐like replacement

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Pectoral fins of bichirs encompass the so‐called dental plates – unique dermal skeletal elements with individual odontodes identical to the oral teeth. Abstract The dermal skeleton appeared early in vertebrate evolution in the form of mineralized skin denticles composed of tooth‐like units—odontodes.

Improving the linear relaxation of maximum k-cut with semidefinite-based constraints

EURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2019
We consider the maximum k-cut problem that involves partitioning the vertex set of a graph into k subsets such that the sum of the weights of the edges joining vertices in different subsets is maximized.

Solving SDP's in Non-commutative Algebras Part I: The Dual-Scaling Algorithm [PDF]

Semidefinite programming (SDP) may be viewed as an extension of linear programming (LP), and most interior point methods (IPM s) for LP can be extended to solve SDP problems.However, it is far more difficult to exploit data structures (especially ...

ABSTRACT We describe the evolution of the market for municipal financial advice since the year 2000 and present new empirical facts. Using SEC municipal advisor filings, we show that the number of operating advisors has decreased over time. We document that withdrawals—either exits, reorganizations, or mergers—are concentrated among smaller firms and ...

A Small-Cell Caching System in Mobile Cellular Networks With LoS and NLoS Channels

IEEE Access, 2017
Small-cell caching utilizes the embedded storage of small-cell base stations (SBS) to cache popular network contents, for the purpose of reducing duplicate transmissions in mobile networks and offloading the data traffic from macro-cell base stations. In
