Stressful Events Reported by Childhood Cancer Survivors and Community Controls From the St. Jude Lifetime (SJLIFE) Cohort: A Mixed Method Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Characterizing stressful events reported by childhood cancer survivors experienced throughout the lifespan may help improve trauma‐informed care relevant to the survivor experience. Methods Participants included 2552 survivors (54% female; 34 years of age) and 469 community controls (62% female; 33 years of age) from the St.

Unheard and Under‐Supported: Health‐Related Quality of Life in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults With Sickle Cell Disease

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an autosomal recessive hemoglobinopathy affecting millions of individuals worldwide. The clinical expression and psychosocial burden of SCD vary widely across geographical, cultural, and healthcare system contexts, underscoring the need for setting‐specific approaches to assessment.

Self-Centering in Cytoplasmic Fragments of Melanophores [PDF]

Molecular Biology of the Cell, 1998
The radial array of cytoplasmic microtubules (MTs) provides routes for intracellular transport and defines spatial organization of cytoplasm through interaction with molecular motors bound to membrane organelles (Kellogg et al., 1994 ; Hirokawa, 1998 ). The array is believed to be organized by the centrosome, which is capable of nucleating MTs.

Exploring Preferences for a Digital Single‐Session Intervention for Adolescent Siblings of Youth With Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Adolescent siblings of children with cancer are at elevated risk for psychosocial problems. Unfortunately, various barriers such as limited family time and resources, conflicting schedules, and psychosocial staffing constraints at cancer centers hinder sibling access to support.

Seismic design and performance of building structures with self-centering steel-concrete hybrid single-pier coupled walls

Resilient Cities and Structures
In response to the demand for seismic-resilient structures, various innovative solutions have emerged to reduce local damage and residual deformations, facilitating repair operations in the aftermath of high-intensity earthquakes. This paper examines the

Efficacy and Tolerability of Topotecan/Cyclophosphamide/Dinutuximab in Relapsed and Refractory High‐Risk Neuroblastoma: A Multi‐Institutional Retrospective Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Chemoimmunotherapy with irinotecan, temozolomide, and dinutuximab (I/T/DIN) has emerged as first‐line therapy for relapsed/refractory (r/r) high‐risk neuroblastoma (HRNB) in North America. Topotecan and cyclophosphamide (T/C) are often used in combination with dinutuximab in the setting of lack of response, progression, or incomplete ...

Seismic behavior and shear capacity calculation of a new type of self-centering steel-concrete composite joint

Reviews on Advanced Materials Science
Based on post-earthquake resilience principles, this study proposes a novel self-centering steel-concrete composite joint. The joint employs prestressed connections, where an assembled column with an embedded steel sleeve in the core region is connected ...

Clinical Course and Impact of Breaks in Therapy for Children With Relapsed/Refractory Solid Tumors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pediatric relapsed or refractory (R/R) solid tumors carry a dismal prognosis, and postrelapse patient experiences are not well described. We present postrelapse outcomes, including number of R/R events and subsequent therapy regimens.
