Increased Risk of Sarcomas in Children With Congenital Anomalies: Findings From the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Registry Linkage Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Procedure We

Optimizing the transplanting window for higher productivity of short and medium duration rice cultivars in Punjab, India using CERES-Rice model

Circular Agricultural Systems
The CERES-Rice (V4.7.5) model was used to identify the optimum transplanting window for higher productivity of rice in Indian Punjab. The model was first sensitized for 11 genetic coefficients and then these values were used for calibrating and ...

An Efficient Probabilistic Approach Based on Area Grey Incidence Decision Making for Optimal Distributed Generation Planning

IEEE Access, 2019
The increase in the scale of distribution networks significantly reduces the efficiency of intelligent planning for distributed generation (DG). To improve the efficiency of intelligent DG planning and avoid the impact of uncertainty concerning renewable

Enhanced spectral sensitivity of a chip-scale photonic-crystal slow-light interferometer [PDF]

, 2016
We experimentally demonstrate that the spectral sensitivity of a Mach-Zehnder (MZ) interferometer can be enhanced through structural slow light. We observe a 20 times enhancement by placing a dispersion-engineered-slow-light photonic-crystal waveguide in

The new cystometric index — index of bladder sensitivity

Urologicheskie vedomosti, 2013
Our analysis of the results of urodynamic studies in 341 patients with overactive bladder showed the possibility of using the new urodynamic index — the index of bladder sensitivity (IBS). IBS is calculated as the ratio of the maximal bladder capacity to bladder volume at the time of first desire to urinate. IBS values depend on the sex of the patient,

Effects of the Fluid Replacement Method During Online Hemodiafiltration on the Solute Removal Performance and Biocompatibility Using the Asymmetric Cellulose Triacetate Membrane

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pre‐dilution online hemodiafiltration (Pre‐HDF) is predominantly used in Japan, whereas post‐dilution online HDF (Post‐HDF) is more common in Europe. An asymmetric cellulose triacetate (ATA) membrane may improve biocompatibility.

A study on refractive index sensors based on optical micro-ring resonators

, 2017
In this work the behavior of optical micro-ring resonators, especially when functioning as refractive index sensors, is studied in detail. Two configurations are considered, namely a linear waveguide coupled to a circular one and two linear waveguides ...

Investigations of mode control in proton-implanted and oxide-confined VCSELs using PBGs: modelling and experiment [PDF]

, 2004
We have investigated theoretically the influence on transverse optical modes of a two-dimensional photonic crystal (PC) defect waveguide embedded into a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Publications in Uremic Toxins From 1991 to 2024

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Uremic toxins are a growing area of research in nephrology, with significant implications in the progression and treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the management of end‐stage kidney disease (ESKD). This bibliometric analysis aims to evaluate the global research trends, key contributors, and the impact of publications in ...

Global sensitivity analysis of computer models with functional inputs [PDF]

, 2007
Global sensitivity analysis is used to quantify the influence of uncertain input parameters on the response variability of a numerical model. The common quantitative methods are applicable to computer codes with scalar input variables. This paper aims to
