The functional bootstrap for boundary CFT

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020
We introduce a new approach to the study of the crossing equation for CFTs in the presence of a boundary. We argue that there is a basis for this equation related to the generalized free field solution. The dual basis is a set of linear functionals which

Establishment and verification of a radiomics nomogram to predict distant metastasis in patients with descending type of nasopharyngeal carcinoma

MedComm – Oncology, 2022
Distant metastasis is one of the main reasons for the failure of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) treatment, and descending type of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (type D NPC) is more prone to distant metastasis. Few people have explored the relationship between

Incidence and Severity of Carboplatin‐Associated Hearing Loss in Children With Cancer Assessed by the SIOP Boston 2012 Ototoxicity Criteria

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Platinum‐based chemotherapy is known to cause severe and debilitating hearing loss, but unlike cisplatin, the true incidence of carboplatin‐induced hearing loss remains unclear. We evaluated functional hearing outcomes in children receiving carboplatin to determine the incidence and severity of ototoxicity. Procedure We identified a
