ASSIST: Refinement of a Benefits Navigator Intervention Among Low‐Income Pediatric Oncology Families
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Children with cancer living in poverty experience worse survival and quality of life. Interventions connecting low‐income families to benefits (e.g., Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program [SNAP] improve health outcomes; yet nearly 50% of SNAP‐eligible pediatric oncology families are unenrolled.

Using Mean-Shift to Improve Active Shape Model Search
Journal of Algorithms & Computational Technology, 2011 In this paper we introduce a new method for locating shapes. The method is based on active shape model, and combining with mean shift to improve local search in the region around each landmark.

Arabic/Latin and Machine-printed/Handwritten Word Discrimination using HOG-based Shape Descriptor
ELCVIA Electronic Letters on Computer Vision and Image Analysis, 2015 In this paper, we present an approach for Arabic and Latin script and its type identification based on Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) descriptors. HOGs are first applied at word level based on writing orientation analysis.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is one of the most treatable forms of paediatric cancer; however, there is a substantial burden of treatment‐related toxicities (TRTs). In addition, the long‐term changes in children's health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) due to toxic treatments are not well understood.

Immunoglobulin Depletion and Recovery Following Blinatumomab in Infants With KMT2A‐Rearranged ALL
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Adding blinatumomab to standard chemotherapy for infants with KMT2A‐rearranged acute B‐cell lymphoblastic leukemia (KMT2A‐r B‐ALL) improves outcomes. Although blinatumomab impairs immunoglobulin G (lgG) production, increasing infection susceptibility, IgG recovery remains poorly understood.

Implicit Shape Parameterization for Kansei Design Methodology
Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2007 Implicit shape parameterization for Kansei design is a procedure that use 3D-models, or concepts, to span a shape space for surfaces in the automotive field. A low-dimensional, yet accurate shape descriptor was found by Principal Component Analysis of an

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Neurotoxicity is a rare, often dose‐limiting adverse effect of methotrexate (MTX) therapy that disproportionally affects Latino children. Factors contributing to the observed disparity are not well understood. This study leveraged admixture mapping to identify genetic regions associated with MTX‐related neurotoxicity susceptibility ...
