Time Toxicity in Wilms Tumor: Quantifying the Burden of Healthcare Interaction in the First Year After Diagnosis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Wilms tumor (WT) treatment imposes a significant time burden on patients and their families. Time toxicity is a patient‐centered metric that quantifies the burden of healthcare interaction. We sought to define time toxicity in the first year after diagnosis of WT and hypothesized that it would increase as tumor stage and treatment ...

The Effect of Different Parameters on Shape Memory Alloys

Sakarya Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü Dergisi, 2020
Shape memory alloys’ characteristics are different from ordinary materials because they can memorize their pre-determined shape, thus they are excellent candidates for different applications.

Genetic parameters for the external udder morphology in commercial farms of Istrian sheep from Croatia [PDF]

Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2019
Istrian sheep is a local breed with superior milk yield and composition. Excellent udder shape of this breed needs to be preserved in future, since it’s economic value resides within the artisanal cheese production. Genetic parameters for the teat angle (

Heterogeneity in the Global Practice of Central Nervous System Staging in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) involvement in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is assessed by cell counting and cytomorphology from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and is used for treatment stratification worldwide. The ratio of “CNS2” patients in clinical trials ranges from 3% to 40%, with unclear prognostic significance ...

A Meshless Radial Point Interpolation Method for Solving Fractional Navier–Stokes Equations

Axioms
This paper aims to develop a meshless radial point interpolation (RPI) method for obtaining the numerical solution of fractional Navier–Stokes equations. The proposed RPI method discretizes differential equations into highly nonlinear algebraic equations,

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Influence of grain shape on stress-dilatancy parameters

Granular Matter, 2021
This study experimentally investigates the influences of grain shape and gradation on stress-dilatancy parameters. For this purpose, consolidated-drained triaxial tests are conducted on five different granular materials. Specimens are sheared following two different stress paths; axial compression and lateral extension, in order to monitor the ...
