Accuracy of Numerical Solution to Dynamic Programming Models

Dynamic programming models with continuous state and control variables are solved approximately using numerical methods in most applications. We develop a method for measuring the accuracy of numerical solution of stochastic dynamic programming models ...

Charring Behaviour of Mass Timber: A Comparison of Thin Intumescent Coatings and Plasterboard

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study compares the charring behaviour of mass timber under varied heating conditions when protected by either different thin intumescent coating types or fire‐rated plasterboard layers. Bench‐scale fire experiments were conducted using the Heat‐Transfer Rate Inducing System (H‐TRIS).

Cardiovascular disease incidence and cancer risk in two large European prospective cohorts

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer share risk factors and biological mechanisms, raising questions about potential associations between the two, particularly regarding CVD duration and cancer onset. Whether CVD influences subsequent cancer risk, however, remains inconclusive.

Meat Intake and Risk of Gastric and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma in the European Prospective Investigation Into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) Study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Limited evidence links processed meat intake and non‐cardia gastric cancer, while esophageal adenocarcinoma is increasing in Western countries, where diets are typically high in red and processed meats. Using data from over 450,000 participants from a large prospective study, the authors examined meat consumption and the risk of gastric and esophageal ...

Adverse Health Events in Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia Patients Treated With Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors 2009–2019: A Real‐World Study From the UK's Haematological Malignancy Research Network

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Although tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) improve chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) outcome, long‐term effects remain unclear, particularly in real‐world settings. Here, the authors examined morbidity and mortality in CML patients treated with TKIs between 2009 and 2019 in the United Kingdom.

Derivation and Validation of a Predictive Model for Advanced Colorectal Neoplasia Among Average‐Risk Adults in China

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Efficient pre‐colonoscopy risk stratification tools are needed, especially in China. Using multicenter colorectal cancer screening data from Shandong Province, the authors developed and validated a risk prediction model for advanced colorectal neoplasia in asymptomatic individuals using sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle factors, and medical ...
