Abatacept for Prophylaxis of Acute and Chronic Graft‐Versus‐Host‐Disease in Children Undergoing Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Cohort Studies

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Graft‐versus‐host disease (GvHD) remains one of the most significant complications of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Abatacept, a selective T‐cell costimulation modulator, is a relatively novel prophylactic agent, though pediatric data remain limited.

Quantifying Systematic Age Discrepancies in Very Young Star Clusters

The Astrophysical Journal
We infer the ages of three young stellar clusters—NGC 2004, NGC 7419, and NGC 2100—using Stellar Ages, a statistical algorithm designed to infer stellar population properties from color–magnitude diagrams.

Bone and Soft Tissue Neoplasms in Infants Versus Older Children: A Report From the Cancer in Young People in Canada Program

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Infant bone and soft tissue neoplasms present distinct clinical challenges and lack large‐scale data to inform treatment decisions. This study aims to characterize bone and soft tissue neoplasms in infants in Canada and to compare their outcomes with those of older pediatric patients.

Observational measurement of open stellar clusters: A test of Kaniadakis and Tsallis statistics

, 2010
Stellar-residual-radial-velocity data of 14 stellar open clusters with ages in a range spanning two decades (108 to 1010 yr) allows us to show that the Kaniadakis and Tsallis statistics are in agreement with observational measurements.

Neurocognitive, School‐Based, and Quality of Life Outcomes for Youth With Sickle Cell Disease and Thalassemia: A Scoping Review

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The medical burdens of sickle cell disease (SCD) and transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassemia (TDT) are chronic and cumulative, even in children. Yet the effects expand beyond medications and healthcare visits due to their impacts on school attendance, academic performance, and peer engagement.

Calibration of the [C/N] and [Y/Mg] chemical clocks with asteroseismic ages from the TESS space mission

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Stellar ages are typically very difficult to estimate for field stars. New empirical methods, based on abundance ratios of chemical elements, are emerging and need to be calibrated. Aims.

The nature and origin of disky elliptical galaxies [PDF]

, 2002
The observational trend that disky elliptical galaxies exhibit younger luminosity- weighted ages than boxy ellipticals is investigated. The presence of a possible young stellar disk embedded in these galaxies is explored by comparing kinematics derived ...

An Improved Stellar Age-Activity Relationship for Ages Beyond a Gigayear

, 2016
When the first bio-marker in an exoplanetary atmosphere is found, it will most likely be found in a planet orbiting an inactive, old nearby star. In order to assess this exoplanet's evolution, we will need to reliably estimate the age of the star, which ...

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...

A New Asteroseismic Kepler Benchmark Constrains the Onset of Weakened Magnetic Braking in Mature Sun-like Stars

The Astrophysical Journal
Stellar spin down is a critical yet poorly understood component of stellar evolution. In particular, results from the Kepler Mission imply that mature age, solar-type stars have inefficient magnetic braking, resulting in a stalled spin-down rate. However,
