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 ...

Luminosity Functions of the Host Galaxies of Supernova
The Astrophysical JournalWe present the luminosity functions and stellar mass functions of supernova (SN) host galaxies and test if they differ from the functions of normal field galaxies.

The Stellar Initial Mass Function in The Galactic Center [PDF]
, 2007 Massive stars define the upper limits of the star formation process, dominate the energetics of their local environs, and significantly affect the chemical evolution of galaxies. Their role in starburst galaxies and the early Universe is likely to be important, but we still do not know the maximum mass that a star can possess, i.e.``the upper mass ...

The Role of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Ataxia‐Telangiectasia
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Ataxia‐telangiectasia (A‐T) is a DNA repair disorder characterized by neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency, and cancer predisposition. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an established therapy in related disorders such as Fanconi anemia (FA) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), but its role in A‐T is unclear.

Microlensing Constraints on the Stellar and Planetary Mass Functions
The Astronomical JournalThe mass function (MF) of isolated objects measured by microlensing consists of both a stellar and a planetary component. We compare the microlensing MFs of A. Gould et al. and T. Sumi et al. to other measurements of the MF. The abundance of brown dwarfs

Effect of electric charge on conformal compact stars
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019 We investigate the effect of electric charge in anisotropic compact stars with conformal symmetry. We assume that the pressure and the density of the matter inside the stellar structure are large with strong gravitational fields.

Low-surface-brightness Galaxies are Missing in the Observed Stellar Mass Function
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We investigate the impact of the surface-brightness (SB) limit on the galaxy stellar mass functions (GSMFs) using galaxy catalogs generated from the Horizon Run 5 ( HR5 ) simulation.

Variations in the Milky Way’s Stellar Mass Function at [Fe/H] < −1
The Astrophysical Journal LettersWe present the first determination of the Galactic stellar mass function (MF) for low-mass stars (0.2–0.5 M _⊙ ) at metallicities [Fe/H] ≲ −1. A sample of ∼53,000 stars was selected as metal-poor on the basis of both their halolike orbits and their ...
