Chemotherapy for Spinal Cord Intramedullary Pediatric Low‐Grade Glioma—A Systematic Literature Review

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric intramedullary low‐grade gliomas (PIMLGGs) are rare neoplasms that present unique clinical and management challenges. Although surgery remains the primary tool for tissue diagnosis and decompression, complete gross‐total resection is frequently unfeasible due to the infiltrative nature of these lesions.

Quasi-Keplerian Be-star Disks with Mimicking Viscosity

The Astrophysical Journal
Classical Be stars are fast-rotating B-type stars with gaseous quasi-Keplerian disks formed by equatorial ejection of material. While the viscous decretion disk (VDD) model reproduces many observed properties, the role of radiative line driving in ...

Quantifying collision-driven mass loss in supermassive star formation: The role of stellar structure and accretion

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Observations of high-redshift galaxies with JWST have renewed interest in scenarios where supermassive stars form via runaway stellar collisions in dense clusters. Yet, the impact of collision-driven mass loss on their growth remains uncertain.

Extreme Tidal Stripping May Explain the Overmassive Black Hole in Leo I: A Proof of Concept

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
A recent study found dynamical evidence of a supermassive black hole of ∼3 × 10 ^6 M _⊙ at the center of Leo I, the most distant dwarf spheroidal galaxy of the Milky Way. This black hole, comparable in mass to the Milky Way’s Sgr A*, places the system >2

Representation of Sickle Cell Disease Patients in Pediatric and Adult Care: What We Discovered Using Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside (i2b2) Data

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transitioning from pediatric to adult care is a high‐risk period for individuals with sickle cell disease (SCD). An initial observation at one academic medical center suggested a sex‐based disparity in clinic populations, prompting a national investigation.

Formulating Mass-loss Rates for Sun-like Stars: A Hybrid Model Approach

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We observe an enhanced stellar wind mass-loss rate from low-mass stars exhibiting higher X-ray flux. This trend, however, does not align with the Sun, where no evident correlation between X-ray flux and mass-loss rate is present.

Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Evidence that Mass Loss on the Red Giant Branch Decreases with Metallicity

The Astrophysical Journal
Mass loss on the red giant branch (RGB) influences stellar evolution, properties of stellar populations, and Galactic chemical enrichment, yet remains poorly constrained observationally. Current models provide limited insight into how stellar properties,

The Impact of Tenapanor on Body Composition and Blood Pressure in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients: A Pilot Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Instruction Tenapanor potentially affects fluid volume and blood pressure. This study explored its effects on these parameters in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD). Methods We conducted a single‐arm, prospective observational study that enrolled 10 patients on PD with hyperphosphatemia who were newly initiated on tenapanor.
