Evaluating the Utility of Paired Tumor and Germline Targeted DNA Sequencing for Pediatric Oncology Patients: A Single Institution Report

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic yield and utility of universal paired tumor–normal multigene panel sequencing in newly diagnosed pediatric solid and central nervous system (CNS) tumor patients and to compare the detection of germline pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants (PV/LPVs) against established clinical referral criteria for cancer ...

Image Bi-Level Thresholding Based on Gray Level-Local Variance Histogram

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
Thresholding is a popular method of image segmentation. Many thresholding methods utilize only the gray level information of pixels in the image, which may lead to poor segmentation performance because the spatial correlation information between pixels ...

The reinfection threshold [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical Biology, 2005
Thresholds in transmission are responsible for critical changes in infectious disease epidemiology. The epidemic threshold indicates whether infection invades a totally susceptible population. The reinfection threshold indicates whether self-sustained transmission occurs in a population that has developed a degree of partial immunity to the pathogen ...

Prevalence and Trajectory of Household Material Hardship Among Children With Advanced Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Families of children with advanced cancer living in poverty experience inferior outcomes including poor parent mental health and worse child quality of life. Household material hardship (HMH: food, housing, transportation, and/or utility insecurity) is a modifiable poverty exposure—and potential intervention target—that ...

FADIT: Fast Document Image Thresholding

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2020
We propose a fast document image thresholding method (FADIT) and evaluations of the two classic methods for demonstrating the effectiveness of FADIT. We put forward two assumptions: (1) the probability of the occurrence of grayscale text and background ...

Design of a medical decision-supporting system for the identification of brain tumors using entropy-based thresholding and non-local texture features

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023
IntroductionBrain tumors arise due to abnormal growth of cells at any brain location with uneven boundaries and shapes. Usually, they proliferate rapidly, and their size increases by approximately 1.4% a day, resulting in invisible illness and ...

The Fate (Outcome) of Clinically Apparent Single Lesion and Oligofocal Nephroblastomatosis Treated According to SIOP/GPOH Protocols for Wilms Tumor

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The management of clinically apparent single lesions or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis, a facultative precursor of nephroblastoma, remains debated. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 37 patients with clinically apparent single or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis (two to three lesions per kidney) among 2347 patients registered between
