Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Survival in Western Kenya: Reduction in Early Deaths and Treatment Abandonment

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background An earlier study on children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH) in Kenya reported a low event‐free survival (EFS), excess treatment abandonment, and high induction mortality.

Estimating Mann–Whitney-Type Causal Effects for Right-Censored Survival Outcomes

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference, 2019
Mann–Whitney-type causal effects are clinically relevant, easy to interpret, and readily applicable to a wide range of study settings. This article considers estimation of such effects when the outcome variable is a survival time subject to right ...

Basic theory of differential equations with mixed perturbations of the second type on time scales

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2019
In this paper, we develop the theory of differential equations with mixed perturbations of the second type on time scales. We give an existence theorem for differential equations with mixed perturbations of the second type on time scales under Lipschitz ...

Misperception of Body Weight After Childhood Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Misperception of body weight can negatively impact the weight management efforts of childhood cancer survivors (CCSs). Both being overweight or underweight are associated with chronic health conditions commonly observed in CCS; therefore, accurate weight perception is critical for reducing long‐term health risks.

Finite-time control of plasma glucose in insulin therapies for diabetes

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2018
To study the finite-time control of plasma glucose for diabetic patients with impulsive injections of insulin, we propose an impulsive differential equation model with initial and boundary conditions.

Tracking Health Related Quality of Life From Diagnosis to Follow‐Up Among Australian Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is one of the most treatable forms of paediatric cancer; however, there is a substantial burden of treatment‐related toxicities (TRTs). In addition, the long‐term changes in children's health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) due to toxic treatments are not well understood.

Relativistic Time Transfer for Inter-Satellite Links

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2016
Inter-Satellite links (ISLs) will be an important technique for a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) in the future. Based on the principles of general relativity, the time transfer in an ISL is modeled and the algorithm for onboard computation is ...
