ABSTRACT Background PIK3CA‐related overgrowth spectrum (PROS) includes several rare overgrowth disorders resulting from somatic gain‐of‐function mutations in PIK3CA. Despite treatment advances, including the recent approval of alpelisib for PROS in the United States, literature detailing the patient experience with PROS is limited.

Total positivity, spherical series, and hypergeometric functions of matrix argument
Given a totally positive function K of two real variables, is there a method for establishing the total positivity of K in an “obvious” fashion? In the case in which K(x, y) = f(xy), where f is real-analytic in a neighborhood of zero, we obtain integral ...

ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic, inherited hemoglobinopathy that requires frequent hospitalization for disease‐related complications. Canadian data on inpatient care is limited. This study compared caregiver‐reported hospital experiences of children with SCD to those with cystic fibrosis (CF), a chronic, autosomal recessive ...

Bernstein operators of second kind and blending systems
We consider the fundamental polynomials associated with the Bernstein operators of second kind. They form a blending system for which we study some shape preserving properties. Modified operators are introduced; they have better interpolation properties.

Sign changes in linear combinations of derivatives and convolutions of Polya frequency functions
We obtain upper bounds on the number of sign changes of linear combinations of derivatives and convolutions of Polya frequency functions using the variation diminishing properties of totally positive functions.

Total positivity and reproducing kernels [PDF]
In this paper we investigate the relationship between total positivity and reproducing kernels. We extend the notion of total positivity to domains in the complex plane. In doing so, we also give a geometrical interpretation to certain Wronskians of reproducing kernels. These geometrical quantities are connected to Gaussian curvatures of Kahler metrics

ABSTRACT Background Osteosarcoma (OS) and Ewing sarcoma (EWS) are the most common primary bone cancers in children, but acute thrombosis is poorly characterized in this population. Our study evaluated the rates of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and associated risk factors in pediatric patients with bone sarcomas treated over a 10‐year period encompassing

ABSTRACT Background Children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are at risk of severe outcomes from SARS‐CoV‐2 (SCV2). In the post‐pandemic context, where most children have been infected with SCV2, there are limited data on whether vaccination remains beneficial in children with ALL.
