Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Blinatumomab is a bispecific T‐cell engager approved for the treatment of pediatric B‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B‐ALL). Outpatient home infusion reduces hospitalization burden and optimizes resource utilization, but is logistically challenging.

On distance in total variation between image measures [PDF]
Statistics & Probability Letters, 2017 We are interested in the estimation of the distance in total variation $$ Δ:= \|P_{f(X)} - P_{g(X)}\|_{\mathrm var} $$ between distributions of random variables $f(X)$ and $g(X)$ in terms of proximity of $f$ and $g.$ We propose a simple general method of estimating $Δ$.

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 ...

Approximating the Total Variation Distance between Gaussians
CoRRThe total variation distance is a metric of central importance in statistics and probability theory. However, somewhat surprisingly, questions about computing it algorithmically appear not to have been systematically studied until very recently. In this paper, we contribute to this line of work by studying this question in the important special case of

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Procedure We

Sufficient burn-in for Gibbs samplers for a hierarchical random effects model
, 2004 We consider Gibbs and block Gibbs samplers for a Bayesian hierarchical version of the one-way random effects model. Drift and minorization conditions are established for the underlying Markov chains.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
