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

Pediatric 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 ...

Effects of the Uncertainty of Wall Distance on the Simulation of Turbulence/Transition Phenomena

Aerospace
The uncertainty of the turbulence/transition model is a problem with relatively high attention in the CFD area. Wall distance is an important physical parameter in turbulence/transition modeling, and its accuracy has a large effect on numerical ...

Commensurate-incommensurate transition in the chiral Ashkin-Teller model

Physical Review Research, 2022
We investigate the classical chiral Ashkin-Teller model on a square lattice with the corner transfer matrix renormalization group algorithm. We show that the melting of the period-4 phase in the presence of a chiral perturbation takes different forms ...

Financial Burden Associated With Hospitalisation Among Families of Childhood Brain Tumours in Australia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

Equilibrium roughening transition in a 1D modified sine-Gordon model [PDF]

, 2004
We present a modified version of the one-dimensional sine-Gordon that exhibits a thermodynamic, roughening phase transition, in analogy with the 2D usual sine-Gordon model.

Germline TP53 Mutations Causing Diamond–Blackfan Anemia: A French Report

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diamond–Blackfan anemia is a rare congenital erythroblastopenia typically caused by mutations in ribosomal protein genes. Recently, gain‐of‐function mutations in TP53 have been identified as a novel cause of Diamond–Blackfan anemia. We report two French patients who both harbored a heterozygous TP53 deletion (NM_000546.5: c.1077delA; p ...

Estimating medical costs from a transition model

, 2008
Nonparametric estimators of the mean total cost have been proposed in a variety of settings. In clinical trials it is generally impractical to follow up patients until all have responded, and therefore censoring of patient outcomes and total cost will ...

The Transit Bottleneck Model

Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2012
AbstractThe paper addresses the issue of passenger waiting and being stored at a station platform, from which point they plan to board transit services towards egress stations. Each transit service has a specific set of downstream egress stations and is operated at given frequency using homogeneous vehicles of limited available capacity.

Feasibility and Safety of High‐Dose Proton Re‐Irradiation in Recurrent Pediatric Central Nervous System Tumors: A Single‐Institution Retrospective Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Pediatric central nervous system (CNS) tumors often recur despite multimodality therapy. Although re‐irradiation (re‐RT) has historically been limited by concerns for severe late toxicities, modern techniques have renewed interest in this approach. Proton therapy provides dosimetric advantages that may enable curative re‐treatment with
