Preoperative Cytopenia in Patients Affected by High‐Risk Neuroblastoma: Just a Matter of Platelets?
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background and Aims In patients affected by high‐risk neuroblastoma (HR‐NB), complete macroscopic resection (CMR) is associated with better outcomes. These patients are often cytopenic due to intensive induction regimens. The aim of the present study is to assess the impact of preoperative cytopenia on surgical outcome in patients with HR‐NB ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Children undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation often receive off‐label rituximab treatment for Epstein–Barr virus reactivation, using adult dosing without pediatric evidence. This project aims to develop a clinical decision support tool (CDSS) that provides evidence‐based dosing scenarios by analyzing real‐world patient data.

The Value of Singularities [PDF]
, 1995 We point out that spacetime singularities play a useful role in gravitational theories by eliminating unphysical solutions. In particular, we argue that any modification of general relativity which is completely nonsingular cannot have a stable ground ...
