The greater tuberosity version angle: a novel method of acquiring humeral alignment during intramedullary nailing

open access: yesBone & Joint Open
Aims: This study aims to describe a new method that may be used as a supplement to evaluate humeral rotational alignment during intramedullary nail (IMN) insertion using the profile of the perpendicular peak of the greater tuberosity and its relation to

Equivalent non-Gaussian excitation method for moment calculation of non-Gaussian randomly excited systems

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015
Equivalent non-Gaussian excitation method is developed to obtain the statistical moments up to 4th order of the response of non-Gaussian randomly excited systems. The non-Gaussian excitation is prescribed by the probability density function and the power

Reducing Reparameterization Gradient Variance

open access: yes, 2017
Optimization with noisy gradients has become ubiquitous in statistics and machine learning. Reparameterization gradients, or gradient estimates computed via the "reparameterization trick," represent a class of noisy gradients often used in Monte Carlo ...

Health‐Related Quality of Life and Symptom Severity Among Patients With PIK3CA‐Related Overgrowth Spectrum: A Mixed‐Methods Study to Understand Real‐World Experience With Alpelisib Treatment

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
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.

Asymptotic variance of the Beurling transform [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
symptotic variance can be used to measure the boundary behaviour of conformal maps and Bloch functions. A formula due to McMullen connects it to the Hausdorff dimension expansion of limit sets for certain dynamical families of conformal maps.

‘They Need to Hear You Say It’: Healthcare Professionals’ Perspectives on Barriers and Enablers to End‐of‐Life Discussions With Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT End‐of‐life conversations with adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer rarely occur without the guidance of healthcare professionals. As a part of the ‘Difficult Discussions’ study, focused on palliative care and advance care planning discussions with AYAs with cancer, we investigated the factors that healthcare professionals identify ...

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

open access: yesPediatric 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

On the Variance of Estimates

open access: yesThe Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1949
In this paper recent results on the lower bound to the variance of unbiased estimates have been brought together. Some of them have been extended to sequential estimates and the others have been improved to some extent. In the last section a general method for generating a system of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a certain class of weight ...
