Parent‐to‐Child Information Disclosure in Pediatric Oncology
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Despite professional consensus regarding the importance of open communication with pediatric cancer patients about their disease, actual practice patterns of disclosure are understudied. Extant literature suggests a significant proportion of children are not told about their diagnosis/prognosis, which is purported to negatively ...

Zoomorphic variation with copulation duration in Centrobolus [PDF]
Arthropods, 2020 Centrobolus typically has prolonged copulation as a form of syn-copula mateguarding. Variations in the copulation duration were calculated and analysed in four species of the millipede genus Centrobolus.

Reducing variance in univariate smoothing
, 2007 A variance reduction technique in nonparametric smoothing is proposed: at each point of estimation, form a linear combination of a preliminary estimator evaluated at nearby points with the coefficients specified so that the asymptotic bias remains ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Cyclophosphamide (CY) is associated with potentially fatal cardiotoxicity, yet no electrocardiographic indices have been established for early detection of CY‐induced cardiomyopathy. This study aimed to determine whether corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation can predict early onset of CY‐related cardiac dysfunction in pediatric ...

ESTIMATION OF SAMPLE SPACING IN STOCHASTIC PROCESSES
Image Analysis and Stereology, 2017 Motivated by applications in electron microscopy, we study the situation where a stationary and isotropic random field is observed on two parallel planes with unknown distance. We propose an estimator for this distance.

α-Q fading model: Statistical analisis of the first order [PDF]
Tehnika, 2017 In this paper starting from the well known Nakagami-q fading model we are proposing its improvement by introducing an additional flexibility, in the form of a parameter, which is power of the modulus of complex Gaussian process, in order to provide ...
