ABSTRACT Background Graft‐versus‐host disease (GvHD) remains one of the most significant complications of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Abatacept, a selective T‐cell costimulation modulator, is a relatively novel prophylactic agent, though pediatric data remain limited.

Metric Methods in Calculus of Variations [PDF]
1. In each problem of calculus of variations there are four fundamental data: (I) A point-space S or a domain of a point-space. (II) A function φ from which there is derived a functional in a class P of entities of S whose dimensions are ≧ 1. With each element C of & there is associated a number, say λ>φ,(C), by a process of integration of ϕ along C ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Infant bone and soft tissue neoplasms present distinct clinical challenges and lack large‐scale data to inform treatment decisions. This study aims to characterize bone and soft tissue neoplasms in infants in Canada and to compare their outcomes with those of older pediatric patients.

Variationally-based hybrid boundary element methods
The hybrid stress boundary element method (HSBEM) was introduced in 1987 on the basis of the Hellinger-Reissner potential, as a generalization of Pian's hybrid finite element method.

ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Geometry of variational methods: dynamics of closed quantum systems
We present a systematic geometric framework to study closed quantum systems based on suitably chosen variational families. For the purpose of (A) real time evolution, (B) excitation spectra, (C) spectral functions and (D) imaginary time evolution, we ...

ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Self-Adaptive Implicit Methods for Monotone Variant Variational Inequalities
The efficiency of the implicit method proposed by He (1999) depends on the parameter heavily; while it varies for individual problem, that is, different problem has different "suitable" parameter, which is difficult to find.

ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

We establish the existence of positive solutions for the singular quasilinear Schrödinger equation \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -\Delta u -\Delta (u^{2})u=h(x) u^{-\gamma} + f(x,u)& \mbox{in } \Omega,\\ u(x)=0&\mbox{on }\partial \Omega, \end{cases ...
