Aim of this study was to compare the outcomes of transplantation by donor source and to help select the best alternative donor in children with leukemia. Donor sources included matched related donor (MRD, n = 35), allele-matched unrelated donor (M-UD, n = 10) or -mismatched (MM)-UD (n = 13) or unrelated umbilical cord blood (UCB, n = 11). UCB group had a significantly higher incidence of grade ...

We discuss the problem of specializing a deenite program with respect to sets of positive and negative examples, following BI94]. This problem is very relevant in the eld of inductive learning. First we show that there exist sets of examples that have no correct program, i.e., no program which implies all positive and no negative examples. Hence it only makes sense to talk about specialization ...

The topic of convex and nonconvex mapping has many applications in engineering applied mathematics. Aumann fuzzy integrals are the most significant interval operators that allow classical theory to be generalized. This paper considers well-known Hermite–Hadamard (HH) type associated inequalities. With help newly introduced number valued up down convexity (UD-convexity), we increase this mileage...

Background: Uninvestigated dyspepsia (UD) is common and only 26.4% of these are peptic ulcer disease, while 50% are non-ulcer dyspepsia. A recent study found that nephrolithiasis with urinary tract infection may have the dyspeptic symptoms. Objective: The authors searched for any associations between repeated UD and pyuria, hematuria and other factors. Material and Method: A case-control study ...

If ud(N) is the number of permutations in the symmetric group S(N) with no decreasing subsequence of length d+ 1, then ud(N) ∼ (2π) 1−d 2 „ d−1

Abstract. A seminal theorem due to Weyl [14] states that if (an) is any sequence of distinct integers, then, for almost every x ∈ R, the sequence (anx) is uniformly distributed modulo one. In particular, for almost every x in the unit interval, the sequence (anx) is uniformly distributed modulo one for every computable sequence (an) of distinct integers. Call such an x UD random. Here it is sho...

Neutron beta decay and the current determination of V ud. Abstract Measurements of neutron beta decay observables required to determine |V ud | are reaching the 0.1% accuracy. In this paper we review the calculation of the decay rate of this process, discuss its relevant uncertainties, and obtain an expression that is precise at the 10 −4 level. Our analysis clearly shows the necessity of more ...

This article describes some of the features of a sophisticated language and environment designed for experimentation with unification-oriented linguistic descriptions. The system, called UD, has to date been used successfully as a development and prototyping tool in a research project on the application of situation schemata to the representation of real text, and in extensive experimentation i...

Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) is frequently considered as treatment for relapsed childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). For patients without a matched sibling donor, SCT from unrelated donors (UD-SCT) has been increasingly performed during the past years. However, UD-SCT–related mortality and morbidity is still considerable, and the question remains as to which patients are ...

PURPOSE This study evaluated the long-term effects of alloxan-induced diabetes in rat liver. METHODS Thirty nondiabetic control rats (NC) and 30 untreated diabetic (UD) rats were divided into three subgroups sacrificed after 6, 14, or 26 weeks. Clinical and laboratory parameters were assessed. Fresh liver weight and its relationship with body weight were obtained, and liver tissue was analyze...
