Effect of hospitalization
Hospitalization can negatively impact children and their parents psychologically and emotionally. For children, being separated from parents and in a strange environment can cause fear, anxiety, and stress. Parents also experience anxiety, guilt, and feelings of inadequacy when their child is hospitalized. Pediatric nurses can help minimize these impacts by encouraging parental participation in childcare, preparing children for procedures, and promoting self-care, play, and socialization for the child during their hospital stay. With a supportive approach, hospitalization can also have benefits like receiving treatment, preventing disease spread, and providing psychological support.
Therapeutic play and child life programs
Therapeutic play and child life programs aim to help pediatric patients cope with hospitalization through play. These programs employ child life specialists who work to prevent emotional distress, provide a comforting environment for play and socialization, allow children choices in activities, and continue their education. The goals are to prepare children for medical procedures, provide alternative spaces to the patient room, and offer developmentally-appropriate programming.

Cancer in Children - Denise Sheer
This document discusses common malignancies in children and embryonal tumors specifically. It outlines four main embryonal tumors - Wilms tumor, retinoblastoma, neuroblastoma, and medulloblastoma. For each tumor, it describes the clinical presentation, cellular origins based on embryonic development, molecular pathology including key genetic drivers, and current treatment approaches. It concludes by noting certain genetic predisposition syndromes can increase the risk of developing cancer in childhood.
Paediatric oncology
This document provides information on paediatric oncology and various childhood cancers. It discusses that benign tumors are more common than malignant tumors in children, but cancer is a leading cause of death after accidents. The most common malignant tumors in children arise from hematopoietic, nervous and soft tissues. It then describes several specific childhood cancers like acute lymphoblastic leukemia, Wilms tumor, neuroblastoma, Hodgkin's lymphoma, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. For each cancer, it discusses clinical features, diagnostic evaluation, classification, treatment and prognosis.
Oncology
Cancer therapy for children, also called pediatric oncology, involves painful but potentially life-saving treatments like chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery to remove tumors. The main goals are to kill cancer cells while limiting harm to normal, healthy cells and tissues. Common treatments include chemotherapy which uses drugs to destroy cancer cells but can have severe short and long-term side effects; radiation therapy which uses high-energy rays to shrink tumors but also risks damaging normal cells; and surgery which aims to remove as much of the visible cancer as possible. It is important to seek treatment at accredited pediatric cancer centers that specialize in caring for children with cancer and supporting them emotionally.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
