Undesired coupling to the surrounding environment destroys long-range correlations in quantum processors and hinders coherent evolution in the nominally available computational space. This noise is an outstanding challenge when leveraging the computation power of near-term quantum processors. It has been shown that benchmarking random circuit sampling with cross-entropy benchmarking can provide an estimate of the effective size of the Hilbert space coherently available.

Traditional milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) dosing of enoxaparin in neonates frequently fails to achieve target anti-Xa levels promptly, necessitating repeated laboratory monitoring and dose adjustments. This study investigated whether a personalized dosing strategy based on predicted individual clearance and volume of distribution could improve outcomes, comparing standard-of-care (SOC) mg/kg dosing to pharmacokinetic (PK) model-informed precision dosing (MIPD). A retrospective analysis was conducted on hospitalized neonates treated with enoxaparin at less than 44 weeks postmenstrual age from 2019 to 2022.

Article Synopsis
  • * Follow-up showed that most positive aPL were transient or low titer, while 10% met criteria for antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), which was linked to a significantly higher risk of recurrent VTE.
  • * The research highlights the need for further studies on managing VTE in children, particularly for those diagnosed with APS, given their higher recurrence risk.
