Upstream of $x=0$, the afferent arteriole carries the afferent whole-blood flow through a tubuloglomerular-feedback (TGF) regulated hydraulic resistance that equals `baseline_afferent_arteriolar_resistance_mmhg_min_ml_blood` ($\\text{mmHg}\\cdot\\text{min/mL}$ of whole blood) plus `tgf_afferent_resistance_slope_mmhg_min2_ml2` ($\\text{mmHg}\\cdot\\text{min}^2/\\text{mL}^2$) multiplied by the integrated glomerular filtration rate (GFR), determining the entrance glomerular capillary hydrostatic pressure $P_{\\text{GC}}(0)$.

The capillary wall is completely impermeable to erythrocytes, while local transcapillary protein flux per unit length follows the linear-mean Kedem-Katchalsky relation combining convective solvent drag at the arithmetic mean membrane protein concentration with linear transcapillary diffusion. Filtered protein mixes uniformly in Bowman's space at steady-state concentration $C_{\\text{BS}}$ ($\\text{g/dL}$, generating oncotic pressure $\\pi_{\\text{BS}}$), where total transcapillary protein filtration (in $\\text{g/min}$) is balanced by the sum of bulk convective outflow into the proximal tubule ($\\text{GFR}\\cdot C_{\\text{BS}}$ converted from $\\text{g/dL}$ to $\\text{g/min}$) and saturable parietal/proximal-neck megalin-cubilin endocytosis following Michaelis-Menten kinetics with maximum uptake rate `capsular_endocytosis_vmax_g_min` ($\\text{g/min}$) and half-saturation concentration `capsular_endocytosis_km_g_dl` ($\\text{g/dL}$) acting on $C_{\\text{BS}}$. Along $x \\in [0, 1]$, local axial Poiseuille pressure drop per unit length equals baseline hydraulic resistance `baseline_tuft_axial_resistance_mmhg_min_ml` multiplied by local whole-blood flow and local relative blood viscosity, where local relative blood viscosity is the product of the inverse local plasma volume fraction ratio (relative to the afferent entrance) and an exponential Fahraeus-Lindqvist erythrocyte crowding factor with exponent `hematocrit_viscosity_exponent_gamma` multiplying the local hematocrit rise above `arterial_hematocrit_fraction`.

In any retinal cell already carrying one inactivated *RB1* allele, somatic inactivation of the second *RB1* allele occurs via two mutually exclusive pathways: (a) intragenic point/indel mutation with probability `second_hit_somatic_probability_u2`, after which the double-null cell survives microenvironmental surveillance to form an independent macroscopic tumor focus with probability `microenvironmental_focus_survival_prob_psurv`, or (b) chromosomal mitotic loss of heterozygosity (LOH) with probability `second_hit_mitotic_loh_probability_uloh`, which co-homozygoses linked chromosomal modifiers and survives to form a macroscopic focus with probability `loh_focus_survival_prob_psurv_loh`. Conversely, in any retinal precursor lineage that does not inherit a first hit, the lineage independently acquires a somatic first hit with probability `first_hit_somatic_probability_u1` and expands into a premalignant clone of `premalignant_first_hit_clonal_daughter_cells_m` daughter cells prior to terminal differentiation (forming a focus if at least one daughter cell in the clone acquires a surviving second hit via either second-hit pathway). A proband presents from clinically unaffected parents who already have `unaffected_older_siblings_count` ($2$) unaffected older full siblings. Four mutually exclusive etiological categories govern the proband: (1) inherited constitutional heterozygosity from a parent with pre-epiblastic soma-germ mosaicism (prior probability that the transmitting parent is a mosaic is `parental_gonadal_mosaic_prior` with mutant gamete fraction `parental_gonadal_mosaic_mutant_gamete_fraction`, where each birth in such a family independently inherits the constitutional allele with probability `parental_gonadal_mosaic_mutant_gamete_fraction`, and where that parent's own retinal precursor lineages carry the first hit in a fraction equal to `parental_soma_germ_mosaic_sharing_fraction` times `parental_gonadal_mosaic_mutant_gamete_fraction` while the remaining parental retinal precursors are wild-type, conditioning on the transmitting parent being clinically unaffected as well as the other parent being a wild-type unaffected individual); (2) a de novo zygotic constitutional heterozygote (prior probability `denovo_constitutional_germline_prior_pi_germ`), where 100% of the proband's embryonic lineages inherit the first hit while both parents and siblings have only wild-type sporadic risk; (3) a post-zygotic embryonic mosaic in the proband arising at symmetric binary cleavage division $k \\in \\{1, \\dots, M_{\\text{mos}}\\}$ (`mosaic_cleavage_divisions_count`), with prior probability doubling at each division from `first_cleavage_mosaic_prior_pi_mos1` at $k=1$ and rendering a symmetric binary cleavage fraction $f_k = 2^{-k}$ of embryonic lineages in each eye and in the germline carriers of the first hit (while the remaining $1 - f_k$ retinal lineages in each eye are wild-type and subject to the two-hit sporadic pathway); and (4) a constitutionally wild-type sporadic individual (complementary prior). In post-zygotic embryonic mosaics, *RB1*-mutant hematopoietic stem cells exhibit a relative clonal expansion advantage `hematopoietic_mosaic_mutant_selection_factor` ($s_{\\text{hem}}$) over wild-type stem cells during bone-marrow colonization (amplifying the embryonic mutant-to-wild-type cell ratio in peripheral blood by factor $s_{\\text{hem}}$ relative to the cleavage ratio $f_k : (1 - f_k)$). Furthermore, in any peripheral-blood leukocyte subpopulation that did not inherit an embryonic *RB1* mutation (in both post-zygotic embryonic mosaics and constitutionally wild-type sporadic individuals), background somatic hematopoiesis independently generates a heterozygous *RB1* mutation in fraction `background_somatic_leukocyte_mutant_cell_fraction` of those wild-type blood cells. During subsequent leukocyte maturation of all mutant-carrying peripheral-blood leukocytes (whether constitutional, embryonic-mosaic, or background somatic), a fraction `leukocyte_mitotic_loh_conversion_fraction` undergo mitotic recombination to copy-neutral LOH (carrying two mutant *RB1* copies per diploid leukocyte instead of one, whereas retinal and germ lineages do not experience hematopoietic selection, background leukocyte mutation, or leukocyte LOH). Targeted clinical sequencing of the proband's diploid peripheral-blood leukocyte DNA samples `proband_blood_ngs_read_depth` ($110$) independent *RB1* gene copies. With probability `ngs_allele_dropout_prob`, complete mutant-allele capture dropout occurs so that all sequenced reads originate from wild-type templates; otherwise, during library PCR amplification prior to read sampling, mutant *RB1* genomic templates amplify with relative efficiency `mutant_allele_pcr_amplification_efficiency_ratio` compared to wild-type templates (scaling the post-PCR mutant-to-wild-type template ratio by that factor), and reads are sampled binomially from the resulting post-PCR amplicon pool, where each true mutant amplicon read is called wild-type with false-negative error rate `ngs_per_read_false_negative_error_rate` and each true wild-type amplicon read (including under allele dropout) is miscalled as mutant with false-positive base-calling error rate `ngs_per_read_false_positive_error_rate`. The blood NGS assay is reported as negative (fewer than `proband_blood_ngs_variant_call_threshold_reads` $= 4$ called mutant reads). Primary tumor foci in left and right eyes follow conditionally independent Poisson processes, and a heterozygous diploid germ cell transmits the mutant allele to an offspring with Mendelian probability $1/2$.\n\n## Input Parameters\n```json\n{\n  \"retinal_retinoblast_pool_n\": 2000000.0,\n  \"first_hit_somatic_probability_u1\": 1.8e-06,\n  \"second_hit_somatic_probability_u2\":

Within a glioblastoma region of interest, $B_1^+$ transmit field inhomogeneity scales all prescribed nominal flip angles by $\\kappa_{B1} = 0.90$. In the pre-contrast baseline scan at nominal flip angles $\\alpha_{\\text{nom},1} = 5.0^\\circ$ and $\\alpha_{\\text{nom},2} = 20.0^\\circ$, the measured steady-state signals are $S_{\\text{pre}}(\\alpha_{\\text{nom},1}) = 164.00$ and $S_{\\text{pre}}(\\alpha_{\\text{nom},2}) = 227.50$ (scanner units). Following intravenous administration of a gadolinium contrast agent (clinical bolus regime $[\\text{Gd}]_{\\text{tot}} \\in (0, 1.8)\\text{ mM}$ expressed as voxel-averaged tissue concentration in $\\text{mmol}$ per liter of total tissue), both the gadolinium chelate and serum albumin are physically confined to the accessible extracellular fluid space occupying volume fraction $v_{\\text{acc}} = 0.50$ of the voxel. Within this accessible fluid space, total local albumin concentration is $[P_{\\text{alb,tot,loc}}] = 0.90\\text{ mM}$ (one primary chelate binding site per albumin molecule), but endogenous non-esterified fatty acids competitively occlude a fraction $\\phi_{\\text{FA}} = 0.20$ of those binding sites, leaving only the unoccluded fraction $1 - \\phi_{\\text{FA}}$ available to undergo reversible $1:1$ mass-action binding with the gadolinium chelate at local fluid dissociation constant $K_{d,\\text{loc}} = 0.40\\text{ mM}$. Transcytolemmal water exchange is in the fast-exchange limit across the entire voxel, with longitudinal relaxivities $r_{1,\\text{free}} = 4.00\\text{ mM}^{-1}\\cdot\\text{s}^{-1}$ for unbound gadolinium and $r_{1,\\text{bound}} = 9.50\\text{ mM}^{-1}\\cdot\\text{s}^{-1}$ for albumin-bound gadolinium (defined per $\\text{mM}$ of voxel-averaged free or bound gadolinium), while the microvascular susceptibility transverse relaxation rate increment depends on voxel-averaged total tissue gadolinium concentration $[\\text{Gd}]_{\\text{tot}}$ with linear coefficient $r_{2,1}^* = 18.0\\text{ mM}^{-1}\\cdot\\text{s}^{-1}$ and quadratic mesoscopic susceptibility coefficient $r_{2,2}^* = 16.0\\text{ mM}^{-2}\\cdot\\text{s}^{-1}$. During the bolus plateau, the signal measured at $\\alpha_{\\text{nom},2} = 20.0^\\circ$ is $S_{\\text{post}}(\\alpha_{\\text{nom},2}) = 380.00$.

Pool the $K = 4$ bridged historical trials via DerSimonian-Laird random-effects meta-analysis to obtain $\\hat{\\tau}_{\\text{DL}}^2$, $\\hat{\\delta}_{PC,\\text{RE}}$, and $\\text{SE}_{PC,\\text{RE}}$.
