A002438(n+1) =(-1)^n*6^(2*n)*E(2*n,1/6), where E(n,x) denotes the n-th Euler polynomial. In general it appears that when k is a nonzero integer, the expansion of exp( Sum_{n >= 1} k^(2*n)*E(2*n,1/k)*(-x)^n/n ) has (positive) integer coefficients. See A255881 (k = 2), A255882(k = 3) and A255883 (k = 4).

FORMULA
O.g.f.: exp( 5*x + 205*x^2/2 + 22265*x^3/3 + 4544185 *x^4/4 + ... ) = 1 + 5*x + 115*x^2 + 7955*x^3 + 1179715*x^4 + ....
a(0) = 1 and for n >= 1, n*a(n) = Sum_{k = 1..n} (-1)^k*6^(2*k)*E(2*k,1/6)*a(n-k).
a(n) ~ 2^(4*n + 2) * 3^(2*n) * n^(2*n - 1/2) / (exp(2*n) * Pi^(2*n + 1/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 08 2019
