Real-time Projected Gradient-based Nonlinear Model Predictive Control with an Application to Anesthesia Control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Medical drug infusion problems pose a combination of challenges such as nonlinearities from physiological models, model uncertainty due to inter- and intra-patient variability, as well as strict safety specifications. With these challenges in mind, we propose a novel real-time Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) scheme based on projected gradient

Development and validation of a Score for Preoperative Prediction of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (SPOSA) and its perioperative outcomes

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2017
Background Postoperative respiratory complications (PRCs) are associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and hospital costs. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), often undiagnosed in the surgical population, may be a contributing factor.

The anesthetic sevoflurane induces tau trafficking from neurons to microglia

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Using their previously developed nanobeam-sensor technology to detect tau protein in the blood, Yuanlin Dong et al. find that the anaesthetic sevoflurane induces trafficking of tau from neurons to microglia in mice.
