On Networks with Active and Passive Agents [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
We introduce an active-passive networked multiagent system framework, which consists of agents subject to exogenous inputs (active agents) and agents without any inputs (passive agents), and analyze its convergence using Lyapunov stability.

A one‐year efficacy assessment of subcutaneous immunotherapy in dust mite allergic rhinitis patients based on clinical symptoms and objective biomarkers

Eye &ENT Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the 1‐year efficacy of subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) in treating dust mite‐induced allergic rhinitis (AR) and establish objective biomarkers for efficacy monitoring. Methods Fifty‐nine AR patients underwent 1‐year SCIT. Subjective symptoms were assessed via total nasal symptom score (TNSS), combined symptom/medication

Primary nonadherence to drugs prescribed by general practitioners: A Dutch database study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 89, Issue 1, Page 268-278, January 2023., 2023
Aim Primary nonadherence (PNA) is defined as not filling the first prescription for a drug treatment. PNA can lead not only to poor patient outcomes but also to exposure misclassification in written prescription databases. This study aims to estimate PNA in primary care in the Netherlands and to investigate associated factors. Methods Patients from the

Decreased endogenous nitric oxide production in acute decompensated heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Heart failure represents a substantial burden to both patients and healthcare systems worldwide. Nitric oxide (NO) dysregulation may play a key role in patients transitioning from chronic to acute heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Plasma nitrite (NO2−) is highly reflective of local nitric oxide production and has not

Adjuvant pharmacological strategies for the musculoskeletal system during long‐term space missions

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Despite 2 h of daily exercise training, muscle wasting and bone loss are still present after 6‐month missions to the international space station. Some crew members lose bone much faster than others. In preparation for missions to the Moon and Mars, space agencies are therefore reviewing their countermeasure portfolios.

An investigation into the transcription factors and regulatory mechanisms of Aspergillus

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Foodborne pathogen Aspergillus, a prevalent etiologic agent among filamentous fungi, are distinguished by a significant repertoire of transcription factors encoded within their genomes. These regulatory proteins are instrumental in orchestrating key biological processes, including cellular growth, secondary metabolite biosynthesis, mycotoxin production,
