Perspiratio insensibilis and fluid and electrolyte balance in intensive care: a systematic review
Introduction In the field of intensive care, accurate measurement of perspiratio insensibilis, or insensible fluid loss, is crucial for managing fluid and electrolyte balance.

Comparison of discrete BGK-Shakhov system with DSMC [PDF]
Results obtained by numerically solving the discrete Boltzmann equation, using the Bhattnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) relaxation approximation with Shakhov target distribution, are compared to those obtained by the Direct Simulation Monte-Carlo (DSMC) method. The relaxation dynamics of the BGK-Shakhov system are also compared to DSMC results.

ABSTRACT Background Traditionally, Klinefelter syndrome (KS) was considered a clinical condition associated with hyperestrogenism. Aim To compare circulating sex steroids, particularly estrogens, in a cohort of KS and non‐KS hypogonadal men. Materials and Methods A cohort of hypogonadal men, treated and untreated, was prospectively enrolled in a real ...

After adjusting for confounders, the ibrutinib cohort had significantly better overall survival (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.39; 95% confidence interval, 0.23–0.68; p = 0.0008) than the allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) cohort.

Background Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer in men. For patients with high‐volume metastatic PCa (mPCa) who are fit for docetaxel, a triplet therapy regimen consisting of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), chemotherapy, and an androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI) is recommended.

Hybrid continuum–molecular modelling of multiscale internal gas flows [PDF]
We develop and apply an efficient multiscale method for simulating a large class of low-speed internal rarefied gas flows. The method is an extension of the hybrid atomistic–continuum approach proposed by Borg et al.

ABSTRACT Droughts increasingly threaten crop productivity in nutrient‐depleted tropical soils. We investigated how water limitation influences rhizomicrobial traits (microbial biomass and functional community composition, enzyme activities) and nitrogen (N) uptake in three sorghum genotypes Makueni local (Mkl), Gadam (Gd), and IESH 22012 (IESH) under ...

Reconfiguration of Mercury's Exosphere During Strong Space Weather Events
Abstract Mercury is exposed to various space weathering processes, which alter the surface and cause emission of atoms and molecules into the exosphere. The exosphere thus allows remote insights into the surface composition and erosion processes, with the emission of refractory elements such as Ca and Mg typically being dominated by micrometeoroid ...

Dynamic Sliding Mode Control of Nonlinear Systems Using Neural Networks [PDF]
In this paper, dynamic sliding mode control (DSMC) of nonlinear systems using neural networks is proposed. In DSMC, the chattering is removed due to the integrator placed before the input control signal of the plant.

A Two Degree of Freedom Approach for Discrete‐Time Sliding Mode Control
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a new two degree of freedom (2‐DOF) framework for discrete‐time sliding mode control (DSMC) that decouples the disturbed evolution from its nominal counterpart. The novel nominal/disturbed subsystem separation for DSMC can be used to define multiple closed‐loop specifications. The nominal regulation (or tracking) controller
