Scheduling Dosage of Proton Pump Inhibitors Using Constrained Optimization With Gastric Acid Secretion Model [PDF]
Dosage schedule of the Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) is critical for gastric acid disorder treatment. In this paper, we develop a constrained optimization based approach for scheduling the PPIs dosage. In particular, we exploit a mathematical prediction model describing the gastric acid secretion, and use it within the optimization algorithm to predict

ABSTRACT Trichosanthes kirilowii is a plant used in traditional Chinese medicine. Its fruits, seeds, and roots can all be used medicinally. The fruit of T. kirilowii has a moistening effect on the lung for arresting cough. However, there is no scientific research to prove that the fruit of T. kirilowii can improve asthma. Herein, we evaluated whether T.
