Frailty Predicts Incident Osteoporotic Fractures in Veterans with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with an increased risk of frailty and osteoporosis, but the relationship between frailty and incident osteoporotic fractures in RA is underexplored. Methods Data were from the Veterans Affairs (VA) Rheumatoid Arthritis Registry. Frailty was measured using the VA Frailty Index (VAFI).

Automated Hand Flexor Tendon–Thickness Measurement in Systemic Sclerosis
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) can affect flexor tendons, contributing to hand function problems and reduced quality of life. Tendon changes are currently assessed with ultrasonography and measured manually, a time‐consuming process prone to interobserver variability.

Approximate k-flat Nearest Neighbor Search
, 2015 Let k be a nonnegative integer. In the approximate k-flat nearest neighbor (k-ANN) problem, we are given a set P ⊂ Rd of n points in d-dimensional space and a fixed approximation factor c> 1.

Patients improve, patterns persist: longitudinal stability of RA joint involvement patterns
Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.Objective Rheumatoid arthritis is a heterogeneous disease. Data‐driven approaches, from synovial histology to joint involvement patterns (JIPs), have sought to define clinically meaningful subgroups. Whether these subgroups represent stable phenotypes or transient disease states remains unclear.

Observer‐Based Adaptive Event‐Triggered Tracking Control for Fuzzy TS Systems With Premise Mismatch
International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.This paper presents an adaptive logistic event‐triggered observer‐based tracking controller for Takagi‐Sugeno fuzzy systems under constrained inputs and network delays. Leveraging a hybrid LMI and Secretary Bird Optimization approach, this strategy significantly minimizes communication overhead and computational burden while ensuring optimal reference ...
