Control of uncertain compartmental systems [PDF]

, 2007
\ A study of the performance of mass control for compartmental systems, under the presence of uncertainties, is presented. Bounds for the asymptotical mass offset are derived as a functional of the uncertainty bounds. The obtained results are illustrated

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and Cardiovascular Adverse Events

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract In the last years, we assisted to a tremendous increase in therapeutic options for the management of cancers, with immunotherapy at the forefront of this innovation. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been developed to enhance the activity of the immune system against cancer cells (1) and the number of approvals for ICIs has rapidly ...

Clinical assessment and train-of-four measurements in critically ill patients treated with recommended doses of cisatracurium or atracurium for neuromuscular blockade: a prospective descriptive study

Annals of Intensive Care, 2017
Background Despite few studies, a monitoring of a neuromuscular blockade with a train of four (TOF) is recommended in intensive care unit (ICU). Our objective was to compare the results of ulnar and facial TOF measurements with an overall clinical ...

Dilated cardiomyopathy evaluation with Imagenomics: combining multimodal cardiovascular imaging and genetics

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Systematic approach to dilated cardiomyopathy diagnosis. Dilated cardiomyopathy is a clinical diagnosis characterized by the presence of left ventricular dilatation and systolic disfunction unexplained by abnormal loading conditions or coronary artery disease.

Genotype‐guided cardiac device intervention in LMNA‐related cardiac conduction disorder: The need for timely genetic testing

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Sudden cardiac death is a catastrophic event, making its prevention important. However, patient selection for primary prevention remains controversial. We report two cases of cardiac conduction disorder initially treated with permanent pacemaker implantation.

Deep versus moderate neuromuscular block during one-lung ventilation in lung resection surgery

Brazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2017
Background and objectives: Neuromuscular relaxants are essential during general anesthesia for several procedures. Classical anesthesiology literature indicates that the use of neuromuscular blockade in thoracic surgery may be deleterious in patients in ...

Systems level circuit model of C. elegans undulatory locomotion: mathematical modeling and molecular genetics [PDF]

Journal of Computational Neuroscience 24, 253-276 (2008), 2007
To establish the relationship between locomotory behavior and dynamics of neural circuits in the nematode C. elegans we combined molecular and theoretical approaches. In particular, we quantitatively analyzed the motion of C. elegans with defective synaptic GABA and acetylcholine transmission, defective muscle calcium signaling, and defective muscles ...

Benzochalcogenodiazoles, Synthesis, and Applications in Medicinal Chemistry and Photomedicine

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Benzochalcogenodiazoles (BXD) including benzoxadiazoles, benzothiadiazoles, and benzoselenadiazoles are initially mainly designed for optoelectronic materials as electron‐deficient cores. Nevertheless, they are now extending their application to biology.

Evaluation of a 1-DOF Hand Exoskeleton for Neuromuscular Rehabilitation [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
A low-cost 1-DOF hand exoskeleton for neuromuscular rehabilitation has been designed and assembled. It consists of a base equipped with a servo motor, an index finger part, and a thumb part, connected through three gears. The index part has a tri-axial load cell and an attached ring to measure the finger force. An admittance control scheme was designed
