Evaluation of Dried Plasma Spot‐Based Quantification of Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein as a Disease‐Associated Biomarker in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) measured in dried plasma spots versus conventional plasma‐ and serum‐GFAP testing for assessment of disease severity in aquaporin‐4 immunoglobulin G–positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4‐IgG+ NMOSD).

Optimal control of nonlinear systems with input constraints using linear time varying approximations [PDF]

, 2016
We propose a new method to solve input constrained optimal control problems for autonomous nonlinear systems affine in control. We then extend the method to compute the bang-bang control solutions under the symmetric control constraints.

Modeling Progressive Brain Volume Losses in Chronic Moderate Severe Traumatic Brain Injury: Extensive, but Attenuating

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Progressive brain atrophy has now been widely observed in the chronic stages of moderate–severe traumatic brain injury (msTBI), but there is only coarse information regarding its prevalence and magnitude, and whether rate of atrophy accelerates or attenuates across time. We examined these questions in a Canadian inception cohort from

Utility of the APE2 Score as a Diagnostic Tool for Autoimmune Encephalitis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To retrospectively evaluate the diagnostic performance of the Antibody Prevalence in Epilepsy and Encephalopathy (APE2) score relative to clinician‐adjudicated autoimmune encephalitis (AE) and the Graus criteria in a tertiary neuroimmunology referral cohort, including antibody‐negative AE.

Enhance limit cycle oscillation in a wind flow energy harvester system with fractional order derivatives

Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2014
Advances in material science and mathematics in conjunction with technological needs have triggered the use of material and electric components with fractional order physical properties. This paper considers the mathematical model of a piezoelectric wind

Tracking Control for Nonlinear Networked Control Systems [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2014
We investigate the tracking control of nonlinear networked control systems (NCS) affected by disturbances. We consider a general scenario in which the network is used to ensure the communication between the controller, the plant and the reference system generating the desired trajectory to be tracked.

Clinical Impact of MGMT Promoter Methylation in IDH‐Mutant Gliomas: Influence of Threshold Selection and Clinical Confounding

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The clinical relevance of MGMT promoter methylation in IDH‐mutant gliomas remains controversial in the era of molecular classification. We aimed to systematically evaluate its clinical relevance by integrating quantitative assessment, cutoff exploration, and adjustment for clinical confounding.

Local Linear PID Controllers for Nonlinear Control [PDF]

Control and Intelligent Systems, 2005
Summary: Nonlinear PID design is difficult if one approaches the problem from a global design perspective. The authors propose coalescing the adaptive local linear modelling approach with traditional linear PID controller design techniques to arrive at a principled, intuitive, and simple nonlinear PID controller design methodology.

Diffusion Basis Spectrum Imaging of Tissue Microstructure and Early Treatment in Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Conventional MRI cannot resolve the coexisting pathological processes within multiple sclerosis tissue. Diffusion Basis Spectrum Imaging decomposes the diffusion signal into fiber, cell, and hindered ratios indexing axonal integrity, cellularity, and extracellular space, respectively.
