Outcomes and Surgical Management of Malignant Rhabdoid Tumor of the Kidney: A Report From the Pediatric Surgical Oncology Research Collaborative

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Malignant rhabdoid tumor of the kidney (MRTK) is a rare, aggressive tumor seen in young children. The optimal timing of resection for locally advanced tumors is not well‐defined. The purpose of this study is to evaluate modern oncologic outcomes and the impact of surgical timing. Methods A multicenter retrospective review was performed

A New Observer Design for Fuzzy Bilinear Systems with Unknown Inputs

Designs, 2017
An observer design for a class of nonlinear systems with unknown inputs is considered. Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy bilinear systems represent a wide class of nonlinear systems, and these systems with unknown inputs are an ideal model for many physical systems ...

Stabilization of Networked Control Systems with Sparse Observer-Controller Networks

, 2014
In this paper we provide a set of stability conditions for linear time-invariant networked control systems with arbitrary topology, using a Lyapunov direct approach.

Observer Design for MIMO Non-Uniformly Observable Systems [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2012
The design of high gain observers is usually based on normal forms of observability. If the system is observable for every input (uniform observability), the gain of the observer does not required a solution to differential equation. For multiple input multiple output (MIMO) non-uniformly observable systems, we give here a sufficient condition that the

MYCN Amplification in RB1‐Inactivated Retinoblastoma: Association With High‐Risk Features

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background MYCN amplification occurs in a subset of retinoblastoma cases, both with and without RB1 inactivation. It has been suggested that retinoblastomas with MYCN amplification represent a distinct entity with more aggressive clinical behavior.

Observer-Based Distributed Consensus Control for Nonlinear Lipschitz and One-Side Lipschitz Fractional-Order Multi-Agent Systems [PDF]

International Journal of Industrial Electronics, Control and Optimization
In this paper, an observer-based controller design for fractional-order multi-agent systems is discussed. By introducing a novel algorithm and leveraging appropriate lemmas and theoretical frameworks, we propose a stable observer and a distributed ...

Intraoperative Collection of Ascitic Fluid With Intra‐ or Postoperative Reinfusion in Ovarian Cancer: Safety and Feasibility of a Roller Pumping Method

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Patients with ovarian cancer often present with massive ascites, leading to significant protein loss during surgical procedures. Although cell‐free concentrated ascites reinfusion therapy (CART) is used in palliative settings to mitigate protein loss, its application in intraoperative settings remains unexplored.

Observer Design for $(\max, +)$ Linear Systems [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2010
This technical note deals with the state estimation for max-plus linear systems. This estimation is carried out following the ideas of the observer method for classical linear systems. The system matrices are assumed to be known, and the observation of the input and of the output is used to compute the estimated state.

Upacicalcet: A Novel Intravenous Calcimimetic Agent for Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis With Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication in patients receiving maintenance dialysis, driven by calcium and phosphate metabolism disturbances. Calcimimetics are central to the management of SHPT by enhancing calcium‐sensing receptor sensitivity and reducing parathyroid hormone secretion.
