Therapeutic Apheresis for Intravenous Methylprednisolone‐Refractory Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder: Clinical and Radiological Outcomes in a Single‐Center Case Series

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.

Hamilton-Souplet-Zhang’s Gradient Estimates for Two Types of Nonlinear Parabolic Equations under the Ricci Flow

Journal of Function Spaces, 2016
We consider gradient estimates for two types of nonlinear parabolic equations under the Ricci flow: one is the equation ut=Δu+aulog⁡u+bu with a,b being two real constants; the other is ut=Δu+λuα with λ,α being two real constants.

Risk-Sensitive Optimal Control of Queues

, 2017
We consider the problem of designing risk-sensitive optimal control policies for scheduling packet transmissions in a stochastic wireless network. A single client is connected to an access point (AP) through a wireless channel. Packet transmission incurs

Infection Control Practices for Vascular Access Management in Hemodialysis: Results From a Nationwide Survey of Japanese National University Hospitals

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

Optimal continuous-path control for manipulators with redundant degrees of freedom [PDF]

Modeling, Identification and Control, 1989
A control system for macro-mini manipulators is presented. A position transformation from the end-effector reference to joint coordinates is found using kinematic optimization.

Optimal Control of Wireless Computing Networks

, 2017
Augmented information (AgI) services allow users to consume information that results from the execution of a chain of service functions that process source information to create real-time augmented value. Applications include real-time analysis of remote

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Event-Triggered Asynchronous Dissipative Control for Markov Jump Systems With Unknown Probabilities

IEEE Access
This paper investigates the issue of the event-triggered asynchronous dissipative control for Markov jump systems with unknown probabilities and packet losses. A hidden Markov model is used to describe the asynchronous problem.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
