Clinicopathological characteristics of patients with inoperable non‐small cell lung cancer harboring circulating NRF2 pathway mutations

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Lung cancer is the leading cause of global cancer‐related morbidity and mortality, with tobacco smoking as its strongest risk factor. Nuclear factor erythroid 2‐related factor 2 (NRF2) is a redox‐regulated transcription factor frequently dysregulated in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), leading to aggressive disease and resistance to therapy.

Overall outcome, functioning, and disability in older adults 3 to 14 years after traumatic brain injury

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Epidemiological studies show an increasing incidence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) among people aged 65 years and older. Advances in neurointensive care have improved survival after TBI. There is a need for knowledge about long‐term outcome after TBI among older survivors of TBI.

String‐Stable Platooning Control of Connected Automated Vehicles Under Non‐Uniform Stochastic Communication Delays

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper is concerned with the platooning control problem of connected automated vehicles (CAVs) under non‐uniform stochastic vehicle‐to‐vehicle (V2V) communication delays. Most existing relevant studies assume uniform or deterministic or slowly varying delays, or design platoon controllers based on worst‐case delay bounds, resulting in ...

Why Autonomous Vehicles Are Not Ready Yet: A Multi‐Disciplinary Review of Problems, Attempted Solutions, and Future Directions

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Personal autonomous vehicles can sense their surrounding environment, plan their route, and drive with little or no involvement of human drivers. Despite the latest technological advancements and the hopeful announcements made by leading entrepreneurs, to date no personal vehicle is approved for road circulation in a “fully” or “semi ...
