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.

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...

Fuzzy Gain-Scheduling PI Controller Design for Large-Scale Wind Turbine

Zhongguo dianli, 2020
When the wind speed exceeds the rated value, usually the blade pitch controller will be put into the operation of large-scale wind turbine. Specifically, the blade pitch angle is adjusted to maintain appropriate angle of attacking on the blade. Thus, the

Optimal PI control parameters for accurate underfloor heating temperature control [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2019
In low energy buildings, the effect of internal and solar gains on heat balance of rooms is large. As a result, the heating systems, designed assuming steady-state conditions with no heat gains, are over-dimensioned for most of the heating period.

The controllable pi - SQUID

, 2001
We have fabricated and studied a new kind of DC SQUID in which the magnitude and sign of the critical current of the individual Josephson junctions can be controlled by additional voltage probes connected to the junctions. We show that the amplitude of the voltage oscillations of the SQUID as a function of the applied magnetic field can be tuned and ...

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Extended Order Generalised Integral Control based Circulating Current Mitigating Scheme in Modular Multilevel Converters—A Balancing Approach

Power Electronics and Drives
In modular multilevel converters (MMCs), circulating currents consist of both DC and AC components. However, these currents are significantly affected by even harmonic distortions, which introduce ripples in the sub-module (SM) capacitor voltages.
