Association between performance measures and glycemic control among patients with diabetes in a community-wide primary care cohort [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Performance measures are used for assessing quality of care. Higher performance shown by these measures is expected to reflect better care, but little is known whether they predict better patient outcomes.

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Predictive Control of Demand Side Units Participating in the Primary Frequency Reserve Market [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We consider an aggregator controlling a mixed portfolio of conventional power generators and demand side units. The generators are controllable within certain power and ramp limitations while the demand side units are characterized by flexible ...

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

open access: yesTherapeutic 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 ...

Energy limits in primary frequency control with short-term frequency-band allocation

open access: yesIEEE PES Innovative Smart Grid Technologies, Europe, 2014
Frequency stability of large power systems requires the use of very fast flexible resources to contain frequency excursions. Potential candidates able to provide such flexibility are demand response and storage. However, capacity and energy constraints usually restrict their use to exceptional and rare events.

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

open access: yesTherapeutic 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 ...

Enhanced Primary Frequency Control Using Model Predictive Control in Large-Islanded Power Grids with High Penetration of DFIG-Based Wind Farm

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
A new primary frequency controller in power grids undergoing massive wind power penetration is the focus of this paper. The inescapable problem in a largely wind penetrated power grid is to ensure the maintenance of its frequency in the nominal band ...

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Research on Primary Frequency Regulation Control Strategy of the Joint Hydropower and Battery Energy Storage System Based on Refined Model

open access: yesEnergies
This study aims to reduce reverse power and improve frequency regulation performance in hydropower systems. To achieve this objective, a refined hydropower plant (HPP) simulation model is developed and coupled with a battery energy storage system (BESS),
