ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Robust Conceptual Design for a Robust Early Embodiment Design
Utilisation of Robust Design (RD) principles in early stages of product development can reduce costly iterations by identifying concepts that are less prone to functional losses caused by variations. Valuable implications can be drawn from those principles, which are currently not transferred to later stages.

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 ...

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 ...

A Novel Evolutionary Algorithm for Designing Robust Analog Filters
Designing robust circuits that withstand environmental perturbation and device degradation is critical for many applications. Traditional robust circuit design is mainly done by tuning parameters to improve system robustness.

ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Robust multivariable feedback design
A primary role of feedback design is to enable a system to cope with the inevitable uncertainly associated with its description. Although it is often the case that we have at hand a practical description of both the size and structure of the expected uncertainty, simple multivariable design strategies which effectively incorporate this information have
