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 ...

A Generalization of Routh–Hurwitz Stability Criterion for Fractional-Order Systems with Order α ∈ (1, 2)

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2022
Based on the generalized Routh–Hurwitz criterion, we propose a sufficient and necessary criterion for testing the stability of fractional-order linear systems with order α∈1,2, called the fractional-order Routh–Hurwitz criterion.

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 ...

Input-to-state stability for discrete-time time-varying systems with applications to robust stabilization of systems in power form [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Input-to-state stability (ISS) of a parameterized family of discrete-time time-varying nonlinear systems is investigated. A converse Lyapunov theorem for such systems is developed.

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
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.

A biased approach to nonlinear robust stability and performance with applications to adaptive control

open access: yes, 2012
The nonlinear robust stability theory of Georgiou and Smith [IEEE Trans. Automat. Control, 42 (1997), pp. 1200–1229] is generalized to the case of notions of stability with bias terms.

Stability of limit regimes in general reaction-diffusion type systems

open access: yesНауковий вісник Ужгородського університету. Серія: Математика і інформатика, 2022
In this paper, we consider the stability of limit regimes for a general class of nonlinear distributed mathematical models named Reaction-Diffusion models. RD systems naturally arise in many applications.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Robust stability of patterned linear systems

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2013
For a Hurwitz stable matrix $A\in \mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$, we calculate the real structured radius of stability for $A$ with a perturbation $P=B\Delta (t)C$, where $A, B, C$, $ \Delta (t)$ form a patterned quadruple of matrices; i.e., they are ...

Unstructured Uncertainty Based Modeling and Robust Stability Analysis of Textile-Reinforced Composites with Embedded Shape Memory Alloys

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2020
This paper develops the mathematical modeling and deflection control of a textile-reinforced composite integrated with shape memory actuators. The mathematical model of the system is derived using the identification method and an unstructured uncertainty
