Current practice and guideline adherence in renal dose adjustment for patients with chronic kidney disease: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims To quantify prescribing adherence to renal dosing recommendations in adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD; Stage 3 and above) and to evaluate the clinical consequences of non‐adherence. Methods This systematic review and meta‐analysis was conducted in accordance with PRISMA 2020 guidelines and registered in PROSPERO (CRD42025620883).

Causality assessment tool for drug‐induced acute kidney injury in patients admitted to intensive care units: Requirements from a multicentre retrospective study in the Netherlands reusing data from electronic health records

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim This study aimed to provide key requirements for a drug‐induced acute kidney injury (d‐AKI) causality assessment tool (CAT) for intensive care unit (ICU) patients, using vancomycin‐induced AKI (v‐AKI) as a test case. Methods A retrospective review was conducted by medical experts of electronic health records of ICU patients from 14 Dutch ICUs.

Association between triglyceride glucose–body mass index and acute kidney injury and renal replacement therapy in critically ill patients with sepsis: analysis of the MIMIC-IV database

Frontiers in Endocrinology
BackgroundPrevious studies have linked kidney damage to insulin resistance (IR), yet the association between triglyceride glucose–body mass (TyG–BMI) index, a reliable marker of IR, and acute kidney injury (AKI) remains unclear.MethodsPatient data were ...

Cefepime exposure in prolonged or intermittent infusion in critically ill children

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Cefepime is commonly used in critically ill children for whom there is a high between‐subject variability. To reach the therapeutic pharmacokinetic (PK) target in critically ill patients, prolonged infusion of beta‐lactams seems to be the most efficient.

Active pose SLAM with RRT* [PDF]

2015 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2015
We propose a novel method for robotic exploration that evaluates paths that minimize both the joint path and map entropy per meter traveled. The method uses Pose SLAM to update the path estimate, and grows an RRT* tree to generate the set of candidate paths.

Bang-Bang Boosting of RRTs

2023 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2023
This paper presents methods for dramatically improving the performance of sampling-based kinodynamic planners. The key component is the first-known complete, exact steering method that produces a time-optimal trajectory between any states for a vector of synchronized double integrators.
