Robust Position Control of an Electro‐Hydraulic Actuator via Metaheuristic Optimization of a Fractional‐Order PID Controller

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, a robust position control strategy is presented for a two‐stage electro‐hydraulic actuator system using a fractional‐order proportional–integral–derivative (FOPID) controller tuned by Kirchhoff's law algorithm (KLA). Electro‐hydraulic systems exhibit strong nonlinearities, parameter uncertainties, and external disturbances ...

Bioprosthetic heart valve degeneration: new insights into structural remodeling and calcification

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
Bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are widely used to treat aortic valve disease, and their demand is rising. However, BHV lifespan remains limited by degeneration, with patients often requiring surgical or transcatheter reintervention within a decade ...

Long‐Term Comparison Between Pulmonary Homograft Versus Bioprosthesis for Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Tetralogy of Fallot

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Tetralogy of Fallot repair results in late occurrence of pulmonary regurgitation, which requires pulmonary valve replacement in a large proportion of patients.

Assessing a Model for a Complex Systemic Disorder—The Value of Male Mice With a Supernumerary X Chromosome for Klinefelter Syndrome Research

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Direct experimental investigation of Klinefelter syndrome (KS) in patients is limited because the syndrome manifests heterogeneously and affects multiple organ systems. Studying KS therefore requires a model that captures this complexity as accurately as possible while still permitting controlled experimental manipulation ...

Pathologic findings in pericardium and native valve tissues after aortic valve-sparing with autologous pericardial leaflet extension

open access: yes, 2007
Aortic valve repair with autologous pericardial leaflet extension is a valuable treatment option for aortic valve disease. The study aim was to examine and describe the histopathologic changes in native and pericardial extension leaflet tissues after ...

Ischaemic Optic Neuropathy After Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Incidence and Risk Factors

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Across 11 observational studies comprising 6 471 577 patients, the pooled incidence of ischaemic optic neuropathy after cardiac surgery was approximately 1.5 cases per 10 000 procedures. Coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease and anaemia were associated with increased odds of ION, although these findings should be interpreted in the ...

Longitudinal changes in bleb morphology following the PAUL Glaucoma Implant visualized using ultrasonography

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate bleb morphology longitudinally using sonography following glaucoma drainage device (GDD) surgery. Methods Prospective observational cohort study conducted from January 2022 to March 2024, with follow‐up up to 12 months postoperatively. Bleb morphology, including superior and inferior bleb height, transverse and longitudinal

Premium Intraocular Lens Selection in Patients With Glaucoma: A Clinical Review

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glaucoma frequently coexists with cataract, but glaucomatous functional loss, ocular‐surface disease, anatomical abnormalities, and treatment‐related refractive variability may reduce tolerance of premium intraocular lenses. This narrative review critically appraises evidence relevant to lens selection in glaucoma. Central visual‐field status,

Cardiac structure and function in psoriasis: A cross‐sectional analysis of the PSOCADIA study

open access: yesJournal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
Individuals with well‐treated psoriasis exhibited a higher burden of myocardial dysfunction (GLS < 16%) compared with controls, independent of cardiometabolic comorbidity. The prevalence was similar across psoriasis severity, highlighting the importance of cardiovascular assessment in all patients with psoriasis. Abstract Background Psoriasis is linked
