Anti–Carbamylated Fibrinogen Autoantibodies of IgG and IgA Isotypes Contribute to a Better Prognostic Stratification in Very Early Rheumatoid Arthritis: Data From the French National ESPOIR Cohort

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and longitudinal evolution of anti–carbamylated fibrinogen antibodies (ACa‐Fib) of IgG and IgA isotypes in early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and determine whether these antibodies provide additional diagnostic and prognostic information beyond anti–cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti‐CCP ...

Outcomes in progressive pulmonary fibrosis in systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases: real‐world data from the ILD‐PRO Registry

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective We evaluated baseline characteristics, treatment patterns, and outcomes in patients with systemic autoimmune rheumatic disease‐associated progressive pulmonary fibrosis (SARD‐PPF) and evaluated whether outcomes differed by SARD subtype. Methods The ILD‐PRO Registry is a prospective multicenter US registry of patients with PPF.

Serum bile acids as a prognostic biomarker in biliary atresia following Kasai portoenterostomy

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Serum bile acid levels predict outcomes in patients with biliary atresia who achieve normalized bilirubin levels after Kasai portoenterostomy. Abstract Background and Aims In biliary atresia, serum bilirubin is commonly used to predict outcomes after Kasai portoenterostomy (KP).

Performance improvement of discrete‐time linear‐quadratic regulators applied to uncertain linear systems using the Tikhonov regularization method

Asian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
Abstract The linear‐quadratic regulator (LQR) problem of optimal control of an uncertain discrete‐time linear system (DTLS) is revisited in this paper from the perspective of Tikhonov regularization. We show that an optimally chosen regularization parameter reduces, compared to the classical LQR, the values of a scalar error function, as well as the ...

Controllability and Observability Conditions for Impulsive DAEs on Time Scales

Asian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper establishes criteria for controllability and observability in a class of linear time‐invariant impulsive differential‐algebraic equations (DAEs) defined on a time scale. Controllability is defined as the ability to transfer the system state from any initial condition to any desired state within a finite time interval using an ...

Revisiting Variable Stars Toward the Globular Cluster NGC 6496 With ATLAS and Gaia Photometry

Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We revisit 13 variable stars in the field of the metal‐rich globular cluster NGC 6496, discovered by Abbas et al. (2015; Astronomical Journal 149:40) (hereafter referred to as “MA15”) via time‐series data, spanning 2 years. We improve upon the MA15 characterization of the variables using ATLAS time‐series photometry data, spanning 8 years, in ...

Setting up mother–infant pair lactation studies with biobanking for research according to regulatory requirements

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Within the ConcePTION project we set out to design two mother–infant pair studies collecting breast milk and plasma from the mother and plasma from the infant (for metformin and prednisolone) in order to demonstrate the premises and conditions for investigating potential drug transfer in association with breastfeeding.
