Pediatric Oncology Nursing Competencies in Latin America and the Caribbean: A Scoping Review to Inform Practice, Education, and Research

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nurses are central to cancer care for children and adolescents, yet no comprehensive synthesis has defined essential core competencies for pediatric oncology nursing (PON) practice internationally, particularly in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).

Policy iteration for H∞ control of polynomial time‐varying systems

IET Control Theory & Applications
This paper studies the H∞ control problem for polynomial time‐varying systems. The H∞ control problem has been much less investigated for time‐varying systems in comparison to the time‐invariant systems.

Robust output trajectory linearisation control for a class of linear time‐varying systems

IET Control Theory & Applications, 2021
The trajectory linearisation control of a non‐linear system using only output information and considering the presence of matched and unmatched uncertainties/perturbations is presented.

A Bode Sensitivity Integral for Linear Time-Periodic Systems [PDF]

, 2004
Bode's sensitivity integral is a well-known formula that quantifies some of the limitations in feedback control for linear time-invariant systems. In this note, we show that there is a similar formula for linear time-periodic systems.

NRASQ61R Expression in Lymphatic Endothelial Cells Causes Enlarged Vessels, Hemorrhagic Chylous Effusions, and High Mortality in a Mouse Model of Kaposiform Lymphangiomatosis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Kaposiform lymphangiomatosis (KLA) is an aggressive complex lymphatic anomaly. Patients exhibit malformed lymphatic vessels and often develop hemorrhagic effusions and elevated angiopoietin‐2 (Ang‐2) levels. A somatic NRAS p.Q61R (NRASQ61R) mutation has been associated with KLA.

Model Reference Control for Linear Time-Varying Systems: A Direct Parametric Approach

IEEE Access, 2020
This paper investigates model reference control for linear time-varying (LTV) systems. It is shown that the problem can be decomposed into two sub-problems: a state feedback stabilization problem of LTV systems and a feed-forward compensation problem ...

Pulmonary Dysfunction Is Associated With Sleep Study Abnormalities in Children With Sickle Cell Disease: A Multicenter Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary dysfunction and sleep abnormalities are common in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) and are associated with worse clinical outcomes. Whether spirometry abnormalities are associated with polysomnography (PSG) findings remains unclear.

COORDINATION OF LEADER-FOLLOWER MULTI-AGENT SYSTEM WITH TIME-VARYING OBJECTIVE FUNCTION [PDF]

, 2017
This thesis aims to introduce a new framework for the distributed control of multi-agent systems with adjustable swarm control objectives. Our goal is twofold: 1) to provide an overview to how time-varying objectives in the control of autonomous systems ...

Active fault tolerant control for nonlinear systems with simultaneous actuator and sensor faults [PDF]

, 2013
The goal of this paper is to describe a novel fault tolerant tracking control (FTTC) strategy based on robust fault estimation and compensation of simultaneous actuator and sensor faults. Within the framework of fault tolerant control (FTC) the challenge

‘They Need to Hear You Say It’: Healthcare Professionals’ Perspectives on Barriers and Enablers to End‐of‐Life Discussions With Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT End‐of‐life conversations with adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer rarely occur without the guidance of healthcare professionals. As a part of the ‘Difficult Discussions’ study, focused on palliative care and advance care planning discussions with AYAs with cancer, we investigated the factors that healthcare professionals identify ...
