Increase in failed swallows correlated with lower baseline total lung capacity(TLC) (R = -0.32, P = 0.05) and decreased post-transplant esophageal bolus clearance (R = -0.45, P = 0.004). Onmultivariable analysis, post-transplant hypomotility independently predicted increased ACR (HR: 3.62, 95%CI:1.11-11.8;P = 0.03). Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated increased ACR for subjects with increased vs unchangedfailed swallows post-transplant (P = 0.048). On Cox regression, a 20% elevated risk of ACR was found for every10% increase in failed swallows, after controlling for confounders including reflux severityCONCLUSIONEsophageal hypomotility, specifically an increase in failed swallows on HRM, from pre- to post-lungtransplantation was independently associated with ACR. Additionally, lower baseline TLC correlated with increasein failed swallows, suggesting restrictive lung disease may be associated with post-transplant esophagealhypomotility. Lung transplantation may affect esophageal function and contribute to rejection outcomes. Routineesophageal function testing may help identify patients at higher risk for poor lung transplantation outcomes.展开更多

The proposed method combines control barrier functions and control Lyapunov functions with a nonlinear extended state observer to produce a robust and safe control strategy for dynamic systems subject to uncertainties and disturbances. This control strategy employs an optimization-based control, supported by the disturbance estimation from a nonlinear extended state observer. Using a quadratic programming algorithm, the controller computes an optimal, stable, and safe control action at each sampling instant. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated through numerical simulations of a safety-critical interconnected adaptive cruise control system.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND The Luminex platform,where beads are coated with single human leukocyte antigens(HLA),detects HLA antibodies with higher sensitivity and specificity compared to complement-dependent cytotoxicity(CDC)assay and flow crossmatch(FCXM).The clinical significance of donor-specific antibodies(DSAs)detected by this method is still under investigation.AIM To report the impact of low-level pretransplant DSAs detected by the Luminex platform on the rates of acute rejection(AR),allograft function,and long-term graft survival.METHODS This retrospective study was conducted at the Immunology Department of Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplantation,Karachi,Pakistan between January 2013 and December 2022.During this period 2714 patients were transplanted.Out of these patients 78(2.9%)patients had low-level DSAs detected by the Luminex flow beads method and were negative by CDC and FCXM with their donors.All recipients received ABO-compatible live-related kidney transplants.All patients had a minimum follow-up of 1 year.Graft rejection rates,graft function,and patient and graft survival were analyzed.The estimated glomerular filtration rate was calculated by the full CKD-EPI formula.RESULTS The mean age of all recipients was 29.57±10.11 years and 34.53±9.09 years for the donors.In 48(61.5%)patients,the cause of end-stage kidney disease was unknown.DSA against HLA class I was detected in 36(46.1%)patients,class II in 35(44.8%)patients,and both class I and II in 7(8.9%)patients.AR episodes were encountered in 8(10.3%)cases.Seven(87.5%)had T cell mediated rejection(type IA)and one acute antibody-mediated rejection.Antibody status was re-evaluated at the time of biopsy-proven ARs.Five(62.5%)patients lost their DSAs,while three(37.5%)had persistent DSAs.The mean estimated glomerular filtration rate at 1 year was 80.56±27.48 mL/min/1.73 m2 and at the last follow-up 73.41±28.80 mL/min/1.73 m2.The 1-year and 10-year patient and graft survival rates were 99%and 79%and 95%and 75%,respectively.During the follow-up period,10(12.8%)patients died,8 patients had a functioning graft,and 2 patients had failed grafts.Eight patients died due to cardiopulmonary arrest,and two died due to sepsis with failed grafts.CONCLUSION Patients with pretransplant low-level DSAs on Luminex without CDC and FCXM reactivity had good allograft outcomes at 1 year and 10 years as long as they are induced with biological agents and given potent maintenance immunosuppressants.
文摘The integration of Learning Management Systems(LMSs)into educational settings is becoming increasingly common,especially in the digital field.Understanding the factors influencing the acceptance and effective use of LMS is essential to ensure successful implementation.The Technology Acceptance Model(TAM)has been widely used to check user acceptance of various technologies,including LMS.This study conducted a systematic literature review(SLR)to analyze existing research on the application of TAM in the context of LMS.A comprehensive search of the academic database was conducted to identify relevant studies published in 2010-2025.The review synthesizes findings related to the core constructs of TAM—Perceived Usability,Perceived Ease of Use,Behavioral Intent,and Actual Use—as well as extended factors such as system quality,self-efficacy,and social influence.The results reveal circumstantial evidence supporting the predictive power of TAM in LMS adoption,while also highlighting emerging trends and gaps in the literature.This review contributes to a deeper understanding of user acceptance in a digital learning environment and provides recommendations for future research and practical LMS implementation strategies.

文摘The Master Intelligent interview is based on the Stimulus-Organism-Response(SOR)theory,this study integrates key constructs from the Technology Acceptance Model(TAM)and the Theory of Planned Behavior(TPB),namely attitude and behavioral intention,to develop a dual-path model of how AI empowerment influences college graduates’acceptance of intelligent interview technology.Taking AI empowerment as the independent variable,perceived risk and attitude as mediating variables,and behavioral intention as the outcome variable,the study employs questionnaire surveys and structural equation modeling(SEM)for empirical analysis.The results show that AI empowerment exerts a significant positive impact on attitude,perceived risk,and behavioral intention.Both perceived risk and attitude play significant mediating roles between AI empowerment and behavioral intention.Interestingly,perceived risk does not suppress behavioral intention;instead,it positively promotes it through a“rational trade-off”mechanism.Moreover,perceived risk and attitude form a significant chain-mediated pathway,revealing a continuous psychological transmission mechanism of“rational cognition-emotional adjustment-behavioral decision-making”.This study enriches the theoretical framework of AI technology acceptance,extends the application of the SOR model to the context of intelligent recruitment,and provides valuable implications for optimizing university career guidance and enterprise recruitment systems.
文摘BACKGROUND Malabsorptive bariatric surgery,including Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and duodenal switch,are known to be more metabolically effective than restrictive surgery.However,the permanent alteration of gastrointestinal anatomy from these operations has been shown to alter the kinetics of drug absorption and may make subsequent surgeries more technically challenging.AIM To evaluate perioperative liver transplant outcomes and rates of acute cellular rejection in recipients with prior malabsorptive bariatric surgery.METHODS Patients who underwent liver transplantation at a single institution between 2005-2024 with a history of malabsorptive bariatric surgery were identified.Matched controls were selected based on age,sex,listing model for end-stage liver disease(MELD),and primary liver diagnosis.RESULTS A total of 12 liver transplant patients with prior malabsorptive surgery and 25 controls were included.The mean age in the malabsorptive group was 50.5 years at the time of transplant and 92%were female.The mean MELD at the time of transplant was 27.6 and mean body mass index was 28.There were no significant differences in length of stay,post operative complications,or 1 year survival between the controls and malabsorptive patients.However,the malabsorptive group was significantly more likely to experience biopsy-proven and clinically treated acute cellular rejection than the controls(24%vs 66.7%,P=0.012),more frequent rejection episodes(0.28±0.53 vs 1.0±0.91,P=0.006),and earlier time to first rejection episode(P=0.002).CONCLUSION Previous malabsorptive bariatric surgery in liver transplant recipients did not increase the risk of perioperative complications or mortality but significantly increased the rate and frequency of acute cellular rejection.
文摘BACKGROUND The pathophysiology behind gastroesophageal reflux disease and its association with poor outcomes after lung transplantation is incompletely understood.The physiologic impact of lung transplantation on pulmonary function,intrathoracic pressures,and vagal innervation may affect esophageal motility,bolus clearance and reflux risk.However,the effect of changes in esophageal function after lung transplantation on the risk of poor post-transplant outcomes remains unclear.AIM To evaluate the association between change in esophageal motility pre-/post-lung transplantation and rejection outcome.METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of lung transplant recipients who underwent both pre-and post-transplant esophageal testing including high resolution manometry(HRM)at a tertiary center.Acute cellular rejection(ACR)was defined histologically per International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation criteria.Univariate analyses were performed using student’s t-test,χ2 test,and Spearman’s correlation where appropriate.Multivariable time-to-event analysis using Cox proportional hazards model was applied.Subjects not meeting ACR outcome were censored at death or date of last clinic visit.RESULTS 55 subjects(65%men,mean age:61,median follow-up:840 days)were included,with 17 (31%) experiencing ACR. Increase in failed swallows correlated with lower baseline total lung capacity(TLC) (R = -0.32, P = 0.05) and decreased post-transplant esophageal bolus clearance (R = -0.45, P = 0.004). Onmultivariable analysis, post-transplant hypomotility independently predicted increased ACR (HR: 3.62, 95%CI:1.11-11.8;P = 0.03). Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated increased ACR for subjects with increased vs unchangedfailed swallows post-transplant (P = 0.048). On Cox regression, a 20% elevated risk of ACR was found for every10% increase in failed swallows, after controlling for confounders including reflux severityCONCLUSIONEsophageal hypomotility, specifically an increase in failed swallows on HRM, from pre- to post-lungtransplantation was independently associated with ACR. Additionally, lower baseline TLC correlated with increasein failed swallows, suggesting restrictive lung disease may be associated with post-transplant esophagealhypomotility. Lung transplantation may affect esophageal function and contribute to rejection outcomes. Routineesophageal function testing may help identify patients at higher risk for poor lung transplantation outcomes.

文摘With the growing adoption of artificial intelligence algorithms and neural networks,online learning and adaptive methods for updating the bandwidth have become increasingly prevalent.However,the conditions required to ensure closed-loop stability when employing a time-varying bandwidth,as well as the supporting mathematical foundations,remain insufficiently studied.This paper investigates the stability condition for active disturbance rejection control(ADRC)with a time-varying bandwidth extended state observer(ESO).A new stability condition is derived,which means that the upper bound of rate of change for ESO bandwidth should be restricted.Moreover,under the proposed condition,the closed-loop stability of ADRC with a time-varying bandwidth observer is rigorously proved for nonlinear uncertainties.In simulations,the necessity of the proposed condition is illustrated,demonstrating that the rate of change of ESO bandwidth is crucial for closed-loop stability.

文摘With the increasing penetration of renewable energy resources in power systems,conventional timescale separated load frequency control(LFC)and economic dispatch may degrade frequency performance and reduce economic efficiency.This paper proposes a novel data-driven adaptive distributed optimal disturbance rejection control(DODRC)method for real-time economic LFC problem in nonlinear power systems.Firstly,a basic DODRC method is proposed by integrating the active disturbance rejection control method and the partial primal–dual algorithm.Then,to deal with the tie-line power flow constraints,the logarithmic barrier function is employed to reconstruct the Lagrange function to obtain the constrained DODRC method.By analyzing the sensitivity of the uncertain parameters of power systems,a data-driven adaptive DODRC method is finally proposed with a neural network.The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by experimental results using real-time equipment.
文摘BACKGROUND Advancements in immunosuppressive therapies have improved graft survival by enhancing graft tolerance and preventing organ rejection.However,the risk of malignancy associated with prolonged immunosuppression remains a concern,as it can adversely affect recipients’quality of life and survival.While the link be-tween immunosuppression and increased cancer risk is well-documented,the specific interactions between graft rejection and post-transplant malignancy(PTM)remain poorly understood.Addressing this knowledge gap is crucial for devising immunosuppressive strategies that balance rejection prevention with cancer risk reduction.AIM To investigate whether immunosuppression in PTM reduces rejection risk,while immune activation during rejection protects against malignancy.METHODS We analyzed data from the United Network for Organ Sharing’s Organ Procurewith no prior history of malignancy(in donors or recipients).Landmark analyses at 1,2,3,5,10,15,and 20 years post-transplant,Kaplan–Meier analyses,and time-dependent Cox proportional hazards regression models,each incorporating the temporal dimension of outcomes,assessed the association between rejection-induced graft failure(RGF)and PTM.Multivariate models were adjusted for clinical and immunological factors,including immunosuppression regimens.RESULTS The cohort included 579905 recipients(kidney:386878;liver:108390;heart:45046;lung:37643;pancreas:1948)with a mean follow-up of 7.3 years and a median age of 50.6±13.2 years.RGF was associated with a reduction in PTM risk across all time points[hazard ratio(HR)=0.07-0.20,P<0.001],even after excluding mortality cases.Kidney transplant recipients exhibited the most pronounced reduction(HR=0.22,P<0.001).Conversely,among recipients with PTM,RGF risk decreased across all time points up to 15 years after excluding mortality cases(HR=0.49–0.80,P<0.001).This risk reduction was observed in kidney,liver,heart,and lung transplants(HRs=0.90,0.21,0.21,and 0.18,respectively;P<0.001)but not in pancreas transplants.CONCLUSION RGF reduces PTM risk,particularly in kidney transplants,while PTM decreases RGF risk in kidney,liver,heart,and lung transplants.
文摘BACKGROUND Acceptance and commitment therapy(ACT)is a third-generation therapy that appears to be a promising psychological intervention for psychotic disorders.While several systematic reviews and meta-analyses that address the efficacy of ACT for psychosis have been conducted,no systematic review has specifically focused on the application of ACT to the early stages of psychosis.AIM To review the state of the art regarding the feasibility and efficacy of treating early psychosis(EP)with ACT-based interventions.METHODS First,we describe the foundations of the ACT model to provide the background required to contextualize the main objective of this review.Second,we searched the PubMed and PsycINFO databases for studies published up to January 2025 and identified eight studies that met our selection criteria.The systematic review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines and the critical appraisal checklist provided by the Joanna Briggs Institute for randomized controlled trials(RCTs).RESULTS All studies were published after 2019.Among the reviewed studies,five were RCTs with a total combined sample of 399 nonoverlapping participants.The methodological quality was moderate for RCTs.The results showed that ACTbased treatments are feasible and improve psychotic symptoms,medication adherence,and global functioning in patients with EP.Furthermore,preliminary evidence exists for the benefits of group-based and online-delivered programs and those that combine face-to-face therapy with novel real-time digital interventions,such as“ecological momentary intervention”,to apply therapeutic con cepts to real life.CONCLUSION ACT-based treatments in the early stages of psychosis are feasible and improve symptoms,treatment adherence,and self-care skills.Although promising,these results are inconclusive.Further research is required.

文摘The objective of this paper is to present a robust safety-critical control system based on the active disturbance rejection control approach, designed to guarantee safety even in the presence of model inaccuracies, unknown dynamics, and external disturbances. The proposed method combines control barrier functions and control Lyapunov functions with a nonlinear extended state observer to produce a robust and safe control strategy for dynamic systems subject to uncertainties and disturbances. This control strategy employs an optimization-based control, supported by the disturbance estimation from a nonlinear extended state observer. Using a quadratic programming algorithm, the controller computes an optimal, stable, and safe control action at each sampling instant. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated through numerical simulations of a safety-critical interconnected adaptive cruise control system.

文摘During the startup of the hydraulic turbine generators,the hybrid magnetic bearing support system exhibits displacement fluctuations,and the nonlinearity and strong coupling characteristics of the magnetic bearings limit the accuracy of rotor modeling,making traditional control methods difficult to adapt to parameter variations.To suppress startup disturbances and achieve a control strategy with low computational complexity and high precision,this paper proposes a five-degree-of-freedom hybrid magnetic bearing control strategy based on an improved cascaded reduced-order linear active disturbance rejection controller(CRLADRC).The front-stage reduced-order linear extended state observer(FRLESO)reduces the system’s computational complexity,enabling the system to maintain stability during motor startup disturbances.The second-stage reduced-order linear extended state observer(SRLESO)further enhances the system’s disturbance estimation accuracy while maintaining low computational complexity.Furthermore,the disturbance rejection and noise suppression capabilities are analyzed in the frequency domain and the stability of the proposed control method is proven using Lyapunov theory.Experimental results indicate that the proposed strategy effectively reduces displacement fluctuations in the hybrid magnetic bearing support system during motor startup,significantly enhancing the system’s robustness.
文摘This paper presents a novel active disturbance rejection control(ADRC)scheme based on a cascade connection of generalized proportional integral observers(GPIOs)with internal models designed to estimate both polynomial and resonant disturbances.In this estimator structure,referred to as Cascade GPIO(CGPIO),the total disturbance sensitivity is the product of the sensitivities at each cascade level.This approach improves system performance against both periodic and non-periodic disturbances and enhances robustness under frequency variations in harmonic components.Additionally,the decoupled nature of the estimator reduces the order of the GPIOs,thereby simplifying tuning and limiting observer gains.The proposed control scheme is supported by a frequency-domain analysis and is experimentally validated in the current control of a grid-connected converter subject to control gain uncertainties,harmonic distortion,frequency deviations,and measurement noise.Experimental results demonstrate that the CGPIO-based ADRC outperforms benchmark solutions,including proportional-integral(PI)and proportional-resonant(PR)controllers.
