INTRODUCTION Temperature changes are common in patients in a neurosurgical intensive care unit (NICU): fever is frequent among severe cases and hypothermia is used after cardiac arrest and is currently being tested in clinical trials to lower intracranial pressure (ICP). This study investigated cerebral hemodynamics when body temperature varies in acute brain injured patients. METHODS We enro...

INTRODUCTION Assessing virological response of four-drugs antiretroviral regimen that include raltegravir (RAL) in naïve patients with high viral load (>500,000 copies/mL) selected from a multicentre Italian database. METHODS Naïve patients with HIV RNA>500,000 copies/mL, who began standard antiretroviral regimens either based on non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) or boos...

INTRODUCTION Multiple scoring systems have been proposed for prostate MRI reporting. We sought to review the clinical impact of the new Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System v2 (PI-RADS) and compare those results to our proposed Simplified Qualitative System (SQS) score with respect to detection of prostate cancers and clinically significant prostate cancers. METHODS All patients who und...

Objective. Pancreatitis is an infrequent complication among patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). It has mainly been reported for patients with pancreatic sufficiency (PS). Previous studies involved only a small number of patients because they contained data from single centers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of pancreatitis in a large heterogeneous CF population, to determin...

Whereas stable linear systems with inputs have a unique steady-state solution, which is independent on the initial conditions and only depends on the input signals, nonlinear systems in general do not possess this property. Due to the lack of this property it is often hard to evaluate the exact behavior of the system, and thus to evaluate the ‘exact’ performance. In this article we present the ...

This paper illustrates the potential of nonlinear model-based control applied for stabilization of unstable flow in oil wells. A simple empirical model is developed that describes the qualitative behavior of the downhole pressure during severe riser slugging. A nonlinear controller is designed by an integrator backstepping approach, and stabilization for open-loop unstable pressure setpoints is...

The innervation pattern of inhibitory motor neurones of the locust has been revealed by intracellular recording from their cell bodies in the meso- and metathoracic ganglion and simultaneous recording from muscle fibres in a middle, or in a hind leg. Three neurones in each ganglion, the common inhibitor (CI = CI1), the anterior inhibitor (AI = CI2), and the posterior inhibitor (PI = CI3) innerv...
