Vitamins k is an important fat-soluble vitamin that can be obtained from plants, bacteria and animals necessary for the blood clotting. It plays a key function as cofactor in synthesizing of clotting proteins liver; recently, interest its functions extra-hepatic tissue has increased. Vitamin deficiency usually caused by abnormal absorption rather than lack food. Apart impact on clotting, chroni...

This paper presents a solution methodology for H∞-feedback control design problem of Heparin controlled blood clotting network under the presence stochastic noise. The formulaic procedure to solve nonlinear partial differential equation, Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs equation with Successive Galrkin’s Approximation is sketched and validity proved. According Lyapunov’s theory, solutions PDEs, robust fe...

I’m a third year Ph.D. student in the Physics department working for Adrian Lee. I work on the data analysis pipeline for the POLARBEAR Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) experiment and I am interested in the computational problems posed by the size and complexity of the datasets that will be produced by the next generation of CMB experiments. I’m also willing to work on something completely unr...

The clotting process is a dynamic array of multiple processes which can be described in four phases: platelet plug initiation and formation, clotting process propagation by the coagulation cascade, clotting termination by antithrombotic mechanisms and clot removal by fibrinolysis. The liver plays a central role in each of these phases of clotting process, as it synthesizes the majority of coagu...

It has been proposed that anticoagulant activity during continuous renal replacement therapy with nafamostat mesilate can be monitored by using intra-circuit activated clotting time. However, it is still unclear whether activated clotting time would be useful for this purpose. We conducted a retrospective study and included 76 patients who required continuous renal replacement therapy using naf...

ASSAY PRINCIPLE: The method is a clotting assay where all the clotting factors are present (constant and in excess, brought by the deficient plasma), excepted for FII, which is brought by the diluted tested plasma, and clotting is triggered with calcium thromboplastin. FII is the limiting factor and clotting time is inversely proportional to the concentration of FII. There is an inverse linear ...

We formulate and analyze a model of (full) repeated implementation with incomplete information. A group of infinitely-lived agents possess state-dependent utilities over a set of outcomes and in each period a state is drawn independently from an identical prior distribution. Each agent privately observes some partial contents of a realized state and may condition behavior on his private informa...
