IMPORTANCE Neuroinflammation may play a role in epilepsy. Translocator protein 18 kDa (TSPO), a biomarker of neuroinflammation, is overexpressed on activated microglia and reactive astrocytes. A preliminary positron emission tomographic (PET) imaging study using carbon 11 ([11C])-labeled PBR28 in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) found increased TSPO ipsilateral to seizure foci. Full q...

After several years of efforts, constrained model predictive control (MPC), the de facto standard algorithm for advanced control in process industries, has finally succumbed to rigorous analysis. Yet successful practical implementations of MPC were already in place almost two decades before a rigorous stability proof for constrained MPC was published. What is then the importance of recent theor...
