    Individualized anemia management enhanced by ferric pyrophosphate citrate protocol

    The optimal use of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) and parenteral iron in managing anemia in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) remains controversial. One-size-fits-all rule-based algorithms dominate dosi...

    Assessing accuracy of estimated dry weight in dialysis patients post transplantation: the kidney knows best

    Estimated dry weight is used to guide fluid removal during outpatient hemodialysis sessions. Errors in estimated dry weight can result in intradialytic hypotension and interdialytic fluid overload. The goal of...

    On establishing classic performance measures for reset control systems

    Reset controllers are linear controllers that reset some of their states to zero when their inputs reach a threshold. We are interested in their feedback connection with linear plants, and in this context, the...
