Incidence and prognosis associated with troponin elevation after cardiac surgery: a prospective cohort study by Arthur Clement, Lee S Nguyen, Anousone Daulasim, Magali Souibri

“…We aimed to confirm the accuracy of troponin, analysed as time-dependent variable, to predict mortality independently from other biomarkers; and to assess the incidence and prognosis of a 10 times upper normal value threshold (troponin10N) used in the current fourth definition of myocardial infarction.Methods In a prospective cohort of patients who underwent cardiopulmonary bypass cardiac procedures, we assessed the association between serum levels of troponin, creatinine, bilirubin, serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT), serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT), C-reactive protein (CRP), lactate and in-hospital mortality. …”

Rotor Unbalanced Vibration Control of Active Magnetic Bearing High-Speed Motor via Adaptive Fuzzy Controller Based on Switching Notch Filter by Lei Gong, Wenjuan Luo, Yu Li, Jingwen Chen, Zhiguang Hua

“…The simulation results demonstrate that compared to traditional PID control, the AFC reduces the response time by 0.11 s. Under constant-speed operating conditions, the AFC-ANF strategy decreases rotor vibration by 60%, while under variable-speed conditions, it reduces rotor vibration displacement by 40%, showcasing significant vibration suppression effectiveness. …”

Methodological bases of building the system of key performance indicators for stimulating the project participants in executive bodies by L. A. Zhigun

“…The quantitative rule is found that the maximization of the project complexity stimulation leads to the minimization of the incentives for the qualitative implementation of the project activities and the uniqueness of its results.Scientific novelty: for the first time it is determined that the key performance indicators in their economic form reflect three types of costs: conditionally constant and variable part of payment, as well as transaction costs for the purpose-orientation of the project participants.Practical significance: the main provisions and conclusions of the article can be used in research of the stimulating effect of key performance indicators on the activity of project participants and in the development of methods for building systems of key performance indicators to stimulate them in the executive authority bodies.…”
