This paper presents design and development of an optimal robust PI controller based on linear matrix inequalities for a typical industrial process control system. In this method, the design problem has been transformed into a state feedback controller design problem for an augmented uncertainty MIMO system. In this work, a dynamic decoupler is designed to handle loop interaction.

Purpose: Surgical management of the lateral end of clavicle fractures has been a challenge for orthopedic surgeons considering the high rate of non-union. There has been no right and wrong answer to these types of fractures and many methods discussed in the literature, but the 2 most used bony procedures are hook plate and locking plate with or without the use of supplementary soft tissue procedures. The available evidence, in this case, is scarce with questionable reliability.

ATAD3A deficiency in hepatocytes has been shown to promote simple steatosis (SS), ATAD3 is upregulated in MCD diet-induced MASH. Since the MCD diet is commonly used to induce liver fibrosis, which is related to HSCs activation, we are prompted to investigate the functions of ATAD3 in these two cell types and their mediated transition from SS to MASH. To investigate the role of ATAD3A in HSCs, human LX-2 cells were treated with TGFβ.
