Hydrogen-based electric vehicles such as Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCHEVs) play an important role in producing zero carbon emissions and in reducing the pressure from the fuel economy crisis, simultaneously. This paper aims to address the energy management design for various performance metrics, such as power tracking and system accuracy, fuel cell lifetime, battery lifetime, and reduction of transient and peak current on Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) and Li-ion batteries. The proposed algorithm includes a combination of reinforcement learning algorithms in low-level control loops and high-level supervisory control based on fuzzy logic load sharing, which is implemented in the system under consideration.

17-Estradiol (E2) is a natural steroidal estrogen essential for a variety of physiological functions in organisms. However, external E2, which is renowned for its potent biological effects, is also considered to be an endocrine-disrupting compound (EDC) capable of disturbing the normal operation of the endocrine system, even at nanogram-per-liter (ng/L) concentrations. Studies have revealed that medical and livestock wastewater can be contaminated with E2, which poses potential risks to human health.

Acute heart failure is associated with high hospitalization and mortality rates. A strong, independent risk factor for mortality in patients with heart failure is acute kidney injury, and the condition caused by this connection between disturbances in heart function and proper kidney functioning is cardiorenal syndrome (CRS). This case report discusses the role of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in the management of a CRS case with septic shock due to pneumonia.

Purpose: Toxicity to systemic cancer treatment represents a major anxiety for patients and a challenge to treatment plans. We aimed to develop machine learning algorithms for the upfront prediction of an individual's risk of experiencing treatment-relevant toxicity during the course of treatment.
Methods: Clinical records were retrieved from a single-center, consecutive cohort of patients who underwent neoadjuvant treatment for early breast cancer.

Hypercalcemia is a common electrolyte disturbance, most frequently caused by hyperparathyroidism or malignancy, though it can also arise from adrenal insufficiency, creating diagnostic challenges. We present a case of a 78-year-old male patient with stage 3b chronic kidney disease due to immunoglobulin A nephropathy who exhibited altered mental status following dehydration caused by a five-day episode of diarrhea. The patient presented with hypercalcemia and acute kidney injury.
