Combining robust state estimation with nonlinear model predictive control to regulate the acute inflammatory response to pathogen by Gregory Zitelli, Seddik M. Djouadi, Judy D. Day

“…The inflammatory responseaims to restore homeostasis by means of removing a biological stress, such as an invading bacterial pathogen.In cases of acute systemic inflammation, the possibility of collateral tissuedamage arises, which leads to a necessary down-regulation of the response.A reduced ordinary differential equations (ODE) model of acute inflammation was presented and investigated in [10]. …”
