Summary
In this work, a fuzzy adaptive two‐bits‐triggered control is investigated for the nonlinear uncertain systems with input saturation and output constraint. The considered systems are more widespread. Without sufficient transmission resources, how to resolve the constraint issues while guarantee the control performance is difficult and challenging. Then, hyperbolic tangent function and barrier Lyapunov function are integrated with the designed auxiliary system to solve input saturation and output constraint. Meanwhile, faced with the transmission resources limitation, this work both considers the triggering condition and the control signal transmission bits. A two‐bits‐triggered control is proposed to economize the transmission resources. Furthermore, improved fuzzy logic systems are established to further promote the control performance. It combines with the time‐varying approximation error for processing. The boundedness of all the system signals can be proved. Simulation results illustrate the validity of the proposed approach.
Rationale:Malignant struma ovarii is extremely rare in the clinic. The diagnosis and modalities of treatment are still controversial. Here we describe a case of extensive peritoneal implant metastasis originating from malignant struma ovarii discovered 14 years after ovariectomy and chemotherapy.Patient concerns:A 48-year-old female was admitted to our clinic due to hematochezia with a past history of left malignant struma ovarii. Enhanced computed tomography (CT) examination suggested multiple metastasis nodules in the abdomen and pelvic cavity.Diagnoses:Laparoscopy biopsy results of intraperitoneal nodules showed a metastasis of papillary thyroid carcinoma. While pathological examination after total thyroidectomy showed no definite malignant tumor component in the thyroid tissue. Finally, combined with the patient's past history of malignant struma ovarii, peritoneal implantation metastasis derived from the malignant struma ovarii was diagnosed.Interventions:The patient was treated by total thyroidectomy and iodine 131 (131I) therapy. Post-therapy iodine scan and the single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) fusion image showed iodine uptake in the distal descending colon, sigmoid colon, rectal lesions, and a larger lesion in the liver.Outcome:After treatment, although the thyroid globulin remained at a high level 3 months after treatment, the patient's hematochezia was relieved.Lessons:Therefore, thyroidectomy followed by adjuvant 131I treatment should be recommended in patients with malignant struma ovarii as metastatic risk is difficult to predict based on histopathologic examination.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
