The objective of control system design is to construct a system that has a desirable response to standard inputs.
One approach is the use of maintenance therapy after an initial response to standard regimens has been achieved.
To evaluate whether pretreatment dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) supplementation improves ovarian response markers, ovarian response to standard low-dose gonadotropin stimulation, and in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes in poor responders.
Hepatitis C viral load can be used to predict the likelihood of response to standard interferon-α treatment and other interferon-α regimens and to monitor treatment efficacy.
Patients with the hypersensitive esophagus demonstrate a very limited response to standard-dose PPI treatment but with some improvement when higher doses are used.39 Patients with functional heartburn and negative SI are rarely responsive to any antireflux intervention.
Patients administered experimental treatment and control patients were classified as having favorable or unfavorable prognosis according to their predicted probability of response to standard treatment.
The difference waveform was obtained by subtracting ERPs in response to standard stimuli from those in response to target stimuli.
Patients with high pre-percutaneous coronary intervention platelet reactivity demonstrate a differential response to standard doses of antiplatelet therapies and have higher residual post-treatment platelet reactivity.
CONCLUSIONS: Adjunctive aripiprazole was effective in improving depressive symptoms in older patients, 50-67 years, with MDD who have had an inadequate response to standard antidepressant medication.
