    Abstract Background: Shen Shuai Ⅱ Recipe (SSR) is clinically used to treat chronic kidney diseases (CKDs) with remarkable efficacy and safety. In earlier research, we found the anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and mitochondrial protective properties of SSR in hypoxic kidney injury model, which is closely related to its renal protection. Further work is needed to understand the underlying molecular mechanisms.
    Purpose: Further investigation of the mechanisms of action of SSR against renal interstitial fibrosis (RIF) building on previous research leads.
    Methods: Rats receiving CKD model surgery were given with Fenofibrate or SSR once a day for eight weeks. In vitro, the NRK-52E cells were treated with SSR in the presence or absence of 10 μM Sc75741, 0.5 μM PMA, or 1 μM fenofibrate under 1% O
    Results: SSR attenuated the release of IL-18, VEGF, and MCP1 cytokines, inhibited the activation of NF-κB/NLRP3 cascade, increased the PPARα, CPT-1α, CPT-2, ACADL, and MCAD protein expression, and improved the lipid accumulation. Further studies have demonstrated that one of the ways in which SSR suppresses the inflammatory response to protect renal tubular cells is through the restoration of PPARα-mediated FAO. In addition, by means of co-culture ways, the results demonstrated that SSR attenuated secretion of inflammatory mediators in NRK-52E cells by PPARα/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway, thereby inhibiting renal fibroblast activation.
    Conclusion: SSR inhibits RIF by suppressing inflammatory response of hypoxia-exposed RTECs through PPARα-mediated FAO.

    Abstract Clearance of protein-bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) by dialysis is a challenge in the treatment of uremic patients. Shen-Shuai-Ning (SSN), a traditional Chinese medicine formulation, has been used commonly in China to retard kidney disease progression and decrease uremic toxins in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, but the effects of SSN on serum PBUTs in dialysis patients were not investigated. We conducted a randomized controlled trial in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) at dialysis center of Changzheng Hospital to evaluate the effects of SSN on serum PBUTs. Participants with SSN intervention took 5 g SSN granule three times daily for 12 weeks, while the baseline medications and dialysis prescriptions remained during the study in all patients. The serum concentrations of indoxyl sulphate (IS) and

    Abstract Objective: To explore the effect of Shen Shuai Fang in treating Chronic Renal Failure (CRF) of deficiency of spleen and kidney with turbid damp and blood stagnation symptom.
    Methods: 125 patients with CRF of deficiency of spleen and kidney with turbid damp and blood stagnation symptom were randomly divided into two groups, 75 patients in treatment group were treated with Shen Shuai Fang adding western medicine and the other patients in control group were treated only with western medicine. We observed the effect and indexes change including renal function, Hb, proteinuria, lipid before and after treatment.
    Results: After six months' treatment, the general effective rate in treatment group was 77.33%, which was higher than that in control group obviously (44.00%, P < 0.01). So treatment group was obviously better than control group on decreasing proteinuria, improving renal function, increasing Hb, ameliorating lipid metabolism (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01).
    Conclusion: Shen Shuai Fang is effective to treat CRF of deficiency of spleen and kidney with turbid damp and blood stagnation symptom.

    Abstract This open access book mainly focuses on the safe control of robot manipulators. The control schemes are mainly developed based on dynamic neural network, which is an important theoretical branch of deep reinforcement learning. In order to enhance the safety performance of robot systems, the control strategies include adaptive tracking control for robots with model uncertainties, compliance control in uncertain environments, obstacle avoidance in dynamic workspace. The idea for this book on solving safe control of robot arms was conceived during the industrial applications and the research discussion in the laboratory. Most of the materials in this book are derived from the authors' papers published in journals, such as IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, neurocomputing, et cetera This book can be used as a reference book for researcher and designer of the robotic systems and AI based controllers, and can also be used as a reference book for senior undergraduate and graduate students in colleges and universities

    Abstract This open access book focuses on robot introspection, which has a direct impact on physical human-robot interaction and long-term autonomy, and which can benefit from autonomous anomaly monitoring and diagnosis, as well as anomaly recovery strategies. In robotics, the ability to reason, solve their own anomalies and proactively enrich owned knowledge is a direct way to improve autonomous behaviors. To this end, the authors start by considering the underlying pattern of multimodal observation during robot manipulation, which can effectively be modeled as a parametric hidden Markov model (HMM). They then adopt a nonparametric Bayesian approach in defining a prior using the hierarchical Dirichlet process (HDP) on the standard HMM parameters, known as the Hierarchical Dirichlet Process Hidden Markov Model (HDP-HMM). The HDP-HMM can examine an HMM with an unbounded number of possible states and allows flexibility in the complexity of the learned model and the development of reliable and scalable variational inference methods. This book is a valuable reference resource for researchers and designers in the field of robot learning and multimodal perception, as well as for senior undergraduate and graduate university students
