Routinely recorded versus dedicated time registrations during trauma work-up

Routinely recorded versus dedicated time registrations during trauma work-up

INTRODUCTION Since time intervals are used to determine quality of trauma care, it is relevant to know how reliable those intervals can be measured. The aim of our study was to assess the reliability of time intervals as recorded in our hospital databases. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a prospective study on time intervals in our level-1 trauma centre and compared those with the routinely...

Comparison of dementia recorded in routinely collected hospital admission data in England with dementia recorded in primary care

BACKGROUND Electronic linkage of UK cohorts to routinely collected National Health Service (NHS) records provides virtually complete follow-up for cause-specific hospital admissions and deaths. The reliability of dementia diagnoses recorded in NHS hospital data is not well documented. METHODS For a sample of Million Women Study participants in England we compared dementia recorded in routinel...

In-vivo Optical Imaging and Spectroscopy of Cerebral Hemodynamics Chao Zhou Arjun G. Yodh Functional optical imaging techniques, such as diffuse optical imaging and spectroscopy and laser speckle imaging (LSI), were used in research and clinical settings to measure cerebral hemodynamics. In this thesis, theoretical and experimental developments of the techniques and their in-vivo applications r...

Context is routinely encoded during emotion perception.

In the present study, we investigated whether context is routinely encoded during emotion perception. For the first time, we show that people remember the context more often when asked to label an emotion in a facial expression than when asked to judge the expression's simple affective significance (which can be done on the basis of the structural features of the face alone). Our findings are c...
