The XQR18V04 was evaluated for single event upset rates using proton and heavy ions. The PROM was demonstrated to be immune to latch-up, as well as to static upset in the flash memory cells, to an LET > 125 MeV/mg/cmz (effective). The PROM was also tested in a dynamic mode, which revealed three distinct error modes: Read Bit Errors, Address Errors, and a Single Event Functional Interrupt (SEW w...

The present study investigates how task difficulty and time constraint affect prospective memory (ProM) performance in programmer multitasking (N = 60). The results indicate that an increase in task difficulty and time constraint has a detrimental effect on ProM performance. Moreover, participants are able to successfully complete fewer difficult programs as compared to easier programs regardle...

Process mining is an active field of research that primarily builds upon data mining and process model-driven analysis. Within the field, static data is typically used. The usage of dynamic and/or volatile data (i.e. real-time streaming data) is very limited. Current process mining techniques are in general not able to cope with challenges posed by real-time data. Hence new approaches that enab...

With the increasing prominence of the patients' involvement in the care they receive, the assessment of outcomes based on the patient's perspective using patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), are increasingly accompanying the traditional clinical ways of measuring health and the effects of treatment on the patient. This article provides an overview as to what PROMs are and the different he...

Nowadays, all kinds of information systems store detailed information in logs. Process mining has emerged as a way to analyze these systems based on these detailed logs. Unlike classical data mining, the focus of process mining is on processes. First, process mining allows us to extract a process model from an event log. Second, it allows us to detect discrepancies between a modeled process (as...

Objective: Diagnosis of premature rupture of membranes (PROM) is difficult in equivocal cases with traditional methods. This study aimed to evaluate the reliability of vaginal washing fluid urea and creatinine for diagnosis of PROM and to determine the cut off value. Materials and methods: The current study was a prospective case control. Women having gestational age of 28 to 42 weeks were divi...

OBJECTIVES To explore the views of a range of stakeholders regarding whether patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) can be developed to measure key attributes of long-term conditions (LTCs) care in England, and the potential value of a single generic measure. DESIGN Qualitative semistructured interview study, analysed using a framework approach. PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING Interviews with 3...

BACKGROUND Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and mobile technology have the potential to change the way patients are monitored following joint replacement surgery. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of text messaging to record PROMs in long-term follow-up of hip and knee arthroplasty. Our participants were 17 patients 2-years-plus post hip or knee arthrop...

BACKGROUND Vitamin C is involved in the synthesis and degradation of collagen and is important for maintenance of the chorioamniotic membranes. Inadequate availability of ascorbic acid during pregnancy has been proposed as a risk factor for premature rupture of the chorioamniotic membranes (PROM). OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of 100 mg vitamin C/d in ...
