After the publication of the article, the authors noted that they had made the following errors. In Fig. 5B, total PDK1 is incorrect in the published paper. The corrected version of Fig. 5B is shown below. Also in Fig. 6B, the DMSO-treated group and the brassinin (400 µM)-treated group are incorrect, and the corrected Fig. 6B is shown below. The corrected figures demonstrate the same findings a...

Objective Globozoospermia is a rare syndrome with an incidence of less than 0.1% among infertile men. Researchers have recently identified a large deletion, about 200 kbp, encompassing the whole length of DPY19L2 or mutations in SPATA16 and PICK1 genes associated with globozoospermia. The aim of this study was to analyze the DPY19L2 gene deletion using polymerase chain reaction technique for th...

We present a new method for automatically grading introductory programming assignments. In order to use this method, instructors provide a reference implementation of the assignment, and an error model consisting of potential corrections to errors that students might make. Using this information, the system automatically derives minimal corrections to student’s incorrect solutions, providing th...

Due to modeling errors in designing ontologies, an ontology may carry incorrect information. Ontology debugging can be helpful in detecting errors in ontologies that are increasing in size and expressiveness day by day. While current ontology debugging methods can detect logical errors (incoherences and inconsistencies), they are incapable of detecting hidden modeling errors in coherent and con...

BACKGROUND Patients consider multiple parameters in adjusting prandial insulin doses for optimal glycemic control. Difficulties in calculations can lead to incorrect doses or induce patients to administer fixed doses, rely on empirical estimates, or skip boluses. METHOD A multicenter study was conducted with 205 diabetes subjects who were on multiple daily injections of rapid/ short-acting in...

Remote Afterloading Brachytherapy (RAB) is a cancer treatment process that uses ionizing radiation from radioactive materials to retard or destroy tumors. RAB uses a computer-controlled device to insert radioactive sources in or adjacent to the tissue to be exposed. Human errors and equipment failures in the RAB process can lead to the administration of incorrect radiation doses, the insertion ...

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a highly unstable problem with respect to measurement and modeling errors. This instability is especially severe when absolute imaging is considered. With clinical measurements, accurate knowledge about the body shape is usually not available, and therefore an approximate model domain has to be used in the computational model. It has earlier been shown t...

We provide the first tool for verifying the logic of contextaware applications written for the mainstream sensor network operating system TinyOS; we focus on detecting programming errors related to incorrect adaptation to context.

OBJECTIVE The HEART score can accurately stratify the risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in patients with chest pain. We investigated the frequency, circumstances and potential consequences of errors in its calculation. METHODS We performed a secondary analysis of a stepped wedge trial of patients with chest pain presenting to nine Dutch emergency departments. We recalculated HEART s...
