Methods Inclusion criteria were an expected length of stay in the ICU of at least 72h, age ≥ 18 years, and availability of informed consent given by patient or legal proxy. Sensors were inserted into subcutaneous tissue of the patient’s thigh, quantifying interstitial glucose concentration based on glucose oxidase reaction. Measurements were collected for up to 72h, while calibrations took plac...

Chinese word similarity computing is a fundamental task for natural language processing. This paper presents a method to calculate the similarity between Chinese words based on combination strategy. We apply Baidubaike to train Word2Vector model, and then integrate different methods, Dictionarybased method, Word2Vector-based method and Chinese FrameNet (CFN)based method, to calculate the semant...

AIMS To systematically identify global research gaps and resource priorities for integrated community case management (iCCM). METHODS An iCCM Child Health and Nutrition Research Initiative (CHNRI) Advisory Group, in collaboration with the Community Case Management Operational Research Group (CCM ORG) identified experts to participate in a CHNRI research priority setting exercise. These expert...

The objective of this study was to describe the development and initial psychometric analysis of the UK English version of the Duchenne muscular dystrophy FunctionalAbility Self-AssessmentTool (DMDSAT), a patient-reported outcome (PRO) scale designed to measure functional ability in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).

Next-generation sequencing in clinical diagnostics is providing valuable genomic variant data, which can be used to support healthcare decisions. In silico tools to predict pathogenicity are crucial to assess such variants and we have evaluated a new tool, Combined Annotation Dependent Depletion (CADD), and its classification of gene variants in Lynch syndrome by using a set of 2,210 DNA mismat...
