In this paper we focus on adaptive instruction and especially on the educational perspective that should underlie the development of web-based Adaptive Educational Hypermedia (AEH) systems used for Internet-based distance education. A design rational and guidelines are proposed for adaptive instruction in the context of AEH systems, which unify several processes that formulate system’s adaptati...

This research is concerned with harnessing collaborative approaches for the authoring of Adaptive Educational Hypermedia (AEH) systems. It involves the enhancement of Semantic Wikis with pedagogy aware features to this end. There are many challenges in understanding how communities of interest can efficiently collaborate for learning content authoring, in introducing pedagogy to the developed k...

The Asymptotic Expansion Homogenization (AEH) is a multiscale technique applied to estimate effective properties of heterogeneous media with periodic structure. The main advantages of AEH are the reduction of the problem size and the ability to employ an homogenized property that keeps information from the heterogeneous microstructure. The aim of this work is to develop a parallel program that ...

Objective: To evaluate the reliability and accuracy of frozen section (FS) compared with final pathology and to determine whether they should be obligatory in every patient with atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH). Methods: We retrospectively assessed the medical records of 192 patients whose endometrial biopsy results were endometrial hyperplasia and underwent hysterectomy at our center. Re...

Lanadelumab anticuerpo monoclonal humano, inhibidor específico calicreína plasmática, aprobado para pro...

Piroxicam is one of the important therapeutic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory class of drugs used mainly to suppress pain and inflammation in arthritis and other musculoskeletal disorders. Besides being anti-inflammatory, these drugs are analgesic and antipyretic often used for the relief of nonspecific fever condition. Recently, piroxicam has also gained attention as an effective therapy for tu...

BACKGROUND Initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) in early HIV infection demonstrates clinical benefits including enhanced CD4 T-lymphocyte recovery and minimization of the latent HIV reservoir. Whether ART intensification with CCR5 blockade provides additional benefits is unknown. TRIAL DESIGN This randomized controlled trial evaluated the impact of maraviroc (MVC) intensification in per...

A 19-year-old female with sickle cell anemia (SCD) was referred to our hospital after two days of hospitalization at another hospital for a headache crisis. This headache crisis was due to a raised intracranial pressure; these symptoms were noted and included in her comprehensive list of symptoms. There was an acute drop in the hemoglobin and hematocrit levels. The cranial CT scan demonstrated ...

This paper reports about the recent advances towards establishing a common platform for adaptive educational hypermedia (AEH) authoring. We present the conversion from MOT, a dedicated authoring system, to AHA! used in this context as delivery system for AEH. Moreover, we describe two new representation languages that emerged in the process: a common format for defining the static material, CAF...
