This paper is a survey of recent results concerning connections between relation algebras (RA), cylindric algebras (CA) and polyadic equality algebras (PEA). We describe exactly which subsets of the standard axioms for RA are needed for axiomatizing RA over the RA-reducts of CA3’s, and we do the same for the class SA of semi-associative relation algebras. We also characterize the class of RA-re...

OBJECTIVE To validate and compare the decision rules to identify rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in administrative databases. METHODS A study was performed using administrative health care data from a population of 1 million people who had access to universal health care. Information was available on hospital discharge abstracts and physician billings. RA cases in health administrative databases we...

The framework of document spanners abstracts the task information extraction from text as a function that maps every (a string) into relation over document's spans (intervals identified by their start and end indices). For instance, regular are closure under Relational Algebra (RA) expressions with capture variables, expressive power is precisely captured class VSet-automata -- restricted trans...

OBJECTIVE To systematically review the general and comparative efficacy and safety of anakinra for rheumatoid arthritis. METHODS We searched MEDLINE((R)), Embase, The Cochrane Library, and the International Pharmaceutical Abstracts from 1980 to April 2009. We manually searched reference lists of pertinent review articles and explored the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research database. For e...

An abstract is the selling point of a research article (RA), due to fact that it can help readers and particularly journal reviewers in selecting which RAs are remarkable be read further accepted. A plethora has analyzed rhetorical moves linguistic features accepted RAAs. Nevertheless, almost none them have explored rejected one, based on authors’ affiliation. Invoking Hyland’s (2000) move mode...

The effectiveness of biologic therapies now means that remission or low disease activity are realistic targets for treatment. However, after achieving remission/low disease activity, the next steps remain unclear. The aim of this publication was to conduct a broad systematic literature review to evaluate dosing down of biologics. After screening papers and abstracts for relevance and applicatio...
