This paper presents the Open Annotation and Tagging System (OATS) which draws on previous work in social navigation support, web annotations systems, collaborative tagging and educational metadata. The OATS system augments the text highlighting metaphor by providing a “collaborative tagging” and annotation interface which enables social navigation support. These tools aim to help learners in le...

BACKGROUND Treatment of coeliac disease (CD) requires lifelong adherence to a strict gluten free diet (GFD) which hitherto has consisted of a diet free of wheat, rye, barley, and oats. Recent studies, mainly in adults, have shown that oats are non-toxic to CD patients. In children, only open studies comprising a small number of patients have been performed. AIM To determine if children with C...

A strict gluten-free diet (GFD) can be diversified by non-contaminated oats, but there is a shortage of long-term studies concerning its safety. We compared long-term treatment outcomes and factors associated with the introduction of oats between celiac patients on a GFD with or without oats. Eight hundred sixty-nine previously diagnosed celiac patients were interviewed. The validated Gastroint...

Materials and Methods The Neely-Kinyon Long-term Agroecological Research (LTAR) site was established in 1998 to study the long-term effects of organic production in Iowa. Treatments at the LTAR site, replicated four times in a completely randomized design, include the following rotations: conventional corn-soybean (C-S), organic corn-soybean-oats/alfalfa (C-S-O/A), organic corn-soybean-oats/alf...

Whole-grain foods such as oats may protect against colorectal cancer and have benefits on inflammatory bowel disease and coeliac disease. The present study aimed to systematically review the literature describing intervention studies that investigated the effects of oats or oat bran on risk factors for bowel disease. A literature search was conducted using Embase, Medline and the Cochrane libra...

The present experiment was performed according to a 4 3 4 Latin square design with diets composed of (on dry matter (DM) basis) the following ratios of grass hay to whole oats: 100:0 (O0), 80:20 (O20), 60:40 (O40) and 40:60 (O60). Four mature Standardbred geldings weighing 493 (S.D. 34) kg were used. The digestibility of DM, organic matter and energy (dE) increased in a curvilinear pattern with...

The effect of addition of oats and barley to the glutenfree diets of a group of patients with coeliac disease has been studied using the oral 5 g xylose excretion test to assess small bowel function before and after these supplementations. Both oats and barley were found to be potentially harmful to coeliac patients although the toxic effect of barley was more readily produced than that of oats...

The measurement of electromagnetic interference can be performed e.g. on open area test sites with different shapes and sizes, which are defined in ANSI C63.4 [1] and CISPR 16-1 [2]. For EMC compliance measurements the normalized site attenuation (NSA) has to be measured and compared with the calculated NSA [3]. If the deviation is too high, an extension of the groundplane is recommended. This ...
