BACKGROUND Currently, only one in three UK medical students undertake an intercalated degree. This has often been implicated as a result of financial obstacles or a lack of interest in research due to inadequate exposure to academic medicine. The aims of this study were to determine whether exposure to research early in medical school, through the initiation of an early years clinical academic ...

In the beginning a command prompt based C++ application was created to control a Rotary ASRS using a RS232 serial interface. Later by implementing the logic and the functions of the program a new one was created. Using Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 and Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) a Graphical User Interface (GUI) program was developed to control the robot and to manage its database. The MFC ap...

Using the trend of age-standardized incidence rate of cancers (ASR) is inaccurate for registration with incomplete reporting, especially in developing registries. The relative age-standardized ratio (RASR) is a new measure that takes ascertainment bias of registration into account. RASR is calculated from the ASR for each cancer divided by the ASR for leukemia. Leukemia was chosen as the refere...

METHODS Out of 539 mood disorders subjects, the medical records of 138 BD subjects were scrutinized in terms ...

OBJECTIVE Our study aims to describe changes in carcinoma in situ (CIS) and invasive cervical carcinoma (ICC) in Korean women diagnosed between 1993 and 2009. METHODS All cases of CIS and invasive cervical carcinoma diagnosed from 1993 to 2009 in the Korean National Cancer Incidence database were analyzed. Age-standardized rates (ASRs) and annual percent changes (APCs) in incidence rates were...

BACKGROUND Depression is common in adolescents, with a gender bias towards girls. Symptoms associated with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) tend to co-occur in depressed adolescents. This may be related to common features between the two symptom domains, but co-occurring ADHD symptoms may also inflate the severity of depression. The present study investigates the frequency and in...

In this position paper we describe an interface to incorporate application-specific knowledge for conflict resolution in an optimistically replicated file system. Conflicts arise in such systems because replicas of an object can be modified simultaneously in different network partitions. Application-specific knowledge is made available by the application writer in specialized tools called Appli...
