In this paper we argue for a human-in-the-loop approach to the study of situation awareness in computer defence analysis (CDA). The cognitive phenomenon of situation awareness (SA) has received significant attention in cybersecurity/CDA research. Yet little of this work has attended to the cognitive aspects of situation awareness in the CDA context; instead, the human operator has been treated ...

The Health Level 7 Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) is widely accepted as the format for electronic clinical document. With the rich ontological references in CDA documents, the ontology-based semantic query could be performed to retrieve CDA documents. In this paper, we present iSMART (interactive Semantic MedicAl Record reTrieval), a prototype system designed for ontology-based semantic q...

PURPOSE To investigate the test-retest variability of and factors associated with the corneal deformation response, and evaluate its impact on IOP measurement. METHODS Forty normal and 140 glaucoma suspect/glaucomatous eyes of 104 individuals were prospectively included for repeated measurements of corneal deformation response by an ultra-high-speed Scheimpflug camera, followed by corneal hys...

Many people know of Health Level 7 (HL7) as an organization that creates health care messaging standards. Health Level 7 is also developing standards for the representation of clinical documents (such as discharge summaries and progress notes). These document standards make up the HL7 Clinical Document Architecture (CDA). The HL7 CDA Framework, release 1.0, became an ANSI-approved HL7 standard ...

The effectiveness of three central auditory processing (CAP) tests was evaluated using clinical decision analysis (CDA) procedures. The tests under study were the Dichotic Digits Test (DDT), the Auditory Duration Patterns Test (ADPT), and the P300 evoked potential test (P300). Subjects with normal hearing, sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), and central lesions provided the data for CDA analyses...

Continuous Descent Approach (CDA) procedures can be effective at reducing aircraft noise in the vicinity of airports. The human factors implications for the air traffic controller of transitioning from conventional to CDA procedures are addressed in this paper. Different types of CDA procedures are introduced and models are developed of the controller tasks undertaken during current approach op...

Hydrops fetalis is rarely caused by congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (CDA). We report a patient with hydrops fetalis as a result of severe anemia. This patient needed intrauterine transfusions from 21 weeks of gestation until birth. The hematologic study showed an atypical CDA (hydrops fetalis-associated CDA) characterized by features resembling CDA type II, but negative acidified serum lysi...

The paper argues that CDA (Critical Discourse Analysis) provides an appropriate research framework for analyzing textbooks with regard to the identification of cultural depictions. By drawing some examples concerning the techniques used in textbook analysis, this paper has come to suggest that each technique reflects aspects of the three major paradigms such as positivism, critical theory and i...

Dimension reduction techniques are widely used for the analysis and visualization of complex sets of data. This paper compares two nonlinear projection methods: Isomap and Curvilinear Distance Analysis. Contrarily to the traditional linear PCA, these methods work like multidimensional scaling, by reproducing in the projection space the pairwise distances measured in the data space. They differ ...

The pharmacokinetic parameters of cladribine (CdA) in patient plasma and its intracellular nucleotides CdA 5’monophosphate (CdAMP) and CdA 5’-triphosphate (CdATP) were delineated in circulating leukemia cells in 17 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, after the last dose intake and up to 72 h thereafter. Patients were treated with 10 mg/m2 CdA p.o. on 3 consecutive days. A novel and spec...
