BACKGROUND This study was designed as a quasi-experiment to evaluate automatic inoculation of fecal specimens, using the automated specimen inoculator Previ Isola (bioMérieux, France). METHODS We evaluated the quality of cultures, recovery rates of enteropathogenic bacteria (Salmonella, Shigella, Campylobacter, and Yersinia species), and cost-effectiveness in terms of technical time. The Prev...

We present a numerical strategy to compute one-parameter families of isolas of equilibrium solutions in ODEs. Isolas are solution branches closed in parameter space. Numerical continuation is required to compute one single isola since it contains at least one unstable segment. We show how to use pseudo-arclength predictor-corrector schemes in order to follow an entire isola in parameter space, ...

In this paper, a software package for multipleor single-point source inversion is presented. The package consists of ISOLA-GUI, a user-friendly MATLAB-based interface, and the ISOLA Fortran code, which is the computational core of the application. The methodology used is similar to iterative deconvolution technique, often used in teleseismic studies, but here adjusted for regional and local dis...

Recently, Guido, Isola and Lapidus [11] defined the Ihara zeta function of a fractal graph, and gave a determinant expression of it. We define the Bartholdi zeta function of a fractal graph, and present its determinant expression.

The study was aimed to adapt the Perception of Loneliness in Isolation Scale (ISOLA) into Turkish and examine psychometric properties scale. sample methodological cross-sectional consisted 154 patients who were isolation due COVID-19. characteristics scale analyzed by using language equivalence, content validity, confirmatory factor analysis, criterion-related internal consistency, test-retest ...
