Electronic Health Record-Based Interventions for Reducing Inappropriate Imaging in the Clinical Setting: A Systematic Review of the Evidence

PREFACE Quality Enhancement Research Initiative's (QUERI) Evidence-based Synthesis Program (ESP) was established to provide timely and accurate syntheses of targeted healthcare topics of particular importance to Veterans Affairs (VA) clinicians, managers and policymakers as they work to improve the health and healthcare of Veterans. The ESP disseminates these reports throughout the VA, and some evidence syntheses inform the clinical guidelines of large professional organizations. QUERI provides funding for four ESP Centers and each Center has an active university affiliation. The ESP Centers generate evidence syntheses on important clinical practice topics, and these reports help: • develop clinical policies informed by evidence; • guide the implementation of effective services to improve patient outcomes and to support VA clinical practice guidelines and performance measures; and • set the direction for future research to address gaps in clinical knowledge. In 2009, the ESP Coordinating Center was created to expand the capacity of HSR&D Central Office and the four ESP sites by developing and maintaining program processes. In addition, the Center established a Steering Committee comprised of QUERI field-based investigators, VA Patient Care Services, Office of Quality and Performance, and Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISN) Clinical Management Officers. The Steering Committee provides program oversight, guides strategic planning, coordinates dissemination activities, and develops collaborations with VA leadership to identify new ESP topics of importance to Veterans and the VA healthcare system.

PREVENTING CHRONIC DISEASE

Introduction Cancer worry varies among patients and may influence their participation in preventive activities. We tested whether sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle, locus of control, comorbidity, and perceived health status were associated with the level of cancer worry among adults aged 50 or older. Methods We conducted an observational cross-sectional study of 666 adults in Spain aged 50 or older. Participants were selected by simple random sampling and asked to visit their designated health center for a personal interview. The study variables were level of cancer worry (measured by Cancer Worry Scale [CWS]), sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle, personal history or family history of cancer, comorbidity, self-perceived health, locus of control, and social support. Results More than half of participants, 58.1%, were women; mean age was 60.5 years (standard deviation [SD], 6.8 y). Measurement of the frequency and severity of cancer worry (possible scale of 6–24 points) yielded a mean CWS score of 9.3 (95% confidence interval, 9.0–9.5); 31.9% of participants reported being concerned about cancer. Scores were higher among women (9.7 [SD, 3.3]) than men (8.7 [SD, 2.7]) (P < .001) and among participants in rural settings (10.0 [SD, 3.4]) than in urban settings (9.0 [SD, 3.0]) (P < .001). Multiple linear regression showed a greater degree of cancer worry among people with personal or family history of cancer, more health problems, worse self-perceived health, and lower social support. Conclusion Cancer worry is frequent among older adults, and the level of such concern is related not only to personal characteristics but also to lifestyle and health status. Further research is required to understand how contextual factors can influence cancer worry and how such concern changes behavior patterns related to cancer prevention activities.
Ju n 20 09 The Y ( 4140 ) , X ( 4260 ) , ψ ( 2 D ) , ψ ( 4 S ) , and tentative ψ ( 3 D )

Data on B+ → J/ψ φK+ and the Y (4140) enhancement recently reported by the CDF Collaboration [1] are analyzed. The threshold behavior, as well as traces of the X(4260) enhancement, the known cc̄ resonances ψ(2D), ψ(4S), and a tentative ψ(3D) state, as observed in the mass distribution, suggest that the J/ψ φ system has quantum numbers J = 1. It is then argued that the Y (4140) enhancement does not represent any kind of resonance, but instead is a natural consequence of the opening of the J/ψ φ channel. In Ref. [1], the CDF Collaboration displayed the invariant-mass spectrum of J/ψ φ for the world’s largest sample (75 events) of exclusive B → J/ψφK decays, produced in p̄p collisions at √ s = 1.96 TeV, and collected by the CDF-II detector at the Tevatron (Fermilab). The experimental analysis revealed evidence for a narrow structure near the J/ψ φ threshold, with significance in excess of 3. 8σ. Assuming an S-wave relativistic Breit-Wigner approximation, the mass and width of this structure were determined as 4143.0 ± 2.9(stat) ± 1.2(syst) MeV/c, and 11.7 −5.0(stat) ± 3.7(syst) MeV/c, respectively. The J/ψ φ enhancement, which was baptized Y (4140) by the CDF Collaboration, has been studied in a variety of theoretical models, namely as a D s D̄ ∗ s molecule with J PC = 0 or J = 2, [2–6] or an exotic hybrid charmonium state with J = 1 [3,7]. It was also shown that the Y (4140) is probably not the second radial excitation of any of the P -wave charmonium states [8]. Finally, in Ref. [7] it was argued that the Y (4140) cannot be a D s D̄ ∗ s molecule. Surprisingly, no tetraquark proposals have circulated yet. The CDF Collaboration observed that the J/ψ φ enhancement is well above the threshold for open-charm decays, and a cc̄ charmonium resonance with this mass would be expected to

This paper aims to review research done to date on the presence of the English language in Zimbabwe. Recent submissions by Kadenge and Nkomo (2011) indicate that the presence of English in Zimbabwe is a reality that Zimbabweans can only do well to put up with since it plays vital communication functions in the country. These authors recommend that it is a prudent compromise to nurture the Zimbabwean variety of English which captures the idiom, expression and spirit of the Zimbabwean. This paper thus aims to review current research on Zimbabwean English, preparatory to an analysis of the specific linguistic features of the variety. The paper reveals that there is scanty research on the phenomenon of Zimbabwean English and thus builds a case for further research in the variety, particularly research that adopts the corpus-based approach. It also emerges from this review that though there are some studies that have begun to make forays into the linguistic characteristics of Zimbabwean English, early research on the variety has had little to do with the linguistic aspects of the variety. The paper argues that exploring the linguistic characteristics of Zimbabwean English is an effective way of resolving controversies over the ontological status of one of the lesser-known varieties of English.

Management of idiopathic oligoasthenospermia with lycopene

Idiopathic oligoasthenosperinia accounts. for almost 24% of all male infertility. The role of free radicals as a cause of such male infertility has been established recently. We undertook a study to establish the role of Lycopene (antioxidant) in management of such infertile males due to free radicals. A total number of 50 patients having no obvious cause for their infertility with normal hormone profile and antisperin antibody titre but showing oligoasthenospermia were given Lycopene (Lycored) 8 mg daily till their sperm analysis improved to optimal level or pregnancy was achieved. Regular, follow-up for one year with sperm analysis was done. Result showed a 36% pregnancy rate with improvement of sperm count and functional sperm concentration in 70% and 60% respectively, sperm motility and sperm motility index improved in 54% and 46% while 38% showed improvement in sperm morphology. There were no side effects with good patient compliance. Conclusion: Lycopene supplementation has a definite role in management of idiopathic oligoasthenospermia.
Combinatorics of the geometry of Wilson loop diagrams II: Grassmann necklaces, dimensions, and denominators

Abstract Wilson loop diagrams are an important tool in studying scattering amplitudes of SYM $N=4$ theory and are known by previous work to be associated to positroids. In this paper, we study the structure of the associated positroids, as well as the structure of the denominator of the integrand defined by each diagram. We give an algorithm to derive the Grassmann necklace of the associated positroid directly from the Wilson loop diagram, and a recursive proof that the dimension of these cells is thrice the number of propagators in the diagram. We also show that the ideal generated by the denominator in the integrand is the radical of the ideal generated by the product of Grassmann necklace minors.
Do Sentence Interactions Matter? Leveraging Sentence Level Representations for Fake News Classification

The rising growth of fake news and misleading information through online media outlets demands an automatic method for detecting such news articles. Of the few limited works which differentiate between trusted vs other types of news article (satire, propaganda, hoax), none of them model sentence interactions within a document. We observe an interesting pattern in the way sentences interact with each other across different kind of news articles. To capture this kind of information for long news articles, we propose a graph neural network-based model which does away with the need of feature engineering for fine grained fake news classification. Through experiments, we show that our proposed method beats strong neural baselines and achieves state-of-the-art accuracy on existing datasets. Moreover, we establish the generalizability of our model by evaluating its performance in out-of-domain scenarios. Code is available at https://github.com/MysteryVaibhav/fake_news_semantics.
Asma y Nifedipina: estudio comparativo del efecto profiláctico de la Nifedipina frente al Ketotifeno y placebo en Asma Alérgica Infantil

Se presentan los resultados de un estudio doble ciego, al azar, que comparó los efectos de la Nifedipina, una dihidropiridina antagonista del calcio, de amplia utilización cardiovascular, con los del Ketotifeno y los de un placebo; cada uno de ellos fue administrado por vía oral cada 12 horas, durante 4 meses, a un grupo de 20 niños mayores de 5 años con asma alérgica de una evolución mínima de 2 años; el estudio se llevó a cabo en el Servicio de Alergias del Hospital Universitario San Vicente de Paúl, de Medellín, Colombia, entre julio de 1984 y diciembre de 1986. La Nifedipina produjo disminución de la frecuencia de las crisis en 17 pacientes (85%) y de su intensidad y duración en 16 (80%); en esta misma proporción (80%) se disminuyó el consumo de broncodilatadores; 18 pacientes (90%) informaron efectos benéficos de la Nifedipina y la mejoría, evaluada por el médico, se halló en 14 (70%). No hubo con la Nifedipina modificaciones del pulso ni de la presión arterial ni, tampoco, de 14 pruebas de función pulmonar; los efectos secundarlos fueron mínimos y autolimitados. Los resultados obtenidos con la Nifedipina fueron estadísticamente semejantes a los del Ketotifeno y, los de ambos, significativamente superiores a los logrados con el placebo (p
Finite descent obstruction for Hilbert modular varieties

Abstract Let S be a finite set of primes. We prove that a form of finite Galois descent obstruction is the only obstruction to the existence of $\mathbb {Z}_{S}$ -points on integral models of Hilbert modular varieties, extending a result of D. Helm and F. Voloch about modular curves. Let L be a totally real field. Under (a special case of) the absolute Hodge conjecture and a weak Serre’s conjecture for mod $\ell $ representations of the absolute Galois group of L, we prove that the same holds also for the $\mathcal {O}_{L,S}$ -points.
Mockingjay: Unsupervised Speech Representation Learning with Deep Bidirectional Transformer Encoders

We present Mockingjay as a new speech representation learning approach, where bidirectional Transformer encoders are pre-trained on a large amount of unlabeled speech. Previous speech representation methods learn through conditioning on past frames and predicting information about future frames. Whereas Mockingjay is designed to predict the current frame through jointly conditioning on both past and future contexts. The Mockingjay representation improves performance for a wide range of downstream tasks, including phoneme classification, speaker recognition, and sentiment classification on spoken content, while outperforming other approaches. Mockingjay is empirically powerful and can be fine-tuned with downstream models, with only 2 epochs we further improve performance dramatically. In a low resource setting with only 0.1% of labeled data, we outperform the result of Mel-features that uses all 100% labeled data.
Caltech–NRAO Stripe 82 Survey (CNSS). III. The First Radio-discovered Tidal Disruption Event, CNSS J0019+00

We present the discovery of a nuclear transient with the Caltech–NRAO Stripe 82 Survey (CNSS), a dedicated radio transient survey carried out with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA). This transient, CNSS J001947.3+003527, exhibited a turn-on over a timescale of ≲1 yr, increasing in flux density at 3 GHz from <0.14 mJy in 2014 February to 4.4 ± 0.1 mJy in 2015 March, reaching a peak luminosity of around 2015 October. The association of CNSS J0019+00 with the nucleus (Gaia and our very-long baseline interferometry positions are consistent to within 1 pc) of a nearby S0 Seyfert galaxy at 77 Mpc, together with the radio spectral evolution, implies that this transient is most likely a tidal disruption event (TDE). Our equipartition analysis indicates the presence of a ∼15,000 km s−1 outflow, having energy ∼1049 erg. We derive the radial density profile for the circumnuclear material in the host galaxy to be proportional to R −2.5. All of these properties suggest resemblance with radio-detected thermal TDEs like ASASSN-14li and XMMSL1 J0740-85. No significant X-ray or optical emission is detected from CNSS J0019+00, although this may simply be due to the thermal emission being weak during our late-time follow-up observations. From the CNSS survey we have obtained the first unbiased measurement of the rate of radio TDEs, R(>500μJy) of about 2 × 10−3 deg−2, or equivalently a volumetric rate of about 10 Gpc−3 yr−1. This rate implies that all-sky radio surveys such as the VLA Sky Survey and those planned with ASKAP, will find many tens of radio TDEs over the next few years.
enriched–formations by characterization of each layer in the borehole is of enormous importance to the explorers

This paper presents a novel pre-processing scheme to improve the prediction of sand fraction from multiple seismic attributes such as seismic impedance, amplitude and frequency using machine learning and information filtering. The available well logs along with the 3-D seismic data have been used to benchmark the proposed pre-processing stage using a methodology which primarily consists of three steps: preprocessing, training and post-processing. An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) with conjugate-gradient learning algorithm has been used to model the sand fraction. The available sand fraction data from the high resolution well logs has far more information content than the low resolution seismic attributes. Therefore, regularization schemes based on Fourier Transform (FT), Wavelet Decomposition (WD) and Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) have been proposed to shape the high resolution sand fraction data for effective machine learning. The input data sets have been segregated into training, testing and validation sets. The test results are primarily used to check different network structures and activation function performances. Once the network passes the testing phase with an acceptable performance in terms of the selected evaluators, the validation phase follows. In the validation stage, the prediction model is tested against unseen data. The network yielding satisfactory performance in the validation stage is used to predict lithological properties from seismic attributes throughout a given volume. Finally, a post-processing scheme using 3-D spatial filtering is implemented for smoothing the sand fraction in the volume. Prediction of lithological properties using this framework is helpful for Reservoir Characterization.
G A ] 1 0 Se p 20 09 The Galactic Mergers and Gravitational Unbound Populations

Motivated by the observations on the intra-cluster light (ICL) and intergalactic stellar populations, n-body simulations are used to model the galactic merging events as a goal to investigate the production and distribution of gravitational unbound populations (GUPs). Both the parabolic and hyperbolic mergers are considered and each category includes six models with different relative orientations between two galaxies. Our results show that there are more (about a factor of two) GUP after a hyperbolic merging event than after a parabolic one. In general, depending on the relative orientation and also the relative velocity of the two galaxies in a merging pair, a head-on collision of a galaxy pair would only make a tiny fraction (less than one percent) of the initial stellar mass become luminous GUP but a considerable fraction (eight to fourteen percent) of the dark matter become dark GUP.
The Trend of Tramadol Vending in Retail Pharmacies and Negative Impact of Abusing Drug on its Purchasers in Mosul City, Iraq

Since 1998 tramadol was introduced to the Iraqi markets as a nonscheduled centrally acting analgesic with low abuse potential. Many patients (or customers on their behalf) purchased the drug from retail pharmacies without medical prescription which may raise a strong need to investigate the suspicion of potential trmadol abuse among those customers who visited those pharmacies in Mosul which is one of the biggest cities in north Iraq. Methodology: Under the supervision of the pharmacists in ten retail pharmacies (which were selected randomly from different areas in Mosul), a closed-ended questionnaire constructed by the researches and designed to detect the trends of purchasing tramadol from private pharmacies besides the International Neuropsychiatric Intervew version-5(module L), were filled out for every patient or (someone on their behalf) who purchased tramadol from those pharmacies during six months period (June 2012-December 2012). Sociodemographic characters of the purchasers were obtained in this study and subjected to descriptive statistics to make comparison with other studies. Results: Of 163 patients or (someone purchased the drug on their behalf) who seek tramadol from the pharmacies, 84 (51.53%) purchasers did not have prescription. About 98(60.12%) patients reported abuse or addiction criterias on tramadol after interviewing them through M.I. N.I. international neuropsychiatric interview version- 5. Most of the purchasers were males and females below thirty (73.3%, 74.1% consecutively). Participants who were unemployed (83.9%), singles (92.6%) were aging below thirty. Approximately (60%) of the patients reported a history of addiction or drug abuse. Most of the patients with no prescription(46%) had abuse criteria on tramadol. Conclusion: Patients who request tramadol from private pharmacies in Mosul seem to have a high potential for drug abuse, dependence, in particular those who do not have prescriptions. The high prevalence of people under 30 years of age seeking tramadol could be a worldwide trend. Construction of detoxification units is highly recommended in Mosul.
Client-Specific Anomaly Detection for Face Presentation Attack Detection

The one-class anomaly detection approach has previously been found to be effective in face presentation attack detection, especially in an \textit{unseen} attack scenario, where the system is exposed to novel types of attacks. This work follows the same anomaly-based formulation of the problem and analyses the merits of deploying \textit{client-specific} information for face spoofing detection. We propose training one-class client-specific classifiers (both generative and discriminative) using representations obtained from pre-trained deep convolutional neural networks. Next, based on subject-specific score distributions, a distinct threshold is set for each client, which is then used for decision making regarding a test query. Through extensive experiments using different one-class systems, it is shown that the use of client-specific information in a one-class anomaly detection formulation (both in model construction as well as decision threshold tuning) improves the performance significantly. In addition, it is demonstrated that the same set of deep convolutional features used for the recognition purposes is effective for face presentation attack detection in the class-specific one-class anomaly detection paradigm.
