Demographic Data and BMI Associated with Serum Total Cholesterol in Sudanese

Background: Serum total cholesterol is believed to have a role in coronary heart disease, which in turn gets affected by many genetic and environmental factors. A number of studies were conducted to investigate the influence of factors such as age, gender, BMI and ethnicity on the level of serum total cholesterol and other lipoproteins. Objective: The current study aimed to explore the effect of gender, age, BMI, ethnicity on the serum total cholesterol levels in healthy Sudanese population. Methodology: Serum of total cholesterol levels were determined spectrophotometerically in randomly selected 660 (36.4% males and 63.6% females), apparently healthy non-smoker Sudanese, aged 27 to 70 years. Results: Mean serum cholesterol levels were lower in study group when compared with internationally set value (200 mg/ dl), and no statistically significant difference in the level of total cholesterol between males, as well as among different age groups. Comparison of serum total cholesterol according to the BMI also showed no statistically significant differences. Different ethnic groups showed no statistically significant differences in their level of total cholesterol. Conclusions: It is concluded that current life style of Sudanese population that is characterized by high physical activities, low fats diets and exposure to sun light for long periods, maintains the cholesterol levels within the normal healthy levels.

Improved Memory Network for Aspect Sentiment Analysis

In order to explore impact of different memory modules under the framework of deep memory network for aspect level sentiment classification, three kinds of different memory modules are designed. One of them uses CNN to build a memory module, which is capable of capturing local information from original sentence. The other one of them uses BiLSTM to build another memory module, which is capable of capturing sequence information. And the last one of them uses CNN and BiLSTM, which combines both local and sequence information together, to build memory module at the same time. Experiments on laptop and restaurant datasets demonstrate that our three methods achieve better results than MemNet and feature based SVM approach.
Cognitive Biometrics: A Novel Approach to Continuous Person Authentication

Cognitive biometrics is a new authentication scheme that utilises the cognitive, emotional, and conative state of an individual as the basis of user authentication and/or identification. These states of mind (and their derivatives) are extracted by recording various biosignals such as the EEG, ECG, and electrodermal response (EDR) of the individual in response to the presentation of the authentication stimulus. Stimuli are selected which elicit characteristic changes within the acquired biosignal(s) that represent unique responses from the individual. These characteristic changes are processed using a variety of machine learning algorithms, resulting in a unique signature that identifies or authenticates the individual. This approach can be applied in both static mode (single point of authentication), or in continuous mode, either alone, or in a multi-modal approach. The data suggest that the classification accuracy can reach 100% in many scenarios, providing support for the efficacy of this new approach to both static and continuous biometrics.

Utilização do modelo skip-gram para representação distribuída de palavras no projeto Media Cloud Brasil

There is a representation problem when working with natural language processing because once the traditional model of bag-of-words represents the documents and words as single matrix, this one tends to be completely sparse. In order to deal with this problem, there are some methods capable of represent the words using a distributed representation, with a smaller dimension and more compact, including some properties that allow to relate words on the semantic form. The aim of this work is to use a dataset obtained by the Media Cloud Brasil project and apply the skip-gram model to explore relations and search for pattern that helps to understand the content.
Classification of EEG signals for different emotional states

We propose a recognition system by using electroencephalogram (EEG) data for emotion classification. Keeping in mind the growing interest for emotion detection automatically, we are trying to identify the prominent brain waves (i.e. alpha, beta, delta, theta) for particular emotion. For analysis we have used frequency data. EEG data was collected by showing and playing different audio-video stimuli to acquire the proper emotions. Detailed analysis of the dominating signals when exposed to different emotions (happy/sad) was conducted. We made use of standard statistical techniques for feature extraction. It is found that when people are exposed to specific emotion like happiness or sadness, higher frequency signals are more prominently seen as compared to lower frequency signals, in particular regions of the brain. During intense emotional activity, changes were noticed in the alpha signal in occipital and frontal regions of the brain. In case of very intense sad emotion display, Beta signals were also seen over Temporal and Frontal regions. For classification of data we have used Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). The classification rate in case of sad emotions is 84.37%, for happiness it is 78.12% and for relaxed state it is found to be 92.70%.

Multi-user detection for DS-CDMA communications

Direct-sequence code-division multiple access (DS-CDMA) is a popular wireless technology. In DS-CDMA communications, all of the users' signals overlap in time and frequency and cause mutual interference. The conventional DS-CDMA detector follows a single-user detection strategy in which each user is detected separately without regard for the other users. A better strategy is multi-user detection, where information about multiple users is used to improve detection of each individual user. This article describes a number of important multiuser DS-CDMA detectors that have been proposed.

Influence of Mood on Saccadic Eye Movement Parameters in Different Age Groups

There are many evidences about unique emotions evoked by music in different individuals and that, the saccadic eye movements (saccades) and pupil size are sensitive to different emotions. The experiment presented in this article concerns both issues, as we investigated possible changes in parameters of saccades, caused by emotions induced by music listening. It was assumed, that found correlations will help to determine subject’s age and mood dependently on recorded saccade parameters. The purpose of this experiment was to find ability to distinguish and classify saccade parameters to one of defined groups of age (young/old) or mood (energetic/relaxed) induced by music.

The Changing Clinical Presentation of Celiac Disease

The incidence, the age at presentation and the features of celiac disease (CD) in children have changed considerably over the past 20 years. CD is now believed to be the most common genetically predetermined condition in humans with a prevalence of 1%. Only approximately one third of the patients presents with diarrhea while one third is diagnosed upon screening, and one fifth presents with nonspecific recurrent abdominal pain. Furthermore, it is apparent that most children with CD remain undiagnosed. Another trend is the presentation later in life with atypical symptoms such as anemia, bone disorder and growth failure. The increasing number of CD-associated autoimmune disorders, like insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, dermatitis herpetiformis, alopecia, Sjogren’s syndrome, autoimmune thyroiditis, autoimmune hepatitis, and atrophic gastritis, is apparent. Currently most patients present with subtle or non-gastrointestinal manifestations at a later age. Median age at presentation of children has shifted from 4 to 8 years.

Hubungan antara Status Gizi Awal dengan Status Pulang dan Lama Rawat Inap Pasien Dewasa di Rumah Sakit

Background: Hospital malnutrition is reported to be prevalent in Indonesia. Wether nutritional status at admission is associated with nutritional status at discharge and length of stay remains unclear. Objective: To assess the association between nutritional status at the admission and nutritional status at discharge and length of stay in adult hospitalized patients. Methods: A total subjects of 293 adult patients who were admitted to internal and neurology departments of Dr. Sardjito, Dr.M. Jamil, and Sanglah hospitals were included in this study. Nutritional status of each patient was assessed using Body Mass Index (BMI) measured at admission and on discharge. Information on length of stay and hospital charge was collected based on medical records. Results: Low energy intake was associated with worse outcome (OR 1,2 95%CI 1,74-11,94). Non infection diseases were also found to be associated with worse outcome (OR 6,91 95%CI 4,03-11,85) and length of stay (OR 1,83 95%CI 1,10-3,05). Prehospitalized and class of hospitalized were associated with length of stay (OR 2,34 95%CI 1,36-8,57). Conclusion: Low nutritional status on admission and low energy intake were associated with higher risk of worse outcome (OR 2,34 95%CI 1,05-5,24) and (OR 3,41 95%CI 1,36-8,57).
Combining Contexts and Hyperlinks for Named Entity Disambiguation Based On Knowledge Base

Name ambiguity is one of the most common problems in natural language processing and has raised an urgent demand for efficient, high-quality named entity disambiguation methods. In recent years, with the emergency of knowledge base such as Wikipedia, there are large amount of method proposed based on knowledge base. Named Entity Disambiguation (NED) refers to the task of resolving multiple named entity mentions in a document to their correct references in a knowledge base. The main difficulty in NED is ambiguity in the meaning of entity mentions. In this paper, we combine local context and global hyperlink structure from Wikipedia to compensate for the limitations of only using one of the methods. The experimental results show that the two models of context, namely, words in the context and hyperlink pathways to other entities in the context, are complementary. Results are not tuned to any of the datasets, showing that it is robust to out-of-domain scenarios, and that further improvements are possible.

High performance automatic gain control circuit using a S/H peak-detector for ASK receiver

A high performance automatic gain control (AGC) circuit is proposed in this paper. The proposed AGC incorporates a modified sample and hold peak-detector. Circuit operation of this new peak-detector demonstrates superior performance to the conventional one, by keeping and tracking the peak of the input signal at the same time. In addition, the design complexity of the proposed AGC is reduced in both the low pass filter and the demodulator due to the modified peak-detector. Based on simulation results, the complete AGC loop shows very satisfactory circuit operation. Therefore, it is suitable for high performance communication applications such as ASK (amplitude shift keyed) receivers.

Argumentative analysis of the ACL Anthology (Analyse argumentative du corpus de l'ACL (ACL Anthology)) [in French]

This paper presents an application of Text Zoning to the ACL Anthology. Text Zoning is known to be useful to characterize the content of papers, especially in the scientific domain. We show that recent techniques based on weakly supervised learning obtain excellent results on the ACL Anthology. Although these kinds of techniques is known in the domain, it is the first time it is applied to the whole ACL Anthology. Mots-cles : Analyse argumentative, corpus de textes scientifiques, ACL Anthology.
Improvement of Seed Selection Strategy for Graybox Fuzzing

According to AFL(American fuzzy lop) author, the famous hacker Michal Zalewski (lcamtuf)said that most of the current bugs were found by the fuzzing, rather than symbolic execution and other technical analysis based on the discovery of the program. The reason is that fuzzing is faster (no analysis program is needed, no need to constrain), and more extensible (the effect of path explosion is smaller). At present, the commonly used fuzzing tool AFL is a security-oriented fuzzing device, which uses a new compile-time instruments and genetic algorithms to automatically find clear and interesting test cases, triggering the target binary file in the new internal state. In the process of using AFL, we found that its genetic algorithm can not guide the direction of fuzzing. Through the design to control the number of variation of each fuzzing seed, to guide it to the low frequency path direction variation, could get a better fuzzing effect. In the same time, the improved AFL was 3 times faster than the old AFL.
Mangifera indica Extract (Vimang) Restored the Redox Balance in Type-1 Diabetic Patients

In diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis is early, rapid, and widespread, affecting the dyslipoproteinemia secondary to hyperglycemia, lipoproteins glycosylation produced changes, making them more atherogenic and generate free radicals that cause apoprotein oxidation of lipids and macromolecules nearby, we decided to evaluated the presence of oxidative stress in children with Diabetes mellitus type-1 and demonstrated the need for antioxidants as part of drug therapy of this disease. Thirty ambulatory patients of Endocrinology were selected between 6 to 12 years of age, who had been suffering from Diabetes mellitus type-I since 3 years ago. Under their informed consent of the selected group the seric levels of antioxidant was tested: uric acid, vitamin C, bilirrubin, ceruloplasmin, albumin and cholesterol, LDL- cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, oxidized LDL, Vimang tablets (300 mg/24 h) was supplied for three month, and the same tests were repeated every month. Data was processed by means of descriptive statistics methods, with of absolute and relative frequency distribution, performing a hypothesis test for paired observations.
