Telepractice is routinely used for provision of diagnostic and rehabilitative hearing services. Validation of procedures including audiometry, video-otoscopy, cochlear implant and hearing aid programming and rehabilitation is reported in the literature. Speech perception testing using telepractice is an audiological procedure that is yet to be validated. The current study has developed an APP that can be used to provide on line assessment of speech perception to evaluate device suitability (hearing aids or cochlear implants) and to monitor progress with devices over time.Can field based chemistry help us to predict protein-DNA binding sites?
Can field based chemistry help us to predict protein-DNA binding sites?Cresset
油
This document discusses using computational methods to predict protein-DNA binding sites by analyzing DNA flexibility and electrostatics. It describes direct and indirect readout of DNA sequences by proteins, and how sequence-dependent flexibility can be recognized through an electric field-based approach. The document proposes using this approach to design small molecule drugs that bind DNA by targeting flexible regions. It outlines analyzing DNA sequences with software, aligning drug candidates to a target peptide, and growing fragments to expand candidates. The goal is to design larger molecules accounting for DNA bending to sufficiently hit multiple binding sites.Issues Related to Gene Therapy Assignment - Virtual High School (VHS) - SBI4U

This document summarizes different adaptive designs that can be used in early phase oncology trials. It discusses modifications that can be made to dose levels, tumor types considered, and early termination of selected arms. Specific adaptive designs covered include model-based dose escalation methods like the N-CRM and mTPI, zone-based designs for combination treatments, methods for stopping early in single-arm trials, basket and umbrella trial designs, and an example of the Keytruda first-time-in-human study. The goal of adaptive designs is to incorporate interim data to modify trial aspects and make trials more efficient.Scan

Clinical data munging involves manipulating raw clinical data to achieve an acceptable final form while respecting principles of clinical research ethics. It is an important process as analysts spend up to 85% of their time on data cleaning and preparation. The document outlines various phases in clinical data munging including screening for issues like missing or erroneous data, diagnosing the true nature of problems, and treating issues through actions like correcting, deleting, or leaving data unchanged. It also discusses specific challenges like dealing with missing values, extreme scores, erroneous dates and other errors, and recommends tools like Stata, R, and SAS that are well suited for clinical data munging.HO-CDI.WH.SHEA

2) Over 4,600 disinfection interventions were performed, with 674 being spore treatments averaging 19 minutes.
3) The C. difficile infection rate during the intervention period was 24.95% lower than the previous year, showing ultraviolet disinfection may be an effective tool for prevention. However, the impact on hospital operations needs consideration as an additional cleaning step.NY Prostate Cancer Conference - A. Pusic - Session 6: Quality of life instrum...

While patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures have not played a major role in cancer care historically, there are efforts underway to change this. Patients want simple and easy to understand quality of life information over time on the issues that matter most to them. Clinicians are skeptical of PRO measures due to concerns about data quality and clinical usefulness. New research focuses on qualitative input from patients to design more meaningful PRO tools. Improved methods and electronic data collection aim to provide rigorous PRO data that clinicians can use to inform care and patient decisions in real time with less burden.ResumeAGBranch01DEC2016

For each initiative, it provides examples of research projects, including one that used computational fluid dynamics to study airflow in exam rooms and another that examined the impact of view duration and content on nurse stress. It advocates conducting field research and simulations on a project to study human behavior, energy performance, and other factors. The goal is to integrate research findings into design to improve individual, organizational and environmental wellbeing while overcoming resistance factors like billability and time.Cadth 2015 e4 lourenco adaptive design april 2015 final

This document describes an approach to generate evidence briefings to transfer knowledge from systematic reviews to software engineering practitioners. It involves selecting relevant systematic reviews, extracting data from them, generating one-page briefings summarizing the reviews' goals and key findings, and evaluating the briefings with practitioners and researchers. Surveys found that practitioners rarely use research papers but positively evaluated the briefings, finding them clear and reliable. Researchers also felt the briefings well covered the main findings of the original reviews. The approach aims to help bridge the gap between software engineering research and practice.12 michelle dalton conul acil

It summarizes several replication studies that attempted to replicate experiments from psychology, economics, and social science journals. The replication rates varied between 33-66% for significant effects in the same direction as the original. Effect sizes were typically smaller in the replications. The document argues that the scientific system, including incentives and norms, contributes to limited replicability.
