Development of an automated information retrieval system for the identification of antibiotics

The basic points in the development of a specialized computer information search system providing ientification of new antibiotics at early stages of their investigation are described. The system of coding the physico-chemical properties of the agents and the spectra of their antimicrobial activity presenting the substance in the information bank is developed. The task of identification is to find in the reference bank according to some specially organized keys such antibiotics which are identical or close by their properties to the substance being identified. Mini-computer of M-6000 type is used as the technical base of the information search system. Preliminary organization of the bank specified by the coding system markedly reduces the requirements to the computer operative memory.     

A cost-effective system for obtaining comprehensive cardiovascular information on the critically ill patient

A relatively simple and inexpensive data management system is described with which comprehensive physiologic and cardiovascular profiles are produced. The system is comprised of a desk-top programmable calculator interfaced with an acoustic digitizer input, and an X-Y plotter, with alphanumeric printing output capability. Numerical clinical data such as intracardiac pressures and blood gas values are entered into the calculator via the keyboard, and graphical data such as dye-dilution curves or ventricular contours are digitized with a pen stylus on the acoustic tablet. The data are processed in the calculator and the results charted in familiar and readily interpreted bar-graph format on preprinted charts on the X-Y plotter. The entire system is inexpensive and compact enough to be applicable to small- and medium-size community hospitals.     

The formalized functional features of an automated system for managing the public health of an individual region

During 1994-1996 at the Clinic of Cardiovascular and Transplantation Surgery of IKEM 17 patients were operated with acute dissection of the thoracic aorta type A. Based on the applied surgical tactics the patients were retrospectively divided into two groups. The first included 8 patients where surgical reconstruction of the ascending aorta was implemented in the standard way, the second group comprised 9 patients where the method of deep hypothermia and circulatory arrest were used. Three operated patients died, all from the group with deep hypothermia. The cause of death was twice multiorgan failure and once haemorrhage in a female patient with cardiac tamponade before surgery. The authors discuss the advantages and some pitfalls of surgery in deep hypothermia and circulatory arrest and maintain that neurological disorders are most serious. In the conclusion they draw attention to some possible ways how to improve hitherto achieved results. They include e.g. reduction of the time interval between the development of symptoms of dissection and surgery, careful checking of the cooling and heating when using deep hypothermia, as well as better prevention of cerebral embolic attacks.

Accuracy and generalizability of an automated MMPI interpretation system.

Evaluated narrative paragraph types and total reports of a new MMPI clinical interpretation simulation program. Complete documentation of this system and notation of accuracy and frequency of individual statements are provided elsewhere. MMPI interpretations of 1,410 patients who received psychiatric evaluations were judged by the clinicians who saw these patients. 107 paragraphs appeared 7,555 times and were rated inaccurate less than 10% of the time. 91% of these reports received overall favorable ratings. A linear regression analysis of variance of overall narrative ratings with 2 narrative and 4 patient variables suggested that this system has considerable generalizability. Narrative Type * Patient Source and Patient Age * Patient Source interactions are discussed. (18 ref) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)     

The electronic clipboard: an automated system for accurately recording events during a cardiac arrest

An electronic clipboard has been developed which is simple to used and allows for the accurate timing and recording of events during a cardiac arrest. A flowsheet made of translucent 8 1/2 inches by 11 inches paper is clipped to a plastic board. Along the left margin of the flowsheet is a list of common events and therapies which should be recorded during a cardiac arrest (ie, cardiac rhythm, defibrillation, intubation, intravenous (IV) therapy, medications, etc). Across the page next to each category are columns of boxes, illuminated from below automatically by bars of light from the clipboard at one-minute intervals. Comparison of the events recorded during the first 20 minutes of cardiac resuscitatioon in an emergency department in 18 patients using the electronic clipboard method versus 18 randomly selected, matched patients with conventional recording methods demonstrated the superiority of the newer technique. More total events were recorded with the electronic clipboard (P less than 0.005), especially in the following categories: use of cardiopulmonary resuscitation Thumper, cardiac rhythm, defibrillation, sampling of arterial blood gases, IV insertion, and use of medications. The flowsheet is a superb instrument for reconstructing events for scientific analysis, legal documentation, and education.

The organization of automated information systems on occupational diseases and of the hygienic monitoring of working conditions

Creation of automated database "Archive of occupational diseases clinic" is an important task of informational support for occupational pathology centers. Constructing the database, the authors designed an "Accounting chart of patient with occupational disease for diagnostic survey in occupational pathology center" and a "Diagnosis of occupational disease" code book adjusted to X ICD with instruction. Analysis of the information obtained forms a basis for forecasting the course of pathologic process, for justifying a complex of treatment and prophylaxis.     

The evolution of the thought of "Yojo" and its function as a theoretical bases for development of health culture

The purpose of this monograph is to clarify the role of "Yojo" on public health in Japan. Yojo is a traditional concept which has been used for the nourishment of life in Eastern cultures. These thoughts on Yojo were published under the title of Yojoron in ancient China. Yojoron was imported into Japan somewhere from the 7th to 10th centuries. In ancient and medievel Japan, there were few writings about Yojoron. However during the Edo period, Yojoron suddenly flourished. Dominant in Yojoron was diet. Issues such as exercise, mental control, and sexual restraint were also considered in the Bunka, Bunsei, and Tenpo periods (the first half of 19th century). Yojoron included not only matters of physical and mental health but various other matters regarding the general quality of life such as morality, domestic economy, culture and education. However other health-related issues such as longevity and absence of diseases, showed a simultaneous decrease in the importance. Also principles of Yojoron such as restraint and austerity in behaviour were liberalized. These trends indicated the basic shift in Yojoron from personal health care to self-culture for the entire quality of life. Writings on Yojoron were still published after the Meiji restoration (1868). The principle of Yojoron in the Meiji period was based on both social Darwinism and social revolution theories. The primary concerns of Yojoron were consolidated into achieving health and longevity by personal effort. Therefore Yojoron can be seen as the theory of lifestyle and quality of life in traditional societies in Japan. The public saw in Yojoron a design for living through improved health. This meant the Yojoron was a very refined art of living, and therefore, implies that health care should be integrated with entire self-development. The principle of Yojo offers the ideal foundation of 'health culture' in modern societies.

Web technology in automated information and modeling systems for metallurgical processes

The software in information systems used by engineering personnel at metallurgical enterprises is considered. Such software operates automated workstations, support systems for decision making, information and modeling systems, expert systems, and so on. Typically, the software takes the form of desktop applications written in high-level programming languages (Visual C#, Visual Basic, etc.). The analysis of technological information from the enterprise’s database-management server entails the solution of programming problems, systems of differential equations, and mathematical-physics problems, for example. Such problems are unsolvable by the standard general-purpose programming languages. Therefore, the development of information and modeling systems requires access to outside software, such as Microsoft Excel and MATLAB. Interaction with Microsoft Excel depends on COM Interop technology, which requires the installation of Microsoft Office on each client computer. Interaction with MATLAB requires the preliminary assembly of a library in MATLAB Compiler and its connection to the program. MATLAB Runtime freeware must be installed on the client computer. However, desktop applications using Windows Forms do not meet the requirements of industrial information systems in terms of functionality, accessibility, and cross-platform compatibility. Accordingly, new technologies must be found for the creation of information systems. The best approach is the construction of web applications based on the ASP.NET MVC framework, which permits the transfer of mathematical libraries and modules for interaction with Microsoft Excel and MATLAB from Windows Forms, without modification. The structure of the web application employed in the development of information-system software is described. The web page employed has the following functional regions: the logo and title of the current page, the session-status menu, the function menu, group operations, notifications, and the working area.     

Accuracy and generalizability of an automated MMPI interpretation system: Erratum.

Reports an error in the article entitled "Accuracy and Generalizability of an Automated MMPI Interpretation System," by David Lachar (Journal of Consulting & Clinical Psychology. Vol. 42(2) Apr 1974, 267-273). Three references to tables on p. 270 appeared incorrectly. The sentences should read as follows: In column 1, the last sentence should read: A distribution of the frequency of the 51 code paragraphs is presented in Table 3. The second sentence under the paragraph heading Narrative Accuracy should read: The distribution of these 1,410 ratings appears in Table 4. The first sentence in Paragraph 2 should read: Table 1 presents the levels of the six variables included in the linear regression analysis of variance of overall narrative ratings. (The following abstract originally appeared in record 1974-27670-001). Evaluated narrative paragraph types and total reports of a new MMPI clinical interpretation simulation program.

Developing an integrated information system for specialized addiction treatment agencies

A kinetic study was carried out on the inhibitory effects of acarbose, maltose, and maltotriose on porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase (PPA), using maltopentaose as the substrate. Lineweaver-Burk plots showed that the inhibitory action of acarbose is of the mixed non-competitive type. The secondary plots gave straight lines. A model involving abortive complexes accounts for these results. Dixon plot analysis led to the same conclusion. According to the proposed model, one molecule of acarbose per amylase molecule binds either directly to free enzyme at the active site or to the enzyme-substrate complex at a secondary carbohydrate-binding site, which becomes functional after the substrate has bound to the enzyme molecule at the active site. Kinetic analysis of the inhibition exerted by either the maltose or maltotriose reaction products of maltopentaose hydrolysis were then performed. The inhibitory effect of maltose was found to be of the non-competitive type, while that of maltotriose was competitive. It can therefore be concluded that the first reaction product to be released upon maltopentaose hydrolysis is maltose, and that the second product is maltotriose. This indicates that after hydrolysis of the maltopentaose chain, the reducing side fragment is released first.
