OwlEd: An Ontology Manager for MaMaS-tng
No full textOwlEd is a novel ontology manager originally designed for simple and effective interaction with non-standard services available in MaMaS-tng, including Concept Abduction, Concept Contraction, Semantic ranking, Concept Covering, and Match type detection. Such services have been devised to cope with all scenarios where an approximate semantic match is needed. OwlEd is nevertheless a complete ontology manager, natively built on OWL. It is endowed of all standard features of an ontology manager, such as creating, editing and verifying ontologies and to perform standard TELL and ASK operations. It works with any DIG1.1 compliant reasoning engine, although non-standard inferences are only supported for MaMaS-tng. OwlEd exposes a fully graphical interface, allows one to build nested class expressions that can be managed via drag and drop. Exploiting non standard inferences, semantic matchmaking processes are easily managed and interactive ontology debugging is also supported. We present here the tool and its main functionalities when used in conjunction with MaMaS-tng
Eulogie de Saint Mamas (Pl. 51)
No full textΜη διαθέσιμη περίληψηNo abstract (available). L’Eulogie de Saint Mamas, don du directeur des Musées de France, M. H. Seyrig, au Musée Byzantin ( No 3016 ) est un disque en plomb ( diam. 0,055 m · )· Sur l'envers du disque est représenté en relief Saint Mamas assis sur un lion ; au contour il y a l'inscription gravée : « Eulogie du grand martyr Saint Marnas » ; sur l'envers une croix en relief aussi. Cette Eulogie est un de petits objets en métal ou en terre cuite que l'on distribuait aux pèlerins des Martyria célèbres à l'époque paléochrétienne. C'est une pièce unique et date du 6ème s. Son intérêt consiste surtout en ce qu'elle nous apprend que le type de Saint Mamas assis sur un lion, que l'on considérait comme une création plutôt post - byzantine avec influence italienne, est très ancien
Allele-Specific MAMAs Based Upon Agarose Sizing.
No full text<p>Allele-specific SNP MAMAs from two pathogen species were transferred from a real-time PCR instrument (A & C; Melt-MAMA) to conventional PCR coupled with agarose gel electrophoresis (B & D; Agarose-MAMA) under identical assay conditions. Genotypes from Melt-MAMAs are determined by temperature-dissociation (melt) curves, whereas genotypes from Agarose-MAMAs are determined by the amplicon size differences.</p

Effect of Location on Treatment and Outcomes of Cardiac Arrest Complicating Acute Myocardial Infarction in England & Wales
No full textWe investigated the incidence, management, and outcomes of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients according to cardiac arrest location. Patients admitted with a diagnosis of AMI between January 1, 2010 to March 31, 2017 from the Myocardial Ischaemia National Audit Project (MINAP) were studied. We used logistic regression models to evaluate predictors of the clinical outcomes and treatment strategy. The study population consisted of 580,796 patients admitted with AMI stratified into three groups: out of hospital cardiac arrest (OOHCA) (16,278[2.8%]), in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) (21,073[3.7%]), plus a reference group consisting of those without cardiac arrest (non-cardiac arrest (543,418[93.5%]). IHCA declined steadily (from 666 per 1000 in 2010 to 477 per 1000 AMI with cardiac arrest admissions in 2017) with a commensurate rise in OOHCA (from 344 per 1000 to 533 per 1000 AMI with cardiac arrest admissions). Coronary angiography utilization (OOHCA 81.1% vs IHCA 60.3% vs non-cardiac arrest 70.4%, p < 0.001) and PCI (OOHCA 40% vs IHCA 32.8% vs non-cardiac arrest 45.2%, p < 0.001) were higher in OOHCA. In-hospital mortality odds were greatest for IHCA (OR 35.3, 95% CI 33.4-37.2) compared to OOHCA (OR 12.7, 95% CI 11.9-13.6), with the worse outcomes seen in patients on medical wards (OR 97.37, 95% CI 87.02-108.95) and the best outcomes seen in the emergency department (OR 8.35, 95% CI 7.32-9.53). In conclusion, outcomes of AMI complicated by cardiac arrest depended on cardiac arrest location, especially the outcomes of the IHCA.</p
In-Hospital and 30-Day Mortality After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in England in the Pre-COVID and COVID Eras
No full textBackground: Public reporting of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) outcomes is a performance metric and a requirement in many healthcare systems. There are inconsistent data on the causes of death after PCI, and the proportion of these deaths that are attributable to cardiac causes. Methods: All patients undergoing PCI in England between January 1, 2017 and May 10, 2020 (n = 273,141) were retrospectively analyzed according to their outcome from the date of PCI: no death, in-hospital death, postdischarge death, and total 30-day death. The present study examined short-term primary causes of death after PCI in a national cohort before and during COVID-19. Results: The overall rates of in-hospital and 30-day death were 1.9% and 2.8%, respectively. The rate of 30-day death declined between 2017 (2.9%) and February 2020 (2.5%), mainly due to lower in-hospital death (2.1% vs 1.5%), before rising again from March 1, 2020 (3.2%) due to higher rates of postdischarge mortality. Only 59.6% of 30-day deaths were due to cardiac causes, with the most common causes being acute coronary syndrome, cardiogenic shock, and heart failure, and this persisted throughout the study period. In the 30-day death group, 10.4% after March 1, 2020 were due to confirmed COVID-19. Conclusions: In this nationwide study, we show that 40% of 30-day deaths are due to non-cardiac causes. Non-cardiac deaths have increased even more from the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, with 1 in 10 deaths from March 2020 being COVID-19 related. These findings raise a question of whether public reporting of PCI outcomes should be cause specific

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
