An Automated Method to Enrich Consumer Health Vocabularies Using GloVe Word Embeddings and An Auxiliary Lexical Resource [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Background: Clear language makes communication easier between any two parties. A layman may have difficulty communicating with a professional due to not understanding the specialized terms common to the domain. In healthcare, it is rare to find a layman knowledgeable in medical terminology which can lead to poor understanding of their condition and/or ...

Standard operating procedures (SOP) in experimental stroke research: SOP for middle cerebral artery occlusion in the mouse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Recently, systematic reviews have found quantitative evidence that low study quality may have introduced a bias into preclinical stroke research. Monitoring, auditing, and standard operating procedures (SOPs) are already key elements of quality control ...

WOVe: Incorporating Word Order in GloVe Word Embeddings [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Word vector representations open up new opportunities to extract useful information from unstructured text. Defining a word as a vector made it easy for the machine learning algorithms to understand a text and extract information from. Word vector representations have been used in many applications such word synonyms, word analogy, syntactic parsing ...

Using a quantitative assessment of propulsion biomechanics in wheelchair racing to guide the design of personalized gloves: a case study [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
This study with a T-52 class wheelchair racing athlete aimed to combine quantitative biomechanical measurements to the athlete's perception to design and test different prototypes of a new kind of rigid gloves. Three personalized rigid gloves with various, fixed wrist extension angles were prototyped and tested on a treadmill in a biomechanics ...

Mechanochemical Synthesis and Characterization of Nanostructured ErB4 and NdB4 Rare‐Earth Tetraborides

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 6, March 2025.
ErB4 and NdB4 nanostructured powders are produced by mechanochemical synthesis. 5 h mechanical alloying and 4 M HCl acid leaching are used in the production. ErB4 and NdB4 powders exhibit maximum magnetization of 0.4726 emu g−1 accompanied with an antiferromagnetic‐to‐paramagnetic phase transition at about TN = 18 K and 0.132 emu g−1 with a maximum at ...

Chlorhexidine-coated surgical gloves influence the bacterial flora of hands over a period of 3 hours

open access: yesAntimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2018
Background The risk of SSI increases in the presence of foreign materials and may be caused by organisms with low pathogenicity, such as skin flora derived from hands of surgical team members in the event of a glove breach.
