Can you Trust your Data?
A new program analysis is presented, and two compile time methods for this analysis are given. The analysis attempts to answer the question: “Given some trustworthy and some untrustworthy input, can we trust the value of a given variable after execution of some code”. The analyses are based on an abstract interpretation framework and a constraint generation framework respectively. The analyses ...
متن کاملReproducibility of Manual Platelet Estimation Following Automated Low Platelet Counts.
OBJECTIVES Manual platelet estimation is one of the methods used when automated platelet estimates are very low. However, the reproducibility of manual platelet estimation has not been adequately studied. We sought to assess the reproducibility of manual platelet estimation following automated low platelet counts and to evaluate the impact of the level of experience of the person counting on th...
متن کاملPlatelet function testing
Blood platelets contribute to normal haemostasis in two main ways. They adhere to subendothelial microfibrils and collagen in the blood vessel wall, after which they change shape, undergo a specific release reaction, and aggregate with each other to form a primary haemostatic plug. As a consequence of these events, particularly during release and aggregation, procoagulant activities are generat...
متن کاملWhen Can Finite Testing Ensure Infinite Trustworthiness?
In this paper we contribute to the general philosophical question as to whether empirical testing can ever prove a physical law. Problems that lead to this question arise under several contexts, and the matter has been addressed by the likes of Bayes and Laplace. After pointing out that a Bayesian approach is the proper way to address this problem, we show that the answ...
متن کاملValue of Platelet Function Testing in Monitoring Platelet Substitution
The availability of platelet concentrates has made a major contribution to modern clinical practice. In general, the substitution of platelets is the therapy of choice for preventing or treating bleeding episodes in patients with impaired platelet production and/or function. However, this treatment might be associated with risks and drawbacks, which include alloimmunization, transmission of bac...
