Meaningful cut-off pain intensity for breakthrough pain changes in advanced cancer patients.
OBJECTIVES To assess the level of pain intensity at which patients feel the impetus to ask for a breakthrough cancer pain (BTcP) medication, and level of pain intensity at which patients consider they have achieved acceptable pain control after receiving a BTcP medication. METHODS A consecutive sample of patients who were receiving oral morphine equivalents equal to or more than 60 mg daily, ...
متن کاملAre Names Meaningful? Quantifying Social Meaning on the Semantic Web
According to its model-theoretic semantics, Semantic Web IRIs are individual constants or predicate letters whose names are chosen arbitrarily and carry no formal meaning. At the same time it is a well-known aspect of Semantic Web pragmatics that IRIs are often constructed mnemonically, in order to be meaningful to a human interpreter. The latter has traditionally been termed ‘social meaning’, ...
متن کاملQuantifying isocenter measurements to establish clinically meaningful thresholds
A dataset range of isocenter congruency verification tests have been examined from a statistical perspective for the purpose of establishing tolerance levels that are meaningful, based on the fundamental limitation of linear accelerator isocentricity and the demands of a high-precision stereotactic radiosurgery program. Using a laser-defined isocenter, a total of 149 individual isocenter congru...
متن کاملQuantifying mammographic changes in temporal HRT sequences
In this paper we introduce a novel method for assessing mammographic (density) changes in sequences of patients on HRT. The temporal sequence of mammograms is represented using the hint representation of interesting tissue and subsequently registered. The % change in hint (non-fatty tissue) in the registered pair is a good approximation of the fibroglandular change in the composition of the bre...
متن کاملQuantifying Changes in Nasal Tip Support.
IMPORTANCE Imparting surgical change to the nasal tip remains one of the most challenging aspects of rhinoplasty. The surgeon must assess the tip preoperatively and execute the necessary maneuvers to impart the desired change. OBJECTIVE To assess nasal tip resistance to compression in a cadaveric model before and after specific rhinoplasty maneuvers using a novel method. DESIGN, SETTING, AN...
