Making sense of technology adoption in healthcare: meso-level considerations
It has been clear for some time that the development of telecare faces significant problems. Large scale studies and clinical trials seem to suggest that the cost and clinical effectiveness of telecare systems is doubtful, and the claim that these systems empower or enable service users often seems greatly overstated. The question that stems from this is, can these problems be overcome? Greenha...
متن کاملA STAB at Making Sense of VAST Data
We view sensemaking in threat analysis as abducing stories that explain the current data and make verifiable predictions about future data. We have developed a preliminary system, called STAB, that abduces multiple stories from the VAST2006 dataset. STAB uses the TMKL knowledge representation language to represent skeletal story plots as plans with goals and states, and to organize the plans in...
متن کاملSampling considerations for garden symphylans (Order: Cephalostigmata) in western Oregon.
Sampling recommendations were developed for a potato bait sampling method used to estimate garden symphylan (Scutigerella immaculata Newport) densities in western Oregon. Sample size requirements were developed using Taylor's power law to describe the relationship between sample means and variances. Developed sampling recommendations performed well at sample sizes of 30 and greater, when valida...
متن کاملRisk Assessment for Arthropod Vectors
THE INTENT OF this section is to provide guidance and to establish a framework for selecting the appropriate arthropod containment level (facilities, equipment, and practices) that reduce risks of release and exposure of laboratory workers and the public to a vector and associated agents. “Risk” implies the probability that harm, injury, or disease will occur among laboratorians or the general ...
متن کاملIdentification of a Flavivirus Sequence in a Marine Arthropod.
Phylogenetic analysis has yet to uncover the early origins of flaviviruses. In this study, I mined a database of expressed sequence tags in order to discover novel flavivirus sequences. Flavivirus sequences were identified in a pool of mRNA extracted from the sea spider Endeis spinosa (Pycnogonida, Pantopoda). Reconstruction of the translated sequences and BLAST analysis matched the sequence to...
