Breastfeeding is beneficial for the baby and the mother, but is yet to be successfully practiced by newly delivered women as proposed in the Healthy People 2020 goal. Most breastfeeding education during the prenatal or postpartum period provides adequate information for interested women. However, mothers need individualized client-professional interactions and follow-up after hospital discharge...

Logistic regression may be useful when we are trying to model a categorical dependent variable (DV) as a function of one or more independent variables. This paper reviews the case when the DV has more than two levels, either ordered or not, gives and explains SAS R © code for these methods, and illustrates them with examples.

In this paper, we present a system called ATIC, for generating and using individualized curricula. Each curriculum is based on an extended precedence graph overlay model, which supports conjunctions and disjunctions of concepts. A student model stores a complete information about each student. A curriculum created with ATIC supports adaptive tutoring; that is, ATIC will change the presentation ...

UNLABELLED Clot formation in the circulation is a physiological mechanism preventing bleeding at sites of loss of vascular integrity. Clot formation may also occur intravascularly under pathological conditions, e.g. leading to myocardial infarction, stroke, and critical limb ischaemia. Clot formation involves activation of the coagulation cascade and of platelets eventually leading to an occlus...

Abstract This study presents a new approach to determine the likelihood of asymptomatic carriers SARS-CoV-2 virus by using interaction-based continuous learning and inference individual probability (CLIIP) for contagious ranking. is developed based on an directed graph (IDG), multi-layer bidirectional path tracking searching. The IDG determined appearance timeline spatial data that can adapt ov...

This paper presents a process for creating adaptive, individualized, instructional hypermedia applications. The process (APHID-2) builds on a prototypical system (APHID) that semiautomatically generates customized, instructional hypermedia applications. APHID ensures that good design principles are followed, both for the hypermedia application and for the interface that presents the hypermedia ...

BACKGROUND Patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) have highly idiosyncratic triggers. To fully understand which role this idiosyncrasy plays in the neurobiological mechanisms behind OCD, it is necessary to elucidate the impact of individualization regarding the applied investigation methods. This functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study explores the neural correlates of con...

Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in women worldwide. Its surgical approach has become less and less mutilating in the last decades. However, the overall number of breast reconstructions has significantly increased lately. Nowadays, breast reconstruction should be individualized at its best, first of all taking into consideration not only the oncological aspects of the tumor, n...
