AbstractBackground: Macrosomia is a term applied to newborns with a birth weight of 4000 gr or above. Perinatal mortality and morbidity is increased in fetal macrosomia. Clavicular fracture, injury to brachial plexus, and hypoglycemia are important side effects. Mother’s age, body mass index of mother, weight gain in pregnancy, mother’s height, diabetes, history of macrocosmic delivery, gestati...

Background Many factors contribute to an enhanced risk of infant HIV acquisition, two of which may include failure of a mother to disclose her HIV-positive status to her partner and exclusion of male partners in preventing mother-to-child transmission of HIV (PMTCT) interventions. To justify why HIV programmes need to integrate male partner involvement and partner disclosure, we need to establi...

NEW TREND IN PSYCHOPHARMACOLOGY Modern formulations of psychiatric disorders hypothesize that mother nature goes awry, causing both genetic and epigenetic disease actions. Genetic disease actions are the consequences of naturally inherited risk genes that have an altered sequence of DNA. This altered DNA sequence theoretically leads to the production of altered gene products in neurons, causing...

In this work, we demonstrate an automatic video annotation system which can provide users with the representative keywords for new videos. The system explores the hierarchical concept model and multiple feature model to improve the effectiveness of annotation, which consists of two components: a SVM classifier to ascertain the category; and a multiple feature model to label the keywords. We imp...

This paper introduces the Sensapp platform, a semantic and OGCbased sensor application platform to enable users to register, annotate, search, visualize, and compose OGC-based sensors and services for creating addedvalue services and applications. Functionalities of Sensapp such as sensor registration, sensor data visualization, visual composition and generation of executable service compositio...

This paper aims to investigate the performance of a system consisting of plethysmographic sensors used to measure the human pulse (or heart rate), and ZigBee wireless networks used to collect the data in view of processing and storing. A demo system build around a MICROCHIP development kit (PICDEM Z) is described. Some conclusion derived on the basis of the observations obtained during the impl...

Emotional trauma is transmitted across generations. For example, children witnessing their parent expressing fear to specific sounds or images begin to express fear to those cues. Within normal range, this is adaptive, although pathological fear, such as occurs in posttraumatic stress disorder or specific phobias, is also socially transmitted to children and is thus of clinical concern. Here, u...
