The outpatient clinic of special study group on AIDS (POKDISUS) FKUI/RSCM provides health service for most of patients with HIV infection/AIDS in Jakarta. According to information center currently there are approximately 1800 cases and most of them (67%) are intravenous drug users. The study to obtain the profile of opportunistic infection in hospital had been initiated by Aida et al (1999). Th...

289 Dear Editor: In a recent issue of the journal, Dr. Biermann1 raised various issues regarding the randomised controlled trial (RCT) assessment of diabetes simulation programs. As the results of a pilot RCT have recently been published,2 making use of our proposed protocol,3,4 we thought it might be helpful to overview here the key study findings. AIDA is a freeware computer program that perm...

This column reports a detailed, questionnaire-based, post-release feedback survey of 200 users of the AIDA version 4 educational diabetes simulator. AIDA is a freeware computer program that permits the interactive simulation of plasma insulin and blood glucose profiles for educational, demonstration, self-learning, and research purposes. Since its Internet launch in 1996 over 700,000 visits hav...

BACKGROUND The construct "identity" was discussed to be integrated as an important criterion for diagnosing personality disorders in DSM-5. According to Kernberg, identity diffusion is one of the relevant underlying structures in terms of personality organization for developing psychopathology, especially borderline personality disorder.

We report, the surface presentation of organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH) and green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusions by employing the adhesin-involved-in-diffuse-adherence (AIDA-I) translocator domain as a transporter and anchoring motif. The surface location of the OPH-GFP fusion protein was confirmed by immunofluorescence microscopy, and protease accessibility, followed by Western blotting ana...

As part of a maintenance cost reduction policy, the Royal Netherlands Navy RNLN recently funded the development, acquisition, certification and the fleetwide installation of a unique multi-channel on-board dataacquisition system for its Lynx helicopter, called AIDA (Automatic Inflight Data Acquisition). This 17-channel AIDA-system will generate valuable RNLN Lynx usage and loads data on main ro...

Many unsupervised anomaly detection algorithms rely on the concept of nearest neighbours to compute scores. Such are popular because there no assumptions about data, making them a robust choice for unstructured datasets. However, number (k) neighbours, which critically affects model performance, cannot be tuned in an setting. Hence, we propose new and parameter-free Analytic Isolation Distance-...
