This article unwraps the nature and source of human errors involved in Radiology, revealing unique elements of the specialty that warrant special consideration in medical malpractice cases. The authors compare these errors to negligent practices in other professions and conclude that a general concept of negligence cannot adequately address the complexities of decision-making in Radiology. Afte...

We introduce a language resource for Spanish, DysList, composed of a list of unique errors extracted from a collection of texts written by people with dyslexia. Each of the errors was annotated with a set of characteristics as well as visual and phonetic features. To the best of our knowledge this is the largest resource of this kind, especially given the difficulty of finding texts written by ...

Let T be a local strongly pseudocontractive and uniformly continuous operator from an arbitrary Banach space X into itself. Under certain conditions, we establish that the Noor iteration scheme with errors both converges strongly to a unique fixed point of T and is almost T -stable. The related results deal with the convergence and almost stability of the Noor iteration scheme with errors of so...

Fossilization has become the focus of many L2 studies since its introduction in 1972 as many learners fail to achieve native-speaker competence. Researchers have tried to unravel the causes of fossilization, among which noticing has been claimed to be of great importance. This  study  aimed  to  explore  the  effect  of  noticing  on  fossilization.  To  achieve  this  aim,  a mixed-methods app...

original article   introduction: human errors are of the most important issues due to the technological advances in various work settings. in medical professions, including nursing, investigation of human errors would help to find out approaches for the identification and reduction of these errors. hence, the present study aimed to identify and assess nurses' errors in emergency ward of an educ...

conclusions however, performances of dyslexic group and reading level matched group were different and inconsistent in some cases. results this study found similar spelling error profiles among the dyslexic students and the reading-level-matched group, and these profiles were different from those of the age-matched group. however, the performances of the dyslexic group and the reading-level-mat...

purpose: to evaluate residual refractive errors after cataract surgery and its determinant factors at farabi eye hospital, tehran. methods: simple random sampling was done among cataract surgery scheduled patients over a 4 year period (2003-2006). exclusion criteria were uveitis, previous intraocular surgery and ocular trauma. after applying the exclusion criteria, 423 patients were studied. le...

We show some stability and convergence theorems of the modified Ishikawa iterative sequence with errors for a strongly successively pseudocontractive and strictly asymptotically pseudocontractive mapping in a real Banach space. Additionally, we prove that if T is a uniformly Lipschitzian strongly accretive mapping, the modified Ishikawa iteration sequence with errors converges strongly to the u...

The task of linking together information from one or more data sources representing the same entity (patient, customer, business, gene sequence, etc.) If no unique identifier is available, probabilistic linkage techniques have to be applied Real world data is often dirty Missing values Typographical and other errors Different coding schemes / formats Out-of-date data Names and addresses are esp...
