Limitations of Standard Accessible Captioning of Sounds and Music for Deaf and Hard of Hearing People: An EEG Study.

Captioning is the process of transcribing speech and acoustical information into text to help deaf and hard of hearing people accessing to the auditory track of audiovisual media. In addition to the verbal transcription, it includes information such as sound effects, speaker identification, or music tagging. However, it just takes into account a limited spectrum of the whole acoustic information available in the soundtrack, and hence, an important amount of emotional information is lost when attending just to the normative compliant captions.

Morphokinetic analysis and embryonic prediction for blastocyst formation through an integrated time-lapse system.

Objective: To describe the events associated with the blastocyst formation and implantation that occur in embryos during preimplantation development based on the largest sample size ever described with time-lapse monitoring.

Design: Observational, retrospective, single-center clinical study.

Setting: University-affiliated private IVF center.

Introduction: Genitourinary tuberculosis represent 3.2% of the possible sites of the disease. The lack of treatment or an inadecuate one may lead to severe complications.

Do inflammatory markers add predictive information of death beyond that provided by age and comorbidity in chronic renal failure patients?

Background: Elevated levels of inflammatory markers have been shown to be associated with increased mortality in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Comorbid indexes are also helpful clinical instruments for predicting mortality. At present, it is unknown whether inflammatory markers add predictive information of death beyond that provided by comorbid indexes.
