Classifier Chains for LOINC Transcoding.

Purpose: Mapping clinical observations and medical test results into the standardized vocabulary LOINC is a prerequisite for exchanging clinical data between health information systems and ensuring efficient interoperability.

Methods: We present a comparison of three approaches for LOINC transcoding applied to French data collected from real-world settings. These approaches include both a state-of-the-art language model approach and a classifier chains approach.

[Evolution of third-generation cephalosporin resistance in Enterobacteriaceae from 2000 to 2008 in a Perpignan hospital].

The aim of this work was to evaluate the evolution of Enterobacteriaceae resistance to third generation cephalosporin (3CG) from 2000 to 2008 at Perpignan hospital. Were observed: the percentage of strains isolated from short stay wards, intensive care unit and medium and long-term care facility. The percentage of strains isolated from: urine, suppuration, tracheal aspiration, and blood have been evaluated.

Treatment results with light wires studied by panoramic radiography.

The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate "parallelism" and the incidence of root resorption in fifty-three extraction cases treated with light continuous wire therapy, following the principles of minimum force application, minimum tooth movement, avoiding the outward displacement of the roots from the apical bases, and a minimum time of active treatment. Differential tooth movement was performed and active displacement of the full complement of teeth was avoided when possible, according to the needs of the particular case. Panoramic radiographs were taken before and after active treatment and 1 year out of retention.
