Objectives: Medication safety represents an important challenge in children. There are limited studies on medication errors in pediatric patients visiting emergency departments. To help bridge this gap, we characterized the medication errors detected in these patients, determining their severity, the stages of the medication process in which they occurred, the drugs involved, and the types and causes associated with the errors.

It is based on the codification, of the atomic inter-component interactions, cation/gas and anion/gas, which are used to obtain a pattern of activation in a Kohonen Neural Network (MOLMAP descriptors). A robust predictive model has been obtained with the Random Forest algorithm and used the maximum proximity as a confidence measure of a given chemical system compared to the training set.

In this study, equilibrium concentrations at different temperatures for ionic liquid+water two-phase systems were modeled using a Quantitative-Structure-Property Relationship (QSPR) method. Data on equilibrium concentrations were taken from the ILThermo Ionic Liquids database, curated and used to make models that predict the weight fraction of water in ionic liquid rich phase and ionic liquid in the aqueous phase as two separate properties.
