A comprehensive dataset for Arabic word sense disambiguation.

This data paper introduces a comprehensive dataset tailored for word sense disambiguation tasks, explicitly focusing on a hundred polysemous words frequently employed in Modern Standard Arabic. The dataset encompasses a diverse set of senses for each word, ranging from 3 to 8, resulting in 367 unique senses. Each word sense is accompanied by contextual sentences comprising ten sentence examples that feature the polysemous word in various contexts.

Dataset of Arabic spam and ham tweets.

This data article provides a dataset of 132421 posts and their corresponding information collected from Twitter social media. The data has two classes, ham or spam, where ham indicates non-spam clean tweets. The main target of this dataset is to study a way to classify whether a post is a spam or not automatically.

The rising trend of Metaverse in education: challenges, opportunities, and ethical considerations.

Metaverse is invading the educational sector and will change human-computer interaction techniques. Prominent technology executives are developing novel ways to turn the Metaverse into a learning environment, considering the rapid growth of technology. Since the COVID-19 outbreak, people have grown accustomed to teleworking, telemedicine, and numerous other forms of distance interaction.

A systematic review on machine learning models for online learning and examination systems.

Examinations or assessments play a vital role in every student's life; they determine their future and career paths. The COVID pandemic has left adverse impacts in all areas, including the academic field. The regularized classroom learning and face-to-face real-time examinations were not feasible to avoid widespread infection and ensure safety.

A systematic literature review on spam content detection and classification.

The presence of spam content in social media is tremendously increasing, and therefore the detection of spam has become vital. The spam contents increase as people extensively use social media, ., Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and E-mail.

Severe cardiac failure due to rapidly progressive rheumatoid arthritis-associated valvulopathy.

Cardiac failure due to rapidly progressive valve disease is a rare complication of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) that can be challenging to manage. A patient with severe heart failure secondary to RA who, after failing to respond to medical therapy, underwent high-risk valve surgery and did remarkably well, with dramatic symptomatic improvement and essentially normalised left ventricular size and function as seen on follow-up echocardiography.

Variable presentation of ventricular tachycardia-like electrocardiographic artifacts.

Diagnosis of clinically significant ventricular tachycardia (VT) relies on accurate electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation, in the context of a convincing clinical picture. ECG artifacts resembling VT are common and can be misleading. We present two instances of VT-like ECG artifacts, which demonstrate the variable presentation of such artifacts and highlight ways in which these ECG tracings can be distinguished from true VT.

Ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI): An update for practitioners.

Peripheral vascular disease affects some 12%-14% of the general population, and the majority of people with the disease are asymptomatic. The ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI) test is widely used by a diverse range of practitioners (in the community and hospital setting) in order to screen asymptomatic patients, diagnose patients with clinical symptoms, and to monitor patients who have had radiological or surgical intervention. This paper explains the theoretical basis of the ABPI test, as well as the relevance of the common modifications of the test.

Haemodynamic significance of an anomalous right coronary with inter-arterial course assessed with intracoronary pressure measurements during dobutamine challenge.

Autopsy studies have associated congenital coronary anomalies with the risk of sudden cardiac death. However, not all patients with anomalous coronary arteries die suddenly. A means of assessing the potential for ischaemia and thus predicting the risk of sudden death in these patients may be necessary for directing treatment.

Are there age and sex differences in the investigation and treatment of heart failure? A population-based study.

Background: Heart failure is a serious, common, and growing problem. Hospital admissions, which account for the bulk of health service costs associated with heart failure, are becoming more frequent.

Aim: To determine whether management of heart failure differs by age and sex.

Usefulness of tilt test-induced patterns of heart rate and blood pressure using a two-stage protocol with glyceryl trinitrate provocation in patients with syncope of unknown origin.

This study assesses the vasovagal collapse pattern changes, i.e, heart rate (HR) and arterial blood pressure (BP) with a 2-stage tilt-test protocol using glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) provocation. With use of the 45-minute 60 degrees head-up Westminster protocol, 102 consecutive patients were studied.

Mitochondrial DNA in idiopathic cardiomyopathy.

Aims: To investigate the frequency of pathogenic mitochondrial DNA mutations in idiopathic cardiomyopathy.

Methods And Results: We investigated the occurrence of seven previously reported pathogenic mitochondrial DNA point mutations in 52 patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (blood n=33, myocardium n=19), 10 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (blood n=7, myocardium n=3), 67 controls with ischaemic heart disease (blood n=53, myocardium n=14) and eight controls with no overt cardiac disease (blood n=4, myocardium n=4). Total DNA or cell lysates were studied by polymerase chain reaction amplification and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis for the identification of the following mitochondrial DNA point mutations: A3243G, A3252G, A3260G, A4269G, A8344G, T8993G/C and T9997C.

Endothelin-1 in rat endotoxemia: mRNA expression and vasoreactivity in pulmonary and systemic circulations.

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a vasoconstrictor and proinflammatory peptide, but its role in the vascular response to sepsis is unknown. After intraperitoneal injection of male Wistar rats (300 g) with 20 mg/kg of Salmonella enteritidis lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the expression of ET-1 mRNA was significantly increased in pulmonary artery and aorta within 1 h and arterial ET-1 concentration was elevated. Despite this increase in ET-1 production, there was no difference in baseline systemic or pulmonary arterial pressures between control and endotoxin-treated rats, and, furthermore, combined ETA/ETB receptor antagonism using bosentan produced reductions in systemic and pulmonary arterial pressures that were not greater than the modest fall seen in controls.

Objective assessment of the response to treatment of severe heart failure using a 9-minute walk test on a patient-powered treadmill.

Background: No previous studies have demonstrated the changes in exercise capacity that occur during treatment of decompensated severe heart failure. The authors assessed the efficacy and safety of using a patient-powered treadmill to objectively measure exercise capacity and its relationships, if any, to symptom scores and body weight.

Methods And Results: Changes in time-limited exercise capacity on a patient-powered treadmill were assessed during inpatient treatment of 12 patients with decompensated chronic heart failure (New York Heart Association classes III and IV).
