OpenSDE: a strategy for expressive and flexible structured data entry.

Int J Med Inform

Department of Medical Informatics, Ee2157, Erasmus MC, University Medical Center Rotterdam, P.O. Box 1738, 3000 DR Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

Published: July 2005

Purpose: This description focuses on the expressiveness and flexibility of OpenSDE: an application that supports recording of structured narrative data.

Methods: OpenSDE enables data entry with (customizable) forms based on trees of medical concepts. The relevant scope for data entry can be tailored per medical domain by construction of a domain-specific tree. OpenSDE is intended for structuring narrative data to make these available for both care and research.

Results: The OpenSDE application is currently in use at several departments in our academic hospital, including radiology, neurology, pediatrics, and child psychiatry. OpenSDE is available for all in open source.

Hippocampal dendritic spines store-operated calcium entry and endoplasmic reticulum content is dynamic microtubule dependent.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Laboratory of Biomedical Imaging and Data Analysis, Institute of Biomedical Systems and Biotechnology, Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, Khlopina St. 11, St. Petersburg, Russia, 194021.

One of the mechanisms of calcium signalling in neurons is store-operated calcium entry (SOCE), which is activated when the calcium concentration in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER) decreases and its protein-calcium sensor STIM (stromal interacting molecule) relocate to the endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane junctions, forms clusters and induces calcium entry. In electrically non-excitable cells, STIM1 is coupled with the positive end of a tubulin microtubule through interaction with EB1 (end-binding) protein, which controls its oligomerization, SOCE and participates in ER movement. STIM2 homologue, which is specific for mature hippocampal dendritic spines, is known to interact with EB3 protein, however, not much is known about the role of this interaction in STIM2 clustering or ER trafficking in neurons.

The comprehensive adoption of Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) offers numerous benefits but also introduces risks of privacy leakage, particularly for patients with Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) who need protection from social secondary harm. Despite advancements in privacy protection research, the effectiveness of these strategies in real-world data remains debatable. The objective is to develop effective information extraction and privacy protection strategies to safeguard STI patients in the Chinese healthcare environment and prevent unnecessary privacy leakage during the data-sharing process of EMRs.

Semantic alignment: A measure to quantify the degree of semantic equivalence for English-Chinese translation equivalents based on distributional semantics.

Behav Res Methods

January 2025

Department of Chinese Language and Literature, College of Humanities, Southwest Jiaotong University, No. 999, Xi'an Road, Pidu District, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, 611756, The People's Republic of China.

The degree of semantic equivalence of translation pairs is typically measured by asking bilinguals to rate the semantic similarity of them or comparing the number and meaning of dictionary entries. Such measures are subjective, labor-intensive, and unable to capture the fine-grained variation in the degree of semantic equivalence. Thompson et al.

A mixed method approach to substantiate quantitative data with qualitative data: Improving clinical judgment in prelicensure nursing students using simulation.

Nurse Educ Today

January 2025

University of Washington, United States; Capella University, United States; Bellevue College, United States; Marymount University, Arlington, VA, United States; University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, United States. Electronic address:

Background: Current literature demonstrates a gap in research involving mixed method study of clinical judgment development in prelicensure nursing students.

Objectives: Clinical judgment of two groups of nursing students were compared using the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric (LCJR).

Design: A mixed method convergent parallel quasi-experimental cross-sectional approach was used to determine if simulation increased clinical judgment skills between beginner and advanced pre-licensure nursing students.

Aim: Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are increasingly used in palliative care to evaluate patients' symptoms and conditions. Healthcare providers often collect PROMs through conversations. However, the manual entry of these data into electronic medical records can be burdensome for healthcare providers.
