Desiderata for an authoritative Representation of MeSH in RDF.

AMIA Annu Symp Proc

Published: August 2015

The Semantic Web provides a framework for the integration of resources on the web, which facilitates information integration and interoperability. RDF is the main representation format for Linked Open Data (LOD). However, datasets are not always made available in RDF by their producers and the Semantic Web community has had to convert some of these datasets to RDF in order for these datasets to participate in the LOD cloud. As a result, the LOD cloud sometimes contains outdated, partial and even inaccurate RDF datasets. We review the LOD landscape for one of these resources, MeSH, and analyze the characteristics of six existing representations in order to identify desirable features for an authoritative version, for which we create a prototype. We illustrate the suitability of this prototype on three common use cases. NLM intends to release an authoritative representation of MeSH in RDF (beta version) in the Fall of 2014.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in constant changes to Infection Prevention and Control (IPAC) recommendations, impacting clinician capacity to stay up to date. The COVID-19 IPAC Response and Escalation Framework (IPAC Framework), rarely reported or evaluated was developed to provide scalable IPAC guidance during the pandemic to health care in New South Wales (NSW), Australia.

Methods: Using a thematic analysis approach, a qualitative study using an online, cross-sectional survey comprising 27 questions was sent to 248 key stakeholders.

Rolling bearing is the core component of industrial machines, but it is difficult for common single signal source-based fault diagnosis methods to ensure reliable results since sensor signals are vulnerable to the pollution of background noises and the attenuation of transmitted information. Recently, multi-source information-based fault diagnosis methods have become popular, but the information redundancy between multiple signals is a tough problem that will negatively impact the representational capacity of deep learning algorithms and the precision of fault diagnosis methods. Besides that, the characteristics of various signals are actually different, but this problem was usually omitted by researchers, and it has potential to further improve the diagnosing performance by adaptively adjusting the feature extraction process for every input signal source.

Controversial issues in the .

Phonetica

December 2024

Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics, 4321 University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen S., Denmark.

The introductory text in the is an instruction manual, not an authoritative textbook in phonetics/phonology. That does not, however, exempt it from an obligation to be explicit and unambiguous. In that respect, the account of the distinction between phonetic and phonemic representations leaves something to be desired.

Objectives: To enhance and evaluate the quality of PubMed search results for Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) through the addition of new SDoH terms to Medical Subject Headings (MeSH).

Materials And Methods: High priority SDoH terms and definitions were collated from authoritative sources, curated based on publication frequencies, and refined by subject matter experts. Descriptive analyses were used to investigate how PubMed search details and best match results were affected by the addition of SDoH concepts to MeSH.

Charcot and recent French cinema.

J Hist Neurosci

June 2024

Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

In the scientific world, Professor Jean-Martin Charcot is known for his contribution to the establishment of the anatomo-clinical method in neurology in Paris at the Salpêtrière hospital. However, media attention in the late 1800s has focused on his work on hysteria. In this article, we aim to review how he has been depicted in two recent French movies: (2012) and () (2021).
