Objectives: During certification process of sensory assessors of Slovak certification body we obtained results for basic taste thresholds and lifestyle habits.
Materials And Methods: 500 adult people were screened during experiment with food industry background. For analysis of basic and non basic tastes, we used standardized procedure of ISO 8586-1:1993.
Results: In flavour test experiment, group of (26-35 y.o) produced the lowest error ratio (1.438), highest is (56+ y.o.) group with result (2.0). Average error value based on gender for women was (1.510) in comparison to men (1.477). People with allergies have the average error ratio (1.437) in comparison to people without allergies (1.511). Non-smokers produced less errors (1.484) against the smokers (1.576). Another flavour threshold identification test detected differences among age groups (by age are values increased). The highest number of errors made by men in metallic taste was (24%) the same as made by women (22%). Higher error ratio made by men occurred in salty taste (19%) against women (10%). Analysis detected some differences between allergic/non-allergic, smokers/non-smokers groups.

Background: With increased for promoting neuroplasticity in older adults through Cognitive training (CT), the study aimed to develop culturally relevant caregiver-driven model of CT for dementia called the Individualized Cognitive Augmentation Regimen for Elderly (iCARE).
Method: The study has three phases- 1. Development Phase- Included a) literature review, b) item generation, c) expert rating, d) field trial (n = 3), and e) feedback and modification.

Background: Medication safety is crucial in clinical care. Although many hospitals have implemented prospective prescription review systems to manage medication use, the impact of these systems on pediatric patients is not yet fully understood.
Objectives: We explore the characteristics and economic impacts of pediatric prospective prescription review and identify factors influencing intervention success rates.

Background: Unstable diametaphyseal radius fractures (DMRFs) can be prone to complications, and treatment strategies are heterogeneous. Studies are difficult to interpret as definitions of the diametaphyseal junction zone (DMJZ) are impractical for clinical use, imprecise, or prone to error.
Methods: We introduce the forearm fracture index (FFI) to define DMRFs in radiographs and ultrasound.

With ongoing social progress, three-dimensional (3D) video is becoming increasingly prevalent in everyday life. As a key component of 3D video technology, depth video plays a crucial role by providing information about the distance and spatial distribution of objects within a scene. This study focuses on deep video encoding and proposes an efficient encoding method that integrates the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) with a hyperautomation mechanism.
