Adaptive Representations for Tracking Breaking News on TwitterIgor Brigadir
This document discusses using adaptive representations to help curate liveblogs and tweet collections about breaking news on Twitter. It notes that breaking news tweets often contain little context and lots of duplicate or near duplicate information. It proposes using distributional semantics, where words are defined by the company they keep, to create representations of terms. These representations are updated regularly using a sliding window over the tweet stream to capture how meanings of terms change as news develops. This adaptive approach provides more timely and meaningful assessments of similarity between terms than static or term frequency based approaches. Results and examples are available online.
Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned in England by her cousin Elizabeth I, who saw Mary as a threat to her rule. Anthony Babington hatched a plot to assassinate Elizabeth and put Mary on the throne, gaining Catholic support. Sir Francis Walsingham, Elizabeth's spymaster, learned of the plot through intercepted letters between Mary and Babington. Walsingham laid a trap to catch Mary approving the plot, in order to convince Elizabeth to execute her rival once and for all. Mary was found complicit in the Babington Plot and executed, eliminating Elizabeth's claim to the English throne.

Case Study Cystic Fibrosis
Cystic Fibrosis: Case Study
The patient is a 7-year-old female. Due to the fact that the patient is a minor, her mother walked into the ER with her. The mother explained that her symptoms consist of persistent coughing throughout the day and it becomes worse at night, the coughing often results in spitting out phlegm. Along with wheezing, stuffy nose, loss of appetite, pain in the abdomen, and the taste of salty skin. The patient has been up coughing and complaining about the pain for 5 hours. Since the patient’s mother had thought it was a regular cold, she had been giving her children’s Tylenol for the past 3 days, 5 mL every 4 hours. Once the patient was taken in, a physical assessment was performed. The questions that were asked to the patients mother were about family history of CF, history of bowel obstruction as an infant, stool, and eating habits (nurses labs 2018). Because of the fact that the patient’s mom mentioned her skin having a salty taste, a sweat test has been recommended to check for cystic fibrosis. The sweat test measures the amount of chloride in sweat while the genetic test detects chromosomal mutations (Very Well Health 2019). Patient has now been diagnosed with cystic fibrous and will be admitted to the hospital for further instructions.
Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology of cystic fibrosis is based on the defects in the cystic fibrosis gene, which codes for protein transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) that functions as a chloride channel and is regulated by cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) (Nurselabs 2018). Cystic fibrosis is often caught at birth but there are cases where people begin to develop it later in life. If it is detected as birth, many persons with cystic fibrosis acquire a lung infection which incites an inflammatory response, the infection becomes established with a distinctive bacterial flora (Nurselabs 2018). If there is a case of a person developing cystic fibrosis as they get older, there are many symptoms that come along with it and it does affect many parts of your body. It can affect your GI tract, pancreas and your sweat glands which causes the skin to taste salt like. Symptoms may include pain in the abdomen, having a chronic cough that may include blood or phlegm, any gastrointestinal problems such as diarrhea, fat in the stool, heartburn, severe constipation, or bulky stools. When it affects your respiratory system, it can cause pulmonary hypertension, shortness of breath, sinusitis, wheezing, acute bronchitis, and/or pneumonia. There might also be a delay in puberty, growth, and in development. Other commons side effects include deformity of nails, different infections, male infertility, nasal polyps or weight loss (Mayo Clinic 2020).
History
The symptoms presented by the patient include coughing up phlegm, wheezing, stuffy nose, pain in the abdomen, salty skin and loss of appetite. In the past the patient has h ...
This document provides information about cystic fibrosis (CF), including that it is a genetic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system, causing thick mucus production. It is caused by mutations in the CFTR gene. The document outlines symptoms of CF, including salty skin and lung infections, as well as treatments like medications and airway clearance. It discusses teaching strategies for students with CF, current research into treatments, and resources for support and information.
Cystic fibrosis is a hereditary disease that affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. It is caused by a defective gene on chromosome 7 that controls salt and water movement in cells. This causes thick, sticky mucus to build up in the lungs and other organs. Common symptoms include persistent coughing, wheezing, fatigue, and poor weight gain. Children with cystic fibrosis require special care like physiotherapy and high calorie meals to help manage the disease. Childcare centers need to make minor modifications and work closely with families to support children with cystic fibrosis.

The document provides information about acute appendicitis, including:
- The appendix is a narrow tube attached to the cecum that contains lymphatic tissue and produces mucus.
- Acute appendicitis occurs when something blocks the appendix, causing irritation, inflammation, and infection that rapidly grows. Without treatment, the inflamed appendix can rupture.
- Acute appendicitis symptoms include pain in the lower right abdomen that increases with pressure and movement. Left untreated, it can lead to life-threatening complications like abdominal abscesses.
- The document discusses risk factors, symptoms, signs, treatment, and provides a case study of a 23-year-old woman diagnosed with acute appendic
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that causes thick, sticky mucus to build up in the lungs and digestive system. It is caused by inheriting two copies of a defective gene, one from each parent. Symptoms vary but often include salty skin, lung infections, and problems digesting food. Treatment focuses on airway clearance techniques, enzymes to improve digestion, nutrition, exercise, and antibiotics to treat lung infections. Life expectancy has increased in recent decades but it remains a serious chronic condition.
This document discusses strategies for breastfeeding special needs infants, including those born preterm or with low birth weight. It outlines recommendations for pumping and storing breastmilk, as well as supporting skin-to-skin contact and breastfeeding. The document also describes managing common clinical issues like jaundice, hypoglycemia, and dehydration. Finally, it notes that while breastmilk is usually best, in rare cases of inborn errors of metabolism, special formulas may be needed.
The document discusses the management of pregnancy, also called antenatal care. It provides definitions for key terms and outlines the objectives and components of Focused Antenatal Care. Focused Antenatal Care emphasizes quality over quantity of visits and aims to provide early detection of complications, disease prevention, birth preparedness, and health promotion. The document details the schedule of antenatal visits and the activities that should be conducted at each visit, including history taking, physical examinations, screening tests, immunizations, and health education.
This document discusses initiatives to encourage breastfeeding in Australia. It finds that while breastfeeding initiation rates are relatively high, rates decline significantly after hospital discharge. It recommends establishing a national breastfeeding monitoring system to better evaluate rates and impacts. Key factors that influence breastfeeding include maternal attitudes, education on avoiding early introduction of solids, addressing breastfeeding difficulties, and ensuring supportive hospital practices consistent with Baby-Friendly Health Initiative guidelines. Legislative strengthening and enforcement of marketing restrictions on breastmilk substitutes is also recommended.
This webinar presented by Rose Marie Straeter discusses the benefits of breastfeeding for both infants and mothers. It highlights how breastmilk is uniquely suited to human infants' nutritional and immunological needs. The presentation reviews evidence that breastfeeding protects against various illnesses and diseases while promoting infant health, growth and development. It also outlines maternal health advantages from reduced cancer risks to assistance with postpartum weight loss. Significant economic savings from lower healthcare costs for breastfed infants are noted. The presentation provides guidance on breastfeeding techniques and managing common concerns in the early days.
A small for gestational age baby is one that is smaller than normal for the number of weeks spent in the womb. They have all organs formed but they are small. Predisposing factors include maternal malnutrition, infections, and placental abnormalities. Medical investigations are done to rule out infections. The baby requires nutritional support through breastfeeding or tube feeding, monitoring to prevent hypothermia and hypoglycemia, and treatment of any infections. Complications can include hypothermia, hypoglycemia, and brain damage if not managed properly.
Pyloric stenosis is a condition in infants where the pyloric sphincter becomes narrowed due to thickening of the muscle, obstructing food passage from the stomach. It typically occurs in males under 6 months, presenting with projectile vomiting. Diagnosis involves abdominal imaging and treatment is pyloromyotomy surgery to divide the thickened muscle. Post-op care focuses on resuming feeding and monitoring for dehydration or wound issues.
- Functional constipation, which accounts for 95% of cases in children and adolescents, is diagnosed based on the Rome IV criteria through a history and physical exam without additional testing.
- Common treatments for functional constipation include polyethylene glycol (Miralax), lactulose, and enemas. Increasing fiber/fluid intake and probiotics are not effective treatments.
- Referrals to a psychologist can help with some treatment goals, like improving a child's quality of life negatively impacted by chronic constipation. Managing constipation requires addressing relapses and potentially long-term therapy.
The document discusses trends in pediatric nursing. It outlines how pediatric nursing has changed significantly due to advances in medicine, technology, societal needs, and changes within the nursing profession itself.

Pediatric nurses now aim to provide quality care that supports families, uses advanced technology competently, is based on scientific evidence, minimizes trauma, reduces costs, and emphasizes preventative healthcare.
This document provides background information on a case study of a 4-year old female patient diagnosed with intestinal parasitism, dehydration, and malnutrition. Key details include:
- The patient presented with vomiting, watery stool, and loss of appetite. Laboratory results found anemia and abnormal white blood cell counts.
- The patient lives in a household of 6 with irregular meals and poor hygiene. She was not taking medications prior to admission.
- A nursing assessment found the patient experienced increased urination and loose stool, dry skin, sunken eyes, and weight loss. Vital signs were stable.
- The patient is currently being treated with several medications including ampicillin and is experiencing difficulty
1) The survey found that while over 80% of respondents felt they received good dietetic support, around 14% raised concerns about inadequate support.
2) Problems reported included long periods without seeing a dietitian, especially concerning for parents of young children. Some patients had not seen a dietitian at all or only once in the past year.
3) Reasons for inadequate support included too few dietitians for the number of patients, meaning dietitians did not have adequate time for each patient. Dietitian positions also went unfilled during sick or maternity leave.
The document provides an overview of acute appendicitis. It begins by describing the anatomy and function of the appendix. It then explains what can cause appendicitis, including blockages from food, stool, or objects trapped in the appendix. Left untreated, appendicitis can rupture and cause serious infection. The document provides statistics on appendicitis, noting it is one of the most common causes of emergency abdominal surgery. It discusses risk factors like age, sex, and diet. The remainder of the document outlines the objectives and definitions for a case study on a 23-year old woman diagnosed with acute appendicitis.
