Osteoporosis Detection Using Deep LearningIJMTST Journal
Osteoporosis is a bone disorder which occurs due to low bone mass, degradation of bone micro-architecture
and high susceptibility to fracture. It is a major health concern across the world, especially in elderly people.
Osteoporosis can cause spinal or hip fractures that may lead to socio-economic burden and high morbidity.
Therefore, there is a need for the early diagnosis of osteoporosis and predicting the presence of the fracture.
We introduce a Convolutional Neural Network model to effectively diagnose osteoporosis in bone radiography
data. Automated diagnosis from digital radiographs is very challenging since the scans of healthy and
osteoporotic subjects show little or no visual differences. In this paper, we have proposed a model to separate
healthy from osteoporotic subjects using high dimensional textural feature representations computed from
radiography images. CNN can help us bring the use of structural MRI measurements of bone quality into
clinical practice for the detection of Osteoporosis as it gives high accuracy.
Vertebra osteoporosis detection based on bone density using Index-Singh stati...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Osteoporosis is a progressive decrease in bone density so that the bones become brittle and broken. Bones are composed of minerals such as calcium and phosphate, so the bones become hard and solid. Many people do not realize that osteoporosis is a silent disease. Therefore, early detection of osteoporosis is very important. Detection of osteoporosis can be done by utilizing x-ray images of the vertebra. In this research the detection of bone density using blended statistical methods and Index-Singh. The x-ray sample used in this research was 50 images of osteoporosis patients. The result of the area calculation yields the highest white pixel is 7,983 pixels and the lowest white pixel is 5,410 pixels. Based on the results of these calculations, a statistical grouping is conducted into 6 Index-Singh. The range of statistical values is 5,410–6,266 pixels grouped into Index-Singh 1, range of data 6,323–6,512 pixels grouped into Index-Singh 2, the data range 6,520-6,747 pixels grouped into Index-Singh 3, data range 6,778-6,998 pixels grouped into Index-Singh 4, data range 7,001-7,219 pixels grouped into Index-Singh 5, and data range 7,338-7,983 pixels grouped into Index-Singh 6. Overall, the results of testing the osteoporosis detection system have been successful and can be used as an early detection system for osteoporosis. This assistance system has a detection accuracy of 76% compared to doctor's justification.

Estimation of Walking rate in Complex activity recognitionEditor IJCATR
Physical activity recognition using embedded sensors has enabled by many context-aware applications in different areas. In
sequential acceleration data there is a natural dependence between observations of movement or behavior, a fact that has been largely
ignored in most analyses. In this paper, investigate the role that smart devices, including smartphones, can play in identifying activities
of daily living. Monitoring and precisely quantifying users’ physical activity with inertial measurement unit-based devices, for
instance, has also proven to be important in health management of patients affected by chronic diseases, e.g. We show that their
combination only improves the overall recognition performance when their individual performances are not very high, so that there is
room for performance improvement. We show that the system can be used accurately to monitor both feet movement and use this
result in many applications such as any playing. Time and frequency domain features of the signal were used to discriminate between
activities, it demonstrates accuracy of 93% when employing a random forest analytical approach.

Technologies to support self-directed learning through social interactionDragan Gasevic
This talk will describe underlying principles, design, and experience gained with ProSolo, a platform that supports personalized, competency-based learning through social interaction. Traditional educational models are primarily focused on classroom education and training typically associated with the notion of credit hours as the (only) route towards formal credentials. This limits opportunities for creating personalized learning pathways in the changing educational context. ProSolo provide users with the ability to unbundle education programs, courses, and units into discrete yet inter-related competencies, allowing learners to construct their education pathway in a manner that better reflects their interests and future career motivations and requirements. ProSolo is developed with the intention of providing learners with opportunities to customize, modify, and personalize their self-directed learning journey. ProSolo supports the development of skills for self-directed learning by allowing learners to control the planning, learning, and presentation of outcomes associated with their learning. To support learners with different levels of prior knowledge, study skills, and cultural backgrounds, ProSolo offers features for supporting self-directed learning through three types of scaffolds, including instructional, social, and technological. Learning in ProSolo occurs within a socially rich environment that aggregates learners’ information created and shared in their existing online spaces. ProSolo makes use of learning analytics to empower learners and instructors in this new model of education. ProSolo was used in the Data, Learning, and Analytics MOOC and is currently being piloted at several university sites.

Predictive Value of Surgical Safety Checklist and Operating Room (OR) briefin...Ruby Med Plus
Health care is complex, with several interdisciplinary elements, incredibly unpredictable and at high risk of hazard. Healthcare environments are complex and tightly coupled systems that have proven to be error-prone . Patients expect to be reasonably safe when under medical supervision . In 1999, the US based, Institute of Medicine report, To Err is Human, claimed that between 44.000 and 98.000 patients in the US die every year from preventable adverse events.
However regardless of an ongoing push for drastic improvement of the safety culture in healthcare, medical errors continue to occur at unacceptable rates .
The rising cost of health care is given progressively more importance worldwide. A major factor affecting hospital cost is complications following surgery . Surgical care is an integral part of health care throughout the world, with an estimated 234 million operations performed annually . Surgical complications are a considerable cause of death and disability around the world. The World Bank reported that in 2002, an estimated 164 million disability-adjusted life years, representing 11% of the entire disease burden, were attributable to surgically treatable conditions . Surgical complications are devastating to patients, costly to health care systems, and often preventable, though their prevention typically requires a change in systems and individual behavior.

Training and Development
One of the most important responsibilities of the human resource management (HRM) professional in the health care field is training and development. Training and development provides the skills, competencies, and knowledge to employees allowing for the health care organization to meet the “constantly changing and increasing demands for high-quality health care” (Pynes & Lombardi, 2011, p. 290). Training is an important function that can benefit the entire organization in a multitude of ways including raising awareness and sensitivity to relationship dynamics (improving both employee to employee relationships and employee to customer-patient relationships), increasing the professional capabilities of all employees (resulting in greater effectiveness and efficiency throughout the organization), and significantly eliminating mistakes in the delivery of care (Pynes & Lombardi, 2011). Development prepares the employees for the future by providing the knowledge and skills necessary for long-term advancement and job opportunities within the organization (Pynes & Lombardi, 2011). Training and development are certainly an important element necessary for improving and maintaining quality health care.
Medical errors account for approximately 98,000 deaths per year in the United States and increase health care costs, patient morbidity and mortality, and decrease public confidence in the health care system (Pham, Aswani, Rosen, Lee, Huddle, Weeks, & Pronovost, 2012). Of these medical errors, almost two-thirds are associated with surgical care (de Vries, Prins, Crolla, den Outer, van Andel, Helden, & Smorenburg, 2010). Although most surgical teams deliver their care to the best of their ability it is not uncommon for patients to be accidentally injured while under their care (Catchpole, Dale, Hirst, Smith, & Giddings, 2010). HRM professionals must recognize the importance of developing and implementing effective and appropriate training and development programs for their surgical teams to improve care and decrease, and potentially eliminate, surgical errors.
According to Pynes & Lombardi (2011) one effective method of training is the use of virtual reality which is a “computer-based technology that provides trainees with a three-dimensional learning experience” (p. 300). Although the use of simulation, a type of virtual reality, is relatively new in surgical education, it has been widely used for decades in other areas such as in the military and in aviation (Satava, 2007) and research has found that the skills acquired from this type of training are transferable to the operative setting (Sturm, Windsor, Cosman, Cregan, Hewett, & Maddern, (2008). According to Bruppcher et al (2010), “Compared with traditional interactive seminars, simulat.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.

Significance of Taste Sensation:
Differentiation between pleasant and harmful food
Influence on behavior
Selection of food based on metabolic needs
Receptors of Taste:
Taste buds on the tongue
Influence of sense of smell, texture of food, and pain stimulation (e.g., by pepper)
Primary and Secondary Taste Sensations:
Primary taste sensations: Sweet, Sour, Salty, Bitter, Umami
Chemical basis and signal transduction mechanisms for each taste
Taste Threshold and Index:
Taste threshold values for Sweet (sucrose), Salty (NaCl), Sour (HCl), and Bitter (Quinine)
Taste index relationship: Inversely proportional to taste threshold
Taste Blindness:
Inability to taste certain substances, particularly thiourea compounds
Example: Phenylthiocarbamide
Structure and Function of Taste Buds:
Composition: Epithelial cells, Sustentacular/Supporting cells, Taste cells, Basal cells
Features: Taste pores, Taste hairs/microvilli, and Taste nerve fibers
Location of Taste Buds:
Found in papillae of the tongue (Fungiform, Circumvallate, Foliate)
Also present on the palate, tonsillar pillars, epiglottis, and proximal esophagus
Mechanism of Taste Stimulation:
Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli
Signal transduction pathways for Umami, Sweet, Bitter, Sour, and Salty tastes
Taste Sensitivity and Adaptation:
Decrease in sensitivity with age
Rapid adaptation of taste sensation
Role of Saliva in Taste:
Dissolution of tastants to reach receptors
Washing away the stimulus
Taste Preferences and Aversions:
Mechanisms behind taste preference and aversion
Influence of receptors and neural pathways
Impact of Sensory Nerve Damage:
Degeneration of taste buds if the sensory nerve fiber is cut
Abnormalities of Taste Detection:
Conditions: Ageusia, Hypogeusia, Dysgeusia (parageusia)
Causes: Nerve damage, neurological disorders, infections, poor oral hygiene, adverse drug effects, deficiencies, aging, tobacco use, altered neurotransmitter levels
Neurotransmitters and Taste Threshold:
Effects of serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) on taste sensitivity
Supertasters:
25% of the population with heightened sensitivity to taste, especially bitterness
Increased number of fungiform papillae
