This research introduces a tailored partitioning strategy leveraging the MD5 hashing algorithm to enhance data insertion, query performance, and load balancing in healthcare systems. By applying a consistent hash function to patient IDs, our approach achieves uniform distribution of records across partitions, optimizing retrieval paths and reducing access latency while ensuring data integrity and compliance. We evaluated the method through experiments focusing on partitioning efficiency, scalability, and fault tolerance. The partitioning efficiency analysis compared our MD5-based approach with standard round-robin methods, measuring insertion times, query latency, and data distribution balance. Scalability tests assessed system performance across increasing dataset sizes and varying partition counts, while fault tolerance experiments examined data integrity and retrieval performance under simulated partition failures. The experimental results demonstrate that the MD5-based partitioning strategy significantly reduces query retrieval times by optimizing data access patterns, achieving up to X% better performance compared to round-robin methods. It also scales effectively with larger datasets, maintaining low latency and ensuring robust resilience under failure scenarios. This novel approach offers a scalable, efficient, and fault-tolerant solution for healthcare systems, facilitating faster clinical decision-making and improved patient care in complex data environments.展开更多

Current frameworks lack specific requirements for the defence industry. The model uses Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to enhance data governance procedures. Design Science Research guided the study, using qualitative and quantitative methods to gather data from MoD personnel. Major deficiencies were found in data integration, quality control, and adherence to data security regulations. The DGMM helps the MOD improve personnel, procedures, technology, and organizational elements related to data management. The model was tested against ISO/IEC 38500 and recommended for use in other government sectors with similar data governance issues. The DGMM has the potential to enhance data management efficiency, security, and compliance in the MOD and guide further research in military data governance.展开更多

Design: Retrospective analysis of electronic records for 37,739 adult inpatients. Setting: A single tertiary care hospital system from 2016-2022. Patients: 37,739 adult ICU patients. Interventions: IMPS was developed using logistic regression with the 6 SOFA components, age, sex and missingness indicators as predictors, and 10-day mortality as the outcome. This was compared with SOFA with median imputation. Measurements and Main Results: Discrimination was evaluated by AUROC, calibration by comparing predicted and observed mortality. IMPS showed excellent discrimination (AUROC 0.80) and calibration. It outperformed SOFA alone (AUROC 0.70) and with age/sex (0.74). Conclusions: By retaining continuous data, adding age, allowing for missingness, and optimizing weights based on empirical mortality association, IMPS achieved substantially better mortality prediction than the original SOFA.展开更多

This information may become a robust source of real-world data, which may form the basis of an objective data-driven analysis. In this study, a methodology for collecting information about audio and visual art events in an automated manner from a large array of websites is presented in detail. This process uses cutting edge Semantic Web, Web Search and Generative AI technologies to convert website documents into a collection of structured data. The value of the methodology is demonstrated by creating a large dataset concerning audiovisual events in Greece. The collected information includes event characteristics, estimated metrics based on their text descriptions, outreach metrics based on the media that reported them, and a multi-layered classification of these events based on their type, subjects and methods used. This dataset is openly provided to the general and academic public through a Web application. Moreover, each event’s outreach is evaluated using these quantitative metrics, the results are analyzed with an emphasis on classification popularity and useful conclusions are drawn concerning the importance of artistic subjects, methods, and media.展开更多

We propose a new LLM Agent-based intelligent data extraction, transformation, and load (IntelligentETL) pipeline that not only ingests PDFs and detects inputs within it but also addresses the extraction of structured and unstructured data by developing tools that most efficiently and securely deal with respective data types. We study the efficiency of our proposed pipeline and compare it with enterprise solutions that also utilize LLMs. We establish the supremacy in timely and accurate data extraction and transformation capabilities of our approach for analyzing the data from varied sources based on nested and/or interlinked input constraints.展开更多

To address this, this paper employs a mixed-effects model to analyze gene expression data. In terms of data selection, 1176 genes from the white mouse gene expression dataset under two experimental conditions were chosen, setting up two conditions: pneumococcal infection and no infection, and constructing a mixed-effects model. After preprocessing the gene chip information, the data were imported into the model, preliminary results were calculated, and permutation tests were performed to biologically validate the preliminary results using GSEA. The final dataset consists of 20 groups of gene expression data from pneumococcal infection, which categorizes functionally related genes based on the similarity of their expression profiles, facilitating the study of genes with unknown functions.展开更多

The purpose of this study was to clarify the attributes of family spirituality and the influencing factors of its decline. Methods: Regarding family spirituality, 1) a literature search was conducted using PubMed and reviews of 20 English-language articles;and 2) semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 Japanese families having elderly members in the household. Data triangulation was performed for both, and a directed content analysis was conducted using Hohashi’s Concentric Sphere Family Environment Theory as the framework. Results: Attributes of family spirituality included 21 categories, such as “I think that my family exists for my children and grandchildren.” Factors influencing the decline in family spirituality included 20 categories in total, including 6 categories of risk/causal/promoting factors such as “lack of caring for family members”;11 categories of preventive/inhibitory/suppression factors such as “healthcare professionals not being close to the family”;and three categories of context-sensitive factors such as “death of a family member.” Conclusions/Implications for Practice: Family intervention requires nurses to understand the attributes of family spirituality and to control the influencing factors of a decline in family spirituality. Through such efforts, families will be able to discover the meaning of the existence of the family and maintain and improve their well-being.展开更多

Design Science Research guided the study, using qualitative and quantitative methods to gather data from MoD personnel. Major deficiencies were found in data integration, quality control, and adherence to data security regulations. The DGMM helps the MOD improve personnel, procedures, technology, and organizational elements related to data management. The model was tested against ISO/IEC 38500 and recommended for use in other government sectors with similar data governance issues. The DGMM has the potential to enhance data management efficiency, security, and compliance in the MOD and guide further research in military data governance.
文摘There is a growing body of clinical research on the utility of synthetic data derivatives,an emerging research tool in medicine.In nephrology,clinicians can use machine learning and artificial intelligence as powerful aids in their clinical decision-making while also preserving patient privacy.This is especially important given the epidemiology of chronic kidney disease,renal oncology,and hypertension worldwide.However,there remains a need to create a framework for guidance regarding how to better utilize synthetic data as a practical application in this research.
文摘Objective: To develop an illness severity score that predicts short-term mortality, based on a small number of readily available measurements, and overcomes limitations of the SOFA score, for use in research involving large-scale electronic health records. Design: Retrospective analysis of electronic records for 37,739 adult inpatients. Setting: A single tertiary care hospital system from 2016-2022. Patients: 37,739 adult ICU patients. Interventions: IMPS was developed using logistic regression with the 6 SOFA components, age, sex and missingness indicators as predictors, and 10-day mortality as the outcome. This was compared with SOFA with median imputation. Measurements and Main Results: Discrimination was evaluated by AUROC, calibration by comparing predicted and observed mortality. IMPS showed excellent discrimination (AUROC 0.80) and calibration. It outperformed SOFA alone (AUROC 0.70) and with age/sex (0.74). Conclusions: By retaining continuous data, adding age, allowing for missingness, and optimizing weights based on empirical mortality association, IMPS achieved substantially better mortality prediction than the original SOFA.
文摘The World Wide Web provides a wealth of information about everything, including contemporary audio and visual art events, which are discussed on media outlets, blogs, and specialized websites alike. This information may become a robust source of real-world data, which may form the basis of an objective data-driven analysis. In this study, a methodology for collecting information about audio and visual art events in an automated manner from a large array of websites is presented in detail. This process uses cutting edge Semantic Web, Web Search and Generative AI technologies to convert website documents into a collection of structured data. The value of the methodology is demonstrated by creating a large dataset concerning audiovisual events in Greece. The collected information includes event characteristics, estimated metrics based on their text descriptions, outreach metrics based on the media that reported them, and a multi-layered classification of these events based on their type, subjects and methods used. This dataset is openly provided to the general and academic public through a Web application. Moreover, each event’s outreach is evaluated using these quantitative metrics, the results are analyzed with an emphasis on classification popularity and useful conclusions are drawn concerning the importance of artistic subjects, methods, and media.
文摘Enterprise applications utilize relational databases and structured business processes, requiring slow and expensive conversion of inputs and outputs, from business documents such as invoices, purchase orders, and receipts, into known templates and schemas before processing. We propose a new LLM Agent-based intelligent data extraction, transformation, and load (IntelligentETL) pipeline that not only ingests PDFs and detects inputs within it but also addresses the extraction of structured and unstructured data by developing tools that most efficiently and securely deal with respective data types. We study the efficiency of our proposed pipeline and compare it with enterprise solutions that also utilize LLMs. We establish the supremacy in timely and accurate data extraction and transformation capabilities of our approach for analyzing the data from varied sources based on nested and/or interlinked input constraints.
文摘DNA microarray technology is an extremely effective technique for studying gene expression patterns in cells, and the main challenge currently faced by this technology is how to analyze the large amount of gene expression data generated. To address this, this paper employs a mixed-effects model to analyze gene expression data. In terms of data selection, 1176 genes from the white mouse gene expression dataset under two experimental conditions were chosen, setting up two conditions: pneumococcal infection and no infection, and constructing a mixed-effects model. After preprocessing the gene chip information, the data were imported into the model, preliminary results were calculated, and permutation tests were performed to biologically validate the preliminary results using GSEA. The final dataset consists of 20 groups of gene expression data from pneumococcal infection, which categorizes functionally related genes based on the similarity of their expression profiles, facilitating the study of genes with unknown functions.

文摘This study aims to conduct an in-depth analysis of social media data using causal inference methods to explore the underlying mechanisms driving user behavior patterns.By leveraging large-scale social media datasets,this research develops a systematic analytical framework that integrates techniques such as propensity score matching,regression analysis,and regression discontinuity design to identify the causal effects of content characteristics,user attributes,and social network structures on user interactions,including clicks,shares,comments,and likes.The empirical findings indicate that factors such as sentiment,topical relevance,and network centrality have significant causal impacts on user behavior,with notable differences observed among various user groups.This study not only enriches the theoretical understanding of social media data analysis but also provides data-driven decision support and practical guidance for fields such as digital marketing,public opinion management,and digital governance.
文摘Background and Purpose: In recent years, individual spirituality has been attracting attention, but little research has been conducted as it relates to family spirituality that applies this concept to the family and relates to the meaning of the family’s existence in terms of the entire family. The purpose of this study was to clarify the attributes of family spirituality and the influencing factors of its decline. Methods: Regarding family spirituality, 1) a literature search was conducted using PubMed and reviews of 20 English-language articles;and 2) semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 Japanese families having elderly members in the household. Data triangulation was performed for both, and a directed content analysis was conducted using Hohashi’s Concentric Sphere Family Environment Theory as the framework. Results: Attributes of family spirituality included 21 categories, such as “I think that my family exists for my children and grandchildren.” Factors influencing the decline in family spirituality included 20 categories in total, including 6 categories of risk/causal/promoting factors such as “lack of caring for family members”;11 categories of preventive/inhibitory/suppression factors such as “healthcare professionals not being close to the family”;and three categories of context-sensitive factors such as “death of a family member.” Conclusions/Implications for Practice: Family intervention requires nurses to understand the attributes of family spirituality and to control the influencing factors of a decline in family spirituality. Through such efforts, families will be able to discover the meaning of the existence of the family and maintain and improve their well-being.
