Objectives There is an unmet need for accurate and user-friendly definitions of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) disease activity remission. We aimed to derive validate the SLE Disease Activity Score (SLE-DAS) categories clinical remission state. Methods Derivation was conducted at Padova Lupus Clinic (Italy). Validation prospectively performed Cochin (France) by post hoc analysis BLISS-76 trial. At each clinic, expert classified patients in three categories: remission, mild or...
In the context of an initiative to empower non-expert practitioners perform sound design in games, we have been working on a collection patterns and deck cards that function as tokens those patterns.
Expertise in sound design for games is still a privilege of senior designers. The broad community independent game developers remains mostly challenged by small budgets and lack know-how, while trying to integrate their games.
ALGORITHMIC THINKING IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION: OPPORTUNITIES AND SUPPORTS THE PORTUGUESE CONTEXT
In the context of an initiative to empower non-expert practitioners perform sound design in games, assisted by a pattern language approach, it is helpful hold instrument that fosters contact with patterns. With such purpose, we have been working on deck cards, which also subject appreciation for explorations as integral part game design. We present current rationale deck, evidencing its suitability maintain opportunities at reach, expeditious and non-intrusive manner. report exercise...

Alzheimer’s disease is a type of dementia that affects many individuals, mainly in an older age group. Over time, it leads to other diseases affect their autonomy and independence. The quality food ingestion way mitigate the preserve patient’s well-being, which substantially impacts health. Many existing applications for plan management focus on prescription plans but do not provide feedback nutritionist real amount ingested calories. It makes these inadequate diseases, where monitoring...
A game soundscape often includes sounds that are triggered by the logic according to player's actions and other real time occurrences. The dynamic nature of such triggering events leads a composition is not necessarily interesting, at given moment.

A game soundscape often includes sounds that are triggered by the logic according to player's actions and other real time occurrences. The dynamic nature of such triggering events can lead a composition is not necessarily interesting, at given moment. Following principles from Acoustic Ecology, specifically notion healthy soundscape, we propose system aiming moderation generated during gameplay in way retains its communicational meaningfulness. For instance, aims ensure does get overcrowded...

Background: Treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is tailored according to the intensity SLE disease activity and aims achieve remission. Current definitions remission categories are mostly based on Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI), which has important limitations. The Score (SLE-DAS) a validated continuous score with higher accuracy in measuring sensitivity-to-change as compared SLEDAI 1 . SLE-DAS user-friendly its online calculator. Objectives: To derive validate cut-off values...
