Smart manufacturing refers to optimization techniques that are implemented in production operations by utilizing advanced analytics approaches. With the widespread increase deploying industrial internet of things ( IIOT ) sensors processes, there is a progressive need for optimal and effective approaches data management. Embracing machine learning artificial intelligence take advantage can lead efficient intelligent automation. In this paper, we conduct comprehensive analysis based on...
The dextrose tolerance test is now being extensively employed as a diagnostic procedure. It most beneficially used in the differentiation of mild diabetes mellitus and renal diabetes. also used, believed to be value, many pathologic conditions, such encephalitis, malignant tumor, pituitary thyroid dysfunctions nephritis.1 Although it definitely established procedure, there some diversity opinion concerning what constitutes normal response oral administration dextrose. Some writers state that...
Many changes, physiologic and biochemical, take place during menstruation. Women frequently describe subjective effects, such as general exhaustion, irritability generalized discomfort. A certain percentage of them, I believe an increasingly smaller percentage, experience no change in their state being, physical, mental or emotional. My purpose this paper is to draw attention a phenomenon that, up the present time, has received very little attention, judged by literature. refer edema that...
Here, we present experimental evidence of the direct piezoelectric effect in globular protein, lysozyme. Piezoelectric materials are employed many actuating and sensing applications because they can convert mechanical energy into electrical vice versa. Although originally studied inorganic materials, several biological including amino acids bone, also exhibit piezoelectricity. The exact mechanisms supporting piezoelectricity not known, nor is it known whether conforms strictly to criteria...
Stopping Therapy for Alpha1-Antitrypsin Deficiency In Ireland, augmentation treatment of patients with genetic alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency was abruptly discontinued when government–industry price...
Most of the techniques involved in customer clustering and segmentation are based on conventional methods quantitative analysis or traditional data mining approaches such as K-Means algorithm. However, artificial neural networks (ANNs), evolutionary algorithms, fuzzy can be more efficient since they reveal nonlinear patterns. They also seem to robust coping with noise-related issues relevant noise handling operations. do not make any statistical distributional assumptions regarding nature...
The fact that toxemias, from whatever origin, cause a disturbance in the tolerance for dextrose of laboratory animals or human beings has been definitely established. This noted clinically and experimentally. Clinically, it is illustrated by much feared infections diabetic patients. effect producing delay removal blood stream or, other words, decreased tolerance. exact explanation this phenomenon lacking.

The failure of some high-income countries to retain their medical graduates is one driver doctor immigration from low- and middle-income countries. Ireland, which attracts many international graduates, implemented a retention strategy early 2015. This study measures junior doctors' migration intentions, the reasons they leave likelihood them returning. aim identify characteristics patterns doctors who plan emigrate inform targeted these doctors. A national sample 1148 hospital completed an...
Summary We propose and fit a Bayesian model to infer palaeoclimate over several thousand years. The data that we use arise as ancient pollen counts taken from sediment cores together with radiocarbon dates which provide (uncertain) ages. When combined modern pollen–climate set, can calibrate into climate. normal–inverse Gaussian process prior the stochastic volatility of time, present novel modularized Markov chain Monte Chain algorithm enable fast computation. illustrate our approach...
Summary Background Previous studies support good intra‐ and interobserver agreements for endoscopic evaluation of various upper respiratory tract ( URT ) diseases in horses. However, these mainly assessed resting examination videos and/or focussed on a single abnormality. Objectives To estimate agreement identification grading all abnormalities from overground endoscopy OGE Thoroughbreds. Study design Blinded, fully crossed design. Methods Resting n = 43 Thoroughbreds were retrospectively...
Abstract Spatial analysis ranges from simple univariate descriptive statistics to complex multivariate analyses and is typically used investigate spatial patterns or identify spatially linked consumer behaviours in insurance. This paper investigates if the incorporation of publicly available demographic census data at population level useful modelling customers’ lapse behaviour (i.e. stopping payment premiums) life insurance policies, based on provided by an company Ireland. From company’s...
The experiments presented in this paper are a continuation of observations bearing the same title and published at an earlier date Archives.<sup>1</sup>It has been shown previous studies<sup>2</sup>that diphtheria toxin produces toxemia rabbits which lessens animals' ability to remove dextrose from blood as judged by tolerance test. In animals poisoned with toxin, after several days toxemia, sugar two hours administration 5 Gm. was found range high 400 500 mg. per hundred cubic centimeters....
In a previous study<sup>1</sup>it has been shown that it is possible to change materially subject's tolerance for dextrose by the use of different types diet. The diet used demonstrate this effect were: one consisting strictly protein, fats, carbohydrates; in another group food was not taken. subjects experiment were normal, healthy, male medical students. They instructed follow certain dietary outlines mentioned two days, and on third morning, fasting stomach, test run each subject with...
As the response of diabetic patients to food is same as that normal person save for varying degrees deficiency endogenous insulin, it was thought knowledge fluctuations blood sugar over a period twenty-four hours might prove value in management cases. There have appeared literature studies variations and nondiabetic persons. From these suggestions been offered facilitate handling diabetes regards time insulin should be given, dosage, etc. Jonas his associates<sup>1</sup>studied all day...
Summary Background We hypothesised that grade/appearance for upper respiratory tract ( URT ) disorders identified at the first overground endoscopy OGE examination would vary subsequent examinations. Objectives To compare examinations from horses evaluated on least two occasions under similar exercise conditions without treatment intervention. Study design Retrospective cohort. Methods Pre‐exercise and exercising recordings Thoroughbred undergoing multiple were reviewed, with each horse...
Strategies adopted globally to mitigate the threat of COVID-19 have primarily involved lockdown measures with substantial economic and social costs varying degrees success. Morbidity patterns variants a strong association age, while restrictive negative mental health outcomes in some age groups. Reduced prospects may also afflict cohorts more than others. Motivated by this, we propose model describe community spread incorporating role age-specific interactions. Through flexible...
Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is an important zoonotic disease which has serious and sometimes fatal effects on both human non-human animals. In many countries it endemic in the cattle population a considerable economic impact through losses productivity impacts trade. The incidence rate Ireland varies by herd location hoped that statistical disease-mapping models accounting for spatio-temporal correlation covariates might contribute towards explaining this variation.Ireland was divided into...
