Virtual colonoscopy is a new method of imaging the colon in which thin-section, helical computed tomography (CT) used to generate high-resolution, two-dimensional axial images. Three-dimensional images simulating those obtained with conventional are then reconstructed off-line. We compared performance virtual and for detection colorectal polyps.We prospectively studied 100 patients at high risk neoplasia (60 men 40 women; mean age, 62 years). performed immediately before colonoscopy....
Intelligent Personal Assistants (IPAs) are widely available on devices such as smartphones. However, most people do not use them regularly. Previous research has studied the experiences of frequent IPA users. Using qualitative methods we explore experience infrequent users: who have tried IPAs, but choose to Unsurprisingly users share some users, e.g. frustration at limitations fully hands-free interaction. Significant points contrast and previously unidentified concerns also emerge....
To evaluate the use of preoperative virtual colonoscopy to examine proximal colon in patients with distal occlusive carcinomas, defined as cancers that cannot be traversed endoscopically.Twenty-nine colorectal carcinomas underwent a standard protocol. Patients acute bowel obstruction were excluded. Results compared findings colonoscopy, barium enema examination, intraoperative palpation, histopathologic outcome, and postoperative where possible.Virtual helped identify all 29 demonstrated two...

Rationale: The presence of inflammatory cells on bronchoalveolar lavage is often used to predict disease activity and the need for therapy in systemic sclerosis–associated interstitial lung disease.Objectives: To evaluate whether cellularity identifies distinct subsets and/or predicts cyclophosphamide responsiveness.Methods: Patients underwent baseline high-resolution computed tomography as part a randomized placebo-controlled trial versus placebo (Scleroderma Lung Study) determine effect...
Adults' use of newspapers is found to correlate positively with having reasons for preferring one U.S. senatorial candidate over another. Television exposure negatively related political reasoning a nearly significant degree. Data were provided by 1974 nationwide, postelection survey. Analysis was conducted at the aggregate level, examining media behavior and knowledge in 67 news markets. News markets competition among daily show greater levels information than monopoly areas, controlling...
To assess the reliability and minimal clinically important differences (MCID) for FVC% predicted in Scleroderma Lung Study I II.
Three factors lead to the hypothesis that agenda-setting should be weaker at local political level compared national level: (1) more directly observable nature of problems, (2) and strength interpersonal communication networks, (3) relatively heavier media coverage issues. This was supported with data from respondents assigned random either or issue conditions a content analysis television newspaper in Toledo, Ohio, Contrary findings certain previous studies, network found exercise stronger...
Arguments are presented for looking at cognitive outcomes as dependent variables in communication research rather than placing emphasis only on affective realms. This approach also brings attention to the independent-dependent variable emphases found literature over last few decades. The social context of media use and motivations that spring from this contextual embeddedness discussed with regard information utility distribution availability. Finally a comment is offered how these...

Virtual colonoscopy is a potentially powerful tool for non-invasive colorectal evaluation. In vitro studies have established its accuracy in simulated polyp detection but little data exist regarding use clinical practice.To evaluate the ability of virtual to detect cancers and polyps patients with endoscopically proven neoplasms correlate findings those conventional colonoscopy, surgery, histopathology.Thirty eight endoscopic suggestive carcinoma.Virtual was performed using thin section...
This study examines brand awareness (preferences) and request styles (communication approaches) at Christmas of Australian children adults. The is founded in the growing Santa Claus literature that has examined various issues related to gift giving behaviour time. based on content analysis 422 letters written by Claus. results indicate are brand-orientated their behaviour, adopt fairly meaningful strategies use visual imagery ie graphics communication attempts secure requested gifts specific...
Purpose The act of giving a gift at Christmas is form consumption that invokes different levels involvement. purpose this paper to explore and measure involvement in parental branded items as gifts. Design/methodology/approach required information was gathered via self‐administered survey method distributed parents with least one child between the ages three eight years. A questionnaire package delivered five participating schools seven kindergartens for children take home their parents. As...
Preference for supportive versus discrepant information are examined under three experimental situations surrounding use: (1) a condition in which subjects receive chosen by mail, (2) anticipate joining discussion group following exposure, and (3) expect to debate one another after exposure information. The latter involving public use of resulted higher mean preferences than the private situation. Among persons situations, support-seeking was greater on issues about individuals felt strongly...
Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect medication with anticoagulant properties on false positive rate in a population‐based faecal occult blood test (FOBt) colorectal screening programme. Methods Eight hundred and forty‐six consecutive individuals found be FOBt‐positive Scottish arm national cancer pilot were studied. All aged between 50 69 years underwent colonoscopy. Before procedure participants' current recorded, correlated colonoscopic findings. Results Of...
Purpose The purpose of this research is to show that Christmas spirit often given as a reason or excuse for the goodwill, generosity and altruism associated with celebration Christmas. Despite influence occasion on cultural, financial economic issues, there has been no specific empirical attention toward structure measurement concept spirit.
