The importance of social components health has been emphasized both in epidemiology and public health. This paper highlights the significant impact on outcomes a novel way. Introducing concept sociomarkers, which are measurable indicators conditions patient is embedded, we employed machine learning approach that uses biomarkers sociomarkers to identify asthma patients at risk hospital revisit after an initial visit with accuracy 66%. analysis performed over integrated dataset consisting...

Colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) is expressed in monocytes/macrophages and dendritic cells. These cells play important roles the innate immune response, which regarded as an aspect of asthma development. Genetic alterations CSF1R gene may contribute to development asthma. We investigated whether polymorphisms were associated with risk Through direct DNA sequencing gene, we identified 28 single nucleotide (SNPs) genotyped them 303 normal controls 498 asthmatic patients.

Most chronic diseases are a result of complex web causative and correlated factors. As result, effective public health or clinical interventions that intend to generate sustainable change in these most often use combination strategies programs. To optimize comparative effectiveness evaluations select the efficient intervention(s), stakeholders (i.e. institutions, policy-makers advocacy groups, practitioners, insurers, clinicians, researchers) need access reliable assessment methods. Building...

본 논고는 가혹한 억압의 조건에서 대규모 동원을 가능하게 하는 구조적 토대를 연구한다. 어떤 종류의 네트워크 구조가 저항운동에 적합한가에 대한 답을 찾고자 한다. 강력한 압제 속에서는 저항운동이 일어나는 것은 드물다. 시민 참여의 경험이 적은 사회에서는 더욱 어렵다. 이러한 시민사회론과 집단행동론의 관점에서 조선 말기에서 대한제국을 아우르는 기간의 반일 저항 운동은 매우 이론적으로 흥미로운 경험적 사례이다. 이 연구는 국가 유공자 공훈록 자료의 전기를 토대로 1985년에서 1945년까지 일본에 저항한 1,624명의 독립운동 활동가 인물 네트워크의 추이를 분석한다. 전기적 분석을 기반으로 하여, 텍스트 데이터를 숫자 및 그래프와 결합하여 역사적 디지털 아카이브를 탐색하고 조사하는 새로운 방법을 시도한다. 이를 통해 형성과 진화를 특성과 저항운동의 참여 인원간의 관계에 중점을 두어 저항의 형태학을 발전시킨다. 시계열적 한국의 저항운동은 그 연결의 다양성과 분절성을 영속성을 유지할...

African American children are more than twice as likely white to die after surgery, and have increased risk for longer hospital stays, post-surgical complications, higher costs. Prior research into disparities in pediatric surgery outcomes has not considered interactions between patient-level Clinical Risk Factors (CRFs) population-level Social, Economic, Environmental (SEEFs) primarily due the lack of integrated data sets. In this study, we analyze correlations SEEFs CRFs outcomes. We used...
