Recent research on word-level confidence estimation for speech recognition systems has primarily focused lightweight models known as Confidence Estimation Modules (CEMs), which rely hand-engineered features derived from Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) outputs. In contrast, we propose a novel end-to-end approach that leverages the ASR model itself (Whisper) to generate scores. Specifically, introduce method in Whisper is fine-tuned produce scalar scores given an audio input and its...
The quality of case reports, which are often the first reported evidence for a disease, may be negatively affected by rush to publication early in pandemic. We aimed determine completeness reporting (COR) reports published on coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Subungual melanoma, an uncommon form of acral melanoma that arises within the nail matrix, accounts for 1%–3% all cutaneous in Caucasians. As subungual presents a more disguised manner than lesions, increased vigilance is required. It most commonly as discolouration nail, splitting or nail-bed bleeding. Black pigmentation adjacent fold, termed Hutchinson’s sign, may be diagnostic clue. Treatment remains surgical with wide local excision and amputation primary modalities. We present case...
Solid waste management has been one of our key environmental challenges, which, in addition to disrupting the environment's equilibrium, negative consequences for society's health. One most pressing issues time is identifying, monitoring, and managing trash. The conventional method manually monitoring garbage bins a complex, time-consuming procedure that requires more human work, time, money, no way compatible with modern technologies. In this paper, smart system designed by using concepts...
Hair thread tourniquet syndrome (HTTS) is a rare surgical emergency that occurs when one or more appendages are acutely circumferentially strangulated by human hair. If left untreated it may induce prolonged ischaemia, resulting in tissue necrosis autoamputation of the affected digit. It involve fingers, toes, penis labia. typically infants, but cases have also been reported adults. Prompt recognition and treatment complete removal constricting agent crucial to preserve tissue. We report...
Background Since 2008, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) has mandated that studies it funds either in whole or part are required to publish their results as open access (OA) within 12 months publication using online repositories and/or OA journals. Yet, there is evidence authors poorly compliant with this mandate. Specifically, been an apparent decrease after 2015, which coincides a change policy during same year. One particular may have contributed decline was lifting...
On 12 January 2020 Chinese authorities shared the sequence of a novel coronavirus termed severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Since then COVID-19 pandemic had rapidly affected our day-to-day life disrupting world trade and movements. Wearing face masks is one preventive measures recommended by health to reduce spread droplets containing viruses, including SARS-CoV-2 virus responsible for COVID-19. Therefore, Many regions organizations have implemented regulations or guidelines...
Abstract Background Editorial board members, as experts in their field, often publish relevant research journals on which they serve. This combined role of “editor-as-author” may be a source for conflict interest the peer review process. In Gastroenterology-focused journals, prevalence instances editor-as-author has not been explored. Aims To estimate among high impact factor (IF) journals. Methods We used cross-sectional study design. InCites Journal reports to identify 30 Gastroenterology...
Abstract Background Propensity score matching (PSM), a statistical technique that estimates treatment effect by accounting for predictor covariates, has been used to evaluate biologics inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Financial conflicts of interest are prevalent in the marketing biologic medications. It is unclear whether this burden present among authors PSM studies comparing IBD and biosimilars. Objective This study was aimed determine prevalence financial evaluating Methods We conducted...
Study ObjectivesBack and neck pain are persistent associated with disability loss of independence in older adults.Spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) supervised rehabilitative exercise (SRE) both recommended treatments for spine adults, often combination one another.It is unknown whether long-term management these therapies superior to shorter-term treatment.This study compares the effectiveness short-term treatment (12 weeks) versus (36 back related adults using SMT combined SRE. Methods...
Power Hardware In Loop (PHIL) methodology enables the flexible and risk-free testing of physical equipment. these simulations, part system is simulated in a Real-Time (RT) simulator, another actual hardware. A communication module essential to exchange signals between RT simulator hardware side. Conventionally, copper wires are used as link. However, they suffer from various disadvantages such no isolation, presence ground loop, high EMI, etc. To mitigate shortcomings, fiber optics developed...
Abstract Background Patient advocacy organizations (PAOs) are not-for-profit that aim to support families and individuals afflicted by illnesses. PAOs play a significant role in guiding health policy, providing education patients, lobbying, supporting research. Previous studies have demonstrated may receive financial payments from pharmaceutical medical device manufacturers. This create risk of conflict interest. Aims To assess the prevalence transparency donations industry gastrointestinal...
Abstract Background Editorial self-publication refers to the practice wherein editors publish research in journals which they serve as editorial board members. The International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) has detailed recommendations against self-publication. There is evidence suggest that membership may influence decision academic papers, contribute publication bias. Despite this, there have been few attempts characterize this gastroenterology journals. Aims To determine...
Abstract Background Ghost-authorship involves the exclusion of individuals who have made substantial contributions to article from author byline. Previous studies found that ghost-authorship is highly prevalent in industry-sponsored clinical trials. Its prevalence, however, has yet be investigated trials biologics management inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Aims To determine prevalence IBD biologic randomized controlled (RCTs). Methods Biologic medications indicated for ulcerative colitis...
Abstract Background Outcome switching is a well-described form of inconsistent reporting in randomized clinical trials (RCTs), wherein pre-specified primary and/or secondary outcomes are changed between trial registration and the publication results without explanation. This particular concern, as selective that favorable will insert bias into trial’s may cast doubt on veracity its findings. While it has been investigated other disciplines, prevalence outcome yet to be described among RCTs...
