<b>Objective</b> To investigate the effect of an additional review based on reporting guidelines such as STROBE and CONSORT quality manuscripts. <b>Design</b> Masked randomised trial. <b>Population</b> Original research manuscripts submitted to <i>Medicina Clínica</i> journal from May 2008 April 2009 considered suitable for publication. <b>Intervention</b> Control group: conventional peer reviews alone. Intervention plus looking missing items guidelines. <b>Outcomes</b> Manuscript quality,...
Rationale Optimal pre-hospital delivery pathways for acute stroke patients suspected to harbor a large vessel occlusion have not been assessed in randomized trials. Aim To establish whether subjects with rapid arterial evaluation scale based suspicion of evaluated by emergency medical services the field higher rates favorable outcome when transferred directly an endovascular center (endovascular treatment center), as compared standard transfer closest local (local-SC). Design Multicenter,...
From 2005 to 2010, we conducted 2 randomized studies on a journal (Medicina Clínica), where took manuscripts received for publication and randomly assigned them either the standard editorial process or additional processes. Both were based use of methodological reviewers reporting guidelines (RG). Those interventions slightly improved items reported Manuscript Quality Assessment Instrument (MQAI), which assesses quality research report. However, masked evaluators able guess allocated group...
To develop a tool to assess the quality of peer-review reports in biomedical research.We conducted an online survey intended for editors and authors. The aimed (1) determine if participants endorse proposed definition report quality; (2) identify most important items include final version (3) any missing items. Participants rated on 5-point scale whether item should be included they were also invited comment importance wording each item. Principal component analysis was performed examine...
We aimed to analyze the trends in antihypertensive therapy Spain during period 1986 1994, as well change pattern of different drugs, relation national/international recommendations for hypertension treatment.Antihypertensive consumption was studied using defined daily dose (DDD) and DHD (DDD/1000 inhabitants/ day) each drug, by Drug Utilization Research Group European Office World Health Organization.The anatomical classification hypotensive drugs has been made according EPhMRA (European...
Abstract Teaching statistics has benefited from Java applets, the successful technology that appeared in late 90s and which allowed real interactivity on an Internet browser. Combining dynamic functionality with web provides inspirational complement to contents of many subjects undergraduate courses, especially for active learning activities. Since applets are becoming obsolete, we explore a different based R (currently popular statistical language) Shiny, is framework developing interactive...
The article presents a web-based tool designed to support learning project led by team of teachers assist students in statistics. goal is build that able display statistical or mathematical problems and correct the students' answers. may include random data, so solution cannot be previously known (if solved beforehand), student can reconsider problem if necessary. methodology proposed could useful many other courses with basis, particularly engineering studies, which make extensive use...
This work proposes the development of a control system for an autonomous underwater vehicle dedicated to observation oceans. The vehicle, hybrid between Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) and Surface (ASV), moves on surface sea makes vertical immersions obtain profiles water column, according pre-established plan. displacement allows navigation through GPS telemetry communication by radio-modem. is 2300mm long 320mm wide. It weighs 85kg reaches maximum depth 30m. A based embedded computer...
This work presents in detail the fuzzy control design for yaw and velocity of an autonomous underwater vehicle. has been developed from mathematical description hydrodynamic model vehicle, which is studied discussed different situations forward velocity. The linearized several linear controllers are designed actuation at certain situations, a way that allows to handle these globally.
The AUV Guanay II is a vehicle developed by SARTI research group of Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya with the objective providing platform for measuring oceanographic variables, such as temperature and salinity water column. In vertical dive important not to disturb environment avoid influencing in measurements. For this reason variable buoyancy (VB) system do immersions has been designed. This paper presents model designed change tests both laboratory field.
