CASE-BASED MEDICAL INFORMATICS

Case-based medical informatics

Abstract Background The "applied" nature distinguishes applied sciences from theoretical sciences.To emphasize this distinction, we begin with a general, meta-level overview of the scientific endeavor.We introduce the knowledge spectrum and four interconnected modalities of knowledge.In addition to the traditional differentiation Computer Adaptor b

Tort Law and Medical Malpractice Insurance Premiums

This paper estimated the effects of tort law and insurer investment returns on physician malpractice insurance premiums.Data were collected on tort law from 1991 through 2004, Hops and multivariate regression models, including fixed effects for state and year, were used to estimate the effect of changes in tort law on medical malpractice premiums.T

Structural insights into complexes of glucose-regulated Protein94 (Grp94) with human immunoglobulin G. relevance for Grp94-IgG complexes that form in vivo in pathological conditions.

While the mechanism by which Grp94 displays its chaperone function with client peptides in the cell Hops has been elucidated extensively, much less is known about the nature and properties of how Grp94 can engage binding to proteins once it is exposed on the cell surface or liberated in the extra-cellular milieu, as occurs in pathological condition

Compound Speckle Reduction in Laser Imaging Systems by Using a Vibrating Multimode Fiber and a Tracked Moving Flexible DOE Loop

The speckle phenomenon produced by coherent waves interfering Storage Cabinets with each other is undesirable in laser imaging systems.For each of the laser speckle reduction methods in the literature, it is difficult to reduce speckle to an extremely low level (< 3%) and also ensure good image quality.Therefore, a compound speckle re
