Introduction: The creation of controlled microrobots capable of moving in human vessels in accordance with a given traffic is asophisticated problem. An effective way to solve it is the use of SEMS (Smart ElectroMechanical System) modules. These modulesconnected in a special way can simulate the operation of a ciliary apparatus or a flagellated propulsor used as propulsive devices for amicrorobot. Purpose: Development of a controlled medical microrobot based on standard SEMS modules. Results: A medical microrobotis developed. The principles of collective movement control for such microrobots are discussed. A special role in microrobot groupcontrol is assigned to the central nervous system of a microrobot which functions as an automatic control system. When synthesizingan optimal situational control over a group of microrobots, logical-probabilistic and logical-linguistic constraints are translatedinto logical-interval ones, reducing the optimization problem to solving a number of classical mathematical programming problems.Practical relevance: The use of various combinations of SEMS modules in medical microrobots allows you to increase their accuracy,speed and adaptability to the environment. This is because in this case, in contrast to the mechanisms commonly used in microrobots,parallelism is introduced not only in the measurement and calculation processes, but also in the execution of control commands. Thedesign features of the developed modules allow you to provide broad technological capabilities of various biomedical robotic complexes.

Global climate changes and the increasing impact of mankind on nature have a stressful effect on biological objects. In the current situation, it is necessary to develop technologies for protecting biological objects and correcting their condition. In the presence of several alternative corrective facilities, arises the task of developing an information technology for choosing the optimal one for a given biological object in a particular situation. In this work, mathematical and methodological support of such technology is offered. The logical rules for each of the possible corrective facilities are formulated. To synthesize logical rules, it is suggested to use the method of forming a probabilistic conclusion. A context diagram and a first level decomposition diagram of the information technology for choosing the corrective facilities under stress impact on the biological object, which describes the input, output, control actions, functional information processes, data storage devices, external entities and the flow of data flows between them. The work of the proposed information technology is based on eight interrelated subprocesses. The information-logical model of data is constructed that reflects all objects and events, the information about which it is necessary to store, and the connections between them. Based on the developed information technology, the structure of the information system is proposed, which will allow to automatize the procedure of selecting corrective facilities. The structure of the system is five interrelated modules that perform the functions of the system. The strengths and weaknesses of the development have been identified. The opportunities of development and possible threats that may arise when implementing it are analyzed. The use of the developed information technology on the example of the choice of anesthetic support for a traumatologic operation will allow to automate the process of choosing an anesthetic support for a traumatological operation, facilitate the work of a doctor and improve the quality of medical care for patients

Full textAbstract:
Objectives: The COVID-19 pandemic prevented people from accessing medical care in person; in such a scenario, telemedicine emerged as a boon. Telemedicine helped to increase the availability of homoeopathy during the pandemic. The Ministry of Ayurveda, Yoga and Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha and Homoeopathy (AYUSH) formulated guidelines to enable registered homoeopathic practitioners (RHPs) to safely provide healthcare using telemedicine. In this study, we demonstrated the scope of telemedicine in homoeopathic practice by incorporating Hahnemannian principles in a case-based learning (CBL) module. Materials and Methods: A retrospective purposive study was conducted on 10 acute cases that were treated with homoeopathy through telemedicine during the COVID-19 lockdown. Patient-physician communications were analysed using Hahnemannian principles. Cases were assessed based on telecommunication application, type of consent, symptoms, signs, nosological provisional diagnosis, risk assessment, comorbidity, miasm and susceptibility status, totality of symptoms, repetition strategy and type of consult. Therapeutic management included building a logical framework of the case and auxiliary counselling. Patients were followed up to determine their health status. Results: All 10 cases were successfully treated with homoeopathy using AYUSH Telemedicine Practice Guidelines (ATPG) and incorporating Hahnemannian principles. Tele-homoeopathy was found to be effective in the pandemic by preventing disease spread and progression from mild to severe stage. Conclusion: Adhering to the ATPG and incorporating Hahnemannian principles can be effectively demonstrated through CBL modules; these enable RHPs to develop rational thinking and learn from clinical experiences.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractDecision support systems play an important role in medical fields as they can augment clinicians to deal more efficiently and effectively with complex decision-making processes. In the diagnosis of headache disorders, however, existing approaches and tools are still not optimal. On the one hand, to support the diagnosis of this complex and vast spectrum of disorders, the International Headache Society released in 1988 the International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD), now in its 3rd edition: a 200 pages document classifying more than 300 different kinds of headaches, where each is identified via a collection of specific nontrivial diagnostic criteria. On the other hand, the high number of headache disorders and their complex criteria make the medical history process inaccurate and not exhaustive both for clinicians and existing automatic tools. To fill this gap, we present head-asp, a novel decision support system for the diagnosis of headache disorders. Through a REST Web Service, head-asp implements a dynamic questionnaire that complies with ICHD-3 by exploiting two logical modules to reach a complete diagnosis while trying to minimize the total number of questions being posed to patients. Finally, head-asp is freely available on-line and it is receiving very positive feedback from the group of neurologists that is testing it.

The 3-D interconnection started at 3D PLUS in 1996 and led to the stacking of nearly all types of analogical and logical components, sensors, MEMS, etc for the Hi-Rel field (Space, Defence, Medical, Industrial). This technology is extremely robust (−130 °C +175 °C, 40000g), and is fully qualified by all worldwide most important Space Agencies, for Defence applications and Harsh environment. A technological break started in 2002 ; it consisted in another 20 to 30 reduction factor of the weight and volume of these 3-D modules. The Z pitch is 100 μm and the X Y size is given by the size of the larger die plus 100 μm of polymer around it. This is a stacked of Known Good Rebuilt Wafer of full wafer level technique. The dice are received in wafers and following operations are carried out :- Pick, flip and place of the good dice on a “sticking skin”- Moulding of the whole of this « pseudo wafer » in order to obtain what we call a « Known Good Rebuilt Wafer (KGRW) ». These two first steps are already developed by Freescale (RCP technique up to 300mm), then Infineon and Nanium (ex Infineon/Quimoda) and now about ten companies are developing this 2-D approach:- Stacking and gluing of KGRW 1, 2, 3..., n, by means of an adhesive film- Dicing of these stacked rebuilt wafers by techniques identical to the dicing of standard wafers- Metallization of the dicing streets with nickel + gold by electroless chemical plating identical to the UBM plating technique- Direct laser patterning by laser with our edge connection technique up to 100 μm pitch. Below this pitch, the Thru Polymer Via (TPV) are made through the stacked wafers. The equivalent pitch will be 20 μm. it can be noticed that the shielding can be made on the dicing street.- Electrical test at the stacked wafer level- Singulation This approach allows to use standard dice without any modification. It is multi sources and the stacking of the good rebuilt wafers allows to obtain an excellent yield. A development agreement has been signed with a semiconductors manufacturer. Smart card application- A development is in progress with the most worldwide important manufacturer of smart cards in order to integrate 5 levels of dice within a cavity of 550 μm inside the 800 μm SIM card. Medical applications will be presented:- Micro modulator with 5 ASICs within a 3 mm diameter tube,- Prototypes for the major US pacemaker manufacturer (Medtronic) and one European pacemaker manufacturer (Sorin/Ela Medical). A full pacemaker module of 0,5 cm3 (16 times smaller than the standard pacemaker: 8 cm3) will be shown- Micro camera for Hard X-Ray for Philips Medical (DE). Industrial applications- Abandoned sensors for Airbus and industrial areas. This « full wafer level » approach will allow to build System in Package (SiP) or “Abandoned Sensors” at very low costs, since the process uses mainly the steps of wafers building; the “panelization” allows to be in parallel processing from A to Z steps. Moreover, the use of Known Good Rebuilt Wafer like the RCP allows to stack Good wafer at the reverse what is impossible with the wafer to wafer approach.

Full textAbstract:
Background The advancement of human enhancement technology (HET) has raised concerns among bioethicist due to its potential to undermine human nature. The existence and application of this technology in medical practice is inevitable facts which shifted medical practice. Medical education institutions have no choice except to prepare and equip future doctors with moral and ethical capacity to deal with this challenge, hence the development of this HET module.ObjectiveOur study aimed to explore students’ perspectives and acceptance of the HET module.MethodWe asked students to write daily commentaries expressing their perspectives and acceptance throughout the module. Content analysis was performed on these textual data based on three main issues: (1) opinions on the module design (contents and methods); (2) reflections on overall learning experiences; and (3) applicability of the knowledge and skills. We analysed students’ grade to confirm achievements of learning objectives and effectivity of the module.Results A total of 78 medical students self-enrolled into this elective module in 2015 and 2016, and wrote daily commentaries posted online. Most students thought that the teaching methods were stimulating critical thinking, encouraging open-safe discussion, and sensitizing students to humanity issues. Topics related to ethics, humanities, and social sciences discussed were perceived as interesting and provided new perspectives. In overall reflection, students felt for the 1sttime in medical school they had an enjoyable yet life-changing learning experience through this module. Students were inspired to use the knowledge and skills gained from this module to be better doctors, deliver comprehensive patient care, and contribute more to humanity. The LOs were well achieved as indicated with the students’ understanding of the HET concept and discourses, and their ability to show critical analysis, build and present logical-ethical arguments, and suggest a recommendation for better HET application in their group as well as individual works.ConclusionThe module was delivered effectively and well accepted by the students. Most importantly, the module had successfully engaged students in various personalized form and influenced students’ positive transformation regarding personal, academic and professional commitments. The module showed potentials for further development and implementation as part of the mandatory medical curriculum.

The main goal of this work is to propose a tool-chain capable of analyzing a data collection of temporally qualified (genetic) mutation profiles, i.e., a collection of DNA-sequences (genes) that present variations with respect to their “healthy” versions. We implemented a system consisting of a front-end, a reasoning core, and a post-processor: the first transforms the input data retrieved from medical databases into a set of logical facts, while the last displays the computation results as graphs. Concerning the reasoning core, we employed the Answer Set Programming paradigm, which is capable of deducing complex information from data. However, since the system is modular, this component can be replaced by any logic programming tool for different kinds of data analysis. Indeed, we tested the use of a probabilistic inductive logic programming core.

Full textAbstract:
Over the past 30 years, information technology has gradually transformed the way health care is provisioned for patients. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is an incurable malady that threatens the lives of millions around the world. The huge amount of medical information in terms of complex interdependence between progression of health problems and various other factors makes the representation of data more challenging. This study investigated how formal semantic standards could be used for building an ontology knowledge repository to provide ubiquitous healthcare and medical recommendations for COPD patient to reduce preventable harm. The novel contribution of the suggested framework resides in the patient-centered monitoring approach, as we work to create dynamic adaptive protection services according to the current context of patient. This work executes a sequential modular approach consisting of patient, disease, location, devices, activities, environment and services to deliver personalized real-time medical care for COPD patients. The main benefits of this project are: (1) adhering to dynamic safe boundaries for the vital signs, which may vary depending on multiple factors; (2) assessing environmental risk factors; and (3) evaluating the patient’s daily activities through scheduled events to avoid potentially dangerous situations. This solution implements an interrelated set of ontologies with a logical base of Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL) rules derived from the medical guidelines and expert pneumologists to handle all contextual situations.

Students seek active learning experiences that can rapidly impart relevant information in the most convenient way possible. Computer-assisted education can now use the resources of the World Wide Web to convey the important characteristics of events as elemental as the physical properties of osmotically active particles in the cell and as complex as the nerve action potential or the integrative behavior of the intact organism. We have designed laboratory exercises that introduce first-year medical students to membrane and action potentials, as well as the more complex example of integrative physiology, using the dynamic properties of computer simulations. Two specific examples are presented. The first presents the physical laws that apply to osmotic, chemical, and electrical gradients, leading to the development of the concept of membrane potentials; this module concludes with the simulation of the ability of the sodium-potassium pump to establish chemical gradients and maintain cell volume. The second module simulates the action potential according to the Hodgkin-Huxley model, illustrating the concepts of threshold, inactivation, refractory period, and accommodation. Students can access these resources during the scheduled laboratories or on their own time via our Web site on the Internet (http./(/)phys-main.umsmed.edu) by using the World Wide Web protocol. Accurate version control is possible because one valid, but easily edited, copy of the labs exists at the Web site. A common graphical interface is possible through the use of the Hypertext mark-up language. Platform independence is possible through the logical and arithmetic calculations inherent to graphical browsers and the Javascript computer language. The initial success of this program indicates that medical education can be very effective both by the use of accurate simulations and by the existence of a universally accessible Internet resource.

Full textAbstract:
Corporate consulting, a one-time seemingly marvelous mixture of bare-knuckle rationalization, esoterica, and visionary futurism, is invariably deployed when business structures threaten to lose their equilibrium. What it actually means to be consulted, the part played by media in consulting, and how the branch of corporate consulting became a system of knowledge with such a socially important role is the object of this book. For the first time, it explores the ways in which the latest media technology, avant-garde aesthetics, economic pressures, and holistic philosophy together constituted the form of consulting dominant today, and which consequences arise from this. Thus it follows the work of early corporate consultants like Frank and Lillian Gilbreth and H. L. Gantt, while analyzing and describing their visual consulting models. The book develops a new, innovative, interdisciplinary approach, situated between media and business history, media archeology, and social theory, and thereby charts the genesis of modern consulting knowledge. It reveals that corporate consulting must be conceptualized in close relation to the visual culture that prevailed during this time, one which drew from nineteenth-century visualization methods and, more particularly, the new medium of film. Consulting is a cultural technique that is markedly characterized by media processes, in which the boundaries of economic logic and legitimacy emerge, and which, at the same time, considerably shapes and stabilizes this modus operandi up to the present day.

Today, computational thinking and computational design approaches transform almost all stages of architectural practice and education. In this context, since students are most likely to encounter computers, in this study, the approach of teaching students computational design logic is adopted instead of teaching how to use computers only as a drafting or representation tool. This study focuses on developing a pedagogical model that aims to teach computational thinking logic and analog computing through a design process. The proposed model consists of four modules as follows: abstraction of music and text (Module 1), decomposition of buildings (Module 2), analysis of body-space (Module 3), design of a space by the help of spatial patterns (Module 4). The proposed model is applied to first-year students in Interior Design Studio in the 2019-2020 fall semester. As a result of Module 4, students designed both anticipated and unanticipated spaces in an algorithmic way.

Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in developing personalized and nonhospital based care systems to improve the management of cardiac care. The EPI-MEDICS project has designed an intelligent, portable Personal ECG Monitor (PEM) embedding an advanced decision making system. We present two of the ambient intelligence models embedded in the PEM: the neural-network based ischemia detection module and the Bayesian-network risk stratification module. Ischemia detection was expanded to take into account the patient ECG, clinical data, and medical history. The neural-network ECG interpretation module and the Bayesian-network risk factors module collaborate through a fuzzy-logic-based layer. We also present two telemedicine solutions that we have designed and in which the PEM is integrated. The first telemedical architecture was created to allow the collection of medical data and their transmission between healthcare providers to get an expert opinion. The second one is intended for improving healthcare in old peoples homes.

Deductive approaches in medical decision-making have an air of certainty borrowed from philosophical deduction, as for example, in the hypothetico-deductive approach. However, deduction, although certain, is limited because it cannot contribute to new knowledge other than proving some claims to knowledge as false (using modus tollens). Syllogistic deduction requires modification to gain utility, such as the partial and practical syllogisms. However, these forms are logically invalid in that they do not ensure certainty in the conclusions. The partial syllogism can be rendered more certain by the use of probability. However, the necessity of a medical decision requires dichotomization of the continuous probability variable. A cutoff threshold applied to the probability is necessary to enable a dichotomous decision, such as whether to treat or not treat a patient. The practical syllogism introduces the notion of cause and effect, which also may influence medical decisions, although often in a counterproductive manner.

Full textAbstract:
Various manifestations of products, prototypes and tools are commonly used in design research to discover and describe novel phenomena, or to test specific research theories, or to explore intrinsic data that cannot be accessed and validated otherwise. However, as research means, the above physical artifacts are over-detailed and inflexible, in particular when phenomena associated with design creativity and product ideation are investigated. To support design inclusive research in the context of conceptualization and early testing of complex, knowledge-intensive software tools, the authors propose modular abstract prototyping. The original goal of abstract prototyping was to demonstrate the real life processes established by new artifact-service combinations, as well as the interactions of humans with them in various application scenarios. A modular abstract prototype relies on a comprehensive information structure. The demonstration contents of the modules are defined by a stakeholder and purpose oriented logical dissecting of this information structure, and implemented as digitally recorded, multi-media enabled narrations and enactments. This paper discusses the technical aspects of developing modular abstract prototypes, and their use as flexible and evolving research means. A complex application example is presented in which modular abstract prototyping was used in focus group sessions to assess the conceptualization of a trade-off forecasting software tool by various stakeholders. This tool is being developed for forecasting energy saving and financial benefits that can be achieved by ubiquitous augmentation. The stakeholders have formulated positive opinion about the level of immersion and the articulation of informing that can be achieved by using modular abstract prototypes. Future research focuses on the development of a web-hosted engine for real-time interactive abstract prototyping in participatory research sessions.

However, to properly deal with digital media, designers need to master their logic, potentialities, and implications. Therefore the urgency to include such knowledge in building, reframing, and implementing the curricula and design education of today's and tomorrow's fashion designers. This considers the complexity of getting acquainted and implementing vocabulary, design methodologies and practices from other fields of studies. This paper presents the lessons learnt from the first application of the MOOC “Data Science, Visualization and Interactive Narratives for CCIs” to an intensive design module in the Design for the Fashion System. Attention is posed on how it was included in a Blended Learning context to meet the scope and answer previously identified criticalities as providing knowledge from neighbouring fields, and to what extent it succeeded.
