Abstract:

Studies on the driver's fatigue, must focus on at least two things: the time-of-day that affect by circadian factors, and time-on-task. This paper discusses the risk level of driver fatigue, which generally have to drive in a long duration or more than 4 hours. The risk of fatigue was assessed using Fatigue Likelihood Scoring (FLS) by Transport Canada. Based on interviews with 24 inter-city bus drivers, 18 of the 24 drivers have a very high risk of fatigue that characterized by FLS scores greater than 20, while the rest have a high risk driver that characterized by FLS value greater than 10.

Abstract:

2 major components of the Type A coronary-prone behavior pattern are said to be a chronic sense of time urgency and impatience. The present study was done to determine whether these characteristics are associated with the driving performance of Type A individuals. 38 women and 32 men completed the Jenkins Activity Survey and a questionnaire concerning their driving. Those subjects exhibiting more Type A behavior tended to be more impatient, reported being involved in more accidents, and received more tickets for driving violations than those scoring lower on the Type A scale.

Abstract:

Background: As Automated Driving Systems (ADS) technology gets assimilated into the market, the driver’s obligation will be changed to a supervisory role. A key point to consider is the driver’s engagement in the secondary task to maintain the driver/user in the control loop. This paper aims to monitor driver engagement with a game and identify any impacts the task has on hazard recognition. Methods: We designed a driving simulation using Unity3D and incorporated three tasks: No-task, AR-Video, and AR-Game tasks. The driver engaged in an AR object interception game while monitoring the road fo

Credit score models have been successfully applied in a traditional credit card industry and by mortgage firms to determine defaulting customer from the non-defaulting customer. In the light of growing competition in the microfinance industry, over-indebtedness and other factors, the industry has come under increased regulatory supervision. Our study provides evidence from a large microfinance institutions (MFI) in India, and we have applied both the credit scoring method and neural network (NN) method and compared the results.

Abstract Developing tools that accurately detect at-risk driving behaviors is a public-health priority. There is a need for a measure that accurately assesses older drivers’ level of competence on familiar roadways.

The eDOS was used to record and compare the driving environment and performance of older drivers and low-risk younger drivers during their everyday driving. Older (n=160,

Land transport is an unavoidable experience for most livestock, yet there is limited research comparing animal welfare under different conditions. We video recorded sheep responses during short (2 h) commercial road transport journeys. Using Qualitative Behavioural Assessment, observers (blinded to the treatments) scored the behavioural expression of sheep and reached significant consensus in their scoring patterns (p < 0.001). There were also significant effects of vehicle crate design (sheep transported in a ‘standard’ crate were more calm/relaxed than those transported in a ‘convertible’

Abstract:

3642 Background: Precision oncology requires the identification of individual molecular pathomechanisms to find optimal personalized treatment strategies for every cancer patient. Incorporation of complex molecular information into routine clinical practice remains a significant challenge due to the lack of a reproducible, standardized process of clinical decision making. Methods: To provide a standardized process for molecular interpretation, we develop a precision oncology decision support system, the Realtime Oncology Molecular Treatment Calculator (MTC). MTC is a rule-based medical knowled

ObjectivesPortugal has the highest HIV incidence rate in Western Europe. The proportion assigned to sexual contact between men recently increased to more than 30% of all HIV infections. Men who have sex with men (MSM) are vulnerable to the acquisition of other sexually transmitted infections (STIs), increasing the per-contact risk of HIV infection. Building on syndemic theory, the aim of this analysis was to identify patterns of current sexual behaviour in MSM, and explore their relationship with self-reported current, past STI diagnoses and HIV positive serostatus.DesignA cross-sectional beha

Abstract Objectives: TP53, a tumor suppressor gene, is frequently mutated in myeloid malignancies. The negative impact of TP53 mutations in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) has been described previously but there is controversy regarding the prognostic impact of the mutation's characteristics (location, type, passenger vs. driver, and others). Methods: We sequenced DNA samples from 732 patients (pts) with MDS and related myeloid malignancies for the presence of TP53 mutations and 61 other genes that have been described as recurrently mutated in MDS.

We present a comprehensive overview of these ex14 SA across 1,387 NSCLCs and characterized potential AR mechanisms. Methods: Hybrid-capture based comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) was performed on samples from 60,495 NSCLC patients (pts). A scoring system was applied leveraging our large database of samples with METex14 SA to optimize accurate reporting of these variants. Paired samples were collec

Numerous health insurers offer bonus programmes that score customers’ health behaviour, and car insurers offer telematics tariffs that score driving behaviour. In many countries, however, only a minority of customers participate in these programmes. In a population-representative survey of private households in Germany (N = 2,215), we study the acceptance of the criteria (features) on which the scoring programmes are based: the features for driver scoring (speed, texting while driving, time of driving, area of driving, accelerating and braking behaviour, respectively) and for health scoring (w

Abstract:

Background Ecological communities tend to be spatially structured due to environmental gradients and/or spatially contagious processes such as growth, dispersion and species interactions. Data transformation followed by usage of algorithms such as Redundancy Analysis (RDA) is a fairly common approach in studies searching for spatial structure in ecological communities, despite recent suggestions advocating the use of Generalized Linear Models (GLMs). Here, we compared the performance of GLMs and RDA in describing spatial structure in ecological community composition data. We simulated realisti

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION: A sizable proportion of elderly acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients receive frontline hypomethylating agents (HMAs), namely azacitidine (AZA) and decitabine (DAC), as they are deemed unfit for intensive chemotherapy (ICT) by their treating physicians. A foreseeable high early death (ED) rate and lack of overall survival (OS) benefit under ICT are the main drivers for this decision. Several groups have published different predictive tools for ED or OS in elderly patients receiving ICT but, since ED in patients treated by HMAs is lower, the research activity has been restricted t
