A GHAZAL NOT INCLUDED IN THE DIVAN OF MUHIBBI AND TAHMIS BY ŞEMSI TO THIS GHAZAL

In classical Turkish literature, there are poems which are not included in the divans of poets, for various reasons. Mecmuas/collections of these poems, and poets not having a divan, are important resources. It is possible to find unknown poems or poets in some archival documents, in addition to collections. One of the aforementioned archive materials is registered in file number 324 and folder number 27 in the sources of Ottoman Archives at Topkapi Palace Museum MA.e, the Directorate of State Archives. The document includes 41 ghazals (lyric poems, a form with its roots in seventh-century Arabia that is composed of five to fifteen structurally and thematically autonomous couplets), 1 tahmis/making five, 4 stanzas/quatrains and 1 distich/couplet written by 8 poets. This document containing 18 ghazals of Muhibbî and nazires (imitation, interpretation, reply in kind) written after his poems has some parallels with the nazire mecmua/imitation collection edited by Mehmed Izzî, probably in the 16th century. There exist 13 imitations written by Bâkî to Sultan Suleiman in the document authenticating the collection organized by Mehmed Izzî and including unknown poems of the poets such as Dâʻî, Khalîl, and Şemsî. The document also includes a imitation competition reported by Gubârî. What makes the document the relevant to this study is that it includes a poem not included in the Divan of Sultan Suleiman published by both Ak and Yavuz, and a tahmis written on his poem by a poet with the pseudonym Şemsî. In this study, firstly it was examined whether the poem in question is by Sultan Suleiman or not, later examining if this tahmis might belonged to which Şemsî. As a result of the study, it is clear that the poem belongs to Muhibbî, and İsfendiyarzâde Ahmed Şemsî (Shemsî) Paşa (Pasha) -one of the 16th century poets- has made a tahmis to this lyric poem.

Data Centre Profile: The Provincial Health Data Centre of the Western Cape Province, South Africa.

IntroductionThe Western Cape Provincial Health Data Centre (PHDC) consolidates person-level clinical data across government services, leveraging sustained investments in patient registration systems, a unique identifier, and maturation of administrative and clinical digital health systems.ObjectivesThe PHDC supports clinical care directly through tools for clinicians which integrate patient data or identify patients in need of interventions, and indirectly through supporting operational and epidemiological analyses.MethodsThe PHDC is housed entirely within government. Data are processed from a range of source systems, usually daily, through distinct harmonisation and curation, beneficiation, and reporting processes. Linkage is predominantly through the unique identifier which doubles as a pervasive folder number, augmented by other identifiers. Further data processing includes triangulation of multiple data sources for enumerating health conditions, with assignment of certainty levels for each enumeration. Outputs include patient-specific email alerts, a web-based consolidated patient clinical viewing platform, filterable line-listings of patients with specific conditions and associated characteristics and outcomes, management reports and dashboards, and data releases in response to operational and research data requests. Strict architectural, administrative and governance processes ensure privacy protection.ResultsIn the past decade 8 million unique people are recorded as having sought healthcare in the provincial public sector health services, with current utilisation at 15 million attendances or admissions a year. Cross-sectional enumeration of health conditions includes over 430 000 people with HIV, 500 000 with hypertension, 235 000 with diabetes. Annually 110 000 pregnancies and 54 000 patients with tuberculosis are enumerated. Over 50 data requests are processed each year for internal and external requesters in accordance with data request and release governance processes.ConclusionsThe single consolidated environment for person-level health data in the Western Cape has created new opportunities for supporting patient care, while improving the governance around access to and release of sensitive patient data.

Monitoring diagnosis, retention in care and viral load suppression in children testing HIV polymerase chain reaction-positive in two districts in South Africa.

Retention in care is associated with improved virological control and survival among HIV-infected children. However, retention of children in HIV care remains a challenge. To describe, using routine laboratory HIV test data, the retention-in-care and virological outcomes of HIV-infected children aged <18 months in two districts in South Africa. HIV polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-positive results of children from uMkhanyakude and Tshwane districts in KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng provinces, respectively, tested between April 2015 and May 2016, were extracted from the National Health Laboratory Service's Corporate Data Warehouse (CDW). HIV-related tests (PCR, viral load (VL), CD4+) were documented longitudinally for each child for ≥13 months after the first positive PCR result by manually searching demographics within the CDW, supplemented by an automated patient-linking algorithm. Test sets were linked if two or more demographics (surname, name, date of birth, folder number) matched exactly. Programmatic indicators assessed included age at first positive PCR test, presumed confirmatory test rates, retention in care, and VL suppression at 6 and 12 months. Ninety-four and 304 children tested HIV PCR-positive in uMkhanyakude and Tshwane, respectively. The median age at diagnosis was 3.6 months (interquartile range (IQR) 1.4 - 7.1) for uMkhanyakude and 2.3 months (IQR 0.1 - 6.7) for Tshwane. In uMkhanyakude, confirmed in utero infections accounted for 18.1% of transmissions (n=17), compared with 29.6% (n=90) in Tshwane. Presumed confirmatory test rates following an initial positive PCR result were 77.7% and 71.7% for uMkhanyakude and Tshwane, respectively. Within 6 months of starting antiretroviral therapy, 43 children (58.9%) were lost to follow-up in uMkhanyakude compared with 160 (73.4%) in Tshwane. Of those retained in care at 6 months with a VL measurement, 15 (60.0%) from uMkhanyakude had a VL <1 000 copies/mL, compared with 24 (48.0%) in Tshwane. For both districts, a third of all HIV PCR-positive children were retained in care at the end of follow-up, with 29 (30.9%) in uMkhanyakude and 99 (32.5%) in Tshwane. Of these, 12 (41.4%) had a VL <1 000 copies/mL in uMkhanyakude compared with 28 (28.3%) in Tshwane. We demonstrate the value of routine laboratory data in monitoring diagnosis, retention and VL suppression in HIV-infected children. This approach is scalable, can be reported near real-time, is relatively inexpensive to implement, and provides a tool for improving paediatric HIV services until clinical databases can assume this role.

Machine Learning Readmission Risk Modeling: A Pediatric Case Study.

Background Hospital readmission prediction in pediatric hospitals has received little attention. Studies have focused on the readmission frequency analysis stratified by disease and demographic/geographic characteristics but there are no predictive modeling approaches, which may be useful to identify preventable readmissions that constitute a major portion of the cost attributed to readmissions. Objective To assess the all-cause readmission predictive performance achieved by machine learning techniques in the emergency department of a pediatric hospital in Santiago, Chile. Materials An all-cause admissions dataset has been collected along six consecutive years in a pediatric hospital in Santiago, Chile. The variables collected are the same used for the determination of the child's treatment administrative cost. Methods Retrospective predictive analysis of 30-day readmission was formulated as a binary classification problem. We report classification results achieved with various model building approaches after data curation and preprocessing for correction of class imbalance. We compute repeated cross-validation (RCV) with decreasing number of folders to assess performance and sensitivity to effect of imbalance in the test set and training set size. Results Increase in recall due to SMOTE class imbalance correction is large and statistically significant. The Naive Bayes (NB) approach achieves the best AUC (0.65); however the shallow multilayer perceptron has the best PPV and f-score (5.6 and 10.2, resp.). The NB and support vector machines (SVM) give comparable results if we consider AUC, PPV, and f-score ranking for all RCV experiments. High recall of deep multilayer perceptron is due to high false positive ratio. There is no detectable effect of the number of folds in the RCV on the predictive performance of the algorithms. Conclusions We recommend the use of Naive Bayes (NB) with Gaussian distribution model as the most robust modeling approach for pediatric readmission prediction, achieving the best results across all training dataset sizes. The results show that the approach could be applied to detect preventable readmissions.

Mortalities and morbidities due to traffic accidents: the unknown criminal

PurposeStudying the relationship between crime and traffic accidents in different geographical regions is very critical since varying relationships have been reported to exist in diverse areas. The purpose of this paper is to determine the relationship between crime with injuries and deaths due to road traffic accidents in Iran.Design/methodology/approachIn this study, macro-level panel data between 2007 and 2013 were used. The number of folders due to crimes in each province was used as explanatory variables to show the amount of crime in each province. The number of fatal and injury death was used as outcome variables. The models were estimated using fixed effect panel regression estimator.FindingsThe results of this study showed that the number of records in courts (Cr) had a significant positive relationship with fatal accidents (coefficient=0.006). In the injury accidents model, Cr coefficient was 0.008 and significant. In addition, GINI had positive relationship with fatal accidents (coefficient: 1.396), while it had no significant relationship with injury accidents.Originality/valueA positive association was found between crime and mortalities and morbidities due to traffic accidents. Traffic accidents and crimes are derived from a similar nature. So traffic accidents could be categorized as crime and it is important to increase more prohibitions to decrease traffic accidents. Prevention programs should focus on population groups with high social distinction and criminals, especially traffic offenses.

Assessment of the impact of application of singlephoton emission computed tomography and SPECT-CT on lesion categorisation in bone scintigraphy

Objectives: To assess initial experience with the use of a new single-photon emission computed tomography-computed tomography (SPECT-CT) in the evaluation of lesions.Methods: The folder number, radiopharmaceutical used and type of scan of patients examined with a new Siemens T6 SPECT-CT between 02 April 2016 and 31 December 2013 were retrieved. The number of 99mTc-MDP bone scans was sufficient for a detailed analysis. The scans were re-processed and reported by the observer before he was given any clinical information. Whole body planar, whole body planar plus SPECT and whole body planar plus SPECT-CT images were assessed successively in three separate sessions at least 2 weeks apart. At each session, the certainties of detection, localisation and categorisation of each lesion were recorded.Results: A total of 539 lesions were seen on the whole body, SPECT and computed tomography (CT) images in 133 patients. The whole body images showed no lesions in 3 patients and 378 lesions in 130 patients. SPECT detected 122 additional lesions in 79 patients. Thirty-nine (12.2%) lesions were seen only on CT in 32 (24.1%) patients. For the 261 lesions seen on the planar images in the SPECT field of view, lesion detection was definite in 233 (89.3%), localisation definite in 151 (57.9%) and categorisation definite in 123 (47.1%) lesions. On the SPECT, definite lesion detection, localisation and categorisation were recorded, respectively, for 259 (99.2%), 228 (87.4%) and 176 (67.4%) of the 261 lesions. Lesion detection, localisation and categorisation certainties were definite for 100%, 99.1% and 94.7% of the SPECT-CT lesions, respectively.Conclusion: SPECT markedly improves lesion detection and localisation, and CT enhances lesion categorisation.

Understanding the Group Size Effect in Electronic Brainstorming

A number of studies on electronic brainstorming have found that large electronic groups can facilitate the number of ideas generated relative to control groups of similar numbers of solitary performers (nominal groups). Thus far there is no clear evidence for the basis of this facilitative effect. The most likely explanation is that group members benefit from exposure to the wide range of ideas in large groups. Since most electronic brainstorming studies appear to divide the presented ideas into subfolders to avoid overloading participants with too many ideas, this practice may be important for demonstration of a benefit of exposure to a large number of ideas. The present study was designed to assess the role of number of ideas and number of folders on individual idea generation and to eliminate some alternative interpretations for the group size effect. Participants performed an idea generation task on computers while being exposed to either no ideas, 28 ideas, or 112 ideas. The 28 and 112 ideas were presented in either one, four, or eight folders. The results indicated that only the number of ideas factor was important for facilitating idea generation.

Comparison of Naïve bayes classifier with back propagation neural network classifier based on f - folds feature extraction algorithm for ball bearing fault diagnostic system

This paper is intended to compare the Naive bayes classifier for ball bearing fault diagnostic system with the back propagation neural network based on the f-folds feature extraction algorithm. The f-folds feature extraction algorithm has been used with different number of folders and clusters. The two classifiers have shown similar classification accuracies. The Naive bayes classifier has not shown any case of false negative or false positive classification. However, the back propagation neural network classifier has shown many cases of false positive and false negative classifications. Key words: Neural network classifier, Naive bayes classifier, diagnostic system, engineering materials.

Improving the performance of Naive Bayes multinomial in e-mail foldering by introducing distribution-based balance of datasets

E-mail foldering or e-mail classification into user predefined folders can be viewed as a text classification/categorization problem. However, it has some intrinsic properties that make it more difficult to deal with, mainly the large cardinality of the class variable (i.e. the number of folders), the different number of e-mails per class state and the fact that this is a dynamic problem, in the sense that e-mails arrive in our mail-folders following a time-line. Perhaps because of these problems, standard text-oriented classifiers such as Naive Bayes Multinomial do no obtain a good accuracy when applied to e-mail corpora. In this paper, we identify the imbalance among classes/folders as the main problem, and propose a new method based on learning and sampling probability distributions. Our experiments over a standard corpus (ENRON) with seven datasets (e-mail users) show that the results obtained by Naive Bayes Multinomial significantly improve when applying the balancing algorithm first. For the sake of completeness in our experimental study we also compare this with another standard balancing method (SMOTE) and classifiers.

An audit on the reporting of critical results in a tertiary institute

Critical result reporting is a requirement for accreditation by accreditation bodies worldwide. Accurate, prompt communication of results to the clinician by the laboratory is of extreme importance. Repeating of the critical result by the recipient has been used as a means to improve the accuracy of notification. Our objective was to assess the accuracy of notification of critical chemical pathology laboratory results telephoned out to clinicians/clinical areas. We hypothesize that read-back of telephoned critical laboratory results by the recipient may improve the accuracy of the notification. This was a prospective study, where all critical results telephoned by chemical pathologists and registrars at Tygerberg Hospital were monitored for one month. The recipient was required to repeat the result (patient name, folder number and test results). Any error, as well as the designation of the recipient was logged. Of 472 outgoing telephone calls, 51 errors were detected (error rate 10.8%). Most errors were made when recording the folder number (64.7%), with incorrect patient name being the lowest (5.9%). Calls to the clinicians had the highest error rate (20%), most of them being the omission of recording folder numbers. Our audit highlights the potential errors during the post-analytical phase of laboratory testing. The importance of critical result reporting is still poorly recognized in South Africa. Implementation of a uniform accredited practice for communication of critical results can reduce error and improve patient safety.

An 8-b 100-MSample/s CMOS pipelined folding ADC

Although cascading reduces the number of folders used in folding analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), it demands wider bandwidth. The pipelining scheme proposed in this work greatly alleviates the wide bandwidth requirement of the folding amplifier. The pipelining is implemented with simple differential-pair folders. The key idea is to use odd multiples of folders with distributed interstage track/holds cooperatively with an algorithm for coding and digital error correction for the nonbinary system. The pipelined folding ADC prototyped using 0.5-/spl mu/m CMOS exhibits a differential nonlinearity (DNL) of /spl plusmn/0.4 LSB and an integral nonlinearity (INL) of /spl plusmn/1.3 LSB at 100 MSample/s. The chip occupies 1.4 mm/spl times/1.2 mm in active area and consumes 165 mW at 5 V.

A plea to curators: remember substrata

Fungal curatorial practices are quite similar all over the world. Desperately we try to file every specimen under the correct name or at least the most likely name. As long as we work with groups familiar to us, this filing system works well. Specimens are filed under names or aliases, likely to facilitate their rediscovery by a materialhungry taxonomist, and the fungal collection looks neat. The only bothersome lapse is a small number of folders lurking under Fungi indet. What does this neatness cost us? Field researchers knowing the fate awaiting totally unknown material seldom actively collect fungal groups where a long laborious process is required merely to append a generic name to a specimen. Consequently we explore nature, but we leave part of it unstudied because of curatorial filing problems! If somehow an unknown specimen has penetrated our prejudiced defences, it is frequently consigned to oblivion when a wild guess as to the possible genus is made. This is particularly true in ascomycetous (sexual and asexual) fungi where no one can hope to master the vast number of orders, families or genera. To put it crudely: snakes are filed as giraffes and the material remains essentially useless. No scientist, writing for material on loan, is able to fancy all the names under which the material crucial to his research might possibly be hidden. Thus, mycologists respond, illogically, by either leaving the unknown in nature or misfiling it. The costs in vain research time, when fungal material is consigned to oblivion, can be high. Filing inaccuracies may deprive a monographer of material on a global scale. As a rule, a request for material from some ascomycetous genus yields the predictable result: no material from the exotical herbaria strategically situated but plenty of specimens from areas around large, well-known herbaria. Success in receiving peripheral collections on loan hinges on whether an expedition by experts has ever visited a given remote area. Local herbaria all over the world could, of course, collect excellent material, had they only a mycologist. But with no mycologist on the staff, no fungi are collected because they cannot be accurately filed. Yet many local herbaria could serve the mycological community even without a mycologist on their staff. Usually curatorial expertise at these herbaria is focused on local vascular plants. From a mycological point of view that can be already most significant. A professional botanist recognizes when dead plant parts or wood bear fungi; in fact, senescent or dead plants almost always contain fungi. Nonetheless the practice is to wait for a mycologist to visit an area before any fungi are collected there. This means that we have become dependent on material collected during short expeditions. Furthermore, the expert collects just one or a few groups. Tunnel vision results: discomycetologists leave all anamorphs in the field while pyrenomycetologists discard all that is not black, because the experts save their precious time for their own particular group. Yet the local herbarium staffbeing there throughout the year could make a substrate-based collection at relatively low cost. Such a collec-

The Mongoloid Baby, Children's Bureau Folder Number 50, Washington, D.C., U. S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, Social Security Administration, Children's Bureau; 1960, 20 pp

To read, inside the cover of this small handbook, the list of other Children's Bureau publications on handicapped children, creates a depressing sense of the burdens afflicting so many children and parents. Although one may begin reading these 20 pages on the mongoloid baby with sadness for the thousands of unknown mothers and fathers who must have read them, one continues with increasing admiration for the anonymous author's relatively unemotional and wise presentation of so much information.
