Using R Programming for Somatoploting

Introduction: Anthropometry is a technique employed to evaluate body dimensions and ratios by examining body length, width, circumference, and skinfold thickness. It is cost-effective, uncomplicated, and easily transportable, and it may be used in diverse industries. Somatotyping is a primary method used to classify the human physique based on three main components: endomorphy, mesomorphy, and ectomorphy. Heath and Carter established and modified the standards of somatotype, which continue to be employed for global measurements. Several software tools have been created for somatoploting, including SAS/GRAPH, Houcine, Orhan, and machine-learning models. Nevertheless, most of these tools are not open-source, resulting in laborious manual enumeration and hindering the accurate representation of differences among groups. A functional, open-source, precise tool is required to categorise somatotypes of extensive sample sizes and illustrate their differences. Method: R programming is a powerful and versatile programme language, particularly popular in statistical computing and graphics. It is widely used in various fields, like biostatistics, bioinformatics, and financial market analysis. R incorporates original programming concepts like object-oriented programming, which users can use transparently. This paper introduces how to use R programming as a tool for somatoploting, introduces the code for somatoploting, inserts x and y data, and executes the program to get a somatochart. It uses anthropometric data of 34 school-going students collected in Shindikurbet, Karnataka, aged between 10 and 12 years, collected through ISAK protocol guidelines to develop somatotypes and further plot them. Result: The paper holistically demonstrates using R programming to plot somatotypes in a 2-D Somatochart. Using this process, the reader can develop high-quality somatocharts in image or PDF formats. Conclusion: This study explores using R programming, an open-source software, for somatoploting and generating somatocharts. This method aids in understanding complex information, fact-explaining, and guiding action in various fields. It offers accessible data processing, analysis, and presentation, making implementing and saving budgets for students, researchers, and institutions easy. Further research could be conducted to make the code easier to use in Excel sheets or mobile applications.

Difficulties in Accessing the List and Full Text of the Defended PhD Theses from Medical Schools: a Retrospective Case Study from Croatia.

To conduct scientometric studies on PhD ("Doctor of Philosophy") theses (i.e., doctoral theses), researchers should be able to access the theses. We aimed to explore how to obtain a list and full text of the defended PhD theses from medical schools in Croatia over 30 years (from the beginning of 1992 to the end of 2021). We tried to obtain information from the Croatian Bureau of Statistics, the National and University Library in Zagreb (NSK), universities, medical schools and online repositories. We could not find a single list (source) of all PhD theses. Based on 4 different sources (website of the University of Zagreb and Medical School in Rijeka; school administrator from Split; library catalog from Osijek), we gathered information that from the beginning of 1992 to the end of 2021, there were 2955 PhD theses defended at medical schools in Croatia - 357 in Osijek, 550 in Rijeka, 337 in Split and 1711 in Zagreb. In May 2022, the online Croatian Digital Dissertations Repository contained 631 (22%) of full-text theses in Portable Document Format (PDF). University of Zagreb School of Medicine has its own repository that holds the full text of 834 (49%) of their PhD theses. One of the three PhD programs of the University of Split School of Medicine, namely Translational Research in Biomedicine (TRIBE), published full texts of all PhD theses defended at that program on its website. NSK held 2650 (90%) of the theses in a printed version. It was extremely challenging to access the list and full texts of doctoral theses defended in Croatia. Making PhD theses publicly available would ensure transparency and enable analyses that should improve scientific policy.

Patient Education Materials for Immobilisation Masks in Radiation Therapy for Adult Head and Neck Cancer Patients: A Scoping Review.

Immobilisation masks (IMs) are used for people with head and neck cancer (HNC) undergoing radiation therapy (RT) treatment to ensure accuracy and reproducibility between treatments. Claustrophobia-related mask anxiety in HNC patients is common and can compromise treatment due to patient distress. This scoping review aimed to describe the content of publicly available Patient Education Materials (PEMs) for people with HNC undergoing RT. Three search engines (Bing, Yahoo, and Google) were systematically searched using standard terms. PEMs in audio-visual or written formats were eligible for inclusion if the target readership was adults with HNC and included content on IMs for RT. Content was appraised using the Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool for Printable and Audio-Visual Materials to assess understandability and actionability. In total, 304 PEMs were identified of which 20 met the inclusion criteria. Sixteen PEMs were webpages, three were PDF format, and one was a standalone video. The understandability and actionability of PEMs ranged between 47 to 100% and 0 to 80%, respectively. PEMs authored by Foundations/Organisations scored higher in understandability (80-100%) and were more likely to discuss mask anxiety coping strategies. In comparison, News sites and IM manufacturers published PEMs with the lowest understandability scores (20-80%). The significant variations in the quality of IM PEMs identified suggest that some sources may be more effective at informing patients about IMs. Although multiple aspects of the PEMs were consistent across the reviewed materials, many PEMs lacked information, and a stronger focus on understandability and actionability is required.

A dense micro-electromechanical system (MEMS)-based seismic network in populated areas: rapid estimation of exposure maps in Trentino (NE Italy)

Abstract. The micro-electromechanical system (MEMS)-based seismic network of Trentino (NE Italy) consists of 73 low-cost accelerometers installed close to inhabited areas. These sensors have a suitable sensitivity to detect moderate-to-strong earthquakes but are able to record even weaker seismicity. The densely distributed peak ground acceleration values recorded by MEMS and other types of stations are integrated within the existing seismic monitoring procedure in order to automatically obtain a complete set of strong motion parameters a few minutes after the origin time. The exposure of the resident population and critical buildings is estimated by quantifying the different levels of shaking, which is expressed according to the Mercalli–Cancani–Sieberg intensity scale. These types of results, summarized in synthetic portable document format (PDF), can be useful for civil protection purposes to evaluate the state of emergency after a strong earthquake in a timely manner and to choose how and where to activate first aid measures and targeted structural monitoring.

SGLT2 Inhibitors- The New Standard of Care for Cardiovascular, Renal and Metabolic Protection in Type 2 Diabetes: A Narrative Review.

A substantial evidence base supports the use of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This class of medicines has demonstrated important benefits that extend beyond glucose-lowering efficacy to protective mechanisms capable of slowing or preventing the onset of long-term cardiovascular, renal and metabolic (CVRM) complications, making their use highly applicable for organ protection and the maintenance of long-term health outcomes. SGLT2is have shown cost-effectiveness in T2DM management and economic savings over other glucose-lowering therapies due to reduced incidence of cardiovascular and renal events. National and international guidelines advocate SGLT2i use early in the T2DM management pathway, based upon a plethora of supporting data from large-scale cardiovascular outcome trials, renal outcomes trials and real-world studies. While most people with T2DM would benefit from CVRM protection through SGLT2i use, prescribing hesitancy remains, potentially due to confusion concerning their place in the complex therapeutic paradigm, variation in licensed indications or safety perceptions/misunderstandings associated with historical data that have since been superseded by robust clinical evidence and long-term pharmacovigilance reporting. This latest narrative review developed by the Improving Diabetes Steering Committee (IDSC) outlines the place of SGLT2is within current evidence-informed guidelines, examines their potential as the standard of care for the majority of newly diagnosed people with T2DM and sets into context the perceived risks and proven advantages of SGLT2is in terms of sustained health outcomes. The authors discuss the cost-effectiveness case for SGLT2is and provide user-friendly tools to support healthcare professionals in the correct application of these medicines in T2DM management. The previously published IDSC SGLT2i Prescribing Tool for T2DM Management has undergone updates and reformatting and is now available as a Decision Tool in an interactive pdf format as well as an abbreviated printable A4 poster/wall chart.

Against "silent" retractions in neuroscience.

When an academic paper is published in a journal that assigns a digital object identifier (DOI) to papers, this is a de facto fait accompli. Corrections or retractions are supposed to follow a specific protocol, especially in journals that claim to follow the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) guidelines. In this paper, we highlight a case of a new, fully open access neuroscience journal that claims to be COPE-compliant, yet has silently retracted two papers since all records, bibliometrics, and PDF files related to their existence have been deleted from the journal's website. Although this phenomenon does not seem to be common in the neurosciences, we consider that any opaque corrective measures in journals whose papers could be cited may negatively impact the wider neuroscience literature and community. Instead, we encourage transparency in retraction to promote truthfulness and trustworthiness.

SpectiCal: m/z Calibration of MS2 Peptide Spectra Using Known Low Mass Ions.

Most tandem mass spectrometry fragmentation spectra have small calibration errors that can lead to suboptimal interpretation and annotation. We developed SpectiCal, a software tool that can read mzML files from data-dependent acquisition proteomics experiments in parallel, compute m/z calibrations for each file prior to identification analysis based on known low-mass ions, and produce information about frequently observed peaks and their explanations. Using calibration coefficients, the data can be corrected to generate new calibrated mzML files. SpectiCal was tested using five public data sets, creating a table of commonly observed low-mass ions and their identifications. Information about the calibration and individual peaks is written in PDF and TSV files. This includes information for each peak, such as the number of runs in which it appears, the percentage of spectra in which it appears, and a plot of the aggregated region surrounding each peak. SpectiCal can be used to compute MS run calibrations, examine MS runs for artifacts that might hinder downstream analysis, and generate tables of detected low-mass ions for further analysis. SpectiCal is freely available at https://github.com/PlantProteomes/SpectiCal.

Implementasi Algoritma Arithmetic Coding Pada Aplikasi Kompresi File PDF

Currently, application users use information more and more commonly. However, there is a problem that is often encountered, namely the need for large data so that less storage space is needed. Apart from that, the small amount of storage space also affects the speed of sending data. One of the data that is often used is PDF format files. The solution to this problem is to compress the PDF file. Compression is a process of changing a collection of data into a form of code to save on data storage requirements so that the data used is not too large. The Arithemtic Coding algorithm is a data compression algorithm that can be used, by knowing the results of the compression ratio and redundancy process. In applying the Arithmetic Coding algorithm in this research, it can provide compression results which initially have a large size which can be compressed very well in PDF files and the compression results show a compression ratio of 2.15 while the Compression ratio is 46% and Redundancy 54% will be beneficial in sending and moving PDF files will be even easier
