Otolaryngological Manifestations of Tuberculosis: A Clinical Study.

The aim of this study was to increase awareness of the different presentations of head and neck tuberculosis (TB) and to discuss its diagnostic difficulties. A prospective study of patients who presented to us, at a tertiary referral hospital, primarily with TB of head and neck was done from September 2014 to August 2016. Patients were categarised into proper category of Anti Tuberculous Treatment (ATT) and were treated according to ATT regimen. All patients were followed up at 2months and 6months after starting ATT. A total of 170 patients presented with primary head and neck TB during the study period. Most of these (96%) had cervical lymphadenopathy, 5 patients had laryngeal TB, and there was 1 patient each of TB of middle ear. 102 were males, and 68 were females. 25.8% of cases had associated pulmonary TB. (1) Diagnosing TB requires a high index of suspicion. (2) Tuberculosis of the cervical lymph nodes is the commonest presentation followed by laryngeal TB. (3) Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a reliable and easy way to diagnose TB. However, newer diagnostic tests will increase the yield of positive cases and should be used whenever required. (4) In the larynx, the vocal cords were the commonest site affected and laryngeal TB need not be associated with lung TB or positive sputum always. (5) Patients who have TB of head and neck must be investigated to exclude pulmonary or systemic TB.

Le docétisme des christologies gnostiques revisité

Gnostic studies mainly depended on the Church Fathers' approach to heresies until the discovery of the Coptic Nag Hammadi codices in 1945. As we are slowly moving away from this patristic approach to Gnosticism, docetism is still defined as a tendency to regard Jesus' body as an appearance, and not as a real incarnate body. Irenaeus' refutation of all heresies presents the Valentinian and Basilidian Christologies as clearly docetist. A comparison of direct Valentinian sources such as theExtractsof Theodotus with Valentinian tractates from Nag Hammadi shows on the contrary that Valentinians had a clear notion of the incarnation. As for the Basilidians, theElenchosof Ps.-Hippolytus, theSecond Logos of the Great Sethand the CopticApocalypse of Petercan be used to demonstrate that docetism is not the proper category to interpret Basilidian Christology and Soteriology because the purification of the real body of the Saviour lies at the heart of that system.

The official method for olive oil sensory evaluation: An expository revision of certain sections of the method and a viable means for confirming the attribute intensities

BackgroundThe official European Union method for a sensory evaluation of virgin olive oils dates back to 1991. The sensory evaluation was included to classify the olive oil into the proper category. The necessity for well-trained tasters to serve on panels has promoted many olive oil-tasting schools in areas with an interest in this food. Scope and approachThe manner in which the method is used can be questionable. This paper indicates certain method features, such as determination of the group detection threshold (GDT), preparation of the taster selection (“selective trials”) with the proof for the related formula and a means to verify perception intensity, and underlines the ease in using the prescriptions. Key findings and conclusionsThe proof for the formula used to calculate the 12 attribute dilutions to select the panel taster candidates is provided, which begins with the Weber's Law. Furthermore, the 12 dilutions are related to preliminary work by the panel leader to determine the group detection threshold (GDT). Finally, to overcome the problem of verifying attribute intensity, a relationship between the intensity of the perception and the given score on the 10 cm line was proposed using a formula that considers the corresponding intensities of the two line ends. Simple dilution steps are then proposed to determine the “real” score.

Preventing database schema extraction by error message handling

Nowadays, a large volume of an organization׳s sensitive data is stored in databases making them attractive to attackers. The useful information attackers try to obtain in the preliminary steps, is the database structure or schema. One of the popular approaches to infer and extract the schema of a database is to analyze the returned error messages from its DBMS. In this paper, we propose a framework to handle and modify the error messages automatically in order to prevent schema revealing. To this aim, after identifying and introducing an appropriate set of categories of error messages, each error message that is returned from a DBMS is placed in a proper category. According to the policy specified for each category, corresponding rules are applied for removing/modifying/obfuscating the sensitive data in the error messages of that category before submitting them to the application. The general way proposed to determine the category of an error message is employing the keyword based categorization approach, which is 95% accurate for Microsoft SQL Server 2012.

Automatic Arabic text categorization: A comprehensive comparative study

Text categorization or classification (TC) is concerned with placing text documents in their proper category according to their contents. Owing to the various applications of TC and the large volume of text documents uploaded on the Internet daily, the need for such an automated method stems from the difficulty and tedium of performing such a process manually. The usefulness of TC is manifested in different fields and needs. For instance, the ability to automatically classify an article or an email into its right class (Arts, Economics, Politics, Sports, etc.) would be appreciated by individual users as well as companies. This paper is concerned with TC of Arabic articles. It contains a comparison of the five best known algorithms for TC. It also studies the effects of utilizing different Arabic stemmers (light and root-based stemmers) on the effectiveness of these classifiers. Furthermore, a comparison between different data mining software tools (Weka and RapidMiner) is presented. The results illustrate the good accuracy provided by the SVM classifier, especially when used with the light10 stemmer. This outcome can be used in future as a baseline to compare with other unexplored classifiers and Arabic stemmers.

IT project risk assessment of learning organizations by fuzzy set and systems

Purpose – IT projects carry high risk of failure due to the existence of great obstacles during the planning, application and development phase. The projects' risks are multi-dimensional, and they must be assessed by multi-attribute decision-making methods. The purpose of this article is to provide analytic tools to evaluate the learning organization's IT project risks under incomplete and vague information. It was also aimed to place the risk in a proper category and predict the level of it in advance to develop strategies to counteract the high-risk factors. Design/methodology/approach – In this study, three mutual approaches were used to analyze the organizations IT applications. These are enterprise analysis for determination of information requirements of organization, payback method for IT project financial analysis and risk assessment using fuzzy sets and systems. The developed fuzzy model is an expert system which can predict the category of risk for IT projects in learning organizations. Findings – This study revealed that the greatest obstacles to IT project success were the lack of organizational learning, resistance to change, etc. User involvement limitation was found to be also one of the common reasons of IT project failure. The information sharing policy was determined to increase productivity of employees in offices and to decide the creators and the users of knowledge. Learning is a continuous process for organizational transformation. Individual and organizational learning were searched to minimize the level of risks factors and learning culture. IT project risks were categorized properly using fuzzy sets and systems to reduce or even eliminate high risks. Originality/value – The paper is original and gives the first such work for industry.

Quantum objects in a sheaf framework

We consider some generalization of the theory of quantum states and demonstrate that the consideration of quantum states as sheaves can provide, in principle, more deep understanding of some well-known phenomena. The key ingredients of the proposed construction are the families of sections of sheaves with values in the proper category of the functional realizations of infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces with special (multiscale) filtrations decomposed into the (entangled) orbits generated by actions/representations of internal hidden symmetries. In such a way, we open a possibility for the exact description and reinterpretation of a lot of quantum phenomena.

Network performance analysis and manuever model for overtaking assistant service using wave

We present network requirements for an overtaking assistant service using wireless access in vehicular environment (WAVE). Currently, DNPW has been proposed as a representative overtaking assistant service with vehicle-tovehicle (V2V) communication. In order to analyze its network performance, we construct a maneuver model for an overtaking system. According to this model, we configured a scenario for network simulation based on the 802.11p WAVE standard. The results confirm that a radio range for overtaking needs only a single hop without routing methods. Moreover, we propose an additional safe distance for the communication delay generated by an increase in the numbers of neighboring vehicles. And for high priority activity of safety services, we present a proper access category (AC) of enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA). These analysis results should be tested considered in real safety service systems that use V2V communication.

Construction projects selection and risk assessment by fuzzy AHP and fuzzy TOPSIS methodologies

Construction projects are initiated in dynamic environment which result in circumstances of high uncertainty and risks due to accumulation of many interrelated parameters. The purpose of this study is to use novel analytic tools to evaluate the construction projects and their overall risks under incomplete and uncertain situations. It was also aimed to place the risk in a proper category and predict the level of it in advance to develop strategies and counteract the high-risk factors. The study covers identifying the key risk criteria of construction projects at King Abdulaziz University (KAU), and assessing the criteria by the integrated hybrid methodologies.The proposed hybrid methodologies were initiated with a survey for data collection. The relative importance index (RII) method was applied to prioritize the project risks based on the data obtained. The construction projects were then categorized by fuzzy AHP and fuzzy TOPSIS methodologies. Fuzzy AHP (FAHP) was used to create favorable weights for fuzzy linguistic variable of construction projects overall risk. The fuzzy TOPSIS method is very suitable for solving group decision making problems under the fuzzy environment. It attempted to incorporate vital qualitative attributes in performance analysis of construction projects and transformed the qualitative data into equivalent quantitative measures. Thirty construction projects were studied with respect to five main criteria that are the time, cost, quality, safety and environment sustainability. The results showed that these novel methodologies are able to assess the overall risks of construction projects, select the project that has the lowest risk with the contribution of relative importance index. This approach will have potential applications in the future.
