Estudio de validación de los parámetros dinámicos de respuesta a fluidos, variación de volumen sistólico (VVS) y variación de presión de pulso (VPP),…
2021
Introducción En cirugía de resección pulmonar, se recomienda la fluidoterapia restrictiva debido al alto riesgo de lesión pulmonar aguda postresección atribuida al uso liberal de fluidos. Sin embargo, esta terapia puede dar lugar a hipoperfusión vascular y por tanto aumento de la morbimortalidad. La fluidoterapia intraoperatoria debe ser individualizada para cada paciente, ajustando el aporte o restricción de fluidos a fin de optimizar el gasto cardíaco y evitar lesiones en órganos vitales. La fluidoterapia guiada por objetivos permite realizar esta individualización de fluidos mediante el análisis de los parámetros VVS y VPP. El objetivo principal de este estudio es la validación de VVS y …
Estudio multidisciplinar de la Muerte Súbita e Inesperada del Lactante en la Comunidad Valenciana. 2006-2017. Estrategia de análisis y prevención
2020
El síndrome de la muerte súbita del lactante (SMSL) define la muerte súbita de un niño menor de un año de edad, que ocurre aparentemente durante el sueño y que permanece sin explicación después de la realización de una minuciosa investigación postmortem, que incluye la autopsia completa, la investigación de las circunstancias de la muerte y la revisión de la historia clínica. La etiopatogenia del SMSL se ha entendido a través de la hipótesis del triple riesgo. Las tasas de incidencia del SMSL, han ido descendiendo drásticamente situándose en la actualidad en 0,2 -0,5 por mil nacimientos vivos, manteniéndose estable en los últimos años. Los factores de riesgo relacionados con el sueño del la…
Depressive symptoms during adolescence: Do learning difficulties matter?
2011
To examine whether learning difficulties play a role in depressive symptoms, 658 Finnish adolescents were asked to complete scales for depression three times during the transition to post-comprehensive education. They also reported on their learning difficulties and feelings of inadequacy as a student. The results showed that learning difficulties prospectively predicted depressive symptoms. Moreover, the impact of learning difficulties was mediated via inadequacy as a student: learning difficulties predicted feelings of inadequacy as a student which, in turn, contributed to greater increases in depressive symptoms. Finally, gender moderated the association between learning difficulties an…
Surrogate-assisted evolutionary multiobjective shape optimization of an air intake ventilation system
2017
We tackle three different challenges in solving a real-world industrial problem: formulating the optimization problem, connecting different simulation tools and dealing with computationally expensive objective functions. The problem to be optimized is an air intake ventilation system of a tractor and consists of three computationally expensive objective functions. We describe the modeling of the system and its numerical evaluation with a commercial software. To obtain solutions in few function evaluations, a recently proposed surrogate-assisted evolutionary algorithm K-RVEA is applied. The diameters of four different outlets of the ventilation system are considered as decision variables. Fr…
Supporting Cyber Resilience with Semantic Wiki
2016
Cyber resilient organizations, their functions and computing infrastructures, should be tolerant towards rapid and unexpected changes in the environment. Information security is an organization-wide common mission; whose success strongly depends on efficient knowledge sharing. For this purpose, semantic wikis have proved their strength as a flexible collaboration and knowledge sharing platforms. However, there has not been notable academic research on how semantic wikis could be used as information security management platform in organizations for improved cyber resilience. In this paper, we propose to use semantic wiki as an agile information security management platform. More precisely, t…
Simultaneous optimization of harvest schedule and measurement strategy
2013
In many recent studies, the value of forest inventory information in the harvest scheduling has been examined. Usually only the profitability of measuring simultaneously all the stands in the area is examined. Yet, it may be more profitable to concentrate the measurement efforts to some subset of them. In this paper, the authors demonstrate that stochastic optimization can be used for defining the optimal measurement strategy simultaneously with the harvest decisions. The results show that without end-inventory constraints, it was most profitable to measure the stands that were just below the medium age. Measuring the oldest stands was not profitable at all. It turned out to be profitable t…
T9+HUD: Physical Keypad and HUD can Improve Driving Performance while Typing and Driving
2016
We introduce T9+HUD, a text entry method designed to decrease visual distraction while driving and typing. T9+HUD combines a physical 3x4 keypad on the steering wheel with a head-up-display (HUD) for projecting output on the windshield. Previous work suggests this may be a visually less demanding way to type while driving than the popular case which requires shifts of visual attention away from the road. We present a prototype design and report first results from a controlled evaluation in a driving simulator. While driving, the T9+HUD text entry rate was equal compared to a dashboard-mounted touchscreen device, but it reduced lane deviations by 70%. Furthermore, there was no significant di…

Spatially dynamic forest management to sustain biodiversity and economic returns.
2014
Production of marketed commodities and protection of biodiversity in natural systems often conflict and thus the continuously expanding human needs for more goods and benefits from global ecosystems urgently calls for strategies to resolve this conflict. In this paper, we addressed what is the potential of a forest landscape to simultaneously produce habitats for species and economic returns, and how the conflict between habitat availability and timber production varies among taxa. Secondly, we aimed at revealing an optimal combination of management regimes that maximizes habitat availability for given levels of economic returns. We used multi-objective optimization tools to analyze data fr…
Rehearsing to control depressive symptoms through a behavior change support system
2013
Depressive symptoms are generally coupled with distress and high treatment costs. We present our on-going research on a Web-based behavior change support system, which utilizes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as a rehearsal tool. We present a summarized account of the research setting, studied persuasive software features, and a brief account of initial data analysis. Our work presents implications on design interventions for mental well-being and human-computer interaction.
