Bakgrund Det finns flera svårigheter vid en överförflyttning från intensivvårdsavdelning till en vårdavdelning. En av dessa är hur all den vård som utförts på intensivvårdsavdelningen ska sammanfattas till en relevant, överblickbar omvårdnadsepikris. Syfte och frågeställning Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka om sjuksköterskor som vårdar traumapatienter anser att omvårdnadsepikrisen innehåller den information som krävs för att omvårdnadens mål ska kunna uppnås. Utöver detta syftar studien till att undersöka vilken information  sjuksköterskorna anser att omvårdnadsepikrisen ska innehålla. Vidare undersöks huruvida åsikterna skiljer sig åt mellan de båda grupperna och vad de tror om införandet av en standardiserad omvårdnadsepikrismall för traumapatienter. Metod Uppsatsen har designen av en kvantitativ studie med ett stratifierat strategiskt urval. Sammanlagt 48 sjuksköterskor har deltagit i studien. Tjugotvå stycken från ett regionsjukhus och 26 stycken från ett länssjukhus. Enkäten bestod av nio frågor där sjuksköterskorna fick bland annat skatta hur pass hur ofta de skrev viss information och vilka av VIPS- sökord de ansåg mest relevanta för omvårdnadsepikrisen. Resultat Det finns skillnader i hur omvårdnadsepikrisen uppfattas av de olika urvalsgrupperna. Regionssjukhusgruppen ansåg att de fick med all relevant information när de sammanställde omvårdnadsepikrisen medan länssjukhusgruppen ansåg att informationen var bristfällig. Vidare visade studien att de båda urvalsgrupperna skattade likvärdigt på flertalet sökord. Slutsats Båda urvalsgrupperna var i stort överrens om vilka VIPS- sökord omvårdnadsepikrisen bör innehålla. Information som ofta saknades var rekommenderade åtgärder. / Background There are numerous difficulties associated with transferring a patient from an intensive care unit to a regular ward. One of these difficulties regards the patient discharge summaries (PDS). It is difficult to summarize a relevant PDS for patients that have been treated at an intensive care unit. Objective This study’s objective is to describe what information registered nurses (RN) that care for, or receives trauma patients’ sees as relevant to include in the PDS for trauma patients. Method The study was made with a quantitative method, using a stratified strategic sample. Forty-eight RNs participated, divided into two study groups (group 1 & 2). 22 RNs were sampled from a regional hospital and 26 RNs were sampled from a county hospital. The RNs assessed how frequent they documented specific information. They also assessed how important they felt specific keywords from the VIPS- documentation tool were to compile a relevant PDS. The two groups’ assessments were then compared. Results Differences were found in how the two groups perceived the amount of information in the PDS. Group 1 felt that they wrote enough information in the patient discharge summary. Group 2 felt that the information in the PDS was insufficient. The study also showed that the two groups assesses similarly on most of the VIPS- keywords Conclusion Both groups mostly agreed on what the PDS should contain. Both groups felt that information about recommended measures was missing.

Gene set enrichment analysis aims to discover sets of genes, such as biological pathways or protein complexes, which may show moderate but coordinated differentiation across experimental conditions. The existing gene set enrichment approaches utilize single gene statistic as a measure of differentiation for individual genes. These approaches do not utilize any inter-gene correlations, but it has been known that genes in a pathway often interact with each other. Motivated by the need for taking gene dependence into account, we propose a novel gene set enrichment algorithm, where the gene-gene correlation is addressed via a gene-pair representation strategy. Relying on an appropriately defined gene pair statistic, the gene set statistic is formulated using a competitive null hypothesis. Extensive simulation studies show that our proposed approach can correctly control the type I error (false positive rate), and retain good statistical power for detecting true differential expression. The new method is also applied to analyze several gene expression datasets. / October 2016

With an increasing amount of textual information available there is also an increased need to make this information more accessible. Our paper describes a modified TextRank model and investigates the different methods available to use automatic text summarization as a means for summary creation of swedish news articles. To evaluate our model we focused on intrinsic evaluation methods, in part through content evaluation in the form of of measuring referential clarity and non-redundancy, and in part by text quality evaluation measures, in the form of keyword retention and ROUGE evaluation. The results acquired indicate that stemming and improved stop word capabilities can have a positive effect on the ROUGE scores. The addition of redundancy checks also seems to have a positive effect on avoiding repetition of information. Keyword retention decreased somewhat, however. Lastly all methods had some trouble with dangling anaphora, showing a need for further work within anaphora resolution.

Se o arquiteto Le Corbusier é extensivamente lido e pensado na sua relação com o maquinismo, ou seja, na sua ligação com a tecnologia da era mecânica, na obra do Pavilhão Philips (1958) - designada como Poème Electronique por Corbusier - aparece de maneira clara e objetiva, o pensamento do arquiteto acerca dos meios da era elétrica. A singularidade dessa experiência eletrônica e colaborativa ainda pouco investigada - o que nos comprova a reduzida bibliografia acerca do Pavilhão Philips - motivou o interesse em desenvolver um estudo sobre essa obra no mestrado. Acreditamos que ao desdobrá-la em seus mais variados aspectos - arquitetônico, sonoro e cinematográfico - chegaremos a uma idéia de como as novas tecnologias podem ter informado novidade na maneira de pensar e fazer arquitetura em Le Corbusier. / If the architect Le Corbusier is widely read and thought in its relationship with the machinery , that is, its connection with the mechanical age technology, the Philips Pavilion work (1958 ) - designated as Poème Electronique by Corbusier - appears clearly and objective , the architect of thinking about the means of the electric age . The uniqueness of this electronic and collaborative experience still poorly investigated - which proves the reduced bibliography about the Philips Pavilion - motivated the interest in developing a study on this work in the Masters . We believe that by deploying it in its various aspects - architectural, sound and film - will get an idea of how new technologies may have provided new in the way of thinking and making architecture Le Corbusier.

Valendo-se de objetivos como promover e cumprir com as normas, princípios e direitos fundamentais no trabalho, criar oportunidades dignas para homens e mulheres, ampliar a proteção social de modo eficaz e fortalecer o tripartismo e o diálogo social. No espectro da expansão de postos de trabalho formal no Brasil nos últimos anos – 10,3 milhões entre 2005 e 2015, segundo dados do CAGED – nada se revela sobre quais condições os trabalhadores se encontram nas atividades econômicas que desempenham. Sobretudo em regiões metropolitanas, onde há pujante geração de riqueza produtiva. Ademais, fora da “nata” do emprego formal, encontram-se trabalhadores em situação precária, o que reforça a necessidade de um indicativo dos ares que envolvem o emprego digno. Dessa maneira, o objetivo geral desta dissertação é verificar a qualidade do trabalho entre as regiões metropolitanas. O termo qualidade está circunscrito ao conceito de trabalho decente da OIT, que apesar de ser amplo, apresenta eixos e dimensões capazes de incluir aspectos de um emprego digno. Este trabalho contempla o desenvolvimento de um índice-síntese de trabalho decente, com metodologia semelhante ao IDH, mas com adaptações necessárias. Utilizaram-se os microdados da PNAD do IBGE dos anos de 2005 e 2014 em nove principais metrópoles de diferentes regiões do país. O índice-síntese de trabalho decente final é composto por três índices calculados de acordo com os pilares do conceito (Emprego, Direitos e Princípios fundamentais no trabalho e Segurança Social + Diálogo Social). Para cada pilar, há uma ou mais dimensões. A composição do índice é dada, obviamente, por um conjunto de indicadores (ou variáveis). Em resumo, em termos práticos, entende-se que o índice-síntese final tem valor qualitativo. O estudo mostrou, comparativamente e dentro das limitações inerentes a qualquer índice, padrões de qualidade (de 0 a 1) do trabalho entre as regiões metropolitanas em dois anos (2005 e 2014). Vale dizer que o padrão de qualidade “alta” do trabalho, diagnosticada pelos resultados do índice em algumas metrópoles, traduz-se em nível de comparação com relação às demais regiões do grupo estudado. Ou seja, obviamente, se reconhece o déficit de trabalho decente nacional, sem eximir a vulnerabilidade ocupacional e precarização do mercado de trabalho. Não houve pretensões de inferir pelos resultados que a qualidade das condições laborais seja elevada. Mas apenas comparar, dentro do recorte geográfico escolhido, em quais metrópoles os indicadores se manifestaram em melhor ou pior situação, traduzida por meio de um índice sintético. Pode-se constatar pelos resultados, que a qualidade do emprego digno, restrita ao conceito de trabalho decente da OIT, se alterou no grupo comparativamente para pior na Região Metropolitana de São Paulo (de alta para média) e na Região Metropolitana de Porto Alegre (de muito alta para alta). O movimento de melhora foi verificado na Região Metropolitana de Curitiba (de média para alta). Finalmente, o índice-síntese calculado revelou qualidade muito baixa nas seguintes metrópoles: Região Metropolitana de Belém, Região Metropolitana de Fortaleza, Região Metropolitana do Recife, Região Metropolitana de Salvador e Região Metropolitana do Rio de Janeiro. / Since the end of the 1990s, the ILO has been making efforts to promote the generation of decent work. Using such objectives as promoting and complying with fundamental labor standards, principles and rights, creating decent opportunities for men and women, enhancing social protection effectively and strengthening tripartism and social dialogue. In the spectrum of the expansion of formal jobs in Brazil in recent years - 10.3 million between 2005 and 2015, according to CAGED data - nothing is revealed about what conditions workers are in their economic activities. Especially in metropolitan regions, where there is a strong generation of productive wealth. In addition, outside the "cream" of formal employment, there are workers in a precarious situation, which reinforces the need for an indication of the air that involves decent employment. In this way, the general objective of this dissertation is to verify the quality of the work among the metropolitan regions. The term quality is confined to the concept of decent work of the ILO, which, although broad, presents axes and dimensions capable of including aspects of decent work. This work contemplates the development of a decent work synthesis index, with methodology similar to the HDI, but with necessary adaptations. The microdata of the IBGE PNAD of the years 2005 and 2014 were used in nine major metropolises of different regions of the country. The final decent work summary index is composed of three indices calculated according to the pillars of the concept (Employment, Rights and Fundamental Principles at Work and Social Security + Social Dialogue). For each pillar, there are one or more dimensions. The composition of the index is, of course, given by a set of indicators (or variables). In summary, in practical terms, it is understood that the final index-synthesis has a qualitative value. The study showed, comparatively and within the limitations inherent in any index, quality standards (from 0 to 1) of work between metropolitan regions in two years (2005 and 2014). It is worth mentioning that the "high" quality standard of work, diagnosed by the results of the index in some metropolises, translates into a level of comparison with the other regions of the studied group. That is, of course, the national decent work deficit is recognized, without exempting the occupational vulnerability and precariousness of the labor market. There was no pretense of inferring from the results that the quality of working conditions is high. But only to compare, within the chosen geographic cut, in which metropolis the indicators were manifested in better or worse situation, translated by means of a synthetic index. It can be seen from the results that the quality of decent employment, restricted to the concept of decent work of the ILO, has changed in the comparatively worse group in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo (from high to medium) and in the Metropolitan Region of Porto Alegre ( From very high to high). The improvement movement was verified in the Metropolitan Region of Curitiba (from medium to high). Finally, the calculated synthesis index showed very low quality in the following metropolises: Metropolitan Region of Belém, Metropolitan Region of Fortaleza, Metropolitan Region of Recife, Metropolitan Region of Salvador and Metropolitan Region of Rio de Janeiro.

O tema proposto para estudo gravitou em torno da pertinência de introdução de técnica de aperfeiçoamento do método estatal de solução de controvérsias, mediante o aprimoramento da tutela antecipada genericamente prevista em nosso sistema processual em conformidade com o artigo 273 do Código de Processo Civil. Assim, procurou-se demonstrar que, a partir das mesmas bases consolidadas para concessão do provimento antecipatório, pode-se também admitir sua função definidora do litígio entre as partes, dotando-o de características que vão além da esfera processual de produtor de efeitos práticos almejados pelo jurisdicionado em tutela final de mérito. Para o cumprimento desse desiderato, observa-se a necessidade de alterações de seus elementos estruturais instrumentalidade e provisoriendade, a conduzir a tutela antecipada para o rol dos provimentos sumários autônomos, tornando, assim, o contraditório pleno em atividade cognitiva completa apenas eventual, a depender de impulso processual da parte interessada e legitimada a fazê-lo. Por fim, analisou-se a intensidade da estabilidade do provimento antecipatório, com considerações que apontaram para sua capacidade de usufruir da imutabilidade decorrente da coisa julgada material. / The theme proposed for study gravitated toward the appropriateness of introducing technical improvement on the state method for dispute settlement, by improving the summary injunction generally provided in ourprocedural system in accordance with Article 273 of the Code of Civil Procedure. Thus, we sought to demonstrate that, from the sameconsolidated basis for granting anticipatory provision, one can alsoadmit its defining function of the dispute between the parties, giving itfeatures that go beyond the mere procedural practical effects targeted forprotection by the interested party. To fulfill this goal, there is the need for modification of its structural elements of instrumentality and temporariness, leading the summary injunction to the list of autonomous summaries provisions, thus rendering the full contradictory an onlyeventual cognitive activity, depending on a procedural impulse from the legitimized party. Finally, we analyzed the intensity of the stability ofanticipatory provision, with considerations that pointed to their ability tobenefit from the immutability of res judicata.

This study investigated postsecondary disability service providers' (DSP) perceived usefulness of an example of a well-developed SOP. This example SOP was included in a 22 question survey, administered electronically to DSPs who are members of the Association on Higher Education and Disability (AHEAD). The participants (n=298) were asked to rate the usefulness of the test scores, rationale for accommodation, history of use or success of accommodation, report writer's recommendations, and student input included in the example SOP for making accommodation decisions. ANOVAs were used to determine if the perceived usefulness of the parts of the Model SOP varied as a function of the DSPs' highest degree, disciplines or fields of study, training for the interpretation of disability documentation, and/or years of experience in postsecondary disability services. DSPs with less than five years of experience (M=1.85, SD = .87) found the report writer's recommendations more useful than DSPs with greater than 10 years of experience (M=2.24, SD = 1.02). DSPs with 5-10 years of experience did not differ significantly from either of the other groups. Additionally, statistical significance was approached (p = .085) suggesting that DSPs with doctorate degrees compared to DSPs with a master's degree or a bachelor's degree may find the history of use or success less useful for accommodation decisions. Overall, the average usefulness ratings for all DSP groupings for the identified parts of the SOP were in the extremely useful or very useful range. / School of Education; / School Psychology / PhD; / Dissertation;

Unconventional resources will play an important role in filling the gap between supply and demand for future world energy. In North America, the impact of unconventional resources on energy supplies is growing continuously. However, around the world they have yet to serve as a major contributor to the energy supply, partly due to the scarcity of information about the exploration and development technologies required to produce them. Basin analogy can be used to estimate the undiscovered petroleum potential in a target basin by finding a geological analog that has been explored enough that its resource potential is fully understood. In 2006, Singh developed a basin analog system BASIN (Basin Analog Systems INvestigation) in detail that could rapidly and consistently identify analogous reference basins for a target basin. My research focused on continuing that work, comprehensively improving the basin analog system in four areas: the basin analog method; the database; the software functionality; and the validation methods. The updated system compares basins in terms of probability distributions of geological parameters. It compensates for data that are sparse or that do not represent basin-level geological parameters, and it expands the system's ability to compare widely varying quantitative parameters. Because the updated BASIN database contains more geologic and petroleum systems information on reference (existing) basins, it identifies analog basins more accurately and efficiently. The updated BASIN software was developed by using component-based design and data visualization techniques that help users better manage large volumes of information to understand various data objects and their complicated relationships among various data objects. Validation of the improved BASIN software confirms its accuracy: if a basin selected as the target basin appears in the reference basin list with other basins, the target basin is 100% analogous only to itself. Furthermore, when a target basin is analyzed by both BASIN and PRISE (Petroleum Resources Investigation and Summary Evaluation) software, results of the improved BASIN closely matched the PRISE results, which provides important support for using BASIN and PRISE together to quantitatively estimate the resource potential in frontier basins.

When users are searching for documents, they must sift through a collection of potentially relevant documents assessing, categorizing and prioritizing them based on the current task at hand, a process we refer to as document triage. Since users' time is precious, as much information as possible should be presented to them to aid the process of document triage. This thesis presents a simple visualization and a set of features that can help users in identifying information of interest. As a part of this thesis, the System Layer of the Visual Knowledge Builder (VKB) was developed as a tab strip container. Each of the tabs presents a different type of information about Web Documents. The types of information currently included in VKB are: a summary of the Web Document, keywords based on users' interests provided by the Interest Profile Manager (IPM), popular keywords from a social bookmarking site, metadata about the Web Document, a list of outgoing links of the Web Document, and the history of the Web Document. We performed a heuristic evaluation to assess the usefulness of the new visualization and features. During the evaluation, participants were asked to rate the usefulness of each of the new web document features over a scale of 1 to 7, where a value of 1 indicated strong disagreement, and 7 indicated strong agreement. Our results indicate that the document summary, the keywords from IPM, popular tags, and the history of the Web Document are expected to be most useful during the process of document triage.
