    Leveraging Knowledge Graphs for Orphan Entity Allocation in Resume Processing

    Full text link
    Significant challenges are posed in talent acquisition and recruitment by processing and analyzing unstructured data, particularly resumes. This research presents a novel approach for orphan entity allocation in resume processing using knowledge graphs. Techniques of association mining, concept extraction, external knowledge linking, named entity recognition, and knowledge graph construction are integrated into our pipeline. By leveraging these techniques, the aim is to automate and enhance the efficiency of the job screening process by successfully bucketing orphan entities within resumes. This allows for more effective matching between candidates and job positions, streamlining the resume screening process, and enhancing the accuracy of candidate-job matching. The approach's exceptional effectiveness and resilience are highlighted through extensive experimentation and evaluation, ensuring that alternative measures can be relied upon for seamless processing and orphan entity allocation in case of any component failure. The capabilities of knowledge graphs in generating valuable insights through intelligent information extraction and representation, specifically in the domain of categorizing orphan entities, are highlighted by the results of our research.Comment: In Proceedings of the 2023 IEEE International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Engineering and Technology (IICAIET

    Angina Pectoris and Ambulatory Myocardial Ischaemia in the General Population

    Since the original population study of angina pectoris which commenced in Framingham in 1949, there has been no contemporary study of this common disease in relation to incidence, clinical characteristic and prognosis. The overall objective of this study was to investigate new cases of angina in the population presenting for the first time with this symptom of coronary disease. Specifically the objectives were to measure the clinical incidence of angina and to assess the patients' clinical characteristics with particular reference to ambulatory and exercise electrocardiography and the relationship of these physiological variables to prognosis. A random sample of 17 general practices was drawn from within the boundary of the city of Southampton and all 117 general practitioners agreed to refer every new patient ? 70 years with no previous CHD presenting for the first time with suspected angina to an open access chest pain service. Of 110 consecutive patients presenting with typical angina, 70 were male and 40 female. The crude annual incidence rate (95 % confidence interval) of angina pectoris in this representative population sample was 0.83 (0.66, 1.0) per thousand population aged 31-70 years; for men and women the rates were 1.13 (0.85, 1.40) and 0.53 (0.33, 0.72) respectively. The incidence of angina pectoris in the United Kingdom is estimated from this study to be at least 22,6(X) patients per annum. Ninety-six of 110 angina patients and 95 age, sex and practice matched asymptomatic healthy controls underwent 24 hour ambulatory ECG monitoring prior to antianginal therapy. All tapes were analysed blind. Ischaemic ST segment depression, defined as ≥ 1mm horizontal/downsloping shift from baseline at J-l-80 msec lasting > 1 min, was prevalent in 34 of 64 (53%) men with angina vs 7 of 59 (12%) male controls, and in 16 of 32 (50%) women with angina vs 2 of 36 (6%) controls. In logistic regression analysis, serum cholesterol (p = 0.02) and exercise ischaemia (p = 0.003) were independently associated with the presence of ambulatory ischaemia in men with angina, but only the latter was significant in women; this may reflect a different pathophysiological basis for ambulatory ischaemia in women. At a median follow-up of 15.8 (range 7-30) months, angina remitted spontaneously in 12 (11%) patients, 20 (18%) patients underwent revascularisation, 8 (8%) sustained a non-fatal myocardial infarction, and 4 (4%) died. In Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, there was no significant difference in event-free survival from coronary angioplasty, coronary artery bypass grafting, myocardial infarction or death between patients with and without ambulatory ischaemia (66% vs 72%, p=NS). This is the first contemporary population study of new patients with angina pectoris since the advent of widespread non invasive electrocardiographic assessment, coronary arteriography and revascularisation. Angina is common and while in the majority of patients the resting electrocardiogram is normal at presentation, exercise induced ischaemia (≥1mm) is found in 64% (42 of 66) of men and in 57% (21 of 37) of women. Ambulatory ischaemia is present in over half of new patients presenting with angina, but appears to be of no prognostic value. The prognosis of incident angina despite appropriate cardiological assessment and management is not benign. The study thus raises an important question which should be answered by a randomised controlled trial - does early cardiological assessment and coronary revascularisation reduce the morbidity and mortality of incident angina pectoris

    Renal arteriovenous malformation presenting with massive hematuria

    AbstractRenal arteriovenous malformations are abnormal communications between the intrarenal arterial and venous systems. They are a rare cause of hematuria. Color Doppler ultrasonography, multislice CT angiography, and DSA are important tools for making the diagnosis. We describe the case of a 62-year-old man with renal arteriovenous malformation who presented with gross hematuria

    Outcome analysis of percutaneous tenotomy in chronic lateral epicondylitis elbow of greater than 6 months duration

    Background: Lateral epicondylitis elbow is a self-limiting condition with an unclear pathology. Conservative therapy is treatment of choice in lateral epicondylitis elbow but chronic lateral epicondylitis elbow (>6 month) is a condition difficult to treat. Percutaneous extensor tendon release can be a viable treatment option in such conditions.Methods: This prospective study was conducted in 2016 to 2017 at the Department of Orthopaedics Surgery in a tertiary care institute. 30 patients were treated by percutaneous tenotomy.  The outcome was assessed at follow ups using numerical rating scale (NRS), disabilities of the arm, shoulder, and hand questionnaire (DASH) and Oxford scores.Results: 30 elbows were included in this study. They were managed by percutaneous method (PT; n=30). The mean age of patients was 41.74 years (range 26-67 years). Females were affected more than males in both groups (3:1).    Dominant limb was involved in 86% of patients.73% of females were house wives exposed to household chores and manual activities while 40% of males were manual workers.  Mean hospital stay was 35 minutes (range 20-43 minutes). Patients were followed up at 3 month and 6 month post intervention. NRS, DASH, Oxford score assessment showed that all the scores were significantly decreased (p<0.05) at 3 month and 6 month in patients undergoing percutaneous tenotomy. Conclusions: Lateral epicondylitis >6 month duration is difficult to treat. Percutaneous tenotomy is effective modality of treatment in such conditions

    Extradural hematoma (EDH) is considered to be a rare in head trauma associated with arrested hydrocephalus, and represents a serious pathology from which complete recovery can be expected if urgent intervention done in time. In this case report, the authors present an arrested hydrocephalus patient who was apparently asymptomatic at the time of hospital admission with a mild head injury and developed rapidly increasing size of EDH. The value of repeated early Computed tomography (CT) scan and the pathogenesis of rapidly increasing size of EDH in arrested hydrocephalic patient are discussed

    A rare case of post traumatic isolated bilateral abducens nerve palsy

    Although unilateral abducens nerve palsy has been reported to be as high as 1% to 2.7% of traumatic brain injury, bilateral abducens nerve palsy following injury is extremely rare. In this report, we present the case of a patient who developed isolated bilateral abducens nerve palsy following minor head injury. He had a Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) of 15 points. Computed tomography (CT) images & Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) brain demonstrated no intracranial lesion. Herein, we discuss the possible mechanisms of bilateral abducens nerve palsy and its management
