An Adaptive Interface for Customer Transaction Assistant in Electronic Commerce
Personalized service and adaptive interface play important factors in electronic commerce. This work proposes an adaptive interface to for helping the customer transaction in electronic commerce. The adaptive interface collects the consumer behaviors by monitoring the customer operations, excluding unnecessary operations, and recognizing the behavior patterns. The interface uses the Bayesian belief network and the RBF neural networks to achieve the above tasks. The interface then evaluates knowledge and skill proficiency according to the customer behavior patterns. Finally, the interface generates the adaptive interface to the consumers for helping the transaction process
Comparing Outcomes of Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest Between Prehospital Basic Life Support and Advanced Life Support
COMPARISON OF EMG ACTIVITY WITH DYNAMIC MOVEMENT AND STATIC POSTURE ON VIBRATION PLATFORM
The aim of this study is to investigate the difference among dynamic movement and static posture on vibration platform as well as no vibration. For this purpose, six healthy male subjects were recruited in this study. Each subject was instructed to maintain four situations: dynamic movement with vibration (frequency: 40 Hz, amplitude: 1 mm), and no-vibration; static posture with vibration (frequency: 40 Hz, amplitude: 1 mm), and novibration.
Result showed statistically significant increase at EMG rms of whole body vibration treatment and EMG rms value of dynamic movement was significantly larger than that of static posture (

Survival Prediction of Initial Blood pH for Nontraumatic Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest Patients in the Emergency Department
SummaryBackgroundMost nontraumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (NTOHCA) patients who fail in prehospital resuscitation receive continued cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the emergency department (ED). Initial blood pH, which can be assessed rapidly in the ED, was examined to see whether it is a strong survival predictor for these patients.MethodsA 1-year retrospective study included consecutive 225 NTOHCA patients at a medical center in northern Taiwan who presented through the emergency medical services system. On arrival at the ED, these patients received continued cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and their initial blood pH data were assessed.ResultsThe pH value was positively correlated with variables such as return of spontaneous circulation, witnessed arrest, short prehospital time (â€20 minutes), and survival. The best cut-off value of initial blood pH, revealed by the receiver operating characteristic curve, was 7.068. The lowest pH value of the survivors was 6.856. The results of logistic regression model analysis shows that the odds ratios of survival was 10.0 (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.1â47.7) for patients with initial blood pH â„ 7.068, 5.3 (95% CI, 1.48â18.9) for those with nonasystole rhythm, 4.0 (95% CI, 1.1â14.8) for those with prehospital time â€20 minutes, and 9.1 (95% CI, 2.3â35.2) for those without NaHCO3 administration during resuscitation, respectively.ConclusionA cut-off value of an initial blood pH of 7.068 can serve as a predictor for survival among NTOHCA patients. In addition, patients whose initial blood pH is lower than 6.85 in the ED may not survive until hospital discharge
