Summary: Anesthesia Information Management Systems (AIMS) are specialized electronic medical records used by anesthesiologists to collect and present perioperative patient data. A recent study identified 13 commercially available AIMS in the American and Canadian marketplace, with 10 systems described in detail. Different AIMS offer varying features and functionalities, allowing anesthesia departments to choose a system that best fits their needs.

Summary: The newly developed rock-flow cell is demonstrated to be a more robust testing tool for LDHI-AA qualification, providing advantages in visualization and quantification of hydrate formation and accumulation compared to the traditional rocking cell. It offers a closer representation of shear, phase dispersion, and flow regime in flowlines, making it more suitable for assessing hydrate slurry in oil/gas production systems.

Summary: The close relationship between information systems and information technology presents challenges for researchers in distinguishing between the two concepts. This study explores the practical use of the systems concept and identifies a distinction between an information system (IS) and an information technology system (IT system). In practice, an IS incorporates both technical and social subsystems, while an IT system primarily focuses on technical elements. This distinction is valuable in practice as IS practitioners often deal with integrating IT systems into organizational IS, leading to a need for new methodologies and theories to address the social integration of IT systems and IS.

Summary: This paper proposes a general, flexible, and parameterizable framework for evaluating fairness in recommender systems. The framework is based on two fundamental measures from information theory and considers the interplay between user and item groups. Experimental results demonstrate that the framework can measure fairness in a general, uniform, and meaningful way.

Summary: The paper discusses how obtaining information of a quantum system through quantum measurements can bring disturbances to the system and affect the entanglement between arbitrary bipartite systems. By modeling the measurement process as tripartite systems and defining various information quantities, the relationships between information gain and entanglement in the tripartite systems are explored.

Summary: This article introduces a general-purpose framework aimed at capturing the concept of quality of measurement information (MI) and provides systematic analysis for evaluating, communicating, and improving MI quality, with an application example presented to test the framework. The framework, based on general criteria from ISO standards, classifies criteria according to syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic layers, forming a structured approach that includes both top-down analysis and bottom-up synthesis.

Summary: Complete or partial fundoplication for GERD surgery is controversial. Partial fundoplication is associated with less post-operative complications, but less effective. Comparing mechanical efficiency reveals Nissen fundoplication to be the most effective, followed by Toupet and Dor fundoplication. These findings suggest that Toupet may be as good as Nissen in clinical practice.

Summary: The research examines the technological properties and stability of innovative gel-forming polymeric materials for complex soil conditioning. These materials possess improved water retention, dispersity, hydraulic properties, anti-erosion, and anti-pathogenic protection, along with resistance to negative environmental factors. Through laboratory analysis, the materials were found to have optimal swelling degree, high surface energy, specific surface area, threshold of gel collapse, half-life, and fungicidal effect. In small doses, the materials significantly enhanced water retention and dispersity, reduced hydraulic conductivity, suppressed evaporation, and formed a windproof soil crust.

Summary: Research suggests that the relationship between time pressure and software quality is more complex than expected. High time pressure can help reduce errors if developers perceive unrealistic deadlines to be ever-present, but the actual critical probability is higher than the theoretical one. Considering the contingencies of the study, time pressure can assist in striving for quality in software projects.

Summary: This study systematically reviewed the impact of CDSS on the performance and care outcomes of nurses and allied health professionals. The findings suggest that CDSS has a positive impact on care processes and patient care outcomes, but comparative research is generally of low quality and better evaluative research is needed.

Summary: Heavy metals are widely spread pollutants in soil. Phytoextraction technology is used to address multi-metal-contaminated soil, with amendments like K2HEDP, PGRs, and iron chelates enhancing the process. While amino polycarboxylate chelators may have negative effects, K2HEDP shows promise in promoting plant growth, especially when combined with PGRs and iron chelates.
