  4. 18. Improving Drug Discovery Decision Making using Machine Learning and Graph Theory in QSAR Modeling

    Författare :Ernst Ahlberg Helgee; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; machine-learning; QSAR; descriptor importance; local and global models; method of manufactured solutions; automated compound optimization; drug design;

    Sammanfattning : During the last decade non-linear machine-learning methods have gained popularity among QSAR modelers. The machine-learning algorithms generate highly accurate models at a cost of increased model complexity where simple interpretations, valid in the entire model domain, are rare. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Statistics on local drug sales: A tool to identify problem areas and to follow effects of education on drug use

    Författare :Anders Ekedahl; Kardiovaskulär forskning - epidemiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; unused drugs; Pharmacological sciences; toxikologi; farmaci; farmakognosi; Farmakologi; toxicology; pharmacognosy; pharmacy; producer independent information; drug sales statistics;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: 1) To assess if drug sales data indicate differences in morbidity, mortality, socio-economic conditions and deviating prescribing habits among physicians; 2) to identify areas for educational interventions and to analyse changes in prescribing after educational activities. In addition, an effort was made to estimate differences between pharmacy sales and purchases by the population, and the amount and value of unused drugs returned to pharmacies. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Randomised, controlled trials of patient education with special reference to heart failure and joint diseases

    Författare :Agneta Björk-Linné; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; randomisation; computer-technology; CD; controlled trial; drugs; drug interactions; health care cost; heart failure; interactive; Social medicine; joint diseases; patient education; knowledge; Socialmedicin; samhällsmedicin;

    Sammanfattning : In order to improve the treatment and care of patients with chronic diseases, controlled studies have to be performed continuously. It is widely believed that giving education/information to patients will increase their knowledge and compliance, which will decrease medical events and cost. LÄS MER
