A simple computing program for application of the TDCR method to standardization of pure-beta emitters

The Triple to Double Coincidence Ratio (TDCR) method is an absolute LSC method for the activity determination of many radionuclides. The method is based on a statistical description of the phenomena in a triple photomultiplier LS counter. The TDCRB-1 program was developed to calculate the radioactive concentration of a solution and is based on the TDCR method data processing. The program, in FORTRAN language has a modular structure, which easy enables to understand its functioning. The outline of the theory, a structure and algorithm of the program, as well as an example of the output results, are presented.

MitoAnalyzer, a computer program and interactive web site to determine the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms and mutations in human mitochondrial DNA.

MitoAnalyzer provides information about the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and mutations in human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). This program determines if a single base pair (bp) change is in the non-coding or coding region, in the first, second or third bp of the codon, in a rRNA, tRNA or a protein, causes an amino acid (aa) change, the nature of that change, the position of the aa change in the protein, and the new aa sequence of the changed protein. Mutations associated with published mitochondrial diseases are noted. This program, thus, facilitates rapid analysis and evaluation of SNPs and mutations in human mtDNA.

[Computer program for improved diagnostic coding in ophthalmology based on the expanded ICD 10].

BACKGROUND: The coding of ophthalmological diagnoses is a long-standing problem that has recently been highlighted by the planned introduction of ICD 10. METHODS: Using an alphanumerical classification system for the first time, ICD 10 offers the space needed for necessary expansion without leading once again to dislocations in the numbering system. The FoxPro 2.5 database system was used to create a program based on an expanded ICD 10 that can be applied from DOS and Windows. RESULTS: ICD 10 was expanded by the addition of a numerical fifth digit, thus increasing the number of classifiable ophthalmological disorders by a factor of 4.2 from 390 to 1635. The new program greatly facilitates the handling of this substantial amount of data. CONCLUSIONS: The enhanced diagnosis coding achieved with the expanded ICD 10 permits nosologically exact statistics to be kept for use as a basis for further scientific work.

[DocuMed--a personal computer program system for basic documentation and ICD statistics based on SNOMED].

Of the different medical classification systems ICD only has endured on the long time, and through the german government regulations from 1985 (Bundespflegesatzordnung) ICD has become a must to all hospital departments for administration purposes. As a clinical and scientific system for encoding of diagnosis and treatment procedures ICD has been proved to be of minor suitability. SNOMED, a medical classification system derived from a pathological description of diseases seemed first to fulfill all the wishes clinicians have; but the very little use over the 12 years since its publication demonstrates its poor acceptance. This might be due to the time consuming and lavish procedure of documentation in SNOMED, as entries have to be made in 7 categories. DocuMed, which is a microcomputer program and database on the one hand and a medical classification system on the other, seems to provide interesting features. For minimal documentation it only needs entries in the category of diagnosis, a term not present in SNOMED; for more detailed documentation requirements DocuMed provides similar categories as SNOMED with references to the latter and to ICD.

Earplugs--a computer program for simulation of personal hearing protection devices.

Earplugs is a program to allow predictive evaluation of earplugs and earmuffs. Written in Basic for the Apple II+, it is translatable into all other versions of Basic. The program allows the user to compare the attenuation capabilities of any earplug versus the environmental octave band analysis for the workplace in question. This version of the program provides a plot of the results.
