In recent years, many new idea generation methods have been developed to generate innovative concepts. The effectiveness of those methods is evaluated by applying a set of metrics to the resulting concepts. Several metrics have been proposed for this purpose, including quality, novelty, and variety metrics, but the inter-rater reliability of those metrics has not been investigated extensively. In this paper, the inter-rater reliability of three existing metrics is analyzed by applying them to the results of a representative idea generation study. The effects on inter-rater agreement of analyzing concepts at the overall concept level versus the feature level are investigated, along with the impacts of alternative scales for specific metrics. In general, the inter-rater reliability of the metrics is found to be relatively low, with the most reliable results obtained at the feature level. The use of different scales also affects inter-rater reliability, but the effect is less significant. In addition to their low levels of repeatability, the metrics differ in how novelty is appraised.

Abstract In this study, the radiation exposure of workers at workplaces registered and licensed between 2008 and 2017 for the production/sale/use of radioactive isotopes (RI) and radioactive generators (RG) was analysed to evaluate the quality of radiation safety management controls in use. The number of facilities using RIs increased by ~26% from 2008 to 2017 whereas the number of facilities using RGs increased by ~166% over the same period. There were 33 029 radiation workers in all fields in 2008, and the number increased by ~32% to 43 467 by 2017. However, the collective effective dose of radiation received by workers decreased in all industries except for those working in nuclear power plants. In other words, the quality of radiation safety management improved over that same time period due to the systematic, continuous introduction of safety mechanisms by the regulatory authority.

Tuberculosis(TB) is aninfectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The aim was to investigate the levels of immunomodulatory markers like interluekin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrotizing factor-α (TNF- α),cell differentiation-4 (CD4) and CD8 levels in those patients with active tuberculosis (TB) disease in comparison with control group. 41 Adults diagnosed with TB were included in comparison to 32 healthy individuals at Babylon health center for pulmonary diseases and TB. Descriptive data for patients and control group werecollected by well-trained researcher following a structured questionnaire. In parallel, peripheral blood collected to determine IL-6, TNF- α,CD4 and CD8. Then the assessment for the association between clinical and descriptive data and immunomodulatory markers levels was investigated statistically. The majority of TB patients were males (56%) and 71% were resident in rural areas; 47% of them were living in middle socioeconomic state,moreover,47% of TB cases had diabetes,furthermore,51% had chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases,12% had hypertension and 39% of them had chronic anemia with 47% smokers with no significant difference versus control. Following to that,there was highly increased in IL-6 and TNF-α levels in TB patients versus control (P<0.001),with low CD4 level versus control (P<0.001). While there was no significant change shown in CD8 levels versus control and this might highly be correlated with 30% of abnormal liver function tests among TB patients. A high proportion of TB patients have low CD4 level mostly associated with active disease. Moreover,the increase of IL-6 and TNF-α levels suggests a inverse impact on CD4 level which closely associated with the outcome of the disease.

Resumen: Las copias pictóricas durante el Renacimiento gozaron de un auge inusitado hasta entonces. Este apogeo se debió a los diversos fines para los que sirvieron: como parte de los procesos didácticos y de aprendizaje del oficio de la pintura; como sistema instrumental para la fijación y difusión de modelos; como mecanismo expeditivo en los talleres; y como forma de seriación o repetición de modelos afortunados, a veces incurriendo en el plagio o la falsificación. El presente artículo establece una confrontación entre la reputación teórica de las copias pictóricas –aparentemente despreciadas u obviadas en la literatura artística–, y su verdadera repercusión práctica, que supuso que se crearan diversas maneras de entenderlas, y juzgarlas, en función de sus fines. Con ello se pretende enfrentar dos realidades paralelas: la del ámbito ideológico-teórico versus la realidad práctica.Abstract: Pictorial copies during the Renaissance enjoyed an unprecedented boom until then. This peak arose due to the impulse of the various purposes for which those copies served: as part of the learning processes of the craft of painting; as an instrumental system for fixing and disseminating models; as expeditious mechanism for workshops; and as a form of serialization or repetition of fortunate models, sometimes even committing plagiarism or forgery. This paper focuses on a confrontation between theoretical reputation –copies were apparently neglected or obviated in the artistic and pictorial treatises–, and its real practical impact, which meant different approaches and ways to understand such practice, depending on their final purposes. This way two parallel realities can be faced: the ideological and theoretical level versus the actual practice.
