As medical doctors, we routinely check patient blood chemistry and CBC data to diagnose disease. However, these data and methods of analysis are very rarely used to find pre-disease conditions or treat undiagnosed malaise. Masatoshi Kaneko Ph.D. found that many pre-disease conditions and types of malaise could be detected using his unique method of blood data analysis, and could also be treated using personalized nutritional therapy as an alternative to using drugs. The authors of this article introduce personalized nutritional therapy based on blood data analysis (Kaneko’s method), and present and discuss some clinical cases. In total, 253 pre-disease or undiagnosed patients were treated using this nutritional therapy approach, and most of them recovered from their chronic symptoms and pre-disease conditions. This novel nutritional therapy has the potential to help many presymptomatic and undiagnosed patients suffering from malaise.

In this article, the author reports on a method crafted to interrogate the data of a Gadamerian hermeneutic phenomenological study that explored hope seen through the eyes of a small number of Australian youth. She advocates for transparency throughout data analysis, by commencing with an explication of Gadamerian hermeneutic phenomenology, followed by a description of the manner by which the data were interrogated. It is a basic premise of this work that all too often authors have adopted thematic analysis uncritically, and have used this method of analysis without considering its fit to the philosophical or methodological orientation of the study, and this practice has remained, by and large, unchallenged. While not advocating against thematic analysis per se, the author disputes that this analytical method is appropriate for studies that are grounded by the philosophical underpinnings of Gadamerian hermeneutic phenomenology, and therefore offers a unique method of data analysis.

Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and owner satisfaction following electrosurgical ventriculocordectomy (EVC), in conjunction with prosthetic laryngoplasty, in equine clinical cases affected with left- or right-sided recurrent laryngeal neuropathy.Methods: Retrospective data analysis of clinical signalment, surgery, athletic outcome, intra- and postoperative complications, and postoperative examinations from clinical cases wherein EVC was performed in conjunction with traditional prosthetic laryngoplasty from one practice. Owners were contacted by phone or email for a follow-up questionnaire.Results: Twenty-four horses underwent unilateral EVC, performed transendoscopically under sedated restraint, using monopolar electrosurgical instrumentation successfully. One horse experienced excessive intraoperative hemorrhage. No horses demonstrated postoperative complications. Twenty cases had a history of increased airway noise prior to surgery. In 15 of these cases (15/20, 75%), the airway noise was reported as fully improved post-surgery. Eighteen cases had a history of exercise intolerance prior to surgery. In 15 of these cases (15/18; 83%), the exercise intolerance was reported as resolved.Conclusion: EVC, in conjunction with prosthetic laryngoplasty, can contribute to improvement of RLN symptoms and aid in the effective return to athletic work. Performing transendoscopic ventriculocordectomy with monopolar electrosurgical instrumentation provides comparable clinical outcomes to traditional techniques using a diode laser or direct excision via laryngotomy.

Twintig jaar geleden verscheen de tweede druk van Qualitative data analysis van Miles en Huberman (1994), een van de eerste standaardwerken gewijd aan kwalitatieve data-analyse. Zij beschreven de aanleiding voor hun boek als volgt: ‘the most serious and central difficulty in the use of qualitative data is that methods of analysis are not well formulated’ (Miles & Huberman, 1994). Met dit boek wilden zij een bijdrage leveren aan het ontwikkelen van expliciete, systematische analysemethoden, die geloofwaardig en repliceerbaar zouden zijn. Ook in het onderwijs over kwalitatief onderzoek wordt nog weinig aandacht besteed aan data-analyse, in vergelijking met de aandacht voor dataverzameling. Leerboeken over kwalitatief onderzoek wijden meestal aparte hoofdstukken aan observeren, interviewen en het houden van focusgroepen, gevolgd door een algemeen hoofdstuk over data-analyse, waarin algemene stappen worden beschreven. In de afgelopen jaren lijkt deze lacune te worden goedgemaakt door een toenemende aandacht voor kwalitatieve data-analyse: er zijn tientallen boeken over data-analyse vanuit verschillende invalshoeken gepubliceerd. Onlangs verscheen ook een tweede bewerkte druk van Hennie Boeijes boek Analyseren in kwalitatief onderzoek: denken en doen, en binnenkort zal ook een boek van Jeanine Evers het licht zien: Kwalitatieve analyse: kunst én kunde. Beide boeken komen in dit themanummer aan bod. Nu kwalitatieve onderzoeksmethoden steeds meer ‘volwassen’ zijn geworden en een bredere belangstelling en acceptatie genieten, ligt het voor de hand om de basisprincipes van kwalitatieve data-analyse aan een kritisch onderzoek te onderwerpen. Data-analyse vormt een van de belangrijkste onderdelen van een kwalitatief onderzoek, maar in de uitvoering blijken grote verschillen te bestaan. Het leek ons daarom belangrijk om in dit 57ste nummer van KWALON aandacht te besteden aan verschillende wijzen van kwalitatieve data-analyse.

The study of caregiver–child social interaction during infancy and the early years has expanded considerably over the last 30–40 years as a result of technological advances and associated methods of analysis. Through a consideration of recent research on the emergence of participation in social interaction, this paper considers whether sufficient attention is paid to the background presuppositions and assumptions underscoring contemporary approaches in the field. Following introductory comments on different aspects of three perspectives – child-focused conversation analysis; developmental social interaction; and psychosocial formulations – a number of issues, challenges and puzzles are highlighted through an examination of examples from recently presented research. Concluding comments focus on the value of seeking to ensure that the interdependencies between background theory, and data analysis and interpretation, remains a central focus for work on children and social interaction.

ABSTRACT Qualitative research is a simple, inexpensive and effective tool in medical research. The data analysis in qualitative researches, though based on certain ground rules, do not follow a rigid process like the data analysis of quantitative researches. It is ongoing through and through method. One interesting feature of data collection and analysis in qualitative research is “constant comparison”. This is a highly unique method in this type of research as compared to the quantitative research. Qualitative researches usually involve inductive reasoning, but there is deductive reasoning also. The first step of analyzing qualitative data is to transcribe all data into English from vernacular language. This transcript is then subjected to selection of “codes” which are nothing but descriptive names applied to certain thoughts coming up repeatedly in a transcript. Several codes together make a broader “category”. Themes are emerged from categories which are broad categories of information. The process of transcript analysis is called “content analysis” and this is at the end converted into “thematic analysis” which gives the meaning of the whole research and the answers to the original research question(s). There is ‘consolidated criteria’ for reporting qualitative research (COREQ) which is a 32 item check list for interviews and focus group discussions.

This workbook is a revised edition of the volume published in 1984 by Larry Selinker and Susan Gass entitled Workbook in Second Language Acquisition. Like the first edition, this edition provides a research-centered view of second language acquisition (SLA) that seeks to build an awareness of the issues, types of data, and methods of analysis through a series of practical problems of data analysis and related questions. The data and problems, which all focus on English as the target language, are drawn from articles published between 1968 and 1993, the majority of them “SLA classics” published in the 1980s. The book includes a short glossary and has accompanying tape-recorded material not provided to the reviewer.

Gene expression is complex: many mRNAs change in abundance in response to a new condition. But while some of these expression changes may be direct, many may be downstream, indirect effects. One of the major problems of microarray data analysis is distinguishing between these changes. Some of the most common methods of analysis are discussed, in the context of their ability to distinguish between direct and indirect expression changes. The application of modular control analysis to microarray data in order to partition and quantify the importance of mRNA clusters in mediating responses is described.
