Fibrotic Lung Disease

In patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), there is an urgent need of biomarkers which can predict disease behaviour or response to treatment. Most published studies report results based on continuous data which can be difficult to apply to individual patients in clinical practice. Having antifibrotic therapies makes it even more important that we can accurately diagnose and prognosticate in IPF patients. Advances in computer technology over the past decade have provided computer-based methods for objectively quantifying fibrotic lung disease on high-resolution CT of the chest with greater strength than visual CT analysis scores. These computer-based methods and, more recently, the arrival of deep learning-based image analysis might provide a response to these unsolved problems. The purpose of this commentary is to provide insights into the problems associated with visual interpretation of HRCT, describe of the current technologies used to provide quantification of disease on HRCT and prognostication in IPF patients, discuss challenges to the implementation of this technology and future directions.

The 1960S

Online catalogs are types of interactive computer systems; they can also be called “interactive catalogs” because a user interacts with the computer to find relevant information. The interaction is the main difference between Online Public Access Catalogs (OPACs) and other types of library catalogs (Hildreth, 1982; Matthews, 1985). Online catalogs are regarded as real-time interactive retrieval systems for libraries (Fayen, 1983). According to Peters (1991), the development of online catalogs can be characterized by three decades of development. In the 1960s, the development of online catalogs was led by the development of computer technology and the library community’s desire to increase efficiency in finding library materials. In the 1970s, commercial vendors started to replace large university libraries as the principal developers of computer-based library systems. In the 1980s, local libraries expand their control of the library catalog systems.

Abstract:Although computer technology has progressed rapidly in the last decade, the use of computer mediated instruction as an adjunct to medical education has made only limited progress. This paper will attempt to analyze some of the major factors bearing on this limitation, will review those areas where computer based´instruction is potentially of greatest use, and will suggest means by which medical education can make greater use of the rapidly evolving information technologies. The Medical PLATO project at the University of Illinois will be used as an example to illustrate many of the points relating to the development of this field.

Transfer Of Information

Computer-based teaching methods can improve the transfer of information, increase instructional focus on conceptual and methodological skills, enhance motivation, and stimulate the development of expressive skills. After reviewing a number of studies of computer-based applications, we report a correlational study of psychology students' attitudes and achievement in a technologically enhanced classroom. The results indicated that (a) students rated the computer-based instructional components positively, (b) those with weak academic backgrounds who consistently used the technology achieved higher test scores than weak students who did not use the technology, and (c) students who dropped out of college the following semester tended to be low users of technology. We also discuss the implications of computer technology for teaching.

The Impact

Rapid advances in the computer industry and the concomitant knowledge explosion have created a revolution in the information handling electronics industry. The continued proliferation of computer technology in the educational environment appears inevitable. There seems to be little doubt that recent advances in educational technology will have important consequences for educational institutions at all levels during the coming decades. Students, teachers, and administrators alike have already come to rely on bibliographic and statistical data bases, automated dictionaries, micrographic storage and retrieval systems, and specialized interactive cable and videotext systems for information access. Despite the impact of computer technology in the school environment, guidelines for planning and developing useable software for assessing cognitive abilities has warranted little attention in educational literature. This article suggests that computer-based support systems are now available which could be instrumental in solving the problems associated with cognitive assessment.

The teacher is a professional educator with the task of educating, teaching, guiding, directing, training, assessing, and evaluating students in early and secondary education in certain formal institutions. One of the problems faced by Al-Hamidiyah Middle School teachers is the low competency of teachers, especially in the use of computer technology devices. This is unfortunate, even though the demands on teachers' assignments are in line with the enactment of the 2013 curriculum, where teachers are required to work using applications, learning media using information technology, application-based assessment systems, computer-based national exams, and others. This obstacle occurs because there is still a lack of teacher motivation to add competence outside the main task for a variety of reasons conveyed. The approach used in this dedication activity with a persuasive-educative approach, by providing knowledge, understanding, and skills in using Microsoft Office. The method used in the form of lectures, practice, and discussion. The results of this dedication the teacher understands and is able to practice directly.
