Chemical compound and disease context of Computer Systems

• A Summagraphics digitiser and Prime 750 computer system were used to digitise the echocardiograms of 15 patients with restrictive cardiomyopathy, 10 with constrictive pericarditis and a group of 20 age and sex matched normal subjects of similar age and sex distribution [10].

Biological context of Computer Systems

• Touch-screen computer systems in the rheumatology clinic offer a reliable and user-friendly means of collecting quality-of-life and outcome data from patients with rheumatoid arthritis [11].
• Four general practices in the Trent Region that use the EMIS computer system, and were known to be high recorders of clinical data on their computer databases, were selected [12].
• The elements supporting this database are dictionary tables of coded phrases, a general purpose query language (Tandem ENFORM), an HL7 interface to a laboratory computer system, and long-term data storage of demographic, microbiology and other clinical data in a relational database [13].

Anatomical context of Computer Systems

• Sixty cases of liver FNAC with their corresponding cell blocks were retrieved from the hospital computer system, including 30 HCC and 30 MC (15 colon, 10 breast, and 5 pancreas) [14].
• We tried to elucidate the localization and distribution of amyloid bodies (Corpora amylacea) in the human vestibulocochlear nerve stained with luxol fast blue-periodic acid Schiff-hematoxylin using of a combination of an image analyzing computer system and a microscope fitted with a drawing tube [15].

Associations of Computer Systems with chemical compounds

• Through a series of discussions between members of the Computer Council of the Society of Nuclear Medicine and representatives from the manufacturers of computer systems, a set of important considerations emerged, which are reported in this paper [16].
• A gamma camera computer system was used to monitor the distribution and clearance rate of inhaled DTPA radioaerosol [17].
• A common sequence/structural motif pattern has been identified within the steroid/thyroid hormone receptors and other transcriptional activators using a new massively parallel symbolic learning assistant computer system [18].
• The state of saturation with calcium oxalate monohydrate was estimated by means of a computer system which solved the interactions among 45 complex species [19].
• Analysis was made through a specially programmed Qantel 1300 computer (Empire Computer Systems, Seattle, Washington) [20].

Gene context of Computer Systems

• The proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) score was measured as the ratio of PCNA-positive nuclear size/total nuclear size determined by an image analysis computer system [21].
• For patients whose stool yielded MRSA, information regarding any previous cultures positive for MRSA or other organisms that would require contact precautions was obtained from the laboratory's computer system [22].
• A telephone-linked computer system for COPD care [23].
• When it arrived, the computer system known as OSCAR created controversy, anxiety and arguments among clinical caregivers who found it tedious, time consuming and cumbersome [24].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Computer Systems

• The clinical diagnostic accuracy of 2-day stress/rest quantitative Technetium-99m (Tc-99m) methoxy-isobutyl-isonitrile (Tc-sestamibi) single photon emission computerized tomography (SPECT) was assessed in a validation population of 61 patients from two different sites using two different camera/computer systems [26].
• Using 99m Tc cerebral scinitigraphy and a gamma comera/computer system, the pattern of blood flow in 5 brain areas was manitored after a single intravenous infusion of 200 mg pentoxifylline (10 ml) and after 10 ml saline solution [27].
• The structure of this compound has been characterized as (2-ethoxyethoxy)acetic acid, using a gas chromatography/mass spectrometry/computer system [28].
• Most blood banks (70.6%) perform a second ABO blood grouping test for patients before they consider it as valid and keep it in their laboratory's computer system [29].
• We present a simple and rapid procedure for quantifying mRNA in the brain after RT-PCR, in which the intensity of the ethidium bromide luminescence of PCR products is measured directly from electrophoretic gels by a highly sensitive CCD camera combined with an image analyzing computer system (Gel Doc 1000 system) [30].
