Classifying Matter by Composition03:35

Classifying Matter by Composition

90.1K
Matter: Pure Substances and Mixtures
According to its composition, the matter can be classified into two broad categories — pure substances and mixtures. 
A pure substance is a form of matter that has a constant composition throughout with uniform properties. For example, any sample of sucrose has the same composition and same physical properties, such as melting point, color, and sweetness, regardless of the source from which it is isolated. 
A mixture is composed of two or...

The Tree of Life - Bacteria, Archaea, Eukaryotes

The “tree of life” describes the evolution of life and the evolutionary relationships between organisms. The root of the tree is the common ancestor to all life on Earth. All other species radiate from this point, much like the branches of a tree. The numerous tips of these branches on the tree of life represent every living, or extant, species. Extinct species, which are species that no longer exist, can be found towards the center of the tree. Currently, these organisms, both...

Classifying Matter by State

103.0K
Chemistry is the study of matter and the changes it undergoes. Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space. Matter is all around us; the air, water, soil, mountains, even our bodies are all examples of matter. Matter is divided into three states — solid, liquid, and gas — that are commonly found on earth. The fourth state of matter, plasma, occurs naturally in the interiors of stars.

Survival Tree01:19

Survival Tree

413
Survival trees are a non-parametric method used in survival analysis to model the relationship between a set of covariates and the time until an event of interest occurs, often referred to as the "time-to-event" or "survival time." This method is particularly useful when dealing with censored data, where the event has not occurred for some individuals by the end of the study period, or when the exact time of the event is unknown.

The Bronchial Tree01:23

The Bronchial Tree

6.5K
The human bronchi and bronchial tree play a crucial role in the respiratory system, facilitating the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. Let's delve into the intricate structure and functions of these respiratory components.
The trachea, commonly known as the windpipe, is a tube that connects the larynx (voice box) to the bronchi. At a point called the carina, it bifurcates into two primary bronchi. The right primary bronchus is wider, shorter, and more vertical than the left primary...

Phylogenetic Trees

49.3K
Phylogenetic trees come in many forms. It matters in which sequence the organisms are arranged from the bottom to the top of the tree, but the branches can rotate at their nodes without altering the information. The lines connecting individual nodes can be straight, angled, or even curved.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Decision Science
  • Health Policy

Background:

  • Healthcare systems face increasing demand for efficient service delivery.
  • Subsidization of e-visit services by health insurance necessitates accurate patient selection.
  • Identifying suitable candidates for e-visits is crucial for optimizing healthcare resource allocation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose and validate a decision tree-based e-visit classification approach (DTEVCA).
  • To identify clinic visits and patients who would benefit most from e-visit services.
  • To provide a clear guideline for insurance agencies regarding e-visit implementation.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a decision tree-based classification model.
  • Employed clinic medical records and patient demographic data for analysis.
  • Validated the approach using a large dataset from Taiwan's National Health Insurance.

Main Results:

  • The DTEVCA accurately classifies in-office visits suitable for conversion to e-visits.
  • The decision tree provides straightforward rules for insurance agencies.
  • The approach demonstrates efficiency and validity in classifying e-visit candidates.

Conclusions:

  • The DTEVCA is an effective tool for classifying e-visit suitability.
  • The approach supports policy formulation for e-visit implementation and physician adoption.
  • The DTEVCA framework is adaptable for other new services beyond e-visits.
