Flash GViewer is a customizable Flash movie that can be easily inserted into a web page to display each chromosome in a genome along with the locations of individual features on the chromosomes. It is intended to provide an overview of the genomic locations of a specific set of features - eg. genes and QTLs associated with a specific phenotype, etc. rather than as a way to view all features on the genome. The features can hyperlink out to a detail page to enable to GViewer to be used as a navigation tool. In addition the bands on the chromosomes can link to defineable URL and new region selection sliders can be used to select a specific chromosome region and then link out to a genome browser for higher resolution information. Genome maps for Rat, Mouse, Human and C. elegans are provided but other genome maps can be easily created. Annotation data can be provided as static text files or produced as XML via server scripts. This tool is not GO-specific, but was built for the purpose of viewing GO annotation data. Platform: Online tool

The National Center for Medical Rehabilitation Research (NCMRR) established a multi-center network of sites that are working together to design clinical intervention protocols and measures of outcome for TBI. Through rigorous patient evaluation, using common protocols and interventions designed for multiple points of care����??including the accident scene, emergency room, intensive care unit, rehabilitation and long-term follow-up����??the NCMRR TBI Clinical Trials Network can study the required numbers of patients to provide answers more rapidly than individual centers acting alone. This interdisciplinary research Network is designed to evaluate the relationship among acute care practice, rehabilitation strategies, and the long-term functional outcome of TBI patients����??that is, to identify which intervention variables result in improvements in long-term outcomes. Taking advantage of the network model structure has allowed TBI research to progress toward a number of clinical research goals. Specifically, the NCMRR wants to highlight two major achievements to date. First, the TBI Network created a profile of its typical patient to determine the number of patients with different clinical features who might be eligible for future studies and to help estimate recruitment times necessary. Second, Network researchers are developing clinical treatment guidelines and procedures for all points in the continuum of care, including TBI Clinical Trials Network Guidelines for surgical care, systems-based protocol for severe and moderate TBI patients, deep-vein thrombosis prophylaxis procedures, and rehabilitation guidelines for physical therapy, speech-language pathology, occupational therapy, and neuropsychology.

Tutorial that uses scanning electron micrographs (SEMs) as the primary resource to teach mammalian embryology. The 3-D like quality of the micrographs coupled with selected line drawings and minimal text allow relatively easy understanding of the complex morphological changes that occur in utero. Because early human embryos are not readily available and because embryogenesis is very similar across mammalian species, the majority of micrographs that are utilized in this tutorial are of mouse embryos. The remainder are human. This tutorial is divided into units that may be studied in any order. All of the images have a legend that indicates the age of the embryo. If it is a mouse embryo, the approximate equivalent human age is indicated. To minimize labeling, color-coding is widely used. To view the micrographs without color, the cursor may be placed on the image. The SEMs used in this tutorial are from the Kathleen K. Sulik collection. The line drawings have been used with permission from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins and are from the 6th and 7th editions of Langman''s Medical Embryology by T.W. Sadler.

Software application that supports the execution of multivariable prediction models with patient-specific characteristics so that personalized estimates of outcomes, often as a function of alternative treatments, can be generated within the routine flow of patient care. This can support evidence-based, shared medical decision-making to improve the safety, outcomes and cost-effectiveness of care. The current application is in the setting of generating individualized informed consent documents for PCI. However, the tool can support that translation of novel biomarkers, genetics and pharmacogenomic interactions into clinical care. The platform gives healthcare providers instantaneous access to the latest clinical prediction models coupled with rich visualization tools. These models may come from national organizations, outcomes researchers or a specific institution. In addition to decision support applications, it can be used to rapidly create personalized educational materials, patient letters, informed consent documents and a broad array of other items that can help elevate the quality of healthcare delivery.

Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) calculators to estimate kidney function for adults (MDRD GFR Calculator) and children (Schwartz GFR Calculator). In adults, the recommended equation for estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR) from serum creatinine is the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) Study equation. The IDMS-traceable version of the MDRD Study equation is used. Currently the best equation for estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR) from serum creatinine in children is the Bedside Schwartz equation for use with creatinine methods with calibration traceable to IDMS. Using the original Schwartz equation with a creatinine value from a method with calibration traceable to IDMS will overestimate GFR.

Standard specification to reduce inter-laboratory variation in creatinine assay calibration and therefore enable more accurate estimates of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Created by NKDEP''''s Laboratory Working Group in collaboration with the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC) and the European Communities Confederation of Clinical Chemistry (now called the European Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine), the effort is part of a larger NKDEP initiative to help health care providers better identify and treat chronic kidney disease in order to prevent or delay kidney failure and improve patient outcomes. Recommendations are intended for the USA and other countries or regions that have largely completed standardization of creatinine calibration to be traceable to an isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS) reference measurement procedure. The program''''s focus is to facilitate the sharing of information to assist in vitro diagnostic manufacturers, clinical laboratories, and others in the laboratory community with calibrating their serum creatinine measurement procedures to be traceable to isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS). The program also supports manufacturers'''' efforts to encourage their customers in the laboratory to coordinate use of standardized creatinine methods with implementation of a revised GFR estimating equation appropriate for use with standardized creatinine methods. Communication resources and other information for various segments of the laboratory community are available in the Creatinine Standardization Recommendations section of the website. Also available is a protocol for calibrating creatinine measurements using whole blood devices. The National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) released a standard reference material (SRM 967 Creatinine in Frozen Human Serum) for use in establishing calibrations for routine creatinine measurement procedures. SRM 967 was validated to be commutable with native serum samples for many routine creatinine procedures and is useful to establish or verify traceability to an IDMS reference measurement procedure. Establishing calibrations for serum creatinine methods using SRM 967 not only provides a mechanism for ensuring more accurate measurement of serum creatinine, but also enables more accurate estimates of GFR. For clinical laboratories interested in independently checking the calibration supplied by their creatinine reagent suppliers/manufacturers, periodic measurement of NIST SRM 967 should be considered for inclusion in the lab''''s internal quality assurance program. To learn more about SRM 967, including how to purchase it, visit the NIST website, https://www-s.nist.gov/srmors/quickSearch.cfm
