The Ceará State University (Portuguese: Universidade Estadual do Ceará, UECE) is a public university in the Brazilian state of Ceará. It is the second largest university in Ceará and the eighth best state university in Brazil.Established in 1975 by the Act No. 9.753 which authorizes the State Executive Branch to create Ceará State Educational Foundation (FUNEDUCE), UECE is the largest state university of Ceará. It is involved in teaching, research and science outreach in many areas of knowledge. Its structure consists of a network of campuses that privileges the courses aimed at the training of teachers. The undergraduate programs in Business Administration, Accounting and Psychology are among the best in the country according to Students Performance National Exam (Enade).It has ten campuses, two of them in Fortaleza (the main campus is called Campus do Itaperi). The other campuses are in the cities of Quixadá, Itapipoca, Crateús, Limoeiro do Norte, Iguatu, Tauá and Pacoti..
Electronic health records (EHRs) in critical care settings generate vast amounts of data that increasingly drive machine learning (ML) models for clinical decision support, yet data quality issues may have profound consequences for downstream prediction, classification, and optimization applications. This study aims to systematically examine EHR data quality issues in critical care medicine and their impact on ML model performance, clinical outcomes, and patient safety. We conducted a systematized review following expert-based questions, searching MEDLINE, Embase, IEEE Xplore, ACM Digital Library, CINAHL, Google Scholar, DBLP, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library. Six distinct questions addressed missing data patterns, temporal data quality, bias and health equity, multi-modal integration, real-time monitoring, and institutional variability. 281 relevant studies examining EHR data quality in critical care settings. After applying the eligibility criteria, 29 studies were selected. EHR data quality issues in critical care were pervasive and multifaceted. Missing data rates exceeded 80
This paper investigates an abstract Kirchhoff-type suspension bridge model with fractional internal damping. Using the theory of semigroups of bounded linear operators, we establish the existence and uniqueness of global strong solutions for the model. Through the theory of continuous (nonlinear) operator semigroups, we prove that the associated semigroup is gradient and asymptotically compact, which enables us to demonstrate the existence of a global attractor characterized by the system’s stationary solutions. Furthermore, we show that the semigroup is asymptotically quasistable, yielding two important consequences: (1) The attractor has finite fractal dimension and (2) enhanced solution regularity.
Thiosemicarbazones (TSCBZ) are promising insecticidal compounds, but their potential neurotoxicity remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the toxicity and cholinesterase inhibition of six substituted TSCBZ derivatives using ligand- and structure-based computational approaches. Electronic property analysis revealed that bromine substitution enhances electrophilicity, while sulfur (in TSCBZ1–3) and nitrogen (in TSCBZ4–6) are the most nucleophilic sites. Toxicity prediction indicated that TSCBZ1, 4, and 6 may induce acute and chronic effects in aquatic organisms. Molecular docking showed that TSCBZ1 and TSCBZ4 exhibit higher affinity for acetylcholinesterase than galantamine, suggesting potential selective inhibition. These findings provide novel insights into the structure–toxicity relationship of TSCBZ and their environmental safety profile.
This paper analyzes the well-posedness and exponential stability of a fully dynamic piezoelectric beam model incorporating a Caputo fractional derivative with exponential weight as a delay mechanism in the displacement equation. By introducing suitable auxiliary variables, the system is reformulated as an abstract Cauchy problem. The existence and uniqueness of solutions are established via semigroup theory. Using energy estimates and Lyapunov functionals, it is shown that the system is exponentially stable under the condition delta 2 eta(sigma-1) < delta(1), linking the delay parameters to the damping coefficients. These results extend previous models by accounting for fractional-order memory effects.
