Abstract: In-phase and quadrature components have different relationships with some important petrophyscial parameters, such as water saturation and mineral cation exchange capacity (CEC). In clay-containing subterranean rock formation such as shaly sand formations, these parameters can be estimated using different components of array induction tool data combined with other knowledge about the clay-containing formation. Some parameters, such as mobility and fraction of counterions are valid in cases where the pore water solution is an electrolyte of NaCl.

Abstract: Predicting beneficial drug combinations mitigating adverse drug reactions identifies drug combinations and associated target adverse drug reaction from a spontaneous reporting system containing case reports of drugs and associated adverse drug reactions. Each drug combination comprises a first drug and a second drug, and a propensity score is computed for each drug in each group. This propensity score expresses a probability of being exposed to a given drug based on other co-prescribed drugs and reported indications, which reflect patient characteristics. Associations are computed for each drug as well as drug interaction. Among the associations, the sum of the associations of the second drug and the interaction effect represents the predicted beneficial score expressing whether the second drug alters the chance of developing the target adverse drug reaction for patients on the first drug.
