10. Gender Issues on the Information Highway: An Analysis of Communication Styles in Electronic Discussion Groups.

Author

Rossetti, Paolo

Abstract

A study investigated gender differences in language use in electronic mail discussion groups. A review of research on discourse analysis identifies areas in which gender differences are found in interpersonal interaction and language use in general, and how these reflect differences in socialization. Research on electronic discussion groups suggests this is a fruitful area for testing assumptions about gender differences because there is no direct discourse interference and gender of interlocutors is irrelevant to the topic or interaction. Data were drawn from 82 electronic-mail (e-mail) messages randomly collected from varied e-mail groups, and analyzed for language indicators representing "female" and "male" styles and for functional gender-related markers of on-line style. Gender of the e-mail senders was known, and reflects accurately the proportion of male and female participants in electronic discussion groups. Findings concerning language patterns are summarized. It is concluded that there are gender differences in e-mail message style, with males tending toward a more aggressive, competitive style and women tending toward a more supportive approach. Message excerpts and data summaries are appended. (MSE)

Abstract

[EN] Background: Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices estimate plasma glucose (PG) from measurements in compartments alternative to blood. The accuracy of currently available CGM is yet unsatisfactory and may depend on the implemented calibration algorithms, which do not compensate adequately for the differences of glucose dynamics between the compartments. Here we propose and validate an innovative calibration algorithm for the improvement of CGM performance. Methods: CGM data from GlucoDay (R) (A. Menarini, Florence, Italy) and paired reference PG have been obtained from eight subjects without diabetes during eu-, hypo-, and hyperglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamps. A calibration algorithm based on a dynamic global model (GM) of the relationship between PG and CGM in the interstitial space has been obtained. The GM is composed by independent local models (LMs) weighted and added. LMs are defined by a combination of inputs from the CGM and by a validity function, so that each LM represents to a variable extent a different metabolic condition and/or sensor-subject interaction. The inputs best suited for glucose estimation were the sensor current I and glucose estimations (G) over cap, at different time instants [I-k, Ik-1, (G) over cap (k-1)] (IIG). In addition to IIG, other inputs have been used to obtain the GM, achieving different configurations of the calibration algorithm. Results: Even in its simplest configuration considering only IIG, the new calibration algorithm improved the accuracy of the estimations compared with the manufacturer's estimate: mean absolute relative difference (MARD) = 10.8 +/- 1.5% versus 14.7 +/- 5.4%, respectively (P = 0.012, by analysis of variance). When additional exogenous signals were considered, the MARD improved further (7.8 +/- 2.6%, P, The authors acknowledge the partial funding of this work by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation projects DPI2007-66728-C02-01 and DPI2010-20764-C02-01 and by the European Union through FEDER funds and grant FP7-PEOPLE-2009-IEF, Reference 252085.
