Abstract During the uploading of data for submission to the EudraCT results database, a discrepancy was identified. It was noted that the number of deaths per group was not consistent with the number in the final report and trial publication. This discrepancy was found to relate to two randomisation numbers. During the trial, the randomisation database had been held separately from the trial database, with manual transcription of randomisation numbers from the randomisation database to the trial database. Two randomisation numbers had been entered incorrectly into the trial database and, although this was documented at the time, the correction had not been made in the analysis data set. The two infants in question received the correct treatment in accordance with their allocation, but were analysed according to the wrong treatment group. Following the identification of this error, all analyses were repeated. It was confirmed that this error had a negligible impact on the study results. Furthermore, the two infants in question had not been included in the primary and secondary outcome analyses, as one had died and the other had withdrawn prior to the primary end-point assessment, so the key study outcomes remain unchanged. The only changes to the results are in the number of serious adverse events and minor changes to the data in demographics tables mostly affecting decimal points and the CONSORT diagram. Our interpretation of the study results remains unchanged.

Parametric modeling has become a widely accepted mechanism for generating data set variants for product families. These data sets that include geometric models and feature-based process plans are created by specifying values for parameters within feasible ranges specified as constraints in the definition. The ranges denote the extent or envelope of the product family. Increasingly, with globalization the inverse problem is becoming important. This takes independently generated product data sets that on observation belong to the same product family and creates a parametric model for that family. This problem is also of relevance to large companies where independent design teams may work on product variants without much collaboration only to attempt consolidation later on to optimize the design of manufacturing processes and systems. In this paper we present a methodology for generating a feature-based part family parametric model through merging independently generated product data sets. We assume that these data sets are feature-based with relationships such as precedences captured using graphs. Since there are typically numerous ways in which these data sets can be merged, we formulate this as an optimization problem and solve using the A* algorithm. The parameter ranges generated by this approach will be used to design appropriate Reconfigurable Machine Tools (RMTs) and systems (RMS) for manufacturing the resulting part family.

The subject of the study is the organizational and methodological aspects of accounting and internal economic control of accounts receivable for non-commodity transactions. The purpose of the article is to improve them regarding to the internal economic control. The results of the study are in establishing the features of accounts receivable for non-commodity transactions and their accounting. This allowed us to identify the main problems, functions, directions and tasks of their internal economic control. The main measures for its improvement at the organizational (comprehensive audits) and methodological level (based on factual and documentary inspections) with the involvement of property survey boards and auditing commissions are proposed. The content of stages and sections of control inspections final report is developed. Field of application of the results: enterprises, educational institutions training the specialists in accounting and taxation, analysis, control. Conclusions. The effectiveness of the final stage – the stage of generalization and implementation of control results – should ensure the analytical character of control data set in the previous stage. It means, first of all, the distribution of deviations of production costs by reasons of their occurrence, grouping and coding of irregularities detected by their scale and impact on the economic process, the systematic connection of deviations of production costs with the centres responsible for irregularities, reference to the document containing investigative and legal substantiation of the specific performers guilt. This approach allows the enterprises management to eliminate the irregularities effective and timely and to prevent them in the future.
