Academics can now take their research to a higher level
With DataMatch Tool 2.0 (DMT 2.0), researchers can link data from different sources easily and quickly and take their research to a higher level.
Based on their experience in academic research and their knowledge in data collection and analysis, researchers from Data Match Solutions have developed a convenient software tool with a powerful algorithm to match data from different databases.
"DataMatch Tool (DMT) was created by academics for academics," said Claude Francoeur, President of Data Match Solutions. "DMT can rapidly find perfect matches and suggest close matches. A user-friendly interface makes it very easy to accept or reject suggestions and to perform absolute or relative date matches."
"DMT is a brilliant idea. We have many databases (Compustat, Datastream, Thomson One, Amadeus, Bankscope, KLD, Audit Analytics, etc.). This software helps both staff and students to minimize time and effort to merge various data," said Dr. Stergios Leventis from the International Hellenic University.
Bernard Bizimana, Director IT and Technical services at HEC Montreal library, continued, "Finally, a software that can reconcile the different databases that we offer to our clientele. With DataMatch Tool, our librarians are now better able to assist researchers and students in achieving their data collection."
Researchers, faculty and students worldwide use DataMatch Tool to:
- Find perfect and close matches between databases easily and quickly.
- Detect noisy elements.
- Find close matches between remaining data entries.
- Set predefined matches and synonyms.
- Retrieve data based on dates or time periods.
- Gather the necessary data to perform statistical and econometric tests (e.g. with SPSS or Stata).
Features of DataMatch Tool
- Powerful algorithm and matching capabilities.
- Customizable by user.
- User-friendly interface.
- Step-by-step tutorials and guides.
- Import from and export in MS-Excel, MS-Access, XML or Text format.
Pricing and Availability
DataMatch Tool 2.0 is designed for Windows XP, Vista and 7. The list price for DMT 2.0 is USD 419.95 (EUR 299.95). For more information about DMT 2.0 and opportunities for using DMT in a large group or institution please visit www.datamatchtool.com.

Natural pain relief from poisonous shrub
2011-07-12
An extract of the poisonous shrub Jatropha curcas acts as a strong painkiller and may have a mode of action different from conventional analgesics, such as morphine and other pharmaceuticals. Details of tests are reported in the current issue of the International Journal of Biomedical Engineering and Technology.
Omeh Yusuf and Ezeja Maxwell of the Micheal Okpara University of Agriculture in Umudike, Nigeria, explain how J. curcas, also known as the "physic nut" is a perennial shrub that grows to 5 meters in height and belongs to the Euphobiaceace family. It is native ...
Online consumers willing to pay premium for Net privacy, says study in INFORMS Journal
2011-07-12
Online consumers thought to be motivated primarily by savings are, in fact, often willing to pay a premium for purchases from online vendors with clear, protective privacy policies, according to a new study in the current issue of a journal of the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS®).
"The Effect of Online Privacy Information on Purchasing Behavior: An Experimental Study" is by Janice Y. Tsai, Serge Egelman, Lorrie Cranor, and Alessandro Acquisti of Carnegie Mellon University. The study appears in the current issue of the INFORMS journal ...
All-cause mortality rates are lower among moderate drinkers than among abstainers
2011-07-12
The author of this paper set out to determine the extent to which potential "errors" in many early epidemiologic studies led to erroneous conclusions about an inverse association between moderate drinking and coronary heart disease (CHD). His analysis is based on prospective data for more than 124,000 persons interviewed in the U.S. National Health Interview Surveys of 1997 through 2000 and avoids the pitfalls of some earlier studies. He concludes that the so-called "errors" have not led to erroneous results, and that there is a strong protective effect of moderate drinking ...
Paddington Brands Launches 90+ Rated Agoston Spanish Red Wines Nationally Through Walgreens

MU psychology study finds key early skills for later math learning
2011-07-12
COLUMBIA, Mo. – Psychologists at the University of Missouri have identified the beginning of first grade math skills that teachers and parents should target to effectively improve children's later math learning.
A long-term psychology study indicates that beginning first graders that understand numbers, the quantities those numbers represent, and low-level arithmetic will have better success in learning mathematics through the end of fifth grade, and other studies suggest throughout the rest of their lives.
"Math is critical for success in many fields, and the United ...
Research shows 'BPA-free' bottles live up to manufacturers' claims
2011-07-12
CINCINNATI—The alarm caused by bisphenol A (BPA) presence in reusable plastic bottles resulted in a recent industry change, producing products made with supposed BPA-free materials.
Prompted by requests and concern from consumers, University of Cincinnati (UC) researchers wanted to see if these alternatives—including products made with stainless steel and coated aluminum—were truly giving the consumer an option free of BPA.
In a study reported in the July 8, 2011 advance online edition of the journal Chemosphere, Scott Belcher, PhD, associate professor in the pharmacology ...
Drinking until you forget leads to injuries for college kids
2011-07-12
CHICAGO --- "I don't remember how I got home from the party." This could be a text from last night to one hard-partying college student from another.
New research from Northwestern Medicine shows that 50 percent of college drinkers report at least one alcohol-induced memory blackout -- a period of amnesia -- in the past year during a drinking binge. Despite being fully conscious during such blackouts, students could not recall specific events, such as how they got to a bar, party or their own front door.
Published in Injury Prevention, May 2011, the study found college ...
'Healthy' habits linked to childhood obesity in China
2011-07-12
Teenaged boys from well-off Chinese families who say they are physically active and eat plenty of vegetables but few sweets are more likely to be overweight, according to a study led by researchers at the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California (USC).
The study, published in the July 2011 issue of the American Journal of Health Behavior, is one of the first to examine how weight among Chinese adolescents relates to factors like sleep duration, physical activity, diet and general demographics. Most of what the research team found runs counter to ...
Large human study links phthalates, BPA and thyroid hormone levels
2011-07-12
ANN ARBOR, Mich.---A link between chemicals called phthalates and thyroid hormone levels was confirmed by the University of Michigan in the first large-scale and nationally representative study of phthalates and BPA in relation to thyroid function in humans.
The U-M School of Public Health study also reported suggestive findings consistent with a previously reported link between a chemical called bisphenol-A and thyroid hormone levels. BPA is best known for its use in certain plastic water bottles and in the linings of canned foods.
Researchers used publicly available ...
Data revealing migrations of larval reef fish vital for designing networks of marine protected areas
2011-07-12
Networks of biologically-connected marine protected areas need to be carefully planned, taking into account the open ocean migrations of marine fish larvae that take them from one home to another sometimes hundreds of kilometers away.
Research published today in the international journal Oecologia sheds new light on the dispersal of marine fish in their larval stages, important information for the effective design of marine protected areas (MPAs), a widely advocated conservation tool.
Using a novel genetic analysis, researchers at the University of Windsor, Canada, ...
