We categorize the user comments posted on YouTube video sharing website based on their relevance to the video content given by the description associated with the video posted. Comments are analysed for polarity and are further segregated as positive or negative. A comparative analysis of classifier using the Bag of Words and Association List approaches is presented.

A classifier-based tool for segregation of comments in YouTube video sharing website is discussed. Comments are classified into one of the four categories such as relevant, irrelevant, positive and negative based on the relevance of the comments to the video content given by description associated with the video posted. For the comments taken from Natural Language Processing, Sports and Movies domains, we report an average accuracy of 90.58% in recognizing relevant comments and 97.02% in recognizing irrelevant comments. Further, classification accuracy for positive and negative comments are 95.68% and 97.88% respectively in the specified domains.

Background Mysodelle is a 200 mcg misoprostol, vaginal delivery system. It is a PGE1 analogue and accepted as a method of IOL by Scottish medicine consortium in 2014 (Medicines Health and Regulatory Authority; Wing et al., 2013 ). Aims The main objective of this project was to determine efficacy of Mysodelle with regards to time interval between insertions to delivery. We also studied the safety profile of Mysodelle with regards to operative delivery rates, foetal concerns and incidence of hyperstimulation. Methodology A protocol which outlined the criteria for suitability for the use of Mysodelle was developed. This method was used for IOL for primiparous women more than 38 weeks of gestations with unfavourable cervix and intact membranes with no foetal concerns on scan, i.e. suboptimal growth or reduced liquor. Mysodelle was left in situ for maximum duration of 24 hours and CTG was monitored every 4 hours. The data was collected prospectively over 1 year from January 2016. Results We reviewed 50 women for the study period of one year. All women were primiparous with singleton term gestations between 38 + 5 weeks to term +11 days. The indications for IOL included postdates, reduced foetal movement, big baby and advanced maternal age. Following the use of Mysodelle, 55% of the women progressed to active labour and did not require oxytocin on labour ward. In 20% of the women, Mysodelle was removed for suspicious CTG or tachysystole. Four women failed IOL with Mysodelle. 14% women had hyperstimulation response to Mysodelle and needed terbutaline. 46% women had spontaneous vaginal delivery and 24% needed instrumental delivery. Remaining 30% patients delivered by caesarean section. The median time from Mysodelle administration to vaginal delivery was 21 hours (95% confidence interval 18.8-26.8 hours). There were no neonatal adverse outcomes. Conclusions Results at AMH overall are in keeping with those from EXPEDITE study (Wing et al. 2013 ). It was found to be more efficacious in terms of insertion to delivery time, however, was associated with more tachysystole and hyperstimulation requiring terbutaline as previously highlighted in Cochrane review (Alfirevic and Weeks 2006 ; Hofmeyr et al. 2010 ). There was no increased risk of operative delivery or adverse neonatal outcome with the use of Mysodelle. A reduction in time to vaginal delivery and time to active labour associated with misoprostol vaginal delivery system may be an advantage for patients and the service (ISD Scotland 2013 ), but it needs to be seen if this benefit is offset due to increased requirements for foetal monitoring due to uterine tachysystole and hyperstimulation. MHRA have advised that Mysodelle can cause uterine tachysystole, that might not respond to tocolytic treatment. (MHRA medicine update 2018).
