Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the most common metabolic disorders in pregnancy, which is associated with serious complications. In the event of early diagnosis of this disease, some of the maternal and fetal complications can be prevented. The aim of this study was to early predict gestational diabetes mellitus by two statistical models including artificial neural ne...

in this paper, our focus of attention is the proper propagationof fuzzy degrees in determinization of $nondeterministic$ $fuzzy$$finite$ $tree$ $automata$ (nffta). initially, two determinizationmethods are introduced which have some limitations (one inbehavior preserving and other in type of fuzzy operations). inorder to eliminate these limitations and increasing theefficiency of ffta, we defin...

OBJECTIVE Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a treatable form of chronic pancreatitis that has been increasingly recognised over the last decade. We set out to better understand the current burden of AIP at several academic institutions diagnosed using the International Consensus Diagnostic Criteria, and to describe long-term outcomes, including organs involved, treatments, relapse frequency and ...

The purpose of this retrospective study done on 255 AMD patients evaluated at a low vision rehabilitation service was: 1) to describe the visual function characteristics (VFCs) of AMD patients presenting to visual rehabilitation, 2) to document changes in these VFCs between initial and follow-up rehabilitation visits, and 3) to investigate the relationship of the VFCs found at rehabilitation in...
