The starting point of this paper are the Mittag–Leffler polynomials investigated in details by H. Bateman in [1]. Based on generalized integer powers of real numbers and deformed exponential function, we introduce deformed Mittag–Leffler polynomials defined by appropriate generating function. We investigate their recurrence relations, hypergeometric representation and orthogonality. Since they ...

background pilonidal disease is a common condition that affects younger people in which over half of the affected patients present with a sacrococcygeal abscess. this study was performed to compare the outcome of excision and primary closure with that of rhomboid excision and flap procedure in patients with uncomplicated pilo­nidal disease. methods a total of 90 consecutive patients with piloni...

purpose: mesh technique is the standard for inguinal hernia repair because of less recurrence,   but it is inferior or equal to sutured technique in case of other post-operative complications   such as chronic pain. this clinical trial set out to compare these two techniques.   materials and methods: a total number of 322 cases of unilateral inguinal hernia in participants   older than 18 years...

conclusions: relationships between the spiritual intelligence and resiliency parameters with withdrawal time show that these parameters can have a role in relapse protection among addicted people. results: there were significant positive correlations between resiliency and scores of spiritual intelligence as well as with subscales of spiritual intelligence. in addition, there were significant p...

results there was no statistical difference between the 2 groups with respect to the recurrence rate (p > 0.05). although the recurrence interval was longer for the metformin group, this increase was not statistical significant (p > 0.05). furthermore, tumor recurrence had no correlation with sex or the grade of the tumors. conclusions according to our findings, it seems that metformin has no c...

purpose: to report the clinical, radiological, pathological and therapeutic features of a case of recurrent cavernous hemangioma. case report: a 32 year old lady with progressive decrease of vision in her right eye associated with blepharoptosis was diagnosed to have orbital cavernous hemangioma which was excised. 10 years later she presented with recurrent proptosis and progressive eye deviati...

background postoperative relapse is a common feature of crohn's disease (cd) in western countries but its frequency and risk factors have not been studied in the middle east where there is a rapid upsurge in the incidence of cd. this study aims to research the frequency and risk factors of its recurrence after surgery among 566 iranian patients with cd in tehran, iran. methods all 566 patients ...

background upper gastrointestinal bleeding (ugib) is a major healthcare problem and is the most frequent gastrointestinal reason for admission to hospital. we aimed to investigate the prognosis of patients with ugib referred to a referral hospital in northern iran in 2013. methods all patients with ugib who admitted to sayyad shirazi hospital, in gorgan, northern iran, in 2013 were enrolled. th...

Introduction: In recent years, the surgical management of angiofibroma has been greatly influenced by the use of endoscopic techniques. However, large tumors that extend into difficult anatomic sites present major challenges for management by either endoscopy or an open-surgery approach which needs new technique for the complete en block resection.   Materials and Methods: In a prospective obse...
