today, expert systems are widely applied in medicine for prognosis, diagnosis, checkup, and treatment of various kinds of diseases. a comprehensive system for the checkup and treatment of different types of diabetes is still lacking. this paper reports development of such a system, its validation, and its utility in facilitating medical decision-making and supporting self-care.

background: early detection of proneness to hypertension may help an individual to lead a healthy life by altering the life style. subjects having the predisposing factors of hypertension tend to show higher and prolonged responsiveness to blood pressure following stress. methods: normotensive, non-smoking healthy sedentary male students and staff of nepal medical college (n=50, age group 18-35...

Medical diagnostics elaboration many times is a distributed and cooperative work, which involves more medical human specialists and different medical systems. Recent results described in the literature prove that medical diagnosis problems can be solved efficiently by large-scale medical multiagent systems. Cooperative diagnosing of medical diagnosis problems by large-scale multiagent systems m...

The development of efficient and flexible agent-based medical diagnosis systems represents a recent research direction. Medical multiagent systems may improve the efficiency of traditionally developed medical computational systems, like the medical expert systems. In our previous researches, a novel cooperative medical diagnosis multiagent system called CMDS (Contract Net Based Medical Diagnosi...

background: acute appendicitis is one of the common and urgent illnesses among children.  children usually are unable to help the physicians completely due to weakness in describing the medical history. moreover, acute appendicitis overlaps with conditions of other diseases in terms of symptoms and signs in the first hours of presentation. these conditions lead to unwanted biases as well as err...

Hybrid fuzzy expert systems are one of the most practical intelligent paradigm of soft computing techniques with the high potential for managing uncertainty associated to the medical diagnosis. The potential of genetic algorithm (GA) by inspiring from natural evolution as a learning and optimization technique has been vastly concentrated for improving fuzzy expert systems. In this paper, the GA...
