Background & aim: Birth asphyxia is a serious clinical problem and a leading cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity worldwide. The majority of neonatal deaths arise in low- and middle-income countries. We sought to address birth asphyxia and its associated factors among newborns delivered in Jimma zone public hospitals, Southwest Ethiopia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 36...

in this paper, a new spectral-iterative method is employed to give approximate solutions of fractional logistic differential equation. this approach is based on combination of two different methods, i.e. the iterative method cite{35} and the spectral method. the method reduces the differential equation to systems of linear algebraic equations and then the resulting systems are solved by a numer...

Background & objectives: Dental caries is one of the most common chronic diseases and affected by many determinants identified as social inequalities. So, this study explored how social determinants of health had impacts on dental health in school children of Hamadan. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted based on data related to the examination of 14858 students in Hamadan in 2016...

In Gao and Huang [Z.X. Gao, T.Z Huang, Convergence of AOR method, Appl. Math. Comput. 176 (2006) 134–140] some practical sufficient conditions for the convergence of the AOR (accelerated overrelaxation) method for solving linear system Ax 1⁄4 b, with A being doubly diagonally dominant matrix, are presented. Using a different approach we will give some improvements in both cases, when the matrix...

We investigate an AOR-Newton method and an AOR method for solving a system of nonlinear equations F (x) = 0, where F is strongly monotone, locally Lipschitz continuous but not necessarily differentiable. The convergence intervals of parameters for the AOR-Newton method and AOR method are given. Numerical examples show that these AOR-type methods can converge faster than the corresponding SORtyp...
