Developing an Intelligent System for Diagnosis of Asthma Based on Artificial Neural Network.

Introduction: Lack of proper diagnosis and inadequate treatment of asthma, leads to physical and financial complications. This study aimed to use data mining techniques and creating a neural network intelligent system for diagnosis of asthma.

Methods: The study population is the patients who had visited one of the Lung Clinics in Tehran.

A comparison of ice cold water pretreatment and α-bromonaphthalene cytogenetic method for identification of Papaver species.

The plants belonging to many species in genus Papaver are very similar and have very small chromosomes that make identification very difficult. The study aimed to compare the effects of α-bromonaphtalene and ice cold water pretreatment to identify chromosomes of Papaver species collected from different areas of Iranian West Azerbaijan and Turkish Van, Agri and, Hakkari provinces. The seeds were germinated in Jacobson trays at 24°C under continuous light.
