Neuro-fuzzy prediction model of occupational injuries in mining.

This study investigates the possibility of developing a unique model for predicting work-related injuries in Serbian underground coal mines using neural networks and fuzzy logic theory. Accidents are common due to the unique nature of underground mineral extraction involving people, machinery and limited workplaces. A universal model for predicting occupational accidents takes into account influential factors such as organizational aspects, personal and collective protective equipment, on-the-job training and leadership factors.

A Review of Current Perspectives on Motoric Insufficiency Rehabilitation following Pediatric Stroke.

Pediatric stroke (PS) is an injury caused by the occlusion or rupture of a blood vessel in the central nervous system (CNS) of children, before or after birth. Hemiparesis is the most common motoric deficit associated with PS in children. Therefore, it is important to emphasize that PS is a significant challenge for rehabilitation, especially since the consequences may also appear during the child's growth and development, reducing functional capacity.

The importance of assessing general motor activity in premature infants for predicting neurological outcomes.

Introduction: Conventional methods of neurological assessment of infants can detect nervous system damage, but also have a weakness, i.e., the inability to make predictions for neurological deficits.

Potential role of IFN-γ and IL-5 in sepsis prediction of preterm neonates.

Not fully maturated immune system in preterm neonates may contribute to the increased susceptibility to infection. The levels of some cytokines can be useful in the prediction and diagnosis of sepsis in premature neonates. In the present study, we evaluated the potential predictive role of IFN-γ and IL-5 in cord and venous blood, together with the determination of C-reactive protein and procalcitonin (PCT) for sepsis development in premature neonates.

The anesthetic action of some polyhalogenated ethers-Monte Carlo method based QSAR study.

Up to this date, there has been an ongoing debate about the mode of action of general anesthetics, which have postulated many biological sites as targets for their action. However, postoperative nausea and vomiting are common problems in which inhalational agents may have a role in their development. When a mode of action is unknown, QSAR modelling is essential in drug development.

[Aquatic exercise in the treatment of children with cerebral palsy].

Introduction: Aquatic exercise is one of the most popular supplementary treatments for children with neuro-motor impairment, especially for cerebral palsy (CP). As water reduces gravity force which increases postural stability, a child with CP exercises more easily in water than on land.

Objective: The aim of the study was to examine aquatic exercise effects on gross motor functioning, muscle tone and cardiorespiratory endurance in children with spastic CP.
