Congenital fibrinogen deficiency (CFD) is a rare bleeding disorder caused by mutations in FGA, FGB, and FGG. We sought to comprehensively characterize patients with CFD using PRO-RBDD (Prospective Rare Bleeding Disorders Database). Clinical phenotypes, laboratory, and genetic features were investigated using retrospective data from the PRO-RBDD.

This research is of great importance because it applies artificial intelligence methods, more specifically the Random Forest algorithm and the Anfis method to research the key factors that influence the success of students in vocational schools. Identifying these influencing factors is not only useful for improving curriculum and practice but also provides valuable guidance to help students master the material more effectively. The main goal of this research is to penetrate deeply into the core of the factors that influence the success of students in vocational schools, using two different methods.

Age estimation has become inordinately significant for human beings for many reasons, such as detecting legal and criminal responsibility and other social events like a marriage license, birth certificate, etc. This paper aims to decide on the most desirable machine learning algorithm (from conventional machine learning algorithms to deep learning) for dental age estimation based on buccal bone level. The database consisted of 150 CBCT images (73 males and 77 females) from an existing base of the Faculty of Dental Medicine with Clinics, University of Sarajevo, aged 20-69.
