ANN-based chaotic PRNG in the novel jerk chaotic system and its application for the image encryption via 2-D Hilbert curve.

In this paper, we introduce a category of Novel Jerk Chaotic (NJC) oscillators featuring symmetrical attractors. The proposed jerk chaotic system has three equilibrium points. We show that these equilibrium points are saddle-foci points and unstable.

Lower Pole Stones Are Associated with Low Stone-Free Rates in Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery: A Myth or Fact? - A Matched Case-Control Study from the RIRSearch Group.

Introduction: There are conflicting results in the literature regarding the efficacy of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) in lower pole stones. This study aimed to evaluate RIRS outcomes in lower pole stones by forming matched case-control groups.

Methods: The data of 491 patients who were diagnosed with kidney stones and underwent RIRS were retrospectively included in the study.
