Status of human cystic echinococcosis based on hospital records in Mazandaran Province: A first registry-based evidence.

Background: Human cystic echinococcosis, as an emerging neglected parasitic disease, is caused by tapeworms of the genus spp. Because of the medical and economic importance, this study aims to review the epidemiology and clinical features of hydatidosis in patients admitted to medical and surgical wards in three referral teaching hospitals over 15 years in Mazandaran Province, northern Iran.

Methods: Data were collected from hospital records that were accessible via the hospital information system (HIS) between 2005 and 2019 (15 years).

Simultaneous Sensor and Actuator Fault Reconstruction by Using a Sliding Mode Observer, Fuzzy Stability Analysis, and a Nonlinear Optimization Tool.

This paper proposes a Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy sliding mode observer (SMO) for simultaneous actuator and sensor fault reconstruction in a class of nonlinear systems subjected to unknown disturbances. First, the nonlinear system is represented by a TS fuzzy model with immeasurable premise variables. By filtering the output of the TS fuzzy model, an augmented system whose actuator fault is a combination of the original actuator and sensor faults is constructed.

Two decades of echinococcosis/hydatidosis research: Bibliometric analysis based on the web of science core collection databases (2000-2019).

and are responsible for serious health and economic implications for humans and animals. This study was designed to conduct a bibliometric analysis of global research on echinococcosis/hydatidosis included in the Web of Science Core Collection databases from 2000 to 2019. A total of 7066 relevant articles between 2000 and 2019 were identified.

Scientometric Analysis of Global Research on Trichomoniasis in Scopus Database (1922 -2018).

Background: Trichomoniasis is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) prevalent in different parts of the world. The present study was designed to evaluate the scientific output and collaboration of researchers worldwide on trichomoniasis.

Methods: In the present scientometric research, all papers conducted on Trichomonas vaginalis (T.

Comparative Study of the Effectiveness of sub mucosal Partial Inferior Turbinectomy and Out fracture of Inferior Turbinate in the Nasal Respiratory Function of Rhinoplasty Patients.

Introduction: The inferior turbinate is a critical and dynamic structure during rhinoplasty in the internal valve. Many surgeons try to preventively reduce its resistance against the path in the post-rhinoplasty period. To this end, the two methods of "sub mucosal partial inferior turbinectomy" and "inferior turbinate out fracture" are compared in the present study.

The effects of cryopreservation on angiogenesis modulation activity of human amniotic membrane.

Amniotic membrane (AM), as the innermost layer of placenta, has side dependent effects on the angiogenesis. Cryopreservation is a necessary process to avoid the challenging problems of fresh tissues; a procedure which makes the AM ready-to-use. Since the cryopreservation can influence the AM characteristics for experimental and clinical purposes, in this study the effects of cryopreservation were evaluated on angiogenesis modulation activity of the AM compared to fresh tissues in an animal model.
