متن کاملIntensification of Anemia by Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in Hemodialysis Patients
The excessive amounts of parathyroid hormone in secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPTH) is suggested to interfere with normal erythropoiesis. In SHPTH, during chronic renal failure, due to the impairment of erythropoietin synthesis, this effect is more pronounced. In the present study the role of secondary hyperparathyroidism in the severity of anemia was evaluated in hemodialysis patients (n=3...
متن کاملColor Image Enhancement by Fuzzy Intensification
A Gaussian membership function to model image information in spatial domain has been proposed in this paper. We introduce a new contrast intensification operator, which involves a parameter t for enhancement of color images. By minimizing the fuzzy entropy of the image information, the parameter t is calculated globally. A visible improvement in the image quality for human contrast perception i...
