objective: quality of life (qol) assessment has been employed increasingly to evaluate outcome among patients with chronic medical conditions. such assessment could be adversely affected by psychiatric disorders, co existing with such a medical condition. method: a cross sectional study of 251 out-patients with diabetes mellitus was done at a nigerian university teaching hospital using the comp...

In this study, a new and efficient approach is presented for numerical solution of Fredholm integro-differential equations (FIDEs) of the second kind on unbounded domain with degenerate kernel based on operational matrices with respect to generalized Laguerre polynomials(GLPs). Properties of these polynomials and operational matrices of integration, differentiation are introduced and are ultili...

colonization of nontypeable haemophilus influenzae (nthi) in nasopharynx causes respiratory tract disease. in 80% of clinical isolates, hmw proteins are the major adhesions and induce protective antibodies in the hosts. therefore, it can be used as a vaccine candidate. the aim of this study is designing and cloning of the conserved regions of nthi hmw1 core binding domain.in this study, the sta...

microtubule affinity-regulating kinase 2 (mark2) protein has a substantial role in regulation of vital cellular processes like induction of polarity, regulation of cell junctions, cytoskeleton structure and cell differentiation. the abnormal function of this protein has been associated with a number of pathological conditions like alzheimer disease, autism, several carcinomas and development of...

in this paper, a smart method is designed in order to classify healthy and illness ducks using their emission voice. for this purpose, firstly, the birds based on their healthy condition are divided into the different categories and then their voices are saved using a microphone and data acquisition card. gained signals were transformed from time-domain signal to frequency domain using fast fou...

Domain generalization is the task of learning models that generalize to unseen target domains. We propose a simple yet effective method for domain generalization, named cross-domain ensemble distillation (XDED), learns domain-invariant features while encouraging model converge flat minima, which recently turned out be sufficient condition generalization. To this end, our generates an output log...
