Abstract The existing truncated variable method to generate random variate cannot be applied when indeterminacy is presented in either the parameters or observations. This paper addresses simulation under indeterminate environment. will introduced using DUS-neutrosophic Weibull distribution. algorithm and generation. Extensive tables for various values of variables are presented. proposed study...

A 9-year-old girl with grade 4-5 right vesico-ureteric reflux (VUR) into a solitary collecting system was initially treated with endoscopic Deflux injection. Micturition cystourethrogram (MCUG) performed after 6 months showed a grade 1-2 reflux. After 3 years, MCUG repeated due to recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI), showed severe VUR. DMSA renal scan showed a non-functioning right kidney. ...

The purpose of this study was to examine whether duplex ultrasonography (DUS) or MR angiography (MRA) or CT angiography (CTA) is more applicable to use as alternative modality in terms of sensitivity and specificity for detection of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). A search of the medical databases was performed for describing AAA evaluation and detection. Twenty eight studies were found and me...

Abstract Background To compare the diagnostic accuracy of Doppler ultrasound (DUS) with contrast-enhanced (CEUS) for detection iliac vein stent stenosis using multidetector computed tomography venography (MDCTV) as reference method. Methods Patients obstructive disease treated nitinol stents (Smart Control, Cordis, USA) between January 2016 and December 2017 were consecutively included in this ...

Background Systemic hypertension is a major risk factor both for stroke and for myocardial infarction. The search for underlying treatable cause is a part of the management of a hypertensive patient. Renal vascular hypertension is the most common form of potentially curable hypertension and if untreated may terminate in renal failure. It has been estimated that 10% to 20% of new patients presen...

OBJECTIVES To assess the effect of the ET-receptor antagonist bosentan on skin fibrosis and functionality in patients with SSc. METHODS In this prospective, open-label, non-comparative trial, a total of 10 patients with SSc received 62.5 mg of bosentan twice daily for 4 weeks and then 125 mg twice daily for 20 weeks. The primary endpoint was skin thickening as measured by the modified Rodnan ...

Objective: To evaluate the presence of flow by Doppler ultrasound (DUS) in the wrist and finger joints (carpometacarpal 1 (CMC1), metacarpophalangeal (MCP), and proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints) of healthy controls. Methods: Twenty seven healthy volunteers (15 women, 12 men; mean age 45 years, range 18–93) with a total of 324 joints were examined by DUS. The synovial vascularisation was de...
