It has been argued in Arnold and Manjunath (2021) that the bivariate pseudo-Poisson distribution will be model of choice for data with one equidispersed marginal other over-dispersed. This is due to its simple structure, straightforward parameter estimation fast computation. In current note, we introduce effects concomitant variables on parameters explore distributional inferential aspects augm...

Granuloma annulare is self-limiting cutaneous condition of unknown etiology, causing necrobiotic dermal and subcutaneous papules. A number of conditions have been described in association with Granuloma annulare, including lymphoma, anemia, intestinal bleeding, seronegative arthralgia, vasculitis and autoimmune thyroiditis. This manuscript, as the first report of this combination in Iran, descr...

behcet’s disease is a rare immune mediated systemic vasculitis which besides it’s more frequent involvement of eyes and skin,   sometimes present with aortic pseudo aneurysm and more rarely cardiac inflammatory masses.a 51-year-old patient with behçet’s disease presented with two symptomatic aortic pseudoaneurysms concomitant with a right atrial mass. computed tomography (ct) revealed one supra...

background and aim: some risk factors for obstructive sleep apnea (osa) such as upper respiratory airways abnormalities and obesity overlap with the risk factors for eustachian tube dysfunction (etd). in this study, we investigated the prevalence of etd in a population of patients with osa. methods: tubal dysfunction was determined by tympanometry and inflation-deflation test in 36 patients dia...
