Novelty Detection is an approach to classification that offers advantages over conventional techniques for monitoring high-integrity systems and manufacturing processes: it is not necessary to provide fault data to the system during development. Instead, providing a sufficiently comprehensive model of the system‟s normal behaviour has been formed, deviations from normal working conditions can b...

NEW DRUGS Victoza Is a New Contender In the Diabetes Arena A drug that helps the pancreas make more insulin has been approved. Lira glutide (Victoza, Novo Nordisk), an incretin mimetic, imitates naturally occurring hormones that encourage insulin production after meals. In comparative trials with exenatide (Byetta, Amylin/ Lilly), a twice-daily incretin mimetic already prescribed for initial or...

The aim of this paper is to address the dilemmas of the paediatric surgeon when facing an isolated, unilateral, congenital hydronephrosis and discuss the strategic options for the management of this condition. Congenital hydronephrosis, the most commonly diagnosed uropathy in children, is usually a benign and self-resolving condition. Nonobstructive hydronephrosis does not require operative tre...

Gelastic syncope or laughter-induced syncope is a rare disease often misdiagnosed as narcolepsy or cataplexy. We report a 54-year-old man with syncopal episodes. Each episode started after laughter, leading to light-headedness with blurring of vision and loss of consciousness for a few seconds. The episodes resolved spontaneously. The treatment of gelastic syncope is the same as that for neural...

In the extended antifield formalism, a quantum BRST differential for anomalous gauge theories is constructed. Local BRST cohomological classes are characterized, besides the form degree and the ghost number, by the length of their descents and of their lifts, and this both in the standard and the extended antifield formalism. It is shown that during the BRST invariant renormalization of a local...

Trust has been considered the "cement" of a society and is much studied in sociology and other social sciences. Most studies, however, have neglected one important aspect of trust: it involves an act of forgiving and showing tolerance toward another's failure. In this study, we refer to this concept as "generous trust" and examine the conditions under which generous trust becomes a more viable ...

In this research, we exploit the regularize framework and proposed an associative classification algorithm for uncertain data. The major recompense of SVM(support vector machine) are: recurrent item sets capture every dominant associations between items in a dataset. These classifiers naturally handle missing values and outliers as they only deal with statistically significant associations whic...

a casual comparative study was made to determine the effect of pregnant women's working conditions on   pregnancy outcome (fetal death, gestational age and birth weight).   600 women, delivered or treated for spontaneous abortion in eleven hospitals of tehran, were interviewed, 200   were working women (the study group) and 400 housewives (the control group).   for collecting information a...
