with the increase of the volume of information and the progress in technology, the deficiency of traditional algorithms for fast information retrieval becomes more clear. when large volumes of data are to be handled, the use of neural network as an artificial intelligent technique is a suitable method to increase the information retrieval speed. neural networks present a suitable representation...

Information retrieval can be achieved through computerized processes by generating a list of relevant responses to a query. The document processor, matching function and query analyzer are the main components of an information retrieval system. Document retrieval system is fundamentally based on: Boolean, vector-space, probabilistic, and language models. In this paper, a new methodology for mat...

during endodontic treatment, clinicians may face endodontic procedural mishaps such as broken instruments, which is a complex situation especially when the file breaks beyond the apex. this condition is associated with potential risk of contamination, which compromises the healing process. management of a broken instrument beyond the apex is difficult and time consuming and requires creativity ...

B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level is known to increase in patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis. In this systematic review, we aimed to discuss the possible association between plasma BNP level and the success rate of percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy. PubMed and Scopus databases were searched systematically, using the following key terms: “B-type natriuretic peptide” OR “BN...

background: percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (peg) is the standard method for enteral feeding in patients predicted to require long-term enteral nutrition because of dysphagia. the aim of this study was to assess the complications of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy performed using the pull technique. methods: between january 2011 and december 2011, 74 patients underwent percutaneous endo...

results the search criteria yielded 16 manuscripts on percutaneous adhesiolysis assessing post-surgery syndrome. of these, only 4 randomized trials met inclusion criteria for methodological quality assessment, 3 of them were of high quality; and the fourth manuscript was of low quality. based on these 3 randomized controlled trials, 2 of them with one-day procedure and one with a 3-day procedur...
