Rough set (RS) and fuzzy (FS) theories were developed to account for ambiguity in the data processing. The most persuasive modernist abstraction of an FS is linear Diophantine (LD-FS). This paper introduces a resilient hybrid RS model (LDF-RS) on paired universes based relation (LDF-R). typical method (F-RS) bipolar FRS (BF-RS) two that are more appropriate customizable. By using LDF-level cut ...

To investigate the unique distribution in plasma of apolipoprotein A-IV (apo A-IV) we have determined, in a series of in vitro and in vivo studies, the redistribution among lipoproteins of 125I-apo A-IV. Free 125I-apo A-IV associated predominantly with high density lipoprotein (HDL) (72 +/- 3.5%) in incubations with plasma, and with triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL) (65 +/- 3.0%) in incubati...

Lateral distal femur (LDF) scans by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) are often feasible in children for whom other sites are not measurable. Pediatric reference data for LDF are not available for more recent DXA technology. The objective of this study was to assess older pediatric LDF reference data, construct new reference curves for LDF bone mineral density (BMD), and demonstrate the co...

Laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) is commonly used in combination with reactivity tests to noninvasively evaluate skin sympathetic nerve activity and skin microvascular function. In manual medicine research, LDF has been used as a marker for global peripheral sympathetic nervous system function, but these results should be considered with caution because skin sympathetic nerve activity physiology i...

PURPOSE To apply Fourier analysis to the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness measurements obtained with scanning laser polarimetry (SLP), by using variable corneal compensation, and to evaluate the ability of this method to discriminate glaucomatous from normal eyes. METHODS The study included one eye each of 55 patients with glaucoma and 52 healthy subjects. RNFL thickness measurement...

To determine whether skin blood flow is local or takes part in general regulatory mechanisms, we recorded laser-Doppler flowmetry (LDF; left and right index fingers), blood pressure, muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), R-R interval, and respiration in 10 healthy volunteers and 3 subjects after sympathectomy. We evaluated 1) the synchronism of LDF fluctuations in two index fingers, 2) the ...

PURPOSE To determine whether neural network techniques can improve differentiation between glaucomatous and nonglaucomatous eyes, using the optic disc topography parameters of the Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT; Heidelberg Engineering, Heidelberg, Germany). METHODS With the HRT, one eye was imaged from each of 108 patients with glaucoma (defined as having repeatable visual field defects wit...

PURPOSE The cardiovascular system (CVS) regulation can be studied from a central viewpoint, through heart rate variability (HRV) data, and from a peripheral viewpoint, through laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) signals. Both the central and peripheral CVSs are regulated by several interacting mechanisms, each having its own temporal scale. The central CVS has been the subject of many multiscale stud...

Abstract: It is quite possible that in a process set, process may be having earliest deadline but its performance contribution is low in process set. Scheduling such processes with highest priority does not carry any meaning. Majority of today’s commercial operating system schedule task based on a single parameter however recent research on flexible scheduling showed that a single parameter is ...

Bone quality is an important factor that may determine implant success. In addition to the other parameters that define bone quality, vascularity plays a vital role in the process of osseointegration of dental implants. Laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) is an appropriate method for assessment of tissue vascularity at the level of microcirculation. It is non-invasive, painless and well accepted by t...
