AIMS To investigate urinary nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels in interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) patients after hyaluronic acid (HA) therapy. METHODS Thirty-three patients with IC/BPS were prospectively studied; a group of 45 age-matched healthy subjects served as controls. All IC/BPS patients received nine intravesical HA insti...

In this study, we propose an optimized network information security evaluation GRA-BPNN model based on gray correlation analysis method combined with BP neural model, and make corresponding optimization for index. Simulation experiments are conducted to analyze the experimental simulation results show that test sample values reach best training performance at 7th iteration after 13 iterations, ...

Abstract Surface roughness and heat-affected zone (HAZ) are the important features which influence performance of laser-drilled products. Understanding laser process parameters on these responses identifying cutting conditions for simultaneous optimization a primary requirement in order to improve drilling performance. Nevertheless, no such contribution has been made literature during AISI 303 ...

GRA 06128 & 06129 are paired achondrites [1], with unique mineral proportions (75% oligoclase), mineral compositions, and oxygen isotope ratios. They appear to represent alkalic igneous rock from a hitherto unsampled differentiated parent body, modified significantly by thermal and shock metamorphism. Samples and Methods. Bulk samples were examined at JSC during splitting for consortium analyse...

The college tennis classroom teaching effect evaluation is viewed as the multiattribute group decision making (MAGDM). probabilistic double hierarchy linguistic term set (PDHLTS) not only conforms to people’s language expression habit of “adverb + adjective” but also can accurately depict its importance in real MAGDM. Therefore, this paper comes up with grey relational analysis (PDHL-GRA) metho...

Aiming to determine the quantitative sapling characteristics that are important for nursing methods, present study was carried out on 2-year-old naked root Anatolian Black Pine (Pinus nigra Arnold. subsp. pallasiana (Lamb.) Holmboe) saplings obtained from four different seed origins Denizli Forest Sapling Nursery Directorate. In this study, selection of these examined using multicriteria decisi...
