hpv vaccine has been recently added to the iran drug list, so decision makers need information beyond that available from rcts to recommend funding for this vaccination. modeling and economic studies have addressed some of those information needs. we reviewed cost effectiveness studies to find a suitable model for iranian population to determine the potential cost effectiveness of hpv vaccine p...

this paper studies the effects of the structural variables of the iranian industries sector on the welfare cost using to the structure-conduct-performance (scp) theory. in other words, we investigate the role of structural components and their effects on the size of the welfare cost in iran's industry sector. we have used the leibenstein's model to calculate the deadweight loss and then the pan...

conclusions the use of sof + pr regimen or ldv/sof can significantly reduce the incidence of complications associated with the disease. for example, short and long-term outcomes are better than the current drug regimens for hcv genotype 1 patients in all stages of the disease. objectives this study is aimed to assess the cost-effectiveness of the three drug regimens of pegylated interferon and ...

in this paper, the study deals with the lead time and setup reduction problem in the vendor-purchaser integrated inventory model. the cost of capital (i.e., opportunity cost) is one of the key factors in making the inventory and investment decisions. lead time is an important element in any inventory system. the proposed model is presents an integrated inventory model with controllable lead tim...

heretofore, a vast spectrum of pattern recognition methods has been considered by researchers to design credit scoring models. but what has not been considered enough in these studies is the lack of consideration of the needs of this subject which differentiate it from a simple classification. it is necessary to observe the costs of a wrong classification, because practically the cost of improp...

this paper addresses a multi-criteria decision based methodology to develop a road network cost function for route finding analysis in a geographic information system (gis). over the years, several studies relating to route planning process in gis and intelligent transportation systems (its) have been conducted, most of which rely on the use of one-dimensional variables like distance or time as...

conclusions the use of tdf in patients with hbeag-negative chb seemed to be a highly cost-effective strategy. compared with the other available medication options, tdf was the most cost-saving strategy. thus, tdf may be the best option as a first-line medication. patients can also be switched from other medications to tdf. results the results revealed that the tdf treatment strategy was more ef...
