Predicting Length of Stay in Intensive Care Units after Cardiac Surgery: Comparison of Artificial Neural Networks and Adaptive Neuro-fuzzy System.
Conclusions: The adaptive neuro-fuzzy algorithm produces a more accurate model as it applies both the capabilities of a neural network architecture and experts' knowledge as a hybrid algorithm. It identifies nonlinear components, yielding remarkable results for prediction the length of stay, which is a useful calculation output to support ICU management, enabling higher quality of administration and cost reduction.

Neuro-occupation: A self-organizing approach to conflate the brain, context, and occupation.
This article traces the self-organization approach, an assumption of complex systems, to understand how the concepts can be conflated. METHOD.: Deductive category application, a qualitative descriptive method for tracing theoretical assumptions, was drawn from the lived experiences of 11 Iranian participants with cerebrovascular accidents. Matrix construction aided collection of data for analysis. FINDINGS.: The self-organization approach, underpinning neuro-occupation, was shown to be traceable, explaining how occupational participation may be influenced by the brain circular causality and perturbations provided...

Dietary supplementation with Allium hirtifolium and/or Astragalus hamosus improved memory and reduced neuro-inflammation in the rat model of Alzheimer ’s disease
Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, e-First Articles. Allium hirtifolium Boiss and Astragalus hamosus L. are mentioned in Iranian traditional medicine documentation as therapy for a kind of dementia with the features and symptoms similar to those of Alzheimer ’s disease (AD). In the present study, the effects of these herbs on neuro-inflammation and memory have been evaluated as new therapies in amyloid beta (Aβ)-induced memory impairment model. Separate groups of rats were fed with A. hirtifolium or A. hamosus extract (both 100 mg/(kg·day)−1) star ted 1 week before stereotaxic surgery to 24 h before behav...

Spatial prediction of human brucellosis (HB) using a GIS-based adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS)
CONCLUSION: The findings may have important implications for public health. The emergence of the hot spots in the east of the province can be a warning to the health system. Health authorities can use the findings of this study to predict the spread of HB and perform HB prevention programs. They can also investigate the factors affecting the prevalence of the disease, identify high-risk areas, and ultimately allocate resources to high-risk regions.PMID:33979640 | DOI:10.1016/j.actatropica.2021.105951

The fear of COVID-19 and flourishing: the mediating role of search for meaning and presence of meaning
Curr Psychol. 2022 Nov 8:1-10. doi: 10.1007/s12144-022-03872-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPast researches have found that sense of control and meaning in life can act as a protective factor against fear of COVID-19 pandemic. The current study examined whether the search for meaning and the presence of meaning could mediate the link between fear of COVID-19 and flourishing. A total of 312 Iranians who were identified by snowball sampling were recruited as the subjects of the cross-sectional study. The participants gave their consent to complete the Meaning in Life Scale, Flourishing Scale, and Fear of COVID-19 Scale. Th...

Decreased Level of IL-37 Correlates Negatively with Inflammatory Cytokines in Cerebrospinal Fluid of Patients with Neuro-Behcet's Disease.
CONCLUSION: IL-37 expression increased in NBD patients, and correlated with disease activity. Our data conclude that IL-37 could be a disease marker in NBD, however it requires further studies. PMID: 31885007 [PubMed - in process]

Sensors, Vol. 20, Pages 1723: Optimizing an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System for Spatial Prediction of Landslide Susceptibility Using Four State-of-the-Art Metaheuristic Techniques
Alamri Four state-of-the-art metaheuristic algorithms including the genetic algorithm (GA), particle swarm optimization (PSO), differential evolutionary (DE), and ant colony optimization (ACO) are applied to an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for spatial prediction of landslide susceptibility in Qazvin Province (Iran). To this end, the landslide inventory map, composed of 199 identified landslides, is divided into training and testing landslides with a 70:30 ratio. To create the spatial database, thirteen landslide conditioning factors are considered within the geographic information system (GIS). Notabl...

Neuro-behavioral Profile and Toxicity of the Essential Oil of Dorema ‎ammoniacum gum as an ...
In this study, we focused on the neuro-behavioral profile, toxicity, and‎possible mechanisms of action of‎ Dorema ammoniacum gum essential oil (DAG-EO). For this purpose, passive avoidance and Y-maze tests were performed to evaluate the potential effect‎of DAG-EO in the attenuation of memory impairment induced by 49 days administration of D-‎galactose and acute injection of scopolamine. Anticonvulsant and anti-nociceptive activities of DAG-EO were evaluated in the pentylenetetrazole and‎maximal electroshock-induced models of seizure and acetic acid-induced writhing tests, respectively.‎To find the p...
