Complex fuzzy linear systems
In paper the complex fuzzy linear equation nbspnbspin which nbspis a crisp complex matrix and nbspis an arbitrary complex fuzzy numbers vector, is investigated. The complex fuzzy linear system is converted to a equivalent high order fuzzy linear system . Numerical procedure for calculating the complex fuzzy solution is designed and thenbsp sufficient condition for the existence of strong complex fuzzy solution is derived. A example is given to illustrate the proposed method.nbs
Circulating FGF21 Levels Are Progressively Increased from the Early to End Stages of Chronic Kidney Diseases and Are Associated with Renal Function in Chinese
Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a hepatic hormone involved in the regulation of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. This study aims to test the hypothesis that elevated FGF21 concentrations are associated with the change of renal function and the presence of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in the different stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression.0.05).Plasma FGF21 levels are significantly increased with the development of early- to end-stage CKD and are independently associated with renal function and adverse lipid profiles in Chinese population. Understanding whether increased FGF21 is associated with myocardial hypertrophy in CKD requires further study
