This work proposes a fuzzy rule extraction methodology for a self-tuning fuzzy controller based on the fuzzy clustering method (FCM) and the similarity approach technique. The similarity technique and phase plane trajectory method are used to even lower the acquired rules. To show a potential rule extraction scheme, the self-tuning fuzzy-logic-based proportional-derivative (STFLPDC) with 49 expert fuzzy rules and 49 clustered fuzzy gain rules is used. The utility of the approach is validated using common clustering validity indices. With 49 initial clustered fuzzy rules, the suggested method addressed oxygen supply in a human respiratory model. After further reduction using the similarity strategy, 29 and 14 fuzzy rules remained. Parallel to this, a real-time benchmark application using 49, 21, and 16 extracted fuzzy gain rules is used to access the performance of a lab-based overhead crane. Finally, to investigate control performance in both models, the phase plane trajectory concept is used to generate as few as 13 fuzzy gain rules.

The COVID-19 pandemic has been a global health crisis that has resulted in significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Sarcoidosis, a chronic inflammatory disease, may potentially affect the course and outcomes of COVID-19 patients. This study aims to evaluate the impact of sarcoidosis on the outcomes of hospitalized COVID-19 patients.

The fashion industry is a significant contributor to global pollution, which can adversely impact lung health. This review examines the impact of the fashion industry and textiles on lung health and the pathogens involved, as reported in recent studies published within the last five years. We discuss the various sources of air pollutants, toxic fibers, and allergens in the fashion industry and textiles that can contribute to lung diseases and infections. Furthermore, we highlight the importance of taking appropriate preventative measures to minimize these risks and ensure better lung health

Venous thromboembolism is condition characterized by the presence of blood clot that resides in the venous system. It encompasses deep vein thrombosis which is represented by development of de novo blood clot in the deep venous system of the limbs (commonly lower limbs) and pulmonary embolism, which emerges as the preformed blood clots mobilize and occlude the pulmonary circulation. Here, we present a case of a 44 year old lady who was diagnosed with pulmonary embolism proven by CT pulmonary angiogram despite having a negative d-dimer assay.
