“…In its light, engineering-pedagogical thinking appears simultaneously as an articulated and unarticulated, discrete and continuous communication of engineers-teachers with students, within which the competencies required by the profession and the impulse developing engineering and technical flair and ingenuity are transmitted, “infecting” (V. Shklovsky2) and charging them, thanks to which communication overcomes the boundaries of the chronotope, gaining continuum features, demonstrating its pulsating situational-suprasituative (corpuscular-wave) dualism. …”

Using the fuzzy cognitive map in designing a decision support system in diabetes insipidus by fatemeh haghani, alireza shahraki, Mohebali Rahdar

“…Because the initial symptoms of diabetes insipidus are very similar to diabetes mellitus and the differential diagnosis of different types of diabetes insipidus is important, this disease was investigated in the current research.Methodology: In this research, based on library studies and using the experiences and opinions of experts, the factors of central and renal diabetes insipidus were examined and determined; then, using Spss, FCMapper, and Pajek software, fuzzy cognitive maps were analyzed in order to investigate factors and relationships between them.Findings: The results of the analysis of fuzzy cognitive maps in central diabetes insipidus, the factors that improve urine concentration after taking vasopressin and urine volume > 40 ml/kg and osmolarity of 300 mosom/l, and in renal diabetes insipidus, the factors of kidney failure Synthetic vasopressin use (no change in urine concentration) and hyperuria were identified as the most influential and important variables that should be given special attention.Originality/Value: So far, no definitive treatment has been discovered for this disease, and if a person is infected with it, it will affect him for the rest of his life. …”
