Normed Ordered and 𝐸-Metric Spaces

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2012
In 2007, Haung and Zhang introduced the notion of cone metric spaces. In this paper, we define an ordered space 𝐸, and we discuss some properties and examples. Also, normed ordered space is introduced.

Immunosuppressive Drug Use in Limited Systemic Sclerosis: An International Survey

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Current guidelines recommend immunosuppressive treatment for diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis but are less clear on their use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) in the absence of internal organ complications. We conducted an international survey to understand current immunosuppressive drug prescribing patterns in lcSSc ...

Common fixed point theorems for sequences of fuzzy mappings

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1994
In this paper, we define g-contractive and g-contractive type fuzzy mappings and prove common fixed point theorems for sequences of fuzzy mappings on a complete metric linear space.

Anorectal Dysfunction in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Phenotypes and Functional Patterns

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this study was to characterize specific physiologic defects in anorectal dysfunction in systemic sclerosis (SSc) using anorectal manometry (ARM), evaluate associations with gastrointestinal (GI) and extraintestinal clinical phenotypes, and explore potential serologic markers for risk stratification.

Contractive definitions and discontinuity at fixed point [PDF]

, 2017
In this paper, we investigate some contractive definitions which are strong enough to generate a fixed point that do not force the mapping to be continuous at the fixed point. Finally, we obtain a fixed point theorem for generalized nonexpansive mappings

Association of Elevated Platelets and C‐Reactive Protein With Severe Disease and Poor Survival in Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Elevated C‐reactive protein (CRP) levels in systemic sclerosis (SSc) have been linked with severe disease and worse survival, but the role of platelet levels remains unclear. This study examined whether elevated platelet levels, CRP levels, or both are associated with disease severity, progression, and survival in SSc.

On Best Proximity Results for a Generalized Modified Ishikawa’s Iterative Scheme Driven by Perturbed 2-Cyclic Like-Contractive Self-Maps in Uniformly Convex Banach Spaces

Journal of Mathematics, 2019
This paper proposes a generalized modified iterative scheme where the composed self-mapping driving can have distinct step-dependent composition order in both the auxiliary iterative equation and the main one integrated in Ishikawa’s scheme.

Clinical Validation of Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐based Cartilage Segmentation Predicting Knee Replacement

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective For cartilage morphology to serve as a scalable endpoint in clinical trials, analyses should be performed automatically without human interaction. To clinically validate artificial intelligence (AI)‐based analysis, we studied cartilage loss from MRI prior to knee replacement.

On a generalized Krasnoselskii fixed point theorem

Open Mathematics
This study concerns a Krasnoselskii-type fixed point theorem for the sum of two operators A,BA,B in a Banach space EE, where BB is a Reich-type contractive mapping and AA is a k-set contractive mapping.

Fixed Point Results of Locally Contractive Mappings in Ordered Quasi-Partial Metric Spaces

The Scientific World Journal, 2013
Fixed point results for a self-map satisfying locally contractive conditions on a closed ball in an ordered 0-complete quasi-partial metric space have been established. Instead of monotone mapping, the notion of dominated mappings is applied.
