Abstract
The existing t-test of a correlation coefficient works under a determinate environment. In uncertainty, the existing t-test of a correlation coefficient is unable to investigate the significance of correlation. The study presents a modification of the existing t-test of a correlation coefficient using neutrosophic statistics. The test statistic is designed to investigate the significance of correlation when imprecise observations or uncertainties in the level of significance are presented. The test is applied to data obtained from patients with diabetes. From the data analysis, the proposed t-test of a correlation coefficient is found to be more effective than existing tests.

Abstract
Abstract
The primary purpose of the present study is to summarize and explain the results of a questionnaire about diabetes mellitus type 2 (DMT2) endangered individuals. The 275 participants (age between 21 and 76 years) answered 18 questions related to the possible danger of DMT2 disorder. Multivariate statistical methods – cluster analysis, factor and principal components analysis applied for the survey analysis. The final goal was to detect similarity patterns between the variables of interest (questions), to reveal hidden factors regulating the data structure and susceptibility to DMT2 among the participants or between them, to elucidate the health status of the different groups and the similarities within the groups. It was found that five hidden factors regulate the data structure, which are conditionally named “declined general health status”; “metabolic syndrome factor”; “smoking, alcohol abuse and stress factor”; “heredity and sex impact”; “healthy food” impact. The participants could be divided into four similarity patterns, each with probably different susceptibility to DMT2. Thus, the results of the questionnaire could be of use for prophylactic purposes.

Abstract
Background and objective: Arrhythmia is a widely seen cardiologic ailment worldwide, and is diagnosed using electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. The ECG signals can be translated manually by human experts, but can also be scheduled to be carried out automatically by some agents. To easily diagnose arrhythmia, an intelligent assistant can be used. Machine learning-based automatic arrhythmia detection models have been proposed to create an intelligent assistant. Materials and Methods: In this work, we have used an ECG dataset. This dataset contains 1000 ECG signals with 17 categories. A new hand-modeled learning network is developed on this dataset, and this model uses a 3D shape (prismatoid) to create textural features. Moreover, a tunable Q wavelet transform with low oscillatory parameters and a statistical feature extractor has been applied to extract features at both low and high levels. The suggested prismatoid pattern and statistical feature extractor create features from 53 sub-bands. A neighborhood component analysis has been used to choose the most discriminative features. Two classifiers, k nearest neighbor (kNN) and support vector machine (SVM), were used to classify the selected top features with 10-fold cross-validation. Results: The calculated best accuracy rate of the proposed model is equal to 97.30% using the SVM classifier. Conclusion: The computed results clearly indicate the success of the proposed prismatoid pattern-based model.

Abstract
Catecholamines are physiological regulators of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism during stress, but their chronic influence on metabolic changes in obese patients is still not clarified. The present study aimed to establish the associations between the catecholamine metabolites and metabolic syndrome (MS) components in obese women as well as to reveal the possible hidden subgroups of patients through hierarchical cluster analysis and principal component analysis. The 24-h urine excretion of metanephrine and normetanephrine was investigated in 150 obese women (54 non diabetic without MS, 70 non-diabetic with MS and 26 with type 2 diabetes). The interrelations between carbohydrate disturbances, metabolic syndrome components and stress response hormones were studied. Exploratory data analysis was used to determine different patterns of similarities among the patients. Normetanephrine concentrations were significantly increased in postmenopausal patients and in women with morbid obesity, type 2 diabetes, and hypertension but not with prediabetes. Both metanephrine and normetanephrine levels were positively associated with glucose concentrations one hour after glucose load irrespectively of the insulin levels. The exploratory data analysis showed different risk subgroups among the investigated obese women. The development of predictive tools that include not only traditional metabolic risk factors, but also markers of stress response systems might help for specific risk estimation in obesity patients.
