Diabetes mellitus is a disease that plagues all countries in the world. One of the affectations caused by this chronic disease is damage to peripheral nervous tissues. This is the cause of ulcers and amputations in parts of the foot of the diabetic patient. In this paper, we propose a method to evaluate the patient’s degree of preventive management of peripheral diabetic neuropathy. For this purpose, the Neutrosophic Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is used to assess the importance of factors influencing the prevention of peripheral neuropathic complications associated with diabetes mellitus in some patients. For the final evaluation, the aggregator called neutrosophic uninorm is used; especially, the operator based on the combining function utilized in the Prospector expert system.

Flash floods are a sudden natural hazard caused by successive heavy rains in a short period of time. The world suffers from heavy and frequent rains due to climate change. So, the risk assessment of flash floods is considered increasingly important and urgent. Egypt is considered one of the countries exposed to sudden floods resulting from heavy rains, especially in Upper Egypt. Multi-criteria techniques are widely used to study and analyze the causes and effects of natural hazards. In contrast to the traditional multi-criteria techniques used in the process of estimating flood problems, we applied neutrosophic logic in this study that has a great ability for simulating and reflecting uncertain human’s thoughts in real world problems. Our study area sits in Southeast Sohag, and it is one of the most flash floods prone regions of Egypt's Eastern Desert. This area of Sohag has suffered from frequent flash floods, with some flood events resulting in human casualties in the last decades. This study focuses on using a neutrosophic stepwise weight assessment ration analysis (N-SWARA) technique with remotely sensed data and geographical information system (GIS) for producing a flash floods hazard map. The N-SWARA technique is applied to determine the weights of various factors that related to flash flooding, including elevation, slope, topographic wetness index, distance from the stream, flow accumulation, aspect, and flow direction. The obtained weight of selected criteria used then to produce the flood hazard map (FHM) using a raster calculator tool in geographic information system. The weight of each factor calculated by using the N-SWARA multi criteria analysis method and obtained the following results: 0.39 for slope, 0.21 for elevation, 0.12 for distance, 0.08 for flow direction, 0.05 for flow accumulation, 0.09 for TWI and 0.03 for aspect.

A relatively recent area of research known as neutrosophic statistics deals with data that are ambiguous, indeterminate, and inconsistent. By embracing the idea of neutrosophy, which denotes the existence of three components in a statement: truth, falsity, and indeterminacy, it broadens the application of classical statistics. One of the significant offshoots of statistics is life-time data analysis. Traditional statistical methods only account for variation within the data and calculate lifetime observations as accurate numbers. Actually, there are two different kinds of uncertainty in data: fluctuation between observations and fuzziness. As a result, analysis techniques that solely employ precise lifetime data and ignore fuzziness use incomplete information and produce false results. This paper sought to generalize hazard rates, survival functions, and parameter estimates for fuzzy Gompertz Distribution. Simulation studies are implemented to examine the performance of the fuzzy Gompertz Distribution. The results show that the fuzzy Gompertz Distribution has better flexibility in handling over the standard Gompertz Distribution.
