- Abstract
Hepatitis is a therapeutic disorder caused by the inflammation/infection of liver and regarded as the existence of cells causing inflammation in the tissues of body parts. Hepatitis is deliberated as a lethal disease worldwide, especially in developing countries mainly due to contaminated drinking water, unhygienic sanitary conditions and careless blood transfusion. This infection is basically considered as viral infection even though this sort of liver infection can also take place due to autoimmune, toxin, medications, unprotected physical relations, drugs and alcohol. Many approaches of identifying viral hepatitis have been sought so for, which include physical inspection, liver function tests (LFTs), liver surgery (biopsy), imaging studies such as sonogram or CT scan, ultrasound, blood tests, viral serology panel, DNA test, and viral antibody testing. In this article, we propose mathematical analysis of viral hepatitis types using Pythagorean fuzzy soft sets (PFSSs) via TOPSIS (Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution), VIKOR (Vise Kriterijumska Optimizacija Kompromisno Resenje) and generalized aggregation operators models and show that all the three techniques render the same optimal choice. We also present a commentary yielding comparison between the three techniques considering their structure of evaluation.
