Mammography is a valuable method for early detection of breast cancer. Mammographic sensitivity depends on some factors such as age, breast tissue density, menopausal status, systemic disease, familial history of breast cancer and others. This study was designed to compare the effects of two regimens of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on mammographic density. Materials & Methods: 110 postmenopausal women under hormone replacement therapy who had been referred to the service of mammography were selected. On the basis of type of HRT, women were divided into two groups: 1) Continuous conjugated estrogen plus daily medroxy progesterone acetate (80 cases) and 2) daily conjugated estrogen plus sequentially medroxy progesterone acetate 2 weeks per month (30 cases). All of the women had a baseline mammogram before the onset of HRT which was comparing with control mammograms during treatment. Results: Control mammograms reveals increased breast density in 45% of the first group members and in 13.3% of the other group, which was statistically significant (p < 0.05) Conclusion: Hormone replacement therapy can increase mammographic density which is more prominent with continuous and daily estrogen and progesterone regimens.

Materials & Methods: This is an analytic, descriptive (cross sectional) study that has been done on 236 female students of Secondary schools who had menstruated for the first time in the last two months before the performance of the study. The sampling was done randomly based on purpose of the study and the required information was gathered through some inquiries including demographic data from subjects and their parents and some characteristics of their first menstruation. The evaluation of weight, height and BMI also was done. The subjects were grouped in to three socioeconomic status and were evaluated. Results: Findings indicates that age at menarche was 13.1±1.81 (years), the average height at that time was 153±5.66 (cm), the average weight was 44.62±8.06 (kg) and the BMI was 18.87±3.17 (kg/m2). In this study there was no meaningful relation between weight and BMI with the age at menarche but the relation between height and menarche was meaningful. This study also showed there was not significant difference between three socio-economic status and age at menarche, weight, height, BMI and some menstrual characteristics. Conclusion: The menstrual age could be a good indicator of socio-economic development but as the social status differences decrease, the differences observed in monarchal age and body composition disappears. According to the results the physical characteristics are not good indicator for prediction of menarche.

Regarding to low efficacy of chemical drugs for relief of addiction, and with respect to recommendation of medicinal plant in new therapeutic medicine we use a most candidate herb Datura stramonum for this purpose. Materials & Methods: Animals were addicted with escalating morphine consumption in drinking water. Naloxone (2.5mg/kg, i.p) was injected for precipitating of pharmacological withdrawal syndromes. The signs were observed for 40 min after naloxone injection. Physiological withdrawal syndrome was followed 48 h after disruption of morphine consumption. In treatment groups the ED50 dose of each drug were applied to the animals during addiction period. Results: Our data show the dosage of 100 mg/kg of the extract close to effective dose (ED50). The grade physiological sign, ejaculation was significantly diminished by methadone and Datura seed consumption (p < 0.05). Also, teeth chattering sign was markedly reduced in methadone and Raha groups (p < 0.05). Also, the physiologic chocked sign diarrhea was markedly reduced by Datura seed and methadone. Pharmacological grade signs wet dog shakes and weight loss due to Datura seed and jumping sign by Datura seed, methadone and Raha were decreased more than control ones (Respectively p < 0.05 and 0.01). However, ejaculation sign by methadone and Datura seed and teeth chattering signs by methadone, Datura seed and Raha were significantly relieved.

The BMSCs can differentiate into mesodermal and non mesodermal cells. Because of availability of them, they are a suitable source of adult stem cells for cell therapy. Some inducers were used to differentiate stem cells into neural phenotype, such: retinoic acid, dimethyl sulfoxide, deprenil & et al are cytotoxic compound. Lithium is a mood stabilizer drug that has supportive effect on neuronal cells. Our goal in this study is use of lithium chloride as a safe inducer for induction of BMSCs into neuronal phenotype. Materials & Methods: The BMSCs were isolated from bone marrow of female rat’s femurs and tibias by aspiration and culturing. After 4 passages they were induced by lithium chloride (0.5mM) for 24 hours. Then they evaluated with microscopic and immunocytochemistry methods. In immunocytochemistry, anti-neurofilament 160, 68 and 200 KD and anti-synaptophysin antibody were used to characterize the neuronal phenotype. Results: The results indicated that lithium chloride (0.5mM) can induced the BMSCs into neuronal phenotype after 24 hours. The percentage of fibronectin immunoreactive cells before induction was 95% and the percentage of neural markers immunoreactive cells after induction were 89.6% for neurofilament (NF) 68, 92% for NF-160, 93.2% for NF-200 and 70.2% for synaptophysin.

Although it induced ovulation in 80-90% of cases, pregnancy rate is 30-40% due to anti Estrogenic effect on endometrial and mucosal cervix. The goal of this research is to evaluate the inhibition of antiestrogenic effect of clomiphene citrate by using of ethinyl estradiol. Materials & Methods: A double blind clinical trial was performed in 62 infertile patients. They were 20-35 years old and 3 months before treatment they didn’t used any drugs for their infertility. They had BMI < 30 and in normal range of FSH, LH, TSH, PRL and testosterone on the third days of menstrual cycle. They were randomly divided into two groups A and B. Group A received 100 mg/day clomiphene citrate in the 5th day of menstrual cycle for 5 days and 0.05 mg/day ethinyl estradiol for 5 days from 8th day of menstrual cycle. Group B received only clomiphene citrate 100 mg/day in the 5th day of menstrual cycle for 5 days. Patients whom have follicles growth of greater than 18 mm have prescribed 10,000 HCG and 36 hours later IUI was performed for all patients. Results: Our results show that pregnancy rate in patients who received clomiphene citrate plus ethinyl estradiol was higher than patients who received only clomiphene citrate, 14.3% versus 9.7%, respectively. This difference is not significant. Mean size of dominant follicles in groups A was less than group B (p=0.0001) and cancellation rate was higher in group A (p=0.005). Endometrial thickness and appearance in two groups was similar. Conclusion: Although ethinyl estradiol could not either increased endometrial thickness or improved endometrial appearance. It could not also decrease follicular growth rate that to our best knowledge was not reported previously. But it could increase pregnancy rate from 9.7% to 14.3%. Although this differences is not significant (p=69%) it is important from clinical point. This difference may be due to differences in etiology of infertility between two groups or other causes.

The evaluating instrument of the level of information has been devised by researcher (researcher made questionnaire) wich the validity through the content validity and its reliability assessed by cronbach’s alpha ( a =0.68). The reliability and validity of SF36 had been previously confirmed. In the first stage (before intervention) the questionnaire was completed through an interview. After determining the educational needs and designing a self – care educational schedule based on Orem’ self – care model and consulting renal and nutrition specialists the training sessions were held teaching only one patient in each session. This training lasted for four weeks 3 to 4 half – hour and one hour sessions during the morning, after noon and night. Three months after the last day of the training, the questionnaire was used by the researcher and colleagues through interview. The results were analyzed using descriptive statistic, T-Test, ANOVA and Pearson correlation. Results: The average quality of life and the level of information gained about self care before and after training indicated a meaningful difference (p Background & Objective: Hemodialysis as one of the most common methods in controlling renal insufficient brings about a lot of changes in the patients ’ method & QOL. Patient ’ s training is one of the effective factors in improving the QOL. By increasing the patient ’ s awareness about self – care & family care the patients ’ QOL can be improved. This study investigates the effect of training on hemodialysis patients ’ QOL in 2007–2008 in Maragheh. Materials & Methods: This quasi-experimental research (pre - and post -) was carried on using randomization on 32 patients. The instrument of data collection was the questionnair including demographic data, the level of information about self care and SF36.
