Because an effective treatment has not been found so far, the present study was designed to investigate the effects of aqueous extracts of Biebersteinia multifida plant on inflammatory changes of the colon following acetic acid- induced ulcerative colitis in male rats. METHODS: In this experimental study, 32 male wistar rats weighing 200-250 g were used in vivo. Animals were randomly assigned into four groups (each group consisting of 8 rats): 1- Intact; 2- Acetic acid-induced ulcerative colitis; 3- Biebersteinia multifida aqueous extract (200 mg /Kg); 4- Sulfasalazine treatment group (500 Mg /kg). In each group, the amount of gastric acid and intestinal TNF-α and IL-10 cytokines were measured at 8 days after of ulcerative colitis induction. FINDINGS: The concentration of gastric acid in the induction group of colitis was 2/4533 ± 0.95 mEq / 15 min, which in the treatment group with Biebersteinia multifida extract decreased the level of gastric acid to 0.4400 ± 0.17 (p = 0.000). Also, TNF-α changes in the colitis and extract group were 279.68±42.71 and 160.35±28.79, respectively, which was significant (p=0.000). The concentration of IL-10 in the colitis group was 349.75±31.89, which increased to 353.75±66.46 after injection of the extract (p=0.015). CONCLUSION: The results showed that aqueous extract of Biebersteinia multifida in a dose of 200 mg / kg has an effect on colon inflammation and it can be improved.

Facilitated tucking is a simple technique that makes the baby control her body better. Therefore, this study was performed to compare the effects of fetal status with hands of nurses and simulated hand on the physiological indices of pain during venipuncture in preterm infants. METHODS: The present experimental study was performed on 99 preterm infants admitted to the intensive care unit of Amin and Shahid Beheshti hospitals of Isfahan and in three groups of 33 patients (two groups of test and one control group). In one of the test groups during venipuncture procedure neonates were placed in facilitated tucking by nurse’s hand and in the other group by simulated hands. Before, during and after the intravenous route, the respiratory rate, pulse rate and arterial oxygen saturation were recorded using monitors. FINDINGS: The mean of arterial oxygen saturation during and after venipuncture in the nurses' hand group were (93.04±6.13) and (94.3±56.44) and in simulated hand group were (95.2±21.11) and (94.2±50.86%) which had no significant difference (p<0.05). Between the mean respiratory rate, during and after the venipuncture in the nurses' hand (49.9±85.88) and (54.11±03.85) with simulated hand group (50.64±11.48) and (57.10±96.82) was not significantly different. CONCLUSION: The results of the study showed that the use of nursing hands and simulated hands to put a premature infant in a facilitated tucking is effective equally in controlling the physiological indices. 7569 Genetics, Cell and Molecular Biology Association the Study of Between Cpeb1 (Rs230846 C>T) Gene Polymorphism And Azoospermia/ Severe Oligospermia Ghorbian S j Kian Bostanabad R k j Department of Molecular Genetics, Ahar Branch, Islamic Azad University, Ahar, I.R.Iran k Department of Molecular Genetics, Ahar Branch, Islamic Azad University, Ahar, I.R.Iran 1 9 2018 20 9 20 27 04 02 2018 16 07 2018 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: : CPEB1 gene plays a significant role during gametogenesis.

Mental imagery training can be done without moving the affected limbs, and this method is safe, cheap and accessible. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of motor imagery training with sensory feedback on sensory-motor function of the upper extremity in patients with chronic stroke. METHODS: In this non-randomized clinical trial, 30 stroke patients with level of upper extremity function according to Brunnsrom’s recovery ≥ 2, and cognitive function level according to MMSE ≥ 21 were selected through non-probability sampling from rehabilitation centers and randomly divided into intervention and control groups. Patients in the control group received conventional rehabilitation programs, and patients in the intervention group received motor imagery training with sensory feedback in 12 sessions (45 – 60 minutes), in addition to conventional rehabilitation programs. Before and after the interventions, sensory and motor functions were assessed using Box-Block test, Purde-Pegbord test, range of motion, FMA-UE total and FMA-UE coordination/speed, 2-point-discrimination, Nottingham-Sensory Assessment, Modified-Ashworth Scale and Stroke Impact Scale. FINDINGS: Mean percentage of changes in motor function and speed/coordination of upper extremity, shoulder and elbow range of motion and gross dexterity was higher in the interventional group (50%, 50%, 80%, 50% and 80%, respectively) compared with the conventional rehabilitation group (20%, 18%, 50%, 30% and 30%, respectively) (p≤0.05). However, both interventions had similar effect on sensory function, fine dexterity, muscle tone and activities of daily living. CONCLUSION: The results of the study showed that motor imagery training with sensory feedback along with conventional rehabilitation could enhance the motor function, gross dexterity and range of motion of the upper extremity in chronic stroke patients.   7682 Histology The Effects of Vitamin E on Liver and Kidney Damage Induced by Dianabol in Small Laboratory Mice Morovvati H o Babaie M p TooTian Z Fazelipour S Anbara H Akbarzadeh A o Department of Basic Siences, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Tehran, Tehran, I.R.Iran p 1.

Foods that create an appropriate media for Streptococcus mutans and other cariogenic microflora, cause increase the rate of tooth caries. The aim of this study was the assessment of short-term consumption of probiotic cake (contain Bacillus coagulans) on salivary streptococcus mutans count and comparison with ordinary cake. METHODS: A cross over blind study was conducted on 30 healthy adult volunteers in two groups (16 males and 14 females). The first group ate probiotic cake (75 grams daily) for 1 week and after 2 weeks wash out period, they ate ordinary cake. The second group first ate ordinary cake and after 2 weeks wash out period, they ate probiotic cake (75 grams daily). Non-stimulating salivary samples, before (as baseline) and after eating probiotic and ordinary cake, were collected. Then counting of streptococcus mutans was done with colony counter. FINDINGS: Of the 30 patients, 16 (53.33%) were male and 14 (46.67%) were female with an average age of 40.86±17.15 years. Number of Streptococcus mutans in baseline saliva samples was (7.872±1.430)106 CFU/ml and in the saliva samples after consumption of probiotic cake was (4.652±0.841)106 CFU/ml and in saliva samples after consumption of ordinary cake was (21.386±3.895)106 CFU/ml. There was no significantly difference between mutants count before and after eating probiotic cake (p=0.769) but after consumption of ordinary cake than probiotic cake the count of streptococcus increased significantly (21.3±39.9 compared with 4.65±0.84) (p=0.032). CONCLUSION: Based on the results of this study, the addition of probiotic bacteria to sweet and high-consumption foods can reduce the adverse effects of foods such as cakes on oral health. 7580 Physical Education and Sports Science The Effect of Eight Weeks of Water Training on Sirt1, Pgc-1α and Body Fat Percentage in Obese Men Soltani M Rashid lamir A Fathei M Ghahremani Moghaddam M Department of Sport Physiology, Faculty of Sport Sciences, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad, I.R.Iran Department of Sport Physiology, Faculty of Sport Sciences, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad, I.R.Iran Department of Sport Physiology, Faculty of Sport Sciences, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad, I.R.Iran Department of Sport Physiology, Faculty of Sport Sciences, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad, I.R.Iran 1 9 2018 20 9 55 60 07 02 2018 18 07 2018 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: SIRT1 and PGC-1α are two factors that increase the body's antioxidant capacity, which can improve inflammation and free radicals in obesity. The present study was conducted to determine the effect of eight weeks of water training on SIRT1, PGC-1α and body fat percentage in obese men. METHODS: In this quasi-experimental study, obese men (BMI = 30, waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) > 0.5) were selected voluntarily and were randomly divided into two groups of water training (n = 11) and control (n = 11). The training program included three sessions per week for eight weeks with training intensity of 60 to 80% of maximal heart rate. BMI, body fat percentage and weight of subjects were examined before and after the intervention. Arterial blood samples were used to measure SIRT1 and PGC-1α during the pre-test and post-test stages.  FINDINGS: The assessments showed that PGC-1α levels increased from 7.7 to 8.7 and SIRT1 levels increased from 11.3 to 12.6, and this increase was significant in the training group compared to the control group (p < 0.001). The results showed that body fat percentage decreased from 30.2 to 27.83 and weight decreased from 94.7 to 92.2, which was significant compared to the control group (p<0.001). CONCLUSION: Based on the results of this study, water training can increase the levels of SIRT1 and PGC-1α and decrease weight and body fat percentage. 7602 Nursing An Investigation of the Relationship between Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver and Corticosteroid Use Hemmatipour A Hatami A Aminifar H Jahangirmehr A Naderzadeh I Baraz Sh Department of Nursing, Shoushtar Faculty of Medical Sciences, Shoushtar, I.R.Iran 2.Student Research Committee, Shoushtar Faculty of Medical Sciences, Shoushtar, I.R.Iran 2.Student Research Committee, Shoushtar Faculty of Medical Sciences, Shoushtar, I.R.Iran 3.Department of Health, Shoushtar Faculty of Medical Sciences, Shoushtar, I.R.Iran 2.Student Research Committee, Shoushtar Faculty of Medical Sciences, Shoushtar, I.R.Iran 4.Hyperlipidemia Research Center, Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences, Ahvaz, I.R.Iran 1 9 2018 20 9 61 65 14 02 2018 26 09 2018 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver is one of the major health problems in the society, which is mainly caused by obesity and the use of certain drugs. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between non-alcoholic fatty liver and corticosteroid use.  METHODS: This case-control study was performed on 76 patients with normal BMI in two groups of 38 (with or without non-alcoholic fatty liver). The groups were matched according to age and gender and were compared regarding at least 6 months of corticosteroid use and suffering from non-alcoholic fatty liver. FINDINGS: Of 76 patients who were included in the study, 51 (65.4%) were male. 26% (20 people) of the case group and only 3.9% (3 people) of the control group used corticosteroid. The results showed significant effect of corticosteroid on fatty liver disease (p<0.001). In addition, the two variables of gender and corticosteroid use could predict 32% of changes in fatty liver. In this study, odds ratio in men was almost 6 times higher than women (CI-95%: 2.04–17.54, OR=5.92) (p<0.001). The odds ratio of developing fatty liver disease in the corticosteroid group was almost 13% higher than those who did not use corticosteroid (CI-95%: 3.94 – 49.51, OR = 12.96).    CONCLUSION: The results of this study showed that the effect of corticosteroid use on the fatty liver, especially among men, is significant. 7291 Nursing The Effect of Aromatherapy with Peppermint Essential Oil on Nausea and Vomiting in the Acute Phase of Chemotherapy in Patients with Breast Cancer Eghbali Mohammad Varaei Shokoh Hosseini Mahdi Yekaninejad Mir Saeed Shahi Farhad 1.
