Introduction: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a condition in which triglycerides accumulate in liver cells without a history of alcohol consumption. Evidence has shown that auxiliary treatments, including the use of antioxidant compounds, can be effective in improving nonalcoholic fatty liver. Resveratrol is an antioxidant compound that has been shown to be beneficial in some diseases. This study aimed to investigate the results of research on the relationship between supplementation of resveratrol and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Methods: Randomized Clinical Trial effect of resveratrol supplementation on NAFLD was reviewed from Science direct, Pub med, Google scholar, Scopus, Web of Science between 2008 and 2012 with the keywords: Resveratrol, Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis, NAFLD. Results: A review of various studies showed resveratrol has positive effects on improving the symptoms of non-alcoholic fatty liver through various mechanisms such as lowering total plasma cholesterol and triglycerides, reducing oxidative stress in liver cell culture medium, decreasing liver triglyceride content and finally reducing the degree of steatosis. However, some studies have different results and do not show a significant effect on resveratrol supplementation. Conclusion: In most studies, the positive effects of resveratrol supplementation on non-alcoholic fatty liver have been proven, but more studies are needed because of the controversy of studies.

Introduction: Physical fitness is one of the determining factors in the efficiency and effectiveness of military forces. One of the most important factors in promoting fitness and improving muscle performance, Rapid detection of a defect in movement and stability is by Functional Movement Screen. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between functional movement Screen and physical fitness level among the officers of the university. Methods: In this descriptive-correlational study, out of all students studying in one of the country’, s military universities in 2019, 260 were selected as the final sample. The data were then collected using a 7-step Functional Movement Screen as well as physical fitness tests including a Sit-ups, a swim and a 3200 meters run. Then, the data were entered into the SPSS statistical software (v. 24) and analyzed using Pearson correlation and univariate regression tests. Results: The results showed that there is a significant relationship between physical fitness and Functional Movement Screen. There was also a significant relationship between physical fitness and the Deep Scott test, launch, active foot lift, rotational stability. However, there was no significant relationship between physical fitness and the test of stepping on the obstacle and raising the foot activator. Conclusion: The findings of the present study show that the planned programs were suitable for improving the level of physical fitness. Therefore, it seems that the study of effective factors in the promotion of motor screening test and their placement in the training program to improve the level of physical fitness, holding the Functional Movement Screen at the beginning of students to identify weaknesses and planning to strengthen them is useful and effective.

Introduction: Physical activity of any intensity and time effect on the oxidative stress and Antioxidant system. So, the proper choice of type, time and intensity of exercise is necessary. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of 8 weeks of strenuous endurance (SET) and high intensity interval training (HIIT) on the TRX1 and MDA of lung tissue in male wistar rats. Methods: 24 male Wistar rats, were randomly divided into three groups: (Control, SET, HIIT). The training protocols were consisted SET and HIIT on a treadmill for 8 weeks (5 days a week). Forty-eight hours after the last session of training lung tissue samples were collected. Lung concentration of TRX1 was measured by ELISA and MDA concentration was measured by tribarbituric acid. To analyze the data, one-way ANOVA and Tukey’, s post hoc test were used. Results: The results of this study showed that after 8 weeks, there were no significant differences in TRX1 level of lung tissue in SET and HIIT groups compared to control group (p = 0/43). Also, there were no significant differences in MDA level of lung tissue in HIIT groups compared to control group (P = 0/06), but the level of MDA was significantly decreased in SET group compared to endurance group (P= 0/02). Conclusion: According to the results of this study, it can be concluded that 8-week SET, while reducing MDA, did not on TRX1 level of lung tissue.

Introduction: One of the most important and main concepts in the religion of Islam is Islamic spirituality. Islamic spirituality is in fact the essence and foundation of Islamic civilization. Islamic spirituality considers man worthy and deserving of approaching God and introduces him as having the talent of the divine caliphate and the manifestation of divine names and attributes. The purpose of this study is to identify the characteristics and dimensions of Islamic spirituality for students of medical universities. Methods: The present study is a qualitative study. Semi-structured interview tools were used to collect data. 19 participants in the field of Islamic ethics and spirituality in Tehran University of Medical Sciences participated in the study and were selected by snowball sampling method and interviews were conducted until data saturation. Data analysis was performed by Strauss-Corbin method. Results: From the analysis of the content of the interviews, 3 main themes of insight, attitude and behavior as dimensions and 21 subthemes as indicators of Islamic spirituality were obtained. Conclusion: According to the findings of the present study, educational officials and curriculum planners are recommended to use the benefits of this study in the development of curricula or workshops for students of medical universities.

Introduction: Gastric cancer is one of the most common gastrointestinal tract neoplasms. Because of its invasion, and nonspecific symptoms and signs, the disease is often diagnosed at an advanced stage with short survival. PRR11 participates in the initiation and progression of lung cancer and breast cancer by regulating important genes involved in cell cycles and tumorigenesis. In this research, we studied the expression of this gene in samples of gastric adenocarcinoma. Methods: In this case-control study, 100 samples including 50 samples of gastric tumor tissue and 50 samples of normal tissue from the patients were prepared. Next, RNA was extracted from tissue and cDNA was made. Finally, using quantitative real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), gene expression measurements were performed for PRR11 and GAPDH. Paired t test was used for data analysis. We also performed a data mining study to determine PRR11 expression in gastric cancer patients. Results: The rate of PRR11 gene expression in tumor samples were significantly increased as compared to normal tumor margins (p<0. 001) and 11-fold change up-regulation has been calculated for this gene. Furthermore, the expression level of PRR11 has a positive correlation with gastric tumor size (p<0. 001). Conclusions: Overall, the results of this study showed that the PRR11 acts as an oncogene in gastric cancer and PRR11 targeting could be used as a strategy to counteract the progression of gastric cancer.

Introduction: Coagulopathy is a relatively common problem in patients with severe Covid-19. In this study, a hospitalized patient with Covid-19 who developed an abdominal hematoma is introduced. Case Report: The patient was a 46-year-old woman who was hospitalized due to Covid-19. On the fifth day of admission, she developed abdominal pain without gastrointestinal symptoms. Abdominal and pelvic ultrasonography showed a mass with an approximate volume of 480 cc on the right and bottom of the midline of the abdomen. The patient underwent laparotomy with suspected ovarian torsion, which was diagnosed abdominal hematoma during surgery. She was discharged with a good condition after successfully removing hematoma and post operation care. Discussion & Conclusion: Considering the frequency of coagulation disorders in Covid-19 patients and the simultaneous administration of anticoagulants in hospitalized patients, bleeding and hematoma should be considered in the treatment process.

Introduction: The main purpose of this research was to compare the effectiveness of ‘, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy based on self-compassion’,VS ‘, Schema Therapy’,on psychological well-being in women suffering chronic fatigue syndrome and intimate partner violence. Method: The basis of this study was semi-experimental research, using a pretest / posttest design with a control group. The sample consisted of 60 women suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome who also experienced violence from their husbands. This group was selected using a purposive sampling technique. The research tools included the Psychological Welfare Questionnaire, the Iranian version of Conflict Resolution Tactics from with revised scales, and the Chronic Fatigue Questionnaire. The ‘, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy based on self-compassion’,and ‘, Schema Therapy’,were implemented for the two experimental groups and no intervention was performed for the control group. Results: The results of multivariate analysis of covariance showed that both ‘, ACT therapy’,and ‘, Schema Therapy’,led to a significant increase in well-being scores (0/35) and four components of independence (0/57), environmental mastery (0/24), positive relationship with others (0/28) and being purposeful in life (0/21). The results also showed that both ‘, Schema Therapy’,and ACT therapy’,had similar effectiveness in well-being and environmental mastery,While ‘, ACT therapy’,proved to be more effective in other variables, namely independence, positive relationship with others, and being purposeful in life (p>0/05). Conclusion: We can use both ‘, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy based on self-compassion’,and ‘, Schema Therapy’,to improve psychological components in people who are suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome and people who has experienced partner violence.

Introduction: Burns is one of the most common problems in countries. Burn wounds are very different from other wounds. There are often obstacles to successful healing, so the wound healing process often does not result in uniform skin. The use of medicinal plants to treat burn wounds has a long history. In this study, the effects of Sambucus ebulus comparison with silver sulfadiazine on burn wound healing were investigated. Materials and Methods: In this study, adult male Wistar rats weighing about 300 g were used. The rat was randomly divided into 3 groups. Wounds were caused on the back of the animals. The treatment group was treated with 10% ointment of Sambucus ebulus and the other treatment group was treated with silver sulfadiazine,They were treated for 21 days. Finally, wound healing on days 7, 14, and 21 was studied and the information obtained was statistically analyzed using GraphPad Prism software. Results: Examination of wounds on days 7, 14, and 21 showed that 10% ointment of Sambucus ebulus could significantly improve wound healing parameters including wound size, epithelial thickness compared to the control group and silver sulfadiazine. Discussion & Conclusion: The results of this study showed that Sambucus ebulus have significant effects on the healing of burn wounds and can be considered as a factor in future supplementary studies in the field of burn wound treatment.
