Abstract: 

The term "Ataxia" is used to denote disturbances of the body posture and its movement that are normally controlled by the cerebellum, frontal lobes and the posterior columns of the spinal cord. The initial symptom and the most prominent feature of ataxia is abnormal gait which is characterized by lurching and wide base walking Knowing that, the acute ataxia is among those problems that brings very soon the child to pediatrics neurology department and in view of lack of any survey in this field in our country, we decided to investigate the etiology of acute ataxia in Islamic Republic of Iran. Our patients were recruited from 100 children who were brought to neurology service of Mofid children hospital with the chief complaint of acute ataxia over 2 years. period. (sep 2001 to sep 2003). All of those 100 patients were admitted and required investigations were performed. Results of our workup revealed that the most common cause of acute ataxia is acute cerebellar one, which all of them preceded by viral febrile illness.The second frequent cause of acute ataxia is due to drug intoxication, which commonly was observed between 2-4 years period.  The remaining etiologies in descending frequency were as follow, Infectious polyneuropathy, Migraine, Opsoclonus, Myoclonus, Brain tumor, ADEM, MS and Epilepsy.

Abstract: 

Handedness and self-care skills are important in occupational therapy. This research was done in schools of the eleventh zone of Tehran in 1381. This study took place in 61 normal students (32 right-handed, 29 left- handed) and 59 mental retarded student (40 right-handed, 19 left-handed) in preschool, first and second grade. Average age for normal students was less than mental retarded students (P=0.000). Some data were taken from students through questionnaire and applying special tests for students got special data. Handedness and self-care skills were statistically compared between the two groups and relationship between them was calculated. There was a significant difference between the mean grip strength of right and left hand in right-handed normal students (P=0.011) but not in left- handed students (P=0.234). There was significant relationship between self- care skills and grip strength in normal retarded students (P=0.000). The difference of correlative comparison between manual skills and self-care skills was more than significant in mental retarded students than normal students (P<0.05). In this study correlation between handedness and foot preference was more than the correlation between handed and eye preference. There are significant relationships in comparing right-handed and left-handed in normal students based on birth rank (P=0.001) but there aren’t significant difference based on history of left-handed in family (P=0.963). It is recommended to evaluate and determine the handedness by means of many aspects like strength and handwriting alone is not enough.

Abstract: 

The need for immigration usually depends on complicated relations between economical, social, familial and political factors. Unavailability to education, occupation, services and respecting to primary human rights are the most important factors in immigration. Methods: This study designed and performed for detection of frequency of depression in afghanian refugees in Bardsir’s camp. In this survey 300 persons (162 female, 138 male) of that camp were selected. They filled out beck’s depression inventory and demographic questionnaire. The method of sampling was cluster sampling and the study was cross- sectional. Results: Total prevalence of depression in these refugees was 53%. The most severity of depression was in age group 20-29 years. Statistically there was no significant difference between depression and age. The relation between the prevalence of depression and sex was studied. (57%) in female, (47%) in male. Statistically there was a significant between the prevalence of depression and sex. (P<0.04) Depression rate among single people was more than married people, but the relation between the prevalence of depression and marital status was not significant. The most severity of depression in relation with refuges duration was found in the people with refugees period of 141-150 months. Generally the prevalence of depression among refugees except sex doesn’t relate with demographic factors and mainly the factors after migration affected the prevalence of depression.

Abstract: 

Background: As soon as the oral steriognosis has important role in speech development, in this research our purpose is study and comparison of oral steriognosis average in cleft palate and normal 5-9 year old children. Methods: This research was done in a cross-sectional and analytic method. The subject includes 66 normal and 30 cleft palate children 5-9 year. The variables include age, sex, cleft palate, different kinds of clefts and numbers of palate surgeries. Findings: 1-In two groups of children, the ability of oral steriognosis is difference. 2-There is a direct relationship between age and oral steriognosis. 3-There is no relationship between sex and oral steriognosis. 4-There is opposite relation between the number of palate surgeries and oral steriognosis. Discussion: Strengthen of oral steriognosis can speech disorders in cleft palate children.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of behavioral disorder among of primary school students in Abhar. 600 primary school students (300 boy and 300 girls) of public primary schools in Abhar, Iran were used as the sample for this study. Their behavioral disorder scores were obtained by means of Rutter’s teachers’ questionnaire. Using a cutpoint of 9, the prevalence rate of behavioral disorder 43.3% among subjects, with boys showing higher rates of behavioral disorder (44.7%) than girls (42%)but no significant differences were found by gender on rates of behavioral disorders.6.3 percent of the subjects had severe behavioral disorder. Academic achievement was negatively related to behavioral disorder. Significant differences were found by mothers’ education on children’s rates of behavioral disorder. Significant differences were found by fathers’ occupation on children’s rates of behavioral disorder.

Abstract: 

Introduction: Negative symptoms of schizophrenia are among the major barriers against rehabilitation of such patients and hinder their appropriate communication with others. Using of adjunctive drugs in addition to current treatments may reduce these symptoms. In this research we have discussed the efficacy of citalopram, clomipramine and alprazolam in reducing such symptoms. Method and Materials: Forty male, randomly chosen, schizophrenic patients who have been and are hospitalized for life long residential care in Razi psychiatric hospital, had been chosen for a Double Blind study (CCT) and divided into four groups and treated with 20mg citalopram, 0.75mg alprazolam, 25mg clomipramine and placebo, respectively, in addition to current treatments (typical antipsychosis ).After two weeks there was doubling of foresaid doses, which continued for another two weeks, and then tapered and terminated. Existence and severity of negative symptoms had been measured with the scale of SANS in the beginning and before applying of adjunctive drugs, and then at the end of second week of therapy, and finally at the end of fourth week. During these research no side effect had led to distress for patients. Data has been surveyed according to Z and chisquare (x2-test) formula for comparing of variables. Results: Citalopram, alprazolam, and clomipramine have decreased the severity of negative symptoms, respectively, in 80%, 50% of patients. In the majority of these decrease has been restricted to 20% from baseline. Only clomipramine could decrease up to 40%in two cases. Mean while, clomipramine but, generally these drugs were more efficacious on mild to moderate symptoms (grade 1, 2, and 3). Decreasing of symptoms was independent of each other and with variable patterns. There was no statistically important difference between aged and non aged patients. No patient in control group had any benefit from placebo. Conclusion: Treatment with citalopram, alprazolam and clomipramine can result in benefit and decrease of negative symptoms in schizophrenic patients. In this regard, overally, the lower side effects and pharmacokinetic interactions of citalopram in comparing with clomipramine and alprazolam deserve attention.
