This empirical research is conducted to determine the effects of self-care training on the reduction of Insulin injection side-effects in diabetics. 30 diabetic patients referring to the Diabetes clinics in Kashan and Aran-o-Bidgol were randomly selected as study subjects. Demographic information were collected through a questionnaire, self-care data through a test, and finally information about the side-effects of insulin injection and tests blood sugar were collected using a checklist. McNimar paired T-test was adopted in the statistical analysis of the data. The results indicated significant differences between topical symptoms, atrophy, hyperglycemia symptoms and fast blood sugar before the training and two months after the course.

Due to the variation in the prevalence of intestinal parasites in various groups in Iran, the present study was conducted to determine the prevalence of intestinal parasites among construction workers and green land servicemen in Kashan. The present study is a descriptive retrospective analysis of 570 subjects in two urban areas of Kashan, Aran and Bidgoll. The demographic condition was recorded; three fecal samples were collected from each individual and analyzed by microscopic direct examination and formalin - ether method. The prevalence of intestinal parasites in the population was 49.2%. The prevalence of the intestinal parasite in construction workers and green land servicemen was 9.6% and 11.7%, respectively. This was 38% and 41.5% in Aran and Bidgoll, respectively. The prevalence of intestinal parasite was high in the population studied. Therefore, it is recommended that involving factors should be identified and subsequent preventive measures need to be taken into consideration.    

This cross-sectional, descriptive study was performed to evaluate the approaches of handling the scorpion bitten cases at Abu -Zaid - Abad (an area related to Aran and Bidgol) in 1998, since it is considered aural as well as urban problem in the region. Questionnaires and interviews were used to collect information from 420 residents of 7-80 years old at the area .To assess the general knowledge, variables of the scorpions' living area, place, color , the body part exposed to bite, bite time, considering the bitten emergent cases, the way to deal with the bitten and preventive measures were covered by the research. There were 9 questions of 1 to 3 points to assess the knowledge rate. The 420 studied cases covered; 38.5% females, 61.5% males, 19% illiterate and 81% literate people. 25.5% showed no knowledge. In general, the knowledge rate among the female and the illiterate was lower than that of the male and the literate. According to 70.4% beliefs, foot was more exposed to bite than other body parts. 39% believed the wall cracks were the place for scorpions to live in. While 46.2% suggested the area reconstruction as a preventive measure against scorpion presence. Considering the lack of knowledge and different approaches to deal with bites, a primitive method of training for the residents is recommended to prevent any physical as well as economic losses through the related authorities.

Pityriasis versicolor is a normal flora fungus superficial infection affecting the skin, created under special Pityriasis conditions resulted from the fungous named lipofilic Malassezia fur fur or some versicolor which drains wastes in areas of neck, breast, back, arm and the other parts of body in the form of some crust, smooth macula which are irregular and crusted spots in various sizes. This study was done to findout the relationship Pityriasis versicolor, Cholestrol of and Triglyceride in referrals to Kashan and Aran, Bidgol pools in 2000.A descriptive-analytical study was performed on individual's referred to Kashan, Aran and Bidgol pools. Individuals information including age, job, level of education, the place of illness, residential location, amount of blood cholestrol and triglyceride and much use of antibiotics and chronic infections were investigated. About 60 patients were considered as the case group and 78 men of refering ones who were demographically similar to the case group and different only invivo of suffering from pityriasis versicolor were considered as the witness group. Blood cholestrol and triglyceride were determined RA-1000 autoanalyzer using technicon biochemical kits. In order to compare the findings, the statistical test (T Student) was used.Out of 1565 individuals under study, 3.8% were sufferring from prevalence pityriasis versicolor. It was proved that the of this disease was 4.4% in Kashan pool, 3.1% in Aran and Bidgol pool. The maximum contamination was observed among 10-20 years old and minimum was seen among employees and highly educated people. The research showed that there was no significant relationship between pityriasis versicolor and serum level of cholestrol but it showed significance relationship with serum level of triglyceride.Due to the hygenic poverty, chronic infection, out of cell glycogen, high serum level of triglyceride and cholestrol are effective causes for making pityriasis versicolor it is suggested for those who have a higher level of triglyceride and cholestrol than normal to be immuned against pityriasis versicolor. Some preventive measures have be taken in hygienic planning and the ways of using the swimming pools.

Although changes are Known as the main inevitable matter in all academic systems, but more important than that is researching to see if the changes have a positive erect or not And so, thws research aims to have a comparative study on the problems of educational and adjustive guidance of high school students in the year - unit system comparing to the semester - unit system in towns Kashan, Aran and Bidgol. The applied researching method in this research is the uualitative and questionnaire consisting of ten closed questions; and in the qualitative section a semi - strilctured interview were used in order to gather the necessary data. The statistical population for the research consists of all superintendent and consultants who have worked in both the year - unit and semester - unit systems. Because of the limited number of the population, all consultants and ten of the superintendent in the motioned towns were involved in the research. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data of the questionnaire and the analysis of the interview was done using the categorization method. Findings of the questionnaire show that the average problems of the consultants working in the year - unit systern are significantly less than their counterparts working in the semester unit system. Findings of the interview also confirm most of the findings of the questionnaire.

The intracotinental Qom- Aran depression basin is located in the central Iran zone and correlated with its tectonic environment. Some of the depression basins such as Qom- Aran, Aredstan- Yazd and Rafsanjan- Zarand basins show NW-SE trend and are located between two subordinate uplifted subzones of the central Iran zone (mid triangle subzone in the north and Urumiyeh-Dokhtar volcanic belt in the south). From Urumiyeh- Dokhtar magmatic subzone toward middle parts of central Iran zone, There are various subordinate trends and morphostructures, Probably due to the affected stress and the reflection of brittle behaviour of the central Iranian crystalline basement, that have produced faulted and rotated blocks with different forms and dimensions as well as the compexity of the morphostructures. Therefore, In the Qom-Aran depression basin, there are three structural trends, NW-SE, SW (Davazdah Emam-Narreh khar kuh fault) NNW- SSE (Qom-Raband Zefreh - fault) and NE-SW (Maranjab fault) .During the Neogene, spreading of the Red Sea and movement of Arabian Plate to the north produced compressional stress in the Iranian platform. Strike- slip movenents of Central Iranian blocks caused some local extensional movements, such as a long the bended part of Qom- Zefreh fault, and as a result the Qom- Aran pull - a part basin was formed. In the later phases a huge amount of continental facies sediments of the Upper Red Formation and related M1, M2 and M3 members deposited in this basin. The above mentioned deposits are originated by erosion of surrounding uplifted areas. The latter form reliefs which bounded mainly with reverse fault are located in the margin of the Qom-Aran depression basin. In the late Neogene the continuation of the Red Sea spreading and related compressional stress to the north, caused an anticlock rotational movement of the Qom-Aran block. According to this structural evolution some NE-SW trends (Maranjab Fault) are activated so that, the trend of Maranjab Fault shows 75 degree divergence to the Qom-Ravand - Zefreh faults ternd. All structural evidences indicate an extentional movement along the bended parts of the Qom-Ravand - Zefreh strike - slip fault and consequently the formation of the Qom-Aran pull- apart basin. On the other hand, the folding of Upper Red Formation deposits with axial NW-SE (Alborz and Sarajeh anticline) and E-W trends (Qaleh Sadar Anticline) in the border of Qom- Aran depression indicate the limitation of basin dimension due to the oblique convcergence of southern sub- block in eastern part of the depression which has proouced a narrow folded area in the Qaleh Sardar area. The above mentioned rotational movements are in agreement with geophysical and microseismic data, and resulted the structural subdivisions of the area into active (Maranjab) - Passive (Yakhab), captured (Daryacheh-ye -Namak) and isolated (daryacheh-ye - Hozsoltan) blocks.
