Bushehr Province with an area of about 25360 sq. is beside Persian Gulf. This Province was divided into two parts plain regions and mountains regions. Soil of plain regions is salt and sandy - laom and soil of mountains regions is sandy - soil often sandy –laom and alluvial.At first collection and identification of medicinal plants in Bushehr Province with seven town ships which divided to four regions; This project performed for four years (1995 - 1999).In this research 70 species of medicinal plants were collected and identified. They classified in 70 species, 32 species were herbaceous, 17 bush, 12 shrubs, 7 trees and tubers. Scientific name, altitude and distribution were mentioned in this paper.

The present study aims to analyze the morphology of some local stories of the city of Bushehr in Iran. These three stories, with some difference, correspond to the patterns of Vladimir Propp and are in harmony with the functions of his theory, though with slight differences. The present article mentions some of the elements that are not in Propp's model. The novelty of this article is the reviving of the patterns of the Boushehri an stories and pointing out the differences between Iranian stories and the constructivist principles of storytelling...

Background: In disasters, large number of causalities rash into the hospitals in order to get health facilities. So, hospitals are the reference point for delivering the health services in all levels for helping to the most percent of injured people. Aim of study was to assess hospital disaster preparedness of Bushehr Province.Material and Methods: This was a cross-sectional descriptive study which has been done in all Bushehr Province hospitals. In order to collect data, we used 210 questions checklist with 10 different aims; each aim had consisted of 6 different domains (equipment, working stuff, physical space, structure, protocols and functional chart). The checklists were completed by direct observation and evaluation of equipment, programs and documents based on their domains with different people.Results: The hospital preparedness in traffic base was very poor with mean number of 19.04±16.10 evaluation of security; education and management domain with mean number 35.29±26.52, 38.65±19.46, 36.36±24.05, respectively were poor. In logistics, workforce, communications, excused transportation and addition to the hospitals with the mean number of 53.26±26.31, 49.65±27.61, 45.53±18.29, 43.33±19.72, and 40.47±20.37 were estimated as average. The most number was belonged to the emergency with the mean number of 53.80±19.18.Conclusion: The Bushehr Province hospitals have not enough preparation against unexpected disasters and cannot be a good supporter for disaster happening, and in the occasions of happenings so many serious problems will occur. It will be suggested that the hospital managers should pay more attention to the unexpected disasters.

Today, ports, as a communication bridge for the exchange of goods, play an important role in sea and land transport in creating integration in the post-colonial regions and establishing balance in the supply chain. In fact, each port has a different geographical location, equipment and function, and this has led to increased inequality in the development of ports and, by nature, cities and regions. The purpose of this study is to evaluate, identify and analyze the geographical facilities and capabilities of the ports of Bushehr Province in order to develop the backward regions of this Province. The research method in this research is descriptive-analytical using documentary sources, library. In order to weight and rank the criteria and sub-criteria, fuzzy AHP and TOPSIS models have been used. After a general review and comparison of criteria and sub-criteria, six ports of Bushehr, Assaluyeh, Kangan, Genaveh, Dayyer and Deylam in this Province were selected from among the ports of Bushehr Province which are located in the Persian Gulf. Findings show that Assaluyeh port is among the five ports compared in terms of criteria and sub-criteria in the first place. Therefore, it was selected as the most suitable port in the development of the southern regions of Bushehr Province.

Objective: About 50% of severe to profound intellectual disabilities (ID) are caused by genetic factors. In this study we decided to investigate the genetic causes of ID in 69 Bushehrian families to provide information for genetic counseling, carrier detection, and prenatal diagnosis.Materials & Methods: In this study we excluded known chromosomal abnormalities. The majority of families had more than two affected individuals. Karyotyping for each proband with physical malformations was performed. One affected member from each family was tested for FMR1 mutation and metabolic screening. Families with ID and primary microcephaly were checked for 7 known MCPH genes by linkage analysis.Results: Chromosomal abnormality was not found in any of the families. One family had full mutation of CGG repeat of Fragile-X syndrome. Six out of 18 families with MCPH showed linkage to one of the MCPH loci. One family had a syndrome associated with microcephaly. Two families with microcephaly and one family with a non-syndromic form of mental retardation without microcephaly showed an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance.Conclusion: According to our results genetic causes of ID are very heterogeneous and autosomal recessive primary microcephaly has an extremely high prevalence (26.09%) in Bushehr Province of Iran.

The subject of this paper is the linguistic survey of loan-words in the dialects of Bushehr Province. The study in question was conducted in the three cities of Borazjan, Bushehr and Khormuj in 2003. The researcher, who conducted this study himself, gives a preliminary report of his findings in this article. The main feature is a list of some 154 words, arranged alphabetically from /fit/ طول واحد"" (= foot)2 to / voyer / "ویر" (= wire). It is concluded that there is ample evidence of morphological distortion and some evidence of semantic shift.

One cannot emphasize the importance of the city net in political and economical geography, and generally in civil dynamicity. Insofar as the city net is the outcome and the cause of many contemporary citizenship phenomena, both from the spatial point of view i.e. the location and the distribution of different cities (size, population etc.) and from the economic point of view i.e. the trade system of the cities on the basis of their basic functions, the familiarity with this net and its changes in an area can shed light on many key issues. Programming according to the civil and functional system and its hierarchy plays a significant role in providing services and exchanges both inter- and intra- zonal, decentralization, removing present inequalities, and the overall systematic development of the spatial structures of the zone. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate and analyze the city net in Bushehr Province, using models such as city concentration, rank-size, adjusted rank-size, Lorenz curve, Gini coefficient, Entropy coefficient and Elasticiablity coefficient. This research is a functional-developmental one and its methodology is descriptive, and analytical-causal. Excel and GIS softwares were used for qualitative and quantitative analyses. The findings show that the spatial distribution of the quantity of the cities in Bushehr Province has been half-balanced from 1956 to 2006. In 2006, it has reached the most balanced situation during the past six decades. Furthermore, the most balanced spatial distribution of the population in cities of Bushehr Province dates back to 1987, while the worst is in 1956. This process has decreased to about 0.2 in 2006 in comparison with 1996 which means the distribution of the facilities and equipments in this Province is not appropriate. To sum up, the overall spatial distribution of the population in the cities of Bushehr Province has been half-balanced.

The customs buildings complex at the Persian Gulf in Bushehr Province was built at the end of the Qajar era and the beginning of the Pahlavi era. These buildings are very similar. All these buildings are architecturally built in the same way. All these buildings have two floors and match each other. The architecture of these buildings is derived from the architectural style of the second half of the 18th century and 19th century of the West. This style entered Iran’s architecture as a symbol of modernity and strongly influenced Iranian architecture. It has to be mentioned that this influence was much greater in the last years of the Qajar era compared to its first years. By using the historical research method and library studies, it is tried to collect the necessary data about the research subject and obtain adequate understanding of the customs and telegraph offices in Bushehr Province

Cross over ordering of blood much in excess of actual or anticipated needs led to rising costs and transfusion associated morbidity. In order to reveal blood utilization, we evaluated blood ordering and transfusion practices in 437 cases in general surgery, obstetrics & gynecology, orthopedics, neurology and urology wards of different hospitals in Bushehr Province using cross-match to transfusion ratio (C/T ratio) and transfusion index (TI). The maximum (8.9) and minimum (1.2) ratios for C/T index were in obstetrics and gynecology and orthopedics wards, respectively. The maximum (1.85) and minimum (0.70) TI index were in orthopedics and obstetrics & gynecology wards, respectively. TI indices for general surgery and urology wards were 0.59 and 0.70, respectively. Therefore, blood ordering and transfusion practices in some wards of Bushehr hospitals, especially obstetrics and gynecology ward, should be reevaluated.
