Some novel alloys, including high-entropy alloys, have gained increasing attention due to their diverse properties and applications. This study aims to investigate the relationship between the magnetic properties and phase transformations of the FeCrCoNiMn high-entropy alloy with the addition of titanium.

The high entropy alloy powder was synthesized by mechanically alloying pure constituent elements in a planetary mill. The synthesized high entropy alloy powder was phase-analyzed using the X-ray diffraction method. Furthermore, phase structure formation was predicted by thermodynamic functions via JMatPro software. The magnetic behavior was analyzed using a vibrating sample magnetometer, and particle morphology was examined using field emission scanning electron microscopy.

The FeCrCoNiMn alloy milled includes a single-phase FCC structure after 40 hours. The presence of Ti in the composition of the alloy created BCC and Laves phase structures. Concurrently, the addition of titanium increased both the coercivity force and saturation magnetization. 

The increase in saturation magnetization is due to the formation of the BCC phase in the FeCrCoNiMnTi alloy, while the BCC phase has a strong exchange interaction between ferromagnetic elements. However, the presence of both the non-magnetic Laves intermetallic phase and interphase boundaries has increased the coercivity force.

The Rahmat cultivar (Soy 91-19a line) was developed to introduce an early-maturing soybean cultivar for Golestan province. This cultivar originated from the segregating generations of a crossbreeding program between the Charleston (maternal) and Mustang (paternal) cultivars, initiated in 2001. In preliminary yield trials, the Soy 91-19a line was identified as a top performer, producing 3496 kgha-1. In adaptability trials (2013-2014), using GGE biplot analysis and simultaneous selection for yield and stability, the Soy-91-19a line, with an average grain yield of 2739 kgha-1 and a growth period of 117 days, emerged as the best genotype in terms of yield, stability, and earliness, showing a yield increase of 389 kgha-1 compared to the Williams control cultivar. Under farmer conditions in Golestan, this line produced 3198 kgha-1, demonstrating a 21% yield increase over the Williams cultivar. This line is resistant to Phytophthora sudden death (Phytophthora soja) and semi-sensitive to charcoal rot. Additionally, the Soy 91-19a is indeterminate, multi-branched, early-maturing, drought-tolerant, and resistant to lodging and grain shattering. The oleic acid content of this line is 5% higher than that of common cultivars. Due to its high yield and desirable agronomic traits, this line has been introduced as the Rahmat cultivar for summer cultivation in Golestan province.

This study investigates the impact of the hydration process on the softening, desirability, and quality of Deiri dates under the influence of ultrasound waves. The experimental setup included two ultrasound application conditions (with ultrasound and without ultrasound), five water temperatures (30, 40, 50, 60, and 70 degrees Celsius), and five soaking durations (40, 55, 70, 85, and 100 minutes). The qualitative parameters examined were moisture content, color indices L, a, b, ∆E, total sugar, and reduced sugar. Textural characteristics such as firmness, chewability, gumminess, and springiness were also evaluated. The response surface methodology (RSM) with a central composite design (CCD) was employed for data analysis using the Design Expert 10 software.The results demonstrated that the proposed regression models were significant in determining the effects of hydration on moisture content, reduced sugar, total sugar, color indices L and ∆E, firmness, chewability, cohesiveness, and springiness of the treated samples. Specifically, the moisture content and reduced sugar of samples treated with ultrasonic hydration were 7.47% and 1.34 times higher, respectively, compared to those treated without ultrasound, indicating a pronounced effect of ultrasound. However, the color indices a and b were not significant at the 0.05 level. Optimization results indicated that the optimal conditions for the hydration process of Deiri date fruits involved a temperature of 40 degrees Celsius and a duration of 85 minutes with the application of ultrasound. While ultrasound had a significant effect on several traits, its economic justification must also be considered.

In daily life, stress in one of the important and potent modulators of behaviour. Inhibitory or faciliatory effects of acute and chronic stress exposure on memory performance (acquisition, consolidation and retrieval) have shown in previous researches. Under such circumstances, the levels of (nor) epinephrine (NE) rapidly increases in the memory related area including hippocampus and amygdala. Along with NE, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis activates. Glocorticoids (GCs) hormones are the main end-products of the HPA axis activation. In different animal models have been shown that NE and glocorticoids mediate the modulatory effect of stress on memory. Microglia that originally form in the yolk sac are immune cells in the central nervous system and act as the brain's first line of cellular defense against various pathogens. These cells release inflammatory mediators and neurotrophic factors and also phagocytes cellular debris. In addition, are also shown to play a role in the development of brain. During embryonic development, microglia remove apoptotic cells and regulate synaptic pruning. These cells play an essential role in regulating of synapse regeneration, neurogenesis, synaptic function, angiogenesis and myelination. They are dynamic cells in the adult brain and have the ability to rapidly change their morphology to properly respond to the functional needs of the brain. Microglia is activated in M1 and M2 phenotype. M1 microglia activation is induced by gamma interferon and LPS and promotes inflammation via release of inflammatory mediators such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (αTNF) and interleukins. M2 activation mainly is related to secretion of glucocorticoids, extracellular matrix proteins and anti-inflammatory cytokines. It has been reported that microglia as a key regulator of neuronal function have NE and GCs receptors, suggesting a critical role of these brain cells in modulating stress effects. Several lines of studies indicates that microglia regulate learning and memory via the formation and stability of synapses. Microglia actively contribute in synaptic pruning via classical complement cascade mechanism. Apoptotic, immature or poorly growing synapses are labeled with complement components, C1q and C3. Microglia recognize these complement components through the complement receptor CR3 and eliminate C1q and C3-labeled synapses. Microglia also detect and remove inactive synapses by the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) consequently regulate brain connectivity and activity. Moreover, microglia regulatory negative feedback mechanism prevents neuron hyperactivity. Microglia play an important role in the stability of long-term potentiation. In addition, microglial fractalkine signaling is potentially involved in LTD. The number and morphology of hippocampal microglia is altered in response to chronic stress exposure thus consequently becomes reactive phenotype. This effect is mediated via stress hormones. Evidence show that stress also affect expression of microglial genes (cytokines, TNF-α and interleukins) that have regulatory role in learning and memory. Microglial–neuronal crosstalk which is crucial for memory processing is another site for stress-induced memory changes. Moreover, stress exposure alters glutamate transmission through negative effect on kynurenine pathway. These effects support the involvement of microglia in destructive effect of stress on memory. In this review article, focusing on newly published articles, we examine the role of microglia in synaptic plasticity, learning and memory, and especially the role of activated microglia in the effects of stress on learning and memory. By examining these processes, our aim is to provide an overview of the role of microglia in synaptic plasticity and learning and memory, and the possibility of using microglia targeting as a therapeutic method to improve cognitive deficits associated with stressful conditions

This research aims to explore the applicability of the long-tail theory within the context of electronic bookstores, using the Taaghche bookstore (Taaghche.com) as the main study case. The long-tail theory posits that cultural products, especially books with low sales but wide variation, occupy the tail of the distribution, while high-selling items with limited variation are situated at the head of the distribution. The objective of this research is to demonstrate that as the tail becomes heavier, there is an increase in variation among low-sales products. Furthermore, it posits that the revenue generated from the tail could equal or even surpass the income from the head of the distribution.

This research relies on quantitative data and employs an analytical survey method for analysis. The sample, drawn from the Taaghche electronic bookstore, consists of literature storybooks that are generally well-received. The data was collected in collaboration with Taaghche and subjected to statistical analysis.

The results indicate that as the number of books increases, the long-tail distribution becomes a more appropriate fit. Furthermore, by identifying the point where sales rates in the head and tail are equal, the tail of the plot lengthens and approximates the 98 percent Anderson rule. This suggests that 98 percent of the books have been sold at least once a year.

The results present a counter-example to the Pareto principle, which suggests that an increase in the number of available books leads to increased sales of other books. It is recommended that electronic bookstores expand their range of books, as this has a positive and direct impact on the visibility of other books. The findings clearly demonstrate that increasing the number of books not only creates a long tail in sales but also enhances the visibility of other available books, which is an intriguing observation. Generally, it can be inferred that as the number of books in an electronic bookstore increases, the findings align more closely with the long tail principle. Achieving the long tail implies an increase in the variety of books, which benefits the readership. Given today’s technological advancements and the proliferation of online communication networks and electronic bookstores, many limitations of physical bookstores, such as product storage space and accessibility, have been reduced. This development allows people worldwide, with diverse interests, tastes, and fields of study, to access electronic bookstores in the shortest possible time. Now that electronic bookstores are not constrained by physical space for book storage, it is advantageous to collaborate with publishers to expand the diversity of their books as much as possible, ensuring the satisfaction and welfare of a broader audience.

The most sublime theme in describing a healthy life based on the Islamic-Iranian model is the beautiful Quranic word “Hayat Tayyiba.” This phrase means living in the way of God and achieving high goals, reaching the truth, attaining nearness to the Almighty, and embodying divine morality. In this way of life, material comfort and well-being are realized along with spiritual development, progress, and ascension. A healthy lifestyle encompasses religious customs, instructions, and comprehensive health recommendations for living well and leading a purposeful, joyful life free from disease or abnormality. Healthy social behavior and a good way of living form the foundation of human happiness. Emphasizing justice in health and its social determinants will enhance social health and other aspects of well-being while preventing the emergence and development of risk factors for diseases. This significant social achievement will, in turn, ensure, maintain, and enhance security in society. Embracing a healthy lifestyle with an Islamic-Iranian approach will result in a balanced and meaningful personal life, and its impact on social life will contribute to society's attainment of security, order, and participation.

 The role of public libraries has changed and expanded compared to the past. Since the beginning of the new century, we have seen fundamental changes in the roles and services of public libraries, especially with emphasis on their social roles. Therefore, considering the expansion of the range of services of these libraries and their impact on society, this research aims to identify and analyze the community roles of public libraries.

 This research is practical in terms of its purpose, and the nature of the data is a qualitative type, performed with the systematic review technique and the application of the four-stage model of Okoli and Shabram (2010). To select the articles correctly in the second stage of the mentioned model, the process of selecting the articles of Silva (2015) was used. The statistical population was the texts were published in the Persian language between 1381 and 1401, and in English between 2002 and 2022. After searching the databases and retrieving 1819 articles, the articles were cleaned and screened. Finally, 201 articles related to the social roles of public libraries were selected.

 Studies related to the social roles of public libraries in the country, despite their importance, are nascent and have only been paid attention to in the last decade, so the lack of research in this field is evident. But this research abroad has met with more success among researchers, they have had a long history and much research has been carried out. The findings showed that public libraries have seven roles including 1. Promoting social justice, 2. Developing social capital, 3. Increasing social participation, 4. Promoting social resilience, 5. Community building, 6. Managing natural crises, and 7. Reducing deprivations and injuries. Social, they play in the community.

  The primary condition for success in fulfilling these roles is a complete and comprehensive understanding of the position of public libraries in the local social network. To achieve this goal, public libraries need to be aware of their societal conditions above all. By organizing activities that lead to creating a space for meeting, developing personal relationships, and communicating with members and different strata of society, public libraries present their new community roles and strengthen the position of the library as a reliable institution worthy of trust at the community level. They help by performing the roles mentioned in this research, public libraries can contribute to social development and be a positive factor in the change and evolution of society. In this way, libraries and their facilities, activities, and programs must take steps in line with the social, cultural, political, and economic needs of the communities to become a part of the community in the real sense. Therefore, they should play their role in this field and overcome the difficulties, with comprehensive measures and proper awareness and knowledge enhancement of the audience, as well as the use of human and educational resources to improve the quality of the citizens 'lives.

In recent decades, with the ban on the use of antibiotics in the poultry industry, the use of new alternatives such as probiotics and prebiotics have increased. Some of these alternatives can improve the growth and health of birds by creating optimal changes in the microbial population of the digestive tract. Therefore, the present experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of kappa-carrageenan polysacharid and primalac probiotic on the growth response and health of broilers.

240 one-day-old broilers of Ross 308 strain in a completely randomized design with 2× 2 factorial arrangement, including two levels of probiotic additive (zero and 0.1 % of food ration) and two levels of kappa-carrageenan additive (zero and 0.1 % of food ration) distributed in 24 cages (six replicates each containing ten birds) and reared on floor system for 24 days.

The growth performance of birds was not affected by the interaction of probiotics and kappa-carrageenan in the diet. However, the use of kappa-carrageenan in diets significantly increased the body weight gain of birds during 1 to 10 days of age. Feed intake of the birds was not affected by the experimental treatments and dietar levels of probiotic and kappa-carrageenan, but the feed conversion ratio was improved by adding 0.1% of probiotic in the diet at day 24 (P< 0.05). The relative weight of thigh in birds that received kappa-carrageenan was higher compared to the zero level of kappa-carrageenan in the diet (P< 0.05). Probiotic supplementation alone in the diet increased the relative weight of the liver of birds. Also, the relative weight of the liver was significantly lower in the birds that received diets containing kappa-carrageenan. In broilers fed with kappa-garakinan, the villus length increased in the duodenum and decreased the crypts depth in the ileum. The use of 0.1% of probiotics significantly increased the population of lactic acid bacteria in the ileum of birds. The population of lactic acid bacteria in the ileum of birds under 0.1% of probiotic increased significantly. Consumption of kappa-carrageenan and probiotics separately or mixed in the diet reduced the population of coliforms in the cecum (P< 0.05). Using a mixture of kappa-carrageenan and probiotic in the diet the activity of superoxide desmutase enzyme improved compared to the treatment containing kappa-carrageenan (P< 0.05).

The results of the present experiment showed that the use of probiotics and kappa-carrageenan in the diet of young broiler chickens can be effective in improving some parameters of the growth response during separate periods of rearing and optimally changing the microbial population of the digestive tract.

One of the forms of resumption of criminal proceedings is the resumption of proceedings by the head of the judiciary, which is called official proceedings. This type of resumption of proceedings, which is proposed in Article 477 of the Criminal Procedure Law, has always been the subject of discussion and criticism. The purpose of this article is to examine the jurisprudential foundations and its legal challenges. This article is descriptive and analytical and it has investigated the mentioned subject by using the library method. The findings of the article indicate that Imam Khomeini's point of view regarding the renewability of lawsuits, preventing corruption in the issuance of court rulings and the lack of jurisdiction of the ruler are the most important jurisprudential bases for resuming judicial proceedings, but this is facing many legal challenges. Ignoring the principle of correspondence and fair trial and the contradiction with the principle of the certainty of votes and the creation of uncertainty in the votes and the lack of explanation of the concept of contrary to Sharia between in Article 477 are among the most important legal challenges of resuming the proceedings of the authority in the mentioned article. It is necessary that the reinstatement of the official proceedings in the criminal procedure law is limited only to heavy sentences such as execution, retribution and stoning, in order to support the convicted person and not the plaintiff.

Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is one of the most important legume crops and it is rich in oil (47-53 %) and protein (25-36 %). Drought stress is the prime abiotic constraint, under the current and climate change scenario in future situation. Globally, abiotic stresses drastically affect crop productivity and cause to decline substantial yield. According to the reports, the decline of quantitative and qualitative yield in crops is primarily due to water deficit condition. Foliar applications of methanol and ethanol cause to increas CO2 assimilation in plants. A wide range of C3 crops have shown an increase in growth and seed yield after spraying with 10-50% methanol alcohol. Positive effects of methanol and ethanol on C3 crops have been reported for wheat, soybean and oilseed rape.

In order to evaluate of seed yield changes and some agronomic characteristics in groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) as affected by different irrigation regimes and foliar application of Ethanol Alcohol , this experiment was performed as split plat based on randomized complete block design with three replications in experimental field of Agicutural and Natural Resources Research and Education Center of Guilan Province, Astara (Kanroud research station), Iran during 2018 and 2019 cropping seasons. Four level of irrigation regimes at 25, 50 and 75 and 100 mm evaporation from class A pan evaporation and three levels of ethanol such as 10, 20 and 30 % (v:v), comprised experimental treatments, as main factor and sub factor, respectively.

All measured agronomic characteristics in groundnut were significantly influenced by the interaction effect between irrigation regimes and ethanol applications except the number of sub-branches per plant at 1% probability level (Table 2). In this experiment, the greatest days number to the initial flowering (41.5 days), days number to the end of flowering (89 days), flowering period (49.5 days), days number to the maturity (139 days), plant height (65.85 cm), biological yield (8492 kg/ha), pod yield (4067 kg/ha), grain yield (kg/ha), pods number per plant (49.26) and 100-seed weight (53.49 g) were obtained in response to the interaction effect between irrigation regim at 25 mm evaporation from class A pan evaporation and foliar application of ethanol at 20 % (v:v). But, drought stress significantly reduced all mentioned agronomic traits and foliar application of ethanol at 20 % (v:v) significantly improved these agronomic characteristics in both drought stress and irrigation conditions. In this experiment, the highest coefficient correlation was obtained between grain yield and agronomic traits such as plant height (r=0.95**), pod yield (r=0.97**), pods number per plant (r=0.92**) and 100-grain weight (0.91**).

Results of this experiment showed that irrigation and foliar application of ethanol caused to improve plant growth and grain yield of groundnut under region climatic condition. Hence, the foliar application of ethanol with 20 % (v:v) does could be recommendable to enhance plant growth and grain yield of groundnut under region and similar climatic conditions.

In Western thinking, one of the most important proofs of God's existence is reasoning through possibility and necessity. Analyzing the process of its various expressions, the characteristics of each of those expressions and their distinctions, as well as evaluating their cognitive validity and achieving a criterion or a solution for evaluation, is the motivation of the current research. The result of this research is that all expressions have been presented in two ways or with two approaches: 1. Expressions through causality or causal explanation; 2. Expressions through description and explanation or non-causal explanations. On the other hand, by examining Aquinas's and Locke's expositions, which are examples of causal explanations, we are led to the conclusion that those expositions are either reasoning through occurrence or reasoning through non-causal explanation, not reasoning through possibility and necessity, nor reasoning based on causal explanation. Therefore, their epistemological validity is under question. On the other hand, Leibniz's argument and other explanations through non-causal explanation fail to carry epistemological validity, and it is not possible to achieve certain knowledge, even based on the correct assumption.

Urban Development requires financing by urban management. Due to the inability to provide capital for urban projects, there is a growing need for private sector investment and the use of banks and institutions in many cities around the world to develop infrastructure. The purpose of this study, in terms of the nature of the application and the target is descriptive, review and prioritize internal and external factors affecting investment and the participation of the private sector in the development of a case in the city of Shiraz. The statistical population of this research included all experts in urban planning and university professors who have specialized studies in the field of urban development, urban housing, and in regional planning. Using the randomly available sampling 30 experts were selected and questioned. A data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire that included a list of opportunities, threats, strengths and weaknesses (59 items). Validity of the questionnaire (formal validity) was verified by the university professors and experts and the reliability of the tool was determined by the Cronbach's alpha coefficient equal to 0.796, which is indicative of the coherence and reliability of the data. In this study, a combination analysis (ANP) was used and SPSS, EXCEL and Super Decision software were used to analyze the information. The results showed that the most suitable strategies for the Attracting Private Sector Involvement in Shiraz Urban Development were strategies WO (0.285), WT (0.246), ST (0.125), and SO (0.122).

Noise is unwanted noise. Excessive noise is known to be a nuisance in the living and working environment. This ambient noise must be controlled and reduced to an acceptable level because high levels of noise, in addition to being annoying and annoying, also cause countless harmful effects. The purpose is to investigate and analyze the acoustic comfort in contemporary housing apartments in terms of urban spaces in Tabriz. The research method has a quantitative nature that is done as a field survey in two levels of questionnaire tools (perceptual status assessment) as well as field surveys (acoustic status assessment). The researcher-made questionnaire has been used as a data collection tool in the first part, the validity of which was assessed by a survey of professors in the field of architecture and acoustics and its reliability has been evaluated using Cronbach's alpha (0.926). All experiments related to airborne noise absorption field (background noise absorption and sound pressure level) using the 2260 device made by B&K Denmark. Initially, background noise is measured in both open and closed window modes inside the residential units. After that, SPL acoustic pressure level diagrams were drawn and evaluated using the specific and standard sound levels in decibels in different plan spaces. In the final stage, the acoustic standard of noise level (NC) is examined. The results show that the effect of traffic among other variables in the field of acoustic comfort, on the level of dissatisfaction caused by noise in urban areas in the Tabriz, is not only undeniable but also important to the extent that even with measurements The SPL sound pressure level did not change the patterns created at the noise level.

One of the basic problems and problems in the criminal justice system in Iran and other countries is the issue of delaying the proceedings. It is necessary to clarify the extent of its effect on criminal law by examining the issue of delay in proceedings. The purpose of this article is to investigate the causes of delay in criminal proceedings and provide solutions. The question of the article can be asked in this way: What are the causes of delay in criminal proceedings and what are the solutions to solve it? The upcoming article is descriptive and analytical, and the library method was used to examine the mentioned question. This research is of theoretical type and the research method is descriptive-analytical and the method of data collection is library and has been done by referring to documents, books and articles. The findings indicate that a set of human, structural and legal factors cause the delay of criminal proceedings. The level of knowledge and expertise of judges, the low number of judges and numerous criminal titles, the role of justice officers, administrative staff, the multiplicity and ambiguity in laws and litigants are some of the most important reasons.Ethical Considerations: In order to organize this research, while observing the authenticity of the texts, honesty and fidelity have been observed. At the same time, adopting the policy of decriminalization and crime prevention reduces the volume of cases and thus reduces the delay of proceedings. In addition, mandatory representation in criminal cases, more use of new technologies, provision of required expert human resources and the use of methods such as arbitration play an important role in reducing the delay of criminal proceedings.

Breastfeeding during the early months of life has benefits for both mother and baby and it is recommended that children should be exclusively breastfed for the first 6 months of their life. This study was conducted to determine the exclusive breastfeeding rate in the first 6 months of life and some associated factors in Fars Province.

This cross-sectional study was conducted on 1681 children aged 6 to 9 months. Data were collected through a questionnaire that included demographic questions and questions about breastfeeding and some predictive variables. The information was collected by interviewing the mothers in their homes. Data were analyzed via SPSS software version 16 and evaluated by descriptive and analytical tests (Chi-square test).

About 57% of infants were exclusively breastfed during the first 6 months of life. The main reason for the non-breastfeeding was the lack of enough breast milk. The variables such as residence, mother's occupation, father's education, type of delivery and place of delivery had a significant effect on the rate of exclusive breastfeeding (P< 0.05).

The exclusive breastfeeding rate in Fars Province was better than some regions of Iran and even the world and the goal of the World Health Organization for 2025 has been achieved. The main reason for the non-breastfeeding was the lack of enough breast milk, which seems to be necessary to carry out inquiries and provide useful solutions to this problem.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common debilitating disease in adults. It occurs due to the inflammatory process of demyelination of the central nervous system and has a great impact on the quality of life of these patients. Therefore, the present study was conducted to examine the impact of training positive thinking skills with emphasis on the Quran and Islamic teachings on psychological hardiness, self-compassion and body image dissatisfaction in patients with MS.

This was a quasi-experimental study with a pre-test, post-test and control group design and a follow-up stage. Out of the patients with MS who referred to Milad Hospital in Tehran during 2020, 40 were selected by available sampling method, and were randomly divided into experimental (n=20) and control (n=20) groups. Data were collected using a checklist of demographic information and Multidimentional Body-Self Relation Questionnaire, Short form of the Self-compassion Scale and Ahvaz Psychological Hardiness Questionnaire. In the experimental group, the training of positive thinking skills with emphasis on the Qur'an was performed in 10 sessions (two 1-hour sessions per week). After the training, the groups were retested. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics. In this study, all ethical considerations were observed and no conflict of interest was reported by the authors.

The results showed that the educational intervention of positive thinking combined with Islamic teachings had a positive and significant effect on increasing the psychological hardiness and self-compassion of the experimental group in the post-test stage. There was a significant difference between the two groups in the mean scores related to body image on the post-test (P<0.05). This effectiveness was also maintained during the follow-up period.

The results of this study showed that a positive thinking educational intervention combined with Islamic teachings can be effective in improving the psychological status of people with MS, and researchers and therapists can use this approach to improve health-promoting behaviors in MS patients.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) continues to be a leading cause of cancer related death in the world and approximately 70 to 75 % of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer survive for up to 1 year after diagnosis. Curcumin (CUR) is a potential chemotherapeutic agent used to treat cancer. There is ample evidence of the inhibitory effects of Hypericum perforatum L. extract (HPE) on cell proliferation and its effects on the induction of apoptosis in various human cancer cell lines.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the proapoptotic effect of HPE and its nanoliposomes (HPE-Lip) and to scrutinize the synergistic and therapeutic potential of HPE/CUR-loaded nanoliposome (HPE/CUR-Lip).

In the present in vitro study, SW1116 and SW48 cell lines were cultured and then treated with different doses of HPE, CUR, bare liposome solely (Lip-Sol), and nanoliposomes loaded with HPE (HPE-Lip), CUR (CUR-Lip) and CUR/HPE (HPE/CUR-Lip) for 24, 48 and 72 hours. Cytotoxicity was measured by MTT assay and apoptosis rate by an annexin-V FITC/propidium iodide double-staining method using flow cytometry.

The results showed that cell viability was inhibited in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner in all groups compared to the control group. The use of nanoliposomes improved the outcomes. HPE/CUR-Lip exhibited higher in vitro cytotoxic and proapoptotic activity against SW1116 and SW48 cell lines (P < 0.05).

The findings of this study suggest that the HPE/CUR-Lip complex could provide a potential strategy to achieve a synergistic effect of HPE and CUR in the treatment of colorectal cancer.

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of chloroform extract of two types of red and brown algae on proliferation, cell cycle and induction of apoptosis in breast cancer cell line.

In this experimental study, MCF7 cancer cell line and normal MRC5 cell line were cultured and then the cells were treated with different concentrations of chloroform extract of algae for 48 hours. Cell survival percentage was calculated by MTT method and type of cell death and cell cycle arrest was assessed by flow cytometry. The results were evaluated by Prism software.

The results showed that both brown and red algae reduced the proliferation of MCF7 cancer line as a concentration-dependent pattern. The IC50 concentration was 88 μg/ml for brown algae chloroform extract and 107 μg/ml for red algae. These values indicated more inhibitory effects of brown algae (63.31%) than red (58.33%). Also, these two extracts effectively induced apoptosis and stopped the cell cycle in G0/G1 stage.

This study showed that the chloroform extract of these algae can be considered as a strong inhibitor for breast cancer.

The most wildly used model in measuring and evaluating the quality of health care is the evaluating of services in the field of structure, process and outcome based on the Donabedian model. In this study with emphasise on the role of the prenatal care in improving maternal health, the Donabedian model was investigated.

This cross-sectional study was performed in 2019 on 320 pregnant women. The instruments used included midwife and client demographic information questionnaire, care structure, technical performance, satisfaction and interpersonal interaction questionnaires. Data was analyzed with SPSS-16 software and significance level of 0/05 was considered.

In this study, the mean scores of the care structure were optimal. The performance of midwives with an average score of 21.19 ± 4.89 was not at the desired level. The highest level satisfaction of clients was the way of providing service in the field of counseling and care with an average of 38.8 ± 6.10 and the lowest level of training received with an average score of 15.60 ± 5.10. Also in the interpersonal interaction section the average overall score of communication skills was 27.80 ± 1.15 and verbal skills were 19.25 ± 2.46, which is at the desired level. But non-verbal skills, active listening and privacy were average.

According to the obtained results reforming the distribution of midwives and training them in the field of importance of providing standard of care and communication skills training can increase the quality of care in all dimensions.

The present study is conducted to explain the basics of spiritual education and to present a conceptual model of spiritual education based on Sahifa Sajjadieh in education.

This research is applied in terms of purpose. The underlying approach of this research is qualitative. Analytical method of conceptual and inferential analysis has been used. The research environment includes the book Sahifa Sajjadieh and sampling in this research has been purposefully selected.

Conceptual model of spiritual education with five elements of goals; Basics; Principles; Methods of spiritual education were extracted.

God Almighty is the ultimate goal of the infinite and comprehensive truth of all values. The most important goals of spiritual education are life based on the divine will. Achieving human perfection is one of the educational goals. Since the existential structure of man is such that he can only relax in communicating with God, other intellectual and scientific endeavors of man doomed to failure are .

Granitoids are one of the most abundant and common igneous rocks in the continental crust and they formed the world's largest batholiths. They are widely distributed in Precambrian to Cenozoic orogenic belts (e.g., Raymond, 2002), but some are formed in non-orogenic zones (Blatt et al., 2006). Because much of the continental crusts in orogenic belts are composed of granitoids, they are of particular importance in explaining the petrologic processes in orogenic belts.Cenozoic magmatism of Urmieh-Dokhtar magmatic arc is intruded by Oligo-Miocene plutonic rocks in some regions (Arvin et al., 2004). An outcrop of Oligo-Miocene granites is found in Zafarghand area in the southeast of Ardestan in Isfahan Province. Sarjoughian et al. (2018), Aminoroayaei Yamini et al. (2017), Sadeghian and Ghaffary (2011), Khalatbari Jafari et al. (2016), and Ghalamghash et al. (2019) suggested that this magmatism is a result of lower crust melting during mantle wedge metasomatism, occurred by Neo-Tethys subduction.This study aims to investigate the Oligo-Miocene granodiorites of East Bideshk, which is exposed in the central part of the Urumieh-Dokhtar magmatic arc in the northeast of Isfahan city. Despite the tectonomagmatic importance of this pluton in completing the geological history of Urumieh-Dokhtar magmatic arc, there are no comprehensive petrological studies performed on Bideshk granitoid. Thus, this study considered the mineralogy, geochemistry, tectonic environment, and origin of this granodiorite.

Microprobe analysis of the minerals was performed using a CAMECA SX 100 model with 15 kV accelerator voltage and 20 nA current at Stuttgart University, Germany. The Minpet software was also used to calculate the structural formula of the minerals and plot the diagrams. Intact and less altered rock samples are selected for geochemical analysis of major, trace, and rare earth elements by ICP-MS and ICP-OES methods in the geochemical laboratory of ALS Chemex in Ireland. The LOI values are also obtained by the gravimetric method. Fe2+ and Fe3+ are calculated based on the method by Middlemost (1989). Abbreviations for minerals are from Whitney and Evans (2010).

The Eocene Granodiorite - diorite rocks outcrop in the east of Bideshk area, in the northeast of Isfahan, and along the Urumieh-Dokhtar magmatic zone. According to lithological studies, they are mainly composed of granodiorite with predominant texture are granular, granophyre, and porphyroid.The major minerals are plagioclase, quartz, K-feldspar, hornblende, and biotite. Accessory minerals include magnetite, and apatite. Calcite and chlorite are the secondary minerals. Embayed plagioclases and quartz with rounded margins and plagioclases with oscillatory zoning, sieved texture, and dusty rims show non-equilibrium conditions during magma mixing. The composition of calcic amphiboles in these rocks is actinolite- tremolite, hornblende, and magnesio- hornblende. Plagioclases in the rocks of the east of Bideshk are andesine to labradorite in composition, and some show oscillatory zoning. Thermobarometry results indicate pressure, temperature, and crystallization depth decrease from the core (average ~ 3.01-3.63 kb, 685-732℃) of hornblende crystals. Geochemical investigations show that this granitoid is metaluminous, calc-alkaline, and I-type. The primitive mantle and the chondrite- normalized patterns of Bideshk whole-rock samples show enrichment of LREE against HREE. It is in accordance with magmatism in a subduction zone. Geochemical diagrams and variation in Rb content relative to Nb can also indicate a subduction-related magma source and mantle wedge metasomatism in the east of Bideshk, during Neo-Tethys subduction beneath central Iran.
