This study was performed with the aim to evaluate fasting rate during pregnancy and their beliefs and fasting methods during Ramadan. This descriptive retrospective study was performed on 215 pregnant women referred to Amol health care centers during Ramadan in2011. Data collection method was a questionnaire which was given to the subjects from the first of September until the end of November 2011. Data was analyzed with SPSS software (version 16) and Chi-square test and independent T-test. P 68 (31. 8%) of pregnant women were fast during Ramadan.

There were significant relationship between parity (0. 017) and gestational age (0. 029) and fasting. 71 (34%) of pregnant women believed that fasting is harmful for mother and 143 (66. 7%) believed that it is harmful for fetus. The most common complications observed in mothers were the weakness and fatigue. Prenatal care for fasting pregnant women was not changed. Head circumference and neonate''s weight were normal. The mother knowledge about the law of fasting during pregnancy and fasting method in is not enough، and must be promoted.

Pregnant mothers always faced with the question of whether or not fasting is harmful for their babies. The research in this area has had conflicting results. Therefore, in order to answer this question, we compared the neonatal growth parameters of mothers who had dealt with this matter and without. Subjects and This cross sectional study was conducted during 2009-2013 on 1020 neonates at Maternity ward of Ghaem hospital in Mashhad, Iran. Newborns were divided into two groups based on maternal history (infants of mothers who had been fasting for at least 10 days during pregnancy = 614 infants) and control (babies from non-fasting mothers = 386). The growth parameters at birth (weight, height, head circumference) were compared between two groups. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 11.5, Pearson correlation coefficient, independent t-test, and Mann Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests. The first minute Apgar scores were 8.3 vs. 8.6 (p=0.000), and the fifth minute Apgar scores were 9.1 vs 9.3 (P=0.000) in the control group vs. case group. Average heights of infants were 48.3 cm in the control group and 49 cm in the case group (p=0.098 (. The average birth weights were 3000 g in control group and 3170 g in case group (p=0.065). Average head circumferences were 33.7cm in the control group and 34 cm in case group (p=0.201(. Based on our findings, neonatal growth parameters were better in the fasting pregnant mothers compared with the non-fasting pregnant mothers. However, this difference was not significant. Newborns of fasting mothers were better at birth.

This study assessed the mid-term changes in anthropometrical and biochemical factors as well as nutritional status and physical activity level with regard to nocturnal eating during Ramadan، for the first time. Via an easy sampling، the cohort study was conducted in 49 women aged between 20 and 45 years who were recruited from Shahid Motahari Hospital in Isfahan. The subjects were divided into two groups based on their nocturnal eating pattern. Anthropometrical and biochemical parameters were measured three days before Ramadan، on the third day of Ramadan، and thirty days after the end of Ramadan. A 147 food items frequency questionnaire was used for the assessment of nutritional status t. Repeated measure test was employed to determine changes over time، and the interaction effects between times and nocturnal eating status. The body weight and body mass index of the women who consumed the nocturnal meal was significantly different from those of the subjects who did not consume the downset meal (p value =0. 006). There were significant differences in energy، carbohydrate، and fat intake as well as serum triglycerides، HDL-cholesterol، and physical activity levels between the three time periods. Serum glucose، cholesterol، and LDL-cholesterol were not significantly different between the two groups. Ramadan fasting has beneficial effects on the body weight and body mass index. Fasting causes some changes in the lipid profile; these changes can be attributed to changes in dietary habits and physical activity level during Ramadan، rather than nocturnal eating status.

Every year، as Ramadan begins، the main concern of many patients is that whether they can fast or not. The current study addresses the question in diabetic patients with regard to the sources of modern medicine and Traditional Iranian Medicine (TIM). Several studies in modern medicine have shown that fasting is not harmful and is not associated with complications in type 2 diabetic patients who are on diet or take glucose lowering agents; rather it can be helpful for these patients. This is also mentioned in the TIM sources. Therefore، taking into account the main principles of maintaining health and providing appropriate training for diabetic patients، fasting in Ramadan can be suggested for these patients.

One of the common problems people experience during Ramadan is halitosis، which sometimes bother the peers as well as the fasting individuals. The study addresses the causes and methods of prevention of halitosis with regard to the sources of modern medicine and Traditional Iranian Medicine (TIM). In the study، we have introduced five factors as the commonest causes of halitosis. To avoid these factors، some suggestions including following health measures before and during Ramadan are provided. Considering the prevalence of halitosis and lack of appropriate training about its causes and the prevention methods، training people about nutrition and maintenance of health in the TIM along with dental care could play an important role in control of the problem.

Since in Ramadan، particularly in summer، the people are at the risk of dehydration and waste materials are excreted into urine in high concentrations، the health of urinary tract، especially in patients with urinary tract stones should be carefully considered. This study was performed to evaluate the causes and preventive measures for development of problem in such patients with regard to the sources of modern medicine and Traditional Iranian Medicine. According to the findings of this bibliographic study، if renal patients avoid eating harmful foods، improve their GI status، and perform useful exercises and massages، and also take the foods that are considered in the paper، fasting is not contraindicated for these patients. Rather، it can be considered as a part of their treatment protocol and accelerate their improvement.

One of the religious duties during the holly month of Ramadan is fasting. During the fasting time, blood glucose level is decreased. Hypoglycemia decreases the individual cognition function. The standard continues performance test (CPT) determines cognitive performance of individuals. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of fasting blood glucose level on cognitive performance in the clergymen and clergywomen (religious leaders) during the holly Ramadan month in religious institutes. In this study, 110 volunteers were selected from clergymen and clergywomen who were in fasting in Ramadan month. From the whole participants 68 persons were clergymen and 42 persons were clergywomen. The selected participants were tested for blood glucose test and CPT test in four stages (Two weeks before Ramadan, second week of Ramadan, fourth week of Ramadan and finally one month after Ramadan). Data were analyzed by analytic and descriptive statistics and SPSS software. Paired t-test revealed that the blood glucose levels in the fourth week of the Ramadan month was significantly less than the ones in the second week of Ramadan. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient test confirmed a significant relation the between results of blood glucose test and CPT test (P<0.05). No significant relationship was obtained between CPT and age or gender. Results revealed that inconsistent and short time starvation in Ramadan month does not impair cognitive performance. Cognitive performance markers have been reported normal in all processes, if treats of food serves are determined about eight through twelve hours.

In islam, there are several objectives for fasting which include spiritual, psychological, social and physiological health promotion. However fasting is prohibited for women with special physiological status, patients, children. and elderly people. This study has reviewed the effects of fasting on metabolic control of diabetic patients, published in literature. In this study pubmed, sciruse, findarticles, irandoc, Sir base & Google search engines have been searched for publication on the related subject. We used key words of Ramadan, Moslem, metabolic control and diabetes mellitus to search these database. The outcome of our search showed great diversity among the results reported by different authors. Some reported that Fasting reduces some of the biochemical index and increased HDL cholestol. Other surveys concluded that fasting causes hypoglycaemia. Based on the results of many studies, Fasting did not change FBS, Insulin, C-peptide, TG, HbA1c, fructosamine, but it could lead to Hypoglycemia and reduction of body weight According to many studies, fasting is prohibited for IDDM patients and it is needed for NIDDM patients to be evaluated before fasting. Patients must be aware of the effect of diet, drugs regimen and physical activity. We also suggest both studies in national and international scales.

The study was conducted to evaluate the correlation between fasting in the month of Ramadan and mental health. Method 75 seemingly healthy Moslem men intending to fast in Ramadan 1418 lunar calendar (1376 solar calendar, 1997 Christian calendar) as they had in the previous years were studied in a two-month period. The subjects’ mental health was assessed through SCL-90-R at three stages, once in the beginning of Ramadan, then at the end of Ramadan, finally a month later. The data were analyzed through t-tests. Findings The average scores of the subjects who fasted in Ramadan showed significant difference across all scales at the end of Ramdan as well as a month later. Fasting in Ramadan only significantly reduced the average score on the scale paranoia. The reduction was still significant at the follow up, a month after Ramadan. The study demonstrated that the scores obtained by the married subjects on obsession, compulsion, and paranoia scales were higher after Ramadan as compared to single subjects; the reduction of paranoia and the overall coefficient of symptoms were greater among the employed fasting subjects than their unemployed counterparts. Results Fasting in Ramadan reduces some mental disturbances, but such reduction are not significant in most cases. There is a need for more controlled studies.
