Abstract
Introduction: In order to improve the oral health, systematic analysis of oral health condition and related factors should be conducted. This study aimed to evaluate dental caries and some related factors in 35-44 years old men & women in five urban areas of Sistan and Baluchestan in 2009-2010.
Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study, 550 people were chosen by random stratified clustering in five different urban areas of the province. All participants were examined and the DMFT index was determined. Demographic and social information and their oral health behaviors were registered in a questionnaire which was composed of 11 questions. The data were analyzed by SPSS (version 17) and descriptive statistic methods.
Results: Statistical analysis showed that average of DMFT was 10.05 ± 7.186. DMFT in females (11.43 ± 7.5) was more than males (8.68 ± 6.6) significantly (P< 0.001). A significant difference was found between ethnicity and DMFT (P< 0.05) while analysis did not reveal any difference between income, level of education, time and number of daily brushing. (P> 0.05)
Conclusion: Results of this study could be used by public health managers to plan and evaluate public health in the future. With an emphasis on improving high risk patients’ situation, appropriate interventions can be designed to achieve good results in the short and long term

Abstract
Introduction: Acute diarrhea remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality among infants and young children as well as an important determinant of growth faltering in the world. Significant proportions of children who suffer from diarrhea are malnourished with depleted micronutrient stores. Diarrhea also leads to excess loss of micronutrients such as zinc and copper.
Methods: This study was a clinical trial. The samples were collected from the children admitted. The children were randomly assigned to zinc and control groups among which zinc group received 2 mg/kg of zinc supplementation daily. A questionnaire was utilized as the research instrument containing the demographic information as well as number of stools and duration of admission.
Results: After starting supplementation, the mean duration of diarrhea was 3.7±0.95 days in the zinc group and 4.6±1.8 days in the control group, showing a significant difference (P<0.05). The number of stools after starting zinc supplementation were 6.2±3.6 and 6.8±4.1 on the first day, 4.3±2.9 and 4.6±2.9 on the second day, 2.5±1.8 and 3.3±2.4 on the third day, 2.2±1.1 and 2.7±2 on the fourth day, 2±1.4 and 2.6±1.8 on the fifth day, and 0 and 3.6±1.6 on the sixth day in the zinc and control groups respectively. There was no significant difference in diarrhea severity in the treatment group (P>0.05) except on the sixth day.
Conclusion: Zinc supplementation reduces the duration of acute diarrhea in admitted 1-60 month old children but has no effects on severity of acute diarrhea except on the sixth day of diarrhea duration.

Abstract
Introduction: Krupple-like factor4 is a transcription factor which is involved in many cancers including Breast cancer. Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women. Due to the high prevalence of these tumors, there are ongoing efforts to find molecular markers which can recognize nontumoral from tumoral tissues. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the potential usefulness of KLF4 as a potential diagnostic and therapeutic molecular marker in breast cancer.
Methods: In the current study, 31 tumoral and 21 non tumoral adjacent tissues were evaluated. Transcription levels were measured by Semiquantitative Reverse Transciptase-Polymerase Chain Reaction and were normalized by the ß2m as an endogenous PCR control. Data was analyzed by spss software, one-way ANOVA and T-test.
Results: The results showed that: 1) KLF4 is over expressed in Breast tumors rather than adjacent normal tissues. 2) KLF4 is an oncogene in breast tumors (at least in IDC type). 3) The KLF4 expression levels are related significantly with nature of malignant breast tumors.
Conclusion: Findings do not confirm KLF4 as a diagnostic marker in classification and identification of tumoral tissues from non-tumoral ones in breast, but we can use this marker to identify at least 50% of invasive Ductal Carcinoma in breast and utilize it as a potential predictive factor to demonstrate severity degree in various tumors.

Abstract
Introduction: Due to preventing unnecessary exposure to x-ray, the dentists must acquire adequate information about radiography.
Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on general dentists working in Yazd City, selected by convenience sampling method. The data were collected using a three-part questionnaire, the first part included demographic information of the dentists (age, gender, work experience, education level), and the second part contained the effective clinical findings in radiography (patient age, sex, history, radiographic costs, patient preferences, clinical observations, type of radiographic imaging system).
Results: 120 dentists with an average age of 37.38 ± 9.88 were in this study. The greatest impact factors on decision making by dentists in prescribing radiography were: surgical treatment plan (87.5%), toothache (75%), poor oral hygiene and heavily restored dentition (73.3%) and those who afraid of X-ray exposure were the least effective factors. The top radiographic choice of most of the dentists for diagnosis of occlusal caries was periapical radiograph, with 55%, even though according to the existing researches bitewing radiography would be the effective method. The top choice for the diagnosis of interdental caries was bitewing radiography with 88.3%, which matched the existing researches.
Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, it can be said that the dental community has little knowledge in the field of radiography for the diagnosis of occlusal carieshowever most of the dentists were right about diagnosing interdental caries. Therefore, it is important to hold retraining courses in order to maintain and improve the level of awareness of dentists and their familiarity with the latest radiographic techniques.

Abstract
introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of
backward gait training protocol on ground reaction forces in Patients with medial knee Osteoarthritis.
Methods: This quasi-experimental study was performed with a pretest-posttest design in two groups of healthy and unhealthy and the experimental group (participants with medial knee osteoarthritis). The participants were 21 healthy and 42 unhealthy men with knee osteoarthritis who were divided into two experimental and control groups according to the Kellgren and Lawrence radiologic scale and
the visual analogue scale. The experimental group performed
backward gait training for six weeks. Two Kistler force plates (1000Hz) were used to measure parameters by Vicon Nexus 1.8.5, Polygon 4.1.2 software. For statistical analysis One-Way ANOVA test was used through SPSS, version 20 (p≤0.05).
Results: Before training, there was a significant difference between the groups of the patients and healthy participants for the first peak of vertical (Fz1) and vertical valley (valley), braking force (AP1), propulsive force (AP2) of ground reaction forces (P<0.05). The training protocol had a significant effect on increasing propulsive force (P
Pre=0.021, P
post=0.068) and braking force (P
Pre=0.022, P
post=0.077) in the experimental group compared to the healthy group; and there was no significant difference between the groups after training compared to pre-exercise (baseline). Exercise did not affect on the components of vertical force.
Conclusion: Loss of braking-pushing forces and first peak of vertical ground reaction force (Fz1) could reflect limb pain or poor performance. Backward gait training protocol had a significant effect on braking-pushing forces.

Abstract
Introduction: The core muscles of trunk are activated before movements of upper and lower limbs. Current evidence suggests that lose of stability in core region predisposes to second injury and appropriate exercise may reduce the risk of reinjury. This aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of eight weeks core stability exercises on dynamic balance, function and strength in athletes. after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
Methods: This study was a randomized clinical trial. 26 athletes with a history of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction were purposefully selected and randomly divided into experimental and control groups.the experimental group performed core stability exercises for eight weeks and the control group performed their daily exercises. Dynamic balance, isometric strength and function were meaured using Y balance test, hand held dynamometer and hop tests. Data were analyzed using SPSS vrsion16 software. Independent t-test was used to compare demographic characteristics and Mixed Repeated Measures ANOVA was used to compare the means of the two groups (p≤.05).
Results: The results of the present study showed significant improvement in dynamic balance (F=143.92, P=0.000), single-leg hop (F=68.25, P=0.000), triple hop (F=14.02, P= 0.001), knee flexor strength (F=50.21, P=0.000) and knee extensor strength (F=54.72, P=0.000) in the experimental group after eight weeks of core stability exercises.
Conclusion: Based on the results of present study, it is suggested to the specialists and trainers involed in the rehabilitation of athletes to use comprehensive and useful core stabilization exercises in the rehabilitation stages of knee injuries.
