Abstract

Samples of 744 person from 14875 population of 17 villages in plane area and 502 persons from 10031population of 11villages in forest area (1246 person in total) that was 5% of the total population of two regions were collected. In this study the percentage of infection with intestinal parasites for age, sex, literacy, area condition (plane -forest), and the type of drinking water (pipeline - nonpipeline) was determined. The laboratorial diagnosis of the stool sample was performed by two methods the direct method and the formalin - ether - method. The prevalence of infection with all parasites in two areas was 43.9%, that infection with pathogenic parasite was 28.25% the most prevalence of infection with intestinal protozoa was for Giardia lamblia (17.82%) that the highest percentage of infection was in housewives (20.43%) . The prevalence of infection with Entamoeba histotytica was 4.97%. The prevalence of other intestinal protozoa was found as below: Entamoeba coli 6.82% , Iodamoeba butschli 1.68% , Endolimax nana 6.09% , Blastocytis hominis 8.19% , Chilomastix mesnili 1.12%. The most prevalence of infection with Hymenolepis nana (3.61%) that the highest rate was found in animal husbandmen. The prevalence of infection with Hook worms (2.25%) was in the next range that the highest percentage of infection was found in farmers especially in rice farmers. The prevalence other intestinal parasites was found as below: strongyloides stercoralis 1.0-1%, Enterobius vermicularis 0.32%,Trichostrongylus 0.24%, Ascaris lumbricoides 0.4%.

Abstract

Background: Chronic renal failure leads to several functional disturbances in the regulation of body fluid composition, excretion, and metabolism which is known as uremic syndrome. There are reports of chronic renal disturbances following adenine containing food regimens in animals. In this study, the effect of intraperitoneal injection of soluble adenine on chemical composition of serum and urine osmolality was investigated.
Materials and Methods: In this experimental study different concentrations of soluble adenine were injected to Sprague-Dawly rats from days 2 to 16 after birth. Factors such as serum and urine osmolality, urine volume and serum chemical factors such as glucose, urea, creatinine, sodium, potassium and body weight were measured after the injection of adenine up to 140 days.
Results: Serum osmolality, urea and creatinine increased after adenine injections, while body weight, urine osmolality and urine volume decreased. Meanwhile, the concentration of serum glucose, sodium and potassium did not show any significant changes.
Conclusion: Adenine induces an imbalance in many chemical factors of serum in chronic renal failure. Further studies on the effect of adenine reduction in diet on uremic syndrome are recommended.

Abstract

Background and Objective: Some changes in newborns growth indices are related to several risk factors; though, a distinct etiology is unknown. Due to the available evidence about highly concentrated levels of lead in our province particularly in comparison to non-contaminated regions, this study was designed to evaluate the relationship between lead levels of umbilical cord blood and newborns birth weight variations in Zanjan, Iran.
Materials and Methods: 300 newborns were enrolled in this case-control study in Zanjan province. Cord blood samples were obtained  from 150 low birth weight (LBW) infants (birth weight lower than 2500 gr) as the case group, and  150 normal weight infants (weight= 2500-4000 gr.) as the control group. The blood lead level was measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The collected data were analyzed using independent t-test.
Results: Umbilical cord blood lead level was significantly high in LBW newborns (79.17±37.10 mg/L) in comparison with the control group (73.4±42.9 mg/L). there was not this type of relationship(raised mean level of umbilical cord blood lead in LBW newborns compared to normal weight newborns)in newborn groups who distributed based on mother’s age and education level variables but there was significant statistical differences in mean level of lead in both these groups in according with gender variable.
Conclusion: High blood level of lead in cord blood samples can potentially be considered as one of the reasons for LBW.
