Abstract
Introduction: Cesarean section is the most common surgery in obstetric department and the most common causes are subsequently dystocia, repeated cesarean section, breech presentation and fetal distress .Cesarean section surgery has many complications and decrease in the rate of cesarean section can direct to safe delivery. In this study we researched to determine cesarean rate and its causes in Markazi Province for planning to give safe delivery.
Method: In this descriptive study, all mothers that delivered during the time of research (20 days) in all centers of delivery in Markazi Province were evaluated We investigated the mothers age, delivery, type of delivery location of delivery and etiology of cesarean.
Results: The study has investigated 721 mothers with the mean age of 25.5 cesarean section rate was 29.3% .The most common causes of cesarean section were subsequency distotia (33%), repeated cesarean section (24.17%) and fetal distress (10.9%) .The rate of cesarean section in private centers (74%) was more than university centers.(26%)
Discussion: The rate of cesarean section in Markazi province is more than other countries(29.3% to 22.7%) . Distocia and repeated cesarean are the most causes but fetal distress is the third etiology to fourth etiology in other studies. This study also shows the effect of socioeconomic status in increasing the cesarean section rate.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to determining the prevalence of cigarette smoking and the causes of initiation in boy students of medical science in Arak university. Declining of smoking depends to recognizing risk factors specially in young age group and the results of this study use to evaluate the plans. This descriptive study was done with convenience sampling and studied all boy medical students in Arak university with self-administered questionaires in 77-78 curiculum. This survey instrument contained age, course of study, passed semesters, smoking bahaviour family history, praying and living site .The smoker also answered to question about time of initiation, mean of cost family information and the number who giving up the habit of smikong. 98.7% (n=475) of students with mean of age 23.06 years answered to question 34.3% had smoking bahaviour. The prevalence of smoking was the lowest among those who were married and negative family history. The prevalence of smoking in students who prayed was 1.4 of others. The most common cause of initiation were being resident with friends, stress life and initiation. Lowering we must improve the "NAMAZ" task and marriage accompaniment with lowering stress life and teaching for friend selecting and determining a suitable pattern for students in Arak university.

Abstract
Introduction: The two therapeutical methods, ambulatory phelebectomy and stripping, used in the treatment of venous varices seem to have different duration of admission and complications. In this study the variables which seemed to be different between these two approaches have been compared with each other.
Materials and methods: In an analytic cross-sectional investigation, 43 patients were operated for venous varices with stripping and ambulatory phlebectomy were studied. Gender, age, type of operation, post- operative complications (hematoma, pain and paresthesia), duration of admission and the duration of operation were recorded for all subjects.
Results: Out of 43 patients, 19 were operated by ambulatory phlebectomy and the other by stripping methods. There was no meaningful difference in the groups with respect to the sex. There was a meaningful difference between both groups with respect to hemetoma (5.3% versus 0%).The average duration of admission and operation in the stripping was virtually more than the ambulatory phlebectomy.
Discussion: The duration of operation, hematoma, pain and paresthesia was proportionally more in the stripping procedure than the ambulatory phlebectomy. Thus, ambulatory phlebectomy can be more helpful in the treatment of venous of limbs.

Abstract
Introduction: Cystic hygroma is a disorder in lymphatic vessel formation that involves the adjacent organs and can affect them due to its fast growing nature . The main treatment for cystic hygroma is surgical intervention that can have many complications after surgery. Treatments other than surgical interventions is the use of sclerosing agents. The goal of this study is to analyze the effect of Beliomycin in treating cystic hygroma . Materials and Methods: This quasi experimental study was carried out clinically at st-al Zahra and Kashanie hospitals of Isfahan from 1372 to 1383. A checklist including age, sex, cyst location, cystic hygroma volume before and after Beliomycin injection and/or surgery, was completed for each patient. Data was analyzed by T and paired T-Tests. p<0.05 was considered meaningful. Results:The study was carried out on 72 patients. 24 patients were treated with Beliomycin and 48 patient by surgery. Patients age was below 1 month up to 18 years old . Cystic hygroma was mainly located at neck region(46.8%). The average size of cystic hygroma was 103.9±29.66cm3 before Beliomycin injection and 34.91 16.19cm3 after that (p=0.004). and 43.511±7.81cm3 before surgery and 1.39±1.39 cm3 after that(p=0.006). The rate of recurrence of lymphingoma in the surgery treated group was 25.1% and in the group treated with Beliomycin was 29.2% with no significant difference. Conclusion: Regarding the considerable decrease in cyst volume after Beliomycin injection and it,s low complication compared to surgery, this method can be used as a primary treatment or supplementary to surgery.

Abstract
Introduction: Using one subcutaneous infiltration of Bopivacaine can cause a good pain relief in pediatric surgery, so the child may no longer need rectal Acetaminophen after surgery. In this study, we compared the efficacy of the two drugs. Materials and Methods: This was a clinical trial, performed on 141 pediatric patients between 6 months to 3 years old with unilateral or bilateral inguinal hernia or undescending testis. Patients were divided randomly into two groups. The first group received infiltration of Bopivacaine preoperatively and the second received the routine rectal Acetaminophen after surgery. In both groups pain score was measured with FPRS score 3,6,12 and 24 hours after surgery. After collecting data they were analyzed with T-student and Friedman tests. P<0/05 was considered significant. Results: Global FPRS pain score was lower in the group treated with Bupivacaine infiltration on 3 and 6 hours after surgery (p<0/05), but in 12 and 24 hours after surgery no significant difference was seen in the two groups. Conclusion: This study showed that, infiltration of Bupivacaine reduces pain better than Acetaminophen, especially during the first 6 hours after surgery. So because of better pain control and also single administration, we suggest using infiltralition of Bupivacaine preoperatively.

Abstract
Background: There are various factors effective in the appearance of metastasis that have been surveyed and recognized in different studies. However, the appearance of metastasis by determination of these factors cannot be predicted. One of the models used for the analysis of recurrent data and consideration of heterogeneity between patients is frailty model. Materials and Methods: In this survival study, 133 women with breast cancer were treated in Fayazbakhsh Hospital, Tehran, during 2005-2007. All patients were followed until April 2011. Frailty model was employed for the analysis of data and gamma frailty distribution was assumed with the average one and Ө variance. All statistical methods were run in R software. Results: Disease-free survival rates for 3 and 5 years were 0.78 and 0.72, respectively. During the follow-up period, the risk of metastasis was estimated to be 43%. Two factors were identified as the prognostic factors in the appearance of metastasis: tumor malignancy grade and the number of positive lymph nodes. Frailty variance was 4.27 (P=0.001). Conclusion: The significant variance of frailty component in the model indicates that patients who have identical explanatory variables face different levels of risk experiencing metastasis. Also, specific characteristics of the patients are important in the incidence of metastasis.

Abstract
Background: Colorectal cancer is the most common gastrointestinal cancer. Investigating the factors that predict survival time for these patients is important.The purpose of this study was comparison of parametric models by estimating the prediction error and also identifying the effective factors on predicted survival time of patients with colorectal cancer.
Materials and Methods: This cohort study was conducted with 600 patients who were suffered from colorectal cancer in Taleghani Hospital of Tehran between 2001 to 2005 and they were followed up for at least 5 years. For identifying the effective factors on survival time, of the patients we analyzed the data by some parametric models such as Weibull, Exponential and Log logistic and compared these models with the estimation of prediction error by apparent loss method.
Results: Among 600 patients there was 344 men (57.3%) and 256 wemon (47.7%). Of total, 151 patients were died that 62.3% of them were men. Univariate analysis showed that the effect of BMI, sex, staging of tumor, tumor site were significant but in multivariate model staging of tumor and BMI were significant. By the estimation of prediction error, the best model was Log logistic.
Conclusion: With respect to the importance of survival time prediction, we found that we can use the prediction error to compare the parametric models. In addition, because of effectiveness of tumor stages and BMI in the patients’ survival time, survival time could be increased by an on-time diagnosis and an appropriate controled diet.

Abstract
Background: Melatonin regulates the sleep-wake cycle and is protected against oxidants. Vitamin E has antioxidant effect. The aim of this study was to investigate effect of melatonin and/or vitamin E on the EEG, sleep quality and quality of life of female nurses working in hospitals in Arak.
Materials and Methods: 60 female nurses were randomly selected from hospitals in the Arak city. Participants divided into three groups (melatonin3 mg/day, vitamin E 200 IU/day and melatonin and vitamin E groups) and a control group. Before and two months after the baseline, PSQTI and the quality of life of 26 questions questionnaire were completed and EEG was recorded. Finally, the findings for both groups before and after the intervention were compared with each other.
Results: The average of sleep quality showed an improvement in groups receiving melatonin and melatonin+vitamin E (p>0.05). While data of life quality did not show any significant change between groups. In EEG activity, α waves in the range of 8-10 Hz showed maximum increase in melatonin group and minimum increase in vitamin E group. Also, α wave in the range of 10-12 Hz revealed the most decrease in the melatonin group.
Conclusion: It seems simultaneous administration of melatonin and vitamin E is able to improve sleep quality. In addition, melatonin could improve alpha-waves of brain activity.
