Abstract
Women over 40 have unwanted pregnancy and abortion in a high rate. They have a little chance to choice Contraception Method.O.C.P. and IUD must be available for those who are subjected to OCP and IUD. Mechanical methods are useful while sexual intercourse is rare and with careful palnning. Today, there are different kinds of methods of contraception, so it is unreasonable why unwanted pregnancies and selective abortions in women are 40 do not show remarkable reduction.

Abstract
In this study 2510 neonates from 2465 pregnancies (2420 single fetus, 44 twins and Triplets) in Taleghani Hospital of Arak have investigated for 4 months. Any type of evident anomaly at time of the deliveries that diagnosed by reasercher has accepted as an anomaly only when it confirmed by podiatrist. Thus the overall congenital anomaly incidence was 1.04%. The congenital anomaly incidence in the male neonates (1.34%) was about two items more than female neonates(0.72%). But the differences between them is not significant ( P=0.0.26) The congenital anomaly incidence in neonates with gestational age aqual to or above the 38 weeks was 0/89% .The difference between them was significant(p=0.0042). The congenital anomaly incidence in neonates with body weight below 2500 gr was 2.59% and and in neonates with body weight equal to or above the 2500% gr was 0.91%.The difference between them is significant(P=0.0264). Between the congenital anomaly incidence in neonates by then maternal age and pariety aren’t significant difference. The difference between anomalies incidence in single fetus deliveries and multiple fetus in significant(p=0.0244). The congenital anomaly incidence in neonates with relative parents was 2.14% and in other newborns was 0.9% .The difference between them significant (P<0.005)

Abstract
Serum concentration of lipoprotein(a) is a genetically determined. Independent risk factor for coronary artery disease. Different studies suggest a possible role for a antioxidant and free radicals in the rate of lipoprotein (a) synthesis. Patients suffering from chronic renal failure (CRF) are known to be less guarded against oxidative products in comparison with normal population. In order to investigate the pattern of lipoprotein (a) serum concentration in CRF group, 87 number of patients undergoing supportive hemodialysis was selected and their Lp(a) serum concentration were compared with a control group (n=100). The result shows a significant elevation of LP(a) serum concentration in the patients in comparison with the control group (p,0.05).

Abstract
Injuries to the ureter and bladder is one of the most complications in obstetrical and gynecological surgery. Injury to this organs are unavoidable even for the most experienced gynecologic surgeons. According to this study 45 cases of injuries to ureter and bladder have been observed. The incidence of injury to bladder was 82.3% and of ureter was 17.7% repeated cesarean section (31%) first cesarean section (15%) abdominal hysterectomy (15.5%) and vagina operation(7%). Bladder dome were more common than the bladder base (injuries of 85% cases). Diagnosis of ureter injury have been done during operation and in the reminder diagnosis have been delayed. Injuries were during abdominal operation, while less injuries were seen during vaginal operation. Pelvic adhesions due to repeated cesareans section & markedly enlarging uterus at the time of abdominal hysterectomy were most important risk factors for injury to the bladder and ureters.

Abstract
Introduction: Iron deficiency anemia is the most common type of anemia in the world and the most important disease which has overlapping diagnosis with it is & thalassemia minor. For diagnosis of theses two diseases, serum ferritin measurement and hemoglobin laboratories throughout the country now, finding some tests which are easier. More available and cheaper for different of these two mentioned diseases, are useful. Therefore in this article, reticulocyte counting test, after a short period of iron consumption, was evaluated.
Material and Method: This study is descriptive and cross-sectional. The sample population consists of 69 patient with hypochromic microcytic anemia which serum ferritin measurement, reticulocyte counting and hemoglobin electrophoresis for each of there were done. After 7 days treatment with oral iron tablet, reticulocyte counting test for each of them was done. If reticulocyte counting test had increased, the patient was considered as iron deficiency anemia, on the other hand, the results of reticulocyte count test was compared with serum ferritin test and hemoglobin electrophoresis results and then, sensitivity as well as specificity of mentioned test, were analysised.
Results: Sensitivity and specificity of mentioned test for iron deficiency anemia were 82 and 67 percent and in B thalassemia minor were 64 and 78 percent, respectively. These results show high sensitivity of this test for iron deficiency anemia and high specificity for B thalassemia minor.
Conclusion: It seems that, in circumstance which serum ferritin measurement and hemoglobin electrophoresis aren’t available, applying reticulocyte count test for deferenciation of these two diseases, is helpful.

Abstract
Introduction: One of the most important health problems of the country is parasitic infections, specially intestinal parasites which have relatively high prevalence rate through out the world. Theses infections can cause iron deficiency anemia, physical and mental retardation among children and family members. Since mothers come to account as the base of the family and each their deviation of health can consider as a risk factor for them and the other family members, this study was conducted to determining prevalence rate of intestinal parasitic infections among mothers and associated demographic factors.
Materials and Methods: This survey is a descriptive analytical study which cross-sectionaly was done based on systematic randomized sampling method on 1650. Mothers in three regions of the town. Their feces were examined three times by formalin ether concentration technique. Of course for gathering data about demographic factors, questionires were filled all infected mothers.
Results: of 1650 case, 801 mothers (48.5%) were infected by intestinal infections:110 mothers (13.73%) m were infected by pathogenic intestinal infection, Giardia lambia 89 case (5.39%) was the commonest infection, entamoeba histolytica 12 cases (72%), hymenolepsis nana 5 cases (3%), ascaris 3 case (1.18%) and tenia saginata 1 cases (0.6%) respectively. 691 mothers (869.2%) were infected by nonpathologenic intestinal infection. E.coli 313 case(19%), blastocystic hominis 267 cases (16.18%), endolimax nana 67 cases (4%), lodamoeba buetschlii 34 cases, (25%) and chilomastix mesnili 10 cases (0/6%) respectively.
Conclusion: In this survey, there was no significant relationship between infection rate and demographic factors like age, job, level of literary and residence region. However the findings showed that the highest rate of pathogenic intestinal parasitic infections were 7.8% (43 cases) in down town, 6.72% (37 cases) in town center and 5.45% (30 cases) in uptown.

Abstract
Introduction: Alimentary parasitic infections are still one of the main problem in developing countries, and their relation with environmental factors are important. Since children are more vulnerable to these infections, in basic researchers this group is more targeted.
Materials and Methods: This descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study was carried out on 1-13 years children who were living in Shahrak-e-Valiasr Arak. Simple random sampling was used for selecting 385 children. Three days collected feces samples from each person were examined using formaline-ether concentration technique. Data were analyzed by Chi square method.
Results: The results showed a prevalence of 42.3% of intestinal parasitic infections in the children. From these, 17.4% were pathogen parasits. The highest prevalence was reported for Giardia lambia (16.6%). Girls were more infected than boys. The level of infection was significantly increased by age. The prevalence of the infection was more in orphans or in children who had uneducated parents.
Conclusion: Since date indicated of a high prevalence of intestinal parasitic infections in the children. It is suggested to use washed and clean vagetables and fruits and also emphasize on personal and environmental hygiene.
