Abstract
Introduction: A high prevalence of HCV infection among hemodialysis patients has been reported worldwide. Risk factors such as history of blood transfusion, duration of hemodialysis and recently nosocomial transmission of HCV in hemodialysis units have been identified. In this study the prevalence of Hepatitis C virus antibody and risk factors in hemodialysis patients in Markazi province is investigated. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional analythical study, blood samples were obtained from all 204 hemodialysis patients. Samples were tested for anti-HCV antibodies by using third generation enzyme immunoassay. The reactive samples on ELISA were confirmed by the third generation RIBA. Risk factors were evaluated by a questionnaire. Data was analysed using Chi square and logistic regression. Results: The prevalence of anti-HCV antibody among hemodialysis patients was 4.9%.Duration of hemodialysis was identified as a major risk factor in transmission of HCV (p=0.004). There was a significant relationship between anti-HCV positivity and previous renal transplantation (p=0.032). Female sex was another risk factor for HCV infection (p=0.030). There was no significant relationship between anti-HCV positivity and history of blood transfusion. Conclusion: Nosocomial transmission of HCV within hemodialysis units seems to be a route of infection in patients on hemodialysis in Markazi province. Application of dialysis precautions recommended by CDC can reduce the prevalence of HCV infection among hemodialysis patients in this province.

Abstract
Background: Noticing the fact that graft survival rate of kidney transplantation from live donors is more than deceased donors, this study was conducted to determine the relationship between the graft survival rate of renal transplantation and the donor source in patients transplanted from March 1999 to March 2009 in Namazi Hospital Transplantation Center of Shiraz. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective cohort study which was designed to determine the relationship between graft survival of kidney transplantation and the donor source (related live donor, unrelated live donor, and deceased donor) in 1356 patients who were transplanted in Shiraz Transplant Center, Namazi Hospital. Kaplan-Meier method was used to determine the survival rate, log-rank test was used to compare survival curves and Cox regression model was used for ruling out the intervening factors. Results: Five-year graft survival rates of renal transplantation from related, unrelated, and deceased donors were 92.4, 92.6 and 82.1%, respectively. Also, a significant relationship was seen between donor source and survival rate of the renal allograft (P>0.001). Conclusion: The findings of this study transplanted patients with kidneys from living donors (related or unrelated) have a higher graft survival rate compared with deceased donors.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Currently, the prevalence of chronic kidney disease has increased for a variety of reasons. Renal diseases, followed by dialysis and kidney transplantation, can greatly affect the People's physical and mental health. Since most of previous studies have examined the physical and often preoperative problems of kidney transplant patients and many of them have used quantitative methods, the present study aimed to investigate the psychological challenges of renal disease patients after Kidney transplantation.
Methods & Materials: The study population consisted of kidney transplant patients referred to the Nephrology Clinic of Labafinejad Hospitalin Tehran, Iran in 2019 aged 35-50 years and 1-5 years had passed since their transplantation. A semi-structured in-depth interview was done for collecting information. A purposive sampling and continued until data saturation and until no themes were available. In the end, 15 patients were interviewed. Data analysis was performed by Colaizzi’s method.
Ethical Considerations: This study with a code of IR.IAU.SRE.1398.022 was approved by the Research Ethics Committee at Islamic Azad University, Science and Research Branch in Tehran, Iran.
Results: The primary themes were divided in to 3 main themes including: Concerns and psychologically disturbing feelings, emotional and spiritual support of the family, and uncertainty of receiving specialized, financial and welfare support.
Conclusion: Patients with kidney disease after transplantation surgery have psychological challenges in addition to physical problems that are of great importance to mental health professionals. Studying these challenges can provide a deeper understanding of their psychological problems and adaptation after surgery.

Abstract
Introduction: Beyond the members of the charter board, the horizon of Amedwar Kanandah for the sake of Bimaran Niyazmand, the member of the board of the board.

Methods: This is a book in the form of a textbook and a description - an analysis with the use of the books of science and jurisprudence of his room.
Results: This type of child is based on the basis of investigations, which are believed to be valid, according to the permissibility of the organs that are nozadan with severe cranial defects, i.e., in the womb of a mother, or from a cutaneous period, but from birth in the middle of my heart; A defensible issue.
Conclusions: The use of the nostril organs affected by the cornea with limitations of the cervical spine, but with a significant meaning in the development of Rastafarian, and the use of non-main organs based on multiple rational and legal evidences; Milabashed project.
