[ 1 ] - Comparison of Total Fat, Percentage of Fat, Trunk Fat, Soft Lean and Mass Waist-Hip Ratio between Diabetic type II and Matched Non-Diabetic Iranians using Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis

Introduction: Research shows a relationship between diabetes (type II) and obesity. Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) is a relatively new and approved method for the measurement of body composition. The aim of this study was to compare diabetic and non-diabetic adults on the basis of waist-hip ratio, total fat, percentage of fat, trunk fat, and soft lean mass. Methods: In this cross-sec...

[ 2 ] - تعیین مناسب ترین نقطه برش جهت شاخص نسبت دور کمر به دور باسن: مطالعه بر روی یک جمعیت بزرگسال

Introduction & Objective: Proportion of Waist-to-Hip Ratio (WHR) is an indicator of abdominal obesity, which is supported by some studies but rejected by others. The aim of this study was to examine the accuracy of the WHR and obtain suitable cut- off points for detecting obesity among adult Iranians. Materials & Methods: In this cross-sectional-descriptive study the sample consisted of 19366 a...

The aim of this study was to compare the risk factors frequency in patients with ST-elevation MI & patients with non ST-elevation MI referring to Hamadan Ekabatan hospital in 2012. Materials & Methods: In this cross sectional- descriptive study with referring to the files of patients, those having AMI ...

[ 4 ] - دقت دسته بندی به روش گالاگر در شناسایی افراد دارای اضافه وزن و چاق با استفاده از نقطه برش استاندارد طلایی

Introduction & Objective: In the year 2000, Gallagher presented a new classification for body mass on the basis of the Percentile of Body Fat (PBF), age, and sex. The World Health Organization defines gold standard for obesity as PBF>25% in men and >35% in women. The primary purpose of the study was to evaluate the accuracy of Gallagher’s classification in detecting overweightness and obesity o...

[ 5 ] - Antifungal effect of essential oil of Bunium persicum on Candida albicans, In vitro study

Introduction: Bunium persicum is a gramine plant from Umbelliferae family. Candida albicans is a kind of yeast known as normal flora of skin and gastrointestinal tract (GIT), respiratory and genitourinary (GU) mucosa. This fungi makes disease in immunodeficient individuals. The aim of this study was to assess the antifungal effect of essential oil of Bunium persicum on Candida albicans. Methods...

[ 6 ] - The effect of cardiovascular risk factors in diabetic patients based on literacy level, knowledge and behavior related diabetic disease

Introduction: Cardiovascular disease is the major diabetic phenomenon leading to early death. The incidence of cardiovascular disease is reduced by controling blood pressure (BP), lipid modification and blood glucose level. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of cardiovascular risk factors in diabetic patients based on literacy level, knowledge and diabetic-related behavior. ...

[ 7 ] - The relationship between knowledge, self-efficacy and quality of life with glycemic control and lipid profile in smoking diabetic patients

Introduction: Based on world health organization definition, quality of life is each individual's perception from his or her life position with respect to cultural and social situation. This study is aimed to investigate the relation between knowledge, self-efficacy and quality of life with glycemic control and lipid profile in smoking diabetic patients.

[ 8 ] - The Accuracy of Body Mass Index and Gallagher’s Classification in Detecting Obesity among Iranians

Background: The study was conducted to examine the comparability of the BMI and Gallagher’s classification in diagnosing obesity based on the cutoff points of the gold standards and to estimate suitable cutoff points for detecting obesity among Iranians.Methods: The cross-sectional study was comparative in nature. The sample consisted of 20,163 adults. The bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)...

[ 9 ] - Comparison of Muscle Mass, Total Body Water and Total Body Protein in Type II Diabetics with Healthy Matched Adults by Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis

Background: Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a new and rapid technique to validate body composition. Several studies have used this technique to evaluate body compositions, such as muscle mass, in diabetic patients, but the results are very different. This may due the differences between diabetic patients and control group. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the muscle mass of diab...
