Ecological condition including physiographic factors have impact bon plant species diversity. There for it is necessary to investigate at the ecological condition in other to achieve sustainable development and natural ecosystem conservation. The present study aim is investigate the effect of physiographic factors (altitude and geographic directions) on the biological diversity of plant species...

Background and objective: Earthquake is one of the most destructive natural disasters. Earthquakes occur in urban areas, destroying buildings and injuring people living in them. Urban center buildings are among the features that are exposed to many hazards during an earthquake. One of the first measures taken after an earthquake is relief. Locating damaged buildings can speed up relief efforts....

Background & objectives: Women undergoing cesarean section may have some difficulty in self-care and also the care of their baby due to post-operative pain. Therefore, the present study was conducted to determine the effect of non-pharmacological self-care training methods on pain management in women undergoing cesarean section. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was performed on 72 women c...

Background: Post-traumatic stress disorder is a common post-event psychiatric problem that is very painful and stressful and threatens the life of the individual and society. The purpose of this study was to investigate the causal relationship between active memory, anxiety and depression with mediating psychological hardiness in people with post-traumatic stress disorder. Methods: The researc...

Objective: Women are more at risk of dying during disasters than men due to physical, biological, psychological, and cultural differences.  In the aftermath of a disaster, women experience more than usual miscarriages, premature births, inadequate fetal growth, low birth weight, sexual violence, and unwanted pregnancies.  This study aimed to evaluate the reproductive health status of women affe...

Monitoring the quality parameters of the river is very important in the management of surface water resources. One of the effective methods in this field is entropy theory which has a very good capability in designing quality monitoring network. In this research, discrete entropy theory has been studied and monitored in order to qualitatively evaluate the temporal and spatial frequencies of the...

On November 12, 2017, at 18:18 UTC, a major earthquake with moment magnitude Mw7.3 struck the Kermanshah province of Iran, causing extended damage and casualties. Thus, we explore seismicity preceding this earthquake, with the aim to understand whether the information from past events could provide some insights about the occurrence of this and other future large earthquakes. Taking into accou...

Introduction: Earthquake trauma has a wide range of psychological consequences in the affected areas. In addition, the role of Peritraumatic dissociation - as one of the consequences of trauma and the shaping factor of psychological problems - is still unknown. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to Modeling Structural Relationships between Trauma experience and Peritraumatic dissociati...

The land of Iran is a seismic active prone that is located in the mountainous and instable crust due to special geological position. Continuous tectonic stress from the Arabic and Indian plates has exposed seismic active faults. The huge and destructive earthquakes that occur every few years in this area reflect the tectonic conditions of the plateau of Iran. Since, the path of faults and fract...
