Background: After cesarean section, practices vary considerably between institutions and
individual practitioners, ranging from early oral fluids or food to delayed
introduction of oral fluids and food which may be after 24 hours or more. This
study was carried out to assess and compare the outcome of early (4 hours) and
late (12 hours) postoperative feeding after uncomplicated cesarean section done
under general anesthesia.
Materials and Methods: This study was a controlled trial. The research
population was women delivered by cesarean section in Ommolbanin hospital. The
samples consist of 82 women randomly assigned in two groups of early and late
traditional feeding. The early feeding group started oral fluids 4 hours after
surgery, followed by regular diet after return of bowel sounds. The traditional
feeding group started oral fluids 12 hours after surgery then oral solid food
was allowed after defecation. The groups were compared about gastrointestinal
complications, pain 4, 12and 24hours after surgery. Also the groups were
compared about satisfaction and wound healing. Data was analyzed using
chi-square, Fisher exact test, Kruskalwalis test, t test and Mann Whitney.
Results: flatulence intensity 24 (p=0.030(was less in early feeding group. Pain intensity12
(p=0.010) and 24 hours after surgery was less in early feeding group
(p=0.000).women’s satisfaction was more in early feeding group (p=0.000) but the
mean of REEDA score for cesarean wound healing was similar in both groups (p=0.257).
Conclusion: this paper shows the early feeding (4 hours) after
cesarean section with general anesthesia decrease gastrointestinal complication,
pain and increase women’s satisfaction.

creates many health problems. Effective technology for the removal of some of
the other methods that are attractive from an economic standpoint, the
availability and high power in remove the rest of their advantages. The aim of
this study was to investigate the uptake of heavy metals ( Cu , Cd and Pb ) by
the saffron leaves of the aquatic environment in the area is available as an absorbent.
Materials & Methods: An
experimental study in the spring and summer in 2013 in Environmental Health
Engineering Research Center of Kerman University of medical was performed.
Plantations of Razavi Khorasan dried saffron leaves were used as absorbents.
Batch experiments were performed at room temperature on a synthetic and real sample.
The effects of PH solution, absorbent dose, contact time, initial concentration
of heavy metals absorption isotherms were determined and discussed. Experiments
were performed in duplicate, to determine of mean was used the SPSS version 15.
Results: PH optimal removal of
heavy metals copper, cadmium and lead saffron leaves the absorber was 5.
The optimum absorbent for metals (0.5, 1.5 and 1.5 g) and the equilibrium
contact times (45, 90 and 90 min), respectively. The optimum conditions for the
removal of the 55.75 %, 81.89 % and 83.56 %, respectively. With increasing
initial concentrations of copper, cadmium and lead in solution, the removal
efficiency decreased. PH was important for the uptake of heavy metals. In
actual samples (Martyr Bahonar Copper Industries and battery niruelectronics)

Background: Every year thousands of people lose their
lives in car accidents, in such a manner that Iran is one of the top rank
countries in this case. One of the effective factors in this field is attitude
of drivers toward safety in driving. The present study aimed to investigate the
correlation between safety to attitude and precarious behaviors.Materials and Methods: The
present study is descriptive – analytic. In this study 384 people from interior
taxi drivers of Urmia city were selected 192 of whom were considered as the
case group with experience of accident during the past three years and
192people as control group with no experience of accident during the past three
years. The data were collected through a questionnaire. The questionnaire includes 3 parts:
1-demographic characteristics 2-safety attitude 3- specialty of personality. To
investigate the relationship between personality and attitudes to safety,
Features Pearson correlation test was used. For statically analysis SPSS
software 16 and Pearson correlation, kruskal- Wallis and Mann- Whitney were
used.Results: Results showed that
there was a significant correlation in all three scopes of attitude to safety
in drivers, assertiveness scopes, fast driving and dangerous behaviors
(p=0.001). There was no significant correlation in all three scopes of attitude
to safety and rule breaching and precarious behaviors (p<0.005). Between education level and precarious behaviors no statistically
significant relation was found (p<0.005). Also there
was no significant correlation between age, marital status, experience of
accidents, experience of driving and driving hours per week with the attitude
to safety (p>0.05).
Conclusion: Attitude
to safety has effects on precarious behaviors of drivers, so by considering the
high rate of accident in our country, it is necessary to set up training
programs on safety issues for drivers in order to improve the drivers’
attitudes to safety issues.

urinary tract infection, asymptomatic bacteriuriadue
to lack of clinical signs is important. Especially in pregnant women, anatomical and
physiological changes in the urinary tract and
immune system changes during pregnancy
increases the prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria and in some cases lead to
symptomatic urinary tract infection is serious risk to mother and fetus contains
.This study examined the Prevalence
of asymptomatic bacteriuria and its implications in pregnant women referred to the health center laboratory Torbat Haydarieh in 2013.
Materials & Methods: The study is
descriptive -cross sectional. In
thisstudy1250pregnant women referred to thehealth center laboratoryUniversity
of Medical Sciences Torbat Haydarieh in 2013. enrolled and were randomly
sampled .All pregnant women referred to the health
centers for Prenatal care Were referred to the laboratory for urine analysis and
women with 4-5 white cells in
urine or puriand women with symptoms of UTI were referred for testing urine culture
.125 patients who had a positive urine culture as case
Groupand1125 women who were free of UTI as controls Group were considered. Statistical
dataanalysiswas performedusingSPSSsoftware.
Results: The results show that10% of patients
is a symptomatic bacteriuria. The highest rate asymptomatic bacteriuria
is in the age group 20- 24 years (39%)
and the lowest rate in more than 35years (4%). Organisms isolated from cases of asymptomatic bacteriuria are
respectively: Staphilococ
epidermidis (49%) -Ecoli(34%) –Enterobacter(10%)
-Klebsiellapneumoniae(6%) and Enterococcus focal is(1
%).The most appropriate antibiotic treatment
for asymptomatic bacteriuria during pregnancy is known Amikacin that95%
sensitive and 5% of
the organismswere resistantto it. The second antibiotic appropriate
cefotaxime for treatment of asymptomatic bacteriuria in pregnant women is cefotaxime
that
88%sensitive and12% of the total organisms
were resistant to it. The highest resistance (51%)
seen in the antibiotic Co-Trimoxazole.
Conclusion: Urinary tract
infections can be very unpleasant side effects such as premature babies with low
weight,
high blood pressure, preeclampsia,
mother anemia and perinatal mortality to be followed .According
to importance of urinary tract infection and very adverse complications and importance health of women as mothers in the
community ,we hope this study can as a database
