Scaling also causes problems such as clogging and head loss in drinking water networks. The aim of this study was to determine the chemical quality and stability indicators (scaling and corrosion potential) of rural drinking water supplies of Taybad city in 2015-2016. Methods: In this descriptive/cross-sectional study, 96 water samples (from 8 wells) were gathered within 12 months and analyzed for physicochemical parameters. Then scaling and corrosion potential of water supplies was determined based on Langelier saturation Index (LSI), Ryznar Stability Index (RSI), Aggressive Index (AI), and Puckorius Scaling Index (PSI). Results: The results showed that the quality of some wells was below the acceptable limits in terms of TDS and hardness. However, other parameters such as fluoride, nitrite, and nitrate, were in standard range. In addition, the sampling stations were 50% corrosive and 50% scaling based on LSI, 50% corrosive and 50% neutral based on RSI, 25% scaling 75% neutral based on AI, and 37.5% corrosive, 25% scaling, and 37.5% neutral based on PSI. Conclusion: According to the findings, water in the study region is not in neutral state; thus, stabilizing the water before entering the distribution network is recommended as an important measure to control scaling and corrosion phenomenon. 331 Special The effect of Spiritual Support of caregivers on quality of life of children aged 8-12 with leukemia Zafarian Moghaddam Elham j Behnam Vashani Hamid Reza k Reihani Tayebeh l Namazi Zadegan Saeed m j Mashhad University of Medical Science k Mashhad University of Medical Science l Mashhad University of Medical Science m Mashhad University of Medical Science 1 7 2016 4 2 14 20 14 08 2016 08 01 2017 Background & Aim: Children with leukemia experience a decreased quality of life during different stages of treatment. Considering the importance of spirituality in health system, the spiritual health should be included in support and treatment program of caregivers of children with leukemia. This research was carried out to investigate the effect of spiritual support of caregiver on quality of life of children aged 8-12 with leukemia.

A healthy society’s indices based on the Quran depend on the evolutionary principles of one's mental health manifesting in their relationship with God and with other people. The present study investigates the strategies and guidelines to promote the all-encompassing health of individuals and families, to promote public health and to realize a healthy society and a utopia based on the Quran, accordingly. Methods: This study has been done via descriptive analysis and is based on religious studies, scientific authorities of the Quran, the Hadith i.e. one of the various reports describing the words, actions, or habits of the Islamic prophet, and through the investigation of reliable Hadith resources in the literature. Results: According to Islam and its teachings 'health' refers to not only bodily health but also spiritual health. According to the Quran and the Hadith, the reality of the Quran is ‘Shifa’ meaning healing. And this divine law is the guiding light for realization of real health. Faithfulness and its effects make a healthy person in a healthy society. Worship is both the secret to human creation and the guarantee to all- encompassing health of individuals and the society. The meaning and pervasiveness of spiritual health and its symbols are quite clear in the Quran and the Hadith. Recognition of the essence of spiritual health indicates healthy individuals and healthy societies. Imamate – leadership in Shia Islam – is the right path to Hayat-e Tayiba (i.e., noble life) and to thorough, individual, domestic and public health. Conclusion: The Islamic Republic has aimed to make an all-encompassing material and spiritual health for both individuals and societies. Understanding the indices of a healthy person necessitates the proper understanding of a healthy society’s guidelines and health promotion. The Islamic Republic of Iran’s nursing and medical system should seriously pay attention to the comprehensive meaning and philosophy in Islamic teachings in order to increase the health rate throughout the country.
