Background: Asthma is a leading cause of chronic illness in children, impacting heavily on their daily complications. The purpose of the present study was to relationship bronchodilator response (BDR) with oxygen pulse (OP) and ventilatory threshold (VT) in asthma children with various body compositions during progressive aerobic activities.
Material and Methods: 25 obese children (BMI>25 and %fat>30)with asthma(10 subjects), and healthy children (15 subjects) and 25 lean children(BMI<20 and %fat<20) with asthma(13 subjects), and healthy children (7 subjects) performed an exercise protocol in a constant temperature environment 2 ± 22 ° C and humidity (5 ± 35%). During exercise, the steady-state levels of cardio-respiratory parameters were measured using gas analyzer (K4B2).
Results: The results showed that after a progressive aerobic activity, values peak oxygen consumption(vo2peak) , bronchodilator(BDR), oxygen pulse(OP) and ventilatory threshold(VT) in lean and obese asthmatic children were lower than in healthy lean and obese children. In addition, lean children with asthma had lower VT and higher VO2peak , OP and BDR values, as compared obese asthmatic children. Between BDR and VT in lean and obese asthmatic children an inverse relationship between BDR and OP and a direct link to asthma in obese children and obese asthmatic children, there was a negative relationship non-significant.
Conclusion: Compared with lean children, asthma, obesity as an additional load will affect lung function and increase the pressure on childhood asthma. Therefore, we can accept that obesity may limit performance of exercise in childhood asthma.

Background: The most important natural radioactive resource to which people are exposed is Radon gas. Radon gas produced deep in the earth enters into underground waters and dissolves in them. The Radon gas in water supplied for home uses enters the body by either drinking water or inhaling Radon gas released into the air and causes stomach and lung cancers. The purpose of this study is determination of annual effective absorbed dose of Radon gas in Rafsanjan and Anar residents.
Material and Methods: This study is experimental and is done on 36 randomly selected resources of drinking and agricultural water in Rafsanjan. Measuring the concentration of Radon gas dissolved in water by the electronic detector RAD7 and statistical analysis of data, the annual absorbed dose of Radon gas by adults and children continually using water of these sources is estimated.
Results: The minimum and maximum amount of Radon gas concentration in drinking water are 0.32±0.12 Bq/lit and 13.90±2.45 Bq/lit while the minimum and maximum amount of Radon gas in agricultural resources of water are 3.68±1.25 Bq/lit and 24.51±3.87 Bq/lit, respectively. Therefore, the annual absorbed dose of Radon gas by adults and children using drinking water is between 3.16±1.17 µSv/year and 136.22±24.01 µSv/year and 4.33±1.61 µSv/year and 186.95±32.95 µSv/year, also it is between 36.06±12.25µSv/year and 240.20±37.93µSv/year and 49.49±16.81µSv/year and 329.66±52.05 µSv/year for those using agricultural water
Conclusion: it has been concluded that the amount of Radon gas dissolved in the water of this region is approximately high however, different methods of releasing the existing Radon gas of drinking water along with informing people about the dangers of this gas can decrease the natural exposure caused by Radon gas.

Background: Extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) have emerged as important mechanism of resistance among enterobacteriaceae family. These ESBL positive strains are major problem in hospitalized patients. The goal of this study was the survey emergence of multi-drug resistant ESBL producing strains among enterobacteriaceae members isolated from patients blood samples using BACTEC 9240 automatic system in south of Iran.
Materials & Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 4825 blood samples were collected from hospitalized patients, and positive samples were detected by BACTEC automatic system. Positive blood cultures removed from BACTEC and subculture was performed on microbiological media including blood agar, chocolate agar and MacConkey agar. The isolates were identified based on biochemical tests embedded in the API-20E system. Susceptibility testing (disc diffusion) was performed according clinical and laboratory standards institute (CLSI, 2013) guidelines. Phenotypic detection of extended spectrum beta-lactamase producing isolates was performed by double disk synergy test (DDST).
Results: Total 1145 (24%) blood cultures were positive that among them 248 (21.5%) belonged to the enterobacteriaceae family. The most common isolates in this family were Escherichia coli (46.5%), Klebsiella spp. (28%), Enterobacter spp. (13.5%). Among enterobacteriaceae family, ampicillin was most effective drug against Salmonella isolates. Escherichia coli was the most common ESBL-producing isolate (58% of isolates were ESBL positive). Respectively, polymyxin B, colistin, imipenem were the most effective drugs against ESBL-positive Klebsiella strains. The ESBL-positive Enterobacter strains showed lowest resistance to imipenem (7.7%). All ESBL positive Serratia isolates were sensitive to chloramphenicol, co-trimoxazole and imipenem.
Conclusion: Results showed unfortunately betalactam antibiotics are not effective against more than 40% of bacteremia caused by Escherichia coli and Klebsiella and 39% bacteremia caused by Enterobacter. Multi drug resistance strains are increasing and treatment of infections causing by this isolates are major problem in Iran.

Background: Calorie input reduction (CIR) can improve central nervous system functions. However, there is no study dealing with the effect of CIR on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis activity as the main neuro-endocrine system in this regard. In the present study, the effect of CIR (intermittent feeding) on metabolic responses to stress was examined.
Material and Methods: Female mice with an average weight of 27 ± 3 g were divided into 4 groups of 7. The control group received adequate food and water without stress. The second group was deprived from food (2 hours/day for seven consecutive days) and then electro foot-shock stress was applied to them for 4 days. The third group was deprived from food 2 hours/day for a week, and the fourth group received 4 days of electric shock without food deprivation. Blood samples were collected from all animals for plasma corticosterone evaluation.
Results: Stress and intermittent food increased plasma corticosterone levels while intermittent feeding when combined with stress, no increment was observed in plasma corticosterone level. Stress decreased food intake, but the intermittent feeding with or without stress increased food intake. Stress and intermittent feeding decrease delay to eating time whereas this was opposite in the group in which received both stress and intermittent feeding. Stress and intermittent feeding did not affect the animal's weight gain. In addition, fecal material was decrease in groups experience stress, intermittent feeding and stress in combination with intermittent feeding.
Conclusion: Intermittent feeding inhibits stress-induced metabolic responses. This inhibition in plasma corticosterone level, feeding and weight gain were observed.

Background: Sea cucumbers are belonging to echinoderms and one of the important members of the food chain in temperate ecosystems and tropical coral reefs. The medicinal and nutritional uses of these invertebrates are primordial and are important as ecological, biological and economic properties. Holothuria Scabra, as one of the most valuable commercial species of sea cucumber in the world, is the dominant species in many Persian Gulf coasts such as the Bushehr province coasts. Conspicuous characteristics such as the use of inexpensive foods in their culture, the rather rapid, easy and low cost growth and reproduction, the possibility of culture with other fish, reduce the organic substrate in pools, the broad tolerance in water factors changes such as salinity and temperature it has selected them to culture.It seems they are containing the significant amounts of nutrients, especially appreciated fatty acids. Therefore, the aims of the current study are determination of total fat content, quality and quantity evaluations of some physicochemical parameters such as acid value (AV), peroxide value (PV), and refractive index (RI) as well as, identify the profile of fatty acids in the fat.
Materials & Methods: In this study, after collecting the 36 samples of sea cucumbers from the coasts of the bushehr province, sample preparation, and extraction of fat, their fatty acids profile were analyzed using gas chromatography with flame ionization detector (GC-FID).
Results: The peroxide and the acid values were 0.62±0.0435 and 0.7553±0.0034. The optical refractive index of the oil was 1467 at 26°C, and total fat was also 2%. Among 19 identified fatty acids obtained from the GC analysis of Holothuria Scabra oil, fatty acids: heneicosanoic acid, linoleic acid, palimitic acid, stearic acid, linoleic acid, and Meristic acid, with respectively amounts of 40.81%, 27.5%, 15.24%, 4.73%, 4.46% and 2.38% had the highest values, and other fatty acids were negligible.
In a current study, the total amount of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, were respectively 59.194% and 40.806%.
Conclusion: Evaluation of H. Scabra oil revealed that the sea cucumber is a rich source of fatty acids, particularly unusual and rare fatty acids, such as heneicosanoic acid with different uses in pharmaceutical, medical, cosmetic, and industrial areas. In accordance with the valuable biological effects of heneicosanoic acid such as inhibition of p53 it is recommended some studies such as their anticancer effects also, because of the adequate geographical conditions at Bushehr, it is proposed the culture of these advantageous animals.

The phylum Cnidaria is a large, diverse and ecologically important group of marine invertebrates, which produce powerful toxins and venoms. The number of marine natural product from cnidarians isolated from class Anthozoa. Among the Anthozoa, the order of zoanthids are sessile, clonal and mostly brightly colored invertebrate which produce high biodiversity of cytolitic, neurotoxic and cardiotoxic compounds. Zoanthids containing palytoxins are reportedly among the most toxic marine organisms known.
