Introduction: Diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases in the world. Diabetes has a major impact on the quality of life of patients. The purpose of this study is the relationship between the duration of diabetes and dimensions of general health and quality of life associated with the health of diabetic patients.

Evaluation of quality of life and depression in family caregivers of patients with type 1 diabetes in Iran: A case-control study.

Objective: Diabetes as a silent epidemic and one of the top four causes of death in the world. This study was designed to evaluate the quality of life and depression in family caregivers of patients with type 1 diabetes in Iran.

Methods: The study was case-control study (cases,  = 50; controls,  = 50).

Relationship between subclinical hypothyroidism and distal-symmetric diabetic polyneuropathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus referred to Kosar Hospital in Semnan and related indicators in 2019-2020.

Introduction: Diabetes is one of the most common metabolic diseases and one of its important complications is diabetic neuropathy. Due to the relationship between diabetes and thyroid disorders, the present study was performed to determine the association between subclinical hypothyroidism and end-stage diabetic polyneuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Materials And Methods: In this descriptive, analytical study, 154 patients with type 2 diabetes referred to Kosar Hospital in Semnan were evaluated.

Prediction of Absorbed Dose to Normal Organs with Endocrine Tumors for I-131 by use of TC Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography/Computed Tomography and Geant4 Application for Tomographic Emission Simulation.

Introduction: This study aimed to predict the dose absorbed by normal organs with neuroendocrine tumors for I using single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) images and Geant4 application for tomographic emission (GATE) simulation.

Materials And Methods: Four to 5 whole-body planar scan series, along with one SPECT/CT image, were taken from four patients following Tc-hynic-Tyr-octreotide radiotracer injection. After image quantification, the residence time of each organ was calculated using the image analysis and the activity time curves.

A Homozygous Truncating Mutation in Causing IHPRF1: Detailed Clinical Manifestations and a Review of Literature.

Infantile hypotonia, with psychomotor retardation and characteristic facies 1 (IHPRF1), is a rare disorder characterized by global developmental delay and dysmorphic features. This syndrome is caused by genetic anomalies within the gene. The current report examines a 9-year-old female IHPRF1 patient.

A novel homozygous frame-shift mutation in the SLC29A3 gene: a new case report and review of literature.

Background: The SLC29A3 gene, encoding a nucleoside transporter protein, is found in intracellular membranes. Based on the literatures, mutations in this gene cause a wide range of clinical manifestations including H syndrome, pigmented hypertrichosis with insulin dependent diabetes, Faisalabad histiocytosis, and dysosteosclerosis. However, all these disorders with their different names and terminologies are actually the same entity termed H syndrome.

The Effect of Fine needle aspiration on Detecting Malignancy in Thyroid Nodule.

Introduction The prevalence of thyroid nodules is 4-7% in adults. Although less than 5% of nodules in adults are malignant, most nodules are non-neoplastic or benign. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) is a diagnostic technique for evaluation of non-toxic nodules, which has been widely accepted.

Comparison of the effect of vitamin D on osteoporosis and osteoporotic patients with healthy individuals referred to the Bone Density Measurement Center.

Objective Osteoporosis is the most common metabolic disease of the bones. Osteoporosis reduces bone density, predisposes a person to fractures, and imposes high costs on societies. Osteoporosis develops from a variety of causes, one of the most significant is vitamin D deficiency.
