In this paper, a method based on convolutional neural networks for segmenting neonatal brain images is presented. One of the major challenges in neonatal brain image segmentation is the intensity distribution overlapping between gray matter and white matter tissues, which reduces the segmentation accuracy of these areas. To increase the intensity differentiation between brain tissues, this paper presents a pre-processing method based on convolutional neural networks that effectively increases the segmentation accuracy. To obtain the final segmentation result, another convolutional neural network is proposed which performs segmentation based on T1-T2 images. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, two databases are used, which include magnetic resonance imaging of infants' brains. The results show the appropriate efficiency of the proposed method in segmenting brain tissues. Manuscript profile

Medical and biological imaging technologies provide valuable image information of the structure and function of an organ from the level of molecules to the whole body. The brain is the most complex organ in the body and is attracting increasing research attention with the rapid development of medical and biological imaging technologies. One of the most common brain diseases is the creation of abnormal tissue in brain cells, which leads to the formation of brain tumors. Since brain tumors are associated with a significant risk of death and the accurate and rapid prediction of this disease has a direct impact on the treatment process, therefore, in this research, a large number of brain tumor MRI imaging data was used to identify brain cancers and find a method. Deep learning techniques were used. Several deep learning models were used for automatic diagnosis, and the classification of three types of brain tumors, consisting of glioma, meningioma, and pituitary, was also done with these algorithms. Based on the results of the conducted tests, the best accuracy of the results obtained in this research was 96%, which was obtained by considering the ratio of 60% for training data and 40% for test data.

The Islamic Republic of Iran is one of the countries that has continuously faced the problem of migration. Although the issue of immigration has plagued the country since the beginning of the Islamic Revolution, it has gained new and more serious dimensions in recent years. The withdrawal of the United States from the JCPOA and the return of sanctions against Iran caused the fear of losing the peace of life in the economic sector and increased dissatisfaction and criticism of the government, which caused a new wave of migration from inside to outside. Based on this, the main issue in this thesis is to investigate the immigration situation during the years after the revolution and the factors affecting its aggravation. The findings of the research show that the unilateral withdrawal of the United States from the JCPOA and the increase in sanctions have caused an increase in migration to other places. In recent years, statistics indicate that Iran has entered a new wave of immigration, which has been intensified by sanctions. Manuscript profile

International migration has become widespread in last two decades and it is also very important for Iran. This research tries to evaluate Iranian government’s policy toward sustainable return of elites. This ethnographic research conducted through 54 semi structured interviews as well as participant observation and expert interview with relevant organizations. Research theoretical considerations consist of social capital theory, network theory and reintegration approach. It seems that supports which have been launched by Iranian government concentrates on financial dimensions of reintegration. While sustainable return has social and cultural obligations. It seems that the government's support facilities are focused on micro level, and institution building and networking are given less attention. On the other hand, the main focus of policymaking is to return to economic support, and its social, cultural and psychological aspects are given less attention. Manuscript profile

One of the most well known anti-cancer drug is Doxorubicin. However, green tea has manyantioxidant properties. In this study, the long-term effects of green tea on bone marrow lesionscaused by Doxorubicin in rats were studied. 30 adult male Wistar rats were randomly dividedinto 6 groups. Control, LGT (long-term use of 3% green tea extract for 60 days), SHGT (shorttermuse of 3% green tea extract for 10 days), LGT + DXR (long-term use of 3% green teaextract for 60 days with injections IP doxorubicin for 3 days), SHGT + DXR (short-term use of3% green tea extract for 10 days in combination with doxorubicin (IP) injection for 3 days),DXR (doxorubicin injection for 3 days). 24 hours after the last injection of DXR, rats euthanizedand tissue samples were taken for histopathology of the femur. The enzymes catalase andsuperoxide dismutase (SOD) were measured. The histopathology results show that the DXRinduced severe bone marrow suppression that myeloid cells was more involved. SHGT + DXRgroup was similar to DXR, but the cell density was similar to control group. The LGT + DXRcell density was very similar to the control group. There was a small amount of myeloid celldestruction. Measurement of catalase and SOD indicates a significant difference betweentreatment and control groups. Results show that Doxorubicin may cause damage in rat bonemarrow, but long-term use of green tea can reduce the damage caused by doxorubicin. Manuscript profile

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common malignant tumor of the central nervous system. GBM with primitive neuronal component (GBM-PNC) is an aggressive variant identified in 0.5% of GBMs and recognized as a distinct histological pattern of glioblastoma Extracranial metastasis from GBM-PNC is a rare and challenging situation. In this study we report the morphological and immunohistochemical features of a case of glioblastoma with primitive neuronal component diagnosed in a 7-year-old male eastern fox snake (Pantherophis gloydi), along with a comprehensive literature review related to the occurrence of malignant tumors in reptiles. Symptoms included a prominent mass on the head, and involvement of the central nervous system. Diagnostic measures including hematological and serological examinations, RT-PCR, Nested-PCR, MRI and CT-SCAN were performed. And after death, Necropsy and pathology and immunohistochemistry study were performed. Based on clinical data, glioblastoma multiforme with primary neurological components was confirmed. The present case highlights the occurrence and severity of extensive axial skeletal metastases from GBM-PNC. Since there is no treatment protocol established for GBM-PNC and GBM-PNC has recently been shown to have more PNC clinical behavior with increased risk of CSF spread, so understanding the clinical, diagnostic and histopathological features of this tumor and determining similarities and Behavioral differences of this tumor in different species can be a big step towards understanding its nature and how to deal with it.

Introduction: Oils extracted from nuts by the cold press might be regarded as valuable oils due to their high yield, unique flavors characteristics. Due to the role of nuts in Iranian society regarding its high consumption, this preliminary study concerned with the fatty acid and sterol compositions of the oils extracted from the related nuts by cold press have been carried out. Materials and Methods: To define the chemical compositions of nut oils, four nuts consisting of pistachio, walnut, hazelnut and almond were collected from Kerman, Tuyserkan, Qazvin and Azarshahr areas respectively and the oils were extracted at 25°C using the cold press methods. Fatty acid and sterol compositions were determined using a gas chromatography equipped with a capillary column and Flame Ionisation Detector according to the defined methods of standard. Results: The results showed that oleic acid was predominant fatty acid in hazelnut (83.3%), almond (67.6%) and pistachio (63.3%) oils while the linoleic acid had the highest concentration in walnut oil (52.5%). The analysis of the sterol fractions of the nonsaponifiable matters of the extracted oils indicated that the apparent β-sitosterol was the predominant sterol and covered 85-91% of the total sterol fractions in all the oils examined. Conclusion: The results showed that the oils extracted from nuts have desirable quantities of oleic and linoleic acids. The results also indicated the absence of trans acids. Due to the presence of high concentrations of oleic acid in hazelnut, almond and pistachio, these oils have a good stability against oxidation chain reactions. Manuscript profile

In order to transplant organs from one human to another, in addition to diagnosing the obvious occurrence of brain death, the patient's will in this regard or in the absence of the patient's will, the consent of the deceased is required. Therefore, if the last two conditions are not met and despite the diagnosis of brain death and even the cessation of saving human life on organ transplantation, this is not legally possible, while some jurists have determined the task in such circumstances and believe in In case of stopping the salvation of a Muslim human life on organ transplantation and in case of no will, without the need to obtain the consent of the deceased, removal of the organ from the dead Muslim body and transplantation to the patient will be permissible and even obligatory.The study of the legitimacy of organ transplantation from the human body from a jurisprudential and legal perspective is the main focus of this research. Given the importance of issues related to organ harvesting and transplantation, it can be said that the most important purpose of research and study of their jurisprudential and legal foundations is to smooth a positive and acceptable approach to scientific and medical achievements in this field, resulting in the adoption of comprehensive laws. It will lead to more accuracy in the freedom of trade and association of members.

Organ donation and organ transplantation can be counted among the benefits that have been considered as an accepted and desirable practice with the help of some jurists and authorities. According to some jurists, self-retribution can be carried out using methods that cause the least amount of suffering to the offender. According to some jurisprudential and legal arguments and inferences, the issue of organ donation has been approved and many people donate their organs to the needy every year. Therefore, the issue of donation and of course retribution through donation, which takes place with the consent of a person, should not be equated with mutilation. The issue of donating the body parts of people who are so-called brain dead and there is no connection between their brain and their organs due to neurological disorder, to the needy patients; Organ transplantation has become a common practice. But this is not enough to meet all the needs of the members. On the other hand, people who are not qualified to live in the community due to social misdeeds and are about to be executed, they must experience a hard death without compensation.

The aim of the present study was to compare the brain- behavior systems, psychological hardiness and ambiguity tolerance in substance abusers and normal people. The study was a causal comparative research. Statistical population included all drug users in 2011 (1391s.c.) in the city of Urmia. 50 people were selected through cluster sampling from five drug rehabilitation centers in Urmia and 50 normal participants were matched with them. Data were collected with the Gray-Wilson Personality Questionnaire (GWPQ, 1989), Kubasa Personal Perspectives Survey Questionnaire (1970), and the Scale of Ambiguity Tolerance (Lin, 1993). Data were analyzed through multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). Analysis of data showed that there were significant differences in brain behavioral systems, hardiness and ambiguity tolerance between substance abusers and normal group (P < 0.001). Substance abusers, scores in the behavioral inhibition system subscale, hardiness and ambiguity tolerance, were lower than the normal group but their scores in behavioral approach system were higher than the normal group. Results indicated that some personality traits such as brain-behavior systems, hardiness and ambiguity tolerance may have an important role in tendency to substance abuse. Manuscript profile

The aim of this study was to predict the tendency to high-risk behaviors based on brain-behavioral system and personality traits with the mediating role of parenting in Secondary school students in Qom province. The presented research is of correlational type and the statistical population includes all students under 18 years of high school in Region 4 of Qom province in the academic year of 1998-99. (2011) complemented the behavioral brain system (Carver and White, 1994), parenting styles (Bamrind, 1972), and Hexago personality traits (Ashnon and Lee, 2000). Based on the results of this study, the proposed model of optimal fit was allowed. In general, the court results of all direct routes were significant (P <0.01). The indirect path of parenting styles was also significant for high-risk behaviors through personality traits and brain-behavioral systems. The seismic model uses optimal well-being and is an important step in identifying the factors influencing high-risk behaviors; You may be able to use it as a role model for developing risk-reducing behavior programs.

The purpose of this study was the comparison of intellectual preferences among female students of the second, third and fourth grades of mathematics’ sciences at Mashhad secondary schools. In this descriptive-survey research, the population was consisted of the total of female students of the high schools of Mashhad in the second, third and forth grades of mathematics field in 2010-2011. The sample was included 133 high school students ( 39 students at the second grade, 50 students at the third grade and 42 students at the fourth grade) who studied mathematics. They were chosen by using cluster sampling method from different regions of Mashhad. The short form of Ned Hermann questionnaire was used. Statistical analysis was done by descriptive and inferential statistic. The collected data was analyzed through ANOVA, Mono-vamethodes and Tukey follow-up test. The results indicated that the mean score of D-quadrant was decreased significantly (F = 3.17, p < 0.045) and D-quadrant brain dominance was decreased significantly (p < 0.05) from the second grade to the fourth grade. The findings of the present research showed that the current process in the field of mathematics education did not provide the development of students' brain ability. Therefore, evaluating of the curriculum and teacher's method of teaching in this field by competent authorities seems to be necessary. Manuscript profile

Inroduction & Objective:Ischemic brain damage has disabled a large number of patients, in some cases with death and in other cases with different forms of permanent disabilities. Ischemic edema is one of the most important stroke complications. The purpose of this study is assessing the effects of heracleum persicum extract on the blood - brain barriers permeability and evaluating the caused reductions in brain edemas.Methodsand materialIn this experimental study, 7 male Wistar rat were under investigation. First and second groups (control mice and sham mice) were distilling water, while the other three groups were consuming heracleum persicum extract with doses of 30, 50, 100 mg/kg for per kilogram of their body weight, and this feeding procedure was orally by using gavage for 30 days. Two hours after taking the last dose; each major group had been divided to (Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion) MCAO subgroups, in order to measure the permeability of the blood - brain permeability and also measuring the level of cerebral edema.ResultsPretreatment with heracleum persicum extracts reduced brain edema in groups which had received 50 and 100 mg/kgof the extract for per kilogram of their body weight. Rats pretreatment with heracleum persicum extract also reduced the permeability of blood - brain barriers after MCAO.ConclusionThis study suggests that heracleum persicum extract may reduce brain edema and also may reduce the permeability of the blood-brain barriers in cerebral ischemia - reperfusion in model rats and would cause neurological protection; but more work is needed to extend these observations.

Inroduction and ObjectiveAcute liver failure (ALF) is a severe liver injury accompanied by sustained liver damage. It is imperative that new approaches for repairing the liver are developed. Cell-based therapy has been implicated in the treatment of liver diseases. Mesenchymal stemcells (MSCs) from various sources such as bone marrow are available. These cells are one of them ajorcandidates incell therapy.The production of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) increases in the regenerating liver. The IGF-I in liver regeneration is effective after binding to insulin-like growth factor-I receptor (IGF-IR).We hypothesized that tumor necrosis factor-αstimulate MSCs to cause IGF-IRexpression.Materials and Methods:Bone marrow was aspirated fromhuman normal donor after informing consent. Cells were isolated and cultured. Identification of cells with flow cytometric analysis was performed. Fourth passage cells were treated with tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)at 1 ng/mL doseand incubated at different times (2, 10, 24 and 48 hours).The IGF-IRgene expression was investigatedusing real time-polymerase chain reaction technique.Results: Flow cytometric analysis showed that the human bone marrow MSCs were positive for CD90 and negative for CD45 and CD80.The IGF-IRgene expression was increased in TNF-α treated in comparison with untreated cells.Conclusion:Increase gene expression pattern of IGF-IR in human bone marrow derived MSCs may be used for clinical stem cell therapy in ALF.

Inroduction and ObjectiveRecent studies suggest that Normobaric Hyperoxia (HO) decreases hypoxia-reoxygenation injury, increases expression of Na/Ca2+ Exchanger1 (NCX1) in brain. We wanted to determine the relationship between HO effects on NCX1 and infarct volume (IV) in rat stroke model. Materials and Methods:Rats were divided into two experimental groups. The first group was exposed to 95% inspired HO for 4 hours/day for 6 consecutive days (HO). The second group acted as control and was exposed to 21% oxygen in the same chamber. Each main group was sub-divided to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO-operated) and intact (without any surgery) sub-groups. After 2, 5, 10 and 15 days from pre-treatment, MCAO-operated sub-groups were subjected to 60 minutes of right MCAO. After 24 hours reperfusion, infarct volume was measured in MCAO-operated sub-groups. The NCX1 expression levels of core, penumbra and sub-cortex regions were assessed in sham-operated and intact sub-groups.ResultsPre-conditioning with HO decreased infarct volume, and increased expression of NCX1 in penumbra and sub-cortex. These effects of hyperoxia disappeared gradually during 15 days after pre-treatment.Conclusion: Although further studies are needed to clarify the mechanisms of time course of neuroprotection, HO partly is associated with expression of NCX1 consistent with an active role in the genesis of ischaemic neuroprotection.

Inroduction & Objective: Stem cell therapy has introduced a new approach to repair and regeneration of organs and tissues. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are promising candidates for cell therapy. Although bone marrow-derived MSCs are able to differentiate into several cell lines, bone marrow is not an appropriate cell source due to the problem of cell division and low efficiency. The aim of this study was to compare the healing potential of human MSCs obtained from three sources including Bone marrow (BM-MSCs) and adipose tissue (AT-MSCs) and fetal membrane decidua (DSCs) tissue in vitro.  Material and Methods: MSCs were isolated from the human Bone marrow, Adipose tissue and decidua stromal cell , cultured for 10 passages, and assessed for: phenotype with immunofluorescence and flow cytometry, multipotency with differentiation capacity for osteo-, chondro-, and adipogenesis, growth evaluation with population doubling time and population doubling level was performed. Results: Despite of similarities in terms of surface antigen expression and self-renewal capacity, MSCs of different sources demonstrated significant differences with regards to proliferation and multi-lineage differentiation capacities. DSCs showed the highest cell proliferation capacity and appeared to preserve it up to the tenth passage whereas BM-MSCs possessed significant advantage for osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation and AT-MSCs showed the most potent adipogenic differentiation capacity among the others. Although demonstrating significant advantage for cell proliferation capacity, DSCs possessed the lowest osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipogenic differentiation capacities. Conclusion: Because AT-MSCs and DSCs as effectively as BM-MSCs, AT-MSCs and DSCs may constitute an alternative source for BM-MSCs. Manuscript profile

Background and Aim: Oxidative stress is strongly involved in functional and neurological dysfunction induced by ischemia-reperfusion (IR). Therefore, approaches for using antioxidants to reverse IR-induced damage are being reviewed. Shallot is a plant with well-proven antioxidant properties; but its neuroprotective potential against cerebral ischemia has not been studied. Therefore, the present study was designed to evaluate the influence of shallot onion powder against IR-induced oxidative stress.Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 4 groups of 7 male Wistar rats were used, which included: sham, stroke, and stroke treated with shallot onion powder and group treated with shallot onion powder. After 8 weeks of oral treatment, rats were exposed to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) for one hour. After 22 hours of reperfusion, brain activity levels of catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and malondialdehyde (MDA) were assessed.Results: Pretreatment with shallot onion powder led to a substantial increase in the levels of CAT (P<0/001), GPX (P<0/05), SOD (P<0/01); and there was a significant reduction in MDA level (P<0/01) in shallot onion powder + MCAO groups compared to MCAO groups.Conclusion: Oral consumption of shallots significantly decreases focal ischemic brain damage/reperfusion. The defense mechanism against cerebral ischemia is linked with increased activity of antioxidants associated with lesion pathogenesis. Manuscript profile

The aim of the present study is to determine the effect of 12 weeks of bodyweight training on neurotrophic factors in children with hypotonic cerebral palsy. 20 children with hypotonic cerebral palsy with an average age of 8 to 12 years were selected and placed in two groups of body weight training (n=10) and control group (n=10). Subjects of the Bodyweight group performed exercises that included basic strength, maximum strength and high-intensity interval training for 12 weeks and three sessions a week. The training intensity was 25% 1RM in the first to third week, 50% in the fourth to sixth week, 75% in the seventh to ninth week, and 100% in the tenth to twelfth week. Blood samples were taken 24 hours before and 24 hours after the last training session. To analyze the data, independent t-tests were used to survey the inter-group difference and correlated t-test to survey the intra-group difference at a significant level (P<0.05). The results of data analysis showed a significant increase in the levels of neurotrophin factors (BDNF, NGF, IGF-1) in the body weight training group. Due to their structure, Bodyweight exercises can be easily used by children with hypotonic cerebral palsy. It seems that these exercises improve the skeletal muscle tissue in these children by increasing the levels of neurotrophic factors, and by slowing down the atrophy process and reducing the muscle tissue, it improves their movement and posture disorders and balance problems. .

One of the most important and complex inner human senses is common sense. The common sense perceives information such as image, taste, sound and the like in objects through the five senses and combines this information with each other. The definition of this feeling in Islamic philosophy and neuroscience is a common definition. However, neuroscience refers to this sense as convergence zones. The specialization of convergence areas is that it establishes a link between the information obtained through the five senses about an object. Therefore, although there is a different name for combining the information of the senses in neuroscience and Islamic philosophy, but its definition and function are common. Of course, the direction of sharing is not limited to a mere definition, because the arguments of Islamic philosophers to prove the existence of common sense are still valid and neuroscience also confirms it despite the progress made in these sciences.Also, from the point of view of Islamic philosophy, the explanations of neuroscience about the areas of convergence are acceptable, but according to this philosophy, the findings of neuroscience only explain the material dimension of common sense perceptions. Because according to this philosophy, perception is not only a material phenomenon, but also an immaterial matter. Therefore, from the point of view of Islamic philosophy, especially Mullah Sadra's philosophy, although these explanations are acceptable, but perception happens after these stages, by the soul.

the present study aimed to investigate the effect of 8 and 12 weeks of aerobic training on plasma BDNF levels of tau phosphorylated protein in elderly women with reduced cognitive function. For this propose 24 old women, 60 to 70 years old randomly selected and divided into experimental (n=12) or control (n=12) groups. The experimental group performed step aerobics training with an intensity of 60 to 70% of heart rate reserve, 3 sessions per week for 12 weeks. Plasma BDNF and tau phosphorylated protein level was measured with an ELISA kit. There was no significant difference between the levels of tau phosphorylated protein in the experimental and control group in different stages (p <0.05); Also, the results of repeated measures analysis of variance showed that despite the decrease in the level of tau phosphorylated protein, but there was no significant difference between the levels of this index in different stages of the study (p = 0.182). The plasma BDNF level of elderly women in the post-test stage (12 weeks) in the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group (p = 0.018). Also, plasma BDNF levels after 8 and 12 weeks in the experimental group were significantly higher than the pretest (P values were 0.021 and 0.004, respectively).These results suggest that the possible positive effects of exercise in the elderly with reduced cognitive function are not due to a decrease in the phosphorylated Tau protein and that neurogenic pathways are activated in this way.

AbstractBackground and Objective: A valuable approach to increasing health and reducing brain damage is to use exercise and physical training as a pre-preparation that leads to some molecular cellular changes and improved behavioral functions.Materials and Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, animals were randomly divided into three equal groups of 01, including endurance training, stroke and control. The training protocol in the endurance group included swimming in water for three weeks and five days a week for 01 minutes every day at a water temperature of 03 ± 3 ° C. Rats in the control group and the stroke group spent three weeks without any training. To create the ischemia model, the common carotid artery (CCA) was blocked for 01 minutes with aneurysm clamps. 32hours after ischemia, TrkB enzyme levels were assessed using Real Time Pcr and behavioral functions.Results: There was a significant difference in the TrkB variable between the endurance group and the stroke and control groups in favor of the endurance group (P = 10110). Also, a significant difference was found between the stroke group and the control group (P = 10110).In relation to neurological disorder, a significant difference was observed between the endurance group and the two groups of stroke and control (P = 10110).Conclusion: Aerobic exercise can produce positive neuroprotective effects in relation to neurogenesis by altering TrkB gene expression, which can also be seen in behavioral functions.

Introduction: Angiogenesis improvement treatments are effective in reduction of stroke induced organ injury. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of an endurance training with and without adenosine consumption on some angiogenic genes expression in hippocampus of male Wistar rats after ischemia reperfusion injury.Methods: After induction of ischemia reperfusion injury, rats were divided into three groups of ischemia (group1), ischemia with exercise (group2) and ischemia with exercise and adenosine (group3). Exercise groups performed endurance trainings on treadmill for 8 weeks (5 sessions per week) with intensity of 30m per minute. Adenosine dosage in group3 was 0/4 mg per kg. Hippocampus of the rats were isolated for gene expression analysis after trainings.Results: There was difference between groups 1&3 and 2&3 in HIF1α gene expression (P=0/000); in case of HIF2α, all groups were different (P=0/000); R4 gene expression was different between groups 1&2 and 1&3 (P=0/004); S2 gene expression was different in all groups (P=0/000); HMGB1 gene expression was different between groups 1&2 (P=0/011), 1&3 (P=0/000) and 2&3 (P=0/000) and significant difference was observed in all groups in AP1 gene expression (P=0/000). Conclusion: After ischemia reperfusion injury, eight weeks' endurance training may be effective in improvement of angiogenesis through elevation of HIF1α, HIF2α, S2, R4, HMGB1 and AP1 genes expression and this effect is reinforced by adenosine treatment.

The purpose of the present study was to isolate, culture expand and characterize canine bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells. Bone marrow aspirates of 15 adult male dogs were collected to this end and their mononuclear cells isolated by centrifugation and cultured in standard media. The adherent cells were isolated and their mesenchymal origin was confirmed at 3rd passage by cellular morphology, expression of surface antigens and differentiation to osteogenic and adipogenic lineage. After 4 days, spindle shaped fibroblast like cells which were apparently bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells appeared in culture medium and their numbers increased over time. The cells reached 3rd passage with over 75% confluent after a mean of 22.89±5.75 days. Flow cytometric analysis revealed that the cells negatively expressed CD34 and CD45 antigens while positively expressing CD44 and CD105 antigens. Differentiation into osteogenic and adipogenic lineage had taken place after one month culture in induction medium. VDR, COL1A1, BGLAP and SPARC gene expression indicated that mesenchymal stem cells isolated from canine bone marrow had differentiated into osteogenic lineage. These findings can form the basis of any forthcoming clinical studies involving the use of canine mesenchymal stem cells particularly in the field of bone and cartilage regeneration.

The purpose of this paper's prediction of survival or death within 30 days is based on a cerebral hemorrhage. Timely and correct diagnosis and treatment of cerebral hemorrhage are essential. If the patient's death is predicted during these thirty days, the treating physician should use intensive care and more treatment for the patient. Cerebral hemorrhages require immediate treatment and rapid and accurate diagnosis. In this article, using the volume of cerebral hemorrhage and the patient's age and using the neural network of support vector machine (SVM), it is predicted what percentage of people with cerebral hemorrhage survive and what percentage die. Parameters of cerebral hemorrhage volume and, age of patients, neural network input are considered. The network's output is the survival or death of patients with cerebral hemorrhage over the next thirty days. The data we used included the bleeding volume and age of 66 patients with lobar hemorrhage, 76 patients with deep bleeding, nine patients with Pontine hemorrhage and 11 patients with cerebellar hemorrhage. All bleeding models are considered as input to the support vector machine neural network. The overall accuracy of the designed support vector machine neural network is 93%. Regardless of the type of cerebral hemorrhage, the survival or death of people with cerebral hemorrhage within 30 days is predicted. Manuscript profile

Deep learning algorithms achieves some results at human level or even better in pattern recognition problems. Meanwhile they apply a different mechanism other than human brain. This paper describes a human-inspired segmentation and interpolation algorithm, which applies the retinal layer in the proposed model after the input layer. Following this retina, this layer encrypts the input image and transmits the input image to the second space, which try to change deep network structure inspired of the brain's visual path. Network feedback, recognition rate, and network energy level or the comprehensiveness of the trained network examined in subsets of the Caltech data set. In similar examples, deep learning algorithms require more data to learn other than human. In the difference between deep learning and human, there is a difference in the representation of information. In deep learning, weights improve in a way that optimizes the result in a particular experiment, but in millions of years of human evolution, the human brain has evolved optimally and effectively representation. Another point of contention is the deepening of deep learning layers. The number of these layers has multiplied compared to the brain that lead to more complexity and energy expenditure. However, in the brain it can make a diagnosis with less energy. The maximum recognition rate of the proposed model is 93% and the base model is close to 91%. Also, the proposed model is thinner and the rate of fire of neurons in the initial layers is lower and has a high stability to changes in light intensity. The Dissimilarity of the model layers has been higher and it has been able to show a better response in the face of noise images and record less recognition loss. Manuscript profile

Alzheimer’s disease is one of the most common diseases in the 21st century. Alzheimer's patients lose their brain cells gradually and eventually die. It is often diagnosed when the symptoms appear and little work can be done for the patient. Using of learning algorithms is useful for diagnosing of Alzheimer. Previous studies used Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbor, and Linear Discriminant Analysis in order to diagnose the disease. These methods have some problems such as low accuracy, high computation complexity or high execute time. Therefore in this research, a method based on brain emotional learning and wavelet feature is used. First, the white and gray matters of the brain were separated by a threshold selection method. Second, the texture properties of the images were extracted by wavelet transform algorithm. Third, the dimensional reduction is done on the properties extracted by principal component analysis. Finally, the features were classified using Brain Emotional Learning Algorithm and Brain Emotional Learning Based Pattern Recognizer. Results showed that run time of brain emotional learning algorithm is 0.22 second and Brain Emotional Learning algorithm with 95% accuracy and Brain Emotional Learning Based Pattern Recognizer with 97% accuracy are better than Support Vector Machine with 83% accuracy.

In this paper, the method of predicting the treatability of patients suffering from hyperactivity with neurofeedback training with the help of extracting the frequency band of the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal and using the brain-functional communication evaluation criterion is done to determine the person's treatability before starting the neurofeedback treatment. This algorithm consists of six steps: In the first step, a data set of EEG signal recording during neurofeedback stimulation from 60 students in the age group of 7 to 14 years (regardless of gender) with hyperactivity in two treatable and non-treatable classes was obtained from the Mendelian database. In the second step, primary filtering has been done to reduce the noise of the data set using a pre-processing block. In the third step, the frequency distribution of the alpha and beta bands is extracted from the noise reduction signals. In this type of data, the difference in the EEG components of each group can be expressed by measuring brain-functional communication and using the phase lock index (PLI), which is used to detect the existence of a connection between the brain lobes involved once using the probability value index. In the t-test statistical test and to increase the accuracy, the genetic algorithm was used to identify the effective electrodes in the treatment. So, the fourth step is to extract the feature, which is to measure the amount of brain communication in the brain signal recording electrodes. In the fifth step, it is to reduce the feature space, the results show show that the lobes involved during neurofeedback stimulation are the frontal and central lobes, and among the 32 EEG recording channels, only the data of 6 channels C3, FZ, F4, CZ, C4, and F3 show a significant difference in the amount of brain communication during stimulation. and finally, in the sixth step, by using different classifications, the output of the combination of classifications was the label of one of two classes, treatable or non-treatable. In this proposed method, the correctness criterion is used to express the research result, and finally the percentage of correctness obtained is 90.6%. Manuscript profile

Seizure detection using brain signal (EEG) analysis is the important clinical methods in drug therapy and the decisions before brain surgery. In this paper, after signal conditioning using suitable filtering, the Gamma frequency band has been extracted and the other brain rhythms, ambient noises and the other bio-signal are canceled. Then, the wavelet transform of brain signal and the map of wavelet transform in multi levels are computed. By dividing the color map to different epochs, the histogram of each sub-image is obtained and the statistics of it based on statistical momentums and Negentropy values are calculated. Statistical feature vector using Principle Component Analysis (PCA) is reduced to one dimension. By EMD algorithm and sifting procedure for analyzing the data by Intrinsic Mode Function (IMF) and computing the residues of brain signal using spectrum of Hilbert transform and Hilbert – Huang spectrum forming, one spatial feature based on the Euclidian distance for signal classification is obtained. By K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) classifier and by considering the optimal neighbor parameter, EEG signals are classified in two classes, seizure and non-seizure signal, with the rate of accuracy 76.54% and with variance of error 0.3685 in the different tests.           Manuscript profile

The present study aimed to examine the mediating role of Social Anxiety (SA) in the relationship between brain-behavioral systems and loneliness with correlation design. 479 students of Islamic Azad University in Tehran (293 females, 186 males) were selected by multistage sampling and completed the Iranian Loneliness Questionnaire (Rahimzadeh, 2011), Behavioral Inhibition/Behavioral Activation System Scales (Carver & White, 1994), and Social Phobia Inventory (Connor et al., 2000). The results of the path analysis test showed the direct effect of Behavioral Inhibition System (BIS) and Fight-Flight-Freeze System (FFFS) as positive and direct effects of Behavioral Activation System (BAS) as negative on SA, the direct effect of SA and the FFFS as positive, and direct effect of BAS is negatively significant on loneliness, but the direct effect of the BIS on loneliness is not significant. Also, the indirect effect of the BIS and the FFFS was positively significant and the indirect effect of the BAS was negatively significant on loneliness with mediating SA. In addition, the results revealed that SA plays a mediating role in the relationship between brain-behavioral systems and loneliness, and 21% of the variance of SA is explained by brain-behavioral systems, and 27% of the variance of loneliness is explained by brain-behavioral systems and SA. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that by reducing SA in people who are more sensitive to the BIS, the experience of loneliness is reduced. Manuscript profile

This study has been conducted to determine the mediating role of social anxiety in the relationship between behavioral brain systems and Internet addiction. For this purpose, in descriptive research, 346 students (129 males and 217 females) were selected by convenience sampling of students of the non-profit Shahid Ashrafi University of Isfahan. The participants were requested to fill out Gary-Wilson (1989) Personality Questionnaire, Social Anxiety Inventory (Connor et al., 2000), and Internet Addic- tion Test (Young, 1998). Data were analyzed using path analysis. The findings showed that the direct and indirect effect of behavioral activation system on internet addiction is negative and the direct and indirect effect of behavioral inhibition and fight-flight systems on internet addiction is positive. Likewise, the direct effect of behavioral activation system on social anxiety is negative and the direct effect of behavioral inhibition and fight-flight systems on social anxiety is positive. Also, the direct effect of social anxiety on internet addiction is also positive. In addition, the amount of explained variance (R2) is 0.48, which means that behavioral brain systems and social anxiety have the ability to explain 48% of the variance of Internet addiction. Therefore, in order to prevent Internet addiction, in addition to paying attention to behavioral brain systems, it is necessary to provide the necessary grounds to reduce social anxiety.

Plenty of studies are available on proving lack of distortion in Qoran. However, one of the subjects neglected so far by philosophers of religion is the issue that the last residence of religious revelation from God is the prophet’s PBUT brain and its biological system. Every prophet needs to rely on the use of brain system and its functions and abilities, or ”the linguistic abilities of the brain” for receiving and delivering revelation. Considering the fact that human’s brain consciously or unconsciously makes mistakes, there is a need to deal with the probable mistakes made by the prophets’ PBUT brains in receiving and delivering religious revelations, which could eventually lead to “the distortion of revelation and heavenly books.” In this article “the status of the prophets’ PBUT brains and their brains’ functions and abilities in receiving and delivering the revelation” are studied.

Due to physico-chemical properties of nanoparticles as drug carriers are widely used in the treatment of cancerous cells in living environments. The nanoparticles can be used for targeted drug delivery and effective to the site of infection. Iron magnetic nanoparticles have biologically active properties and can enter into the reticuloendothelial system by phagocytosis or endocytosis, or can be trapped by phagocytic cells such as monocytes, macrophages and oligodendrocytes. The nanoparticles can hurt cells by increasing oxidative stress. P53 is a tumor suppressor protein and it is disabled or impaired function in most human cancers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of iron oxide nanoparticles on the expression of P53 protein in the brain tissue of mice Balb/C. For this purpose, 15 male mice were divided into three groups (five in each group). The treatment groups 1 and 2 during 8 days, received doses of 100 and 300 ppm magnetic nanoparticles of iron daily by intraperitoneal injection. At the end of eight days, the animals dissected and their brains were removed and were undergone immunostaining with Avedin. The results showed that iron oxide nanoparticles penetrate into brain tissue and causing inflammatory response and cause increasing in P53 protein. It seems that high concentrations of iron oxide nanoparticles have a significant effect on the expression of P53 protein. Manuscript profile

Cerebral ischemia is a condition not reaching all or part of the brain, blood, and therefore oxygen. According to the property oleuropein antioxidant, the current study was performed aiming at using this substance to affect anxiety and improve memory in ischemic animals. In this study, 50 Wistar rats in the weight range of 200 to 250 g were randomly assigned to 5 groups including: control group; the ischemia group was divided by occlusion of both common carotid arteries and the three ischemia groups that received oleuropein at doses (10, 50, and 100 mg/kg) by gavage for 14 days. To cause ischemia, bilateral carotid arteries were isolated, blocked in two, and severed in the middle. Memory assessment was performed using the passive avoidance learning test (shuttle box) and the elevated plus maze device was used to assess anxiety. Data were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and LSD support. Ischemia decreased memory (p <0.001). Anxiety was reduced (p <0.001) and administration of doses of 10, 50, 100 mg/kg oleuropein, especially 100 mg/kg, led to improvement in memory deficits (p <0.001) and anxiety (p <0.001). Based on the results of this study, it seems that oleuropein reduces the severity of cognitive and behavioral disorders caused by hypoperfusion ischemia due to its antioxidant properties and inhibition of free radicals.

Today, the excessive use of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) has led to concerns about the potential environmental hazards caused by the presence of these particles in aquatic ecosystems. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the toxic effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles (0.02, 0.05 and 0.1 mg/L) on the oxidative stress enzymes in brain tissue of roach during a period of 7 days. After homogenization of the brain tissue, the activity of oxidative stress enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione-S transferase (GST), catalase (CAT), glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) was determined using biochemical methods. The SOD, CAT and GST activities were significantly increased by exposure to 0.1 mg/ml zinc nanoparticles compared with other concentrations in brain tissue of roach (P<0.05). However, the amount of glutathione decreased with increasing exposure dose. In amount of malondialdehyde dose-dependent manner was observed, since the maximum concentration was recorded at 0.1 mg/ml of nanoparticles (4.5 ± 5.3 nmol/g wet). The subacute toxicity of nanoparticles leads to the induction of free radical and oxidative stress in brain tissue of roach. The increase in the activity of antioxidant enzymes causes antioxidant defense system activation for scavenger in free radicals. Manuscript profile

The issue of elite emigration from our country to the developed countries as a social phenomenon is the result of economic, cultural, social and political factors in Iranian society. This phenomenon had harmful impacts on the economic, political and social growth and development processes. Elite emigration has been neglected over the years. Statistics reports show that by each emigration of an elite person from Iran, $ 5 million of the Iran's capital will be lost. Therefore, it is essential to find the motivations of elite emigration and explore the strategies and practical solutions for the elite emigration. Thus, the aim of this study is to analyze a variety of scenarios and their impacts on the rate of emigration. Due to the complexity of the problem and causal relations, feedbacks and causal loops, system dynamics approach was used in this study. The model performed in Vensim software. Results show that the policy of reducing tension in foreign relations has not a significant impact on the rate of elite emigration. In addition, according to the results of proposed policies, it is recommended to the government and policy makers to respect the meritocracy in the scientific, management job appointments as well as improve the job security and employment status of elites.

Although severe brain injury can make people susceptible to mental disorders, there is still debate about traumatic brain injury. The purpose of this study was to compare the power of artificial neural network in predicting post-traumatic mental disorder in mild brain injury patients and logistic regression. For this purpose, in a prospective cohort study, 100 trauma patients referred to the trauma center of Shahid Beheshti Hospital of Kashan during 6 months were compared with 100 healthy people. For modeling, the data were randomly divided into two educational groups (100) and experimental (100 people). The Rock's curve and classification accuracy were used to estimate the predictive power of mental disorder. The results showed that there is a significant difference between the two groups of mild traumatic patients and healthy subjects in terms of mental disorders, and artificial neural network models have better efficiency than logistic regression models. This study showed that in order to predict mental disorder, the diagnostic indices of this factor should be considered at the beginning of the traumatic brain injury patients and then, using the artificial neural network model, predict this factor. The necessity of using this technology in demographic screening is useful in treating patients with trauma and preventing possible problems for such patients. Manuscript profile

Anxiety disorders are a group of disorders that their common characteristics is fear and excessive anxiety and subsequent behavioral disturbances. Social anxiety disorder and depression have a high comorbidity. Understanding the mechanisms underlying the formation and persistence of these diseases is very important. The aim of this study was to evaluate the structural relationship of brain - behavior and emotion regulation difficulties with social anxiety disorder and depression. For this purpose, in a descriptive study based on regression analysis, 240 patients (120 males and 120 females) from Tabriz University students were selected by cluster sampling method and they were tested in terms of inhibition / behavioral activation systems, emotion regulation difficulties, depression and panic and phobia. For data analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling was used. Model assessment indicated average fitness of the theoretical model. In contrast, the modified model, in which apart from direct relations, indirect relationships had been established between variables, showed a better fit. Based on the findings of the current study and with an emphasis on the mediating role of emotion regulation difficulties we can present theoretical framework to explain the complex comorbidity and the distinction between depression and social anxiety disorder.
