Abstract
Flavonoids, a diverse group of polyphenolic compounds found in various plant-based foods, have garnered attention for their potential in combating Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infection. Flavonoids have demonstrated promising anti-HBV activities by interfering with multiple stages of the HBV life cycle, making them promising candidates for novel antiviral agents. Certain plant families, such as Theaceae, Asteraceae, Lamiaceae, and Gentianaceae, are of particular interest for their flavonoid-rich members with anti-HBV activities. Evidences, both in vitro and in vivo, supports the anti-HBV potential of flavonoids. These subsets of compound exert their anti-HBV effects through various mechanisms, including inhibiting viral entry, disrupting viral replication, modulating transcription factors, enhancing the immune response, and inducing autophagy. The antioxidant properties of flavonoids play a crucial role in modulating oxidative stress associated with HBV infection. Several flavonoids like epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), proanthocyanidin (PAC), hexamethoxyflavone, wogonin, and baicalin have shown significant anti-HBV potential, holding promise as therapeutic agents. Synergistic effects between flavonoids and existing antiviral therapies offer a promising approach to enhance antiviral efficacy and reduce drug resistance. Challenges, including limited bioavailability, translation from preclinical studies to clinical practice, and understanding precise targets, need to be addressed. Future research should focus on clinical trials, combination therapies, and the development of flavonoid derivatives with improved bioavailability, and optimizing their effectiveness in managing chronic HBV infections.

Abstract
Failure to neutralize HBsAg and subsequent escape from the host immune system may be caused by HBsAg mutations, particularly in the "a" determinant, which alters the antigenicity of the protein. The purpose of this study was to examine the frequency of S gene mutations in three generations of HBV cases in northeastern Iran. In this study, 90 patients with chronic HBV were assigned to three groups according to the inclusion criteria. The plasma were utilized to extract viral DNA, and the PCR was applied. Direct sequencing and alignment were performed on the S gene, using reference sequence. The results indicated that all HBV genomes were categorized as the genotype D/ayw2. Among 79 point mutations detected, 36.8% were silent, and 56.2% were missense. In the S region, mutations were observed in 88.9% of CHB subjects studied. In the three-generation group, 21.5% of mutations were in the "a" determinant, and 2.6%, 19.5%, and 87.0% of these mutations were observed in antigenic epitopes of CTLs, CD4+, and B cells, respectively. In addition, 56.7% of mutations occurred at Major Hydrophilic Region. S143L and G145R mutations which the most prevalent in the three-generation (36.7%, 20%), and two-generation (42.5%, 20%) groups, related to the failure of HBsAg detection, vaccine, and immunotherapy escape. The findings showed that most of the mutations were concentrated in the B cell epitope. Most CHB cases from the three-generation, especially grandmothers, had HBV S gene mutations and subsequent amino acid mutations, suggesting that these mutations may be critical for pathogenesis and vaccine evasion.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In humans, approximately 5% of all cancers are attributable to HPV infection. Prophylactic vaccines can inhibit viral migration and persistence. However, further studies are still required to develop such treatments. To achieve this goal, we designed a therapeutic HPV DNA vaccine encoding a construct of E6/E7/L1 and used NSP4 antigen as an adjuvant to assess the efficiency of this construct in generating antigen-specific antitumor immune responses. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty female C57BL/6 mice (6-8 weeks old) were purchased from the Institute Pasteur of Iran. Through a subcutaneous (s.c) injection of a suspension of 100 µl PBS containing 106 TC-1 cells/mouse in the back side, 30 of them became cancerous, while 30 of them were healthy control mice. To amplify E6/E7/L1-pcDNA3 and NSP4-pcDNA3, the competent cells of DH5α and to generate a tumor, TC-1 cell line was used. Mice were then immunized with the HPV DNA vaccine. Cell proliferation was assessed by MTT assay. Finally, cytokine responses (IL-4, IL-12, IFN- γ) were measured in the supernatant of mice spleen cells. RESULT Mice receiving the NSP4/E6-E7-L1 vaccine had the highest stimulatory index compared to other groups, although it was not statistically significant. Interleukin 4/12 and IFN-γ production were significantly higher in E6-E7-L1 / NSP4 group and E6-E7-L1 group compared to other groups (P < 0.05). Among different groups, E6/E7/L1 + NSP4 group was able to slow down the tumor growth process, but it was not significant (p > 0.05). Among the aforementioned cytokines, IFN-γ and IL-12 are among the cytokines that stimulate the Th1 pathway and IL-4 cytokine stimulates the Th2 pathway and B lymphocytes. CONCLUSION Our data revealed that the present vaccine can reduce tumor size, and cytokine measurement showed that it stimulates innate and acquired immune responses, thus it can be a therapeutic vaccine in the tumor-bearing mice model.

Abstract
The presence of polymorphisms in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DQB1 gene, along with its expression, has been demonstrated to be correlated with spontaneous clearance and susceptibility to HBV infection. The present study aimed to evaluate the possible role of genetic polymorphisms in HLA-DQB1 in three generations of patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Based on the inclusion criteria, 90 CHB patients, 18 individuals recovered from HBV infection, and 40 healthy subjects were chosen. The DNA contents of the whole blood samples were extracted in order to perform HLA-DQB1 typing by the PCR technique. Besides whole blood samples, sera were applied to measure liver function tests (LFTs), as well as the titers of anti-HDV and anti-HCV. Also, in all CHB patients were measured liver stiffness (LSM) by Fibro Scan. The results of HLA-DQB1 polymorphisms (rs2856718 and rs7453920) demonstrated that the majority of polymorphisms in CHB patients were HLA-DQB1*03, HLA-DQB1*05, HLA-DQB1*04:01 and HLA-DQB1*03:01 that associated with HBV persistence and chronicity. Among the patients who showed these polymorphisms, the mean±SD, LSM was 4±1.57 KPa and most of them, F grade was reported as F2, which was a sign of disease progression towards chronicity. HLA polymorphisms imputation revealed that HLA-DQB1*06:04 (3.4%, P-Value= 0.2) was detected only in healthy subjects as protective polymorphism, while the allele HLA-DQB1*03:03 was reported in both healthy subjects (P-Value= 0.06) and recovered patients (P-Value= 0.1) as suppressor of CHB formation. The allele HLA-DQB1*05:02 was found in both healthy subjects (3.4%) and CHB patients (4.5%) which was associated with risk to liver cirrhosis (P-Value= 0, OR: 0.002 0.95CI: 0.000-0.15). HLA polymorphism analysis indicated that 17.39% of patients who were seropositive for anti-HCV carried the HLA-DQB1*03:01. HBV resistance or infection risk could be assessed by DBQ1 typing. The existence of polymorphisms in HLA gene could influence the clearance (HLA-DQB1*03:03) or susceptibility and persistence of infection (HLA-DQB1*03, HLA-DQB1*05, HLA-DQB1*04:01 and HLA-DQB1*03:01). These results have the potential to improve personalized therapy and prognosis for HBV infection.

Abstract
Neuroblastoma (NB) is a common cancer in childhood responsible for 15 % of fatalities by pediatric cancers. Epigenetic factors play an important role in the pathogenesis of NB. Recently, it has been demonstrated that circular RNAs (circRNAs, ciRNAs), a newly identified class of non-coding RNAs, are also dysregulated in NB. CircRNAs mediate their functions by regulating gene expression mainly through microRNA (miRNA) sponging. The dysregulation (abnormal upregulation or downregulation) of circRNAs is involved in tumorigenesis of a variety of tumors including NB. It seems that the expression of some circRNAs is correlated with NB prognosis and clinical features. CircRNAs might be favorable as a diagnostic/prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target. However, due to the lack of studies, it is difficult to make a conclusion regarding the clinical benefits of circRNAs. In this review, we discussed the circRNAs that experimentally have been proved to be dysregulated in NB tissues and cancer cells.

Abstract
COVID-19 is a rapidly spreading disease, which has caught the world by surprise. Millions of people suffer from illness, and the mortality rates are dramatically high. Currently, there is no specific and immediate treatment for this disease. Remedies are limited to supportive regiments and few antiviral and anti-inflammatory drugs. The lack of a definite cure for COVID-19 is the reason behind its high mortality and global prevalence. COVID-19 can lead to a critical illness with severe respiratory distress and cytokine release. Increased oxidative stress and excessive production of inflammatory cytokines are vital components of severe COVID-19. Micronutrients, metalloids, and vitamins such as iron, manganese, selenium, Zinc, Copper, vitamin A, B family, and C are among the essential and trace elements that play a pivotal role in human nutrition and health. They participate in metabolic processes that lead to energy production. In addition, they support immune functions and act as antioxidants. Therefore, maintaining an optimal level of micronutrients intake, particularly those with antioxidant activities, is essential to fight against oxidative stress, modulate inflammation, and boost the immune system. Therefore, these factors could play a crucial role in COVID-19 prevention and treatment. In this review, we aimed to summarize antiviral properties of different vitamins and minerals. Moreover, we will investigate the correlation between them and their effects in COVID-19 patients.

Abstract
Recently, many of the studies have illustrated that the new pandemic SARS-CoV-2 can affect Central Nervous System through the olfactory bulb. In addition to investigating anosmia or hyposmia induced by this virus, a quantitative analysis was needed to clarify the taste and smell disorder of the new coronavirus. The four basic taste quality with five concentrations for sweet, sour, bitter, and salty were administered to 75 subjects divided into three groups: COVID-19 patients with taste disorder, COVID-19 patients without taste disorder, and control group. The results indicated the increment of sweet (2.68 ± 0.14), sour (3.34 ± 0.12) and bitter (3.39 ± 0.2) thresholds in COVID-19 patients with taste disorder in comparison with patients without taste disorder that the threshold were: 2 ± 0.16, 2.11 ± 0.2 and 2.55 ± 0.5 for sweet, sour, and bitter respectively. On the other hand, the patients inversely showed a significant decrease in the salty taste threshold (0.51 ± 0.03) compared to COVID-19 positive control groups (1.11 ± 0.11). Additionally, despite taste disorder in almost all of the patients with smell deficiency, only 30% of cases with taste disorder reported smell deficiency. It may be concluded that some of the taste disorders in patients with COVID-19 disorder could be associated with taste receptors dysfunction or the spread of infection to the cranial nerves responsible for the conduction of tastes sensation.

Abstract
Due to the inconsistency of monoacylglycerols’ (MAGs) impacts and the lack of research concerning the weight of saturated monoacylglycerols on the oxidative stability of oils, the current study was designed. For this purpose, saturated MAGs at 0.5, 3.0 and 5.0% were added to canola oil and subsequently exposed to a Schaall oven test at 60 °C for 31 days (to assimilate moderate thermal conditions and a prolonged treatment time) and a Rancimat test at 110 °C (to assimilate extreme thermal conditions and shorter treatment time). To evaluate the quality and oxidative stability parameters of MAG-containing canola oil, free fatty acids (FFA), peroxide value (PV), and the oxidative stability index (OSI) were determined. The findings indicated that with the increase in MAG levels, the FFA increased from 0.05 up to 0.2%. The PV increased from 2 to 100 meq/L with the increase in MAG concentration. Also, it was shown that OSI increased from 12.20 to 13.10 h, which was proportional to MAG concentration.

Abstract
Intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) is the most dreadful complication, and the main cause of death among patients with rare bleeding disorders (RBD) and prenatal diagnosis (PND) is a preventative lifesaving program. A total of 39 PNDs were reported in the literature through a search on PubMed, EMBASE, SCOPUS and Web of Science databases, most often for congenital factor (F) XIII and FVII deficiencies and rarely in FX, FV deficiencies and afibrinogenemia. The main cause to request a PND is ICH and related morbidity and mortality. Different molecular methods including direct sequencing and linkage analysis as well as polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) for a specific mutation are the most common used methods for PND, while factor assay and combination of molecular and factor assay also were used. In this research, 7 severely affected foetuses were identified during PND including 3 foetuses with FXIII deficiency, 3 with FVII deficiency and 1 with FX deficiency. Out of these 7 cases, intrauterine ICH occurred in 1 case with FXIII deficiency, 1 was electively aborted and 1 case with severe FVII deficiency received intrauterine factor transfusion. Postdelivery ICH was reported for 1 patient with severe FVII deficiency within the first month of life. All other pregnancies were uneventful.

Abstract
Essentials Data on surgery in factor XIII (FXIII) deficiency patients are scarce and lack standardized guidelines. Variable dosage of 10-50 U kg-1 was given to FXIII deficiency patients undergoing surgery. Surgical outcomes showed excellent hemostasis with a minimal risk of post-operative complications. Surgery can be performed safely in FXIII deficiency patients following FXIII administration. SUMMARY Background The lack of accepted standardized surgical guidelines leads to dependence on the treating physicians' and centers' experiences. Aim Our aim is to evaluate the surgical outcomes of a large group of congenital factor XIII deficiency (FXIIID) patients. Methods A case series study was conducted prior to surgery on congenital FXIIID patients in two major referral centers located in Iran from 2010 to 2016. All patients were on prophylaxis using plasma factor XIII concentrate (10 U kg-1 , every 28 days) except for three patients. Single doses of 10 U kg-1 or 30 U kg-1 plasma factor XIII concentrate were given before a minor procedure and circumcision, respectively. Two doses of plasma factor XIII concentrate, one 30 U kg-1 prior to the procedure and the second dose of 30 U kg-1 on postoperative day 3, were given for major surgery. The dose was 50 U kg-1 both before and after neurosurgical procedures. Results One hundred and sixty-two FXIIID patients underwent minor, major and obstetrical/gynecological surgeries. Median age of the patients was 14 years (ages ranged 15 days to 47 years). The male-to-female ratio was 89/73. Five postoperative complications, two bleeding and three thrombosis, were recorded. Conclusion Our study showed excellent hemostasis in FXIIID patients undergoing surgeries. During the period of these surgeries, we observed only 1.8% postoperative complications. Surgery can be performed safely in FXIIID patients, and our proposed treatment regimens lead to adequate hemostatic coverage with minimal risk, for both minor and major surgeries.

Abstract
Factor XIII deficiency (FXIIID) is a rare hereditary bleeding disorder arising from heterogeneous mutations, which can lead to life-threatening hemorrhage. The diagnosis of FXIIID is challenging due to normal standard coagulation assays requiring specific FXIII assays for diagnosis, which is especially difficult in developing countries. This report presents an overview of FXIIID diagnosis and laboratory methods and suggests an algorithm to improve diagnostic efficiency and prevent missed or delayed FXIIID diagnosis. Assays measuring FXIII activity: The currently available assays utilized to diagnose FXIIID, including an overview of their complexity, reliability, sensitivity, and specificity, as well as mutational analysis are reviewed. The use of a FXIII inhibitor assay is described. Diagnostic tools in FXIIID: Many laboratories are not equipped with quantitative FXIII activity assays, and if available, limitations in lower activity ranges are important to consider. Clot solubility tests are not standardized, have a low sensitivity, and are therefore not recommended as routine screening test; however, they are the first screening test in almost all coagulation laboratories in developing countries. To minimize the number of patients with undiagnosed FXIIID, test quality should be improved in less well-equipped laboratories. Common country-specific mutations may facilitate diagnosis through targeted genetic analysis in reference laboratories in suspected cases. However, genetic analysis may not be feasible in every country and may miss spontaneous mutations. Centralized FXIII activity measurements should also be considered. An algorithm for diagnosis of FXIIID including different approaches dependent upon laboratory capability is proposed.

Abstract
The enzymes serine hydroxymethyltransferase 1 (SHMT1) regulate key reaction in folate-mediated one-carbon metabolism. In the current study we aimed to examine the possible association between SHMT1 gene polymorphisms and childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in a sample of Iranian population. The rs9901160, rs2273027, rs9909104, rs1979277, and rs11868708 gene polymorphisms of SHMT1 were genotyped in 120 children diagnosed with ALL and 120 healthy children by the polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The results showed that rs9901160, rs2273027 as well as rs1979277 polymorphism significantly increased the risk of childhood ALL (P<0.05). While, rs9909104 polymorphism significantly decreased the ALL risk (P<0.05). The rs11868708 variant was not associated with risk/protection of childhood ALL (P>0.05). In conclusion, our results suggest that the polymorphisms of SHMT1 gene are associated with childhood ALL risk in a sample of Iranian population. Further studies with larger sample sizes and different ethnicities are necessary to verify our findings.

Abstract
Interleukin-18 (IL-18) plays a critical role in immune response, contributing to the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of infectious diseases. Polymorphisms in the IL-18 genes are known to influence expression levels and may be associated with outcome of infections. The objective of this study was to determine whether the presence of IL-18 polymorphisms –607 A/C (rs1946518) was associated with tuberculosis disease. We investigated the functional polymorphism of IL-18 (rs1946518) in 174 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and 177 healthy subjects. Genotype analysis was done using tetra amplification refractory mutation system-PCR (T-ARMS-PCR). The allelic and genotypic frequencies of the IL-18 polymorphism did not differ significantly between PTB and the controls. Our finding suggests that IL-18 polymorphism (rs1946518) may not be a risk factor for susceptibility to tuberculosis in a sample of Iranian population. Further studies are required to validate our findings.

Abstract
Introduction: This study compared the efficacy of Aryoseven with Novoseven to control bleeding episodes in patients with hemophilia A with inhibitors. Methods: Sixty-six patients were randomized into 2 groups, with 4 consecutive block randomization. These groups received Aryoseven and Novoseven dosages of 90 to 120 μg/kg intravenously every 2 hours. Results: Median (interquartile range) level of factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitor in groups A and B was 15.0 and 19.0 Bethesda Unit (BU) preadministration. Bleeding onset in group A was 1246 ± 1104 minutes and in group B was 2301 ± 1693 minutes ( P = .311). The Kavakli global response scores and treatment success rate was comparable in both the groups. The side effects in groups A (9.7%) and B (2.9%) were comparable. Conclusion: Biosimilar recombinant activated FVII is found to be as effective as Novoseven in the treatment of acute joint bleeding in patients with hemophilia with inhibitors. Its usage will decrease the gaps in hemophilia.

Abstract
In order to establish the efficacy and biosimilar nature of AryoSeven to NovoSeven in the treatment of congenital factor VII (FVII) deficiency, patients received either agent at 30 μg/kg, intravenously per week for 4 weeks, in a randomized fashion. The primary aim was to compare FVII:coagulation activity (FVII:C), 20 minutes after recombinant activated FVII (rFVIIa) injection, in the 2 groups. A secondary measure was self-reported bleeding. The median interquartile baseline range of the plasma level of activated FVII (FVIIa) activity in the 2 groups was 1.6 (1.1-14.0) IU/dL and 5.0 (1.1-25.5) IU/dL. All patients achieved levels of FVIIa (FVII:C) >30 IU/dL, 20 minutes after the injection of rFVIIa. Bleeding was similar between the 2 groups, with a comparable decrease in severity and frequency compared to the last month prior to treatment. AryoSeven is similar to NovoSeven in increasing postinjection FVIIa activity as well as in clinical safety and efficacy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the possible association between cathepsin Z (CTSZ) rs34069356 C/T (Ala286Thr) and melanocortin-3 receptor (MC3R) rs6127698 G>T (-484 G/T) gene polymorphisms and pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in an Iranian sample population. DESIGN This case-control study included 150 PTB patients and 177 healthy subjects. Tetra amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction was used to detect polymorphisms. RESULTS Our findings revealed that the MC3R rs6127698 TT genotype increased the risk of PTB compared with GG (additive model: OR 2.24, 95%CI 1.13-4.64, P = 0.021) as well as GG+GT (recessive model: OR 1.89, 95%CI 1.13-3.18, P = 0.016). The rs6127698 T allele increased the risk of PTB (OR 1.56, 95%CI 1.14-2.13, P = 0.005) compared to the G allele. The CTSZ rs34069356 polymorphism was not associated with PTB in additive-, dominant- and recessive-tested inheritance models (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION Our data suggest that MC3R rs6127698, but not CTSZ rs34069356 polymorphism, is associated with PTB in a sample Iranian population.

Abstract
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) chronic infection is a worldwide health problem, and numerous efforts have been invested to develop novel vaccines. An efficient vaccine requires broad immune response induction against viral proteins. To achieve this goal, we constructed a DNA vaccine expressing nonstructural 3 (NS3) gene (pcDNA3.1-HCV-NS3) and assessed the immune response in C57BL/6 mice. In this study, the NS3 gene was amplified with a nested-reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method using sera of HCV-infected patients with genotype 1a. The resulting NS3 gene was subcloned into a pcDNA3.1 eukaryotic expression vector, and gene expression was detected by western blot. The resultant DNA vaccine was co-administered with interleukin-12 (IL-12) as an adjuvant to female C57BL/6 mice. After the final immunizations, lymphocyte proliferation, cytotoxicity, and cytokine levels were assessed to measure immune responses. Our data suggest that co-administration of HCV NS3 DNA vaccine with IL-12 induces production of significant levels of both IL-4 and interferon (IFN)-γ (p<0.05). Cytotoxicity and lymphocyte proliferation responses of vaccinated mice were significantly increased compared to control (p<0.05). Collectively, our results demonstrated that co-administration of HCV NS3 and IL-12 displayed strong immunogenicity in a murine model.

Abstract
Factor XIII or "fibrin-stabilizing factor," is a transglutaminase circulates in the blood circulation as a hetero tetramer with two catalytic A subunits and two carrier B subunits. This important coagulation factor has a crucial role in clotting cascade and produces strong covalent bonds between soluble formed fibrin monomers during coagulation. This stable cross linked fibrin strands are resistanttodegradationby thefibrinolyticsystem that enablesthe bodyto stoppotential bleeding episodes. In the absence or severe decrease of factor XIII, although the clot is formed, but is rapidly degraded by the fibrinolytic system, and delayed bleedingoccurs.Factor XIII deficiency is an extremely rare bleeding disorder with estimated incidence of 1/2-3000, 000 in the general population. Presumptive diagnosis of factor XIII deficiency was by clot solubility test in 5M urea or 1% monochloroacetic acid environments. In patients with abnormal screening clot solubility test, the disease can be confirmedbymore specifictestssuch as quantitative factor XIII activity assay andFXIIIAgassay.After diagnosis of disease all patients with severe factor XIII deficiency(<1 U/dl) shouldreceive prophylactic substitution therapywith fresh frozen plasma (FFP) and cryoprecipitate as traditional choices or purified concentrateof blood coagulation factor XIII (Fibrogammin P) inorder to control severe and life-threatening clinical complications of factor XIII deficiency.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of processing route (i.e., quench cooling and ball milling) on the surface energy heterogeneity and surface chemistry of indomethacin (IMC). Recently developed inverse gas chromatography (IGC) methodology at finite concentrations was employed to determine the surface energy distributions of crystalline, quench cooled and milled IMC samples. Surface properties of crystalline and processed IMC were measurably different as determined by the IGC and other conventional characterization techniques: differential scanning calorimetry and powder X-ray diffraction. Quench cooled IMC was in fully amorphous form. Milled IMC showed no amorphous character by calorimetric or X-ray diffraction studies. It was demonstrated that both processed IMC samples were energetically more active than the crystalline IMC. In particular, milled IMC exhibited a relatively higher dispersive surface energy and higher surface basicity (electron donor capability). This may be attributed to the creation of surface defect sites or exposure of higher energy crystal facets during the milling process. This study confirms that processing route has notable influence on the surface energy distribution and surface acid-base character. IGC was demonstrated as a powerful technique for investigating surface properties of real-world, heterogeneous pharmaceutical materials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thalassemia is the most common monogenic disease in South-East of Iran. Despite the 70% reduction in Iranian thalassemia cases after thalassemia control comprehensive program, 601 affected babies were born in Sistan and Balouchistan Province, Iran from 2002 to 2010, so this study aims at investigating the causes of new thalassemia cases. METHODS Data from this retrospective cross-sectional study was collected through interviews and information in the patients' hospital records. RESULTS Data revealed that 52.4% of fathers and 78.4% of mothers of thalassemic children had elementary education or less. In addition, 78.6% of the couples did not undergo premarital screening for thalassemia and 71.2% of the couples were not notified of their own minor thalassemia until a child was born with major thalassemia. Of the diagnosed minor couples, about 25% did PND and the others did not carry out because mothers were unaware of proper gestational age and of the importance of this issue, financial problems, and the husbands' disagreement to take the tests. Moreover, 16 mothers, in spite of being diagnosed of having a major fetus, refused to terminate the pregnancy. CONCLUSION The most preventable causes for affected births include couples' unawareness of being minor and unawares of the PND importance and process.

Abstract
The protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) gene, which encodes an intracellular lymphoid-specific phosphatase, is considered an important regulator of T-cell activation. We investigated a possible association between the PTPN22 C1858T (R620W) polymorphism and pulmonary tuberculosis in an Iranian population. Single nucleotide polymorphisms of PTPN22 C1858T (rs2476601) were genotyped in 172 pulmonary tuberculosis cases and 204 normal subjects from Zaheden, Iran. Frequencies of genotypes CC, CT and TT of the PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism were 98.3, 1.7 and 0% in the pulmonary tuberculosis patients, and 96.1, 3.9 and 0% in the control group, respectively (P = 0.239). The frequency of the minor (T) allele was 0.8% in pulmonary tuberculosis patients and 2.0% in controls. Significant differences were not observed in genotype or allele frequencies of PTPN22 C1858T in the comparison between pulmonary tuberculosis patients and healthy subjects in our Iranian population sample.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the molecular spectrum of β-thalassemia mutations among at-risk Balouch couples in Iran. METHODS Mutations' detection in DNAs extracted from the blood of partners of at-risk couples was characterized, and chorion villus sampling by amplification refractory mutation system and DNA sequencing was performed. Fetal diagnosis was also confirmed by linkage analysis. RESULTS Out of a total of 1234 at-risk Balouch couples referred to the center for prenatal diagnosis (PND) from June 2002 to June 2010, a high percentage of '67.4%' were from consanguineous marriages and 37.4% had between one and four affected children. The trend in referring gradually increased from 34 cases in 2002 to 357 cases in 2010. The astonishing finding was that, unlike most previous studies, only IVS 1-5 with an unusual frequency of 87.20% along with codon 8/9 (+G) with 4% constitutes about 91% of mutations. Altogether, 729 PNDs were made in 583 couples, 25% of whom had over one PND, and surprisingly five PNDs were made in the same woman within just 8 years. CONCLUSION Regarding the limited types of frequent mutations among Balouch population, it is hopefully believed that the incidence of β-thalassemia could be controlled by a correct diagnosis in the due time.

Abstract
Concerning the key role of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) in the protective immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, we aimed to find the possible association between single nucleotide polymorphism of IFN-γ +874T/A (rs61923114) and pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). This case-control study was performed on 142 PTB patients and 166 healthy subjects. Genotype analysis was done using amplification refractory mutation system-PCR (ARMS-PCR). We found that the AA genotype of +874A/T IFN-γ is a risk factor for PTB (OR = 3.333, 95% CI = 1.537-7.236, p=0.002). The results showed that the +874A allele frequency was higher in PTB than in normal subjects (OR = 1.561, 95% CI = 1.134-2.480, p=0.007). In conclusion, significant association was found between the IFN-γ +874T/A polymorphism (rs61923114) and susceptibility to PTB in a sample of Iranian population.

Abstract
Approximately 5-10% of subjects infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis develop active tuberculosis. It has been proposed that genetic factors determine the host's vulnerability to tuberculosis. Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2), commonly known as monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), plays a key role in protective immunity against M. tuberculosis. The present study was aimed to determine if there was an association between -2581 A/G single nucleotide polymorphism of CCL2 and pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in a sample of Iranian subjects. This case-control study was performed on 142 PTB and 166 healthy subjects. The polymorphism of CCL2 (rs1024611) was determined using tetra amplification refractory mutational system-polymerase chain reaction (tetra ARMS-PCR). There were no significant differences between PTB patients and control subjects regarding -2581 A/G single nucleotide polymorphism of CCL2. In conclusion, our results do not support an association of -2581 A/G polymorphism of CCL2 with PTB susceptibility.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY to determine the efficacy, adverse effects and safety of a new Iranian generic product of deferasirox (Osveral®) in Iranian transfusion dependent major thalassemic (TD-MT) patients. METHODS In 9 main thalassemia treatment centers, all of TD-MT patients (aged ≥2 yrs) with serum ferritin (SF) levels≥1000 ng/ml, or >100 ml/kg of RBC transfusion,who could not tolerate parental iron chelating were recruited regardless of their previous iron chelation therapy. Periodical clinical and laboratory evaluations were conducted for adverse effects (AEs). Primary efficacy end point was Mean of Relative Change of Serum Ferritin (MRC-SF) from the baseline level during one year. Analysis of variance (ANOVA), t test, chi-square or Fisher exact test were used for statistic analysis appropriately (P values <0.05 were considered as statistical significant). RESULTS In 407 cases the male/female ratio was 0.98. Mean age was 11.5±7.4 (2-58) years. The mean of initiating dose of Osveral® and mean usage dose during the study was 23.5±4.9 mg/kg and 24.9±4.9 mg/kg respectively. MRC-SF was -11.44% ±38.92 and it showed significant decline in SF (P value<0.001) one hundred and forty eight patients out of 407 patients experienced at least one. AE, the most common of them were transient increase in serum creatinin (97;24.1%) and>5 time increase in transaminases (24;5.89%).The causes of discontinuation of treatment were non-satisfactory treatment ( 24; 5.8%), poor or non-compliance of patients (21;5.1%), and adverse effects (13; 3.1%) CONCLUSION A detailed comparison with similar studies on deferasirox (Exjade®) shows a promising efficacy and safety for its Iranian generic product (Osveral ®).

We postulate that the thermodynamic entropy of metals undergoing repeated cyclic load reaching the point of fracture is a constant, independent of geometry, load and frequency. That is, the necessary and sufficient condition for the final fracture of a metal undergoing fatigue load corresponds to a constant irreversible entropy gain. To examine validity, we present the results of an extensive set of both experimental tests and analytical predictions that involve bending, torsion and tension-compression of aluminium 6061-T6 and stainless steel 304 specimens. The concept of tallying up the entropy generation has application in determining the fatigue life of components undergoing cyclic bending, torsion and tension-compression.
