Abstract
Role of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-like sequences in antibiotic resistance and biofilm formation isn't clear. This study investigated association of CRISPR-like sequences with antibiotic resistance and biofilm formation in H. pylori isolates. Thirty-six of H. pylori isolates were studied for existence of CRISPR-like sequences using PCR method and their correlation with biofilm formation and antibiotic resistance. Microtiter-plate technique was utilized for investigating antibiotic resistance profile of isolates against amoxicillin, tetracycline, metronidazole and clarithromycin. Biofilm formation of isolates was analyzed by microtiter-plate-based-method. Out of 23 CRISPR-like positive isolates, 19 had ability of biofilm formation and 7 of 13 CRISPR-like negative isolates were able to form biofilm (Pvalue = 0.445). In CRISPR-like positive isolates, 11 (48%), 18 (78%), 18 (78%) and 23 (100%) were resistant to amoxicillin, tetracycline, metronidazole and clarithromycin, respectively. Since CRISPR-like sequences have role in antibiotic resistance, may be applied as genetic markers of antibiotic resistance. But there was no substantial correlation between biofilm formation and existence of CRISPR-like sequences. These results indicate possible importance of CRISPR-like sequences on acquisition of resistance to antibiotics in this bacterium.

Abstract
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer and the second leading cause of death worldwide. However, CRC is considered as one of the most preventable cancers by which the mortality rates reduce about 60% through implementing the screening programmes. The present study aimed to evaluate the main barriers of CRC screening in a defined population. Method Healthy individuals from all regions of the state were invited to participate in different healthcare centres. They were assessed by a provided online risk assessment tool, which was completed for all recruited subjects, and has been developed to assess the CRC risk based on personal and family history of adenoma, CRC, and other high-risk diseases. Research team staff assessed all individuals by this tool and then eligible people according to their lifetime risk of CRC were included in the study. There was not any age restriction in this study. Colonoscopy and three stool-based tests including faecal occult blood test, faecal immunochemical test and stool DNA tests were performed. Results Overall, 725 cases including 425 (58.6%) males and 300 (41.4%) females participated in the study. Lack of knowledge and attitude about screening programmes was the most common barrier, especially among women (68% for women versus 58% for men) and those from rural areas (88% in rural versus 55% in urban areas). Fear of colonoscopy and procedure complications and pain (48%), discomfort and anxiety from inserting a tube into the bowel (65% among females versus 43% among males) were reported commonly. Embarrassment and dignity were other complaints, especially in women (62% in females versus 35% in males). Conclusion Increasing knowledge and attitude about the aims and benefits of screening programmes, acceptable and convenient communication of health systems with the general population are considered to be the key elements in the success and implementation of any screening programme.

Abstract
Background:
Pistacia atlantica (P. atlantica) has been associated with beneficial medical effects on gastrointestinal complications.
Objective:
It was intended to assess the effects of P. atlantica in elimination of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and amelioration of gastric reflux and chronic cough.
Methods:
In this clinical trial study, 100 subjects with H. pylori infection who had the symptoms of gastric reflux and chronic cough were recruited and classified into two intervention and placebo groups, continuing 50 subjects each. The intervention group was administered two 500 mg doses of P. atlantica extract each day. The H. pylori antigen load in stool samples was evaluated using ELISA. The severity of cough and gastric re
flux was also determined.
Results:
The subjects in two groups were age and sex matched and the baseline measurements were similar on the day 0. Nonetheless, it was observed that on the day 14, there was a significant reduction of H. pylori antigen load in the intervention group compared with the placebo group (P = 0.00021). Furthermore, the intensity of chronic cough was reduced significantly in the intervention group (P = 0.0014). The gastric reflux was improved in the intervention group at the end of the study.
Conclusion:
P. atlantica extract was beneficial in controlling H. pylori infection. It also improved the complications of the infection, like gastric reflux and chronic cough. Hence, it is highly recommended to value natural products, along with traditional antibiotics, in ameliorating H. pylori infection.

Abstract
PURPOSE Gastric cancer (GC) is caused by environmental factors and genetic changes of protein-coding- and non-coding sequences, which entail short non-coding RNAs (microRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). DLEU1 (deleted in lymphocytic leukemia 1), as an effective lncRNA located on chromosome 14.3q 13, modulates the nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) signaling pathway. This gene usually plays an oncogenic role in the tumorigenesis of multiple types of cancer. The present study examined the expression level of DLEU1 and its association with clinical-pathological characteristics in GC. METHODS Total RNA of 100 specimens was extracted by TRIzol reagent. After cDNA synthesis, qRT-PCR analysis was performed to measure the expression level of the DLEU1 gene and the obtained data were analyzed by SPSS 16.0. RESULTS The relative expression level of DLEU1 significantly increased in tumor specimens compared to the normal tumor margin specimens. The biomarker index of lncRNA DLEU1 was 0.7 in tumor tissues. The observed high expression level of DLEU1 was pertinent to the pathological progressive TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, differentiation degree, patient's age and lifestyle, and Helicobacter pylori infection in GC patients. CONCLUSION The obtained findings suggested that DLEU1 acts as an oncogene in GC and might be a new target for gene therapy of GC.

Abstract
T regulatory cells (Tregs) and related-cytokines are effectively engaged in the process of tumor immune escape and functionally inhibit immune response against the tumor. This study aimed to investigate the association of Foxp3 gene single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (rs3761548) with serum IL-35, IL-10, and TGF-β levels in gastric adenocarcinoma (GA) patients. The blood samples were obtained from 150 GA patients and 166 control subjects. The polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method was done to genotyping of Foxp3 gene polymorphism (rs3761548). The serum cytokines levels were measured using the ELISA method. According to genotyping, the AA, and AC genotypes and A allele demonstrated significantly greater risk of GA. Considering the Lauren classification, our results revealed a greater risk of GA progression in patients with AC + AA genotype compared to CC genotype. Moreover, significantly increased levels of IL-10, IL-35, and TGF-β were observed in GA patients compared to controls and also in diffuse-type compared to the intestinal type of GA patients. The IL-35, IL-10 concentrations in GA patients displayed significant differences between the participants with CC, AC and AA genotypes. Further analysis indicated the prognostic role of serum IL-35, IL-10, and TGF-β levels in GA patients. Our results confirmed that the Foxp3 polymorphism (rs3761548) could influence the predisposition to GA and the serum IL-10, IL-35, and TGF-β levels. Thus, this polymorphism might be involved in the GA progression through influencing Tregs function and the secretion of immunomodulatory cytokines.

Abstract
Purpose: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and steatohepatitis are two forms of fatty liver disease with benign and malignant nature, respectively. These two conditions can cause an increased risk of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Given the importance and high prevalence of NAFLD, it is necessary to investigate the results of different studies in related scope to provide a clarity guarantee of effectiveness. Therefore, this systematic review and meta-analysis aim to study the efficacy of various medications used in the treatment of NAFLD. Methods: A systematic search of medical databases identified 1963 articles. After exclusion of duplicated articles and those which did not meet our inclusion criteria, eta-analysis was performed on 84 articles. Serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate amino transferase (AST) were set as primary outcomes and body mass index (BMI), hepatic steatosis, and NAFLD activity score (NAS) were determined as secondary outcomes. Results: Based on the P-score of the therapeutic effects on the non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), we observed the highest efficacy for atorvastatin, tryptophan, orlistat, omega-3 and obeticholic acid for reduction of ALT, AST, BMI, steatosis and NAS respectively. Conclusion: This meta-analysis showed that atorvastatin. life-style modification, weight loss, and BMI reduction had a remarkable effect on NAFLD-patients by decreasing aminotransferases.

Abstract
Background Considering the lifelong dietary restriction in celiac patients, it is important to assess the diet quality in these patients. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the diet quality in adult celiac patients and compare it with that of the non-celiac people. Methods In the present cross-sectional study, 130 celiac patients were selected from the celiac disease (CD) registry database of East Azerbaijan province, Iran. Non-celiac people (n = 464) was selected from the major lifestyle promotion project conducted in the East Azerbaijan district. The dietary intake data was obtained by an 80-item semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Diet quality was assessed using the healthy eating index-2015 (HEI-2015). Results The mean total HEI score was significantly higher in the celiac group compared with the non-celiac people (P < 0.001) and 68.5% of non-celiac people and 17.4% of celiac patients had poor diet quality. After adjusting for confounding factors, the mean score of total HEI in adherents to gluten-free diet (GFD) was significantly higher compared with non-adherents (P = 0.007). Conclusions Although the mean total HEI score was higher in celiac patients compared with the non-celiac people, about 17.5% of patients had poor diet quality and the scores of whole grains and dairy products group were very low in our population. Accordingly, it seems that educational programs should be held for the celiac patients and non-celiac people to increase their nutritional literacy and enable them to select healthy gluten-free alternatives.

Abstract
Background: Diabetes is referred to a group of diseases characterized by high glucose levels in blood. It is caused by a deficiency in the production or function of insulin or both, which can occur because of different reasons, resulting in protein and lipid metabolic disorders. The aim of this study was to systematically review the prevalence and incidence of type 1 diabetes in the world. Methods: A systematic search of resources was conducted to investigate the prevalence and incidence of type 1 diabetes in the world. The databases of Medline (via PubMed and Ovid),ProQuest, Scopus, and Web of Science from January 1980 to September 2019 were searched to locate English articles. The located articles were screened in multiple levels of title, abstract,and full-text and final studies that met the inclusion criteria were retrieved and included in the study. Results: From 1202 located articles, 193 studies were included in this systematic review. The results of meta-analysis showed that the incidence of type 1 diabetes was 15 per 100,000 people and the prevalence was 9.5% (95% CI: 0.07 to 0.12) in the world, which was statistically significant. Conclusion: According to the results, the incidence and prevalence of type 1 diabetes are increasing in the world. As a result, insulin will be difficult to access and afford, especially in underdeveloped and developing countries.

Abstract
AIM To determine the diagnostic performance of 64-slice multidetector computed tomography (64-MDCT) in detecting periampullary duodenal diverticula. MATERIALS AND METHODS Medical profiles of 120 endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)-proven patients with (n = 100) and without (n = 20) periampullary duodenal diverticula who had undergone 64-MDCT were retrospectively reviewed. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of 64-MDCT in detecting periampullary duodenal diverticula were calculated. Potential factors that might influence the diagnostic performance of 64-MDCT in such patients were also examined. RESULTS Patients were 60 males and 60 females with the mean age of 68.8 ± 12.7 (27-93) years. Indications of ERCP were common bile duct stricture (n = 62) or stone (n = 41), biliary cholestasis (n = 16) and acute cholangitis (n = 1). The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV of 64-MDCT in detecting periampullary duodenal diverticula were 76%, 100%, 100%, and 45.5%, respectively. The size of diverticula was the only predictor of 64-MDCT performance, with better results observed in larger (> 20 mm) diverticula. CONCLUSION 64-MDCT is a highly specific imaging modality in detecting periampullary duodenal diverticula. The diagnostic performance of 64-MDCT increases for larger diverticula.

Abstract
Context Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal dominant disorder. Colorectal cancer (CRC) has been implicated as the most common cause of death in FAP patients, especially in those with coexisting CRC at initial diagnosis (FAP-CRC). Aim We aimed to determine the survival rate of FAP-CRC and the factors affecting FAP-CRC survival. Setting and Design This was a retrospective cohort FAP study conducted in northwest Iran. Subjects and Methods From 2006 to 2016, 51 FAP-CRC individuals were selected from among 4588 CRC patients. Statistical Analysis A Student's t-test, life table method, log-rank tests, a Kaplan-Maier survival curve, and Cox regression analysis were performed and a value of P < 0.05 was set as statistically significant. Results A total of 51 FAP-CRC patients were selected, (30 males and 21 females), with a mean age of 42.2 years at diagnosis. The most common presenting symptom was abdominal pain and the most common primary tumor site was the rectum. The 1-, 5- and 10-year overall survival rates were 76%, 59%, and 52%, respectively. Factors affecting the FAP-CRC survival rate, namely, sex, age at CRC diagnosis, and extracolonic manifestations showed no significant differences. The difference in 5-year survival rates between patients with colon and rectal cancers was significant (75% vs. 33%, P = 0.02). The survival rate was significantly higher among patients with disease Stages I and II than those in disease Stages III and IV (P = 0.001). 5-year survival rates in patients with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis and ileorectal anastomosis were 71% and 78%, respectively (P = 0.001). There was an interesting difference in survival between FAP and attenuated FAP (P = 0.01). In cox regression analysis, distant metastasis was a significant predictor of survival (P = 0.001). Conclusions Long-term survival from FAP-CRC remains poor; therefore, early-stage detection and the choice of an appropriate surgical method can improve survival in such patients.

Abstract
Introduction: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) accounts as a major cause of mortality among patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Resveratrol, a natural polyphenol compound, is known for its antioxidant and antiatherogenic properties and is purported to be beneficial in decreasing CVD risk factors in NAFLD patients. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effects of resveratrol on atherogenic risk factors in patients with NAFLD. Methods: This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial was performed on 50 patients with NAFLD aged 20-60 years. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive a daily dose of 600 mg resveratrol (n = 25) or placebo (n = 25) for 12 wk. Serum liver enzymes, lipid profile and atherogenic indices, blood pressure and anthropometric values were assessed pre and post-treatment. Results: Resveratrol supplementation reduced body weight (from 88.75 ± 11.41 to 87.54 ± 11.18 kg, P = 0.005) and BMI (from 31.00 ± 3.16 to 30.60 ± 3.26 kg/m², P = 0.01) significantly compared to the placebo group. A significant reduction in waist circumference was observed within resveratrol group (from 102.70 ± 7.68 to 101.39 ± 7.62 cm, P = 0.02). There were no significant changes in lipid profile (ox-LDL, ApoA1 and ApoB), serum atherogenic indices (LDL-C/HDL-C, ApoB/ApoA1, ox-LDL/ApoB, LDL-C/ox-LDL and AIP), liver enzymes (AST, ALT, ALP and GGT), hip circumference, waist-to-hip ratio and blood pressure in either group (P > 0.05 for all). Conclusion: These findings indicated that resveratrol supplementation in dose and duration used in this study did not affect most of the CVD risk factors in NAFLD patients. Further studies are warranted to explain more effects of resveratrol on CVD complications of NAFLD. Registration ID in IRCT: IRCT201511233664N16.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dendritic cells (DCs) are used in many malignancies as vaccines to induce immunity against specific cancer antigens. The role of DCs in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is not determined. In this study, the proportion of mCRPC patients with clinically significant response to targeted therapy by DCs pulsed with prostate-specific membrane antigen was evaluated, and the possible adverse effects of this modality were investigated. METHODS Major databases were searched up to Feb 2017, to identify studies in which the antitumor efficacy of DCs pulsed with the extracellular portion of PSMA was studied for the treatment of mCRPC. Data were collected by two reviewers and analyzed using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software, version 2.0. FINDINGS Our study consisted of 6 nonrandomized prospective (cohort) trials, overall reporting on 153 mCRPC patients. The event rate that is the representative of fraction of patients showing antitumor response was 0.43 (95% confidence interval = 0.355-0.512; P = 0.097). No significant between-study heterogeneity or inconsistency was detected (I2 = 5.47; Q = 5; P = 0.382). Our study failed to demonstrate a significant therapeutic efficacy for DCs in mCRPC. However, no significant adverse effects were seen.

Abstract
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a distressing group of symptoms related to menstrual cycle during reproductive age. Its substantial burden on daily function and quality of life, particularly on mental aspects, was to the impetus for this study with the aim of determining the effectiveness of a psycho-educational package on premenstrual syndrome and related symptoms. In a randomized clinical trial, 123 (17-19-year-old) adolescent girls with PMS were randomized to psycho-educational intervention (including 62 subjects) and control (including 61) groups. The participants completed a demographic questionnaire, premenstrual syndrome symptom daily record scale and the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised (SCL-90-R). A paired and two independent samples t-test and chi-squared test were used for analysing data using SPSS statistical package. At the end of the study there was statistically significant decrease in severity of total PMS in intervention compared with control group (P < 0.001). Also, a significant difference in somatization, anxiety and hostility was observed between two groups (P < 0.05). However, depression marginally decreased (P < 0.1) in intervention group, and interpersonal sensitivity was not statistically different between intervention and control groups. Intervention alleviated the severity of PMS and related somatization, anxiety and hostility, yet it could not change the severity of depression and interpersonal sensitivity.
