Abstract
The Common Fig is one of the first plants which cultivated by humans. This plant is an important crop for dry and fresh consumption all over the world. In order to inspection of nutritional quality of various fig cultivars in different regions of Lorestan province an experiment was conducted in Medicine University of Lorestan in 2009. Material and methods: In this experiment, amounts of some minerals (potassium, calcium, phosphorus, iron and zinc), protein, fat, sugar, energy, brix (total soluble solids), acidity, pH, vitamin c, brix to acidity ratio and hardness were evaluated in three common fig cultivars (Siah, Rashe and Sefid) of Lorestan province in Gushe, Kelat-e-Zivdar, Mamulan and Zurantel-e-Zivdar regions. Results: Results showed that: Siah cultivar had the highest calcium concentration among fig cultivars. On the other hand, lowest iron concentration observed in Kelat-e-Zivdar as compared to other regions. Higher amount of fat was assayed in Siah and Rashe cultivars than Sefid cultivar. The highest amount of energy and sugar were assayed in Mamulan and Zurantel-e-Zivdar regions. Acidity in Siah and Rashe cultivars was lowest in Gushe region. Gushe region had the lowest and Siah and Rashe cultivars had the greatest brix index. The highest vitamin C was assayed in the figs grown in Gushe region. The highest and lowest brix to acidity ratios were observed in Gushe region in Siah cultivar and in Kelat-e-Zivdar in Sefid cultivar, respectively. There were not any significant differences between cultivars and regions in the case of phosphorus, potassium and zinc concentrations and protein amount. Conclusion: Based on the results obtained, it can be concluded that: the Siah cultivar and Mamulan region relatively had the highest nutritional and qualitative values in Lorestan province.

Abstract
Background:: Decades have passed since the use of radiographic technology as an accurate paraclinical tool and it has always been tried to observe protective measures against ionizing radiation. This issue is especially important in the field of dentistry due to the frequent use of radiographs in the office. Accordingly, the present study was conducted to determine the principles of radiation protection in dental offices in Ilam. Materials and Methods:This was a descriptive cross-sectional study. The number of samples was equal to 42 dental offices in Ilam. Information completed by checklist. Data were collected by SPSS24 software at a significance level of 0.05 and descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: There was no significant relationship between personnel protection methods with age and work experience, also between the device with gender and work experience (P>0.05). There was no significant relationship between processing method and between exposure time with age, gender and work experience (P>0.05). There was no significant relationship between radiography technique and age and gender (P>0.05) but there was a significant relationship with work experience (P<0.05). There was a significant relationship between the radiographer with gender and work experience (P<0.05) . Conclusion: The results of this study indicated that dental

Abstract
Background: The mandibular bone, similar to other bones in the human body, has a number of effective anatomical features that the use of radiographic images of these features can be effective in various findings, such as forensic dentistry. The present study aimed to estimate age, gender, and height by measuring the anthropometric radiographic indices of the mandible in 20-50-year-olds of Iranian race.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 100 people (50 female and 50 male) who were referred to the Orthodontics Department of Ilham Dental School in 2018. The required information was extracted and recorded from patients' panoramic radiographs. Statistical analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, t-test, and SPSS (version 22) software.
Results: The results of this study showed no significant difference between any of the studied variables with age (P>0.05). However, a significant difference was observed between mandibular width, mandibular height, gonial angle, mandibular canal, and the superior-inferior position of the mandibular foramen with gender and height (P<0.05). Moreover, no significant difference was found between the location of the mental foramen and the posterior and anterior position of the mandibular foramen with height (P>0.05). In addition, although no significant difference was seen between the antegonial angle and gender, the antegonial angle had a significant relationship with height (P<0.04).
Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between skeletal variables and gender and height, and it may be possible to determine the gender and height of individuals by evaluating radiomorphometric indices.
