Abstract
Background: Metabolic disturbances and dyslipidemia are among the most important medical problems in human society. Their effects on the mortality of coronary heart disease (CHD) have lead to many investigations about them.
Materials and Methods: An epidemiologic cross-sectional study was carried out on 10136 persons selected randomly in Tehran urban district 13 with a minimum age of 20 years and over. We measured fasting blood sugar, blood sugar 2 hours post 75 grams oral glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, alkaline phosphatase and TSH. Degree of physical activity was registered according to “LRC” classification and anthropometric data, Social condition, family history and smoking exactly delineated. Our patients were divided into two groups. Those who had normal lipid profile and those with dyslipidemia. The latter group was further divided into two subgroups. Primary (without any risk factor for dyslipidemia) and secondary (having one or more risk factors such as DM…). ANOVA, t test, and logistic were used to analyze the level of significance. A P value of 0.05 was adopted.
Findings: of all patients, 9632cases (5619 female and 4013 male) had all detailed data needed for analysis and drawing Conclusions. 3697 female (65.8%) and 2903 male (72.3%) had as little as one type of dyslipidemia and the total prevalence was (68.5%). In female group, 1179 cases (34.8%) and in male group, 1165 cases (42.8%) had no risk factor for dyslipidemia (Primary dyslipidemia). There were 13 patients with renal failure. 100% of them were dyslipidemic. Total cholesterol, LDL.C and triglyceride increased and HDL.C in CRF group were lower (p<0.05) than non-CRF group.
Conclusion: Tehran eastern population suffers from a high prevalence of dyslipidemia and a large number of persons suffer from secondary dyslipidemia. Renal failure is one of the leading causes of dyslipidemia in our society.

Abstract
Background: Introduction Heart disease and its psychological complications are known to be the most important causes of mortality in the world. Compares in heart patients.
Materials and Methods: The present study was a pre-test, post-test with a control group. The statistical population included a number of women with heart disease in Khorramabad in 1399, of whom 45 were available ( 15 people in the first group 15 people in the second group 15 people in the control group) Intervention in the two treatment groups was held separately in 10 sessions of 90 minutes each and no training was applied for the control group. The instrument of this study was the 12-item self-care scale developed by Jarsma and the 20-item treatment follow-up (5 general follow-up questions and 15 specific follow-up questions) developed by Hayes. The test answered its questions and multivariate analysis of covariance was used to analyze the data.
Results: The combination of acceptance and commitment-based therapy and self-compassion training and emotion-oriented cognitive-behavioral therapy improves self-care and adherence to treatment in women with cardiovascular disease (p <0.05) and percentage Their improvement was higher than the control group (p <0.05). But the two experimental groups were not significantly different (P <0.05).
Conclusion: The combination of acceptance and commitment-based therapy and self-compassion training and emotion-oriented cognitive-behavioral therapy leads to continuity and management in self-care, symptom detection and adherence to physician recommendations in women with cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Background: The gastrointestinal tract, as one of the most important organs of the body, has its own diseases that involved many people. Therefore, the present study seeks to investigate the effectiveness acceptance and commitment therapy based on cognitive-emotional regulation and cognitive flexibility among gastrointestinal patients.
Materials and Methods: The research method was quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest design with control group was unbalanced and the statistical population of this study was all gastrointestinal patients in Sari who referred to Imam Khomeini Hospital in 2020 and its sample included 30 people (15 people for the experimental group and 15 people for the control group), who were selected using the available sampling method. Then, the members of the experimental group were treated for 8 sessions based on acceptance and commitment and the control group did not receive any treatment. Research instruments included the Cognitive-Emotional Regulation Questionnaire (Garnowski et al, 2001) and Cognitive Flexibility (Dena and Venedrwal, 2010). And the statistical method of this research was multivariate analysis of covariance.
Results: The results of multivariable covariance analysis showed that acceptance and commitment therapy was effective on cognitive-emotional regulation and cognitive flexibility and significantly improved cognitive-emotional regulation and cognitive flexibility in gastrointestinal patients.
Conclusion: According to the research findings, acceptance and commitment therapy can be used as an effective method to promote cognitive-emotional regulation and cognitive flexibility in gastrointestinal patients.
