The purpose of present research is to survey the effectiveness of social skills training on decreasing the likelihood of school girls’ addiction in pre-university schools of Tehran city. Materials and Methods:For collecting research data related to effectiveness of social skills training on addiction decrease among school girls, in pretest stage, 300 girls were selected by random simple sampling method in Tehran city. Then in post-test stage in each one of the control and experimental groups, 15 students attended in order to gather information from independent T-test to determie significance of difference between means and F-test to compare scores. Results: Analysis of data showed significant difference between the results of the two tests in both groups of control and experimental and also showed that social skills training can cause decrease in the likelihood of school girls’ addiction, preparation to addiction, and decrease in the youth’s confession to it . Discussion: Social skill training courses to campaign against youth's inclination to narcotic drugs must fulfill the requirements set by referent groups such as consultants, school teachers, and social planners.

So ,carefull information about frequency distribution , mortality and morbidity , male : female ratio and other characteristics of ARF in ICU have important role to prevent and manage patients and to predict equipments and trainees personel . Therefor this evaluation considered to be necessary for above evidence Materials and Methods: In this analytic - descriptive study , 1383 patients were investigated in surgery ICU during 1996 - 2000. Findings were collected based on age , sex , admission cause , etiology , mortality and morbidity . Datas were analyzed statistically Results: Frequency of ARF was 25.9 percent . The most common cause of ARF was prerenal factors (57.9 percent) that include : surgery drainage , bleeding and trauma . The most frequence of age group was > 70 y (25.6 percent) and the least was 31 - 40 years old . Total mean age of patients were 36.5 19 y and about ARF were 52 5.8 y (P < 0.05). Males (30.3 percent) were more than females (19.9 percent) (P < 0.05) . Mortality rate in ARF was 57.9 percent and in other patients was 12.8 percent (P < 0.05) Conclusion: Relative frequency percentage of ARF indidcates its high frequency among hospitalized patients in ICU . Incidence of ARF increase with age and is similar to previous studies . It is probably due to underlying diseases and reduction of renal function in this age group . Males were more than female because of increasing trauma and surgery in this group . The most common cause of prerenal ARF was large amount of blood and fluids loss . Mortality rate was more than previous studies and was statistically significant . It is probably evidences of injury severity and co-existing disturbances . Because of high incidence of ARF in ICU it is necessary to maintain patients hemdynamic status , infuse enough fluids , adjust drug doses , … for immediate diagnosis and treatment of these patients.}, Keywords = {ICU , ARF , GFR }, volume = {12}, Number = {3}, pages = {37-43}, publisher = {Lorestan University of Medical Sciences}, url = {http://yafte.lums.ac.ir/article-1-321-en.html}, eprint = {http://yafte.lums.ac.ir/article-1-321-en.pdf}, journal = {Yafteh}, issn = {1563-0773}, eissn = {2981-0779}, year = {2011} } @article{ author = {mardani, mahnaz and ShamsKhoramabadi, manochehr and mosadegh, ali ahmad and rezapoor, sadegh}, title = {Investigation of educational impact on emergency clinical skills of medical students of Lorestan University of medical sciences}, abstract ={Enablement and acquiring necessary skills among medical students is a main section of medical education. Any problem in clinical education reduced efficacy and efficiency this part of education that could be due to weakness of education in medical universities. Therefore, medical universities initiated clinical skills learning centers. Materials and Methods: This study as an interventional pre-post test performed on interned medical students. Before and after educational course including cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, hemorrhage control, non-invasive ventilation, suturing, insertion of urinary and nose-gastric catheters and administration of local anesthesia, a two- Part questionnaire including demographic and emergency clinical skills was filled for each student. The data were analyzed using statistical tests. Reliability of questionnaire was conformed by some expert scientific staffs and its validity was approved through the pilot study of 20 students with correlation coefficient 0.93 of Cronbach's Alpha Results: This study showed that students after intervention of educational training, in all of the emergency clinical skills including cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, hemorrhage control, non-invasive ventilation, suturing, insertion of urinary and nose-gastric catheters and administration of local anesthesia, have gained desirable and optimal scores in comparison with pre educational training.

Material and Methods: This descriptive cross sectional study conducted on 5695 male and female students studying at 39 primary schools of Khorramabad (district one). In order to scrutinize the status of the supervision of supply and distribution of the nutritive substances to the students and the measurement of the amount of the nutritional and hygienic knowledge of the parents and educators, a census was carried out. It suffices to say that the parents’ samples were selected apropos the arrangement of the classificatory sampling,cluster sampling, the two-stage sampling, and finally systematic sampling.The data gathering tool was a two self-made questionnaire completed by the interviewees themselves. Subsequently, the data were described with respect to the frequency distribution tables, the x2 independence tests and SPSS,V.15 saftware. Results: It was considered that 29.7% of the primary schools possessed buffets. Besides, 40.5% of them had hygiene educators. The amount of the attentiveness of the parents and educators to the control and supervision of the nutritive substances at the buffets was 61.5%, which is considered as a relatively good estimate. In this way, it is posited that, there exists a significant relationship between the existences of buffets at the primary schools and the scope of the acquaintance of the parents and educators with the control and supervision of the supply and distribution of foodstuff. (P=0/025) Nevertheless, the extent of the hygiene experts’ supervision on the supply of nutritive substances at the buffets was 14.5%, which is conceived to be rather poor. Conclusion: This study showed that, having a suitable place to present and distribute foodstuff in schools is necessary. Due to students needs to healthy snack in school, the surveillance of teachers and health experts is more important.}, Keywords = {Supervision, Nutritive substances, Primary school children, Nutritional and hygienic Knowledge, Parents and educators, Khorramabad.}, volume = {12}, Number = {3}, pages = {79-87}, publisher = {Lorestan University of Medical Sciences}, url = {http://yafte.lums.ac.ir/article-1-339-en.html}, eprint = {http://yafte.lums.ac.ir/article-1-339-en.pdf}, journal = {Yafteh}, issn = {1563-0773}, eissn = {2981-0779}, year = {2011} }
