of university independence, leadership independence had the most impact with R2=0.942 and path coefficient=0.971. Discussion & Conclusion: Based on the path coefficients, a factor load of 0.644 was established between the two variables of policy-making and university autonomy which was above average and, therefore, significant. Moreover, since the t-statistic value of 16.247 was established out of the (-2.58, 2.58) range, it can be concluded that the relationship between policy-making and university autonomy in macro medical universities in region 3 was positive and meaningful.

The comparison of the two treatment models showed that Benson’s relaxation exercises could reduce patients’ perceived stress and anxiety more effectively. However, emotion regulation training based on the Gross model has been more effective in increasing patients’ resilience than Benson’s relaxation exercises. the model and muscle relaxation exercises can be used as an effective intervention to complement medical treatment and improve patients' general health.

In the histomorphometric examination of the non-glandular part, only the thickness of the mucosa had a significant difference in the group receiving the highest dose of aspartame compared to the control group (P<0.05). However, in the evaluation of the glandular part, mucosal and muscle thickness in all three experimental groups and the submucosa thickness in the glandular and non-glandular parts in the experimental group (400 mg body weight) showed a significant increase compared to the control group (P<0.05). Moreover, the depth of gastric pits increased significantly and the frequency of parietal cells had a significant decrease in the experimental groups compared to the control group (P<0.05). Discussion & Conclusion: Although aspartame may partially play a protective role by decreasing parietal cells, it should be noted that higher doses of aspartame could induce tissue changes in different layers of the stomach. Therefore, it is recommended to use it with more caution.

Introduction: During exercise, angiogenesis occurs in active skeletal muscle; however, little is known about potential mechanisms for improving this adaptation. This study aimed to investigate a period of interval training on chemokine gene expression and its effect on vascular endothelial growth factors in male adult rats. Material & Methods: In this study , 24 rats were divided into three groups (n=8 in each): high-intensity training (HIT), low-intensity training (LIT), and control groups. HIT and LIT groups were trained for eight weeks (five days per week). The exercise program in the HIT group consisted of running on a treadmill for 8 min with 85-90% VO2max intensity and 2 min with 50-60% VO2max intensity. The LIT group exercise program consisted of running on a treadmill for 8 min with 55-60% VO2max intensity and 2 min with 45-50% VO2max intensity. The control group had no training. The expression of chemokine and vascular endothelial growth factor genes was measured in soleus muscle . The data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc test. Statistical differences were considered significant at P<0.05. (Ethic code: 141/370299) Findings: The results of this study, showed that the expression levels of chemokine and vascular endothelial growth factor gene in the HIT group were significantly higher than that in the control group (P=0.01, P=0.04), while the levels of chemokine and vascular endothelial growth factor in the LIT group were not significantly different from those in the control group (P=0.2, P=0.1). Discussion & Conclusion: According to the results of the present study, it seems that high-intensity exercises can be more effective than low-intensity exercises in increasing angiogenesis caused by the increase of chemokine that in turn depends on vascular endothelial growth factor levels.

the Asteraceae medicinal properties, its essential for the treatment of dry coughs and of the mouth, throat, and respiratory tract. This study aimed to assess some phytochemical characteristics of Tussilago farfara L. and compare changes in this plant at different altitudes. Material & Methods: To investigate the changes in the amount of the effective substance of the studied plant in the altitude gradient, altitude classes of 1100-2600 meters were considered in Golestan province, Iran, considering the presence and abundance of the species. In each phenological stage (before and after flowering time), plant samples were randomly collected in each altitude class and transferred to the laboratory. Total phenol content and flavonoid content were measured using the Folin-Ciocalteu and aluminum chloride methods, respectively. The antioxidant activity of the methanolic extract was also evaluated using the DPPH (2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) reagent. Findings: The results showed that the highest amounts of total phenol content, flavonoids, and antioxidant activity were observed at altitudes above 2200 meters, and there was a significant difference in plants (Tussilago farfara L.) grown in different altitudes in terms of phytochemical properties. Based on the comparison of phytochemical properties of this plant in different phenological stages, the highest content of total phenol and flavonoids were observed in the phonological stage of flowering and the highest (42.08%) antioxidant activity of leaves was observed in the vegetative stage. Discussion & Conclusion: The results of this study can help activists in the field of medicinal plants to determine the appropriate height range and phenological stage in harvesting the leaves of this plant to achieve the highest levels of phenol content, antioxidant activity.
