Introduction: prevalence of Covid-19 virus affected the participation of the elderly in physical because them at home. This study aimed was to investigate the effect of eight weeks web-based aerobic exercise on working memory in older women. Materials and Methods: This study was quasi-experimental study. The statistical population in this study was all elderly women in Kermanshah, Iran. Thirty inactive elderly women who participated in the research voluntarily were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. Before the start of the training protocol Participants' working memory were measured using the N-Back test. The experimental group performed their exercises, which included web-based aerobic exercises for eight weeks and three sessions per week. To test the research hypotheses analysis of covariance was used in SPSS 23 software. Results: The results showed that web-based aerobic exercise had a significant effect on working memory of Kermanshah elderly women. Conclusion: Using web-based aerobic exercises can improve working memory in older women. Therefore, due to the limitations of movement caused by the Covid-19 pandemic and importance of the elderly being active for maintain cognitive health, it is recommended that the elderly use the web-based aerobic exercise.

1. Spinal Cord Injuries 2. Celland Tissue-Based Therapy 3. Stem Cells Introduction: The most common causes of brain and spinal cord injuries are accidents, falls, sports injuries, and trauma, which can lead to sensory and motor function deficits. Enormous efforts have been made to use stem cells to repair and prevent the development of complications caused by damage to the central nervous system. The main challenge in this field is to select the right stem cells to replace the lost nerve cells and prevent processes that disrupt the function of stem cells. In this review article, current information on various stem cells used in the treatment of damage to the nervous system, the possible mechanisms of their functions have been discussed. Furthermore, advantages and disadvantages of stem cell therapy are described based on the findings of basic and clinical studies. The high cost of stem cell therapy and unwanted side effects are major challenges in using stem cell therapy to repair the nervous system. Thus, more investigations are required to optimize cell therapy approaches in clinical settings. Conclusion: The existence of different types of stem cells with diverse capabilities and solving existing problems can increase the hope of using of stem cell therapy to treat damage to the nervous system.m ABSTRACT Article Info:

The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating role of dimensions of spiritual intelligence in the relationship between mindfulness and expressed emotion in the caregivers of epileptic patients. Materials and Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study. The study sample consisted of 90 epileptic patients and their caregivers that were selected by convenience sampling method and responded to the expressed emotion, Kentucky Mindfulness Skills, and Spiritual Intelligence questionnaires. The hypothesis of the research was investigated by hierarchical regression analysis using the proposed steps of Baron and Kenny. Results: The hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed that in the first step, mindfulness (beta=-0.39) can predict expressed emotion. In the second step, mindfulness (beta=-0.28) and only the ability to deal with problems dimension of spiritual intelligence (beta=-0.27) predict expressed emotion. Due to the decrease of the beta value of mindfulness in the second stage compared to the first stage, the partial mediating role of the ability to deal with problems in the relationship between mindfulness and the expressed emotion is confirmed. Conclusion: Mindfulness is associated with the expressed emotion of caregivers of patients with epilepsy, and the ability to deal with problems as one of the dimensions of spiritual intelligence plays a mediating role. Therefore, it is suggested to pay more attention to psychological training in promoting the mindfulness and spiritual intelligence of caregivers of epileptic patients.s

1. COVID-19 2. Physical Dis tancing 3. Quarantine Introduction: Covid-19 pandemic has created a worldwide emergency that poses a devas tating threat to mental health, economic, and social indicators. Social dis tancing and quarantine have seriously damaged social relations. The quarantine can lead to socio-economic problems, such as long-term unemployment, job losses, and declining family incomes in many countries. Declining social relations and changing economic conditions can lead to serious crises, particularly psychological issues, in metropolitan areas. Hence, it is necessary to look at these aspects that have received less attention. Materials and Methods: In this s tudy, the socio-economic aspects of COVID-19 disease in Tehran collected from 200,000 citizens based on qualitative indicators in the form of a ques tionnaire, and then the data were analyzed. Results: The results of this project showed that people’s responses are very different depending on the type of job (private, government, informal, and self-employment). The type of employment relationship is decisive in answering ques tions, such as job loss during and after the corona pandemics, living standards, and reduced cos ts of luxury goods. Conclusion: In order to reduce the social risks, non-governmental organizations and the government should prepare and implement programs to ensure job security, create a desire to save, produce s tructured job opportunities, and develop skills.s ABSTRACT Article Info:

Introduction: may exert positive effects on the function of the central nervous sys tem. The aim of the present s tudy was to inves tigate the effect of RJ on depression and anxiety in trimethyltin (TMT)-induced Alzheimer’s disease (AD) model in rats. Materials and Methods: 32 rats were randomly divided into four groups; healthy (HC), AD, sham (SH), and RJ-treated. Forced Swimming Tes t (FST) for depression and Elevated Plus-Maze (EPM) for anxiety assessment were performed. Gene expression in the samples was measured using Real-Time PCR. Results: The dependent variable of immobility significantly increased in the AD group compared to the HC and RJ groups. Furthermore, the SH group has shown greater immobility than the HC group. The antioxidant indexes of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase were significantly greater in the RJ group compared to the SH and AD groups. These indexes were also higher in the HC group than in the SH and AD groups. The RJ and HC groups exhibited a significant reduction in anxiety behaviours compared to the other groups. Conclusion: RJ supplementation has the ability to modulate the mood in the TMT model of AD in rats and may exert beneficial effects in the treatment of AD.

1. Seizures 2. Electroencephalography 3. Passive Cutaneous Anaphylaxis Introduction: Electroencephalography (EEG) is the mos t commonly used method to s tudy the function of the brain. This s tudy represents a computerized model for dis tinguishing between epileptic and healthy subjects using EEG signals with relatively high accuracy. Materials and Methods: The EEG database used in this s tudy was obtained from the data available in Andrzejak. This dataset consis ts of 5 EEG sets (designated as A to E), each containing 100 EEG sections. Collections A and B comprised EEG signals that have been taken from 5 healthy volunteers. The C and D sets referred to EEGs from patients with focal epilepsy (without ictal recordings) and the E set was derived from a patient with ictal recording. Support vector machines were used after applying principal components analysis or linear discriminant analysis over the features of the signals. MATLAB has been used to implement and tes t the proposed classification algorithm. To evaluate the proposed method, the confusion matrix, overall success rate, ROC, and the AUC of each class were extracted. K-fold cross-validation technique was used to validate the results. Results: The overall success rate achieved in this s tudy was above 82%. Dimension reduction algorithms can improve its accuracy and speed. Conclusion: It is helpful to be able to predict the occurrence of a seizure early and accurately. Using the computerized model represented in this s tudy could accomplish this goal.l ABSTRACT Article Info:
