Soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr is one of the most important oilseed plants in the world and Phythophthora root and crown rot is a significant limiting factor for its planting. In the present study the antagonistic effect of 12 Trichoderma spp. in vitro and these Trichoderma spp. in combination with Bradyrhizobium japonicum in vivo on Phytophthora sojae and soybean growth were tested. In laboratory tests the effects of Trichoderma isolates were studied in dual culture, volatile compounds and culture filtrate metabolites. The most hyphal growth inhibitions were obtained using T. virens, T. orientals and T. brevicompactum in dual culture tests and T. atroviride in volatile compounds test. The effects of Trichoderma culture filtrates on P. sojae hyphal growth were studied at six concentrations in CMA medium and the results showed that culture filtrates of all species inhibited the hyphal growth and that different concentrations had different inhibitory effects. The most inhibition was obtained by T. virens and T. brevicampactom culture filtrates. The greenhouse tests were carried out as two experiments. In the first experiment the effects of coated seeds with Trichoderma isolates and B. japonicum, alone and in combinations, on control of P. sojae and in the second experiment the effect of these two biocontrol agents on soybean growth, alone and in combinations, were assayed. In the first experiment, germination percentage, damping-off, seedling vigour index (SVI) and disease severity were measured and results showed that T. brevicompactum as alone and in combinations, was the most effective species. In the second experiment, coated seeds with Trichoderma isolates and B. japonicum, as alone and in combinations, significantly promoted the growth of treated seeds and the most effective species were T. orientals, T. brevicompactum and T. spirale. Hence, results indicate that T. brevicompactum, as the second most common species after T. harzianum in Iran, was the most successful species applied individually and in combinations with B. japonicum to act as biocontrol agent for P. sojae and was also able to promote plant growth.

Aim: Effective communication has a key role in nursing profession. Furthermore, controlling emotions as a part of communication skills has an important role in initiating and maintaining healthy social communications. The meaning of emotional intelligence is also effected considerably by the importance of this aspect of social communications. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of emotional intelligence training on the communication skills of final-year nursing students of Islamic Azad University, Isfahan branch (Khorasgan) in 2014. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was done with semester 7 and 8 undergraduate (nursing) 77 students. Data were collected by Bar-On Emotional Intelligence Test and Queen-Dom Communication Skills Test. Initially, the questionnaires were completed by the students; then the emotional intelligence workshop was held in 6 sessions’ each took 45 minutes. After a month, again both questionnaires were completed by the students. Analysis of results was performed by descriptive statistics (frequency, mean, middle and standard deviation) and analytic statistics (Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Wilcoxon and Spearman correlation coefficient) in the SPSS software (version 19). Findings: Difference of communication skills’ scores before and after the intervention had a significant level (p=0.001), and the scores increased after the intervention significantly. Conclusion: Emotional intelligence training has a positive impact on communication skills of nursing students. So holding emotional intelligence workshops in one of the university alternatively annually for nursing students is recommended.

Aims: COVID-19 has affected a worldwide population, causing more than a million deaths from the end of 2019 until now; so the aim of this study was to determine the symptoms of COVID-19 in the Iranian population through a teleconsultation-based service to better deal with it.
Instrument & Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study that included 12125 individuals calling for COVID-19 screening and consultation from 2 March 2020 to 19 April 2020 with the census method. A telephone number was assigned for consultation with more than 70 nurses responding to first-level questions and more than 30 medical doctors responding to second-level questions. For statistical analysis, a chi-squared test and univariate logistic regression with SPSS 25 were used.
Finding: Cough was the most common complaint (41.3%), followed by shortness of breath (32.8%), and fever (31.5%). Confusion was the least common complaint (1.6%). Binary logistic regression revealed that men were at a higher risk of COVID-19 compared to women (OR:1.31, 95% CI 1.10-1.55, p=0.002). In addition, older age was a risk factor for COVID-19 (OR:1.02, 95% CI 1.02-1.03, p<0.001). Also, significant positive correlations were found between fever, chills, sore throat, shortness of breath, cough, body ache, and gastrointestinal symptoms with COVID-19 even after adjustment for gender and age.
Conclusion: Fever, cough, and shortness of breath were the most common complaints in individuals calling for COVID-19 teleconsultation. It’s suggested that in times of crisis, such as the Covid-19 pandemic, remote sensing can be done to raise public awareness and break the transmission chain.

Aims: Present study aimed to investigate the exposure of the population covered by Iranian health insurance to the catastrophic cost of health.
Instrument & Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on household income expenditure data. The sample included 20,764 households. The model of the World Health Organization was employed to measure the catastrophic cost of health. Data were analyzed by Stata 14.
Findings: From the total sample studied, 4.89% of households were faced with a catastrophic cost of health. The findings show that female-headed households are more likely to incur catastrophic costs. Some levels of education of the head of the household reduced the likelihood of incurring a catastrophic cost. Unemployed households and other occupations were significantly more costly. The results of the analysis also indicated that using dental services has a positive and significant effect on households facing catastrophic health costs. The chances of facing the catastrophic cost of health in the fourth, fifth, and sixth decades were significantly higher than those of other income decades.
Conclusion: The results of the study showed that Iran's health insurance coverage has not been able to fully protect the insured from the catastrophic costs of health. Improving the livelihood of the community along with paying special attention to vulnerable families and patients with special diseases will play an important role in reducing this index in the insured of the Iranian Health Insurance Organization.

Objective: Osteon has been introduced as a bone substitute material. It is biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) that use in dentistry. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of osteon on the proliferation, cell viability and differentiation of saos-2 cells in vitro. Also it was compared with cerasorb bone graft. Materials and Methods: Two different bone grafts materials, osteon and cerasorb, were used to evaluate the effect on proliferation and differentiation rate of saos-2 cells. On day 15 the cell proliferation and cell viability was measured by MTT assay. For determination of differentiation, alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red test was used. Results: Osteon and cerasorb groups showed significantly higher alkaline phosphatase activity and cell differentiation. Cell viability of both bone grafts was significantly lower than control group and cell proliferation was higher in osteon group. Osteon has more suitable biological property compare to cerasorb. Conclusions: The results of the present study showed that osteon and cersorb bone grafts allow proliferation and differentiation of saos-2 cells in vitro.

A study was conducted to determine suitable soil properties as soil quality indicators, using factor analysis in order to evaluate the effects of land use change on loessial hillslope soils of the Shastkola District in Golestan Province, northern Iran. To this end, forty surface soil (0-30 cm) samples were collected from four adjacent sites with the following land uses systems: (1) natural forest, (2) cultivated land, (3) land reforested with olive, and (4) land reforested with Cupressus. Fourteen soil chemical, physical, and biological properties were measured. Factor analysis (FA) revealed that mean weight diameter (MWD), water stable aggregates (WSA), soil organic matter (SOM), and total nitrogen (TN) were suitable for assessing the soil quality in the given ecosystem for monitoring the land use change effects. The results of analysis of variance (ANOVA) and mean comparison showed that there were significant (P< 0.01) differences among the four treatments with regard to SOM, MWD, and sand content. Clearing of the hardwood forest and tillage practices during 40 years led to a decrease in SOM by 71.5%. Cultivation of the deforested land decreased MWD by 52% and increased sand by 252%. The reforestation of degraded land with olive and Cupressus increased SOM by about 49% and 72%, respectively, compared to the cultivated control soil. Reforestation with olive increased MWD by 81% and reforestation with Cupressus increased MWD by 83.6%. The study showed that forest clearing followed by cultivation of the loessial hilly slopes resulted in the decline of the soil quality attributes, while reforestation improved them in the study area.

Marmalade is a processed product of some plant organs such as fruit, flower, fruit peel and tuber in which the plant parts used are small and well homogenized. Sugar is used as a sweetener in the preparation of marmalade. In this study, the use of date syrup as a substitute for sucrose used in marmalade formulation was studied. The constrained mixture design was used to achieve the optimal formulation and the effect of sugar substitution with date palm syrup on properties of marmalade was studied. The ingredients used in the formulation were plum paste (35-65%), sugar syrup (0-65%) and date syrup (0-65%). Ten formulas were produced based on the constrained mixture design and their physical, chemical and sensorial properties were investigated. The results showed that plum paste had the greatest effect on increasing the viscosity and total acidity of marmalade, while total soluble solids decreased with increasing the amount of plum paste in the formulation. The L^* index of the samples decreased with increasing date syrup and plum paste and the redness of marmalade increased with increasing plum paste. Sensory evaluation of the produced formulations showed that the increase in plum paste increased the consistency, spreadability, color and overall acceptance, while the sweetness and taste and flavor were more affected by the increase in date syrup. Optimal formulation was obtained in the ratios of 58% plum paste, 12% sugar syrup and 30% date syrup and in the optimal formulation the total acidity, total phenolic compounds, and viscosity of marmalade at 20 °C were equal to 2.07 g citric acid/100 g, 112.4 mg gallic acid/100 g, and 3961 cp, respectively.

One of the basic characteristics of documentary transactions is the independence of these transactions from the underlying contract and the documentary payment terms in these transactions. The beneficiary of the letter of credit shall present the documents stated in the Letter of Credit or the bank guarantee in order to claim payment. In some cases, the documents presented by the beneficiary are fraudulent while this action might have been committed without cooperation or even the information of the beneficiary by a third party. Whether or not the principle of fraud would be applicable regarding the third party fraudulent actions, two viewpoints have been presented. Many lawyers believe in the view that the fraud principle is also applicable for the third party deceptions, and the payment shall be withheld (it shall be refrained from payment) in this regard. On the other hand, another group believes that the fraud principle is not applicable against the guiltless beneficiary, and the amount in the letter of credit shall be paid. This article will review and analyze the position of legal systems in this respect.

One of the main functions of electronic banking is the transfer of funds as one of the most important means of payment, which is now widely popular for various reasons in the field of commerce. However, the fraud and the issuance of unauthorized payment orders has put the tool in jeopardy. The present article seeks to find an appropriate response to the unauthorized transaction risk allocation and to describe the responsibility of the parties to the transaction in the field of electronic banking, which will use an analytical, descriptive, and logical method to to doing comparative research in the legal system of Iran & US. The results of the research  shows that an unauthorized transaction is performed without the customer's actual or supposed appearance. Additionally, in cases where the transfer is based on the client's security policy, the customer is often assumed to be responsible. The objectives of risk allocation, including loss reduction, motivation, etc., provide a combination of possible risk allocation approaches so that, while accepting the bank's responsibility, limiting the limit for customer liability to prevent customer negligence in maintaining and maintaining access tools and hand codes To be found. The other results of this research are that Iran's legal system in this area is new, and there is a need for comprehensive regulation, and despite the fact that according to the rules of the principle is the responsibility of the bank, it is the responsibility of the customer's which emphasized in the judicial practice.
