There are a number of medicinal combinations in the Iranian traditional medicine which are
commonly used as tonic for liver. In this review, we have introduced some medicinal plants
that are used mainly for the treatment of liver disorders in Iranian folk medicine, with focus on
their hepatoprotective effects particularly against CC14 agent. In this study, online databases
including Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, and Science Direct were searched for papers
published from January 1970 to December 2013. Search terms consisted of medicinal plants,
traditional medicine, folk medicine, hepatoprotective, Iran, liver, therapeutic uses, compounds,
antioxidant, CC14, anti-inflammatory, and antihepatotoxic, hepatitis, alone or in combination.
Allium hirtifolium Boiss., Apium graveolens L., Cynara scolymus, Berberis vulgaris L.,
Calendula officinalis, Nigella sativa L., Taraxacum officinale, Tragopogon porrifolius,
Prangos ferulacea L., Allium sativum, Marrubium vulgare, Ammi majus L., Citrullus lanatus
Thunb, Agrimonia eupatoria L. and Prunus armeniaca L. are some of the medicinal plants
that have been used for the treatment of liver disorders in Iranian folk medicine. Out of
several leads obtained from plants containing potential hepatoprotective agents, silymarin,
β-sitosterol, betalain, neoandrographolide, phyllanthin, andrographolide, curcumin, picroside,
hypophyllanthin, kutkoside, and glycyrrhizin have been demonstrated to have potent
hepatoprotective properties. Despite encouraging data on possibility of new discoveries in the
near future, the evidence on treating viral hepatitis or other chronic liver diseases by herbal
medications is not adequate.

In this study, the genetic relatedness of 15 walnut accessions adapted to the Lahijan
region of Guilan province, Iran was analyzed by morphological characters. The traits
like growth habit, leafing date, content of male flower, nut yield, nut weight, kernel
weight, kernel percent, hard shell thickness, nut length, and nut thickness. The coefficient
of genetic diversity obtained for nut yield was high, indicating high diversity of the
samples under study for this trait. The association and correlation between the traits
in most cases were significant at α=0.01 and α=0.05. Simple correlation analysis
showed that nut yield had significant and positive correlation with weight of the nut, the
weight and the length of the kernel and the thickness of hard shell (r= 0.762, 0.758,
0.558, respectively). Also, the association between nut yield and hard shell thickness
was negative and significant (r=-0.741). Genetic diversity was assessed between and
within accessions using statistical analyses including Coefficients of Variation (CV),
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA). The
results obtained from cluster analysis placed the accessions in three separate groups.
Principal component analysis indicated that the first and second components explained
69.6% of all variance. This grouping was completely consistent with cluster analysis. In
addition, the results indicated high diversity based on the morphologic indices, which
requires greater, closer attention to the region’s native walnuts for subsequent breeding
programmes

As we know, many researches have shown positive reaction face to various disorders which have been aiming its location in the health programming. A rising tide of tick-borne spirochete, ricketsial, and viral infectious diseases are causing substantial misery around the world. In this paper, the terms such as tick-bone, disorder, herbs, traditional medicine, and curing the tick-bone disorder, both separately and combined, were utilized in order to search in the databases of Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, Islamic World Science Citation Center, and Magiran, and then relevant articles were detected. Duplicate articles and articles in non-English languages were excluded from this analysis.) which are locally applied around the world. Subsequently, some characteristics like used parts, properties and human or animal effectiveness were demonstrated separately. As we referred to some issues concerning this subject, and considering an overview to face or treat this disorder, prevention is the best strategy. It is highly recommended to take precautionary measures, including refraining from having any contact with ticks.

The word corona means "crown," and when examined clearly, the round virus has a "crown" of proteins called peplomers jutting out from its center in every direction. This paper looks at the cause, effects of COVID19 and treatment. Also, comparing with similar forms of this virus and possible means of transfer, symptoms were distinguished and preventive methods such as hand washing, touching of surfaces, being calm, avoid panic, personal hygiene, etc. This paper made clear insight into previous studies and hope which were and are been proved by some acceptable sources. The paper suggests some procedures for controlling and having a united whole management to inhibit the pandemic issue.

Many researches have proved that medicinal plants and herbal extracts can aim to repel the several types of ticks. In this review paper, the terms such as tick-bone, disease, medicinal plants, traditional medicine, and treatment of tick-bone disease, both separately and combined, were used to search in the databases of Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, Islamic World Science Citation Center, and Magiran and the relevant articles were detected. Duplicate articles and the article in non-English languages were excluded from analysis. We found 14 potential herbs (Cissus grandifolia, Commiphora spp., Ficus sycomorous, Acacia drepanolobium, Adansonia digitata, Acacia nubica, Terminalia brownie, Dicrostachys cinerea, Dalbergia melanoxylon, Kigelia Africana, Terminalia brownie, Sisala agave. Salvadora persica, Sisala agave) which were used traditionally around the world. Then some features like Parts used, preparation, dosage, and effectiveness were shown separately.

The pointed feature of the traditional Iranian medicinal system, Ayurveda, is its emphasis on the maintenance of positive health effects of them. As per Ayurveda, Iranian medicinal plants are rich sources of substances that have several therapeutic features including cardio-protection. Globally, cardiovascular disorders are a leading cause of mortality. This review deals with some medicinal plants which possess cardio tonic, cardio protective and antioxidant or positive effects on heart such

Increased concentrations of heavy metals in the air, soil, or water threatens human health both directly and indirectly via accumulation in the food chain. In countries with high ecological awareness the risk of acute exposure has been minimized thanks to the enforcement of restoration laws and policies. This paper presents results of chemical
analysis of soil samples to total content of Pb, Ni, Cr and Cu. Samples were collected at site of Roodsar, at two depths in November 2019th year. These heavy metals were analyzed using three methods of sample preparation. Method of sample preparation, which defines the standard ISO 11047:2000 proved to be best. Results show that content of these heavy metals exceeding limit values. Analyses were done on device,
Atomic Absorption.
