The high incidence and poor prognosis of the lung cancer makes it a major health priblem in the last few decades. Determination of frequency of different histopathologic types of primary lung cancer has great importance in creating integrated treatment programs and to recognize the effective factors causing the disease. Specially there is not enough information about this subjects in Iran. This study has been designed to fulfill the above requirements. This is an observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study and explanation using a sample volume of 384 patients. Used Sampling method was a multistage one. At first, Tehran was divided into 5 areas. After that one hospital was chosen in each area. Finally, samples are related to years 1991-1998 from these hospitals (Emam Khomainie, Hazrat Rasul-e Akram, Firoozgar, Labbafeenejad, Massih Daneshvari and Haft-e Tir) were collected.   From 384 samples, 77.1% were male and 22.9% were famale. The average age of those suffering, ranged from 63.01 ± 1.34 years so most of those suffering were in their 7 th decade of life. From them 57% were cigarette smokers and 13.22% were opioid users. In the smokers group, the averge cigarette consumption were 32.13 ± 3.6 packs per year and this would be increased with age. The most common type of malignancy were as following: squamous cell carcinoma (51.6%), adnocarcinoma (16.4%), small cell carcinoma (14.3%), large cell carcinoma, carcinoid tumor, bronchial gland carcinoma and adensquamous carcinoma. There was a meaningful relationship between smoking habit and incidence of SCC and adnocarcinoma (P=0.000). There was also a meaningful relationship between sex and type of malignancy (P=0.000). The most common signs, were cough, dyspnea, hemoptysis and chest pain.   As there are frequent types of malignant lung cancer, the results are considerably different from those are obtained from other countries. This difference has been confirmed by other similar studies carried out in the country. This suggest that the probability of these difference is related to different risk factors in our country from others. These finding makes obligate us to have effective plan for recognition of them for prevention purposes.}, Keywords = {1) Primary Lung Neoplasm 2) Histopathology 3) Epidemiology}, volume = {8}, Number = {26}, pages = {373-379}, publisher = {Iran University of Medical Sciences}, url = {http://rjms.iums.ac.ir/article-1-368-en.html}, eprint = {http://rjms.iums.ac.ir/article-1-368-en.pdf}, journal = {Razi Journal of Medical Sciences}, issn = {2228-7043}, eissn = {2228-7051}, year = {2002} } @article{ author = {Ansari, SH and Vossough, P and Taee, N}, title = {SECOND MALIGNANCY IN PATIENTS WITH HODGKIN DISEASE TREATED IN HAZRAT ALI ASGHAR HOSPITAL}, abstract ={  Hodgkin’s disease is one of the most common childhood malignancies that with correct diagnosis and effective treatment is curable and without treatment is leading to death.  The survival of patients with Hodgkin’s disease has dramatically improved over the past 30 years because of advances in treatment.  However, concern for the risk of long tern complications has resulted in a number of trials to evaluate reduction of therapy. Causes of second malignancy are related to therapies (radiotherapy-chemotherapy-radiotherapy with chemotherapy), age of patients in the first treatment, sex and immunological deficits associated with Hodgkin’s disease. Two third of second malignancies are solid tumors and 1/3 are hematologic and lymphatic system cancer.  In patients that treated first with radiotherapy, solid tumors appears higher and in patients treated first with chemotherapy leukemia appears higher. With this reuslts in childhood malignancies radiotherapy sholud be reduced and when patients treated with chemotherapy the cycles of treatment should be reduced too, and all patients should have follow up for second malignancy for several years. In 228 patients with Hodgkin’s disease in ten years in Hazrat Ali-Asghar Hospital, 4 second malignancies were occurred.  Three cases presented with solid tumor and one case with leukemia (AML). Three cases that first treated with radiotherapy after 8, 18 and 19 years later (respectively) presented with solid tumor, one case died from brain tumor and two cases presented with thyroid cancer, had thyroidectomy and are alive. One case after 6 years of repeated chemotherapy for recurrent disease developed leukemia and finally died.

No different results were seen between sex. Group D Streptococcus(GDS) in 60% (mean age=4.069years), Group A Streptococcus(GAS) in 32.5% (mean age=4.098years), S.pneumonia in 2.5% (mean age=4.5years), H.inf in 0.6% (mean age=2years) of children were isolated. All of S.pneumonia were resistant to Penicillin and Ampicillin, but all of them were sensitive to Erythromycin, Co-trimoxazol, Chloramphenicol, Cephalothin, Ciprofloxacin and Vancomycin. Probably, S.pneumonia which colonized these child was not highly resistant to penicillin but was intermediate resistant.}, Keywords = {1) Streptococcus 2) Nasopharyngeal Colonization 3) Penicillin resistant pneumococcus }, volume = {8}, Number = {26}, pages = {472-478}, publisher = {Iran University of Medical Sciences}, url = {http://rjms.iums.ac.ir/article-1-362-en.html}, eprint = {http://rjms.iums.ac.ir/article-1-362-en.pdf}, journal = {Razi Journal of Medical Sciences}, issn = {2228-7043}, eissn = {2228-7051}, year = {2002} } @article{ author = {Homayounfar, H and Zarindast, M.R and JamalyRaeoufy, N}, title = {EFFECT OF ADENOSINE RECEPTOR AGONIST AND ANTAGONIST ON NICOTINE INDUCED ANTINOCICEPTION IN MICE}, abstract ={In this study analgesia induced by different dosages of nicotine was examined on mice. Nicotine with different dosages (0.1, 0.01, 0.001 mg/kg) was injected by intraperitoneal manner. Formalin test was then performed after ten minutes. Nicotine caused both acute and chronic phase analgesia with all dosages. We used, but the most analgesic dose was 0.1 mg/kg. Theophyline is an adenosin receptor antagonist, wich induces analgesia with low dasages (5, 10, 20 mg/kg) but not at higher dasages (40, 50 mg/kg). On the other hand, theophyline reduces the level of analgesia induced by nicotine. Furthermore NECA, an adenosine receptor agonist, causes not only analgesia, but also augments the analgesic effect of nicotine. Thus, we concluded that adenosine has some roles on analgesic effects of nicotine.}, Keywords = {1) Analgesia 2) Nicotine 3) Theophyline 4) NECA 5) Formaline test}, volume = {8}, Number = {26}, pages = {480-486}, publisher = {Iran University of Medical Sciences}, url = {http://rjms.iums.ac.ir/article-1-367-en.html}, eprint = {http://rjms.iums.ac.ir/article-1-367-en.pdf}, journal = {Razi Journal of Medical Sciences}, issn = {2228-7043}, eissn = {2228-7051}, year = {2002} }
