Abstract
Background: Studies show that antioxidants are beneficial for male infertility. Considering that sesame seed contains several important antioxidants, this study was designed to examine the effect of a sesame seed regimen on the testicular structure and sex hormones in adult rats. Materials and Methods: This experimental study was conducted on 30 adult male Wistar rats (200 g) prepared from Physiology Research Center at Kashan University of Medical Sciences. Rats were randomly divided into the experimental and control groups. The control group received the standard regimen, while the experimental group received a special regimen (70% standard food+30% sesame seed) after weaning for 12 weeks. At the end of the study, the weight and volume of the testis and seminiferous tubules, the lumen epithelium diameter, LH, FSH and testosterone levels were evaluated. Results: No significant difference was found between the two groups in body weight, the weight and volume of the testis and the volume percentage of vessels in seminiferous tubules, while the mean number and motility of sperms in epididymis, the number and volume percentage of epithelial cells, lumen and interstitial space as well as the diameters of the tubules were significantly different in the experimental compared to the control group (P<0.0001). Moreover, there was a significant difference between the two groups in LH level (P=0.03). Conclusion: Sesame seed intake improves the testicular parameters, fertility and sperm production in male rats.

Abstract
Background: The pulsed output of the 308 nm XeCl laser and its photoablation action rather than photothermal action offers the ability to remove dental hard tissues with minimal generation of heat in the tissue.
Materials and Methods: A total of 20 human molar teeth (ten teeth used as enamel samples and ten teeth used as dentin samples after removing the enamel tissue from their crowns) were irradiated by the laser. The crown of each sample was regarded as a cube which its lateral sides were exposed in 2Hz frequency without water cooling. Also, 18 holes for all enamel samples and 18 holes for all dentin samples were obtained. Three different amounts of energy were selected as a variable factor with 6 different numbers of pulses in each energy. The images of these holes were prepared by optic and computer combining, and the amounts of the ablation depth and effective ablation area were calculated using the MATLAB software.
Results: The amounts of ablation depth were increased with increasing the number of pulses for both enamel and dentin tissues. The amounts of ablation depth were also increased with increasing the amounts of energy for both enamel and dentin tissues. The greater amounts of ablation depth and effective ablation area were observed in the dentin tissue rather than the enamel tissue. The borders of created holes were reported sharp and clear.
Conclusion: The application of the XeCl laser for hard tissue removal and cavity preparation can be possible after some certain modifications.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Acute injuries are among the most common reasons for pediatric emergency department visits. This study aimed to determine the types of acute injuries among children visiting the pediatric emergency department of Shahid Beheshti Hospital, Kashan, in 2019.
Methods: In this retrospective cross-sectional study, data on acute injuries in children under 15 years old who were referred to the pediatric emergency department of Kashan Shahid Beheshti Hospital in 2019 were collected. The main complaints investigated included accidents, falls, burns, electric shock, foreign body injuries, drowning, blunt trauma, bites, and poisoning. The outcomes assessed included complete recovery, partial recovery, disability, and mortality. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS version 26.
Results: The most common acute injuries in children were, respectively, accidents, falls, and poisoning. Most pediatric patients were triaged at level 3, indicating non-urgent injuries. Moreover, 34.72% of the patients were triaged at level 2, and 3.96% at level 1. The lowest number of injuries was recorded among children aged 0-1 year. In this study, 821 children were urban residents and 190 were rural residents. Surgery, suturing, and supportive care were the most common treatments provided.
Conclusion: Understanding the mechanisms of injury and the epidemiology of acute injuries in children, considering the potential complications, will have a positive impact on the quality of management and provision of facilities in the pediatric department.
