Materials & Methods: In a cross sectional study , subjects were selected based on a systematic random sampling to investigate the incidence of the ocular complications and factors influencing like wise age, sex, type of diabet, job, education, blood triglyceride (TG) and cholesterol level, Family history of diabetes, history of hypertension, history of participation in educational classes, method of treatment, duration of diabetes and fasting blood sugar were considered.
Results: Ocular complications were found among 229 diabetic patients (32.6%). Ocular complications of type II diabetic patients than in patients with type I diabetes (P<0. 005). Factors such as job(P=0. 022), history of participation in educational classes(P<0. 001), education(P<0. 001), Family history of diabetes(P<0. 001), blood triglyceride (TG) (P=0. 021), duration of diabetes(P<0. 001),age (P<0. 001), method of treatment(P<0. 001)and fasting blood sugar (P<0. 001) had a significant relationship with the occurrence of ocular complication. But other risk factors such as hypertension, gender and cholesterol levels were not statistically significant relationship with the occurrence of ocular complication.
Conclusion: Given the prevalence of ocular complications, continuing education on the disease of diabetes complications, it can have a role in reducing the occurrence of ocular complications.

Abstract
Background & Objective: Suicide is the act of
injuring oneself in order to destruct one’s life. One of the
worst ways to attempt suicide, especially in eastern countries, is self-
burning. This study aimed to show the frequency of self- burning and its
relationship with social and demographic status.
Materials & Methods: In this
cross-sectional study, all medical records of patients who admitted to
Ghotbeddin E Shirazi hospital for burns during the years 2006 and 2011 were
collected. The data were analyzed by SPSS-16 software, descriptive statistical
methods and chi-square tests.
Results: The results showed
that from 2071 cases of burn patients admitted to Ghotbeddin E Shirazi
Hospital, 439 cases (21.1%) have been caused by self-immolation. The proportion
of self-immolation among women was 70.7%, in married was 58.4%, and in rural
population was 56.6%. It was most prevalent in the age group of 25-44 years old
(47.4%). In most cases, self-immolation was occurred with flammable liquids
especially oil and gasoline (71.8% and 17.3%, respectively) and at home
(90/8%). 67.8% of cases lead to death. (Case-fatality rate was 67.8%). The most
cause of self-immolation attempting was family disputes.
Conclusion: High self-immolation
rate in females and the age group of adolescents and youth is significant which
should be considered as an important issue in terms of health.

Abstract
Background & Objective: Today in the world, environmental pollution due to heavy metals, their accumulation in the food chain and their dietary exposure are considered as a serious danger. The purpose of this study was to measure the amount of nickel, arsenic, lead, zinc and cadmium in liver, thigh, breast and gizzard parts of chicken distributed in Shiraz.
Materials & Methods: In this cross-sectional study, ten different brands of liver, thigh, breast and gizzard of chicken in Shiraz were collected from local markets and transferred to the laboratory with the cooling system. The concentration of heavy metals was measured by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES).
Results: The mean concentrations of arsenic, cadmium, nickel, lead and zinc in liver tissues were 0.017, 0.061, 0.031, 0.057 and 15.15 µg/kg, in thigh muscles 5, 6, 28, 46 and 3310 µg/kg, in the breast muscles were 6, 8, 180, 50 and 4510 µg/kg and in the gizzard were 7, 29, 9, 19 and 12810 µg/kg, respectively. Heavy metals concentration was higher in liver tissue than other tissues.
Conclusion: The results indicated that the amount of heavy metals studied in chicken tissues are lower than world regulation standards. Also the results of risk assessment indicated that non-carcinogenic risk of these heavy metals due to chicken consumption is negligible while, the risk of carcinogenicity in the case of arsenic is higher compared to lead (relatively potential risk).
