- چکیده انگلیسی: The education system has always been closely linked to the development of societies, and in most countries, paying attention to the knowledge-based economy is a priority. Today, due to the increasing demand for education through rapid population growth, families tend to provide their children with a relatively higher education and income than those who are educated than other members of society, as well as enjoying increased social rights and growth. Information and communication technology and its use in everyday life, and most importantly the financial constraints and structural budget deficits in education systems, discuss how to finance education as one of the most serious educational crises worldwide. However, today schools are increasingly turning to funding to address the problem of budget shortages and pressures from the community to provide quality services. As a result, schools are employing different ways and mechanisms to offset this scarcity of financial resources and developing a wide range of innovative and innovative approaches. However, the application of these mechanisms to finance in terms of the quantitative and qualitative status of the educational system, educational levels, economic and social status and many other components can be similarities and differences. In our country, especially in the elementary and secondary levels of government, it is considered to be the most important provider of financial resources. But over the last few years, given the high demand for education, the share of non-governmental resources in this sector has gradually increased, and now a significant share of educational spending is directed at individuals and their families. Since education is one of the most important issues in the lives of many individuals and families, how to finance education is one of the major challenges for applicants (individuals and families). And suppliers (public and non-governmental institutions). Therefore, education needs specific tools and solutions to develop and respond to problems and challenges. Since it has used many solutions in the field of education throughout the history, but the solutions adopted do not have the required efficiency and effectiveness, therefore, solutions should be sought to solve this problem. It was an alternative. Therefore, identifying and resolving school problems in order to achieve educational goals should be addressed by the authorities and researchers, one of which is the lack of financial resources that make them difficult to carry out activities and achieve their desired goals. It has. Since the government funding is not responsive to educational needs and costs and the need to improve the quality of educational services provided by schools has increased, the importance of resolving this problem has doubled. Attracting funds from their schools causes some issues such as parental dissatisfaction, lack of transparency in the use of funds received, as well as the difficulty of deciding on a suitable way to attract funds among other ways, which in turn increases the burden. It is the responsibility of school administrators to increase the likelihood of abuse by some. However, attracting funds from their own schools is one way to supplement the government's funding to provide better quality education for schools. Schools have serious responsibilities in education. They play an important role in the overall development of the country's human capital. Therefore, solving the problems of schools, especially in the field of financing, is one of the goals that should be considered by the authorities and researchers. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to prioritize the factors affecting the financing of schools in Kurdistan province. This research is applied in terms of purpose and is a survey based on the research method. The required data for this study were collected by questionnaire and Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.85. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, 30 variables related to school financing are considered and divided into 3 components. The statistical population of this study consisted of principals and deputy heads of schools in Kurdistan province. The sampling method was random. SPSS software was used for statistical analysis of the data. And by using factor analysis method the research questions have been tested. The results of the research findings show that in the privatization of schools variable use of serious supervision and legal regulation with 0.791 factor loadings had the most impact and the variable of private school management performance with 0.497 factor loadings had the least impact. On school funding. Also, in the discussion of the budget allocated to schools by the government, the amount of privatization proceeds with a factor of 0.817 had the greatest impact on school financing and the variable of the country's trade surplus with a factor of 0.621 had the least effect. It finances the schools. Also in the discussion of parent financial participation, the variable of parental satisfaction with school performance with a factor of 0.763 had the highest impact on school financing and involving families in managing financial problems with a factor of 0.155 had the least effect on school Finance has schools. Consequently, according to the findings of the study, it can be generally stated that the privatization variable of the schools with total variance of 50/183 has the greatest impact on the financing of the schools, then the variable of the budget allocation to the schools by the variance. The total 3636/07 has an impact on school funding, as well as the parents' financial participation with 18/453 has the least impact on school funding. As a result, it is suggested that the Ministry of Education and relevant institutions should prioritize among the factors influencing financing of school privatization to facilitate and improve the school financing process. Future researchers are also suggested to consider these and other factors affecting school financing in other provinces of the country and compare the results with the results of this study. Also, as every research has its limitations, this research has limitations like other researches, including its limitations to the inaccessibility of all schools in Kurdistan province. Lack of receiving all questionnaires indicated that this was a limitation because the results of the survey could not be generalized to all schools in Kurdistan province. Finally, it can be stated that since the statistical population of this study was the only one in the schools in Kurdistan province, the results cannot be generalized to schools in the whole country.

- چکیده انگلیسی: Background:Students are the main customers of the universities. Thus, their perceptions and expectations of the educational quality is of great importance in planning for quality improvement. This study is aimed on evaluating the quality of clinical education in hospitals affiliated with Kerman University of Medical Sciences.
Methods: This is a descriptive-analytical study. Three hundred and three externship, internship and residency students were participated. After validity and reliability tests, the adapted SERVQUAL questionnaire was used for data gathering. The descriptive tests, Kruskal-Wallis test, and paired t-test were used for data analysis in SPSS 18.0.
Results: A negative gap in service quality was observed in all five dimensions. Among externship students, minimum and maximum mean of the quality gap were in assurance (-1) and empathy (-1.28) dimensions, respectively. Among internship students, minimum quality gap was observed in reliability and tangibles dimensions together (-1.09) and maximum quality gap was in responsiveness dimension (-1.36). Among residency students, minimum and maximum quality gap was in tangibles (-1.48) and responsiveness (-2.04), respectively. No significant difference was observed regarding the quality gap among different teaching hospitals (P>0.001). However, there was a significant difference among all students in all dimensions (P<0.001).
Conclusions: Considering the negative gap in all dimensions of educational services, it is recommended to hold courses educating employees on how to better provide education services and effectively communicate with students. Using new educational methods, counselling skills and communicating with students must be considered in workshops for faculty members.- انتشار مقاله: 01-05-1392

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: This study was performed to achieve abortion in a short time and with minimum side effects in a bitch, as an alternative method for termination of unwanted pregnancy. The experimentation was performed on 10 privately owned crossbred pregnant bitches, in their late second trimester of pregnancy, having a variable number of fetuses (3 to 9). Fetal death was induced by transabdominal intracardiac injection of potassium chloride (KCl) into the fetal heart under ultrasonographic guidance. Pregnancy was terminated within 36 to 72 hr (51.60 ±16.04 hr) and none of the patients experienced any side effects or clinical complications. Data presented in this report provided evidence for the possible use of this technique to selectively reduce the number of canine fetuses without terminating the whole pregnancy. Ultrasound-guided induced fetal death is a safe procedure and a viable method for the induction of abortion in a short time and with no apparent side effects.

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Canine osteosarcoma (OS) or osteogenic sarcoma is an aggressive tumor of the skeletal system, associated with a rapid progression and guarded prognosis. The osteosarcomas, mostly arise from the appendicular skeleton while axial OS (osteosarcoma of flat bones) are less reported in the majority of large breeds. This report describes complete para-clinical investigations of an aggressive chondroblastic OS involving facial flat bones with highly metastatic characterization in a large mix breed stray dog. Radiographic and computed tomography findings demonstrated an amorphous and active new bone formation, associated with the severe lytic areas in the left maxillary, orbital and zygomatic bones. Also, lots of nodular densities were distributed in all lung lobes. The cytological examination of the mass revealed individualized oval to spindle-shaped pleomorphic mesenchymal cells exhibiting many criteria of malignancy such as marked anisocytosis, anisokaryosis, prominent and multiple nucleoli. The punctate cytoplasmic vacuoles were obvious and bi-nucleated cells were frequently observed. These cells were seen in the background of an eosinophilic matrix. Histopathologic evaluation of the mass exhibited areas of osseous differentiation within the mass containing bony spicules and wavy bone formation along with the vast areas of cartilaginous differentiations with chondroblasts in lacunar spaces. Ultimately, chondroblastic OS with severe lung metastasis was confirmed and the animal was euthanized.

- چکیده انگلیسی: The objective of this study was to evaluate the pituitary gland dimensions due to age and weight using computed tomography (CT) in dogs and cats. The CT images of pituitary gland were assessed in 11 client-owned dogs (six males and five females; age range, 1 to 9 years) and 15 client-owned cats (eight males and seven females; age range, 1 to 14 years) with no evidence of pituitary diseases. The length, height, width and volume of the pituitary gland were measured in sagittal and transverse planes. Mean pituitary length, width, height and volume (± standard deviation: SD) were respectively 4.96 (± 0.69 mm), 3.62 (± 0.64 mm), 2.62 (± 0.05 mm) and 26.19 (± 7.99 mm3) in cats and were 7.00 (± 2.14 mm), 4.80 (± 1.20 mm), 3.80 (± 0.70 mm) and 77.53 (± 51.64 mm3) in dogs, respectively. Mean pituitary height-to-brain ratio (P:B ratio), (± SD) in cats and dogs was 0.28 (± 0.05) and 0.21 (± 0.03), respectively and mean percent of pituitary volume to brain volume (± SD) in cats and dogs was 0.10 (± 0.05) and 0.10 (± 0.07), respectively. There was no significant correlation between the size of pituitary gland and age, weight and body condition score (BCS) in dogs, however in cats, significant difference was found between height of pituitary gland and weight and BCS, pituitary width and weight and P:B ratio and BCS. These findings could be useful to identify abnormal pituitary gland enlargement in CT images. To be more accurate in the assessments, further studies are required.

- چکیده انگلیسی: The electric arc furnace (EAF) is one of the popular methods of steel production from steel scraps. The plasma arc is used in EAF to generate heat for melting scarp or direct reduced iron (DRI). The liquid metal is drained from the EAF through the tap hole. Nowadays, it is critical to use Automated/robotic tools for opening the tap hole with oxygen lancing. Because many workers have been blinded by spraying molten particles in opening operation. This study was aimed to simulate a robot manipulator with five degrees of freedom designed for opening the tap hole of an electrical arc furnace. The geometrical model of the robot was designed in Solid works software according to the real workplace and its expected path and obstacles. The Newton-Euler approach was employed to derive the dynamic equations and the resultant joint torques. The dynamic model is used to obtain the operating torques of the joints as well as in the simulation using the SimMechanic toolbox in Matlab software. The results of the simulation with SimMechanic show that the control system can follow the desired path of the robot with acceptable accuracy.

- چکیده انگلیسی: BACKGROUND AND AIM: Identifying the factors affecting utilization of dental services is one of the best ways to improve the health status. This study aimed to investigate the effective factors on utilization of dental services.METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, 1185 household heads were selected randomly, and using a researcher-made questionnaire based on World Health Organization (WHO) Global Health Survey and Andersen behavioral model, and through multivariate logistic regression, the predictors of visiting a dentist during 1 year ago were investigated in 2017. The households’ income inequality in utilization of dental services was analyzed using concentration indices (CIs) and Pearson chi2 in STATA software.RESULTS: The predictor of dental visit during 1 year ago for men was having decayed teeth [odds ratio (OR) = 1.3, P = 0.030], and the predictors for women were lower ages (OR = 0.8, P = 0.001 for 19-29 years old and so on), having 32 natural teeth (OR = 0.7, P = 0.020), and employment (OR = 1.3, P = 0.048). The common predictors were increase in education level (OR = 1.4, P = 0.001 for men, and OR = 1.7, P = 0.001 for women with university degree), brushing (OR = 1.9; P = 0.001 for women, and OR = 1.3; P = 0.040 for men), and having supplementary insurance (OR = 1.7, P = 0.001 for men, and OR = 1.9, P = 0.001 for women). Being burdensome of dental care costs during 3 years ago (CI: -0.074, P = 0.001), avoiding visiting a dentist during 1 (CI: -0.501, P = 0.001) and 3 (CI: -0.501, P = 0.001) years ago because of its costs, and failure to do all dentistry recommendations during 3 years ago (CI: -0.516, P = 0.001) happen more frequently among the poor. Moreover, the poor used all dental services such as scaling (CI: -0.638, P = 0.001), filling (CI: -0.458, P = 0.001), and root canal (CI: -0.524, P = 0.001) less than the rich.CONCLUSION: Dental health status is negatively affected by population socio-economic situation; therefore, it is necessary to implement policies to improve access to dental services among the undeserved.

- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: The health systems around the world are facing significant pressure to control the costs and improve the health services delivered. A method to address this challenge is to express the potential savings and inefficiencies of hospitals. The hospitals should provide health care services with the acceptable quality and minimum cost. For this purpose, managers should have accurate information about the cost of the services they provide.
Methods: This is a cross-sectional retrospective study carried out based on the data of financial year of 2017-2018. In this study, the cost structure of Shafa Hospital was analyzed and its unit cost of the final activity centers was calculated using top-down approach.
Results: The total cost of the hospital in the studied period was US$ 29752539.1. The highest and lowest cost share was related to human resources and energy consumption (64.33% and 0.48%, respectively). The human resources, medicines, and consumables account for over 96% of the cost of the final clinical activity centers. The unit cost of the final activity centers varies so that among admission wards the unit cost of ICU is the highest (US$372.45) and the daily bed cost in the neurology ward is the lowest (US$118.9).
Conclusion: Clarification of the hospital cost structure can provide a comprehensive analysis of hospital costs for decision making and policy making. The unit cost of the final activity centers also provides insights into the hospital cost management planning.- انتشار مقاله: 15-07-1399
