Abstract
Background and Aim: There is a dearth of scientific data in sexual guilt and the factors that have influence on it in the academic literature. The aim of this study was to identify the relationship between attachment styles and age with sexual guilt in women.
Materials and Method: This was a correlational study. Pearson Correlation Coefficient and Regression Analysis Methods were used to analyze the data. Subjects were 192 married female students with the age range of 18-40 from three universities in Tehran, who filled out Adult Attachment Styles Index and Mosher Revised Sex-Guilt Inventory . Method of sampling was multistage clustering.
Results:The findings showed that there are significant relationships(,p<0.01) between sexual guilt and secure attachment style(r=-0.265), Insecure-ambivalent attachment style ( r= 0.241) and insecure-avoidant style(r=0.257), age(r=0.438) and marital duration( r=0.345) . Age, insecure-ambivalent and insecure-avoidant attachment styles were able to predict 25.1 percent of the variance of sexual guilt (p<0.001).
Conclusion: Women who have secure attachment style, report lower levels of sexual guilt and women who have insecure attachment styles report higher sexual guilt. Also age and marital duration are positively correlated with sexual guilt in women.

Abstract
Aims This study compared relative contrast values in three-dimensional Double Echo Steady State (DESS) sequences with two flip angles of 40 and 90 degrees and other routine sequences. The obtained data could help to prove the effects of this sequence, compared to the other routine sequences; accordingly, it could be applied for better detection of lesions resulting from cartilage abnormalities.
Methods & Materials Total, 15 patients, including 9 men (14-56 y) and 6 women (36-65 y) with knee pain symptoms were referred to us by an orthopedic physician. All of the investigated patients underwent Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) using DESS sequences with two flip angles of 40 and 90 degrees, as well as STIR , PD, T2, and 3D FLASH. We analyzed the acquired images using the Radiant DICOM Viewer4.6.9 software. We calculated relative contrast values for the selected SAGITAL images per sequence for each patient. The obtained data were analyzed using SPSS.
Findings Friedman and Wilcoxon statistical tests data revealed significant P values (<0.05) for all the sequences examined in this study. The DESS sequence with a flip angle of 90° presented the most relative contrast value with the average score of 77.2667. The FLASH sequence provided the worst result of 3.733 for the relative contrast value.
Conclusion The DESS sequence with 90° flip angle indicated the best relative contrast values and provided the best possible signal from the synovial fluid and the cartilage; therefore, it leads to the better examination of articular cartilage in terms of lesion. Accordingly, the DESS sequence with a flip angle of 90° was the optimal sequence to evaluate cartilage abnormalities among the examined sequences in this study.

Abstract
Aims: Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease, often reported in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. This study aimed to investigate the effects of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) and probiotic use on the expression of interleukin-10 and interferon-gamma genes in intestinal tissue in an animal model of fatty liver.
Methods & Materials: In this experimental study, 40 male Wistar rats (weighing 200-250 g) were selected. The study rats were randomly divided into 5 groups, including healthy control, fatty liver, fatty liver + HIIT, fatty liver + probiotic, and fatty liver + HIIT + Probiotics. Oral tetracycline was administered at a dose of 140 mg/kg of body weight (as a solution in 2 mL of water) for 7 days with fatty liver. HIIT was performed on tape 5 times a week for 5 weeks. The obtained data were analyzed using One-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Tukey post-hoc test at the significant level of P<0.05.
Findings: The present research results suggested that the expression of interleukin-10 and interferon-gamma genes in the intestinal tissue of steatosis mice in the fatty liver group was significantly higher than in the healthy control group (P=0.001). HIIT and probiotic use significantly reduced the expression of interleukin-10 and interferon-gamma genes in the intestinal tissue, compared to the fatty liver group (P=0.001).
Conclusion: According to the obtained data, HIIT and probiotic consumption can help modulate the expression of genes involved in the innate immune system of intestinal tissue caused by fatty liver.

Abstract
Aims Despite various government measures, control of COVID-19 requires immediate action, including vaccine production. Given the role of vaccine acceptance factors in future planning, this study aimed to unfold the determinants of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance in Gonabad.
Methods & Materials This descriptive-analytical study was performed on 292 people in Gonabad city, Iran, in 2021. The random multi-stage sampling method was used to select two groups of samples: Vaccinated and unvaccinated. The data collection tool consisted of a demographic checklist and a researcher-made questionnaire on the reasons for accepting or rejecting the COVID-19 vaccination. Data were collected by telephone and analyzed by SPSS software, version 23 using mean, standard deviation, and the Chi-square test at a significance level of less than 0.05.
Findings Most of the research participants were women (51%). The Mean±SD age of the vaccinated and non-vaccinated groups was 57.55±12.24 and 55.38±41.1 years, respectively. Two factors of living with people at risk (88.5%) and respect for the rights of others (80.9%) were the most important reasons for accepting and worrying about the side effects of the vaccine (63%). Worrying about the content and lack of knowledge about the effectiveness of the vaccine (45.3%) were mentioned as the most important reasons for not accepting the COVID-19 vaccination.
Conclusion Considering the importance of two factors, including the concern about the side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine and concern about the content and ineffectiveness of COVID-19 vaccine in rejecting COVID-19 vaccine, increasing public awareness and knowledge about the effectiveness of vaccines in the country seems necessary to plan and invest on a large scale in the country through reliable sources as well as efforts to reduce the fear of the consequences of vaccination.
