Abstract
Aims and background: Although suctioning is an important nursing intervention in neonates under mechanical ventilation, it can lead to complications such as pain, respiratory distress, hypoxemia, bronchospasm and hospital infection. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between pain score and its effective indices in neonatal endotracheal open suction under ventilator in the neonatal intensive care unit of Hamadan hospitals.
Materials and methods: This descriptive correlational study has been performed in 120 preterm infants under mechanical ventilation in Neonatal intensive care unit of Hamadan hospitals. First,, the respiratory rate and oxygen saturation of the neonatal arterial blood were recorded 5 minutes before the patient suction by the researcher in three shifts based on the findings of the direct monitoring of the infant. During and 5 minutes after suction, the respiratory rate and oxygen saturation index was re-recorded. Data were analyzed using descriptive and regression tests. Findings: According to the results of the adapted model, linear regression between the number of respiration and arterial oxygen saturation during the suction with the pain score was not statistically significant, but there was a significant correlation between the Apgar score of the birth time and the pain score (P =0/000). Conclusion: Endotracheal open suction in premature infants could greatly affect the number of respiration and oxygen saturation in arterial blood gas and increase the pain score in these infants.

Abstract
Aims and background: Aims and background: Lumbar muscle imbalances could affect the lower extremity. The aim of present study was to survey the relationship between pain and lumbar arch with ankle muscle activity and comparison these variables in males and females with chronic non-specific low back pain when implementing single leg squat. Materials and methods: 47 Participants with chronic nonspecific low back pain (CNLBP) were selected in this study (male=22 and female=25). Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate the LBP intensity. Lumbar lordosis curve was recorded using a flexible ruler. The Participants perform single leg squat position and dominant foot electromyography would be measured when the person was in the single leg squat position. The Pearson correlation coefficient was used to examine the relationship between variables and Independent t test was used to compare variables between males and females. Findings: The results showed there were positive and significant correlation between pain of tibialis anterior muscle activity and peroneus longus muscle in males and females. Conclusion: Regarding the results of this study, it would be concluded that low back pain is one of those factor that may increase ankle muscle activity. Treatment of low back pain could decrease the risk of injury caused by changes in postural control mechanisms and proprioception in lumbar and other joints in the kinetic chain, especially the ankle joint.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Non-specific chronic low back pain (LBP) is the most common problem of spinal column disorder and musculoskeletal problems. Many evidence has demonstrated that exercise and corrective exercise is a positive intervention on decrease pain; but according to the relationship between increased lumbar lordosis angle and low back pain; it seems to be very important to implement the study about pain changes and lumbar lordosis angle. Furthermore, movement control impairment is one of the most problem related with low back pain. The aim of current systematic review was to evaluate the effect of exercise on pain, lumbar lordosis angle and movement control in participants with non-specific chronic low back pain.
Material and Methods: A data base search within the all of times was performed, using Google Scholar, PubMed, The PEDro, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Trip Database and Web of Science systems. Studies investigating the effect of types of exercise in pain, lumbar lordosis angle and movement control in patient with LBP were included. PEDro quality scale was used for the assessment of included studies.
Results: Eleven out of 128 relevant articles had our search entrance criterions, which were chosen for this review (score higher than 5 on the PEDro scale). There was a large difference between various studies base on their methodology, outcome measures, simple size, procedure, etc. However, results from studies have verified that exercise causes decrease pain, decrease lumbar lordosis angle and increase movement control in patient with LBP; and exercise effective on decrease pain in pregnant women, but was not effect on lumbar lordosis angle in pregnant women. Also studies that shown decreased lumbar lordosis angle after exercises, was more effectively on more decreased LBP in patient.
Conclusion: It is likely that exercise decrease pain, lumbar lordosis angle and increase movement control in patient with low back pain; also exercise can decrease LBP in pregnant women, especially in the last months of pregnancy.

Abstract
Introduction: Hypoglycemia is one of the most important possible side effects of fasting in children who need surgery, and its prevention is very important. This study was conducted in order to investigate and compare the oral administration of 5% dextrose and intravenous infusion of 1.3, 2.3 sugar-salt serum on the blood sugar levels of 6-2-year-old children who were candidates for minor surgery under general anesthesia.
Methods: In this randomized clinical trial study, 66 children aged 2-6 years who were candidates for minor surgery under general anesthesia at Hazrat Ali Asghar Hospital in Tehran were selected as available and randomly selected in one of two The group under oral administration of 5% dextrose (intervention group) at the rate of 10 cc/kg 2 hours before the operation or continuous intravenous injection of 1.3, 2.3 sugar saline serum (control group) according to the formula 4, 2, 1 direction Calculation of the volume of venous fluids were divided while fasting, and their blood sugar levels were measured and compared on two occasions (immediately after induction of anesthesia and then half an hour later).
Findings: In this study, the average blood sugar immediately after induction of anesthesia was 88.75 in the group receiving oral dextrose and 85.77 in the group receiving saline serum, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (P=0.554), but the average blood sugar half an hour later of induction of anesthesia was 79.75 in the group receiving oral dextrose and 64.84 in the group receiving intravenous sugar-salt serum, which was significantly higher (P=0.36).
Conclusion: based on the results obtained in this study, it is concluded that the oral administration of 5% dextrose has an equivalent role to the intravenous infusion of sugar-saline serum in preventing the occurrence of hypoglycemia in 2-6 year old children who are candidates for surgery. It can be used as a suitable alternative to intravenous serum in children.
