Abstract
Background: Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of death in many nations. .Hyperlipidemia with elevated serum total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglyceride are known as cardiovascular risk factors. HDL cholesterol is considered to be a protective factor. Any effort for management of dyslipidemia directly reduces cardiovascular mortality and morbidity and cause increasing public health .The ignorance of the extent and impact of hyperlipidemia prompted us to determine the prevalence of hyperlipidemia in Rafsanjan urban population over than 20 years old.
Methods: In this study 247 men and 244 women were evaluated for serum total cholesterol , LDL cholesterol , HDLcholesterol and triglyceride levels.Blood samples were obtained at morning, after 14 hours fasting and for data analysis SPSS-11 soft ware was used. Results: Mean age of subjects was 38.35±13.14 years.High cholesterol level was present in 20.6%, LDL levels were high in 10.8% , 5.7% had elevated level of triglyceride and 8.4% of participants had low HDL cholesterol. Total cholesterol , LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels were significantly increased by age and HDL levels were also decreased by age.
Conclusion:According to our finding about 29% of studied population had at least one lipid abnormality and this important finding showed very high prevalence of dyslipidemia and requires specific attention and planning.

Abstract
Background: According to the importance of the family physicians program results in rural areas and government decision to apply this program in urban areas of Iran, This study aimed to determine the quality of care and blood sugar control, blood pressure and blood lipids in diabetic type &Iota&Iota patients in rural areas covered by family physicians. Methods: In this study, 380 patients 30-76 years old with medical records in the health centers of the malekan-Iran in rural areas in 2013, after informed consents were enrolled. Data were collected by interview and HbA1c examinations and using a standard questionnaire. Data analyzed by SPSS19 version. Multivariate logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios adjusting for diabetes complications and related risk factors. Results: Results showed that 68% Study participants was women’s and average age of patients was 57.86±11.9 and sex ratio of females to males was almost 2.2 with 1. Final analysis showed that HbA1c levels more than 7% (PHbA1c=0.002), cholesterol over 240 mm/dl (Pcholesterol=0.04) and hypertensive over 140/90mm/Hg (PHTN=0.007) 1.52, 2.44 and 1.44 times increased risk of diabetes complications, respectively. Conclusions: The quality of care and blood sugar control in diabetic patients was lower than compared to the American Diabetes Association (ADA) standards, but our results are near to results of Country studies.

Abstract
Background: Endocrinology and Metabolism Research Institute (EMRI) is one of the largest research institutes in Iran, which has been established to develop research strategies and manage endocrine and metabolic diseases such as diabetes. The purpose of this report is to review and summarize research activities related to diabetes over a quarter of a century at EMRI.
Methods: A comprehensive search of PubMed, Scopus and EMBASE was conducted to find diabetes-related studies in EMRI. After extracting the data, the articles were classified according to the type of article, the level of evidence, the types of diabetes and their subject.
Results: After eliminating duplicates and screening, finally 228 articles were classified. Most diabetes research conducted at the Diabetes Research Center (DRC) was on type 2 diabetes (37%). By article type, most of the articles were original. In addition, clinical studies provided the most evidence in the obtained documents. By topic, most of the articles were related to the basic sciences and factors related to diabetes, followed by studies on the management and prevention of diabetes.
Conclusion: Most of the research conducted in the Diabetes Research Center in the past quarter of a century is of original studies in the field of basic sciences in the field of type 2 diabetes and most of the evidence produced is related to observational studies.
