Abstract
Background and Aim: Because of its direct connection with human life, medicine is a sacred profession that has been considered by infallible imams (pbuh) and stories have been told about it from the beginning of Islam. With the increasing progress of technology, the study of the relationship between a patient and his/her doctor and of patients' familiarity with their rights has expanded. However, what has been the focus of legislators' attention more than ever is the compensation of damages caused by medical acts.
Materials and Methods: First, using library resources and validated research articles, we conducted a comparison method. Then, the collected documents were studied with descriptive and analytical method. In addition to books, articles, and the writings of law and jurisprudence sites, the researcher benefited from the opinions of jurists, lawyers, physicians, and the losers of medical affairs to explain the purpose of this research.
Results: With certain rules, the legislator has removed the causes of physician's commitment and responsibility; obtaining the consent of the patient or his/her guardian before treatment is among them.
Conclusion: This article considers full support for the physicians' acts in curing patients. However, it is necessary to highlight the responsibilities of the medical team; in fact, non-compliance with medical regulations as well as technical standards and regulations will have legal consequences.

This study was conducted with the aim of comparing the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy on the mental health of patients with a history of myocardial infarction hospitalized in hospitals in Kermanshah province in 2024.
Materials and Methods: The present study is applied in terms of purpose and in terms of implementation method, it is a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design and a control group. The statistical population of this study included all patients hospitalized with myocardial infarction in hospitals in Kermanshah province, from whom 45 people were selected conveniently and based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria and were randomly assigned to two experimental groups and one control group (three groups of 15 people). To collect the information required for the study, the Goldberg (2003) Demographic and Mental Health Questionnaire was used. SPSS statistical software and t-test and ANOVA statistical tests were used to analyze the research data.
Results: Out of a total of 45 participants, 29 were male (65.4%) and 16 were female (34.6%). The comparison of their mean mental health scores before the intervention in the pre-test and post-test was (64.8±11.18, 63.33±11.34), (62.6±12.22, 58.07±12.94) and (64.87±10.56, 61.87±10.59), respectively. Also, the results of the analysis of covariance test for comparing mental health in the acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive therapy groups showed that the F value obtained was 7.111 and its significance level was also smaller than 0.05 and was significant (P<0.05). As a result, both text-based acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy had a positive effect on the mental health of patients with a history of heart attack, and among them, the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy was higher.
Conclusion: Considering the lower mean scores of the ACT-based therapy group in the post-test, it can be concluded that it was more effective than cognitive behavioral therapy in increasing mental health.
