Abstract
Different ossificant materials have been used for induction of bone repair in many studies, and bone matrix gelatin which contains bone morphogenic proteins is one of the best ones. In present study we evaluated the role of this material in acceleration of bone repair in rabbit tibia. A hole of 3.5 mm diameter was made on right tibia of 10 and 12 rabbits as study and control group respectively. In the experiment group, in addition to Bone Wax, we applied bone matrix gelatin in the hole. Radiographic images were taken in days 0, 20, 40 and 53 after operation. In 6 rabbits of each group, photographic pictures were also taken after exposure of entire bone. In 6 controls less degree of restoration were seen on day 53. In 4 experimental animals restoration were completed by this time and in 2 speciments repair processing were better than controls. This results shows that bone matrix gelatin can be used as a accelerator of bone repair.

Abstract
Sex determination is the first step in identification of dead body and hip bone or its components are reliable in sex discrimination. The present study was done to determine the applicability of some osteometric parameters of human hip bone in sex identification. Sixteen different variables for the anterior border of 50 human hip bones from a skeletal collection were studied. Statistically significant difference were detected between means in relation to sex for four variables, including: distance from the anterior superior iliac spine to the pubic tubercle, distance from the anterior inferior iliac spine to the iliopubic eminence, distance from the anterior inferior iliac spine to the pubic tubercle and length of the notch between the anterior inferior iliac spine and the iliopubic eminence. These variables could be used for sex determination of the unknown human hip bones.

Abstract
The aims of this study were to determine incidence and types of observable congenital abnormalities among births of Mirza Kochak-Khan, Imam Khomeni and Shariatti hospitals between first of Novermber 2000 to the end of September 2001.
Materials and Methods: We used neonates that survived for 24 hours after delivery. A questionnaire was specially designed to explore each of the objectives for our study. A group of experts that were thoroughly trained to completed questionnaires by interview to mothers and evaluation of neonates. Data analysis was performed and by Excel and SPSS.
Results: Results showed that congenital abnormalities were present in 205 (3.2 %) of 6424 neonates, from 3 hospitals. The most frequent abnormalities consisted of musculoskeletal defects (37.3 %), Nervous system defects (24.7 %), urogenital defects (24.3 %) head and neck defects (13.6 %).
Conclusion: The result of this study showed that incidence of visible congenital abnormalities ratio in contrast to other countries have not significant difference but the types abnormalities were significant.

Abstract
Background: This study was performed to investigate the rate of inner cell mass of blastocyst which obtain from culture of mouse two cell embryos in presence and absence of recombinant of human leukemia inhibitory factor.
Materials and Methods: ICR female mice that were between 6-8 weeks old received intra peritoneal injection of 7.5 IU of pregnant mare serum gonadotropine for super ovulation, this was followed by intra peritoneal administration of 7.5 of hCG 46-48 hours later. The mice were then mated to mature ICR male mice and were checked for vaginal plug 20 hours later. Female mice were killed by cervical dislocation 48-50 hours after hCG administration and after washing and flushing of the oviduct from the proximal end of the oviduct, two cell embryos were selected and collected by 100 microscopy. All two cell embryos were randomly divided in 4 groups (Groups A, B C and D) and culture in special media. Groups A: KSOM+AA, Groups B: KSOM+AA 500 IU/ml LIF. Groups C: KSOM+AA 1000 IU/ml LIF. Groups D: KSOM+AA 1500 IU/ml LIF media until 120 hours in Co2 incubator .After that time all blastocysts collected and the number of ICM was assessed by differential staining technology.
Results: The rates of ICM of blastocysts which obtain from groups A, B, C and D were 19 2.6, 28 4.4, 24 2.1, 26 2.2 respectively. This data indicated that the rate of ICM in groups B, C and D was statistically higher than group A (P=0.02) and also there was not statistically different between three groups of B, C and D.
Conclusion: Briefly leukemia inhibitory factor can improve the rate of ICM of blastocyst and we suggest that this factor is better added to blastocyst culture medium.

Abstract
Background: Freezing and thawing induce a number of insults to the sperm cells, such as low motility and low fertilization capability. For evaluation of hyaluronan (HA) supplementation on sperm characteristics, we investigated the effect of hyaluronan (HA) on mouse sperm before freezing and after thawing.
Methods: For this purpose we removed cauda epididimes from 24 male mice with aseptic method and freezed the semen in 1.8ml cryotubes with %18 raffinose and %3 skim milk cryoprotectant solution.We had 4 groups: group 1(fresh control) group 2(freeze control) group 3(supplemented 750 µg/ml HA to sperm before freezing) and group 4(supplemented 750 µg/ml HA to sperm after thawing). Fertility rate evaluated after routine IVF by counting two-cell stage embryos.
Results: HA supplementation (750µg/ml) after thawing improved fertilization capability parameters but supplementation before freezing had no effect on mentioned characteristic.
Conclusion: Acording to data of present study the hyaluronan supplemen- tation (750µg/ml) after thawing has the greatest effect on the fertility rate of sperms.

Abstract
Background: Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) is a group of secreted glycoproteins with molecular weights ranging from 38-67 kD, resulting from differential protein glycosylation. LIF is constitutively expressed at high levels in the human fallopian tube epithelium and has an important role in the motility and vitality of sperm. In the present study, the effect of human recombinant LIF on human sperm motility and survival in vitro was investigated.
Methods: Normal spermatozoa of 30 fertile men were collected and after preparation were incubated in Ham's F10+FCS 10% medium, containing various concentrations (0, 3, 5, 10, and 50 ng/ml) of LIF at 37 ºC under 5% CO2 for 6, 24 and 48 hours. Sperm motion characteristics were measured using a Makler chamber. Sperm survival was determined using the hypoosmotic swelling test. Collected data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and LSD test using SPSS version 11. The difference in values were considered significant when p<0.05.
Results: Sperm motility was significantly higher after 24 h exposure to 5-10 ng/ml LIF (p<0.05). The survival rate of sperm was significantly prolonged when exposed to 50 ng/ml LIF (p<0.05). Nonprogressive motility and survival rate of sperm were significantly higher after 48 h exposure to 50 ng/ml and 10-50 ng/ml LIF, respectively. (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in progressive sperm motility during the 48 h exposure of sperm to the various concentrations of LIF.
Conclusion: According to our results, the effect of LIF on sperm motility and survival were dependent on the dose of LIF supplementation and the length of incubation.
