Telefax: (+98 21) 88970700 Laboratory & Diagnosis Vol. 8, No 34, Supplement Issue Message of Congress Chairman Dr. S. M. Boutorabi DCLS, PhD In the name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful Dear professors,colleagues, students and all associates in the field of laboratory sciences; With the help of God and on the behalf of the Iranian association of clinical laboratory doctors (IACLD), I am honored to invite you to attend the 10th International and 15th National Congress in Quality Improvement of Clinical Laboratory Services in Iran (IQC15). With the aim of promoting science and improving the clinical laboratory services, this congress will be held on April 20-23 2017 at Tehran Milad Tower International Conference Center. With the every year slogan of “The Quality Has No End”, the congress is a good opportunity to exchange knowledge and experience in all fields of laboratory science in order to improve the quality of diagnostic laboratory services. The laboratory system in Iran in particular, is currently facing many administrative and economic challenges. If there were no commitment to provide services, it would not be possible for the private sector to continue the path in the present circumstances. It is hoped that with the attendance of decision-makers and government administrators, who should appreciate all these efforts, and with the exchange of ideas and debate, practical solutions for overcoming challenges and obstacles are achieved to avoid harming the health of people in the society. My hard working collogues in scientific and executive committees of the congress, hope that holding this congress as the largest event of laboratory science in the region, can provide substrates to improve knowledge of the attendants by the presence of domestic and foreign professors and experts in the field, as well as holding workshops, and the exhibition of equipment and supplies. Your warm sympathy and active participation are appreciated and we look forward to seeing you in the great scientific event of IQC15. 2 The 10th International & 15th National Congress on Quality Improvement in Clinical Laboratories April 20-23, 2017 Laboratory & Diagnosis Vol. 8, No 34, Supplement Issue Message of Congress Secretaries Dr. R. Mohammadi Dr. A. Sadeghitabar DCLS, PhD DCLS Clinical diagnostic laboratories have a long history in providing medical services in our country. There have been huge developments in the delivery of services and the variety of different laboratory tests during these years. The steep slope of these developments’ graph in the past two decades in particular, the graduation of clinical laboratory science doctors and the Quality Improvement Congress represents the importance of these two significant events. Partners in this field, who are pure graduates in the specialized areas of clinical laboratory, initiated the important event of the quality improvement congress, which today after 15 years of establishment, is proud of laboratory community of the country and has become one of the biggest conferences in laboratory science in the Middle East and Emro. The congress of quality improvement is a meeting place to exchange views and ideas of different sections of the laboratory community and has been the origin of good events such as quality improvement, standardization and development of laboratory science in the country’s medical society. Today we, as the laboratory community, are proud to be pioneer in the implementation of new developments in the medical field and owe this honor to the empathy and cooperation of all groups of educated and working people in this field. It is hoped that with active presence and participation in the fifteenth congress of quality improvement we can help to further development of laboratory science and improvement of the quality of services.

Ghodrati Amiri *, † and P. Namiranian Center of Excellence for Fundamental Studies in Structural Engineering, School of Civil Engineering, Iran University of Science & Technology, Tehran, IRAN ABSTRACT The main objective of this paper is to use ant optimized neural networks to generate artificial earthquake records. In this regard, training accelerograms selected according to the site geology of recorder station and Wavelet Packet Transform (WPT) used to decompose these records. Then Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) optimized with Ant Colony Optimization and resilient Backpropagation algorithm and learn to relate the dimension reduced response spectrum of records to their wavelet packet coefficients. Trained ANNs are capable to produce wavelet packet coefficients for a specified spectrum, so by using inverse WPT artificial accelerograms obtained. By using these tools, the learning time of ANNs reduced salient and generated accelerograms had more spectrum-compatibility and save their essence as earthquake accelerograms.

Moghadam Abstract In this paper I examine the way modalities of mobility and settlement contribute to the socio- economic stratification of the Iranian community in Dubai, while simultaneously reflecting its segmented nature, complex internal dynamics, and relationship to the environment in which it is formed. I will analyze Iranian migrants’ representations and their cultural initiatives to help elucidate the socio-economic hierarchies that result from differentiated access to distinct social spaces as well as the agency that migrants have over these hierarchies. In doing so, I examine how social categories constructed in the contexts of departure and arrival contribute to shaping migratory trajectories.

  • Molecular Genotyping of Giardia Duodenalis in Municipal Waste Workers in Ahvaz, Southwestern Iran
    Tropical Biomedicine 36(1): 44–52 (2019) Molecular genotyping of Giardia duodenalis in municipal waste workers in Ahvaz, southwestern Iran Mirzavand, S.1,2, Kohansal, K.2 and Beiromvand, M.1,2* 1Infectious and Tropical Diseases Research Center, Health Research Institute, Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences, Ahvaz, Iran 2Department of Parasitology, School of Medicine, Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences, Ahvaz, Iran *Corresponding author e-mail: [email protected] Received 28 February 2018; received in revised form 7 July 2018; accepted 12 October 2018 Abstract. Giardia duodenalis is one of the most common intestinal parasites in a wide range of vertebrates, including humans and animals. It is estimated that there are approximately 200 million symptomatic giardiasis per year globally. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence and molecular diversity of G. duodenalis in municipal waste workers in Ahvaz County, southwestern Iran. This cross-sectional study was conducted among municipal waste workers aged 21 to 59 years in Ahvaz County, southwestern Iran in 2015. Stool samples collected from 400 workers were examined initially by microscopy and sucrose flotation methods, and then G. duodenalis isolates were confirmed by SSU rRNA and subsequently the genotypes were identified by triose phosphate isomerase (tpi) gene of the parasite. In total, a prevalence of 4.0% was found for G. duodenalis by microscopy and sucrose flotation methods. All microscopic-positive samples were successfully amplified at the SSU rRNA gene while tpi gene was amplified in 13 (81.25%) samples. Out of the 13 amplified isolates at tpi gene, 10 (76.9%) were typeable while the other three (23.1%) were untypeable.
