Background We conducted a study to evaluate the relationship between aura types and postoperative outcomes in patients with mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS) to predict the prognosis of patients, accordingly. Materials and Methods In this cross-sectional study, 99 patients with MTS-temporal lobe epilepsy were enrolled based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The types of aura were evaluated, and the outcomes were categorized according to the Engel scale. Preoperative and postoperative results of patients were compared and analyzed with the Kruskal-Wallis test. Results About 73.7% of patients had seizure-free after their surgeries. The most of patients (n = 81) were in Class I of Evaluating Engel criteria. About 36.3% had not experienced any aura before their seizures, and among those with aura, the most prevalent aura was abdominal aura in 29 patients (29.3%) followed by other types of aura and affective aura. Most of the patients in Class I, II, III, and IV of Engel scale had an abdominal aura, without aura, effective aura, and abdominal aura, respectively, but this difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.691). Conclusion According to this study, the type of aura cannot predict postoperative outcomes in MTS patients. More studies are needed to evaluate this relation in better-planned studies with greater sample size.

This study was designed to evaluate the probable relation between addiction tendency and responsibility. Materials and Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted in Isfahan in 2018. A total of 496 high school students aged from 15 to 18 years were selected by a multistage cluster and systematic random sampling method. Students' responsibility and adolescents' addiction tendency questionnaire were used. The collected data were analyzed by the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 20 using Chi-square test, independent t-test, multivariate analysis of variance, and linear regression. Results The mean age of participants was 16.50 ± 1.12. The results showed that boys' out-of-home activities were more than girls (P less then 0.001), but there was no significant difference between girls and boys regarding indoor activities. Furthermore, it was found that girls were more responsible than boys (P = 0.004) and addiction tendency was higher in boys (P = 0.001). Social responsibility and addiction tendency had a significant negative relationship in this research (P less then 0.001). In addition, parents' education, the feeling of belonging, and the sense of security had an effect on the addiction tendency (P less then 0.001 for all). Conclusion This study showed that social responsibility could affect the addiction tendency.

Physical activity (PA), which is a multidimensional behavior, has an important role in preventing and decreasing obesity. The aim of the study is to evaluate the knowledge, attitude, and exercise habits of middle school students and also explore the differences regarding demographic variables in Isfahan, Iran. Materials and Methods One thousand seven hundred and forty-one middle school students were studied in this cross-sectional study, in 2015, Isfahan. Knowledge, attitude, and pattern of PA were evaluated by a questionnaire. Data were described using central tendency and dispersion values, as well as t-test, Chi-square, ANOVA, and linear regression tests for further analysis. Results Students living in Khour and Biabanak and Tiran got the highest and lowest scores in knowledge (mean ± standard deviation 9 ± 1.32 and 6.7 ± 2.19, respectively). Education of the father is the only variable which was associated with the knowledge about PA after adjusting for other factors. About 62.5% of the students mentioned a good attitude toward PA. About 50% of the students said that they always and often do exercise. The most favorable exercise for all the students was walking. Conclusion We provide the pattern of PA among middle school students of Isfahan province, which can be used to design evidence-informed policies and interventions that aim to increase PA in students.

However, despite the fact that sun exposure occurs almost throughout the year in India, vitamin D deficiency is widely prevalent. Although several authors have reported on the duration of sun exposure required to synthesize adequate amounts of vitamin D in the human body, they have not followed a standard and uniform protocol for measurement of sun exposure and vitamin D synthesis. For these and many other reasons, the results are difficult to interpret. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has clearly stated that infants should be protected from the sun as much as possible and vitamin D requirements should be met through diet and fortified foods rather than deliberate sun exposure. However, this recommendation is frequently ignored in clinical practice. This review aims to summarize the available literature on benefits and harm of unprotected sun exposure in infants and children with a focus on skin phototype IV to VI. Dermatologists and pediatricians in India should counsel parents about the need for sun protection, especially in fair-skinned infants and children.

PPV type II or Happle's phakomatosis cesioflammea is the most common subtype comprising of nevus flammeus along with pigmentary nevus in the form of aberrant Mongolian spots, nevus of Ota or less frequently nevus of Ito. It is estimated that around 50% of patients with PPV have systemic involvement, most frequently involving the central nervous system and eye. Other associated features include vascular abnormalities such as Sturge-Weber syndrome, and klippel trenaunay syndrome (KTS), and cutaneous lesions such as nevus anemicus (most common), cafe'-au-lait macules, generalized vitiligo and congenital triangular alopecia (CTA). There are only four reports of PPV associated with CTA in literature, and only a single previous report with associated KTS and this association has not been reported previously from India. We describe a case of a 30-year-old male having phakomatosis pigmentovascularis type II along with klippel trenaunay syndrome and associated with congenital triangular alopecia.
