Background and purpose: Hormonal changes, hot flush and peri-menopausal crises affect women's mental; health and predisposes them to depression. Hormone replacement therapy is applied to treat menopausal symptoms but its effect on depression is in question. Therefore / this research is Conducted to determine the effect of hormone replacement therapy on menopausal depression.
Methods and Materials: In this quasi - experimental study 40 menopausal women from Mashad, with no history of hormone therapy psychiatric disorders and no Contraindication of hormone therapy, were selected and divided into 2 groups according to their own tendency. The experimental group received 0.625 mg conjugated estrogen and 2.5 mg medroxy progesterone acetate daily for six weeks; the control group received nothing. Sample selection checklists, demographic questionnaire, Beck's depression inventory, premenstrual syndrome test, Cassidy social support scale, Uzeng self- esteem, and attitudes toward menopause and hormone therapy were utilized for data collection. The obtained data were analyzed in SPSS using independent and paired t- tests, as well as two - way ANOVA.
Results: mean depression score at the outset for the control and experimental groups were 21.85±8.4 and 20.25±7.5 and at the end of the study 17.00±8.7 and 15.5±7.6 respectively; this implied a significant difference in each group. However, the difference between the two groups was not significant.
Conclusion: The results indicated no significant different in utilizing or not utilizing Hormone Replacement therapy on menopausal depression. Therefore, longitudinal and more extensive researches are recommended to Study the issue.

Postoperative Shivering, reported to be of up to 66% prevalence, can cause serions complications such as over consumption of oxygen , vascular cowstriction, myocardial disorders and cerebral pressure increase. In this study, the effect of oral clonidine on postoperative shivering has been studied. 86 patients of class I and II surgery were randomly assigned into clonidine and placebo groups in this clinical trial. The former received 5 g/kg oral clonidine 90 to 120 minutes prior to surgery and the latter received similar pills with no clonidine. Anaesthesia was the same. The patients were observed at recovery for their shivering. The results indicated that the two groups were homogeneous across their age, sex, BMI, type and duration of surgery, bp and body temperaturye. Postoperative shivering in placebo group was 24.1% while it was reduced to 6.3% in the Clonidine group. Therefore, oral Clonidine is Recommended as a supplement to pre - and Post operative caregivings in order to decrease shivering and its complications.

Muscular injections are one of the most common medical procedures and nurses encounter the experience of pain in their patients and look for ways of reducing pain. This quasi-experimental research was conducted to study the effects of Z-track and air-lock injection methods on the intensity of pain. 585 women referring to Heshmatiyyah Clinic in Sabzevar, Iran for either of three injections (Penicillin, B-complex, Diclophenac) were randomly assigned into three groups of 195 members; in each group, 65 patients received Ztrack 65 air-lock and the last 65 routine methods of injection in lateral position. Visual scale was utilized for pain assessment. Findings revealed that in Z-track group, intensity of pain was 3.1; while it was 4.1 and 4.5 in air-lock and routine injection groups; the difference was found to be significant by one -way ANOVA. Severe pain was experienced by 4.1% in Ztrack group, 7.7% in air-lock and 14.4% in the routine injection methods; Chi-squre revealed a significant relationship between pain intensity and injection method (P<0.0001). However, no significant relationship was found to exist between intensity of pain and factors such as age, occupation, education, and BMI. Therefore, it is suggested that we make use of Z-track injection for the ease of patients.
