Abstract
Background & objective:
One of the common purposes of medical research is Determination of effective factors on the occurrence of event. Due to the interaction of risk factors regression models, discriminant analysis and classification procedures used. Uses of these models require making the assumption which in the medical data isn’t usually established. Therefore, alternative methods must be used. According to diversification of risk factors for of esophageal cancer, the purpose of this article is the Introduction and application of classification and regression tree for determination of risk factor for esophageal cancer in Golestan province.
Methods:
Data of this article gathered from case-control study. Case group contain all confirmed cases of esophageal cancer that consist of 90 male and 60 female subjects in Golestan province during one year. Two control groups were considered for each case. Control groups were selected from family of patients and neighbors and matched for age, sex, ethnic and place of residence. Data was analyzed with classification and regression tree model and by using of R software. Gini criterion was used for selection of best splitting in each node and ROC surveyed accuracy of CRT model.
Results:
(ethnic factors) can be effective in esophageal cancer occurrences.
Results of Classification tree model showed that exposure to CT and X-ray dye (socio-environmental factors), unwashed hands after defecation, history of smoking (lifestyle factors) and family history of cancer
Conclusion:
models results` interpretation are two essential beneficiary of these models which can use in medical sciences.
Tree models don’t require the establishment of no default for making model and feasibility of tree

Abstract
Background & Objective: Animal bites are a major threat to human health, while the subsequent infections such as Rabies could be lethal. The aim of this study was to determine the epidemiologic status of animal bite and the effect of wasting stray dogs on the incidence of animal bites in Galikesh County since 2009 until 2013.

A total of 1712 animal-bitten cases who were residing in Galikesh during the years of 2009-2013 were enrolled by census method. Data were collected from the recorded documents of animal-bitten individuals and analyzed by SPSS.
Results: Of all cases, 1203 (70.3%) individuals were male and 509 (29.7%) were female. Regarding the age, cases were ranged between 1 to 89 years with a mean and standard deviation of 26.88 ± 18.39 years. The majority of bite cases (92.3%) were related to dogs. Moreover, 71.4% of bites were on legs. There was a significant relationship between sex and the place of residence as well as between the place of the event (biting) and delay to the first vaccination (P <0.05). Wasting the stray dogs has no effect on reducing the incidence of bites (P <0.05).

Abstract
Background and objectives: Road accidents are one of the most important causes of mortality and severe physical and psychological damage which may lead to adverse social, cultural and economic consequences in the human community. Frequency and severity of road accidents in developing countries are noticeably higher in comparison to developed countries. In Iran, 25% of casualties are due to the abnormal deaths caused by road accidents. It is estimated that more than 22,000 people die due to road accidents every year. The present study aimed to epidemiologically investigate the mortality rate of suburban accidents in Golestan province, Iran.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted using a descriptive approach. Required data were obtained from the traffic police of Golestan province. In total, 2,922 cases of road accidents were investigated in Golestan province in 2015. The analyzed data included the demographic characteristics of the deceased and the environmental and geographical conditions of the accident. Data analysis was performed in SPSS version 20.
Results: Among 2,922 road accidents in Golestan province, 251 cases led to the death of 317 individuals. Most of the accidents leading to death were by automobiles (69.7%) and due to distraction from the road (33.1%), which occurred on main roads (47.8%). Moreover, 29.7% of guilty drivers had not fastened seatbelts. Motorcycle riders and car passengers accounted for the highest percentage of accident victims (30.6% and 25.5%, respectively).
Conclusion: Education and emphasis on the use of seatbelts and motorcycle helmets while driving seem essential to reducing the injuries caused by road traffic accidents. Considering that most road accidents occur due to the distraction of the driver from the road, changing traffic behaviors to improve discipline is of paramount importance.
