Genetic counseling
Genetic counseling is actually a branch of medical genetics that examines the likelihood of developing genetic diseases and provides appropriate strategies for preventing repeat offspring with the goal of a future and healthy generation.
The marriage of both non-familial individuals has a potential risk of about 2-3%. This is higher in marriage with relatives and is different in terms of kinship.
Although geneticists do not hesitate to marry third-degree relatives, provided that there is no family history of hereditary diseases, it’s best to consult a genetic counselor before marriage in any case, if possible.
One of the main goals of genetic counseling is to identify the risk of a hereditary illness in pregnancy.
Genetic counseling is important in all stages of life, but the following is commonly categorized:
Genetic counseling before marrying
This advice, which is more common in Iran, is suggested to people who intend to marry, especially with their sweetheart, and at the same time are worried about their future child suffering from a genetic disease.
Family marriage counseling
Family marriage is a marriage in which the couple are related to each other and have similar and common ancestors and genes. Currently, thousands of rare hereditary diseases are known, which can infect children through inherited common genes from parents. This risk is higher in consanguineous marriages due to the presence of shared genes, but it does not mean that there is no risk in non-consanguineous marriages, but the probability of risk will be lower.
Consultation before and during pregnancy
It is offered to families who intend to conceive and are somehow concerned about the health of their future generation. Such as pregnancy under the age of 18 and over 35, the presence of a child with a genetic disease, one of the parents suffering from a genetic disease or a systemic disease, or a history of repeated miscarriages or infertility.
Counseling and estimating the risk of disability. The presence of previous records of disability in a person or family members can be a reason for the family to worry and refer them to diagnose the cause of disability, disability or calculate the risk of repeating disability in the next generation.
The purpose of genetic counseling can be one of the following materials
1- Helping to better understand genetic disease
2- Symptoms and diagnostic methods
3- Better prediction and control of disease symptoms
4- Prevention of infection or recurrence of the disease
5- suggest proper solutions Like:
- Prenatal diagnosis (PND)
- Preimplantation Egg Diagnosis (PGD)
- Natural pregnancy replacement methods
- Genetic screenings
- Specialized genetic tests

- Physical growth disorder and dwarfism
- Behavioral and mental disorders
- Frequent birth defects

Various applications of flow cytometry
- Immunophenotyping of acute and chronic leukemias.
- plasma cell disease
- Treatment monitoring in leukemias,
- Determining effective factors in the prognosis of the disease,
- Quantitative investigation of immune cells
Separation cellular sorting
The most used flow cytometry is the evaluation of surface antigens expressed on cells. But in addition to that, cells may be examined by different methods to measure functional properties by flow cytometry. It is possible to determine temporal changes in the expression of receptors or to measure the interaction of one type of cell with another cell. In addition, it is possible to evaluate changes in enzyme activity and membrane potential. Experiments can also be performed to demonstrate phagocytosis and the release of bioactive molecules.
The main efficiency of these separators is to isolate desired cell populations from a heterogeneous population of cells for further study. In general, if a cell or particle has unique physical or chemical characteristics, it can be easily identified and identified by using those characteristics.flowsorter Separated from other accompanying cells.
The flow cytometry method has become an important tool in the study of immune system cells due to the increase in the number of antibodies, tetramers, and dyes produced for use in evaluating the activity of cells. The cultured cells are evaluated separately

Tests based on pregnancy
NIPT or NIFTY test – Non-invasive prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome and chromosomal abnormalities (cell-free DNA)
During the last two decades, various methods including measurement of chemical markers and ultrasound parameters, as well as combining the two together, have been developed to screen For Down syndrome, but due to the drawbacks of these methods, scientists have always sought better methods. The biggest problem in traditional screening methods is the high percent of false positive and false negative results and for confirming tests, the probability of abortion is due to invasive sampling method. The false positive result means that while there is no disease, the test results are positive. False negative means that while there is a disease, the test result is no.
In 1997, scientists discovered the existence of fetal DNA in the mother’s blood. This important discovery became fundamental to the emergence of non-invasive methods of diagnosing Down syndrome. Finally, real success was achieved in 2008 when researchers proved the detection power of fetal chromosomal abnormalities by using fetal DNA sequencing method in the mother’s blood with a correctness of about 100 percent.
The principles of this method are based on measuring free DNA in the fetus in the mother’s blood, which are released from placenta cells.
Experts considers this discovery to be a revolution in diagnostic methods during pregnancy and predicts that in the near future, tests based on it will be completely replaced by traditional screening methods.
Experts considers this discovery to be a revolution in diagnostic methods during pregnancy and predicts that in the near future, tests based on it will be completely replaced by traditional screening methods. This means that 99.9% of down syndrome can be diagnosed with this test. That is, its false negative is less than 0.1%.
The dna life of the fetus in the mother’s blood is very short and disappears immediately after birth from the mother’s blood, so previous pregnancies have no effect on the test result.
It should be noted that this test did not eliminate the need for alpha photoprotein testing to investigate fetal neural tube development disorders in the second trimester and pregnant woman should be sure to go back to the laboratory at 15 to 20 weeks pregnant.
Basically, it is difficult for pregnant women to choose between screening tests where the probability of error is high and invasive procedures (amniocentesis or CVS) that are likely to have an abortion, but the emergence of these new methods has made decision making easier.
Test Benefits:
• Non-invasive: Only a few cc of the mother’s blood is needed for the test.
• High sensitivity and accuracy of the test: (more than 99.9%)
• Early detection: The test can be done from 10 weeks of pregnancy and this time helps to make better decisions.
• Quick response: The test results are prepared within 10 days.
Offers
• Use this test on high-risk pregnancies such as pregnant women over 35 years of age and those who have had high-risk (positive) results in common screening methods.
• Application of this test for those who are terrified of sampling invasive methods.
• Testing for women who cannot accept the risk of miscarriage in invasive procedures.
• Amniocentesis performed on those who had positive results in NIPT testing.
• Alpha-fathoprotein test in the second trimester to investigate fetal neural tube development disorders.
Keep in mind that most babies are born healthy.
amniocentesis
What is amniocentesis?
Amniocentesis is proposed as a medical technique of prenatal diagnosis, during which a small amount of amniotic fluid is taken and examined genetically. The most common tests performed on the obtained sample are chromosomal tests and aneuploidy tests. This test is performed around 15 to 18 weeks of pregnancy. At this time, the uterus and the fetus are enlarged and there is enough amniotic fluid to remove this amount of fluid and there will be no problem for the fetus.
Who should be examined for amniocentesis?
br />1. Pregnant women who have high risk in screening methods.
2. Pregnant women with abnormal ultrasound results.
3. Couples who have a high risk of having a child with a recognizable genetic disease such as thalassemia or tuberculosis.
4. People who have a history of frequent abortion or birth of a child with chromosomal problems such as Down syndrome.
5. Couples who carry a chromosomal abnormality.
How to perform amniocentesis:
After determining the age of the fetus, heart rate, placenta location, and amnion volume with the help of ultrasound, the appropriate place for sampling is selected. The mother’s abdomen is disinfected and anesthetized in the uterus, then a special needle is inserted into the uterus under direct ultrasound control, and then the water bag is taken and a small amount of amniotic fluid (about 20 ml) is taken, and sent to the laboratory for genetic testing.
The amount of pain caused by this test is less than the pain caused by an intramuscular injection.
What defects are detected by amniocentesis?
Amniocentesis is used to diagnose chromosomal abnormalities and other fetal problems, such as:
Down syndrome (trisomy 21), Edward syndrome (trisomy 18), Patau syndrome (trisomy 13), and all aneuploidies in general
Fragile X syndrome
Neural tube defects by determination of alpha-phytoprotein levels
What cases cannot be examined with amniocentesis?
In each pregnancy, there is a risk of about 5-3% for the occurrence of congenital disorders with unknown causes. For example, we can mention sugar lip syndrome, mental disorders, and cardiovascular damage. The Amniocentesis method is not useful in investigating this group of congenital disorders and diseases.
Is amniocentesis a risky test?
The probability of miscarriage in sampling is estimated to be about 0.5 to 1%, and the risk of infection following this test is estimated to be about 1 out of every 3000 amniocenteses.
The hole in the amniotic sac heals and the volume of fluid removed from the fetal water sac is compensated and returns to normal within a short period of time.
The mother’s blood type is determined before the test, and if the mother is Rh negative, the Rogam ampoule should be injected into the mother to prevent harm to the fetus.
During the sampling and after the test, the mother may feel a brief pain and spasm in the lower abdomen area, and she may see a blood stain or a small discharge of fluid, which will disappear within 1 to 2 days.
About 1-2% of pregnant women experience severe spasms or fluid leakage and bleeding after the test, in which case a physician should be contacted.
Benefits of amniocentesis
In short, it can be said that amniocentesis is a low-risk procedure that provides useful information regarding many chromosomal problems and possible fetal abnormalities.
Screening tests during pregnancy
- Down syndrome screening in the first trimester
- Down syndrome screening in the second trimester (quad marker)
- integrated screening
- sequential screening
For every pregnant woman in general, there is a possibility of having a child with birth defects. Although this probability is not very high, but by performing screening tests, you can find out the real extent of this probability to a large extent.
Defects that are checked in prenatal screening tests include:
Chromosomal disorders such as trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), trisomy 18 (Edward syndrome), and trisomy 13 (Pateau syndrome) Structural disorders such as open neural tube defects (NTDs = a type of congenital disorder in the brain or spinal cord and the most common disabling congenital disorder This disorder occurs in the first month of pregnancy before the mother is aware of her pregnancy. The most common types are spina bifida, anencephaly, encephalocele) and heart defects.
Down syndrome is a congenital chromosomal disorder. A person with Down syndrome, in addition to having a specific and different face, also has learning disabilities and medical problems. There is no cure for Down syndrome and it accompanies the person for the rest of his/her life. A person with Down syndrome actually has 3 chromosomes (trisomy).
The prevalence of Down syndrome is about 1 in 800 pregnancies. Anyone can have a baby with Down syndrome, but the older the mother, the greater the risk of having such a baby. For example, for a 20-year-old woman, the probability of giving birth to a child with Down syndrome is 1/500. This probability would be 1.270 for a 35-year-old woman. However, most babies with Down syndrome are born to young women because the number of births at this age is higher.
Down syndrome can be detected during pregnancy through screening and diagnostic tests.
Down syndrome screening tests (mongolism)
Screening tests show the chance or probability that the fetus has one of several specific diseases. In fact, this test cannot tell us for sure whether your baby has a problem or not. If the test result is positive, it means that the probability of having a defect is higher than others. That is why your doctor may give you diagnostic tests. to make sure that the fetus is healthy.
If the result of the screening test is negative, it means that the probability of the defect in your baby at birth is so low that it does not need to be followed up. But there is no guarantee that you will have a natural baby.
The advantage of screening tests is that there is no risk of abortion and it does not harm the fetus.
Down syndrome screening in the first trimester of pregnancy
The screening of the first trimester of pregnancy is a combined test including a maternal blood test and ultrasound. This screening can be part of a combination test or a step of a screening method. Down syndrome screening can be done in the first trimester between the 11th and 14th week of pregnancy, and the risk of Down syndrome (trisomy 21) and trisomy 13 and 18 is calculated by it.
This method consists of a blood test, during which the two substances PPAP-A and free hCG are measured in the mother’s blood, and ultrasound.
In ultrasound, the accumulation of fluid behind the neck of the fetus or NT is measured. In fact, this part may be a sign of Down syndrome or trisomy 18.
The sum of NT results, the mother’s blood test, and the mother’s age are interpreted together and a numerical risk is obtained based on which the next step can be decided.
In the screening of the first trimester of pregnancy, the power to detect Down syndrome is around 84%, that is, 84% of Down syndrome cases can be detected by using it, and 16% of cases remain undiagnosed and the babies are born sick. When the thickness of NT increases, the fetus may have a heart defect or other genetic condition. In this situation, your doctor may suggest additional tests for you during the 20th week of pregnancy.
Down syndrome screening in the second trimester of pregnancy
This screening, which is called Quadmarker or Quad Rappel or Quad for short, is performed to screen for Down syndrome, trisomy 18 and neural tube defects (ONTD), and SLOS syndrome. In this test, four substances alpha-fetoprotein, free estriol, hCG, and Ingibin A are measured in the mother’s blood.
This test is usually done between 15 and 20 weeks of pregnancy, but the best time to do it is 15 to 18 weeks. The age of the fetus at the time of the test plays a large role in calculating the risk. The best way to calculate the age of the fetus is by ultrasound, so it is better to bring your ultrasound report with you when you go to the laboratory. The detection power of the quad marker test is about 80% of cases of Down syndrome.
The AFP test performed in the quad test screens for neural tube defects (ONTD) in 80% of cases. Be careful that this test is only valid in the second trimester.
Integrated screening (Integrated)
The results obtained for the screening of the first trimester and the second trimester can be used in combination to increase the power of Down syndrome diagnosis. In this case, the power to diagnose Down syndrome reaches more than 90%. The final result is not ready until the last step (quad test) is completed. In fact, the ultrasound and blood test of the first stage is done between the 11th and 14th week of pregnancy, and the second stage blood test is done between the 15th and 18th week. Among the advantages of this method, we can mention the low false positive rate of this test and its high detection power of about 92%.
Sequential screening (Sequential)
In this method, first-trimester screening is performed, and based on the results of the first-trimester screening, pregnant women are divided into three categories: high-risk, medium-risk, and low-risk. High-risk women are referred for CVS (fetal chorionic villus sampling). Those who are at low risk do not need to have any other screening or diagnostic test, and only women who have moderate risk are candidates for second stage screening (Quad).
Diagnostic tests for Down syndrome (mongolism)
These tests can definitely show the existence of fetal defects and actually reject or confirm the screening tests.
The use of diagnostic tests such as amniocentesis carries the risk of miscarriage, that’s why such invasive methods are not recommended for all pregnant women despite their accuracy. Diagnostic tests are suggested when a high risk of Down syndrome is reported in the screening test.
* If the screening results indicate a high risk, the following tests are performed:
1- Molecular and non-invasive test (NIPT): The measurement of the free DNA of the fetus in the mother’s plasma (cell-free DNA) is released from the cells of the placenta. The reason for the non-invasive nature of NIPT is that only a few ccs of the mother’s blood is needed to perform this test.
2- CVS: In this method, small amounts of fetal cells are taken from the placenta with a special tool through the cervix. This work is sometimes done using a syringe and through the abdominal wall and care using sonography, then the obtained cells are tested.
3- Amniocentesis: In this test, a small amount of amniotic fluid, which contains a number of fetal cells, is taken with a syringe and with care through sonography. This test is performed between 16 and 20 weeks of pregnancy.
It should be noted that there is about a 1% risk of loss with CVS and amniocentesis, although the risk of CVS is higher.

Checkup test for children
- Anemia assessment tests
- Tests to evaluate inflammations and infections
- Type 1 diabetes assessment tests
- Obesity and overweight assessment tests
- Thyroid function evaluation tests
- Developmental assessment tests
- Assessment of lead poisoning
Anemia assessment
Many children and teenagers may suffer from anemia during their childhood, this problem will continue in the later years of their lives. The cause of iron deficiency in the body or a child’s anemia is the lack of iron in the blood.
The association between iron deficiency anemia and impaired motor, mental and behavioral development in infants is not a new discovery. In the late 1970s, the possibility of their connection was raised and subsequent studies on infants in the last two decades confirmed the findings. Movement, mental and behavioral effects appear only when the severity of iron deficiency is enough to cause anemia, and despite the correction of iron deficiency anemia, these effects are long-lasting.
Evaluation of inflammations and infections
Infection is one of the diseases that if it appears in a child, its treatment is not so simple and it needs medical care and treatment, but this disease, like other diseases, has different ways to prevent it, which can reduce the risk of contracting the disease.
Sometimes, if the disease is not treated on time, it may have complications even in the child’s adulthood, and even lead to the loss of important organs such as kidneys and dialysis in children, or cause disturbances in the functioning of the internal organs of the body.
In order to escape from these diseases, you must be aware of the symptoms of the disease, where they come from, and when they become dangerous.
Assessment of type 1 diabetes
In this disease, the pancreas does not produce enough insulin for your children’s bodies, and insulin must be replaced.
Type 1 diabetes in children is known as insulin-dependent diabetes and juvenile diabetes.
Diagnosing this disease seems difficult at first. Suddenly, you and the children have to learn to give injections according to your age, measure the number of carbohydrates consumed, and control blood sugar.
Although type 1 diabetes in children requires constant care, today’s advances in blood sugar and insulin administration have made the management of this disease easier.
Assessment of obesity and overweight
Considering the growth process and natural and physiological changes in weight and height, the correct definition of overweight and obesity as well as its evaluation in childhood and adolescence are of particular importance.
Adolescents are increasing in many countries of the world, even in countries where malnutrition caused by dietary deficiency is still a public health problem.
The evidence shows that obesity and being overweight during childhood will lead to adverse health, economic and social consequences in adulthood.
Evaluation of thyroid function
One of the complications that worry parents is thyroid in their child. Hypothyroidism in children and infants causes slow growth and obvious intellectual disability.
These symptoms do not show at birth. The age and severity of these symptoms depend on how well the thyroid gland is working.
Growth assessment
It is very important to evaluate the characteristics of physical growth, such as height, weight, head circumference, etc., which are summarized in physical examinations and special tests; Because if a child at this age has a delay in development, he needs therapeutic interventions.
Assessment of lead poisoning
Heavy metal poisoning, especially lead poisoning, is a special public health problem in children.
In urban communities, due to the growth and development of industries in cities and the increase in the amount of urban transportation, and the resulting pollution, this poisoning is a problem that has attracted a lot of attention.
Considering the effects of lead poisoning on children and its effects in preventing sufficient growth and reducing the level of intelligence and other side effects, the importance of evaluating this dangerous metal for children’s health is more important than ever.
When you want to help your child live a happy and healthy life, a growth checkup is very important and vital. Unfortunately, many parents do not take their children to the doctor when they are not sick, which actually causes problems over time.
Bringing your child to the doctor for regular check-ups helps the doctor understand what is normal for the child so illnesses are easily diagnosed. Fajr pathobiology laboratory offers child growth checkups using its modern facilities.

Anemia assessment
Iron deficiency anemia is the most common cause of anemia in women. This disease occurs due to a lack of iron in the diet, excessive excretion of blood in the long term (such as gastrointestinal bleeding), or malabsorption of iron.
The most common general symptoms of this disease are a feeling of weakness, constant tiredness or during activity and a general feeling of boredom, false dizziness, frequent viral diseases such as colds, spoon-shaped nails (pitting on the nail ), fornication such as eating dirt, eating ice, etc. And falling asleep and tingling of the hands and feet. And falling asleep and tingling of the hands and feet.
Diabetes assessment
Diabetes is one of the deadliest diseases in the world. This disease is more common among women who have breast cancer and causes diseases such as cardiovascular disease, stroke, kidney failure, and vision loss.
Unfortunately, complications related to diabetes are spreading in people because diabetes is diagnosed late and is difficult to control.
Early diagnosis and effective treatment of diabetes can significantly reduce the risk of serious complications.
Evaluation of liver function
The liver is responsible for many functions in the body. Having one of the liver diseases can cause the body’s processes to become inefficient and cause many complications.
In some cases, even liver diseases are fatal. Many liver diseases or diseases of other body organs that affect the liver cause pain.
Evaluation of kidney and urinary tract function
If the urinary tract or bladder infection is not treated early, it may go up to one or both kidneys and cause a full-fledged kidney infection (this infection is known as pyelonephritis).
Women are more prone to kidney infections than men.
Assessment of cardiovascular health
Women are twice as likely to have a second heart attack within six years of their first heart attack, And they don’t recover as well as men after bypass surgery or angioplasty.
Women suffering from cardiovascular diseases are more likely to have co-morbidities such as diabetes, causing disruption in the treatment and recovery of women from heart disease.
Assessment of bone status
The importance of osteoporosis is that it often has no symptoms until a bone fracture.
The spine, femur, pelvis, wrist, and end of the forearm are the most common places that fracture due to osteoporosis.
This disease is the biggest concern of middle-aged women. A problem that sooner or later will affect all of us; So prepare yourself to fight.
Evaluation of endocrine function
Changes in the secretion of endocrine glands have serious consequences for people and cause many problems that are more common in women than men.
Thyroid disorders are one of the most common diseases of the glands, especially in women, and this disorder is generally latent and asymptomatic, which can be detected by performing hormonal tests, and in some cases, it appears openly and with its own symptoms.
Screening for infections before pregnancy
Blood tests to check infection or diabetes and other underlying diseases before pregnancy.
Blood tests give you, your doctor, and your midwife useful information about your health. Problems related to pregnancy can also be detected.
Tumor markers
There are different types of tumor markers. Some are produced in a certain type of cancer and are so-called specific, and some are seen in different types of cancer.
To perform a tumor marker test, the doctor sends a sample of the patient’s urine or blood to the laboratory, and the marker is bound to the anti-tumor marker antibody made in the body.
Evaluation of autoimmune diseases
Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system acts against you and starts attacking healthy cells, among which women are more affected by such diseases than men.
Diagnosing autoimmune disease as soon as possible is the best way to slow its progression.
Men’s checkup panel
- Anemia assessment tests
- Diabetes assessment tests
- Liver function evaluation tests
- Kidney and urinary tract function evaluation tests
- Cardiovascular health assessment tests
- Endocrine function evaluation tests
- Tumor markers
Anemia assessment
Anemia is a blood disorder in which there is not enough hemoglobin in the blood. There are different types of anemia, each of which has its own cause. For adult men, hemoglobin less than 13 gr/dl is a sign of anemia.
Iron deficiency anemia is the most common type of anemia and due to lack of iron in nutrition, excessive excretion of blood occurs in the long term or malabsorption of iron, and the most common symptoms of anemia in men are feeling weak, Constant fatigue, or during activity and a feeling of general fatigue.
Diabetes assessment tests
Diabetes in men increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
It can also cause problems in your eyes, skin, kidneys, and nervous system. Erectile dysfunction (ED) and other urological problems have also been proven in these people.
Fortunately, many of these complications can be prevented or treated. The key is awareness and taking responsibility for your health.
Evaluation of liver function
The liver is generally responsible for purifying and purifying the blood, and if the blood is damaged, it becomes toxic. Other liver diseases include fatty liver, liver cirrhosis, hepatitis, and liver cancer.
Liver problems do not only affect this organ, but liver diseases are the underlying cause of many diseases, including kidney failure, thyroid problems, and many cancers.
If a person with liver problems goes to the doctor late, he/she will experience symptoms such as blood poisoning, nausea, diarrhea, confusion, and sleepiness, which can even lead to the person going into a coma and dying.
Evaluation of kidney and urinary tract function
The most common diseases in the field of kidney and urinary tract diseases are urinary stones and prostate diseases, and the prevalence of kidney stones in men is 2 to 3 times higher than in women, and at the same time, it is an annoying disease; It is painful and associated with many complications in such a way that in the acute stages, the patient falls to the ground.
Unfortunately, many men turn to doctors and treatment when they have missed the golden opportunities of cheap and less complicated treatment.
Assessment of cardiovascular health
Cardiovascular diseases are the most important cause of death worldwide. High blood pressure, high blood sugar and cholesterol, smoking, obesity, and insufficient consumption of fruits and vegetables are among the most important risk factors for this condition.
Unfortunately, the age of onset of cardiovascular diseases in men has reached 30 years, and although heart diseases have spread to younger ages all over the world, diagnostic methods have also increased, which can increase life expectancy and improve the process. get sick
Evaluation of endocrine function
The endocrine system affects how the heart beats, bone and tissue growth, and fertility.
These glands play a vital role in preventing or causing diabetes, thyroid, growth disorders, and sexual dysfunction and can lead to other related hormonal disorders.
Blood and urine tests will help your doctor identify an endocrine disorder
Tumor markers
The main purpose of using tumor markers is screening and early detection of cancer. Because at this time there is the most likely effect of the treatment.
It is necessary to mention that tumor markers are not diagnostic by themselves and the definitive diagnosis of cancer is made by seeing the cancerous tissue sample under the microscope by the pathologist.
Nevertheless, tumor markers give us information that is very important in the process of prognosis and treatment of the disease.
Elderly checkup panel
- Diabetes assessment tests
- Liver function evaluation tests
- Kidney and urinary tract function evaluation tests
- Cardiovascular health assessment tests
- Malignancy evaluation tests
- Rheumatism and motion sickness assessment tests
Diabetes assessment
In the elderly, the lack of blood sugar control over time can increase the risk of microvascular diseases (diseases of the small vessels of the body, including capillaries) and macrovascular diseases (diseases of the large vessels of the body).
Further, it leads to chronic diseases, cognitive impairment, depression, urinary incontinence, falls, and constant pain.
Evaluation of liver function
With age, various changes occur in the human liver, which can have a significant impact on the quality of life of patients.
The volume and size of the liver and its blood flow decrease significantly with age.
Evaluation of kidney and urinary tract function
Chronic kidney disease is a potentially very common disease in the elderly and leads to increased mortality in this age group.
Another medical problem related to kidney diseases in the elderly is high arterial blood pressure.
On the other hand, it is well established that the prevalence of urinary tract infections (UTIs) increases with age.
Assessment of cardiovascular health
Cardiovascular changes in the elderly have an adverse effect on their quality of life and longevity. Coronary artery disease is the most common cause of death in the elderly.
However, cardiac arrhythmia and heart valvular diseases are also particularly important at this age. Diagnosis of these disorders in the elderly requires special attention.
because it is possible to associate physiological structural changes due to aging with cardiovascular disease; The occurrence of classic symptoms of the disease can change its form and lead to delays in the treatment of these patients.
Evaluation of malignancies
Considering that increasing age is one of the underlying factors of cancer, with the increasing age of the population, the number of people with cancer also increases.
Also, cancer is the first cause of death between the ages of 65-75 years, and about 60% of this disease is diagnosed in people over 70 years old.
Evaluation of rheumatism and motion sickness
Due to the fact that immobility leads to many complications in the elderly and threatens their health, the set of physical, metabolic, and mental symptoms disturbs the balance of the elderly.
Immobility in the elderly is associated with heart damage, heart failure, or reduced activity tolerance.
