Rapa Nui (Easter Island)’s Stone Worlds
No full textThis article explores the spatial, architectural and conceptual relationships between landscape places, stone quarrying, and stone moving and building during Rapa Nui’s statue-building period. These are central themes of the ‘Rapa Nui Landscapes of Construction Project’ and are discussed using aspects of the findings of our recent fieldwork. The different scales of expression, from the detail of the domestic sphere to the monumental working of quarries, are considered. It is suggested that the impressiveness of Rapa Nui’s stone architecture is its conceptual coherence at the small scale as much as at the large scale. </div

Relationship between Urolithiasis and Nutrition in Patients with Urinary Stones in Ardabil City
No full textBackground & Objectives: Urolithiasis is the third common urinary disease. While,
relationship between the urinary stones and diet is known to some extent, but there are
controversies about it. The aim of this study was to determine the association between food
habit, nutrients intake and kinds of urinary stone disease.
Methods: This cross-sectional and descriptive analytical study was performed on 150 patients
(91 male and 59 females) with urinary stone disease in Ardabil during 2008-2009. Data of
urinary stones analysis, type of stone in the graph, type of stone, preventive emprise and type
of drinking water were recorded. Food data were recorded using 24-hour dietary recalls three
days in week and food frequency questionnaires. Data were analyzed using SPSS, Food
Processor III software, and ANOVA Statistical program.
Results: Findings showed that the most common and lowest form of urinary stone disease in
men and women were calcium oxalate and ammonium phosphate, respectively. There was
significant inverse association between beta-carotene intake and the percentage of uric acid
stone disease (p<0.05). We observed significant relationship between vitamin A and folacin
intake with percentage of uric acid stone disease (p<0.05). There was significant relationship
between consumption of cheese and pickles with calcium phosphate stone disease (p<0.05).
There was no significant association between other foods and nutrients intake with types of
urinary stone disease.
Conclusion: This study showed the consumption of some nutrients including folacin, vitamin
A and some foods such as cheese was associated with the incidence of urinary stone disease.
Therefore, taking accurate diet could possibly prevent the incidence of urinary stone diseases
