Abstract(Please copy/paste the abstract send to the congress) : Abstract:
introduction:
Osteoporosis is a multifactorial disease. Of particular considerations are toxic heavy metals such as cadmium and lead which may involve in an oxidative stress system. The aim of this study was to present data for the association of plasma cadmium and lead levels with bone mineral density (BMD) in Iranian women.
Methods:
In this cross-sectional study, Participants (n=135) were selected by inclusion and exclusion criteria from women who were referred to Jamie Clinic in Tehran, Iran for BMD evaluation. Plasma samples of fasting blood withdrawal were analyzed for cadmium and lead concentration levels by anodic stripping voltametry method.
Results:
No differences were found in the nutritional status, number of diseases, drugs and functional activities between these groups. Total patients (TP, n=49; T-score<-1) were divided into mild patients (M; -1>T-score> -1.7), and severe patients (S; -1.7>Tscore).
Mean± SD plasma level of lead and cadmium was 168.42±9.61 and 2.91±0.18 ng/ml in control group (n=51; Tscore-1), 176.13±8.64 and 2.97±0.21 ng/ml in TP, 176.43±13.20 and 2.99±0.10 ng/ml in M patients and 221.44±20 and 3.80±0.70 ng/ml in S patient group, respectively.

Conclusions:
The results showed that: 1) plasma level of cadmium and lead was higher in patients than control 2) the difference was higher between control and group S who had more acute disease than group M ,and finally 3) femoral neck T-score showed a negative and significant correlation with plasma levels of lead in all participants (p<0.05, r = -0.201). So it seems that cadmium and lead has a role in osteoporosis.

Please inform us if there are any follow up actions we need to talk with the members of the congress : 41st Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society of Toxicology (JSOT) was held on July 2-4, 2014 at the Kobe Convention Center.
The Kobe Convention Center, consisting of the Kobe International Conference Center and Kobe International Exhibition Hall (just a few minute walk from each other), is easily reached from Kansai International Airport (KIX). The city of Kobe, located near Osaka and Kyoto, has a long and unique history as a major port town introducing various foreign cultures to Japan .
 
Your experiences about the travel processes(Providing ticket, accommodation,...) : the ticket was too expensive without any support from the university, unfortunately.
Please give a briefing of your own observations and outcomes of the congress: : the meeting was preparing a variety of lectures, symposia, and workshops. Attendees learned about new findings in Toxicology via platform and poster sessions, settings where they can closely interact with other scientists in intense-yet-friendly atmospheres. In addition, the Annual Meeting will be playing host to a huge exposition where attendees introduced to new technologies and products that might be useful in supporting their research.
During this ongoing period of continual integration of new knowledge and technology into Toxicology, it has become clear that there is a growing need for greater scientific precision during investigations that could contribute to the protection of people from various chemical hazards. Throughout its past annual meetings, the JSOT is proud to have been a forum for meeting participants to convey their latest scientific achievements in the field of Toxicology. Continuing along this line, the main theme for the 41st Annual Meeting has been set as “Translation from Basic to Applied Research”.
