Abstract
Background: Celiac sprue (gluten sensitive enteropathy) is an autoimmune disease which is hereditary and its pathology mainly bases on immunologic intolerance to gluten. It has a vast variety of signs and symptoms and its clinical features range from a silent disease to a typical gastrointestinal disorder. In this study we reviewed and summarized some other related issues about this disease and its relation with infertility.
Case: The case is a 26 years old lady who had referred to a gynecologist because of infertility for 2 years and later it revealed that she has celiac sprue. Conclusion: Screening for its silent or subtle types especially among suspicious cases such as unexplained infertility seems to be a cost effective action. Meanwhile, in time administration of a gluten-free diet can lead to an almost complete cure.

Abstract
Background: Low bone mass is a major health problem in postmenopausal women.There is no general agreement regarding relationship between serum level of lipidsand bone mineral density.
Objective: This study was carried out to investigate the association between lipidprofile and bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women in Yazd, Iran.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 170 womenaged between 50 and 70 years old with menopause for at least one year from Yazd,Iran, between March 2013 to September 2013. Association of lipid profile and BMDwere measured in all study participants.
Results: Among our participants 73 cases had lumbar osteoporosis, 17 cases hadfemoral osteoporosis and 80 cases did n’t have osteoporosis. After controlling forbody mass index, there were no correlations between serum level of lipids and bonemineral density of femur and lumbar bones.
Conclusion: No significant association between serum level of lipids and BMD offemur and lumbar was found in postmenopausal women

Abstract
Many studies have focused on male infertility. There is limited evidence about the influence of nutrition on quality of semen. Approximately, 30-80% of infertility cases are caused by oxidative stress and decreased level of seminal total antioxidant capacity. This study was aimed to review the effects of oral antioxidant supplements on improving major semen parameters such as sperm concentration, motility, morphology, DNA damage, and fertility rate. Data were extracted from PubMed and Google scholar database by using the terms “antioxidant”, “multivitamin”, “carnitine”, “CoQ10”, “vitamin C”, “vitamin E”, “zinc”, “folic acid”, “N-acetyl cysteine” and “selenium” combined with “male infertility”, “semen”, and “sperm” to generate a set of relevant citations. Supplements such as CoQ10 and alpha-tocopherol significantly improve sperm count. Also, carnitine has positive effects on sperm motility and morphology. Simultaneous administration of vitamin E and vitamin C reduces the sperm DNA damage. However, in some studies, one or more factors have not changed substantially. In most of the studies, antioxidant supplementation improved the number, motility, morphology and sometimes DNA integrity of sperm. The present study showed that antioxidant supplements, especially a combination of antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin E, and CoQ10 intake can effectively improve semen parameters in infertile men
