Abstract
Aims: Knee osteoarthritis is the most common joint disease. It has more prevalence and severity in women than in men. The aim of this research was to compare the navicular drop (ND) and hallux deviation (HD) in women with different knee osteoarthritis (OA) based on the radiographic grades of 1 to 4.
Instruments and Methods: The present research was a descriptive cross-sectional and causal-comparative study. The study population included women with knee osteoarthritis in Tehran. The statistical sample included 87 female patients with knee osteoarthritis, who were selected based on the simple purposive and non-probability sampling method from patients referring to specialized clinics and Akhtar Hospital in 2015. The number of knees with knee OA was 168, which were divided into 4 groups based on the Kellgren-Lawrence grading scale. One-way analysis of variance was used to compare the difference between the groups in terms of the amount of navicular drop and the hallux deviation, and for significant results, Tukey's post hoc test was applied.
Findings: There was a significant difference between the first and second groups regarding the extent of ND, which was mostly observed in Group 2. It was non-significantly higher in Group 4 in comparison with Group 3 and higher in Group 3 than in Group 1. The mean of HD increased from Group 1 to 4 but not significantly.
Conclusion: Higher drop in navicular is a risk factor for the development of knee osteoarthritis radiographic grades.

Abstract
Aims: This study is aimed at developing a university-based incubators taking into account accelerators. The university-based incubators are one of the key elements of sustainable entrepreneurial ecosystems, which act as the entrepreneurship ombudsman. Improving the model’s incubators would foster innovation and commercialization of research. Methods: This study, using a qualitative approach based on Grounded theory, was conducted through the theoretical sampling and data gathering from among 18 academic entrepreneurs who could benefited from acceleration centers services, incubators managers and experts, accredited managers and experts in accelerators as well as experts in the field of research concepts. Also, the data were analyzed using interview tools during three common coding steps in the Glaser approach. Conclusion: The findings show that the acceleration characteristics in the incubator model are determined by the indicators identified in this study as center features. Accelerator-based incubators need to use strategies such as modeling successful international examples, validating ideas and business, accessing to the Internet to achieve their goals. Finally, the results indicate the impact of environmental contexts and such as stakeholders. Applying the resulting model can lead to various outcomes such as promoting the interests of academic entrepreneurs, creating jobs, transferring knowledge and technology, creating sustainable business, creating new businesses and social benefits.

Abstract
Incubation with an acceleration approach results in promoting the interests of academic entrepreneurs, employment, transfer of knowledge and technology, creating sustainable organization, new businesses, social benefits, improving business survival rates, accelerating business creation, fostering innovation, entrepreneurship and economic development of the country. However, few studies have examined the causes that influence such consequences. This survey and applied research aims to study and identify factors affecting the outcomes of incubation with acceleration approach and the role of networking, financial support as well as technical facilities in this regard were assessed. The required data collected through a questionnaire from a sample of 45 managers and staff of 15 academic incubators in Tehran province and the data analysis was performed through correlation and regression methods. Research findings indicate that three variables of networking, finance and technical facilities have positive effects on incubation outcomes in academic incubators. In addition, the adjusted coefficient of determination indicates that these three variables account for 0.53 variations in incubation outcomes.

Abstract
Entrepreneurial learning as one of the most important learning skills among students of different academic disciplines needs a more detailed study in online-learning environment. Since online platforms can provide online entrepreneurial learning opportunities. This study examines the effects of online social resources on knowledge acquisition and improving the entrepreneurial learning process among e-university students. The study in terms of purpose is applied research and descriptive-correlational in terms of data collection. Data are collected using a researcher-made questionnaire by simple random sampling method and were by structural an equation modeling approach. Cronbach's alpha for all structures is higher than 0/7 and the value of mean variance extracted is higher than 0/5, so validity and reliability of the structures are confirmed. The findings indicate a positive and significant relationship between online social resources and knowledge acquisition as well as between knowledge acquisition and entrepreneurial learning. Using the advent of web-based technologies, this study can be valuable in explaining how different aspects of online social resources can enhance the effectiveness of entrepreneurial learning for students in multiple social environments.
