The outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) in December 2019 has led to the epidemic of Covid-19 Recent clinical studies have shown that parts of the nervous system;Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are involved in SARS-CoV-2 infection, which is associated with a variety of neurological manifestations such as headache, dizziness, and olfactory and gustatory disorders This study provides an overview of the Pubmed, Google Scholar and Scopus databases;and the keywords SARS-CoV-2, Covid-19, ACE2 and the nervous system were used to find articles related to the clinical data of SARS-CoV-2 invasion of the nervous system The published articles retrieved from 1992 to 2020 The findings suggest that coronaviruses invade the human nervous system and cause severe neurological changes Therefore, given that the SARS-CoV-2 specific receptor;ACE2 is abundant in the central nervous system, and the neurological and invasive properties of other human coronaviruses have been widely reported, it is essential to identify possible complications of COVID-19 on the nervous system

Background and Aim: Increasing the prevalence of diabetes requires a change in concepts related to diabetes management and treatment programs. This change must be switch from the physical variables to psychosocial factors. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of the Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) on psychological hardiness, caring behavior and coping styles of patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: The present study was a quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test intervention with a control group. The population consisted of diabetic patients who were referred to Besat Hospital in Tehran, Iran in 2020. Patients were randomly assigned into three groups of 20 people. One group trained by using the ACT approach in eight 2hour sessions. Other groups trained by CBT approach in an eight 1-hour sessions training. The control group didn't receive any training. The data collection tools consisted of the Kobasa psychological hardiness questionnaire (1979), the Endler & Parker coping styles (1990), and the Toobert Hampson, Glasgow self-care questionnaire

Background and Aim: A healthy lifestyle is a valuable resource for reducing health problems and promoting health, and improving the quality of life. In the present study, the effect of interprofessional spiritual health education on the lifestyle of military students was determined. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted between March 2018 and June 2019. A total of 110 final senior nursing and paramedical students studying at Aja University of Medical Sciences were randomly selected and assigned to two groups of control and intervention. Spiritual health educational intervention was performed in the form of 2 workshops (4 to 6 hours) for the intervention group. Standard questionnaires of spiritual health and health-promoting lifestyle were completed in pre-test and post-test by both groups. Results: The findings indicate a significant effect of interprofessional spiritual health education on the lifestyle of military students. The highest effect for the variable of responsibility for health and nutrition with the observed effect was 0.49 and the least effective for the variable of interpersonal relationships with the observed t was 0.10. Conclusion: Considering the significant effect of interprofessional spiritual health education on students' lifestyle, it is necessary for education officials to take serious action to review and update the content and curricula and to include the topic of "spiritual health”.

Background and Aim: Post-traumatic growth is a relatively new concept in psychology, and refers to the positive interpersonal changes that occur after a person is exposed to traumatic events. The purpose of this study is to develop and validate the post-traumatic growth protocol for war veterans. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2018. The statistical population included Iranian veterans of eight years of holy defense who referred to Tehran medical centers. 406 veterans from this community were selected by convenience sampling. Data was collected by the Tedeschi and Calhoun Post-Impact Growth Index (PTGI) and the demographic information questionnaire, then analyzed by SPSS-21 software. The protocol developed by the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation (AGREE) was reviewed by expert panels. Also, the content validity index (CVI) and Content Validity Relative (CVR) were calculated in this protocol. Results: Protocol validation show 97.77% vision and goal, 91.66% stakeholder participation, 98.09% accuracy and methodology of formulation, 97.5% explanation and presentation, 96.66% usability, 100% editing independence. In the final evaluation section, 90% of experts recommended the use of this protocol. Also, the CVI was 94% and the CVR was 86%. Conclusion: The results showed that the post-traumatic growth protocol designed for war veterans for 8 sessions and each session for 120 minutes has the appropriate validity and reliability and can be used by psychologists and experts to help the well-being of veterans.

Background and Aim: Neck pain is a common disease and a relatively early disorder among military personnel. Neck pain causes disability, reduced quality of life, productivity, combat readiness of forces, and increased health care costs. The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors associated with neck pain in male military Personnel. Methods: In this case-control study, 200 male military personnel with chronic neck pain and 200 healthy military personnel were evaluated by simple random sampling. A three-part questionnaire (demographic, occupational and clinical information) with closed questions, NDI (Neck Disability Index), Job Related Physical Demands questionnaire (JRPD), Health Risk Appraisals questionnaire (HRA) was used as the tools. For both groups, four questionnaires were completed, then the relationship between risk factors associated with neck pain in both groups was determined. Results: The demographic data (age, height, weight, work experience) was matched between both groups. Among the factors studied, there were positive significant relationships between neck pain with hard job titles (p=0.010), prolong work experience (p=0.002), heavy and continuous physical activity (p=0.011), exercises of neck shoulders and shoulder belt (p=0.002), movements associated with lifting a heavy load of more than 25 kg (p=0.002), daily working hours (p=0.007), deformity in dorsal and cervical spine (p=0.002), movements with bending and righting (p=0.002), neck rotation (p=0.005), movements accompanied by heavy load displacement from the height above the shoulder (p=0.002) and awkward posture (p=0.004). Also, there were negative significant relationships between neck pain with attendance in exercise programs (P=0.003), body mass index (p=0.025) education level (p=0.003), smoking (p=0.017), duration of neck pain (p=0.002), history of neck pain (p=0.010) carrying heavy bags and objects by shoulder belt (p=0.002), and duration of exercise in male military

The aim of this study was to review the mental health of Iranian soldiers and its influencing factors. Methods: In this systematic review study, papers published over a period of 15 years between the years 20042019 were reviewed. Electronic search in Persian and English with the keywords; soldiers' health, military mental health, soldiers' mental disorders, army, armed forces and soldiers in Scopus, Pubmed, Google Scholar, SID, iranMagiran, Medlib and Iranmedex was done. In the initial search; 615 papers related to soldiers’ mental health were obtained. In the screening stage, 286 papers were retrieved and according to the exclusion and inclusion criteria, 18 papers were selected. Results: According to the studies, it can be said that the mental health status of Iranian soldiers is dependent on two general categories of external (family environment, economic, cultural and psychological factors) and internal factors (existing facilities, commanders' approach, type of duty). And the manner of training). The results of this study showed that some Iranian soldiers suffer from mental disorders such as depression, anxiety, sleep disorders, drug addiction, personality problems including paranoid, mania, schizophrenia, hysteria and narcissism. Numerous factors including individual, family, social, economic, cultural, managerial and organizational factors affect their mental health status.
