Background and Objectives Marriage is one of the effective factors that can promote mental health and lifestyle and reduce the risk of individual and social disorders. This study aims to prioritize the criteria for partner selection according to the perceptions of female students of Qom University of Medical Sciences (QUMS) in 2017. Methods: This is descriptive-analytical study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in 2017. The study population consists of all single female students of QUMS, of whom 373 were selected by multi-stage sampling method. The instrument was the 22-item Preference Criteria of Spouse Selection Inventory (PCSSI) with acceptable validity and reliability. Data were analyzed in SPSS software, version 20 statistical software using descriptive statistics and Friedman’s test, Chi-square test, t-test, and one-way analysis of variance. Results: The age range of the participants was 18-38 years, and their semester range was 1-15. The results of Friedman test showed a significant difference between the mean ranks of partner selection criteria. Mental health had the highest priority, while being from the same ethnicity had the lowest priority. There was a significant negative correlation between age and importance of partner selection criteria (P<0.001). In addition, there was a significant difference between students with associate degree and the students with bachelor’s degree, master’s degree, and PhD degree in terms of the importance of partner selection criteria (P<0.001). Conclusion: Female students of QUMS pay more attention to mental health, responsibility, and chastity criteria in choosing a partner.

Background and Objectives: Women during pregnancy are high risk for contracting coronavirus disease 21019 (COVID-19), and vaccination is probably the best way to prevent it during this period. This study aims to survey perceptions of COVID-19 vaccination among Pregnant Mothers in Qom, Iran. Methods: This is a qualitative study using the content analysis approach, Semi-structured interviews were used to collect information. Participants were 22 pregnant mothers living in Qom city who were eligible for vaccination, but had not yet been vaccinated. Results: The results of content analysis led to the extraction of three main themes: vaccine acceptance (lack of knowledge and awareness, lack of trust in news, advice from others), vaccine safety (unknown side effects of vaccine on the mother and the fetus/newborn), and vaccine effectiveness (effectiveness of the vaccine for the mother and the fetus/newborn). Conclusion: The pregnant mothers in Qom avoid COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy due to the lack of knowledge and awareness, lack of trust in the news, and advice from others. They are also worried about the unknown side effects of the vaccine on the mother, the fetus or newborn and have no knowledge of the effectiveness of the vaccine for the mother, the fetus or newborn.

Background and Objectives: Validation of the tools used for assessing the quality of life (QoL) can help address the problems of patients with COVID-19 in Iran. Therefore, this study aims to validate the electronic form of the Persian version of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) questionnaire for Iranian patients with COVID-19. Methods: This is a psychometric study. The study population included all patients with COVID-19 in Tehran, Iran. Samples were selected by a cluster sampling method. In this regard, 100 patients were selected for determining the criterion validity and 330 were selected for assessing the convergence validity. The research data were collected electronically by using Hlubocky et al.’s HRQoL questionnaire and the World Health Organization quality of life-BREEF (WHOQoL-BREF) questionnaire. Content validity, convergence validity, and factor analysis methods were used to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Persian HRQoL. The reliability was assessed by internal consistency and split-half methods. Results: The results of exploratory factor analysis showed that the questionnaire had two factors. It had also good validity and reliability. The second-order confirmatory factor analysis confirmed its two-factor structure. Its score had good relationship with the score of WHOQoOL-BREF. Conclusion: The electronic form of the Persian HRQoL can be used to assess the QoL of patients with COVID-19 in Iran.

Background and Objectives: Health system policy is one of the most important issues for policy makers and managers in the health system. This study aims to present a health system policy model based on the statement of “the second phase of the revolution” and using the economic resistance approach. Methods: This is a qualitative study using grounded theory. Participants were selected by purposive and snowball sampling techniques. The data was collected by conducting in-depth and semi-structured interviews with 11 faculty members, deputies, and managers of Arak University of Medical Sciences and Qom University of Medical Sciences in Iran. The concepts for the paradigmatic model were extracted after open, axial, and selective coding. Then, the structural equation modeling was conducted using non-parametric partial least squares method. Results: Initially, 408 codes were obtained, which were reduced to 260 after screening using the content validity index. In this regard, 40 sub-themes and 13 main themes were extracted which included: Causal factors (management issues, human resources management, processes/methods), strategies (priority of prevention over treatment, health resource management, cultural enrichment, promotion of human capital in healthcare, and improvement of methods), intervening factors (economic, social, technological, and political), contextual factors, governance factors, and consequences (promoting the society health, improving economic efficiency of medical universities). Conclusion: The health system policy model based on the economic resistance approach can help promote the society health and improve the economic efficiency of medical universities in Iran.

Background and Objectives: Heart Failure (HF) can cause poor quality of life (QoL). Self-care can lead to desirable outcomes in health. Orem’s self-care model is one of the methods that include patients in care and emphasizes self-care. This study aims to review various studies used Orem’s self-care model to assess the QoL of HF patients. Methods: This is a systematic review study that was conducted from October to December 2021. The search was conducted in Web of Science, MagIran, Irandoc, IranMedex, Information Database Scientific (SID), Scopus, Cochran, Google Scholar and PubMed databases for related studies in both Persian and English without time limit using the keywords heart failure, self-care, Orem, and QoL in Persian and English with “AND” and “OR” operators. The Critical Appraisal Skills Programme Checklist was used to check the quality of articles. Finally, of 865837 found articles,12 eligible articles were reviewed. Results: Based on Orem’s self-care model, the QoL of patients with HF was at a moderate level. QoL was significantly associated with age, gender, number of children, level of education, occupation, living in an urban area, ejection fraction, length of hospital stay, recreational activities, self-care behaviors, self-care education, management, self-confidence, functional capacity, underlying diseases, comorbidity, depression, anxiety, and personality type D. Conclusion: Considering the positive effect of using Orem’s self-care model on the QoL of patients with HF, health care providers are recommended to use this model to improve the QoL of patients with HF.

Background and Objectives: The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) not only threatened the physical health and caused death in some cases, but also caused psychological problems and unbearable pressures. This study aims to investigate the fear of COVID-19 and anxiety among people over 18 years of age in Kermanshah, Iran. Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study that was conducted in 2021 on 400 men and women aged >18 years in Kermanshah city. Data collection tools included a demographic form, a researcher-made fear of COVID-19 questionnaire, and the Beck Anxiety Inventory. Data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics in SPSS v.19 software. The significance level was set at 0.05. Results: It was reported that 5.5% had low fear, 75.3% had moderate fear, and 19.2% had high fear of COVID-19, 60. Moreover, 1% had mild anxiety, 38.1% had moderate anxiety and 1.8% had severe anxiety. Fear of COVID-19 was higher in married people, people with a large household size, and those with higher educational level (P<0.001). Among the demographic variables, only the educational level was significantly associated with anxiety (P<0.001), where those with higher educational level had more anxiety. The results of correlation test showed that the fear of COVID-19 had a positive and significant relationship with anxiety. Conclusion: The fear of COVID-19 has a positive and significant relationship with anxiety.
