Background: Diabetes has long-term complications and therefore affects the health of the community in addition to the individual. Diabetes can have significant psychological effects on health and delay the recovery of the disease. Objective: This study aimed to determine the causal model of health-related quality of life based on subjective well-being and sleep quality mediating by self-care behaviors in diabetic patients. Methods: This correlational study was conducted using the path analysis statistical method. The statistical population included all middle-aged patients with diabetes who were referred to the endocrinologists of Bushehr province in 2019, among whom 195 people were selected by the available sampling method. Data obtained by SF-36 Health-Related Quality of Life Questionnaire, Diabetes self-care questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Questionnaire, and Mental Well-Being Scale. The data were analyzed using the path analysis method using SPSS.22 and Amos.22 software. Results: The results showed that both the variables of sleep quality and mental well-being through self-care had a direct and significant relationship with quality of life (p <0.001). The direct relationship between sleep quality and quality of life was not significant. But there was a significant direct relationship between mental well-being and quality of life (p <0.001). Conclusion: It can be concluded that sleep quality and mental well-being affect the self-care that the patient chooses, they can predict the quality of life of diabetic patients.

Introduction: Considering that the health and illness of women can directly affect the general health of the family and society, and the problems originated from this disease not only affect the patients, but also exert a deleterious effect on the members of the family and undermine the foundation of the family. Thus, research on factors associated with the psychological issues of these patients can urge policy makers and healthcare professionals to pay greater attention to this issue. The aim of this study is to determine whether the quality of life of patients with breast cancer could be predicted by spirituality, self-forgiveness and self-blame. Methods: This is a descriptive correlational study in which 120 cancer patients admitted to two university hospitals were selected using cluster-sampling method. The research instruments were the Paloutzian and Ellison’s Spiritual Well-Being Scale (1), self-forgiveness and self-blame scales and World Health Organization Quality of Life questionnaire. According to the level of data and statistical assumptions, multiple linear regression was used to test the hypotheses Results: The results of statistical analysis showed that the components of spiritual wellness, existential wellness, anxiety control and realistic perception were related to the quality of life at a significantly level of 5%. The positive value of these coefficients actually indicates that by improving these components, the quality of life could be enhanced. Also, it was found that negative attitude and self-blame were in a negative relationship with the quality of life. Conclusion: The present study investigated the relationship between spirituality, self-forgiveness and self-blame with quality of life, with the results indicating that personal-level variables, i.e. spirituality, self-forgiveness and self-blame affect the quality of life

Background and Objectives: Most deaths occur unpredictably and usually outside of health care facilities; while could be predicted by Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). Whatever, the success rate of this procedure is affected by many factors and the aim of this study was to evaluate CPR outcomes and determine theassociated factors.Materials and Methods: This descriptive retrospective study was conducted in 2018 in a private hospital in Mashhad. Census method was used for sampling, and all the patients who underwent CPR were included in the study. Meanwhile, those who had signs of death and/ or those with incomplete medical records excluded from the study. Moreover, data were provided through the Statistics, Medical Records as well as Quality Improvement units.Results:In this study, 394 medical records were evaluated, out of which 224(56.9%) were male and 170(43.1%) were female. Totally, 96(24.4%) successful and 298(75.6%) unsuccessful CPR were recorded. There was a significant correlation between age of the patientand successful CPR (P=0.011).Conclusion:Results of the study showed that the success rate of CPR will be higher, if the patient is young, duration of CPR is short, and the patient has a non-cardiac underlying disease.

Background: Due to considerable importance of education among children with intellectual disability, present study aimed at examination of effective factors on social skills curriculum among the students with mental retardation. Materials and methods: The statistical universe included all experts in organization of exceptional students’ education, all curriculum planning specialists in vocational high-school grade and all teachers of high-school mentally retarded students in Busher Province. Using Cochran’s formula, the statistical sample was selected through simple random sampling. A total number of 40 experts of exceptional students’ education, 80 curriculum planners and 93 teachers answered the questionnaire. The researcher-generated questionnaire was used for data collection. Results: The analyses suggest teachers’ belief on less suitability of vocational high-school curricula to social interests of such students, less individual self-sufficiency achievement among graduates and an insignificant role in vocational rehabilitation of mentally retarded students. Conclusion: More efforts should be taken to improve social interests and willingness, self-sufficiency and vocational rehabilitation of intellectual disabled children.

Materials: It was a quasi-experimental study with pretest-posttest design and control group. The statistical population consisted of all men with drug abuse referring to Torbat-e-Heydariyeh Adult Drug Abuse Clinic in 2018, 60 of whom were selected by simple random sampling for two experimental groups (DBT, CFT) and a control group. The experimental group was trained for 10 90-min sessions, but the control group was on the waiting list and received no training. Demographic questionnaire and in vitro serum levels of cortisol and serotonin were used for data collection before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) in spss 24 software. Results: The results of multivariate analysis of covariance showed that in the two groups of dialectical and compassionate-focused behavioral therapy, intervention on self-control and blood cortisol had a significant effect on post-test (p

Background and objective: In recent decades, emphasis on diet and thinness has been considered by all social and racial classes. This study aimed to compare the cognitive-behavioral approach's effectiveness and rational-emotional behavior therapy in reducing social anxiety in overweight adolescents. Methods: The research method was quasi-experimental with pre-test and post-test design with the control and two-month follow-up. The statistical population of this study consisted of male and female adolescents who had been referred to clinics in Tehran in 2019 with overweight and obesity problems, among whom 60 were selected by convenience sampling method. After selecting the subjects, they were randomly assigned to experimental and one control groups. Interventions in both groups were group therapy and consisted of eight sessions for 120 minutes. Data were obtained by social anxiety questionnaire and analyzed using repeated-measures ANOVA and SPSS.22 software. The significance level in this study was considered to be 0.05. Results: The results showed that cognitive-behavioral approaches and rational-emotional behavior therapy effectively reduced social anxiety in overweight adolescents (p <0.001). However, there was no significant difference between the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral and rational emotional behavior therapy on social anxiety. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the cognitive-behavioral approach and rational-emotional behavior therapy can have positive effects on reducing social anxiety in adolescents.
