Background: To date, there is no studies have examined the response to loss and grief in disasters because the impact of disasters is seen in the form of psychopathology. Researching grief can provide pivotal information for developing tailored instruments and interventions especially in nursing. Purpose: This study will explore various loss and grief experiences and coping strategies experienced by survivors of the eruption of Mount Semeru in East Java, Indonesia. Methods: This study uses a qualitative approach with phenomenological methods. There were six informants in this study drawn from various professions and survivors who fled both in refugee camps and in residents' homes. Results: There are three categories of grief responses: denial, anger, and acceptance. Coping strategies focus on emotions and problem-solving. The grieving response experienced by respondents does not have to go through the phases of denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Conclusion: These show that differences in grieving responses are influenced by the background of the events experienced, previous grieving experiences, gender, culture, and others. Most of the communities affected by the eruption of Mount Semeru have low coping mechanisms.

Context: Menorrhagia is an important healthcare challenge. Complementary and alternative medicine therapies are strategies with potential positive effects on menorrhagia. Objectives: The aim of this study was to systematically assess the effects of herbal products on menorrhagia. Methods: This was a systematic review and meta-analysis. PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, Barekat Gostar, Scientific Information Database (SID), Magiran, and IranDoc international and Iranian databases, in addition to the Google Scholar search engine, were searched without any time or language limitation (updated until 02.07.2022). Eligible studies were combined through the random-effects model based on their sample sizes, mean scores, and standard deviations. Data analysis was performed at a significance level of less than 0.05 using STATA software (version 14.0). Results: Nineteen trials on 1715 women (856 and 859 subjects in the control and intervention groups, respectively) were reviewed. After the intervention, menstrual bleeding severity in the first, second, and third cycles (P < 0.001) and the number of menstrual days in the first (P < 0.001), second (P < 0.001), and third (P = 0.487) menstrual cycles significantly decreased in the herbal products group. There were no significant between-group differences regarding the bleeding severity at the pretest (P < 0.001) and in the third cycle (P < 0.001) and the number of menstrual days at the pretest (P = 0.131) and in the second (P < 0.001) and third cycles (P = 0.014). However, the bleeding severity in the intervention group was significantly less than the control group in the first (P < 0.001) and second cycles (P < 0.001), and the number of menstrual days in the intervention group was significantly less than the control group in the first cycle (P = 0.004). Conclusions: Herbal products are effective in significantly reducing bleeding severity and the number of menstrual days among women with menorrhagia, and their effects reduce over time.

Background: The numerous pre-hospital emergency medicine operational staff interactions with different people cause many conflicts. In addition to affecting their physical and mental health, these conflicts lead to severe problems for the health of society and patients. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the relationship between resilience and conflict management styles from the perspective of pre-hospital emergency medicine operational staff of the Medical Emergency and Accident Management Center in Golestan Province in 2022. Methods: This descriptive correlational study recruited 200 operational staff working in the pre-hospital emergency center in Golestan Province. They were selected using a stratified sampling method with proportional allocation. The data were collected using a demographic questionnaire, the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), and the Rahim Organizational Conflict Inventory-II (ROCI-II). Results: Pearson correlation results demonstrated a direct and significant relationship between resilience and conflict management styles (P = 0.011, r = 0.180); the resilience score increased with an increase in the score of conflict management styles. In addition, resilience was directly associated with compromising (P = 0.012, r = 0.178) and integrating styles (P = 0.001, r = 0.276). Finally, a direct and significant relationship existed between job interest and resilience (P = 0.01). The linear regression analysis showed a significant relationship between the resilience score and the score of conflict management styles (β = 0.17). Conclusions: Resilience can improve the conflict management styles of pre-hospital emergency medicine operational staff. Moreover, job interest can enhance resilience, indirectly affecting conflict management. Pre-hospital emergency managers and officials should hold resilience training courses for pre-hospital emergency operatives.

Background: Self-care can include the activities that individuals perform in accordance with their needs to maintain and promote their health. Puberty is the most important change that comes with adolescence, which necessitates adolescents to become aware of their sexual and reproductive health. Objectives: The objective of the present study was to investigate the predictors of adolescent females’ sexual and reproductive self-care status. Methods: This cross-sectional study using random multistage sampling was conducted on adolescent females aged 14 - 19 years in the secondary schools of Karaj, Iran, in 2022. A total of 555 female students voluntarily completed the survey. The survey included the Female Adolescents’ Sexual and Reproductive Self-care Scale (FASRSCS). Pearson’s correlation coefficient and univariable and multivariable linear regression were applied. Results: The mean score of the FASRSCS was 65.42 out of 100 (standard deviation (SD) = 10.27). The highest mean score was acquired on the Perception of Female Adolescents of Premarital Sexual Relationships subscale (85.98 (SD = 14.28)), and the lowest mean score was acquired on the Reproductive and Sexual Health Knowledge subscale (36.97 (SD = 23.58)). The total score on the FASRSCS had the strongest association with the Adolescents and Family Interaction subscale (r = 0.71, P < 0.001), and the weakest association was with the Reproductive and Sexual Health Knowledge subscale (r = 0.38, P < 0.001). Multivariable linear regression analysis showed that having very strong religious beliefs (β = 0.23, P < 0.001), receiving information regarding puberty and menstrual health from peers (β = -0.20, P < 0.001), and cold parent-child relationship (β = -0.19, P < 0.001) were independent significant predictors of good sexual and reproductive self-care among adolescent females. Conclusions: Given the importance of religious beliefs, parent-adolescent relationships, and the sources through which adolescents receive information regarding their sexual and reproductive health self-care, it is necessary to appropriate design interventions, including the aforementioned factors, in order to optimize and promote good sexual and reproductive health among female Iranian adolescents.
背景:自我保健可以包括个人根据自己的需要进行的活动,以维持和促进自己的健康。青春期是伴随青春期而来的最重要的变化,它要求青少年意识到自己的性健康和生殖健康。目的:探讨青少年女性性与生殖自我保健状况的预测因素。方法:采用随机多阶段抽样的横断面研究方法,于2022年对伊朗卡拉杰中学14 - 19岁的少女进行了调查。共有555名女学生自愿完成了调查。调查内容包括《女性青少年性与生殖自我保健量表》(FASRSCS)。应用Pearson相关系数、单变量和多变量线性回归。结果:FASRSCS评分平均为65.42分(满分100分),标准差(SD) = 10.27。女性青少年对婚前性关系的认知得分最高,为85.98分(SD = 14.28),生殖与性健康知识得分最低,为36.97分(SD = 23.58)。FASRSCS总分与青少年与家庭互动量表的相关性最强(r = 0.71, P <0.001),与生殖与性健康知识子量表的相关性最弱(r = 0.38, P <0.001)。多变量线性回归分析显示,有非常强烈的宗教信仰(β = 0.23, P <0.001),从同伴那里获得关于青春期和月经健康的信息(β = -0.20, P <0.001),冷亲子关系(β = -0.19, P <0.001)是青春期女性良好的性和生殖自我保健的独立显著预测因子。结论:鉴于宗教信仰、亲子关系以及青少年获得有关性健康和生殖健康自我保健信息的来源的重要性,有必要适当设计干预措施,包括上述因素,以优化和促进伊朗女性青少年的良好性健康和生殖健康。

Background: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a major concern in women's health. It is hypothesized that a deficiency in fat-soluble vitamins might result in POI; however, this relationship has not been extensively evaluated. Objectives: This systematic review was designed to elucidate the relationship between fat-soluble vitamin serum levels and POI. Methods: This systematic review was conducted on international databases, including Scopus, National Library of Medicine (PubMed), and Web of Science (ISI) databases, along with Google Scholar, until June 2022. This review was conducted on case reports, case series, cross-sectional, cohort, and case-control studies (observational studies) published in English and Persian in peer-reviewed journals that assessed the association between serum levels of fat-soluble vitamins and POI. Results: Of the 10,029 retrieved articles, 5 (N = 3,443 subjects) were included in the review. The results of the reviewed articles were inconsistent in terms of the relationship between serum vitamin D and A levels and POI; however, vitamin D binding protein and vitamin A/total cholesterol ratio might be related to POI. Serum vitamin E was associated with POI based on the findings of one study. Discussion: This review showed that the serum levels of fat-soluble vitamins might predict POI. However, there was an insufficient number of studies to document the findings. If approved in further studies, these vitamins and their binding proteins can be evaluated in high-risk POI patients.

Background: Safe nursing care and professional commitment are known as two important components influencing the nursing service quality. Objectives: The present study aimed to assess the relationship between safe nursing care and nurses’ professional commitment. Methods: In the present cross-sectional correlational research, 263 nurses were selected from the intensive care unit/cardiac care unit (ICU/CCU), internal, surgery, pediatrics, gynecology and obstetrics, oncology, burn, orthopedics, infectious, and neurology wards of educational-therapeutic hospitals affiliated with Qazvin University of Medical Sciences by quota sampling method between May 2022 and September 2022. Data collection was performed using the nurses’ professional commitment scale (NPCS) and the assessment of safe nursing care (ASNC) questionnaire. Nurses were selected using a convenience sampling method. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical tests (t-test, Pearson’s correlation, and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA)) by SPSS software version 16. Results: The mean scores of nurses’ professional commitment and safe nursing care were 86.16 ± 4.92 and 134.57 ± 16.15, respectively. Pearson’s correlation test showed a significant relationship between nurses’ professional commitment and safe nursing care (r = 0.345, P ≤ 0.001). Also, the test results indicated that the level of nurses’ professional commitment varied among individuals with different employment types (P = 0.008). Conclusions: According to this study, safe nursing care and nurses’ professional commitment are two important components influencing each other. Therefore, these results have important implications for policymakers and healthcare systems involved in promoting the level of safe nursing care and nurses’ professional commitment.

Background: The Perceived Access to Health Care Questionnaire (PAHCQ) is the latest specific tool used to evaluate patients' accessibility to the health system. Objectives: This study aimed to translate and verify the item analysis, test-retest reliability, content validity, construct validity, and known-group analysis of the PAHCQ in a Chinese population. Methods: This study developed and validated the Chinese version of the PAHCQ. The translation of the PAHCQ was based on the back translation of Brislin. This study used simple random sampling to include a sample of 591 subjects in Jiangsu, China. Item analysis was used to verify the questionnaire's expert consistency and cultural adaptation. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the structure. Internal consistency was determined using Cronbach's α, and item validity and test-retest reliability were analyzed. Results: The CFA results indicated that the modified PAHCQ is reasonable. The Cronbach alpha value of the PAHCQ was 0.96. The correlation coefficients for the six domains in test-retest reliability were between 0.67 and 0.91. Comparison of the total PAHCQ scores among participants in different groups of age, gender, maternal status, education level, per capita monthly income, and CCI levels showed statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). Conclusions: The Chinese version of the PAHCQ is a feasible, effective, and reliable tool that can be used to evaluate Chinese patients' perception of health system accessibility.
