Background: Diabetes is a chronic disease, and among the adults, type II diabetes is more common. In 2021, approximately 537 million adults between 20 to79 suffered from diabetes. Diabetics who follow self-care practices can manage their blood glucose levels better, which in turn prevents the secondary complications. Methods: This was a community-based and cross-sectional study performed in the urban field practice (UHC) area of a tertiary care medical college conducted on 110 type II diabetics. The ‘summary of diabetes self-care activities’ questionnaire was used for data collection. Results: Mean age was 53 +/- 7.6, 70% of whom were females and 45.4% were lower-middle Socio-Economic Status. 33% of the participants had uncontrolled diabetes. The majority of study subjects (68.2%) suffered from hypertension as a co-morbidity, followed by heart disease (10.9%), thyroid disease (10%), and hypercholestrolism (1.8%). 62.7% of the subjects showed treatment adherence for > 4 days/week. Diabetics who had the disease for more than 5 years and followed a proper diet and adhered to treatment (> 4 d/week), showed a better control of glucose levels. Conclusion: The findings of this study can be used to strengthen NPCDCS program to bridge the knowledge gap regarding self-care among patients and caregivers.
背景:糖尿病是一种慢性疾病,在成年人中,II 型糖尿病更为常见。2021 年,约有 5.37 亿 20 至 79 岁的成年人患有糖尿病。糖尿病患者如果能坚持自我保健,就能更好地控制血糖水平,从而预防继发性并发症。研究方法这是一项以社区为基础的横断面研究,在一所三级护理医学院的城市现场实践(UHC)区进行,对象是 110 名 II 型糖尿病患者。数据收集采用了 "糖尿病自我护理活动总结 "问卷。结果显示平均年龄为 53 +/- 7.6 岁,其中 70% 为女性,45.4% 处于社会经济地位中下层。33%的研究对象患有未得到控制的糖尿病。大多数研究对象(68.2%)患有高血压,其次是心脏病(10.9%)、甲状腺疾病(10%)和高胆固醇血症(1.8%)。62.7%的受试者每周坚持治疗 4 天以上。患病 5 年以上的糖尿病患者,如果饮食合理并坚持治疗(每周 4 天以上),血糖水平控制得更好。结论本研究的结果可用于加强全人类疾病防治系统计划,以弥补患者和护理人员在自我护理方面的知识差距。

Background: Patients' education is a key factor in patients' care. The purpose of this study is to design a protocol for a convergent parallel mixed methods study to explore the experiences of patients about their received educations based on andragogy model. Methods: This convergent parallel mixed method study includes two parallel quantitative and qualitative phases. During the quantitative phase, a cross-sectional survey will be conducted on 350 adult patients who had the history of hospitalization and received patient education from selected hospitals of Tehran, Iran. Sampling method will be random, and data collection tool will be a researcher-made questionnaire based on the principles of andragogy. The questionnaire’s validity and reliability are also measured, and data will be analyzed using SPSS 16. The qualitative phase will be conducted on adult patients who will be recruited purposively with maximum variation from the selected hospitals. Data will be gathered through semi-structured interviews and analyzed by directed content analysis. With regard to mixed method and using aligning convergence method, the results of the two sets of data will be compared or merged to see if the findings confirm or disconfirm each other. In this parallel section, the similarities between quantitative and qualitative results for assessing patient education are discussed and adapted to suit each other based on andragogy. Conclusions: The findings of this study will provide information regarding defects in patient education, suggesting that the principles of andragogy will develop patient education programs.

Background: Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is regarded as one of the most frequent and costly conditions which can affect patients’ quality of life. The current study aims to investigate changes in quality of life among patients with CLBP. Methods: Prospective observational study was performed from December 2021 to February 2022 in Baharan, Sina and Asadabadi traditional medicine clinics, Tabriz, Iran. Patients were recruited using a convenience sampling method, who were aged 20 years or older and had low back pain symptoms for 12 weeks or more.  Data were collected at baseline, one month and two month follow-up by interviewing the patients. The study tool was Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) questionnaire. Results: Out of 210 participants, 62.4% (131) were female. The change in mean score of life quality at the baseline, one- month and two-month follow-up was 23.76, 35.08 and 40.11, respectively (P = 0.0001).There were significant changes in all eight dimensions of life quality (P = 0.0001).  Additionally, younger Patients (50 ≥) had 1.35 scores of life quality higher than older patients (P = 0.021). Retired, self-employed, housewife and unemployed patients had 6.41, 4.68, 4.18 and 5.38 scores of quality of life lower than office workers, subsequently (P = 0.001). Furthermore, illiterate patients, patients with primary and high school educations had 5.76, 2.61 and 1.33 scores of quality of life less than patients with university degree (p < 0.05). Conclusion: ITM treatment method could contain several effects on the dimensions of quality of life among patients with CLBP. More detailed investigation is required to achieve greater accuracy.

Background: The practice of breastfeeding is vital in child nutrition and morbidity. The authors aimed to determine breastfeeding practices and factors related to Exclusive Breastfeeding (EBF) among mothers with children aged six months to 2 years in an urban area of Thrissur district, Kerala, India. Methods: This was a community-based and cross-sectional study conducted on 339 mothers using cluster sampling in 2016 for one year in the urban area of Thrissur district, Kerala. Details regarding sociodemographic factors, obstetric history, child-related data and breastfeeding practices were collected from mothers using a pretested and semi-structured questionnaire. Analyses were done using SPSS16 and Epi Info 7. Results: The mean age of study population was 27.21 ± 4.27. 223 mothers (65.78 %, 95% CI = 60.43-70.77) initiated breastfeeding within 1 hour, and prelacteal feeding was observed in 25 cases (7.37%, 95% CI = 4.92-10.83). 99.71% practiced feeding on demand, and 30.97% (95% CI = 26.15- 36.24) of children were exclusively breastfed up to 6 months with mean duration of 3.95± 1.79 months. The mean age at which complementary feeding started was 4.83±1.32 months. Cultural beliefs, mothers' employment, and problems during breastfeeding were significant predictors of EBF for up to 6months. Conclusion: Despite high educational status and good antenatal care among the study population, breastfeeding practices were not carried out at the recommended level. Breastfeeding was initiated within 1 hour of delivery by 2/3rd ,and  1/3rd of the children were exclusively breastfed up to 6 months. Cultural beliefs and mothers' employment were factors associated with EBF.  
背景:母乳喂养对儿童营养和发病率至关重要。作者旨在确定印度喀拉拉邦 Thrissur 区城市地区有 6 个月至 2 岁婴儿的母亲的母乳喂养做法以及与纯母乳喂养(EBF)相关的因素。研究方法这是一项以社区为基础的横断面研究,于 2016 年在喀拉拉邦 Thrissur 区的城市地区对 339 名母亲进行了为期一年的群组抽样调查。研究人员使用一份经过预先测试的半结构化问卷向母亲们收集了有关社会人口学因素、产科病史、儿童相关数据和母乳喂养实践的详细信息。使用 SPSS16 和 Epi Info 7 进行了分析。研究结果研究对象的平均年龄为(27.21±4.27)岁。有 223 名母亲(65.78%,95% CI = 60.43-70.77)在 1 小时内开始母乳喂养,有 25 例(7.37%,95% CI = 4.92-10.83)观察到乳前喂养。99.71%的儿童按需喂养,30.97%(95% CI = 26.15-36.24)的儿童纯母乳喂养至 6 个月,平均持续时间为 3.95±1.79 个月。开始添加辅食的平均年龄为 4.83±1.32 个月。文化信仰、母亲的工作和母乳喂养期间的问题是预测婴儿纯母乳喂养达 6 个月的重要因素。结论尽管研究对象的受教育程度较高,产前保健做得较好,但母乳喂养并未达到建议水平。三分之二的婴儿在产后 1 小时内开始母乳喂养,三分之一的婴儿纯母乳喂养至 6 个月。文化信仰和母亲的工作是与母乳喂养相关的因素。

Background: Following the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, in some countries, mandatory vaccination programs were put to practice. However, there were widespread opposition against vaccination, which is investigated in this research. Methods: This was a descriptive-analytical research and data collection was conducted by referring to documents, books and articles in library. Results: With the emergence of corona virus in the world and the need to end this dangerous pandemic, various countries, including Iran's legal system, decided to implement "compulsory vaccination" mechanisms. The findings of this study indicated that the government from the perspective of various schools (even the school of individual originality) was not only allowed to legislate rules to make vaccination obligatory, but also it was expected to enact appropriate laws to create public safety. Conclusion: According to the principles of Islamic jurisprudence and law, including the priority of collective interests over the individual, the rule of no harm, and the authority of the Supreme Leader, the government is not only authorized but also obliged to enact laws for making vaccination obligatory.  
背景:COVID-19 大流行爆发后,一些国家开始实施强制疫苗接种计划。然而,人们普遍反对接种疫苗,本研究对此进行了调查。研究方法:这是一项描述性分析研究,数据收集参考了图书馆中的文件、书籍和文章。结果随着冠状病毒在世界上的出现以及结束这一危险流行病的需要,包括伊朗法律系统在内的各个国家决定实施 "强制疫苗接种 "机制。本研究的结果表明,从各种学派(甚至是个人原创学派)的角度来看,政府不仅可以立法规定强制接种疫苗,而且还应该制定适当的法律来保障公共安全。结论:根据伊斯兰法理学和法律原则,包括集体利益优先于个人利益、无伤害规则和最高领袖的权威,政府不仅有权而且有义务制定法律,规定接种疫苗是强制性的。

Background: Among non-communicable diseases, myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke are the most common cause of death in the world. The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between risk level and preventive behaviors of heart in people aged 30 to 60 years of Jiroft city in 2022. Methods: This research was a cross-sectional study. The population under study is 383 middle-aged individuals (30-60 year) of Jiroft city with the combined sampling method. The data collection tools was reseacher made, included demographic questions, risk perception questionnaires, and preventive behavior questions for MI and stroke. Information was analyzed by SPSSv21 software and further analyzed with descriptive statistics tests, chi-square test, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Pearson correlation test at level 0.05. Results: The participants' average age was 41.26 ± 8.32 years. The highest percentage (51.4%) of middle-aged individuals had a risk level between 10 and 20% for cardiovascular diseases. The study investigated a significant correlation (p < 0.01) between risk level, risk perception, and preventive behaviors for MI and stroke. Smoking and physical activity failed to reveal a significant correlation (p > 0.05), but other dimensions of preventive behaviors correlated positively and significantly with the total score of preventive behaviors (p < 0.01). Conclusion: According to study findings, risk perception plays a significant role in influencing preventive behaviors for MI and stroke. It is recommended to conduct educational interventions to enhance understanding of the actual risk of MI and stroke, particularly among individuals with a high-risk assessment level. This would encourage the adoption of preventive behaviors in this population.
背景:在非传染性疾病中,心肌梗死(MI)和中风是世界上最常见的死亡原因。本研究旨在调查 2022 年吉罗夫特市 30 至 60 岁人群的心脏风险水平与预防行为之间的关系。研究方法本研究为横断面研究。研究对象为吉罗夫特市的 383 名中年人(30-60 岁),采用联合抽样法。数据收集工具由研究人员制作,包括人口统计学问题、风险认知问卷以及心肌梗死和脑卒中预防行为问题。数据采用 SPSSv21 软件进行分析,并在 0.05 的水平上使用描述性统计检验、卡方检验、独立 t 检验、单因素方差分析和皮尔逊相关检验进行进一步分析。结果参与者的平均年龄为(41.26±8.32)岁。中年人患心血管疾病的风险水平在 10%至 20%之间的比例最高(51.4%)。研究发现,风险水平、风险认知与心肌梗死和中风的预防行为之间存在明显的相关性(p < 0.01)。吸烟和体育锻炼未能显示出明显的相关性(p > 0.05),但预防行为的其他方面与预防行为总分呈显著正相关(p < 0.01)。结论研究结果表明,风险认知对心肌梗死和脑卒中的预防行为有重要影响。建议开展教育干预,以提高对心肌梗死和脑卒中实际风险的认识,尤其是在高风险评估级别的人群中。这将鼓励这类人群采取预防行为。

Background: Anemia during pregnancy is an important public health problem, in developing countries. This community based study was conducted in Northeast India to study the prevalence of anemia along with the associated socioeconomic factors. Methods: The present one-year cross sectional study was carried out in the selected villages under Lahowal Block of Dibrugarh District and the relevant data was collected in a pre-designed and pre-tested proforma by house to house interviews. The sample size was calculated 310. Clinical examination was done and haemoglobin estimation was performed using Sahli’s acid hematin method. Data were analyzed in Microsoft Excel using percentage, range, t-test and ANOVA; wherever applicable. A significance level of 5% was taken with 95% confidence interval Results: Anemia was seen in 89.68% of the subjects. The highest mean hemoglobin (Hb) level was observed in the 1st trimester subjects (9.14 gm/dl), while the lowest mean Hb-level was observed in the 3rd trimester subjects (8.90 gm/dl). A significant difference was observed between the mean Hb-levels of the study subjects belonging to nuclear families and joint families, subjects belonging to different socio-economic status, different levels of education, different professions, those consuming tobacco and those not consuming tobacco, and those consuming betel nut and not consuming betel nut. Conclusion: There was a high prevalence of anemia in pregnancy which was related to the socioeconomic status, occupational status, level of education, type of family, and personal habits in these women.
