Introduction : The birth weight of a newborn is one of the important indicators of growth, survival, and development of the child. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the birth weight of the newborn and the maternal weight and maternal weight gain during pregnancy. Methods : This descriptive-analytical and cross-sectional study was performed on 92 pregnant women in Vali-e-Asr hospital in Fasa, Iran, during the second half of the year 2016. Samples were selected by systematic random sampling. Data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire that its validity and reliability were checked and approved. Data were analyzed using SPSS software and independent t-test, Pearson correlation coefficient and linear regression. Results : The mean weight of newborns at birth was 3181.20±589.29 g. The mean BMI of mothers before and at the end of pregnancy was 23.97±5.54 and 29.61±7.55 g, respectively. The findings indicated that there was a linear relationship between the weight of newborns and maternal weight at the beginning (r=0.23, P-Value < 0.05) and at the end (r=0.24, P-Value < 0.05) of pregnancy. There was no significant relationship between the birth weight and mother’s job, number of previous deliveries, type of delivery, pregnancy age, taking supplements, and sex of the baby (p>0.05). But a significant relationship was observed between the parental raltionship and time of the delivery (premature and timely) and weight of newborns (P-Value < 0.05). Conclusion : The findings of this study indicates the influence of pre-pregnancy weight and maternal weight gain during pregnancy on the birth weight of the newborn. Therefore, healthcare providers should pay special attention to fitting and regulating the weight of pregnant women.

Introduction : The academic success of medical students can lead to better health services. Various factors can be related to their success or failure. This study investigates some factors, especially demographic factors, related to the academic failure of medical students. Methods : This case-control study was conducted in 2016 among students of Bandar Abbas Medical School. The required information was obtained from the education office of school, counseling unit, and student files. In this study, 119 students with academic failure were selected as the case and 119 students formed the control group. The criteria of academic failure in this study were the drop in average grade in the second semester compared to the first semester of more than two points, becoming contingent in one semester, and having an average grade point from 12 to 14. Data were analyzed using SPSS software and descriptive and analytical statistics (independent t-test, chi-square, logistic regression, and odds ratio). Results : The results showed that there was a statistically significant relationship between residence status, father's and mother's educational level, and the type of diploma and academic failure (P< 0.05). But there was no relationship between age at the time of academic failure, marital status, diploma grade point average, acceptance quota, and acceptance rank and academic failure (P<0.05). Based on the results of logistic regression, none of variables related to each other. Conclusion : According to the results of this study, social and cultural factors such as residence status and educational status of student parents can be associated with academic failure. Therefore, in order to promote the future of community health, these factors should be considered.

Introduction: Low quality sleep and insomnia can lead to impaired daily functioning, increased human errors, and occupational accidents. Shift work is one of the factors affecting insomnia and sleep quality. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between sleep disorders and blood pressure and shift working in Shahid Mohammadi hospital staff. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was performed on 263 clinical staff of Shahid Mohammadi hospital in Bandar Abbas city in 2019, who were selected using random sampling method. In addition to demographic data, Maureen Insomnia Severity Index, shift working status, and blood pressure of the participants were recorded. Data were analyzed using spss version 24 software and logistic regression, chi-square, and t-test tests. Results: The results showed that 39(14.8%) participants had normal sleep and 118(44.9%), 90(34.2%), and 16(6.1%) of the subjects had mild, moderate, and severe sleep disorders, respectively. Sleep disorders were higher in women compared to men (P-Value⩽0.05). Compared to day workers, the odds ratio of sleep disorders in shift workers was 3.50 (P-Value⩽0.05). There was no significant relationship between hypertension and shift working and sleep disorders (P-Value≥0.05). Conclusion: Since the prevalence of insomnia in hospital staff is high and shift working increases the risk of sleep disorders, shift working schedules should be considered and adjusted.

Introduction : House dust mites have been shown to be strongly associated with allergic respiratory diseases such as, bronchial asthma and rhinitis. The aim of this study was to determine environmental factors associated with house dust mites in residential buildings of Qeshm County. Methods : In this descriptive analytical study, dust mite samples were collected from carpets and floors of homes using a vacuum cleaner and transferred to the laboratory. The samples were boiled and cleared in 85% lactic acid. Specimens were individually mounted on a microscope slide and identified to species by identification keys. Data were analyzed by SPSS software and chi-square test. Results : A total of 2951 house dust mites were collected. The collected mites were Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (33.17%), D. evansi (27.9%), D. farinae (21.02%), D. simplex (14.29%), and D. Siboney (4.43%). The most prevalent mite species was Dermatophagoide petronysinus and collected from all studied areas. In this study, 86.4% of the residential places were contaminated with house dust mites and the mean density of mites in per gram of dust was 2.61± 0.47 mites. In addition, a significant relationship was found between the mean density of mites in per gram of dust and the temperature of the residential places, relative humidity in residential areas, the floor coverings, and the family size (P<0.05). Conclusion: This study revealed that house dust mites in Qeshm city have high diversity and distribution. Since these mite species are incriminated as the cause of respiratory, asthma, and allergic diseases, a comprehensive program in health education should be implemented, to increase the public awareness and prevent the contamination of residential places by house dust mites.

In this study, 86.4% of the residential places were contaminated with house dust mites and the mean density of mites in per gram of dust was 2.61± 0.47 mites. In addition, a significant relationship was found between the mean density of mites in per gram of dust and the temperature of the residential places, relative humidity in residential areas, the floor coverings, and the family size (P<0.05). Conclusion: This study revealed that house dust mites in Qeshm city have high diversity and distribution. Since these mite species are incriminated as the cause of respiratory, asthma, and allergic diseases, a comprehensive program in health education should be implemented, to increase the public awareness and prevent the contamination of residential places by house dust mites.","PeriodicalId":92082,"journal":{"name":"Journal of preventive medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45593365","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
