Investigating the conceptual model of the formation of psychological resilience in farmers affected by droughts in Iran using structural equation modeling
This study showed that the model is appropriate for the context of Iran. Utilizing the model and its components, targeted interventions can be implemented to improve the psychological resilience of farmers both in practice and in the field. Furthermore, the tool designed in this study allows for the analysis of the model's applicability in other provinces affected by drought in Iran. Based on the findings, informed decisions and interventions can…
Association between intoxication with psychoactive substances and adverse effects occurrence in consumers
Background The prevalence of psychoactive substance use is increasing worldwide and identifying adverse effects of these types of drugs is necessary in intoxicated patients. Objective We aimed to investigate the association of psychoactive substance intoxication with their adverse effects on the functioning of the bodily organs. Methods This was a single-center study between March 2019 and April 2022 on intoxicated patients with psychoactive subs…

The national rate of intensive care units-acquired infections, one-year retrospective study in Iran
HAIs are common in the internal ICU wards. In fact, VAE and ventilator-related infections are more prevalent in Iran. HAIs in the ICUs leads to an increased risk of ICU-related mortality. Therefore, to reduce ICU-AIs, the specific and trained personnel must be responsible for the use of the devices (catheter use and ventilators), avoid over use of catheterization when possible, and remove catheters earlier
Development and validation of a knowledge, attitude, and practice questionnaire regarding cardiovascular diseases in an Iranian general population
Results provided evidence of the validity of the CVD-KAP29 for KAP studies for cardiovascular diseases in the general population
Survival rate in patients with ICU-acquired infections and its related factors in Iran’s hospitals
Based on the results, it seems that the nosocomial infections surveillance system should be more intelligent. This intelligence should act differently based on related factors such as the age of patients, hospitalization-infection length, infection type, microorganism and type of ward. In other words, this system should be able to dynamically provide the necessary and timely warnings based on the factors affecting the survival rate of infection d…
Determinants of Bus Seat Belt Usage Behavior
Seat belt use is one of the most effective behaviors for saving lives and reducing injuries in bus accidents. This behavior among Iranian bus passengers has not received enough attention. The aim of this study was to discover the determinants of the use and lack of use of bus seat belts in a sample of bus drivers and passengers, traffic police, and related experts. In this qualitative study, data were gathered through 60 semi-constructed intervie…

The effect of on-site and outreach-based needle and syringe programs in people who inject drugs in Kermanshah, Iran
Mothers’ behaviour contributes to suboptimal iodine status of family members
Objective Iodine deficiency still remains a major public health concern worldwide despite global progress in its elimination. The aims of the present study were to evaluate dietary iodine status in the mother and one adult member of each family and the association between mothers’ knowledge, attitude and behaviour and the dietary iodine status of adult family members in Tehran. Design In this cross-sectional study, 24 h urinary iodine and Na conc…
Secular trends in size at birth of Iranian neonates
CONTEXT: Secular trend in birth sizes is a well-known indicator of living conditions of a society. OBJECTIVE: This study conducted meta-analyses estimating the mean birth weight (BW) and birth length (BL) of Iranian neonates born between 1971 and 2010. METHODS: Data were collected from published studies through literature searches using Pubmed, Google scholar, Irandoc, Iranmedex, SID, magiran and unpublished studies including theses and projects …
Does a text messaging intervention improve knowledge, attitudes and practice regarding iodine deficiency and iodized salt consumption
Objective To determine the effectiveness of implementation of a prevention programme via mobile phone text messaging in enhancing knowledge, attitudes and practice concerning iodine deficiency and iodized salt consumption. Design In a randomized controlled trial, participants were subjected to a brief tele-educational support regarding iodine deficiency and the importance of iodized salt consumption. The intervention group received daily text mes…
Validity of an adapted Household Food Insecurity Access Scale in urban households in Iran
Objective To assess the validity of a locally adapted Household Food Insecurity Access Scale (HFIAS) in the measurement of household food insecurity (FI) in the city of Tehran. Design A cross-sectional study. Setting Urban households were selected through a systematic cluster sampling method from six different districts of Tehran. The socio-economic status of households was evaluated using a questionnaire by means of interviews. An adapted HFIAS …
SP1-81 An approach to compare the importance of different cardiovascular exposures as continuous variables
Introduction Attributable Fraction is the commonest method of describing the proportion of a health outcome attributable to an exposure in an exposed group. It applies to binary variables. Many variables are continuous; changing them to binary variables results in loss of information. Using traditional analyses we compared the importance of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in a continuous form. Methods A population based cohort study inc…
P1-189 Net benefit fraction as a modified population attributable fraction to evaluate the clinical performance of a risk function
Introduction Net benefit (NB) has been suggested to verify the clinical usefulness of a model beyond its discrimination and calibration but it has a complex meaning in prediction models. Here we define net benefit fraction (NBF) using Population Attributable Fraction (PAF) index. Methods According to Vickers and Elkin (2006), in models that predict diseases to treat high risk individuals, NB is defined as true positive (TP) rate minus weighted fa…
Reliability and relative validity of an FFQ for nutrients in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study
Objective To describe the relative validity and reliability of the FFQ used for assessing nutrient intakes of participants in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS). Design A total of 132 subjects (sixty-one males and seventy-one females) were included in the study. Dietary data were collected monthly by means of twelve 24 h dietary recalls (24hDR). Subjects completed two, 168-item semi-quantitative FFQ. Blood and urine samples were taken ever…
Is the adapted Radimer/Cornell questionnaire valid to measure food insecurity of urban households in Tehran, Iran
Objective To assess the validity of the adapted Radimer/Cornell questionnaire to measure food insecurity in low-income urban households in Tehran, the capital of Iran. Design The Radimer/Cornell questionnaire was modified and used to assess the applicability, validity and reliability of such a measure in a culturally different context of urban households in Tehran. Factor analysis and Cronbach's α were used to assess validity and reliability, res…
Effect of Traditional Food on Nutrition Improvement of Iranian Tribeswomen
In most developing countries, women receive less food than men, both in absolute terms and in relation to their nutritional needs. However, they spend more time in total productive work than men. One way to supplement women’s nutritional needs is to use locally accessible and sustainable food commonly known as “traditional food.” To examine this concept, 481 household members from 48 subtribes of Iranian tribes in Fars province were recruited. A …
Food Advertising on Iranian Children’s Television
Nature of food advertising during children's television in Iran was examined in two parts. Part 1 - a content analysis study, monitored 13 hours of children's TV programs broadcast on Channel 1, for 1 week (November 4–10, 2005) to analyze whether the messages delivered in food advertisements were consistent with dietary recommendation. Results showed food products comprised 25% in number and 21% in duration of advertising for the monitored period…
