Association of individual and community-level socioeconomic status and education with medication use: A multilevel analysis in the Persian cohort
Higher education was associated with lower medication use, whereas living in more educated communities was linked to higher usage. Although the association between individual SES and medication use was relatively weak, residing in middle-SES communities was associated with lower medication usage. These findings show the importance of addressing community-level factors in health research and policymaking
Measurement of Covid-19 vaccination acceptance and associated factors among Afghan refugees in Iran: Insights from a cross-sectional study
Afghan refugees in Iran, estimated at over 5 million, represent a large vulnerable population whose attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccination are crucial to understand. This cross-sectional study was conducted in Shiraz, Iran, in 2023. Adult Afghan refugees with children aged 5–17 were recruited using a snowball sampling method. A previously validated survey tool was adapted for the Afghan population in this study to assess underlying sociodemograph…
Epidemiological and clinical characteristics of long Covid-19 among Iranians: A community-based study in southern Iran
Our investigation sheds light on long-term aspects of COVID-19, demonstrating a significant prevalence of LC with diverse manifestations. It also underscores the importance of establishing standardized criteria and control groups in research on LC to address challenges related to heterogeneity and potential overestimation of symptoms
The Covid-19 Pandemic, Socioeconomic Effects, and Intimate Partner Violence Against Women: A Population-Based Cohort Study in 2020, Iran
Objectives. To investigate the prevalence, pattern, and socioeconomic risk factors of intimate partner violence (IPV) before and 6 months after the pandemic onset among a cohort of Iranian women. Methods. We conducted a population-based IPV survey among 2502 partnered Iranian women aged 18 to 60 years before (n = 2502) and 6 months after (n=2116) the pandemic’s onset. We estimated prevalence and incidence of psychological, physical, and sexual IP…
The prevalence of risk factors associated with non-communicable diseases in Afghan refugees in southern Iran: A cross-sectional study
Except for inadequate fruit and vegetable intake and dyslipidaemia, the prevalence of other NCD risk factors was low among Afghan refugees in Iran. Raising awareness about healthy diet and its importance and the provision of more affordable fruit and vegetables are two effective measures toward improving the health of refugees in Iran
