Bridging the gap in pre-hospital maternity care
INTRODUCTION: Pre-hospital obstetric emergencies are unpredictable and time-sensitive, requiring competent and well-trained emergency personnel. Limited preparedness in managing such events can lead to preventable maternal and neonatal complications. This study aimed to investigate the knowledge and clinical skills of pre-hospital emergency personnel in providing obstetric services, offering an integrated overview of the current state at the Tehr…
Resilience of Iranian women in natural disasters
To improve the resilience of women in natural disasters, it is necessary to address gender discrimination in policies and planning, including ensuring women's equitable access to education, property ownership, employment, and leadership positions. The root causes of discrimination in various cultural, social, political, and economic dimensions must be addressed. We recommend that disaster management policies include specific components to guarant…
Association between partner violence, and the appearance of symptoms of sexually transmitted infections, and reproductive tract infections among Afghan refugee women in Iran
Based on the results, self-perception of the presence of STIs/RTIs-associated symptoms among the Afghan refugee population is considerable. Moreover, the high prevalence of IPV and its strong links with the self-perception of the presence of STIs/RTIs-associated symptoms underline the urgent need for developing, testing, and implementing appropriate and timely interventions for managing STIs/RTIs and IPV simultaneously in refugee camps/settlement…
Development and evaluation of an intervention to improve food and nutrition literacy among Iranian Kurdish primary school children
Background Food and nutrition literacy (FNLIT) is a relatively new term that is used to define the knowledge, skills, and behaviors necessary to achieve a healthy diet. Improving food and nutritional literacy in children is a necessary solution to eliminate nutritional disorders in this age group. The purpose of this study was to design, implement and evaluate an intervention to improve food and nutrition literacy in children aged 10–12 years old…
Deadly floods and their causal factors
Relationship between dietary carbohydrate quality index and metabolic syndrome among type 2 diabetes mellitus subjects
The present results suggest an inverse association between the CQI of a diet and the odds of MetS. The CQI approach of dietary recommendation may be a useful strategy for dietary carbohydrate selection for the prevention of MetS
Development of an observational - perceptual heat strain risk assessment (OPHSRA) index and its validation
The novel index developed by the questionnaire had an acceptable validity. Therefore, this index can be used for estimating the risk of thermal strain in a variety of thermal conditions
The mobility of arsenic from highly polluted farmlands to wheat
Arsenic (As) can be transferred from soil and accumulated in food plants. So far, we have a knowledge gap about transference of As from agricultural soils to wheat plant in the natural polluted environment. The aim of present study was to investigate As transfer from soil to different tissues of wheat at a highly As polluted area. In this regard, the mobility indices were used to explain As transfer and accumulation from soil to wheat plant. More…
Development of a personal heat strain risk assessment (PHSRA) index in workplaces and its validation
In general, the results indicated that the novel index developed by the personal and main factors had proper validity in the prediction of thermal strain
Prevalence of intimate partner violence and reproductive health outcomes among Afghan refugee women in Iran
Refugee women are at high risk of experiencing high level of Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) and its negative impacts. We conducted a cross-sectional population-based household survey with refugees in a settlement in the city of Semnan, Iran, from 2016 to 2017. Afghan refugee women (n = 188) with ages between 15 and 49 years were recruited for the survey. Overall, about 79.8% of the participants reported to have experienced a form of IPV in the p…
Psychometric properties of the Iranian version of ‘Communities That Care Youth Survey’
This article investigated the psychometric properties of 'Communities That Care Youth Survey' (CTC-YS) among Iranian adolescents. To prepare the CTC-YS for administration in Iran, it was translated from English to Persian and back translated to English. A total of 753 Iranian adolescents aged 15-18 years old filled out a CTC-YS questionnaire. Its reliability for Iranian youth was assessed using Cronbach's alpha coefficient and its construct valid…
