Significant relationship has been reported between the smoking status and health literacy. Objective: This investigation aimed at recognizing the relationships between smoking intention and various dimensions of health literacy in university students. Methods: In the current cross-sectional investigation, 542 students of Mashhad Universities of Applied Sciences were collected using cluster sampling method. Data collection tools were sociodemographic, health literacy, and smoking intention questionnaire. Data were analyzed through SPSS software. Results: Among the various investigated dimensions of health literacy, the decision making and health information application dimension has the lowest score and the reading skills and access dimensions have the highest score, respectively. Results showed that the smoking intention was associated significantly with decision making (ß Standard: -0.27, Confidence interval: -0.03 - -0.01) and health information application and access dimensions (ß Standard: -0.3, Confidence interval: -0.03 - -0.02). Furthermore, decision making and health information application dimension was the strongest smoking intention predictor. Conclusion: Recognizing the skills that are most strongly associated with smoking decision-making can help designers develop clear, informative, and actionable programs and training. The findings of this investigation indicated the fact that in order to reduce the intention of smoking and in contrast to increase carrying out preventive and healthy behaviors among university students, specific consideration must be had to the factor of health literacy and its effective dimensions.","PeriodicalId":112656,"journal":{"name":"Caspian Journal of Health Research","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130985038","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}

The CCHF virus is spread by an RNA virus of the genus Orthonairovirus , the family Nairoviridae. CCHF has been identified as the most frequent viral hemorrhagic fever in Iran. The route of CCHF transmission to humans is through infected tick bites, contact with infected livestock, infected blood or tissues of humans. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the infection of livestocks with different species of ticks and also to determine the presence of CCHF virus in the ticks in Jahrom township. Methods:A total of 200 ticks were collected from Jahrom township, Fars Province, Southern Iran. To detect virus in infected ticks, total RNA was extracted using the RNeasy Mini Kit Qiagen and subjected to reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. Results:Of all the ticks tested, twelve (6%) were positive for the virus, 124 (62%) belonged to the species Rhipicephalus sanguineus, 37 (18.5%) belonged to Hyalomma anatolicum, 23 (11.5%) belonged to Hyalomma marginatus, 7 (3.5%) belonged to Hyalomma asiaticum, 4 (2%) belonged to Hyalomma dromedarii, and 5 (2.5%) belonged to Rhipicephalus bursa. Of the 200 ticks collected in the area, 117 (58.5%) were male and 83 (41.5%) were female. Conclusion:In this study, for the first time, we analyzed tick samples collected from Jahrom township for the presence of CCHF virus. The findings of our study might be valuable for designing preventive measures regarding CCHF in Fars province, although further studies are required.","PeriodicalId":112656,"journal":{"name":"Caspian Journal of Health Research","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131168933","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}

Job satisfaction among healthcare workers is most predominant component to smooth functioning of institutional activities and to improve the quality of patient care. Objective: To find out job satisfaction among frontline healthcare workers during COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 228 healthcare workers (doctors and nurses) working in Chitwan Medical College Teaching Hospital (CMC-TH) during the COVID-19 pandemic. A simple random sampling technique was used to select the sample and a self-administered structured questionnaire with a job satisfaction scale was used to collect the data. Obtained data were analyzed in SPSS version 20 for Windows using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The majority (71.1%) of the healthcare workers were ambivalent whereas few (18%) were satisfied, and 11.0% were dissatisfied with their job during the COVID-19 pandemic. Healthcare workers' median percentage satisfaction score was higher on the domains of coworkers (70.8%), nature of work (70.8%), and supervision (70.8%) whereas lower on fringe benefits (54.2%), and contingent rewards (54.2%) other domains. There was a statistically significant association between job satisfaction level with age (p=0.037), marital status (p= <0.001) and experience (p=0.016) of the doctors and nurses. Conclusions: Job satisfaction is very low among healthcare workers in a teaching hospital. Hence, appropriate strategies are needed to be implemented considering the identified domains of satisfaction to enhance the healthcare workers’ job satisfaction and quality patients’ care.","PeriodicalId":112656,"journal":{"name":"Caspian Journal of Health Research","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133469190","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}

Due to their potential for accumulating in the body, the different aspects of the hazard posed by heavy metals should be carefully examined. Objectives: The present study was conducted to determine the concentrations of heavy metals such as Arsenic (As), Cadmium (Cd), Chromium (Cr), Lead (Pb), and Nickel (Ni) in tuber crops i.e., potatoes and onions in Rasht, north of Iran. Materials & Methods: A total of 140 potatoes and onions that were planted in difference cities of Iran were randomly procured from the city's fresh market in the spring during ten-day intervals. The acid digestion method was used for the preparation of the samples and the heavy metals were measured using an Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer (ICP-OES). Results: The mean concentration of Pb, Cd, Cr, and Ni found in the potato samples were 0.057, 0.079, 0.299, and 0.190 mg/kg of dry weight, respectively. The mean concentration of Pb, Cd, Cr, and Ni found in the onion samples were 0.067, 0.020, 0.275, and 0.235 mg/kg of dry weight, respectively. In both products, the amount of As was less than the device’s detection limit (1.187 ppb). The mean concentration of heavy metals in the products received from the northern region was higher than the central and southern parts of Iran. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the mean concentration of Pb in both potatoes and onions were in the normal range. Similarly, the mean concentration of Cd, in onions was under the standard limit, but it was higher than the standard limit in some potato samples. Also, the mean concentration of Cr was higher than the standard limit.","PeriodicalId":112656,"journal":{"name":"Caspian Journal of Health Research","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127222873","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}

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of anxiety and resilience in predicting occupational fatigue in nurses during the COVID ‐ 19 virus epidemic in Iran. Materials & Methods: This cross-sectional online survey was conducted on the nurses of Razi and Porsina public hospitals in Rasht, north of Iran. A total of 160 nurses of were selected using simple random sampling method. Data were collected using the Swedish occupational fatigue inventory (SOFI), the corona disease anxiety scale (CDAS) and the Connor-Davidson resilience scale (CD-RISC). Results: Participation rate was 87.5%. The score level of most nurses in CDAS was low to moderate. The CDAS score was higher in women and those who work in the COVID units than those who work in both the COVID and non-COVID units. The CD-RISC score was higher in married people than singles and in people with permanent employment status than in contract and temporary employment status. SOFI was positively correlated with CDAS and negatively correlated with CD-RISC; But CDAS and CD-RISC were not significantly related (p<0.05). In multivariate linear regression model. Anxiety was the only significant independent predictor of occupational fatigue (B=1.16, P<0.001). Conclusion: Despite the COVID-19 epidemic crisis in the fourth wave and high mortality, anxiety level in nurses was low and moderate, which can be attributed to the COVID-19 vaccine. But the anxiety score still played an important role in occupational fatigue. It is suggested that appropriate interventions be developed and implemented to improve nurses' anxiety to stressful epidemic conditions of Covid-19 and thereafter.","PeriodicalId":112656,"journal":{"name":"Caspian Journal of Health Research","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132784168","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}
