Increased price may discourage smoking habits. There is limited literature available on impact of price rise on smoking behaviors in Saudi Arabia, which is the fourth largest importer of cigarettes and this study assessed the impact of tax increase (in 2020) on smoking behaviors.Methods: A cross-sectional survey was carried out between July 2021 and December 2021.i.e.one year after new value added tax (VAT) system came into force. Data was collected with 14-item pretested questionnaire from 721 adult smokers in Al-Jouf Region of Saudi Arabia selected through stratified cluster ransom sampling. We measured effects of tax increase on smoking behaviors, its impact on decision to quit and perceived health improvements as outcome variables.Results: Nearly 40% of the respondents said that increased price lead them to smoke less number of cigarettes per day (P=0.000), decreased smoking improved their health in terms of breathing capacity, mood, ability to exercise and sleep in hierarchy. 67.4% of the participants are currently thinking of quitting smoking due to increased prices (P=0.001) and logistic regression models identified reduced smoking due to tax rise (Odds=5.68), improvement in health (Odds=2.94) and excess spending of above 20% (Odds=1.72) significantly associated with intentions to quit smoking.Conclusion: Increased price of cigarettes due to VAT significantly decreased smoking behaviors and has impact on smokers' decision to quit smoking. Future studies needed to assess the long-term effect of increased tax on smoking behaviors and its relapse.","PeriodicalId":14685,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Public Health","volume":"52 10","pages":"2073-2082"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10612555/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71412202","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Virtual Reality Simulation Problem-Based Learning (VRS-PBL) has been validated to be an advantageous strategy that can improve knowledge, clinical performance, and self-efficacy. We aimed to identify the effectiveness of VRS-PBL for improving nursing students' neurologic examination.Methods: Data were collected in 2021. Seventy-six participants were recruited via the convenience sampling. Students in the control group underwent conventional lecture and demonstration of neurological assessment prior to practicum, whereas students in the experimental group underwent VRS-PBL once a week for 2 weeks (60 minutes per session).Results: Compared with the control group, the academic self-efficacy (t = -2.80, P = .007) and neurological examination performance (t = -11.62, P < .001) of the nursing students increased significantly in the experimental group. On the other hand, there was no significant difference between the two groups of the transfer motivation (t = -1.76, P = .082).Conclusion: The nursing students integrated the knowledge and skills learned through VRS-PBL, and improved the effectiveness and efficiency of their learning. VRS-PBL that reflects various clinical situations can be used as a foundation for establishing effective teaching strategies to improve nursing competency from novice to expert nurses.","PeriodicalId":14685,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Public Health","volume":"52 10","pages":"2128-2137"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10612552/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71412253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the significance, there have been few meta studies demonstrating the effectiveness of nursing interventions for the treatment of childhood asthma that includes only randomised controlled trials (RCTs). Therefore, this meta study was conducted to comprehensively evaluate the efficacy of nursing care interventions for the management of childhood asthma.Methods: STATA 14.2 (StataCorp, College Station, TX, USA) was used to conduct the meta-analysis. From 1964 to July 2022, we searched Medline, the Cochrane library, EMBASE, Scopus Science Direct, and Google Scholar. Depending on the type of outcome, a meta-analysis was performed using a random-effects model, pooled weight mean difference (WMD), standardised mean difference (SMD), and/or risk ratio (RR) with stated 95 percent confidence intervals (CIs). PRISMA guidelines were followed for conducing this study.Results: Nine studies were analysed in total. The pooled RR for emergency visits was 0.49 (95%CI: 0.32 to 0.77), for hospitalizations was 0.64 (95%CI: 0.21 to 1.89). The pooled SMD for frequency of asthma attacks was -2.88 (95%CI: -3.22 to -2.54), quality of life was 0.49 (95%CI: 0.22 to 0.75) and asthma control was 1.25 (95%CI: -0.77 to 3.28).Conclusion: Paediatric asthma patients who received nursing interventions reported an improved quality of life and a decrease in emergencies and acute attacks due to asthma. Future RCTs should focus on uncovering the short- and long-term effects of these nursing interventions to provide optimal management and care.","PeriodicalId":14685,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Public Health","volume":"52 10","pages":"2025-2035"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10612560/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71412204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aimed to identify the factors affecting the survival rate of cervical cancer patients, as these factors are vital for preventing the progression and effective treatment of cancer.Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, 254 patients with cervical cancer who were registered in The Kerman Population-Based Cancer Registry (KPBCR) between 2012 and 2022 and whose status was known to be alive or dead were enrolled. Since the proportional hazard assumption was not established for the type of treatment, the extended Cox model was used to determine the variables influencing the survival of the patients.Results: The mean survival time of the patients was 91.28 ± 3.02 months. The results of fitting the extended Cox model showed that the risk of death increases by 1.02 per year of age at diagnosis (HR=1.02; 95% CI: 1.00, 1.04). Moreover, for a one-unit increase in body mass index (BMI), the risk of death increased by 0.93 (HR=0.93; 95% CI: 0.88, 0.98). The risk of death in patients with disease stages III&IV was 3.08 times that of patients with disease stages I&II (HR=3.08; 95% CI: 1.05, 9.03). The risk of death in patients receiving at least one of the radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatments after 18 months was 7.11 times that of patients undergoing surgery (HR=7.11; 95% CI: 1.69, 29.91).Conclusion: The age of diagnosis, BMI, disease stage, and type of treatment significantly affect the survival of patients. Thus, raising women's awareness of periodical examinations and early diagnosis can reduce the risk of death and prevent cervical cancer progression.","PeriodicalId":14685,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Public Health","volume":"52 10","pages":"2216-2224"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10612564/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71412254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aimed to examine current nutrition-affiliated programs offered in post-secondary institutions in the SAR.Methods: The search was conducted between Jan and Feb 2021. An electronic review of universities and colleges' websites, department webpages, and academic programs' homepages and resources of all the private and public universities in SAR was conducted to find programs related to nutrition, nutrition sciences, and dietetics.Results: Only 13%, or 4 out of 30 SAR colleges and universities had bachelor's programs in nutrition or nutrition science, and none had nutrition programs at the graduate or terminal degree levels.Conclusion: A pathway for integration of graduates from nutrition sciences into the healthcare and public health workforce should be defined and an understanding of the value of those with a degree in nutrition should be cultivated in clinical and community care settings.
