Objectives: This study attempts to predict predisposition to VVC related to risk factors and clinical symptoms among vaginitis cases using the artificial neural network (ANN) model. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 250 women referred to gynecology clinics in Birjand, Iran. A questionnaire was used to record participants' demographic information. Swabs were used for wet mounts and culture. Candida species were identified by morphological and physiological methods. The performance of the optimal neural network model was assessed by the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy area under the ROC curve (AUC). Descriptive statistics were used for the statistical description of data, and chi-square test, t-test, and ANN analysis using SPSS application tools (Statistical Product and Service Solutions) version 22 software at 0.05 significant level. Results: The prevalence of vulvovaginal candidiasis was 41.0%, and Candida albicans was the most frequently identified species (55.9%). The descriptive statistics (chi-square test and t-test) revealed no significant difference between the frequencies of Candida infection with demographic factors and clinical presentations. However, factors such as abortion history, number of sexual intercourse, dyspareunia, education, natural vaginal delivery (NVD), and lower abdominal pain included in our ANN model had significant differences (P < 0.05). Conclusions: The result of the ANN model revealed that using demographic factors and clinical symptoms can predict VVC infection. Therefore, this model can identify the effect of the clinical presentations and symptoms of infection.","PeriodicalId":18693,"journal":{"name":"Modern Care Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89347824","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}

Increases in these inflammatory biomarkers have been linked to periodontal diseases. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the impact of oral health education on inflammatory markers in patients with SLE. Methods: In this field trial study, 40 SLE patients with no dental plaque were assigned to the intervention and control groups by block randomization design. The intervention group was educated in a 20-minute session based on Bass’s method of tooth brushing. Before and 3 months after the intervention, the dental plaque, CRP, ESR, and double-stranded DNA (anti-dsDNA) levels were determined in the two groups. Data were analyzed with SPSS software using independent t-test, Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney, and univariate covariance analysis at 0.05 significance level. Results: In terms of basic variables, there was no significant difference between the two groups. O’Leary’s plaque index in the intervention group showed a significant decrease over time, but no significant reduction was observed in the control group. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.001). The results of covariance analysis and controlling for the effect on patients' performance showed that the health education intervention had a significant impact on ESR (effect size = 9.6%). However, the intervention had a slight effect on CRP, dsDNA, and SLE Disease Activity Index (SLE-DAI). Moreover, CRP, ESR, and dsDNA showed a significant decrease in both groups after the intervention; however, the difference was not significant. Conclusions: According to the results of the study, it is recommended to implement educational programs in the field of oral and dental hygiene and the correct way of brushing teeth for patients with SLE.","PeriodicalId":18693,"journal":{"name":"Modern Care Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77356795","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 current research aims to evaluate the effect of eight weeks of vitamin D consumption alongside exercise in water on liver enzymes and the mental health of women with type 2 diabetes. Methods: Forty women with type 2 diabetes aged 40 to 60 were divided into four groups of 10 subjects: (1) exercise in water and vitamin D supplementation, (2) exercise in water, (3) vitamin D supplementation, and (4) control group. The water exercise group performed three exercise sessions per week for eight weeks (Borg scale of 14), and vitamin D supplementation groups consumed 50,000 (IU) vitamin D every week. Liver enzymes and mental health (Beck's stress and anxiety (BAI) questionnaire (21 questions, alpha Cronbach 0.92) and depression (BDI-II) questionnaires (21 questions, alpha Cronbach 0.87)) were administered before and after eight weeks of training. The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics by SPSS software version 21. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and one-way analysis of variance and paired t-test were used to analyze the data at a significance level of 0.05. Results: Aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase decreased significantly after eight weeks in the vitamin D + water exercise and water exercise groups (P < 0.05). Moreover, depression and stress scores significantly decreased after the intervention in the vitamin D + water exercise and water exercise groups (P < 0.05). Conclusions: The findings demonstrated that exercise in water plus vitamin D consumption improved anthropometric indices and liver enzymes and alleviated depression and stress in patients with type 2 diabetes. These two interventions can be combined to reduce type 2 diabetes complications.","PeriodicalId":18693,"journal":{"name":"Modern Care Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81515371","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: This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of 2 different brands of ibuprofen in PDA closure in preterm infants weighing less than 1500 g. Methods: This single-blind clinical trial study was performed on 75 premature neonates with PDA in the pediatric ward of Vali-Asr Hospital in Birjand from March 2014 to March 2019. Patients were treated with two brands of ibuprofen at doses of 10 mg/kg for the first day and 5 mg/kg for the second and third days (24 and 48 hours afterward). Before and three days after the last dose, the children were examined by pediatric cardiologist echocardiography. The data were input into SPSS version 23 and analyzed using descriptive statistics, such as mean and SD. Inferential statistics, such as the chi-square test, were also employed with a significance level of P-value < 0.05. Results: There was a significant difference between the rate of PDA closure, 78.8% in the Pedea group vs. 54.8% in the Ibuprofen group (P = 0.03). In the Ibuprofen group, there was no difference in drug efficacy in PDA closure between male and female neonates (P = 0.663). Also, in the Pedea group, there was a significant difference in terms of efficacy between male and female neonates (P = 0.049). No significant difference was observed in PDA closure between the two medications based on their sizes (P = 0.616 in small size, P = 0.266 in medium size, and P = 0.175 in large size). Conclusions: Pedea is more effective than Ibuprofen. It reduces complications and the need for surgery. However, there was no significant relationship between the two drugs based on the PDA sizes. Therefore, it seems logical to use the Iranian brand of ibuprofen, considering the benefits equal to the foreign one.","PeriodicalId":18693,"journal":{"name":"Modern Care Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77748839","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}
