Materials and Methods: This descriptive-correlational study included 370 university students studying for Bachelor, MA and Phd degrees.The participants were selected by multistage cluster sampling. Data were collected by using scale of behavioral activation-inhibition, life orientation testrevised, and HEXACO personality inventory. Using SPSS-21 software, data were analyzed by Spearman correlation coefficient and regression analysis. Results: among the components of behavioral activation/inhibition systems, punishment was negatively related to extraversion and conscientiousness, while there was a positive correlation between reward and extraversion, agreeableness and conscientiousness. Also a positive correlation was found between entertainment and conscientiousness. Among the components of life orientation, optimism was positively correlated with honesty-humanity, extraversion, conscientiousness, and openness to experience; pessimism was positively correlated with emotionality and negatively correlated with openness to experience and conscientiousness. The results of regression analysis revealed that among personality dimensions of HEXACO, the most frequent variances explained by behavioral activation/inhibition systems and life orientation were conscientiousness (0.17) and openness to experience (0.11), respectively. All the components of behavioral activation/inhibition systems and life orientation could explain 0.53 of HEXACO personality dimensions. Conclusion: Predictions of all of HEXACO personality dimensions by behavioral activation/inhibition systems and life orientation components were significant. Conscientiousness and openness to experience were the most frequent variances explained by behavioral activation/inhibition systems and life orientation among personality dimensions of HEXACO.","PeriodicalId":21808,"journal":{"name":"Scientific Journal of Kurdistan University of Medical Sciences","volume":"317 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75252049","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}

Also, it is the fourth most common cancer in men in Iran and the second most common genitourinary cancer after prostate cancer. This study deals with epidemiology of bladder malignancy in the patients treated by transurethral resection in Tohid Hospital in Sanandaj. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, data were extracted from321 medical records of the patients with bladder malignancy treated by transurethral resection from 2012 to 2017. Data included age, gender, place of residence, occupation, smoking history, histopathology results, disease stage and type of treatment. Frequency and percentage of every variable was calculated. Stata software Ver. 14 was used for data analysis. Results: The results of this study showed that mean ± standard deviation of age of the subjects was 65.6 ± 14 years. 264 (82.2%) patients were men and 247 (76.9%) lived in Sanandaj city. 172 patients (53.6%) had history of smoking and 20 patients (6.2%) had family history of bladder cancer. Histopathology reports of most patients were indicative of transitional cell carcinoma. 210 patients (65.4%) were at stage 1 and 8 patients (2.5%) at stage 4 of the disease. Treatment methods were TURBT in 207 patients (64.5%) and TURBT and BCG into the bladder in 74 patients (23%). Age, gender and disease stage showed no significant statistical association with one another (P>0.05). Conclusion: The incidence of bladder cancer is on the rise, although this increase may be due to improved cancer registration system, as well as use of new diagnostic methods and increased patients' awareness, but change in lifestyle, adverse effects of job on health and other risk factors can lead to increased risk of bladder cancer. Therefore, planning for identification of the causes of this cancer can be helpful in prevention of this cancer.","PeriodicalId":21808,"journal":{"name":"Scientific Journal of Kurdistan University of Medical Sciences","volume":"91 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80436296","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 purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of Estrogen Receptor (ER), Human Epidermal Growth Receptor (HER2) and other factors on post-surgical survival of the patients with breast cancer using Bayesian approach for parametric proportional hazards model. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective study. Data of 165 breast cancer patients who had undergone surgery at Ahvaz Healing Diagnostic Center from 2004 to 2014 were recorded in a data collection form. The variables of age, tumor size, number of lymph nodes involved, cancer grade, ER status and HER2 status were evaluated. Survival time was calculated from the date of surgery to the date of death or study end date (September 2015), in months. In the Bayesian approach in parametric survival analysis models with proportional hazards, the lateral distribution of parameters was estimated using MCMC method. Also, we evaluated efficiency of the models using the deviance information criterion. All data analysis steps were performed by using Stata15 software. Significance coefficients of the model were determined using the 95% credible interval. Results: The mean and standard deviation of age were 46.40 and 9.94 years, respectively. Deviance information criterion for Weibull parametric model was lower than those of other parametric models. Based on the Bayesian estimation of the Weibull's proportional hazards parametric model, tumor size (HR = 1.40), the number of involved lymph nodes (HR = 1.016), Ki67 status (HR = 1.115), tumor grade (HR = 1.022), HER2 status (HR = 1.760) and ER status (HR = 1.381) had a positive effect on risk of death. Age had a negative effect on risk of death (HR=0.978). Conclusion: Based on the Bayesian proportional hazards Weibull model, tumor size, the number of involved lymph nodes, Ki67, tumor's grade, HER2 and ER had a positive effect on the risk of death.","PeriodicalId":21808,"journal":{"name":"Scientific Journal of Kurdistan University of Medical Sciences","volume":"68 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89695633","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}
