Such transplants, usually performed as autografting, can often not meet the requirements of an effective scaffold used in nerve tissue engineering. A novel neural tissue scaffold was introduced here to solve the problem concerning the reduced graphene oxide. The three-dimensional graphene oxide in the neural canal restricts the formation of fibroglandular tissues and facilities neural stem cell proliferation and growth. In these techniques, graphene oxide aerogel was initially made. Then, the freeze-drying process was used to fix the geometry of reduced graphene oxide hydrogels prepared using graphene oxide dispersion and ethylenediamine and gain aerogels. The X-ray diffraction patterns, FTIR and morphological related to samples were examined, followed by conducting in-vitro micropropagation and 4, 6-diamidino-2-phenylindol (DAPI) staining in fibroblast and P19 cultures. The results from immunofluorescence staining demonstrated the neural differentiation of P19 cells. It can be concluded that most cells attached to and differentiated on the scaffold surface and axons can penetrate randomly through them. Finally, the three-dimensional graphene oxide was proposed as an ideal alternative to be used in neural tissue engineering.","PeriodicalId":254271,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Research in Paramedical Sciences","volume":"135 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130796635","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}

Numerous pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods have been used to reduce the level of anxiety in patients undergoing general surgery. Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of electronic education on preoperative anxiety in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Methods: The present study was a randomized controlled trial on 88 patients who were candidates for LC in two intervention and control groups in one of the Kermanshah hospitals. Patients in the intervention group received electronic education before surgery. The Visual Analog Scale Anxiety (VAS-A) questionnaire was used to measure anxiety before surgery in the study. Data analysis was performed using SPSS statistical software. Results: The results showed that there was no significant difference in the level of basic anxiety between the intervention and control groups. In second VAS-A evaluation, a significant mean difference was observed between the two groups so that the anxiety of the intervention group was calculated as 26.1 ± (SD = 16) vs. the control group as 45 ± (SD = 21). The mean of post-intervention anxiety compared to pre-intervention anxiety significantly decreased in the intervention group. Conclusions: Our findings highlight that electronic-based education can reduce the preoperative anxiety level in LC patients. Therefore, it's recommended to medical staff for delivering pre-surgery electronic educational interventions for LC surgical patients in order to reduce the level of preoperative anxiety.","PeriodicalId":254271,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Research in Paramedical Sciences","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133571429","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}

Effect of air and noise pollutions on sleep quality and disorders has been proposed. Objectives: In the present study, the geographical distribution of people diagnosed as insomnia in Sleep Disorders Research Centers (SDRC) in the western Iran was investigated. Methods: All patients with primary insomnia who diagnosed by polysomnography (PSG) in SDRC between 2011 to 2019 were recruited. The postal addresses of participants specified by a geographical coordinate represented longitude, latitude, and vertical position. These geographical coordinates converted to Geographic Information System (GIS) and addresses were located on the map. Then participants were divided into noisy and quiet environment groups based on their distance from highways, boulevards, and streets. Subjective and objective sleep characteristics were compared between these two groups by independent sample t-test or U Mann Whitney test using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version.22. Results: Of 78 participants, 47 were from Kermanshah city, 19 were from counties of Kermanshah province, and 14 participants were from Kurdistan, Ilam, Hamedan, Lorestan, Khuzestan and Tehran provinces. The location of all participants was presented on GIS maps. Result didn’t indicate any significant differences in sleep characteristics between the two noisy and quiet environment groups. Conclusions: Most insomniac patients investigated in the SDRC come from Kermanshah city. Patient with insomnia may reach a level of the pathophysiological condition in sleep-wake regulation systems that lead to problematic sleep characteristics independently from environmental noise.","PeriodicalId":254271,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Research in Paramedical Sciences","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132857188","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}

Omidian","doi":"10.5812/jcrps.100112","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5812/jcrps.100112","url":null,"abstract":"Context: Aberrometric analysis of the wavefront in patients with refractive disorders is performed using the Zernike pyramid mode and based on that, a treatment plan is determined however, it is not clear what Zernike modes are derived from mathematical analysis, exactly how much they correspond to the clinical facts this article discusses ways to study this issue. Evidence Acquisition: One of the methods for studying optical systems is the aberrometry of wavefront. the wavefront is a two-dimensional surface perpendicular to a bunch of parallel light rays, that all these rays have the same phase on this surface (because light emits sinusoidally and therefore has multiple identical phases) whenever these rays pass through a refractive surface, it is also called the reference level this refractive index will be ideal if the homogeneity of these rays is maintained and the rays of this bunch of light will be able to focus at one point, but if the by passing light through the refractive surface the wavefront will be disturbed and the lights on this surface have different phases than the reference surface then it is said there is a discrepancy or deviation between the reference surface and the wavefront. Therefore, aberration is the creation of the distance of the wavefront in a certain phase from the refractive surface or reference surface. When we say refractive surface, we do not mean a specific place like the cornea because other than the cornea other factors such as crystalline lens, vitreous, retin even tear layer they are involved in creating aberrations, but usually the pupil range is considered as the reference surface. Results: Modes z-13 and z13 of the fourth order and modes z04 and z-24, z24 from the fifth order and modes z-15, z15 of six order and modes z06, z-26, z26 of seventh order they are not pure and mathematically they have some lower order which may cause in analysis aberrometry disruption as a result, the relevant orders have a little more or less value. Conclusions: There are no strong clinical reasons for Zernike modes to be a fully accurate description of aberromerty, so clinicians should consider other clinical data and findings in their interpretation. Some modes of high-order Zernike have sentences of low-order This can cause abnormal analysis.","PeriodicalId":254271,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Research in Paramedical Sciences","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133797463","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}
