The Demographic Characteristics Questionnaire consisting of 50 questions and the Carlson Work-Family Conflict Questionnaire including 183 questions were completed for working women and their husbands. The collected data, after ensuring the accuracy of data entry were evaluated and assessed. \u0000Results: In this study, a total of 540 people (270 couples) were included in the study with a mean age of 34.46 ± 6.61 years for women and a mean age of 38.15 ± 6.97 years for men. The scores obtained from the work-family conflict questionnaire show that the mean scores obtained from working women were 49.391 ± 1.47 and the mean scores of their husbands were 49.01 ± 12.67. The number of current children was positively and significantly correlated with time conflict (p value = 0.02) and the total score of work-family conflict (p value = 0.04). And the total score of work-family conflict (p value = 0.008) had a positive and significant correlation. \u0000Conclusion: The number of current children and the number of desired children have a positive and significant correlation with time conflict, pressure and total score of work-family conflict. The results of this study help policy-makers determine and reorganize women's working hours and provide facilities to working women to reduce work-family conflict and thus take steps to reduce conflict, strengthen marital relationships and increase childbearing.","PeriodicalId":410018,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Zabol Medical School","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129600621","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 majority of its prevalence is among children aged from 6 to 11 years. Due to students’ low attention to personal hygiene tips, and presence in populated places such as schools, they are more prone to head lice infestation; thus, studying this disease among students is a hygienic priority. The current study was undertaken among primary girl students in Doroud County with the aim to determine the prevalence of head lice infestation and its relations with epidemiologic factors and to evaluate the treatment efficay of permethrin shampoo 1% and dimethicone. \u0000Methods: The present study was performed in two phases: observational (cross-sectional) and interventional (clinical trial). Five schools were selected from five geographical areas for sampling. Other information was collected from student records or by direct inquiry. Eighty girls infested were randomly allocated in two groups and received either one of the mentioned treatments. The results of the interventions were evaluated on days 7 and 14. \u0000Results: The prevalence of head lice infestation was10.3%. The most involved group (40 %) were students of third grade. The father’s education and shower times per week showed significant effects among epidemiologic factors (p value = 0.05). The outcome of treatment in the first week did not show a significant difference between the groups. Treatment with dimethicone lotion in the second week (p value = 0.025) and in general during two weeks (p value = 0.006) was more effective in removing the head lice than permethrin shampoo. \u0000Conclusion: Head pediculosis is more prevalent among girl students whose fathers are less educated and take less showers in a week. Thus it is crucial to deal with head lice by social health education among families. In addition, dimethicone lotion is more effective than permethrin shampoo in eradicating this external parasite.","PeriodicalId":410018,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Zabol Medical School","volume":"149 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127263761","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}
