Moreover, an analysis of their research settings and associated variables, including publication year, type of disease, intervention method, and study field, was conducted.Results: Overall, 215 articles were identified. The majority of these cohorts, approximately 42.3%, originated from Taiwan, with stroke and cardiovascular diseases emerging as the most prevalent outcomes of interest. The mean STROBE score was 1.38 (SD=0.57) out of 2. The lowest scores were associated with the methods and funding sections. Methodologically, the principal weaknesses were linked to sample size, loss to follow-up, and bias control.Conclusion: The frequency of cohort studies in CAM was limited, predominantly concentrated in a few countries. Chinese medicine and acupuncture were the main intervention methods, while other CAM interventions received less focus. Furthermore, the quality of these studies was deemed unsatisfactory in most cases.","PeriodicalId":49173,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Public Health","volume":"54 1","pages":"74-87"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11787836/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143123894","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}

The search period was until January 29, 2024, encompassing all relevant studies published up to that date. Literature screening and data extraction were conducted by two researchers, and the PROBAST was used to evaluate the bias risk and applicability of the included literature.Results: Finally, 9 literatures were included, 13 prediction models were established, and the area under the AUC or C-index ranged from 0.660 to 0.943. Nine models were validated internally and one model was validated externally. All the models constructed in the included literature are of high-risk bias, and the applicability of the models is reasonable. Common predictors in the prediction model were Wagner scale, glycosylated hemoglobin, and diabetic peripheral neuropathy.Conclusion: Although most of the existing DFU risk prediction models have good prediction performance, they all have high risk of bias.

This study evaluated the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on suicide attempts in the Kerman Province, eastern Iran.Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. Data on suicide attempt cases in Kerman Province was obtained from the database of Mental, Social, and Addiction Health Office of the Deputy for Health of Medical Sciences Universities from 2018 to 2021. An interrupted time-series model was used to assess the changes in suicide attempts before and after the pandemic.Results: Suicide attempts exhibited a decreasing trend before the pandemic, with a monthly decrease of 0.9% (P<0.001). The immediate effect of the pandemic indicated that, at the beginning of the pandemic, there was a 4.5% increase in suicide attempts (P=0.134). The sustained effect of the pandemic showed that in the months following the onset of the pandemic, the rate of suicide attempts increased by 1.8% compared to before the pandemic (P<0.001). By the end of 2021, the number of suicide attempts per month exceeded the predicted amount based on pre-pandemic data. Factors such as marital status, education, occupation, place of residence, and previous suicide attempts were found to influence suicide attempts during the pandemic.Conclusion: Given the significant increase in suicide attempts following the onset of the pandemic, it is crucial to prioritize the implementation of prevention and intervention programs during this crisis.","PeriodicalId":49173,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Public Health","volume":"54 1","pages":"195-204"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11787849/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143123871","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}

Given such difficulties, they may experience a high level of negative emotion (NE) that aggravates their risk of suicidal ideation. As a positive psychological trait, self-acceptance is very important to promote the mental health of disabled college students and reduce their risk of committing suicide. A state of high-intensity hopelessness easily mediates the influence of the NE and self-acceptance of disabled college students.Methods: A group questionnaire survey was conducted among 663 college students with disabilities across 16 universities from Zhejiang Province, Jiangsu Province, Shanghai City and Anhui Province of China. These surveys involved the use of a self-acceptance questionnaire, NE questionnaire, suicidal ideation questionnaire, and the Beck hopelessness scale, and the mediating role of hopelessness in the influence of NE and self-acceptance on the suicidal ideation of disabled college students was tested.Results: Self-acceptance had a significantly negative influence on suicidal ideation (P<0.01), while NE exerted a significantly positive influence (P<0.01). Hopelessness partially mediated the influence of NE on the suicidal ideation of disabled college students and exerted a masking effect on the influence of self-acceptance on suicidal ideation. Hopelessness was a key psychological mechanism that bonds NE and self-acceptance with suicidal ideation.Conclusion: The mental health intervention measures for disabled college students should include self-acceptance strategies and skills for reducing these students' NE to relieve their hopelessness and further reduce their risk of committing suicide.","PeriodicalId":49173,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Public Health","volume":"53 12","pages":"2759-2767"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11693793/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142933264","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}

The study focused on genotyping four specific SNPs, RAN (rs14035), GEMIN3 (rs197412), GEMIN4 (rs2740348), and Dicer (rs3742330), using advanced ARMS-PCR and Tetra-primer ARMS-PCR techniques.Results: Notably, our investigation revealed the significant inverse association between the C/C genotype of rs197412 in the GEMIN3 gene and CRC risk (OR=0.54, 95% CI=0.33-0.87; P=0.0087). In stark contrast, the T/T genotype of rs14035 in the RAN gene was strongly associated with a heightened risk of developing CRC (OR=4.44, 95% CI=2.60-7.57, P<0.0001). Furthermore, we found that the G/G genotype of rs2740348 in GEMIN4 posed an increased risk for CRC (OR=2.9, 95% CI=1.44-5.85, P=0.0041) and it has a major effect on CRC risk in our population. The alleles and genotypes of rs3742330 in Dicer, however, did not exhibit a significant correlation with CRC.Conclusion: Our study provides compelling evidence that SNPs within miRNA processing genes significantly contribute to susceptibility to CRC among the Iranian population. Our research not only contributes to the growing body of miRNA-related genetic studies but also opens avenues for population-specific risk assessment and personalized medicine approaches in cancer therapy.","PeriodicalId":49173,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Public Health","volume":"53 12","pages":"2812-2822"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11693808/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142933269","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}
