Abstract
Background and purpose: Considering the dimensions of organizational bullying and the context of its creation in the emergency department of the hospital, the decrease in the quality of patient care and the increase in dissatisfaction with the services received and the limited research studies in this area, the research was conducted in the emergency department of a hospital of Yazd University of Medical Sciences.
Materials and methods: To carry out this descriptive-analytical research, the interpretive structural modeling method was used. The experts included 30 doctors, nurses, and nurses who were either working in the emergency department of a Yazd University of Medical Sciences hospital or had experience of service in this department. From the extraction of these factors, they were returned to them for scoring, and the effects of these factors were measured from their point of view, and the final analysis was done by MATLAB software.
Results: The results show that the greatest effect in reducing bullying is related to "adequate training for personnel to communicate" and "proper and courteous treatment in the face of clients" (with influence power of 5) and the least effect is related to "creating a suitable comfortable environment". and "Perform appropriate triage" (with penetration power of 1).
Conclusion: Considering the destructive effects of bullying, creating appropriate mechanisms to reduce this phenomenon shown in this research and using the factors identified by the people involved in bullying can prevent this phenomenon, which occurs frequently in the emergency room of the hospital.

Abstract
Background: Cancer is often stigmatized in many societies and this has unfortunate consequences for sufferers. The aim of this research was to know the factors related to the social stigma of cancer.
Materials and Methods: The research method was correlation-analytical, and the sampling method was multi-stage cluster. Data were collected using CSI and CAM standard questionnaires.The statistical population included three categories of ordinary citizens, medical staff, and companions of patients in Tehran; Using Cochran's formula, the sample size was 384, 201, 384 people, respectively. In order to fit the model and measure the relationships between the variables, the method of structural equation modeling was used in the form of AMOS software.
Findings: Goodness of fit indices (chi-square/df=2.851, Rmsea=0.08, Cfi=0.945) all indicated the appropriate fit of the model. Except for the variable of inequality in treatment, other independent variables had a significant relationship with stigma. The r2 explanatory coefficient showed that the variables of habitus, optimism, cancer awareness, religiosity, social support, and social capital together predicted 48% of stigma changes. Habitus and social support with standard coefficients (beta) of 0.48 and -0.28 had the highest and lowest contribution in explaining stigma, respectively. Based on the mean difference test, the amount of stigma among ordinary people was more than the other two groups.
Conclusion: Awareness of different aspects of cancer disease (such as symptoms, causative factors), removing false stereotypes about cancer (such as cancer means death), constant communication with cancer patients, and receiving the necessary social support from various sources, were the most important tools necessary to reduce the stigma of cancer.

Abstract
Background and purpose: The COVID-19 pandemic has brought a significant shock to healthcare systems worldwide, including Iran. The mental health of nurses, who have been at the forefront of the fight against the virus, has been profoundly impacted. This study aims to examine the mental health status of Iranian nurses during the pandemic.
Methods: This rapid review was conducted by searching keywords such as "Mental Health," "Nurse," and "COVID-19" in databases including Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, ProQuest, Mag Iran, and Civilica. Articles were selected based on their titles, abstracts, and full texts in alignment with the study’s research objectives.
Results: The reviewed studies revealed a range of mental health disorders among nurses working in COVID-19 wards, with stress, anxiety, and depression being the most common. Several factors, such as demographic variables and the specific departments where nurses served, were identified as influencing their mental health. Given that the mental health of nurses affects the quality of care, resilience, and job satisfaction, various strategies have been proposed to improve their mental health.
Conclusion: The findings suggest that the mental health status of nurses is not at an optimal level, and neglecting this issue could lead to long-term harm to the healthcare system and its economic stability. It is recommended that healthcare managers and policymakers implement appropriate measures to address this critical concern.
