Abstract

 Background and Aim: Due to certain problems including being away from their families, entering a large and full-of-tension environment, and having economic problems caused by lack of sufficient income, students are likely to lose their mental health. This study is aimed to investigate college students' conditions and lifestyle at Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS).

 Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 120 students from School of Allied Medicine were selected through simple sampling. Data collection tools included demographic questions and a lifestyle questionnaire. After collecting the questionnaires and coding the questions, the obtained data were analyzed through such statistical tests as t-test and ANOVA using SPSS software version 18.

 Results: Students' scores on lifestyle test were in the intermediate range and far from a desired situation. A two-sample t-tests did not show a significant relationship between students' lifestyle and their gender and marital status (P>0.05). Moreover, ANOVA test didn't show a significant relationship between students' age and educational level on the one hand and their lifestyle factor on the other.

 Conclusion: The results of the study revealed that students' lifestyle scores were in the intermediate range and that the situation was far from good. Standard educational programs and interventions should be designed to change students' lifestyle. Nutritional and physical support systems and educational, cultural, and entertainment programs in the department of physical education can minimize the concerns and preoccupations of the studied population group.

Abstract

Background and Aim: All people living in a society are not equally at risk of COVID-19 infection and hospitalization. The current study is aimed to determine the factors related to COVID-19 infection and hospitalization among participants of Ravansar Non-Communicable Disease (RaNCD) cohort study. 
Materials and Methods: The present study was conducted between 28th February, 2020 to 27th November, 2021. Data from the RaNCD study, morbidity and hospitalizations cases (extracted from the medical care monitoring system, SAMA system and the handwritten list of the health department) and positive serological results were used. For the case-cohort study, 626 confirmed and/or probable cases and 2107 randomly selected participants as sub-cohort were recruited. For the case-control study, 188 COVID-19 hospitalized patients from RaNCD (as cases) and 632 positive outpatients identified as controls. Data were analyzed using Cox and logistic regression, respectively. 
Results: In case-cohort study, the hazard ratio of COVID-19 among people living in rural areas, in smokers and those in middle socioeconomic status was, 0.37 (0.24, 0.58), 1.50 (1.07, 2.11), as compared to the reference groups. While the hazard ratio of people aged 46-64 and those ≥65 years old, as compared to the reference group within the first year, was 3.47 (1.76, 6.86) and 6.45 (2.80, 14.85), the corresponding value after one year was 2.23 (1.13, 4.40) and 3.52 (1.53, 8.10), respectively. The hazard ratio among those with at least one comorbidity was 2.45 (1.53, 3.92) in the first year of study and after one year decreased to 1.82 (1.14, 2.92). In addition, moderate and vigorous physical activity decreased the hazard ratio. In case-control study the odds ratio of hospitalization increased by 0.03% (1.03(1.01, 1.05)) with an increase of one year in age and in people with at least three comorbidities was 2.43 (1.24, 4.73) times of those without comorbidity.     
Conclusion: Overall, one year after starting the study the decrease in hazard ratio of COVID-19 was significant. Increase in age and having comorbidities are factors that increased the odds ratio of hospitalization. Such people can be considered for the next waves of COVID-19 prioritized for health care and booster vaccination.

Abstract

Background and Aim: Malaria is one of the health challenges in many countries worldwide. Iran is among the countries that have prioritized a malaria elimination program, aiming to interrupt local transmission of the disease by 2025. Health workeres (community health workers) play an important role in primary healthcare for identifying, controlling, and preventing malaria. Keeping their knowledge and skills up-to-date through continuous training can be effective in the success of this program. Virtual training is a modern educational method that facilitates such training courses. This study aimed to investigate the impact of virtual retraining courses on the knowledge, attitude, and performance of konarak health workers in implementing the malaria elimination program in 2022.
Materials and Methods: This research was a quasi-experimental study with a single-group pre-test and post-test design. The population included 69 individuals who were enrolled using a census method. Initially, a pre-test was conducted to assess the baseline level of knowledge, attitude, and performance of participants regarding malaria elimination strategies. Then, the educational intervention was delivered virtually, followed by a post-test to evaluate the outcomes. The educational content was provided in eight 45-minute sessions by an instructor from the Health worker Training Center using the Sky Room platform. Data collection was performed using a researcher-made questionnaire. Content validity of the questionnaire was confirmed, and its reliability was assessed in a pilot study prior to the training by the responsible expert; the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of the questionnaire items was calculated at an acceptable level (r=0.83). Data were analyzed using SPSS software and paired t-tests.
Results: Out of 69 participants, 40 (58%) were male and 29 (42%) female. Comparison of pre-test and post-test results showed that the mean scores of knowledge, attitude, and performance of health workeres increased by 1.05, 1.2, and 1.17 units respectively after the training, and these differences were statistically significant (P=0.000).
Conclusion: Based on the results, considering the advantages of virtual training such as easy access, lower cost, and wide coverage, this method is recommended as a strategy for educational programs for healthcare staff.
