The Methodological Quality Assessment of Published Papers based on Family-Centered Empowerment Model: A Scientometric Study

Amir Vahedian-Azimi, Fatemeh Alhani*, Farshid Rahimi-Bashar Pages 1-7

Background

According to the widespread prevalence of different chronic diseases, nurses need to know the choices, necessities, and abilities of patients. The study purpose was to investigate the methodological quality of published papers based on Family-Centered Empowerment Model (FCEM).

Methods

This study was a systematic review. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline was used to retrieve all national and international studies in the field of FCEM. The final papers were reviewed for different methodological dimensions using three quantitative scales: Jadad, Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) 2010, and Newcastle-Ottawa, and qualitative scale of Cochrane risk of bias.

Findings

In the initial search, 644 papers were retrieved; following PRISMA screening guideline, 47 relevant papers were recognized. Jadad scale scores showed that one study received a score of 5 and 33 received a score of less than 3. Consort scale scores indicated that four studies were scored 7 and the same number were scored less than 5. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale scores showed that 13 studies were scored 8, and 4 were scored less than 4. The five dimensions of Cochranechr('39')s risk of bias scale are detailed in the paper.

Conclusion

The methodological quality of applied studies based on the FCEM was relatively good, but their reporting style and quality were inadequate.

The Association of Food Pattern and Sperm Quality Parameters and Biochemical Markers in Infertile Men: A Review Study

Mehran Nouri, Mohammad Tavasoli, Atefe Nozari, Gholamreza Askari* Pages 2-6

Background

Regarding that in the most of studies, the effects of each micronutrient such as folate, zinc, and various antioxidants have been considered separately, the aim of this study was to review dietary patterns and their relationship with sperm concentration, count, motility, morphology, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage as well as some biochemical parameters such as homocysteine levels in infertile men.

Methods

In this study, through search in scientific databases and using keywords such as ‘infertility’, ‘sterility’, ‘sub-fertility’, ‘fertility’, ‘dietary pattern’, ‘diet type’, ‘eating pattern’, and ‘diet’, published papers during 1980-2018 were extracted. After that, only studies that investigated the food pattern were included. Finally, 5 studies were used for this study.

Findings

The studies showed a positive relationship between healthy eating patterns and sperm’s density, motility, and quality. Men with healthier eating pattern had better sperm index. It was also shown in studies that there was a direct relationship between the dietary pattern, the amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and DNA damage, so that the ROC caused a negative effect on the spermatogenesis by inducing oxidative stress and altering the density and compression of the sperm nucleus.

Conclusion

Studies have shown a positive association between dietary pattern and sperm parameters damage, so that a healthy diet is an indicator of success in improving sperm parameters. More studies are needed with a high statistical population to conclude definitively.

Effectiveness of The Kazdin Method for Parenting on reduction of Aggression and Low-Breaking in students with oppositional defiant disorder (ODD)

Maryam Fooladvand, Mohammad Ali Nadi*, Ahmad Abedi, Ilnaz Sajjadian Pages 158-166

Background

The aimed to determine the effectiveness of The Kazdin Method of Parenting Training on reduction of Aggression, Low- breaking and Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) in students.

Methods

The study employed a pre-test, post-test and follow-up quasi-experimental design with the control group. The population consisted of all boy first-to-third grade elementary students with ODD in Educational District 3 of Isfahan City. They were selected via the stratified random sampling method so that with the selection of 10 schools done by Educational District 3 of Isfahan in the academic year 2017-2018, 230 boy first-to-third grade elementary students with ODD were listed. From among them, 30 students were randomly selected and divided into two experimental and control groups based on a higher score than the cut-off point on the subscales of non-observance of the law and aggression according to The Achenbach Child Behavior Checklist (ACBCL) (1978) and a clinical interviews conducted by school counseling. In this study, the Kazdin parenting intervention program (2005) was administered to the experimental group twice a week for twelve 1.5-hour sessions. The data obtained from questionnaires regarding the two groups in three stages of measurement were analyzed via the repeated measure.

Findings

The data from the implementation of questionnaires on two groups in three measurement stages were analyzed using the Repeated Measures ANOVA. The results indicated that the Kazdin Method of Parenting led to a significant reduction in ODD (F=20.57; p=0.001) and also the reduction in subscales of law-breaking (F=29.81; P=0.001), and aggression (F=10.33; P=0.001).

Conclusion

This effect remained constant in the three-month follow-up stage. Since the Kazdin Method of Parenting reduces the ODD, aggression and law-breaking, and also reduces the parent-child conflicts, thus, parents can use it as an effective intervention to reduce symptoms of ODD, aggression, and law-breaking.

Sleep Behaviors and Their Relationship to Obesity in Iranian Adults

Behnoosh Boozari, Parvaneh Saneei, Seyed Morteza Safavi* Pages 167-173

Background

Obesity and its comorbidities have appeared as a leading public health concern. Obesity has been shown in previous studies to be influenced by short sleep duration. Our aim was to explore the relationship between BMI and sleep behaviors, including duration and disturbances in Iranian adults.

Methods

This cross-sectional study consisted of 395 adults chosen among students of Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, based on a multistage cluster random sampling method. Sleep characteristics were assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and clinically measured height and weight to calculate Body Mass Index (BMI). Linear logistic regression analyses were performed using components of the PSQI as predictors of overweight (BMI ≥ 25).

Findings

One-fourth of the participants had BMI ≥ 25, and 40.8% were poor-quality sleepers (PSQI > 5). Mean sleep duration was 6.39 (1.05) hours for participants. Among the men after controlling for age, socioeconomic status and education level, a significant negative relationship was found between sleep duration and body mass index: longer sleep was associated with lower BMI levels and this association was marginally significant in women and only in men sleep quality was associated to overweight and obesity.

Conclusion

This study’s findings highlight the high rate of overweight and obesity and sleep disturbances among students of Medical Sciences. These findings support extending the scope of wellness programs to promote healthy sleep among students. However, more research is needed to examine sleep and body composition as risk factors for disease development in Iranian adults.

Maliheh Khanahmadi, Maryam Mirlohi*, Zahra Esfandiari Pages 174-179

Background

Preparation of ready-to-eat food in deep frying causes chemical changes including oil oxidation, polymerization, hydrolysis and accumulation of lipid oxidation products. The present study aimed to evaluate the quality of oil absorbed in ready-to-eat foods.

Methods

In this descriptive study, 60 food samples including 26, 17 and 17 of fried potato, chicken and mushrooms were collected from restaurants in different regions of Isfahan. Peroxide value was measured using spectrometer and acid and acidity values were determined by the method defined in national standard of Iran. Statistical analysis was performed using one-sample T-Test and one-way ANOVA in SPSS 20.

Findings

Average values of peroxide, acid and acidity of extracted oils were 6.79±1.7 meq/kg, 4.05 ± 0.88 KOH/g and 2.04 ± 0.33%, respectively. Overall, 66.66% and 100% of samples had peroxide and acidity values higher than the standard limit. Fried chickens had the highest amount acid value (P < 0.05). The amount of peroxide in fried potatoes was higher than other samples.

Conclusion

The measured oxidative values in fried potatoes, chicken and mushrooms compared to other studies were less; however, it was more than the range defined in the national standard of Iran. It seems that continuous monitoring and implementation of health guidelines for the quality of the studied products is necessary by health authorities.

Homamodin Javadzade, Abdollah Hajivandi, Sedighe Ghaedi, Mahnoush Reisi* Pages 180-186

Background

Lack of attention to health literacy by health professionals in relation to clients affects the quality and success of health services. The present study aimed to investigate the knowledge and practice of health care providers in Bushehr City, Iran, regarding health literacy and applying its related strategies in the process of communication with patients.

Methods

This was a cross-sectional descriptive-analytic study done on 91 health care careers in Bushehr. The samples were entered using a census method, and a researcher-made questionnaire was used to assess the level of knowledge and practice of healthcare providers about health literacy and applying related strategies in communication and education to clients. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics via SPSS software.

Findings

The level of knowledge of health care providers was weak about health literacy and its related strategies, and the status of performance and application of health literacy strategies in the process of communication and education to the clients was generally moderate. Health care providers with lower age (P = 0.022), less work experience (P = 0.009), contracted employment status (P = 0.008), and higher education level (P = 0.026) had better knowledge about the health literacy. Health care providers with higher levels of knowledge about health literacy strategies also had better performance in using these strategies in practice (P = 0.017).

Conclusion

Health care providers' knowledge about health literacy is weak, and there is moderate performance in applying health literacy strategies in the process of communication and education to the clients. Since health care providers who have a better understanding of health literacy strategies, use health literacy strategies more than others do; therefore, training courses is necessary to empower health care providers with the concept of health literacy and its effective role in patient education.

The Study of Relationship between Depression, Anxiety, and Stress with Social Support and Life Satisfaction in Mothers of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder

Hoda Nariman, Akbar Hassanzadeh, Amir Ghamarani, Maryam Amidi Mazaheri* Pages 199-205

Background

Mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) face significant pressures and challenges that may expose them to different psychological problems and can lead to their greater propensity to use of aggressive behaviors and less use of health services and programs offered to these children. This has a negative impact on the childchr('39')s development and leads to more disruptive behaviors. Therefore, the present research studies the relationship between depression, anxiety, and stress with social support and life satisfaction in mothers of children with ASD.

Methods

In this cross-sectional descriptive-analytical study, 47 mothers of children with ASD were selected by convenience sampling and completed the questionnaires of anxiety, depression, stress, social support, and life satisfaction.

Findings

Pearson correlation coefficient showed that there was no relationship between life satisfaction score with depression, anxiety, and stress scores (P > 0.05) and there was a significant negative relationship between social support score with depression (P = 0.020), anxiety (P = 0.040), and stress (P = 0.020) scores. Moreover, there was a direct relationship between life satisfaction score and social support (P = 0.010, r = 0.323).

Conclusion

Increase of social support for mothers of children with ASD leads to their increased life satisfaction and decreased depression, anxiety, and stress. Improving the social support of these mothers seems necessary.

Keywords: Depression, Anxiety, Stress, Social support, Life satisfaction, Autism spectrum disorder
