Introducing the Fifth Quarterly Journal of Health Science Monitor and Call for Research Submissions
We are delighted to announce the arrival of the fifth Quarterly Journal of Health Science Monitor, just in time for this summer. In this edition, it is our pleasure to present to you a selection of eight compelling online articles deserving your utmost attention:
Due to the prevalence of the new coronavirus, it is essential to know the level of people's knowledge, attitude, and practice toward this disease to plan preventive decisions. The purpose of the present study was to investigate knowledge, attitude, and practice in over 20-year-old individuals regarding the new coronavirus in Iran. The findings of this study reveal that the knowledge, attitude, and practice of the people about the coronavirus are almost at the optimal level.
During the quarantine, children spent significantly more time on screens and less time on physical activity and sleep. It is not an exaggeration to say that COVID-19 has physically affected 2% of the entire society, but mentally, all the society has been affected by this disease. For this reason, it is crucial to pay attention to the mental issue in this pandemic, and the most vulnerable group of society, both physically and mentally, are students.
AIDS is a disease for which there is currently no effective vaccine and basic treatment, the only way to fight AIDS is to prevent infection, which is possible with health education. This study was conducted with the aim of comparing the effect of two types of AIDS prevention, educational interventions by peer and adult groups on awareness and behavior among high school students in Mashhad. The findings showed peers' good understanding of the social and cultural environment of the target group would improve social norms and healthy behaviors, which are among the advantages of this method. The results can be used for the educational planning of students because it shows the level of knowledge of students at the pre-university level and the educational needs of students for appropriate educational planning.
Aerobic capacity has a significant impact on both health and work performance. Therefore, the present study was carried out to determine aerobic capacity and to analysis individual factors associated with VO2max among university students. This study showed that lack of regular exercise and a subsequent increase in BMI may lead to a significant decrease in VO2max.
One of the most common benign tumors that arise from the smooth muscles of the uterine wall is leiomyoma. In this study, the levels of malondialdehyde and total antioxidant capacity were assessed in leiomyoma patients and compared with healthy individuals. The findings showed a relationship between leiomyoma and oxidative stress indicators.
This study designed a multi-epitope vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 based on the virus S protein, and evaluated its biochemical and immune stimulatory features using in silico approaches. The findings of this study showed that the designed multi-epitope vaccine against COVID-19 could be considered as a suitable candidate for experimental studies.
Adequate saliva flow is a prerequisite for a healthy periodontium, and the salivary urea concentration is an important parameter for tooth and gum health. The purpose of the present study was to investigate salivary urea concentration in opioid users. The findings of the study showed that enhance salivary urea concentration in drug addicts could increase chronic periodontitis.
The present study aimed to investigate the cost–effectiveness of Jejunostomy tube (JT) in patients with oesophageal cancer who underwent esophagectomy, compared to those who fed by the Common Nutritional Method (CNM) to determine whether performing JT saves costs and time for hospitals and patients undergoing esophagectomy. According to the findings, jejunostomy tube is cost-effective and preferable to the common nutritional method with a decreased median of oral intake start day, a decreased span of hospitalization, fewer complications in the nutritional support of the patients undergoing esophagectomy, and finally, more comfort for patients.
