- چکیده انگلیسی: Background and Objective: Maternal health literacy includes cognitive and social skills, providing the motivation and ability for pregnant women to access, understand, and use the health information. Given the effect of maternal health literacy on health of mothers and their children, recognizing the maternal health literacy level in pregnant women is essential. Thus, the present study was conducted to evaluate the relationship between maternal health literacy and prenatal care and its outcomes among the women who have recently given birth and admitted to Yazd health centers in 2017.
Method: This descriptive-analytical study was conducted on 390 women. They were selected using multistage cluster sampling method. The data collection tools were maternal health literacy level and pregnancy outcome questionnaires. Data were analyzed using SPSS (version 21). The significant level was considered 0.05.
Results: The mean score of health literacy score was 54.67 ± 9.85 and the mean score of pregnancy outcomes was 47.41 ± 6.2 and Pearson correlation test showed a significant correlation between health literacy and pregnancy outcomes (R=0.633, p<0.0001). Maternal health literacy was also associated with cares such as proper weight gain during pregnancy and the use of some supplements (folic acid and multivitamin), but it did not show any significant association with the nutritional status of the neonate and birth weight.
Conclusion: As a significant relationship was found between maternal health literacy and pregnancy outcome, the mothers should be encouraged for pregnancy cares by providing proper health and up-to-date information and materials required by pregnant mothers in healthcare centers.

- چکیده انگلیسی: Background & aim: High health literacy enhances informed decision-making for cervical cancer screening (i.e., a Pap smear) among women. The present study aimed to determine the health literacy related to cervical cancer in women referring to health centers of Yazd, Iran.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on a total of 800 women in 2018. The study participants were selected using systematic random sampling. To collect data a valid and reliable health literacy questionnaire was used to address different aspects of cervical cancer health literacy (i.e., accessibility, reading, understanding, appraising, and decision-making). Data analysis was carried out using Pearson's correlation, independent samples t-test, and multivariate analysis of variance with SPSS software (version 20).
Results: The mean age of the participants was 35.85±7.99 years. The mean score of the overall health literacy was reported as 67.46±15.59 and the mean score of the subscales of accessibility, reading, understanding, appraising, and decision-making were 13.34±4.25, 13.29±3.06, 11.25±3.56, 12.72±13, and 16.84±6.16, respectively. Also, there was a significant relationship between health literacy with age, employment status, income level, and daily consumption of fruits and vegetables (p <0.001).
Conclusion: The present study indicated that women's level of health literacy in terms of cervical cancer was low in Yazd; therefore, health care providers should pay special attention to women using modern educational methods as well as appropriate educational technologies in order to enhance women's health literacy regarding cervical cancer.- انتشار مقاله: 23-01-1399
