- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: Patients with breast cancer are predisposed to some psychiatric symptoms and mental disorders as a result of their diagnosis or lifestyle. These problems cause patients to have daily stress, feelings of guilt, anxiety, a dysphoric mood, and impaired social relations. Such problems will lead to serious mental disorders. Therefore, life skills training may enable patients to cope better with these problems and improve their mental health.Methods: In an experimental study 50 breast cancer patients were randomly selected and assigned to two groups, experimental and control. The experimental group attended life skills training classes continuously for ten weeks. The duration of each class was two hours. Participants in both groups completed a General Health Questionnaire-28 form before the commencement of classes, after two weeks of training, and again at two months after course completion. The statistical method used in this study was the t-test. Results: In the life skills training group, patients' depressive and anxiety symptoms, somatization disorders, sleep disorders, and disorders of social functioning significantly decreased (P<0.0001). There was no change in the control group.Conclusion: The results show that life skills training can be considered a supportive method for symptoms of depression, anxiety, sleep, and somatic disorders in patients with breast cancer.

- چکیده انگلیسی: The purpose of present study was to evaluate fluoride, nitrate, iron, manganese and total hardness in drinking water of wells and reservoirs in Fereidonkenar, Mazandaran, Northern Iran and compare the results with national and international standards. This cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out on data during five years from the spring of 2008 until the autumn of 2013. Studies were performed on 430 samples in the different seasons and years taken from water and wastewater company (WWC). The results showed that the average fluoride, nitrate, iron, manganese, total hardness concentrations obtained were 0.42, 10.2, 0.136, 0.03, 382.28 mg/l, respectively. The analysis showed a negative correlation between nitrate and fluoride, iron and manganese and a positive correlation with the hardness. The mean fluoride concentration was less than the standard. Total hardness value was more than recommend standard. Nitrate was below 50 mg/l, in accordance with national and international standards. The amount of iron and manganese in drinking water were acceptable. So, except for low fluoride and high total hardness, there was no any problem in other investigated parameters.

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: The fourth most prevalent cancer worldwide and a major cause of death in developing countries is
gastric cancer (GC). Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), is a proto-oncogene expressed in different
solid tumors. This study aimed to evaluate possible associations of HER2 expression status with survival rate, age,
sex, tumor grade, histopathological type, and primary tumor location in patients with GC. Methods: Subjects were
enrolled in this cohort study after consideration of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Biopsy specimens were stained using
immunohistochemistry. Samples with a score of 3+ were considered to exhibit HER2 overexpression. The mentioned
variables were extracted from patients’ files as well as by clinical evaluation. The Kaplan-Meier method was applied
for analyzing the survival rate and Chi square for possible factor associations. Results: A total of 210 patients (25.2%
female and 74.8% male) were enrolled. In a 5-year follow-up (adherence rate: 45.7%), the average survival was 9.4±10.9
months. HER2 overexpression was evident in 24%. There was no statistically significant association found between
HER2 expression and primary tumor location (p-value=0.63), histopathological type (p-value=0.72), or tumor grade
(p-value=0.051). Furthermore, no statistically significant links were apparent with tumor grade in either male or female
groups as well as patients aged ≥60 and ˂60 years (all p-values >0.05). Moreover, no statistically significant association
was detected between HER2 expression status (p-value=0.88), sex (p-value=0.31), and age (p-value=0.055) with patient
survival. Conclusions: No statistically meaningful association was found between all parameters examined and HER2
expression status. Divergence of the results from earlier studies might be due to genetic variation. Thus, performing a
meta-analysis on certain races might be helpful for clarification.- انتشار مقاله: 27-11-1396
