- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: Despite the large number of studies conducted on breastfeeding, no studies have yet examined the direct and indirect effects of socio-personal factors and mental health on breastfeeding.
Aim: This study aimed to analyze of the effects of mental health and socio-personal factors on breastfeeding in infants aged less than six months.
Method: This analytical cross-sectional study was conducted on 465 eligible mothers visiting general health centers in a northern city of Iran, in 2015. Data were collected using the researcher-made scale of socio-personal factors of breastfeeding, Spielberger’s State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Beck’s Depression Inventory, Cohen’s Perceived Stress Scale, the Breastfeeding Difficulties Questionnaire, the Access to Healthcare Questionnaire, and the Poor Health Behaviors Questionnaire.
Results: The path analysis of the mental health variables showed that breastfeeding problems are associated through a direct path with depression, through an indirect path with stress, and through both paths with anxiety; a positive correlation was thus observed between these variables and breastfeeding problems. Poor health behaviors also contributed to mothers’ breastfeeding problems through a direct path and indirectly by affecting their level of depression. Income had the highest positive effect (B=0.66), while the number of children had the highest negative effect (B=-3.16) on breastfeeding problems through a direct path. Poor health behaviors had the highest positive effect (B=0.75) and family support had the highest negative effect (B=-0.11) on breastfeeding.
Implications for Practice: The early diagnosis of poor postpartum mental health in mothers can help reduce breastfeeding problems.- انتشار مقاله: 29-07-1396

- چکیده انگلیسی: Background & aim: Reproductive health has been documented as international human rights. In this respect, residing in slums can lead to poor reproductive health status due to reduced access to healthcare services. Therefore, the present study was conducted to determine women’s reproductive health status in urban slums in southeast Iran.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, a total number of 400 married slum-dwelling women in southeastern Iran were selected through random sampling in 2017. The inclusion criteria were marriage, residence in slum areas, and age group of 15-49 years. To collect the data, the Reproductive Health Needs Assessment questionnaire was completed using face-to-face interviews. Descriptive statistics were employed to analyze the data using SPSS software (version 19).
Results: 67.8% of sample were women who were married before the age of 18. Also 36% of the subjects had more than four children, and 79.9% of them experienced an inter-pregnancy interval of less than 3 years. Moreover, 96.8% of the participants received prenatal care services, and 81% of the individuals used family planning methods. Unintended pregnancies experienced by 26% of the subjects, and 59% of them suffered from reproductive tract infections within the last year. The prevalence rate of sexual and physical violence were 40% and 20.5%, respectively.
Conclusion: Although the coverage of prenatal, childbirth, and family planning services was appropriate in this region, the domains of family planning, physical and sexual violence, as well as marriage age in women living in urban slums, were undesirable and required more efforts to be improved by reproductive health professionals.- انتشار مقاله: 09-07-1398

- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: Low birth weight is one of the most important health indicators for assessing the status of newborns in every country. It is, therefore, necessary to identify factors associated with this adverse pregnancy outcome. This study was conducted to determine predicting factors associated with low birth weight using path analysis.
Methods: This prospective study was performed on 719 eligible pregnant women with a gestational age of 24-28 weeks who visited the health centers in Ilam, Iran. The participants were selected through stratified cluster sampling. The data were collected using relevant scales and analyzed using SPSS software (version 19.0) and LISREL (version 8.8).
Results: The incidence rate of low birth weight was obtained at 7.5%. The risk scores of low birth weight were 2.7, 2.5, 3.3, 1.8, and 2.8 times higher in the participants with stress, anxiety, depression, domestic violence, and food insecurity, respectively, compared to those without the mentioned conditions. The goodness of fit index confirmed the favorable fit of the model. The most influential direct determinants of birth weight were the number of prenatal visits (β=0.19) and mother’s body mass index (β=0.02). The most important direct determinant of birth weight was stress in this study (β=-58.006).
Conclusion: The etiology of low birth weight is complex and may involve demographic characteristics, as well as nutrition, reproductive, and socioeconomic factors. Given that prenatal care and psychological and nutritional factors are the major determinants, it is essential to take fundamental steps, including the improvement of living standards and nutritional status in pregnant women, more regular prenatal care visits, and pre-conception counseling.- انتشار مقاله: 11-07-1397

- چکیده انگلیسی: Background
Recently there has been concern about grief following the loss of a child and the factors affecting its severity that have been less addressed in research. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between spiritual well-being, mental health and religiosity and grief severity in women who experienced the fetal or neonatal deaths.
Materials and Methods
A cross-sectional-analytical study was carried out on 200 women who experienced the perinatal deaths and referred to four hospitals affiliated to Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran. The data were collected using demographic questionnaire, Spiritual well-being scale (SWBS), Perinatal grief scale (PGS), Muslim religiosity scale (MRS), and General healthy questionnaire (GHQ). The data were analyzed using SPSS software version 19. LISREL software version 8.8 was used to test the designed model.
Results
There was a significant relationship between spiritual well-being level and the grief severity (p <0.001). Also, a significant relationship was observed between religiosity and mental health level and the grief severity (p <0.001). Religiosity has the most negative relationship (β=-0.838), and mental health has the most positive relationship (β=0.33) with the severity of fetal-neonatal grief.
Conclusion
According to the results, spiritual well-being and religiosity can reduce the grief severity; therefore, it is recommended that the interventional studies should be performed to minimize this problem.- انتشار مقاله: 02-06-1399
