The most populous countries with below replacement fertility are China, the United States of America, Brazil, the Russian Federation, Japan, Vietnam, Germany, the Islamic Republic of Iran, and Thailand, in order of population size

One of these injuries is exposure to needle-sticks. This can result in the transmission of blood-borne diseases, such as HIV and hepatitis B; the staff undergo continuous stress. Thus, it is necessary to use some method to reduce this stress. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of education based on the stabilization model on stress induced exposure to needle sticks among nurses working in emergency and trauma wards. Patients and Methods: This Quast- Experiental Study was performed on 35 nurses working in emergency and trauma wards of our hospital in October-December 2013. Data were collected using a two-part questionnaire; Reliability and validity of the questionnaire were confirmed (α = 0. 92 and ICC = 0.94).Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20. The one-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, independent t-test and paired sample t-test were also used. Results: The mean and standard deviat...

A trauma registry usually entails detailed information about the demographics, cause, intensity of the injury, and the final diagnosis and outcome of the trauma-affected patient. Researchers should be able to evaluate all aspects of trauma injury and patient’s status. Objectives: The purpose of this study was therefore to develop a trauma questionnaire for Iran. Materials and Methods: The development of the trauma registry form began in February 2013. The variables were finalized by a team consisting of general and trauma surgeons, specialists in emergency medicine, orthopedicians, neurosurgeons, and public health professionals who have special interest in trauma outcome research. The scale was sent to 10 specialists for validation. Results: After assessing the scale validity twice, it was accepted with an integrator agreement of 0.89. The test-retest reliability ...

In 2012, the WHO reported 3.7 mil-lion deaths attributable to ambient air pollution and 4.3 mil-lion deaths due to household air pollution. In new estimates, it reports that one in eight of all global deaths are due to air pollution.This figure more than doubles previous estimates and confirms that air pollution is now the world’s largest single environmental health hazard [2]. Preventing or reducing air pollution can save millions of lives [2].Two of the most harmful urban air pollutants are nitric oxide and coarse particulate matter. In cities with rows of tall buildings a unique urban habitat known as a “street-can-yon” may develop trapping pollutants. Stagnant air lingers in street-canyons increasing the concentration of pollutants [1].Four of the 10 worst-polluted cities in the world according to the WHO, are in Iran. The number one s...
