The aim of this study was to determine the effect of mathematical calculation and drug dosage training programs on math anxiety and nursing students’ drug dosage calculation skills. Methods & Materials: The present research was a non-randomized trial study. As a result of available sampling, 80 nursing students (40 in the control group and 40 in the intervention group) participated in the study. The study intervention included a mathematical and drug dosage training program including lecture, workshop, and practicing mathematical and drug calculations at the patient’s bedside. The data were collected using a demographic, Betz’ math anxiety, and drug dosage calculation skills questionnaires. Finally, descriptive and analytical statistics were used to analyze the data. Results: The two groups were homogeneous in terms of demographic variables, math anxiety, and drug calculation scores in the baseline. Two-way ANOVA with repeated measures indicated the significant effect of the group on math anxiety (P = 0.024). Given the interaction between group effect and time for the drug dosage calculations, the comparison of the differences between the second time and third time scores of the baseline scores ​​showed a statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of drug dosage calculations (P <0.001). Conclusion: Implementation of a drug dosage calculation training program for nursing students can lead to the reduction of math anxiety and improvement of the drug dosage calculations; this can ultimately help improve patient safety. https://npt.tums.ac.ir/index.php/npt/article/view/1156 https://npt.tums.ac.ir/index.php/npt/article/download/1156/489

This study aimed to determine the effects of anxiety and depression on lupus patients’ quality of life. Methods & Materials: This study adopted a correlational predictive survey design. Using convenience sampling, we recruited 117 patients who had been diagnosed with lupus at a general tertiary hospital in Korea. Structured questionnaires were used to assess their demographic and clinical characteristics, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and Lupus Quality of Life. Data analyses included descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation analysis, and stepwise multiple regression analysis and were performed with the SAS program (version 9.4). Results: The participants obtained a mean overall quality of life score of 63.49 out of 100. The highest and lowest means emerged for physical health and burden to others, respectively. Anxiety emerged as the strongest predictor of quality of life, followed by disease activity, depression, and disease duration. These variables explained 53 % of the variance in lupus patients’ quality of life. Conclusion: Medical professionals should pay close attention to each lupus patient's disease activity and duration to improve his or her quality of life. In particular, multidisciplinary efforts are needed to take proactive steps to screen for anxiety and depression in lupus patients. https://npt.tums.ac.ir/index.php/npt/article/view/1214 https://npt.tums.ac.ir/index.php/npt/article/download/1214/492

This study investigates the impact of using an educational mobile application on self-care behaviors in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods & Materials:  A randomized clinical trial was conducted with 110 patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions at Shahid Rajaei Hospital in Karaj, Iran, in 2023. The study enrolled and assigned them to either the intervention group (n=55) or the control group (n=55) by block randomization. In addition to training upon discharge, the experimental group received educational resources via a mobile phone application. The data collection instruments included MSCBS. Patients completed the MSCBS before the intervention and 4 weeks later. The data were analyzed with SPSS 21. The study's level of significance was set to P<0.05. Results: Before the intervention, there was no significant difference in the self-care scores and the subscales between the two groups (P<0.05). Nonetheless, After the intervention, a significant difference was observed in the self-care scores and the subscales between the control and intervention groups, (p=0.001), and the difference in scores between the control and intervention groups increased significantly after the intervention and the scores of the intervention group had a significant increase compared to the scores of the control group. Conclusion: The study showed that the mobile phone educational application could improve self-care behaviors in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions.

The present study was conducted to determine the role of the five big personality traits and resilience in adherence to self-isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods & Materials: A prospective longitudinal cohort study tracked 112 healthcare providers who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2. Using GPS data from their cell phones, researchers assessed self-isolation adherence over 14 days. Participants completed NEO-Five-Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI) and Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) questionnaires. Results: Sixty-one (58.7%) of the subjects violated their self-isolation, and 43 (41.3%) did not violate it during the 14 days after PCR positivity for COVID-19. After adjustment for potential confounders, results showed that only two of the five big personality traits included, conscientiousness (AOR=1.37; 95%CI: 1.15–1.63) and neuroticism (AOR=0.85; 95%CI: 0.74–0.98), were significantly related to the self-isolation adherence. This means a one-unit increase in conscientiousness is associated with 37% higher odds of self-isolation adherence, while a one-unit increase in neuroticism reduces self-isolation adherence by 15%.  Resilience was the main predictor for self-isolation adherence in which a one-unit increase in resilience score, the odds of adherence to self-isolation significantly increased by 18% (AOR=1.18, 95%CI: 1.07–1.30) (P<0.001). Conclusion: The study suggests that fostering conscientiousness and resilience among individuals may enhance self-isolation commitment during pandemics. Further research is needed to explore the influence of agreeableness, extraversion, and openness to experience on self-isolation adherence. https://npt.tums.ac.ir/index.php/npt/article/view/3214 https://npt.tums.ac.ir/index.php/npt/article/download/3214/625
