Objectives
The aims of the study were to translate into Persian and culturally adapt the Kessler Psychological Distress Scales, K10 and K6, and to assess their reliability and validity.Method
The sample was recruited from primary health care (PHC) settings by quota nonprobability sampling, stratified by sex and age. Validity was assessed against the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (v2.1). The psychometric properties of K6 and K10 were also compared with the 12‐item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ‐12).Results
A total of 818 participants completed the questionnaire. Cronbach's alpha were 0.92 and 0.87 for K6 and K10, respectively. Optimal cutoff scores for detecting any mood or anxiety disorder in the past 30 days were 15 for K10 and 10 for K6. At these cutoff points, the measures had sensitivities of 0.77 and 0.73, specificities of 0.74 and 0.78, and positive predictive values of 0.48 and 0.52, respectively. Psychometric properties of K10 and K6 were similar to GHQ‐12.Conclusion
Persian K10 and K6 have acceptable psychometric properties as screening instruments for common mental health conditions. Given its brevity and similar psychometric properties to the longer instruments, the Persian K6 appears to be a suitable scale for use in PHC settings and, possibly, epidemiologic studies in Iran.82.

Background/Objective:
To determine the prevalence of traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) in Tehran, Iran.Methods:
A population-based study was performed. In a random cluster sampling, 100 addresses were selected as the starting point of the survey for each cluster consisting of 25 households. To expand the geographic dimension of each cluster, the interviewers skipped 3 of 4 houses in gathering data for each study unit. Each person with traumatic SCI was evaluated initially by a nurse and then by a neurosurgeon by physical examination and spinal imaging at the hospital or at home.Results:
Ninety-seven percent of all surveyed agreed to participate in the study (2,425 households, or 9,006 persons). Four cases of SCI were identified. The point prevalence of SCI was 4.4 [95% CI = 1.2–11.4] per 10,000 people. Over the 5-year period from January 2003 through January 2008, the reported incidence rate of SCI was 2.2 (95% CI = 0.27–8.00) per 10,000 people.Conclusions:
In this, the first published population-based study from Iran, the prevalence of traumatic SCI in Tehran ranged from 1.2 to 11.4 per 10,000 people. More research is required to determine the patterns and causes of SCI. Development of a nationwide SCI registry or surveillance system is fundamental to an understanding of the epidemiology, and hence the prevention, of this costly health problem. 相似文献85.

Objective: Injuries are common and important problem in Tehran, capital of Iran. Although therapeutic centers are not essentially established following the constructional principles of developed countries, the present opportunities and equipments have to be used properly. We should recognize and reduce the deficits based on the global standards.This study deliberates the trauma resources and capacities in university hospitals of Tehran based on Arizona trauma center standards, which are suitable for the assessment of trauma centers.Methods: Forty-one university hospitals in Tehran were evaluated for their conformity with "Arizona trauma center standards" in 2008. A structured interview was arranged with the "Educational Supervisor" of all hospitals regarding their institutional organization, departments, clini-cal capabilities, clinical qualifications, facilities and resources, rehabilitation services, performance improvement, continuing education, prevention, research and additional requirements for pediatric trauma patients. Relative frequencies and percentages were calculated and Student's t test was used to compare the mean values.Results: Forty-one hospitals had the average of 77.7 (50.7%) standards from 153 Arizona trauma center standards and these standards were present in 97.5 out of 153 (63.7%) in 17 general hospitals. Based on the subgroups of the standards, 64.8% items of hospital resources and capabilities were considered as a subgroup with the maximum criteria, and 17.7% items of research section as another subgroup with the minimum standards.Conclusions: On the basis of our findings, no hospital meet all the Arizona trauma center standards completely. The hospitals as trauma centers at different levels must be promoted to manage trauma patients desirably. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The spinal cord may be affected in different ways in the course of tuberculous infection. The objective of this study was to determine the epidemiologic features, clinical manifestations, pathophysiologic mechanisms, neurologic sequels, and treatment outcomes of tuberculous myelopathy in the southeast of Iran in which the disease is endemic. METHOD: A retrospective study was scheduled. All cases of tuberculous myelopathy treated in our hospital over the last 7 years were reviewed. Only those with histologic or microbiologic confirmation or those who responded to antituberculous therapy were included. RESULTS: During a 7-year period, 43 cases of tuberculous myelopathy were found. The most frequent clinical manifestations were backache (86%) and fever (67%). Twenty patients were paraparetic or paraplegic and 40% had kyphosis. Imaging studies revealed thoracic and/or lumbar spine involvement in 92% of patients with tuberculous spondylitis. Fifteen, five and two patients had sensorimotor spinal cord syndrome, radiculomyelitis and intramedullary syringomyelic syndrome, respectively. Forty-seven percent required surgical intervention. There was improvement in 81% of the cases. CONCLUSION: Different pathophysiologic mechanisms acted on the clinical manifestations of spinal neurotuberculosis. A good outcome is expected if the diagnosis is made in the early stages before the appearance of spinal deformity and neurologic deficits. 相似文献

Purpose: Shoulder dislocation is a common joint dislocation managed by the emergency physicians in
the emergency departments. Pre- and post-reduction radiographic examinations have long been the
standard practice to confirm the presence of dislocation and the successful reduction. However, shoulder ultrasonography has recently been proposed as an alternative to the radiographic examination. This study aimed to assess the accuracy of ultrasonography in evaluating proper reduction of the dislocated joint.
Methods: This was a prospective observational study. All patients with confirmed anterior shoulder
dislocation were examined by both ultrasonography and radiography after the attempt for reduction of
the dislocated joint. The examiners were blinded to the result of the other imaging modality. Results of the two methods were then compared.
Results: Overall, 108 patients with confirmed anterior shoulder dislocation were enrolled in the study. Ninety-one (84.3%) of the patients were males. Mean age of the participants was (30.11 ± 11.41) years. The majority of the patients had a recurrent dislocation. Bedside ultrasonography showed a sensitivity of 53.8% (95% CI: 29.1%e76.8%) and a specificity of 100% (95% CI: 96.1%e100%) in detecting inadequate reductions. The results of ultrasonography had a statistically significant agreement with the results of radiography (Kappa ¼ 0.672, p < 0.001).
Conclusion: The results suggest that the sensitivity of post-reduction ultrasound is not sufficient for it to serve as a substitute for radiography. 相似文献

An exploratory epidemiological study was conducted for 319 deceased nuclear workers who had intakes of transuranic radionuclides and histories of employment during the time period from 1943 to 1995. The workers were employed at various facilities throughout the United States, including the Department of Energy defense facilities and uranium mining and milling sites. The majority of individuals were involved in documented radiological incidents during their careers. All had voluntarily agreed to donate their organs or whole body to the United States Transuranium and Uranium Registries. External and internal dose assessments were performed using occupational exposure histories and postmortem concentrations of transuranic radionuclides in critical organs. Statistical data analyses were performed to investigate the potential relationship between radiation exposure and causes of death within this population due to cancers of the lungs, liver, and all sites combined while controlling for the effects of other confounders. No association was found between radiation exposure and death due to cancer (α = 0.05). However, statistically significant associations were found between death due to any type of cancer and smoking (yes or no) (odds ratio = 5.41; 95% CI: 1.42 to 20.67) and rate of cigarette smoking (packs per day) (odds ratio = 2.70; 95% CI: 1.37 to 5.30). 相似文献
