Objectives: Approximately one-third of women having breast surgery experience neuropathic pain although no study has so far identified its risk factors. It seems that the coronavirus infection increases the likelihood of neuropathic pain through influencing the neuropsychological system. Therefore, the current study aimed to investigate factors affecting the severity of neuropathic pain before and after coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) in patients who had breast cancer surgery. Materials and Methods: The current descriptive-analytical study was conducted six months before June 4, 2020. In total, 40 women having breast surgery participated in this study. Postoperative neuropathic pain and its influencing factors were evaluated using demographic tools, Spielberger anxiety, and a 36-item short-form health survey for measuring the quality of life (QoL). Finally, data were analyzed by multivariate regression. Results: Neuropathic pain significantly increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. Mastectomy (P=0.009), removal of lymph nodes (P=0.011), number of radiotherapy sessions (P=0.003), history of chemotherapy (P=0.009), disease stage (P=0.015), hidden anxiety (P=0.005), and explicit anxiety (P=0.001), and all domains of QoL (P<0.05) significantly predicted neuropathic pain. Conclusions: In general, adverse effects of coronavirus pandemic reduced the QoL while increasing anxiety (hidden and explicit), thus leading to an increase in the severity of postoperative neuropathic pain.

Objectives: Considering that the prevalence of infertility in Iran is higher than the world average and there is no system for recording these individuals’ data, this study aimed at designing and validating infertility data recording tools in Iran. Materials and Methods: This questionnaire study was conducted in Tabriz in 2019. Five areas were prepared for the questionnaire (i.e., in vitro fertilization or intracytoplasmic sperm injection, intrauterine insemination, ovulation induction) and treatment outcomes) and used after reviewing the studies. The Delphi quantitative technique was applied to standardize and validate the questionnaire through evaluating five infertility specialists. The content validity index (CVI), content validity ratio (CVR), and coefficient of agreement (Cohen’s kappa coefficient) were employed to assess content validity through a quantitative approach. Finally, the reliability of the questionnaire was evaluated using the Kuder-Richardson formula through the evaluation of 50 infertile couples visiting AL-Zahra specialized and super-specialized hospital in Tabriz. Results: The CVI and CVR of all items were calculated and obtained greater than 0.8 except for items 8, 17, and 18 and thus were identified as appropriate items in the questionnaire. Kappa coefficients (k) were also calculated and found to be greater than 0.8 for all items except for the three above-mentioned items. The items with lower than an acceptable CVI, CVR, and k were modified, and the k of the total items was obtained as 0.95. Eventually, the reliability of the questionnaire and its domains were assessed, and the reliability coefficient of the questionnaire was higher than 0.64, which was acceptable. Conclusions: A questionnaire was designed to evaluate the history and clinical problems of infertile couples with 5 domains and 61 items to record their information (desirable validity and reliability) in their clinical records.

Background and Purpose: In addition, magnesium is prescribed intravenously, epidurally, or intraperitoneally, each of which may have different effects depending on the surgical procedure. In this review, we searched for randomized clinical trials that compared preoperative magnesium administration with controls and included studies that assessed chills as a primary and possible outcome. change. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of preoperative magnesium in the prevention of postoperative chills. Materials and methods: This article is a systematic review that searched for all quality articles published in the Cochrane database until the end of 2020. References were checked, PubMed and Web of Science 55,555. Results: The initial search identified 3,294 publications. 64 articles were included in this study. The results showed that the frequency of colds in the group receiving intravenous, epidural and intraperitoneal magnesium was significantly reduced compared to the control group. Conclusion: Prophylactic use of magnesium can reduce the severity and number of post-anesthetic chills and other post-anesthetic symptoms.
