“…ber 31, 2014, transfusion incidence, when stratified by age, was the same in male and female inpatients (16). In a Zim-babwe study, 63.2% of transfusion recipients were female of whom, 65.3% were in the reproductive age group, (15 -49 years) (17). The blood consumption may vary with age, sex, and age-related diseases and in developed countries, men receive blood transfusion more than women (15,18).…”

Background: Predicting future blood requirements and optimizing current transfusion practices require information on blood product utilization. Objectives: The aims of this study was to determine the utilization patterns of blood components in Zahedan, the capital city of Sistan and Balouchestan province in southeastern Iran. Methods: This descriptive study was conducted from March to August 2015. Blood bank data were collected from seven hospitals. Moreover, the archived blood request forms were studied for the demographic data of blood receivers. Results: Overall, 13,312 blood request forms (30,418 requested blood units) were studied. The mean age of the recipients was 24.3 ± 20 year and 38.9% of them were of the O blood group, followed by B (28.8%). Packed cell (PC) units were the most commonly used products (36.7%), followed by leuko-reduced red cells (25.4%), fresh frozen plasma (FFP) (16.8%), platelets (15.2%), cryoprecipitate (3.2%), and washed red cells (2.5%). The major users of blood components were the thalassemia wards (38.7%). Among the blood components, the highest wastage was related to PC with 32.3%, followed by FFP with 22.5%. The highest rate of wastage was recorded in the surgery (1,081 units) and emergency (784 units) wards for PC products and CCUs (376 units) and ICUs (167 units) for FFP products. Conclusions: A high rate of blood wastage was observed in the use of PC and FFP units. Increased awareness of physicians and medical students leads to proper blood consumption in the future. The Hospital Blood Transfusion Committee should review blood transfusion guidelines to optimize blood consumption.

“…In the study of Meher et al (23), isometric exercise was used, while in the present study the aerobic trainings were used so that the results of the study by Meher et al, is incontrast with the present study (23). It is suggested that most QT variations, due to exercise result from heart rate and less of them are due to other factors (24). Therefore, QT variations are due to variable and difficult exercises.…”

Background:The effect of exercises on the heart has been widely studied. Music can stimulate emotions as well as changes in cardiac activity. Objectives: The present research aimed to investigate the effect of aerobic training and music on the electrical activity of the heart in non-athletic men. Methods: A total of 32 non-athletic men were selected and divided into four groups (n = 8) including; (1) aerobic exercises, (2) music without aerobic exercises, (3) aerobic exercise with music, and (4) control subjects. Groups 1 and 3 only performed aerobic exercises for eight weeks, groups 2 and 3 listened to music for eight weeks, and group 4 only had their daily activities during this period. At the beginning of the study and at the end of the eighth week, the subjects' electrocardiogram (ECG) was measured. To analyze the findings, paired sample t-test and two-way ANOVA were used at a significance level of 0.05. Results:Aerobic training had a significant effect on QRS wave increase (P ≤ 0.05). Music had a significant effect on heart rate (HR) reduction and QRS wave enhancement (P ≤ 0.05). Aerobic exercise along with music had significant interactive effects on HR reduction and QRS wave enhancement (P ≤ 0.05). However, aerobic training had no significant effect on HR (P ≥ 0.05). Aerobic exercise and music had a significant effect on PQ interval, QT interval, QTc, and P wave (P ≥ 0.05). Furthermore, aerobic exercise with music had no interactive effects on PQ interval, QT interval, QTc, and P wave (P ≥ 0.05). Conclusions:According to the results of the study, aerobic exercise with music can help improve some cardiac parameters of nonathletic men.

“…It was reported by 8.5% and 4.8% of people all over Canada and the United States, respectively (13,22). On the other hand, a study in Israeli on 981 subjects showed an FD prevalence of 0.6% (23). The prevalence of FD was reported as 2% in 1,023 gastroenterology outpatients in the Iranian popu- lation (24).…”

Background: Different procedures can be used to develop predictive models for medical data with binary response. In this study, we aimed to probe the process of developing common predictive models, including decision tree (DT) and logistic regression (LR). Also, we investigated how to set the model parameters, how to develop accurate models efficiently, and how to determine the prediction efficiency. Objectives: The main purpose of this study was to find the prevalence and risk factors associated with functional dyspepsia (FD) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GRED) in a sample of the Iranian population. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Tehran, from May 2016 to December 2017, on 18,180 participants who were selected randomly and interviewed using a reliable questionnaire. Results: The areas under the ROC curve (AUC) of DT and LR were 0.93 and 0.94 for GERD and 0.98 and 0.95 for FD, respectively. Generally, 63.8% and 37.2% of the participants had FD and GRED, respectively. The results of multiple logistic regression analysis showed that men had a higher risk of FD than women. The prevalence of FD increased with increasing age. Conclusions: This study showed a low rate of FD and GERD among urban people of Tehran. Also, the prediction results of both models were approximately similar. Therefore, when we deal with multiple independent variables and a binary response variable in data from a large sample, more statistical techniques and strategies should be considered in developing a prediction model.
