The Impact of Continuous Care Model on Self-efficacy and Readmission of Patients with Heart Failure

Pages 1-14

https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.21630224

Sara Hosseinpoor, Rana Mohammad Yousef

Abstract Background: Heart failure (HF) is a chronic, progressive condition with high prevalence and mortality rates worldwide. Despite advances in medical management, patients with HF face significant challenges in self-care, leading to poor clinical outcomes and frequent hospital readmissions. Adherence to self-care behaviors is critical for reducing hospital readmissions, yet many patients struggle with maintaining these behaviors due to insufficient education and follow-up.

Objective: This study examined the impact of the Continuous Care Model (CCM) on self-efficacy and hospital readmission among patients hospitalized with HF.

Methods: This quasi-experimental study conducted on 70 patients with HF visiting two teaching hospitals in southeastern Iran in 2021. Patients were selected using convenience sampling and randomly assigned to two groups: control (n=35) receiving routine care and intervention (n=35) receiving CCM. The intervention consisted of six individual training sessions during hospitalization, six sessions post-discharge, and weekly telephone follow-up until the twelfth week. Data collected using a demographic form, readmission assessment, and Sullivan's Cardiac Self-Efficacy Scale. Analysis was performed using SPSS version 22 with chi-square, independent and paired samples t-tests, and ANCOVA at P < 0.05 significance level.

Results: ANCOVA revealed significantly higher self-efficacy scores in the intervention group after implementing CCM (P = 0.001). Independent t-test results showed that readmission frequencies in the control group (1.03 ± 1.01) were significantly higher than in the intervention group (0.34 ± 0.68) (P = 0.001).

Conclusion: The Continuous Care Model significantly improved self-efficacy and reduced hospital readmission frequency among patients with HF. Given its ease of implementation, applicability, and low cost, healthcare authorities recommended to develop policies for implementing CCM for HF patients.

Abstract Introduction: Lumpectomy is a standard breast-conserving procedure, yet acute postoperative complications may delay recovery and adjuvant treatment. Beyond clinical risk factors, tumor biology may influence wound healing and inflammatory responses. This study aimed to evaluate the association between progesterone receptor expression and the incidence of acute postoperative complications following lumpectomy.

Material and methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at Tabriz University of Medical Sciences in 2025 on 54 women undergoing lumpectomy, with sample size estimated using the Cochran formula and participants enrolled by convenience sampling. Progesterone receptor expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry on surgical specimens, and its association with acute postoperative complications was analyzed alongside demographic, clinical, pathological, and perioperative variables using appropriate statistical tests.

Results: Results summary: Among 54 patients undergoing lumpectomy, PR-negative status was associated with poorer early postoperative outcomes. Compared with PR-positive patients, PR-negative patients had higher postoperative VAS scores (4.06 ± 1.43 vs. 3.14 ± 1.21; p = 0.017), more acute complications (50.00% vs. 22.22%; p = 0.037), and more unplanned visits (33.33% vs. 11.11%; p = 0.048). PR negativity independently predicted complications after adjustment (OR = 3.84; p = 0.039).

Conclusion: PR-negative status was associated with a higher risk of acute postoperative complications after lumpectomy. Despite broadly comparable operative variables, PR-negative patients experienced greater postoperative morbidity and more unplanned visits, suggesting that receptor status may help identify patients requiring closer early postoperative monitoring.

Abstract Introduction: Oral squamous cell carcinoma is a biologically aggressive malignancy in which molecular alterations may extend beyond visible tumor tissue into surgical margins. Long non-coding RNAs, particularly LNC-NORAD, may influence genomic stability, stress responses, and tumor progression. This study aimed to assess LNC-NORAD expression changes in tumor and surgical margin samples of OSCC.

Material and methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at Tabriz University of Medical Sciences in 2024. Using convenience sampling, 100 specimens comprising 50 oral squamous cell carcinoma tissues and 50 matched healthy surgical margins were collected from 50 patients. LNC-NORAD expression was quantified by real-time PCR and evaluated alongside age, sex, smoking status, tumor site and size, histological grade, invasion characteristics, TNM stage, lymph node involvement, and margin status.

Results: LNC-NORAD expression was significantly higher in OSCC tumor tissues than in matched healthy surgical margins (3.18 ± 1.07 vs. 1.24 ± 0.43; P<0.001). Increased tumoral expression was associated with smoking, larger tumor size, poorer histological differentiation, deeper invasion, perineural invasion, advanced TNM stage, and lymph node metastasis. By contrast, no significant associations were observed with sex, anatomical tumor site, or lymphovascular invasion.

Conclusion: LNC-NORAD is markedly upregulated in OSCC tissues compared with matched surgical margins and is closely associated with several indicators of tumor aggressiveness. These findings suggest that this long non-coding RNA may serve as a useful molecular marker for identifying biologically advanced and clinically high-risk oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Pathologic Evaluation of the Diagnostic Value of Preoperative CRP in Predicting Acute Inflammation Following Femoral Implant Placement

Pages 34-43

https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.21433505

Parisa Mehrasa, Parham Maroufi

Abstract Introduction: Femoral implant surgery is frequently complicated by early inflammatory reactions that may be difficult to distinguish from normal postoperative responses. Because C-reactive protein reflects systemic inflammatory activity, preoperative measurement may help identify patients at greater risk of acute pathologic inflammation after surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of preoperative CRP in predicting acute inflammation following femoral implant placement.

Material and methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at Shahid Madani Hospital in Tabriz, Iran. Using Cochran’s formula, the sample size was estimated at 73 patients, who were enrolled through convenience sampling. Data were extracted from medical records on demographic characteristics, comorbidities, preoperative CRP and other laboratory findings, operative details, and early postoperative inflammatory outcomes to assess the diagnostic value of preoperative CRP.

Results: Among 73 patients, acute postoperative inflammation occurred in 21.9%. Affected patients had higher preoperative CRP (24.18 vs 12.32 mg/L, P < 0.001), ESR (34.50 vs 25.98 mm/h, P = 0.009), and WBC (9.96 vs 8.40 x10³/muL, P = 0.015), but lower hemoglobin (11.28 vs 12.34 g/dL, P = 0.021) and albumin (3.29 vs 3.70 g/dL, P = 0.003). CRP showed good diagnostic performance (AUC = 0.812, sensitivity 78.9%, specificity 73.6%, NPV 95.1%).

Conclusion: Preoperative CRP appears to be a clinically useful marker for identifying patients at risk of acute inflammation after femoral implant placement. Its strong discriminatory capacity and high negative predictive value suggest particular value in perioperative risk stratification, especially when interpreted alongside comorbidity burden, nutritional status, and operative complexity.

The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Optimizing Oil Exploration and Production

The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Optimizing Oil Exploration and Production

Volume 3, Issue 5, Autumn 2024, Pages 176-190

Hamid Reza Hanif

Abstract Today, artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a vital tool and a driver of innovation in the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries. The use of AI in oil and gas exploration has transformed the capabilities of the industry and made the search for new reserves more efficient and reliable. AI can identify areas with high potential for oil and gas exploration by analyzing geological and geophysical data. These analyses can increase the accuracy and speed of exploration processes and reduce the costs associated with these processes. AI can analyze and summarize large and complex data and provide valuable information for strategic decision-making. AI and machine learning in the oil and gas industry are revolutionizing the exploration process by analyzing vast datasets, including seismic surveys, well logs, satellite imagery, and geological data. Machine learning algorithms can identify patterns and anomalies in this data, helping geologists more effectively identify potential oil reservoirs. For example, consider a scenario in which an exploration team is looking to identify offshore drilling sites. Rather than relying on traditional geological methods, the team is applying AI applications to the oil and gas industry. The AI system ingests data from multiple sources and performs complex analysis to identify areas most likely to contain oil reserves. This focused approach reduces exploration time and costs and minimizes environmental impact by drilling only in areas with high potential. AI also enhances the interpretation of seismic data, a critical aspect of oil exploration.

Abstract The present study examined the iodine diet in patients with hyperthyroidism. Hyperthyroidism is a serious disease that occurs due to dysfunction of the thyroid gland and increased production of thyroid hormone. This disease is usually treated with ant thyroid drugs and, if necessary, surgery. However, a healthy diet can also have a positive effect on improving the health of patients and their condition. For this reason, experts usually recommend that patients with hyperthyroidism follow a diet suitable for hyperthyroidism, along with other treatment options. The amount of radioactive iodine used to control thyroid diseases can vary depending on the individual's disease, so that in some diseases the dose can be without side effects. A proper diet can take steps to eliminate substances that aggravate the symptoms of hyperthyroidism and help improve the symptoms of the disease. A major problem in the diet of people with hyperthyroidism is controlling the amount of iodine intake. In some cases, doctors believe that the presence of excessive amounts of iodine can be effective in cases of hyperthyroidism, and therefore controlling the amount of iodine in the diet can help relieve the symptoms of the disease. The results showed that hyperthyroidism can cause obvious weight loss and make it difficult to gain weight. This is because the body's metabolism increases in this disease. The obvious connection between diet and hyperthyroidism is the presence of iodine in the diet. There are many reasons for the belief that iodine can increase the likelihood of developing hyperthyroidism. On the other hand, Graves' disease has an interesting connection with gluten. Diet can be useful for minimizing the damage caused by hyperthyroidism, especially brittle bones.

Abstract The global economic landscape is constantly changing and has cast a shadow over the global economy. Just this year (2024), presidential elections, military conflicts, and escalation of tensions have made understanding geopolitical risks especially important for forex traders. Supply chain dynamics refers to various factors and interactions that affect the supply of goods, services, information and financial affairs in a supply chain network. Factors that can affect supply chain dynamics include: changes in consumer demand, market trends, developments technological, regulatory requirements, economic conditions, geopolitical events and disruptions such as natural disasters or pandemics, understanding supply chain dynamics for organizations to effectively manage supply chains, optimize operations, reduce Risks and adaptation to changing market conditions are very important. Both of these conflicts could potentially disrupt the global supply of oil and gas in 2024, and hence geopolitical and supply chain issues are the hot topics of 2024 in the energy field. According to Global Data, a leading data and analytics company, it is important for the oil and gas industry to assess the impact of these issues as they chart their growth plans. Global Data’s thematic report, entitled Top 20 oil and gas issues in 2024, includes challenges that can have a significant impact on oil and gas production and supply operations in 2024. Concerns related to the security of energy supply are expected to be the main challenge for the oil and gas business in 2024.

Risk Management in EPC Projects

Risk Management in EPC Projects

Volume 3, Issue 5, Autumn 2024, Pages 191-201

Amir Samimi

Abstract In this article, while reviewing the "EPC" contracts and the different stages of risk management according to the "PMBOK" standard, a general proposed model for this type of contract is presented, in which the necessity of planning and managing risk in the stages before winning the tender and after winning and signing the contract has been examined and considered. In recent years, the construction market has moved towards contracts in which the final amount and the time of completion of the work are guaranteed. Risk management knowledge, as a subset of project management knowledge, has gradually become a source of influence with such developments. The "PMBOK" standard has divided the risk management process into 6 stages: risk planning, risk identification, qualitative risk analysis, quantitative risk analysis, risk response and risk control. The proposed model in this research is that the contractor must implement stages 1 to 4 of risk management before bidding and after signing the contract, perform the 6 mentioned stages. In this model, the results of the pre-bid risk management review can be used as input to the post-contract phase. The six risk management phases operate like a cycle and are similar to a trial and error method. Initially, the work phases begin with limited parameters. As the project progresses and more details of the work are identified, the impact of risks on more activities must be considered and more risks become apparent, so risk management needs to plan, identify, analyze, respond to, and control new risks over a specific period of time. Methods were also proposed and reviewed for the risk planning and risk identification phases, so that EPC contractors can more easily review and manage risks in these types of contracts.

Abstract Genetic technologies in personalized medicine have revolutionized the management of anticoagulant therapy. Despite their vital role in preventing blood clots, these drugs pose numerous challenges in dose adjustment and side effect management due to the varying responses of patients. Genetic analysis has enabled the provision of personalized, safer, and more effective therapy by identifying genetic differences in related genes such as CYP2C9 and VKORC1. By precisely adjusting the dose, reducing side effects, accelerating the treatment process, and reducing costs, this technology not only improves the quality of life of patients but also paves the way for new standards in healthcare. However, challenges such as high costs, limited access, and privacy issues require attention and resolution. In this approach, the genome of the individual in question is compared with reference genomes, and based on the information obtained, the individual can be treated in an appropriate and specific way. In fact, the genetic nature of the individual determines the treatment strategy. One aspect of personalized medicine is the use of pharmacogenomics. In this method, a more appropriate and informed drug is provided by using and knowing the sequence of an individual's genome. In conventional medicine, drugs are often prescribed with the idea that the effect of the drug is the same for everyone, but in fact this is not the case and each person responds differently to the drug depending on the nature of their genome sequence. Therefore, various factors must be taken into account. For example, depending on these sequences, side effects, the required amount of drug, the likelihood of successful treatment, and the prognosis of the disease will all be unique to each individual.
