<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Understanding the health consequences associated with exposure to risk factors is necessary inform public policy and practice. To systematically quantify contributions of factor exposures specific outcomes, Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2021 aims provide comprehensive estimates levels, relative risks, attributable burden disease for 88 in 204 countries territories 811 subnational locations, from 1990 2021. <h3>Methods</h3> The...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Disorders affecting the nervous system are diverse and include neurodevelopmental disorders, late-life neurodegeneration, newly emergent conditions, such as cognitive impairment following COVID-19. Previous publications from Global Burden of Disease, Injuries, Risk Factor Study estimated burden 15 neurological conditions in 2015 2016, but these analyses did not defined by International Classification Diseases (ICD)-11, or a subset cases congenital,...
Abstract Background Different mental disorders may be associated with many work-related factors to which primary health care workers (PHCWs) are exposed. The current research aims measure the rates of depression, anxiety, and stress among PHCWs, their causes in (PHC) settings. Methods An explanatory sequential mixed methods design was employed this from January 2021 2022 Tabriz, Iran’s PHC centers. First, study followed an online-based cross-sectional survey using a self-reported...
Culex pipiens, the common house mosquito, is main vector of important medical and veterinary diseases including West Nile fever. This disease a neglected mosquito-borne in Iran, where migratory resident birds act as reservoirs human horse dead-end hosts disease. The Aras River basin identified high-risk area for fever outbreaks. Chemical control stands out key method managing diseases. So, it necessary to evaluate susceptibility Cx. pipiens insecticides recommended by World Health...
Objective: To evaluate the susceptibility of Anopheles stephensi (An. stephensi) Liston, main malaria vector in southern Iran, to WHO recommended insecticides. Methods: Larvae An. were collected from three different larval habitats both urban and rural area Bandar Abbas city one Rudan county Iran. standard method was used for evaluation adult mosquito susceptibility. Bendiocarb, permethrin, lambda-cyhalothrin, deltamethrin as insecticide temephos chlorpyriphos larvicide at diagnostic dosages...
Dengue fever (DF) is increasingly recognized as one of the world's major mosquito-borne diseases and causes significant morbidity mortality in tropical subtropical countries. Appropriate timely diagnosis risk stratification for severe disease are crucial appropriate management this illness. Healthcare providers (HCPs) play a key role dengue diagnosis, prevention. The present study was conducted to determine knowledge, attitudes practices (KAP) among HCPs East Azerbaijan Province, Iran.
Abstract Anopheles stephensi is an efficient vector of malaria parasites in Iran. Despite its importance transmission, there a scarcity accurate predictive models rates development at different temperatures. A laboratory colony An. stephensi, collected from Bandar Abbas County, southern Iran, was established, and all developmental stages were maintained temperature-controlled incubators so that the water temperature set 5, 8, 10, 12.5, 14, 28, 38, 39.5, 42, 45(±0.2) °C for treatments until...
Abstract Background Anopheles stephensi , a malaria‐transmitting mosquito species, has developed resistance to various insecticides such as DDT, Dieldrin, Malathion, and synthetic pyrethroids. To combat this issue, the World Health Organization (WHO) suggests using Actellic®300CS Icon®10CS for Indoor Residual Spraying tackle pyrethroid‐resistant mosquitoes. The aim of research project was evaluate susceptibility An . certain at diagnostic concentration + intensity 5x (5XDC) assays in Iran...
After three years with no local transmission of malaria, an outbreak occurred in Iran 2022. Key malaria control methods are including indoor residual spraying (IRS), long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs), and prompt diagnosis treatment cases. Anopheles sacharovi is one the main vectors Iran. This study aimed to determine insecticides resistance status An. northwestern Iran, inform effective vector programs this region.

Background: Every year, thousands of cases and many deaths from scorpion sting are reported in tropical areas South Southwestern parts Iran. The aim this study was to identify the fauna dangerous species scorpions Roudan County, southern Methods: This descriptive conducted 10 stations Hormozgan Province. Scorpion sampling done randomly by searching for their shelter digging out nests during day, with use UV light night February 2013 October 2014. Data stings were obtained health center...
Objective: To determine the significance of temperature, rainfall and humidity in seasonal abundance Anopheles stephensi southern Iran.Methods: Data on monthly larvae adults were gathered from earlier studies conducted between 2002 2019 malaria prone areas southeastern Iran. Climatic data for studied counties obtained climatology stations. Generalized estimating equations method was used cluster correlation each study site different years.Results: A significant relationship found density...
Abstract Background: Anopheles stephensi , an invasive malaria vector, has developed resistance to several commonly used insecticides, including DDT, Dieldrin, Malathion, and synthetic pyrethroids. In response this challenge, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommended use of Actellic ® 300CS Icon 10CS for Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS) control pyrethroid-resistant mosquitoes. This study aimed assess current susceptibility status An. Diagnostic Concentration (DC) some insecticides in...
<title>Abstract</title> Background Unfortunately, the resurgence of malaria occurred in Iran after three years free conditions, from 2022. Efforts to control through surveillance, diagnosis, treatment and prevention measures have shown progress, but climate change may pose challenges these efforts, potentially increasing epidemic potential susceptible regions. The research look for predict current future geographical range suitability <italic>Anopheles stephensi</italic> mosquitoes southern...
Abstract Background The study aims to determine the host preference for blood feeding among potential hosts of Anopheles stephensi in Iran, using Multiplex‐PCR method. An. is primary malaria vector urban areas South Asia and Middle East, including southern where approximately 30.21% cases are urban. This trend has become more evident during recent outbreaks driven by infections Plasmodium falciparum , vivax as well mixed infections. Hormozgan province, one most endemic was selected its...
Background: Due to the increasing prevalence of covid-19, World Health Organization declared on 30 January 2020, spread new coronavirus as a 6th public health emergency international concern. Objectives: To assess extent disease in pediatric population our region, we conducted clinical screening for Covid-19 and evaluated factors that affected its manifestation children. Methods: In this study, 474761 children under 19 years age were screened two phases. first phase, 680 cases considered...
It is of utmost importance to identify populations with an elevated risk for COVID-19 and the factors influencing its outcomes. The present study aimed investigate affecting mortality length stay (LOS) among patients in hospitals East Azerbaijan province, Iran, during 15 months this pandemic.The followed a retrospective cohort design.This was conducted using data integrated syndromic surveillance system (ISSS) on admitted from February 21, 2020, April 11, 2021. association between variables...
Abstract Background: Flies are of medical importance and cause problems by transmitting mechanically various pathogens to human animals myiasis. This study was performed determine the diversity abundance medically important flies in Tabriz city, Northwest Iran. Methods: Adult their larvae trapping conducted on a monthly basis from July October 2021. Then, trapped were identified morphologically using valid identification keys. Simpson index, Shannon Jackknife Procedure, Margalef Menhinick...
Background: Aquatic insects include groups of arthropods which at least one step their life happens in water. Some these play an important role the transmission various diseases to human and animals. Because there is a little information about fauna aquatic Iran, this study was aimed collect identify northwestern Iran.
