Worldwide, both the incidence and death rates of pancreatic cancer are increasing. Evaluation burden its global, regional, national patterns is crucial to policy making better resource allocation for controlling risk factors, developing early detection methods, providing faster more effective treatments.Vital registration, vital registration sample, registry data were used generate mortality, incidence, disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) estimates. We comparative assessment framework...
Since the first official report of SARS-CoV-2 infection in Iran on 19 February 2020, our country has been one worst affected countries by COVID-19 epidemic Middle East. In addition to demographic and clinical characteristics, number hospitalized cases deaths is an important factor for evidence-based decision-making disease control preparing healthcare system face future challenges COVID-19. Therefore, this cohort study was conducted determine demographics, outcomes patients Kermanshah...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common and fourth cause of death in world. The aim this study was to investigate provincial distribution incidence CRC across Iran.This epidemiologic used data from National Cancer Registry Iran Center for Disease Control Prevention Ministry Health Medical Education Iran. average annual age-standardized rate (ASR) calculated each province.We found that adenocarcinoma (not otherwise specified) histological subtype males females, accounting 81.91...
Background Following the epidemiologic and demographic transition, non-communicable disease mortality is leading cause of death in Iran. Projecting trend can provide valuable tools for policy makers planners. In this article, we have estimated during 2001–2015 projected it until 2030 at national subnational levels Methods The data employed was gathered from Iranian registration system using Spatio-temporal model, trends 4 major categories diseases (cancers, cardiovascular diseases, asthma...
Background and Objectives: During the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccination was crucial in preventing spread of SARS-CoV-2 saving numerous lives. Countries implementing programs have reported significant reductions cases, ICU admissions, COVID-19-related deaths. This study aimed to evaluate effectiveness vaccines used Hamadan province, explicitly focusing on their impact hospitalization death caused by COVID-19. Methods: A test-negative case-control design (TND) conducted involving patients aged 12...
Background Breast cancer (BC) is the second most common in world. This study aimed to investigate burden of BC due some risk factors Middle East and North Africa (MENA) countries from 1990 2019. Methods a secondary analysis based on Global Burden Disease 2019 data. In this study, we used data for disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) mortality MENA countries. Also, presented DALYs attributed diabetes, smoking passive among women with BC. Results The age-standardised DALY increased slowly...
Given the limited evidence on side effects of AZD1222 booster in individuals previously vaccinated with Sinopharm BBIBP-CorV, we conducted a cohort event monitoring study to capture adverse events those receiving doses (first or second) after BBIBP-CorV vaccination Iran. This active COVID-19 vaccine safety surveillance was centers across 12 provinces The population included who had received two and either first second dose. Each participant followed for 13 weeks their A total 28,742...
Background Cancer is a rapidly increasing global problem, and one of the leading causes burden mortality. This study aims to compare cancer in Iran between year 1990 2019. Methods We used Global Burden Disease data on from 2019 by province, year, age group, sex. then estimated trend standardized mortality Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) cancers Age pattern geographical variation ranking were assessed at national sub-national levels Results The rate decreased 102 (95% UI: 91, 111) 96...
Abstract This study aims to investigate the trends and project major risk factors of Non-communicable Diseases (NCDs) in Iran. We obtained trend prevalence main related NCDs 30 70-year-old-individuals. The data were extracted from WHO STEP wise approach factor surveillance (STEPS) survey. Also,the previous studies conducted at national subnational levels 2001 2016 employed. was projected by 2030 using Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) Spatio-temporal model stratified sex province. percent...
