Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) account for 76% of deaths in Iran, and this number is on the rise, parallel with global rates. Many risk factors associated NCDs are preventable; however, it first necessary to conduct observational studies identify relevant most appropriate approach controlling them. Iran a multiethnic country; therefore, 2014 Ministry Health Medical Education launched nationwide cohort study-Prospective Epidemiological Research Studies (PERSIAN)-in order prevalent among...
Considering the application of human genome variation databases in precision medicine, population-specific projects are continuously being developed. However, Middle Eastern population is underrepresented current databases. Accordingly, we established Iranome database (www.iranome.com) by performing whole exome sequencing on 800 individuals from eight major Iranian ethnic groups representing second largest East. We identified 1,575,702 variants which 308,311 were novel (19.6%). Also,...
Over the past decades prevalence of diabetes has increased in Iran and other countries. This study aimed to update prediabetes determine associated sociodemographic risk factors, as well awareness control.This is a nationally representative cross-sectional survey that included 163,770 Iranian adults aged 35-70 years, from different ethnic backgrounds, between 2014 2020. Diabetes was diagnosed at fasting blood sugar ≥ 6.99 mmol/L (126 mg/dL), or receiving glucose-lowering treatment....
The level of socioeconomic-related inequality in physical activity Iran is largely unknown. This study investigates poor-physical (PPA) among Iranian adults.A total 129,257 adult participants enrolled the PERSIAN (Prospective Epidemiological Research Studies IrAN) Cohort were included this study. Physical adults was measured using metabolic equivalent rates (METs). less than 41 METs/hour/day considered PPA. Concentration index (C) used to quantify Moreover, C decomposed identify relative...
Iran, despite its size, geographic location and past cultural influence, has largely been a blind spot for human population genetic studies. With only sparse information on the Iranian available, we pursued genome-wide characterization based 1021 samples from eleven ethnic groups. We show that Iranians, while close to neighboring populations, present distinct variation consistent with long-standing continuity, harbor high heterogeneity different levels of consanguinity, fall apart into...
Despite all recent health-related improvements, anemia remains an extensive global public health issue affecting the lives of about one-fourth world population in a geographically heterogeneous pattern. We, therefore, aimed to illustrate prevalence, severity, most common types, and major determinants among adults Khuzestan, Iran, from 2016 2019.
As a public health priority, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is associated with some factors like sleep disorders. Taking this into consideration, study aimed at investigating the relationship between duration and HRQoL in patients on hemodialysis.This cross-sectional was carried out among 176 hemodialysis who were admitted to dialysis ward 22 Bahman hospital private renal clinic Neyshabur (a city North-East Iran) 2021. Sleep measured using an Iranian version Pittsburgh Quality Index...
Obesity is considered a major growing threat to public health which could negatively affect the quality of life. The current cross-sectional study was conducted investigate population-based prevalence metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) and overweight (MHOW) associated factors in southern Iran.
Abstract In this cross-sectional population-based study, we used the baseline data of Prospective Epidemiologic Research Studies in IrAN cohort study collected Iran from 2014 to 2020. The main outcomes were prevalence hypertension and proportion awareness, treatment, control based on 2017 ACC/AHA guideline compared seventh report Joint National Committee (JNC7). Of total 163,770 participants, aged 35–70 years, 55.2% female. sex-age standardized was 22.3% (95% CI 20.6, 24.1) JNC7 36.5% (31.1,...
Background and Objective: Improper sleeping habits can affect children's sleep structure reduce the quantity quality of sleep. In this study, we aimed to investigate relationship between in children. Materials Methods: The population cross-sectional descriptive-analytical study included children aged 3-10 years who were referred department Children's Hospital Qazvin City, Iran, during 2015-2021 had undergone standard polysomnography (PSG). Iranian version Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ)...
The first large serosurvey in Iran found a SARS-CoV-2 antibody seroprevalence of 17.1% among the general population wave epidemic by April, 2020. purpose current study was to assess COVID-19 infection Iranian after third disease.This population-based cross-sectional conducted on 7411 individuals aged ≥10 years old 16 cities across 15 provinces between January and March, 2021. We randomly sampled registered electronic health record system based their national identification numbers invited...
The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) is postulated to have the highest increase in prevalence of diabetes by 2030; however, studies on epidemiology are rather limited across region, including Iran.This study was conducted between 2016 2018 among Iranian adults aged 20 65 years residing Khuzestan province, southwestern Iran. Diabetes defined as fasting blood glucose (FBG) level 126 mg/dl or higher, and/or taking antidiabetic medications, self-declared diabetes. Prediabetes FBG 100 125...
1. This study examined biological characteristics of sexual and asexual strains the parasitoid wasp, Lysiphlebus fabarum (Marshall) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae). 2. Strains were reared in different instar hosts (the black bean aphid, Aphis fabae Scopoli) under identical environmental conditions (21 °C, 65–75% RH, LD 16:8 h). 3. Results showed that second aphid is most suitable growth stage for both strains, as wasps emerged from larger, more fecund, had larger egg size. Trade‐offs between...
