Evaluation of medical science staff awareness of factors causing high blood pressure and its complications in Yasouj year 2017

Introduction: Blood pressure is the force per unit area of the blood vessel wall is entered and measured in millimeters of mercury systolic and diastolic pressure, and is therefore expressed. Various risk factors that can be a precursor to hypertension, such as poor nutrition and highcalorie foods and salty, high blood pressure, family history, gender, age, BMI is increasing. Early symptoms include high blood pressure, dizziness, redness of the face, and headache, which, if not treated promptly, can damage the kidneys, eyes, or lead to stroke and stroke and ultimately cause death. The most important factors affecting high blood pressure are age, genetic background and food. In this study, we studied the factors affecting high blood pressure and its complications among staff members of Yasouj University of Medical Sciences

A Survey on Effects of Physical Activity Education Based on Trance- theoretical Model on Blood Pressure Control in Patients with High Blood Pressure

Introduction: The high prevalence of hypertension all over the world and serious side effects is a major health problem in all societies. To reduce these effects, control of blood pressure is very important. Regular physical activity is one of the most effective strategies to reduce the risk of some noncommunicable diseases such as cardiovascular. The present study aimed to determine the effect of training of physical activity based on Trans-theoretical Model for controlling blood pressure. Methods: In this semi-experimental study, 60 patients with high blood pressure were selected by sampling method and randomly divided into either control or interventional groups. The means of Data collection was multi-part questionnaire that was included demographic characteristics, stages of change questions and factors affecting the Trans-theoretical model and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire short form. Questionnaires completed for two groups and then educational intervention was done in the intervention group. After two months, questionnaires were completed for both groups again. Data were analyzed in SPSS and t-test and Chi-square were used according to the data distribution. Results: Statistical analysis didn't show a significant difference between the two groups before the education regarding their stages of change, Decisional balance, physical activity, blood pressure and processes of change (p<0.005). After education, average scores of all the above-mentioned variables increased meaningfully, in the interventional group. (p<0.005). Conclusion: Education and intervention based on Trance theoretical Model, results to physical activity behaviors promotion and reduce high blood pressure in hypertensive patients

Effects of intranasal administration of violet oil in dry eye disease

Background: Dry eye disease is a disorder of the tear film. In this study, the effect of Viola odorata L. oily extract was examined for the treatment of patients suffering from dry eye disease. Methods: A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was designed. During the trial, Schirmer's test, tear breakup time, Oxford staining and the Ocular Surface Disease Index were assessed. Overall, 105 patients with dry eye symptoms between the ages of 18 and 60 years were allocated to the violet-almond oil, almond oil and placebo (1 w/v hydroxypropyl methylcellulose solution) groups. The treatment and placebo were administered intranasally, two drops three times a day for one month. The patients were followed up for four weeks. A total of 91 patients (32, 29 and 30 in the violet-almond oil, almond oil and placebo groups, respectively) completed the study. Results: At baseline, there was no difference between the three groups in terms of demographic data and the measurement parameters. After the intervention, the results revealed that the Schirmer's score without local anaesthesia and the tear breakup time results significantly improved in the violet-almond oil group. One-way ANOVA indicated a significant improvement in the Schirmer's score, tear breakup time and Ocular Surface Disease Index of the treatment group, as compared with the other groups (p 0.05). Conclusions: This trial showed that the intranasally administered V. odorata L. oily extract enhances tear production and improves tear film stability. © 2019 Optometry Australi
