The present study was conducted to assess stress and its predictors of people living with Alzheimer's disease or other dementias' caregivers. Methods The present descriptive, analytical, cross-sectional study was conducted in December 2017-June 2018 in Isfahan, Iran. Gambogic in vivo Data were collected by interviewing 99 caregivers had at least 6 months of experience caring for a patient diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, through questionnaires developed by the researcher. A convenience sample (easy access) of caregivers was recruited from calling the home of formally diagnosed with Alzheimer's patient, that have registered in educational hospitals affiliated to Isfahan University of Medical Sciences and psychiatrists' office both paid caregivers (formal) and unpaid caregivers (family).

This dimension is essential to increase the adaptation to the disease. Therefore, this study was aimed to determine spiritual health in women with multiple sclerosis (MS) and its association with self-esteem. Methods This is a descriptive cross-sectional study, and 210 women with MS referring to Ayatollah Kashani Hospital affiliated to Isfahan University of Medical Sciences were selected using convenience sampling method. The data were collected by questionnaires of demographic characteristic questionnaire (6 items), Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale (10 items), and Ellison and Paloutzian Spiritual Well-being Questionnaire (20 items). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis at a significance level of 0.05. Results The mean and standard deviation of spiritual health (including religious health and existential health) and self-esteem in MS patients were 48.8 ± 6.80, 44.7 ± 6.70, and 3.21 ± 2.5, respectively. The results showed that 95.2% of the research units had moderate-to-high spiritual (religious and existential) health and 57.7% had high self-esteem. Pearson's correlation coefficient also showed a significant positive correlation between religious health and existential with self-esteem (r = 0.22, P = 0.03 and r = 0.24, P = 0.01, respectively). Conclusions In this study, most of the women with MS had high levels of spiritual health and self-esteem. This can be used as a coping strategy and has a protective effect against stress-induced illness and even against complications of the treatment. In addition, in some cases, it is effective in alleviating frustration in these patients.Background Hospitals in developed countries allocate itself about 40% of health-care costs and in developing countries up to 80%. In this study, researchers reviewed the related article in the field of the hospitals' performance evaluation due to the identification of common indicators used in different models with the aim of providing simple list for evaluating hospitals' performance to the researchers who are interested to these issues. Methods The databases for the search included Medline, Google Scholar, and Scopus. A search strategy leads to the extraction of 403 related articles that after the removal of inappropriate and duplicate articles, 42 studies were selected for the scoping review. Results This scoping review showed that 9 of 42 selected articles use data envelopment analysis model, 6 of them Pabon Lasso model, 3 of them balanced scorecard, 3 of them organizational excellence model, and the remaining articles used key performance indicators to evaluate hospital performance. A process approach was used to categorize the common indicators because the literature review indicated that common indicators mainly evaluate data, process, output, or impact of performance. The findings included 36 input, 39 process, 27 output, and 8 impact common indicators for evaluating performance. Discussion This scoping review of related literature indicated that despite differentiation in the time and place of past studies in the field of performance evaluation models, there are some indicators that are common in most popular performance evaluation models. These simple lists can apply for evaluation of hospitals' performance instead of complicated models.Background Women during menopause stages experience many symptoms, for which they lack enough knowledge to manage them. This study aimed to compare the effect of self-directed and support group health education on the quality of life (QOL (and self-care of postmenopausal women. Materials and methods This field trial study was carried out with three groups. One hundred and eight menopause women were selected through convenient sampling method based on the inclusion criteria from three comprehensive health centers. Health centers were randomly assigned to support (n = 36), self-directed (n = 36), and control groups (n = 36). In the self-directed group, education was provided through educational package, and the control group received routine care from the health center. The support group received education through four group sessions by trained healthy volunteers. Data were collected by menopause-specific QOL and self-care standard questionnaire. Results Immediately after the intervention, the mean scores of QOL in the self-directed group, support group, and control group were 41.
